  • The Korean government has a new system for charging patient care for patients in hospital, on hold for the present(9 / 1995) but to start implementation in certain areas of patient care next year. From the latter half of next year the Ministry of Health and Welfare would like to start demonstration projects for hospitals who want to start using DRGs for frequently seen medical diagnosis and for patients with a course that is predictable and for whom non-insurance costs are minimal : such as the patient who has a delivery, cesarean deliveries, cataract surgery, tonsillectomy or an appendectomy, and apply the DRG system of payment for hospital care for these patients. The purpose of this study was to establish a recording system to give effective home health care to postpartum women and their newborns. Recently the government announced a DRG system to apply to postpartum women for pilot purposes starting next year. This gives impetus to the need to develop home care records that will allow for systematic recording and provide continuity and consistency in care across all health professionals and with in-depth communication between the professions to assure high quality care. There has been a rise in medical costs and a shortage of patient bed space in hospitals, particularly since the introduction of national medical insurance. The study focused on developing client selection criteria, a primary assessment tool, progress notes and nursing diagnoses applicable to postpartum and newborn clients. Selection criteria for home health care, assessment tool content, nurses progress notes and diagnoses were developed through a review of the literature, advice from professionals who are expert in home health care and actual practice in the use of recording tools through workshops. The recommendations based on the research results are as follows : 1) Replication and application of these tools is needed to test the validity of the tools 2) In order to have systematic nursing records standardization of records has to be done after nurses have had experience using them. 3) Reliability and validity of the tools has to be established through applicability to actual care situation.

  • 맹자의 왕도정치의 핵심은 국민의 생활안정을 추구하는 보민(保民)과 교육을 통한 인격적 성숙에 이르는 교화(敎化)이다. 맹자의 보민론(保民論)이란 왕이 된 자가 백성을 보호하고 소득을 보장하여 삶의 안정을 도모해야 한다는 일종의 복지이론을 말한다. 그의 보민론의 보다 세부적이고 구체적인 논의는 항산론(恒産論), 사궁진휼론(四窮賑恤論), 기근구제론(饑饉救濟論)이라고 할 수 있다. 첫째, 항산론은 백성의 삶에 필수불가결한 생업 제정과 가족 부양, 기근 탈피에 대한 논의로서 오늘날의 소득보장 이론에 가깝다고 할 수 있다. 둘째, 궁핍한 자에 대한 사궁진휼은 환과고독(鰥寡孤獨)을 보호하고 그들을 보살펴야 한다는 주장으로 공공부조 및 사회복지서비스 제도라든가 그밖의 관련제도로서 보살피는 것과 유사하다고 할 것이다. 셋째, 맹자의 이재민에 대한 기근구제론은 국가에서 한해, 풍해, 수해, 화재 등 각종 비상재해가 발생했을 때 공적자금을 활용하여 백성의 생존권 보호 차원에서 긴급히 재해를 구호해야 한다는 주장이다. 이것은 오늘날 국가의 공공부조로서 긴급복지지원제도에 의한 지원이나 사회복지관련법상으로는 재해구호법 등과 맥을 같이하고 있는 주장이다. 이로써 보면 맹자의 보민론은 소득보장으로서의 공공부조나 사회복지서비스 제공 등과 같은 사회보장론의 성격을 띤다고 할 수 있을 것이다.

  • The role of the neonatal nurse specialist has been well established over the past decade and now reform in 21st century. Neonatal nurse specialists responsibilities in caring for critically and long-term chronically ill infants and their families are very important. Neonatal nurse specialists have a two fold responsibility in caring for these infants. First, through acquiring advanced practice education in complex neonatal care and diagnostic skills, neonatal nurse specialists meet the physiologic needs of the infant. Second, neonatal nurse specialists provide a more holistic approach to their care through evaluating the family in treatment plans and involving the family in discharge planning for the infant. In some institutions, neonatal nurse specialists are directly involved in institutional and/or home follow-up care and case management also. It is the neonatal nurse specialists responsibility to function collaboratively with the multidisciplinary team in managing critically or chronically ill infants from admission to discharge. The role of the neonatal nurse specialist case manager can be described as one that focuses on individualized care of the infant, while providing continuity of care to both the infant and family. The neonatal nurse specialist's role will vary depending on the neonatal intensive care unit(NICU). Therefore, the multidisciplinary collaborative approach to long-term management of infants in the NICU is extremely important to provide successful transition to home or to long-term rehabilitative care facilities because care for the chronically ill infant is complex and multifaceted. I suggest the role of neonatal nurse specialist in 21st century are as follows. 1. Diagnostic/patient assessment 2. Management of patient health/illness 3. Administering/monitoring therapeutic interventions and regimens 4. Monitoring/ensuring quality of health care practices 5. Organization and work role 6. Helping role 7. Teaching/coaching role 8. Management of rapidly changing situations 9. Consulting role The advanced practice nursing model of care delivered by neonatal nurse specialist's in the NICU incorporates medical and nursing role functions and emphasizes holism, caring, and a health perspective for critically and chronically ill neonates and their families.

  • Purpose: This study sought to develop a scale to evaluate patient-centered healthcare services at hospitals and verify its reliability and validity. Methods: We conducted a literature review and interviewed medical personnel and practitioners in medical institutions. We also conducted a content validation and preliminary survey of experts, including 40 preliminary items. We conducted the main survey among 240 medical institution workers to assess the validity and reliability of the preliminary measurement tool. Results: The validity and reliability of the scale were assessed by 29 items underlying six factors: ease of communication, continuity and extension of the hospital's role, stable environment, emotional support, respect for patients' values, and offer of information. Cronbach's α of the whole tool was .91, while the value of each factor ranged from .82 to .74, thereby verifying its reliability. Conclusion: The patient-centered healthcare services scale was identified as a tool appropriate for healthcare professionals. This tool will be useful in a diverse range of research on the development of educational programs for patient-centered healthcare services and the promotion of patient-centered causes.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to describe how nurses in neurological intensive care units (ICU) perceive their roles about patient transfer and liaison. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted using a questionnaire developed for the study. Data were collected from a convenience sample of 115 nurses working in the neurological intensive care units ofsix university hospitals. Data were analyzed using SPSS software (version 15.0). Results: Staff nurses were mainly in charge of patient transfer, and the awareness about its importance was significantly related with the burden about the practice of patient transfer (p<.001). Patient liaison was mainly conducted by staff nurses as well. Liaison practice wassuggested to be started from the ICU at the time of transfer; the suggested time for completion of liaison service and evaluation was when patients were adjusted to the transferred ward. Preparing job descriptions and increasing nursing staffing for patient liasion service were strongly recommended. Conclusion: The results suggest that the ICU nurses' burden in relation to patient transfer is commensurate with their awareness about itsimportance. To improve the continuity of care from ICU to transferred ward, it isrequired to reduce the burden about patient transfer and improve perceptions about patient liaison.

  • The growth of using smartphone and tablet pc has enabled variety kinds of realtime applications. In these applications, the data which we called data stream is multidimensional, continuous, rapid, and time-varying. However the traditional Database Management System (DBMS) suffers from processing the real time and complex application, in this paper we proposed the framework for CCR Data Stream Server's design and implementation that compiled with Data Stream Database Management System (DSMS) and DBMS in EMR system. The system enables users not only to query stored CCR information from DBMS, but also to execute continues query for the real-time CCR Data Stream.

  • Purpose: This study was to systematically review the contents and effects of nurse-led transitional care programs for discharged patients from hospital to home. Methods: Randomized controlled trials published between 2005 and 2015 were searched in Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane(Central Register of Controlled Trials) and CINAHL. Data were analyzed using Cochrane Review Manager(Revman) software 5.3. Results: Nine studies were selected and analyzed. Patient assessment, education and discharge planning were included in pre-discharge phase. Referring, communication and care planning were performed by nurses in transition phase. Home and phone visits, monitoring and multidisciplinary advices were included in post-discharge phase. Various outcome measures such as hospital utilization(30 days readmission and emergency department visit), quality of life, and cost were used to identify effectiveness of nurse-led transitional care programs. 30 days readmission(OR=.73, 95% CI 0.54, 0.98; p=.03) and emergency department visit(OR=.67, 95% CI 0.50, 0.88; p=.005) were statistically significant in meta-analysis. However, participant blinding was not done in seven studies which put at the risk of performance bias. Conclusion: The results indicated that nurse-led transitional care program is effective in reducing unnecessary hospital utilization. Nevertheless, small sample size and risk at performance bias are the limitation of this study. Thus, we suggest that well-designed randomized controlled trials need to be conducted.

  • Background: Computed tomography (CT) is one of the most efficient diagnostic methods for stroke patients. The number of CT scanners in South Korea, however, is higher than in other countries, and may cause the overuse of this tool in healthcare. We aim to study the relationship between using CT and various patient and hospital characteristics among patients with cerebral infarction. Methods: We analyzed nationwide health insurance claims data for patients due to cerebral infarction during the second half of 2013 for up to 3 months. We performed multilevel analysis, including both inpatient and hospital-level variables, to determine how factors affect CT spending and utilization. Results: The data used in our study consisted of 17,046 hospitalizations at 583 hospitals. Inpatients who visited more than one hospital had higher CT utilization numbers and cost (number: ${\geq}3$: ${\beta}$ hospitals, 2.27; p < 0.05; 2 hospitals: ${\beta}$, 0.70; p < 0.05; cost: ${\geq}3$ hospitals: ${\beta}$, 251,108; p < 0.05; 2 hospitals: ${\beta}$, 77,299; p < 0.05). People who visited a general hospital had higher numbers and cost of CT utilization than people who visited a smaller hospital. Conclusion: Increased sharing of records and improved continuity of care between hospitals are needed to help curb the overuse of CT.

  • 목적: 상용치료원(usual source of care)은 아프거나 건강문제에 대한 조언이 필요할 때 주로 방문하는 특정 개인의원, 보건소, 혹은 기타 장소로, 상용치료원 보유는 예방서비스를 제공을 더 받게 되며, 보건의료에 대한 전반적인 만족도가 높고, 입원율을 감소시키며 의료급여자의 의료비를 감소시킬 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 당뇨병을 보유하고 있는 20세 이상을 대상으로 상용치료원 보유 여부에 따른 대상자의 현황을 파악하고, 의료이용 횟수 및 의료비의 차이와 이에 영향을 미치는 특성을 분석하였다. 방법: 이 연구는 제7차 한국의료패널 자료를 이용하였다. 상용치료원 보유여부에 따른 의료이용 횟수와 의료비를 비교하기 위해 분산분석을 실시하였으며, 상용치료원 유형에 따른 의료이용 횟수와 의료비용에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하기 위해 Tobit 분석을 수행하였다. 결과: Tobit 분석결과, 상용치료원을 보유한 경우 보유하지 않은 경우보다 외래의료비는 증가했으나 입원의료비는 감소하였다. 상용치료원을 보유한 경우 보유하지 않은 경우보다 외래이용횟수와 입원횟수가 증가했으나 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 함의: 지속적이고 포괄적인 의료서비스가 제공되는 상용치료원을 당뇨병 환자들이 보유하게 되면, 외래 예방서비스의 이용을 통해 장기적으로 입원의료비의 감소를 기대할 수 있을 것이다.
