  • The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

  • 세계적으로 전파력과 병원성이 높은 신종인플루엔자, 조류독감 등과 같은 전염병이 증가하고 있다. 전염병이란 특정 병원체(pathogen)로 인하여 발생하는 질병으로 감염된 사람으로부터 감수성이 있는 숙주(사람)에게 감염되는 질환을 의미한다. 전염병의 병원체는 세균, 스피로헤타, 리케차, 바이러스, 진균, 기생충 등이 있으며, 호흡기계 질환, 위장관 질환, 간질환, 급성 열성 질환 등을 일으킨다. 전파 방법은 식품이나 식수, 곤충 매개, 호흡에 의한 병원체의 흡입, 다른 사람과의 접촉 등 다양한 경로를 통해 발생한다. 전 세계의 대부분 국가들은 전염병의 전파를 예측하고 대비하기 위해서 수학적 모델을 사용하고 있다. 하지만 과거와 달리 현대 사회는 지상과 지하 교통수단의 발달로 전염병의 전파 속도가 매우 복잡하고 빨라졌기 때문에 우리는 이를 예방하기 위한 대책 마련의 시간이 부족하다. 그러므로 전염병의 확산을 막기 위해서는 전염병의 전파 경로를 예측할 수 있는 시스템이 필요하다. 우리는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 전염병의 실시간 감시 및 관리를 위한 전염병의 감염 경로 추적 및 예측이 가능한 통합정보 시스템을 구현하였다. 이 논문에서는 전염병의 전파경로 예측에 관한 부분을 다루며, 이 시스템은 기존의 수학적 모델인 Susceptible - Infectious - Recovered (SIR) 모델을 기반으로 하였다. 이 모델의 특징은 교통수단인 버스, 기차, 승용차, 비행기를 포함시킴으로써, 도시내 뿐만 아니라 도시간의 교통수단을 이용한 이동으로 사람간의 접촉을 표현할 수 있다. 그리고 한국의 지리적 특성에 맞도록 실제 자료를 수정하였기 때문에 한국의 현실을 잘 반영할 수 있다. 또한 백신은 시간에 따라서 투여 지역과 양을 조절할 수 있기 때문에 사용자가 시뮬레이션을 통해서 어느 시점에서 어느 지역에 우선적으로 투여할지 백신을 컨트롤할 수 있다. 시뮬레이션은 몇가지 가정과 시나리오를 기반으로 한다. 그리고 통계청의 자료를 이용해서 인구 이동이 많은 주요 5개 도시인 서울, 인천국제공항, 강릉, 평창, 원주를 선정했다. 상기 도시들은 네트워크로 연결되어있으며 4가지의 교통수단들만 이용하여 전파된다고 가정하였다. 교통량은 국가통계포털에서 일일 교통량 자료를 입수하였으며, 각도시의 인구수는 통계청에서 통계자료를 입수하였다. 그리고 질병관리본부에서는 신종인플루엔자 A의 자료를 입수하였으며, 항공포털시스템에서는 항공 통계자료를 입수하였다. 이처럼 일일 교통량, 인구 통계, 신종인플루엔자 A 그리고 항공 통계자료는 한국의 지리적 특성에 맞도록 수정하여 현실에 가까운 가정과 시나리오를 바탕으로 하였다. 시뮬레이션은 신종인플루엔자 A가 인천공항에 발생하였을 때, 백신이 투여되지 않은 경우, 서울과 평창에 각각 백신이 투여된 경우의 3가지 시나리오에 대해서, 감염자가 피크인 날짜와 I (infectious)의 비율을 비교하였다. 그 결과 백신이 투여되지 않은 경우, 감염자가 피크인 날짜는 교통량이 가장 많은 서울에서 37일로 가장 빠르고, 교통량이 가장 적은 평창에서 43일로 가장 느렸다. I의 비율은 서울에서 가장 높았고, 평창에서 가장 낮았다. 서울에 백신이 투여된 경우, 감염자가 피크인 날짜는 서울이 37일로 가장 빨랐으며, 평창은 43일로 가장 느렸다. 그리고 I의 비율은 강릉에서 가장 높으며, 평창에서 가장 낮았다. 평창에 백신을 투여한 경우, 감염자가 피크인 날짜는 37일로 서울이 가장 빠르고 평창은 43일로 가장 느렸다. I의 비율은 강릉에서 가장 높았고, 평창에서는 가장 낮았다. 이 결과로부터 신종인플루엔자 A가 발생하면 각 도시는 교통량에 의해 영향을 받아 확산된다는 것을 확인할 수 있다. 따라서 전염병 발생시 전파 경로는 각 도시의 교통량에 따라서 달라지므로, 교통량의 분석을 통해서 전염병의 전파 경로를 추적하고 예측함으로써 전염병에 대한 대책이 가능할 것이다.

  • 목적 : 본 연구는 서울대학교병원의 말기암환자와 가족을 위한 집단상담 프로그램을 소개하고, 현황 및 문제점을 파악하고자 하였다. 방법 : 1996년 한 해동안 상담에 참석한 말기암환자 및 가족들의 상담기록지를 중심으로 연구자들이 상담한 내용을 분석하였다. 결과 : 참석자 312명은 가족(84%)이 환자(16%)의 4배 이상 참석했고, 대부분 1회만 참석하고 있음을 보여주었다. 참석한 환자 또는 가족이 돌보는 환자의 현황은 나이별로 60대, 50대, 40대가 많았고, 암의 종류는 폐암, 위암, 간암 순으로 많았다. 가족의 특성은 261명으로 배우자, 자녀, 며느리, 형제자매, 부모순으로 많았다. 프로그램에 오게된 경로는 의사의 권유(69%), 병원 포스터(26%), 기타 순이었다. 이것은 의사가 환자와 가족을 집단에 참여시키는데 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있음을 보여준다. 질문은 우선적으로 의료적인 정보에 대한 욕구가 많았다. 이것은 환자나 가족이 의료진으로부터 정보를 제대로 전달받지 못하고 있음을 보여준다. 또한 가족은 환자를 돌보는데 있어서 정보의 제공만으로 해결될 수 없는 여러가지 실제적인 어려움을 주고 있었다. 그 결과 계속적인 24시간 전화상담 서비스 호스피스 시설 가정간호 서비스의 확대, 3차 의료기관과 1,2차 의료기관과의 의뢰 체계 등을 필요로하고 있었다. 따라서 병원에서 제공될 수 있는 프로그램과 지역사회에서 제공될 수 있는 자원, 호스피스 시설과의 연계가 필요하며 이를 관리해줄 수 있는 환자 관리 전담 인력이 필요하다. 결론 : 본 프로그램은 1회(single-session)적인 성격이 강하지만 환자와 가족이 궁금해하는 점들을 만족시켜주므로서 암에 대한 인식이 증가하고 대처능력이 향상되고 있음을 볼 수 있다. 이것은 이 프로그램이 위기에 처한 말기암환자와 가족을 지지하는 프로그램으로서 활용가치가 높다고 볼 수 있다. 추후 연구는 프로그램의 효용성에 대한 평가가 검토되어야 할 것이며, 다른 병원에서도 각 병원의 특성과 참석자들의 특성을 고려하여 보다 발전된 프로그램이 나오기를 바란다.

  • 인터넷 멀티캐스팅 기술은 지난 10여년간의 기술 발전에도 불구하고 아직 본격적인 서비스 보급이 이루어지지 못하고 있다. 주된 이유는 멀티캐스트 라우팅에서의 트래픽 제어, 글로벌 인터넷에서의 멀티캐스트 주소 할당, 멀티캐스트 신뢰전송 기법 등의 문제가 아직 해결되지 않았기 때문이다. 최근 인터넷 방송, 실시간 증권정보 서비스 등의 멀티캐스트 응용 서비스에 대한 요구가 급격히 증가함에 따라, 새로운 인터넷 멀티캐스팅 기술로써 오버레이 멀티캐스팅이 개발되고 있다 본 논문은 오버레이 멀티캐스팅 기술을 살펴보고, 새로운 멤버가 그룹에 가입하는데 걸리는 시간을 단축하는 방안을 제안한다. 기존의 방식은 잠재적인 부모 노드를 발견하기 위해서 한번에 트리의 한 레벨씩을 검색해 내려갔으며, 이로 인하여 긴 가입 지연 시간이 야기되었다. 또한, 트리의 매 레벨에서 자신과 가까운 노드를 잠재적인 부모 노드로 지적함으로써, 최적의 부모 노드를 선택하려고 노력하였지만 실제로 노드의 제한 차수로 인하여 자신과 가장 가까운 잠재적인 부모 노드를 선택하지 못하였으며, 이로 인해 트리의 효율성이 떨어졌다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 가입 지연 시간을 감소시키고, 생성된 트리의 효율성을 높이기 위해서, 트리의 두 레벨씩 검색하는 방안을 제안한다. 이 방식은 가입 요청 메시지를 자신의 자식 노드에게 전달하는 방식으로, 평상시에 트리 유지를 위한 추가적인 오버헤드 없이, 가입 요청이 왔을 때 검색 메시지의 수를 증가시켜서, 빠르게 가입을 완료한다. 또한, 더 많은 노드를 검색함으로써 좀 더 효율적인 트리를 생성하게 도와준다. 제안하늘 방안의 성능을 평가하기 위해서, 그룹의 멤버 수와 제한 차수를 기준으로 검색 시간 및 검색한 노드의 수 그리고 트리 스위칭 횟수를 측정하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과에서 제안한 기법이 기존의 방식에 비해서 가입 지연 시간을 단축시켰으며, 좀 더 효율적인 트리를 생성하는 것을 볼 수 있었다.본 연구결과 이소플라본은 전립선암 환자의 혈중 지질 패턴과 항산화체계를 개선시키는 효과를 보였다. 따라서 이소플라본이 지질대사에 미치는 영향과 항산화작용기전에 대한 보다 심층적인 연구가 이루어져야 할 것이며, 보다 많은 전립선암 환자를 대상으로 이소플라본 섭취에 따른 장기적인 임상실험연구가 이루어져 이소플라본이 전립선암 환자의 삶의 질을 향상시킬 수 있는지에 대한 다각적인 검토가 필요하다고 본다. 중 참가성 , 흥미성, 지속성, 대인관계 4개의 측정항목에서 높은 증가율을 보여 치료효과가 큰 것으로 판단된다. 원예 치료 실시 후의 자체설문지 평가결과 원예 활동을 통해서 달라진 점은 개인적으로 가족, 이웃 간의 긍정적인 변화를 이끌어내고 있다는 것을 발견할 수 있었고 다양한 원예프로그램이 인상깊었다고 하였으며 다음진행에 추가적으로 야외에서 진행할 프로그램에 대한 욕구가 표출되었다. 이것을 통해 개인적 치료경험과 가족, 이웃 간의 지지망 형성이 중요하며 긍정적인 영향을 주었다는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 또한 다양한 원예치료프로그램의 적용과 야외 활동을 조화롭게 적용한다면 성공적인 프로그램 진행에 도움을 될 것으로 판단된다. 이상의 결과를 종합하면 정신지체장애인에게 원예치료 프로그램을 실시한 이후에 원예에 대한 관심이 높고 자아존중 감이 향상되었으며 원예치료 프로그램에 대한 높은 만족도를 보였고 원예치료에 대한 참가성, 흥미성, 지속성, 대인관계성에서 높은 증가율을 보여 치료프로그램의 개입이 유의미한 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과들 볼 때 의도적인 원예치료활동을 통해서 심신의 치료를 경험하$\infty$I 자존감이 향상되며 회원 상호관계를 통한 사회부적응문제를 치료하여 사회성이 향상될 것이라는 목표에 대한 높은 달성정도를 볼 수 있다. 또한 지속적이고 흥미를 유발하는 원예치 료 프로그램을 적용한다면 심리적, 신체적, 정서적 치료효과가 높은 향상을 보이고 자신감과

  • 1. On 13 September 1964 a storm raged for 3 hours and 20 minutes with pounding heavy rainfalls, and precipitation of 287.5 mm was recorded on that day. The numerous landslides were occured in the eroded forest land neighbouring Mt. Chunbo, while no landslides recorde at all on Mt. Jookyup within the premise of Kwangnung Experiment Station, the Forest Experiment Station. 2. Small-scalled Landslides were occured in 43 different places of watershed area (21.97 ha.) in which the survey had already been done, in and around Mt. Chunbo (378 m a.s.l.). The accumulated soil amount totaled $2,146,56m^3$ due to the above mentioned landslides, while soil accumulated from riverside erosion has reached to $24,168.79m^3$, consisting of soils, stones, and pebbles. However, no landslides were reported in the Mt. Jook yup area because of dense forest covers. The ratio of the eroded soil amount accumulated from the riversides to that of watershed area was 1 to 25. On the other hand, the loss and damage in the research area of Mt. Chonbo are as follows: 28 houses completly destroyed or missing 7 houses partially destroyed 51 men were dead 5 missing, and 57 wounded. It was a terrible human disaster However, no human casualties were recorded at all, 1 house-completly destroyed and missing, 2 houses-partially destroyed. Total:3 houses were destroyed or damaged, in The area of Mt. Jookyup 3. In the calculation of the quanty of accumulated soil, the or mula of "V=1/3h ($a+{\sqrt{ab}}+b$)" was used and it showed that 24, 168.79m of soil, sands, stones and pebbles carried away. 4. Average slope of the stream stood 15 at the time of accident and well found that there was a correlation between the 87% of cross-area sufferd valley erosion and the length of eroded valley, after a study on regression and correlation of the length and cross-area. In other works, the soil erosion was and severe as we approached to the down-stream, counting at a place of average ($15^{\circ}1^{\prime}$) and below. We might draw a correlation such as "Y=ax-b" in terms of the length and cross-area of the eroded valley. 5. Sites of char-coal pits were found in the upper part of the desert-like Mt. Chunbo and a professional opinion shows that the mountain was once covered by the oak three species. Furthermore, we found that the soil of both mountains have been kept the same soil system according to a research of the soil cross-area. In other words, we can draw out the fact that, originally, the forest type and soil type of both Mt. Chunbo (378m) and Mt. Jookyup (610m) have been and are the same. However, Mt. Chunbo has been much more devastated than Mt. Jookyup, and carried away its soil nutrition to the extent that the ratios of N. $P_2O_5K_2O$ and Humus C.E.C between these two mountains are 1:10;1:5 respectively. 6. Mt. Chunbo has been mostly eroded for the past 30 years, and it consists of gravels of 2mm or larger size in the upper part of the mountain, while in the lower foot part, the sandy loam was formulated due to the fact that the gluey soil has been carried and accumulated. On the hand, Mt. Jookyup has consitantly kept the all the same forest type and sandy loam of brown colour both in the upper and lower parts. 7. As for the capability of absorbing and saturating maximum humidity by the surface soil, the ratios of wet soil to dry soil are 42.8% in the hill side and lower part of the eroded Mt. Chunbo and 28.5% in the upper part. On the contrary, Mt. Jookyup on which the forest type has not been changed, shows that the ratio in 77.4% in the hill-side and 68.2% in the upper part, approximately twice as much humidity as Mt. Chunbo. This proves the fact that the forest lands with dense forest covers are much more capable of maintaining water by wood, vegitation, and an organic material. The strength of dreventing from carring away surface soil is great due to the vigorous network of the root systems. 8. As mentioned above, the devastated forest land cause not only much greater devastation, but also human loss and property damage. We must bear in mind that the eroded forest land has taken the valuable soil, which is the very existance of origin of both human being and all creatures. As for the prescription for preventing erosion of forest land, the trees for furtilization has to be planted in the hill,side with at least reasonable amount of aertilizer, in order to restore the strength of earth soil, while in the lower part, thorough erosion control and reforestation, and establishments along the riversides have to be made, so as to restore the forest type.

  • Hospice Care is the best way to care for terminally ill patients and their family members. However most of them can not receive the appropriate hospice service because the Korean health delivery system is mainly be focussed on acutly ill patients. This study was carried out to clarify the situation of hospice in Korea and to develop a hospice care delivery system model which is appropriate in the Korean context. The theoretical framework of this study that hospice care delivery system is composed of hospice resources with personnel, facilities, etc., government and non-government hospice organization, hospice finances, hospice management and hospice delivery, was taken from the Health Delivery System of WHO(1984). Data was obtained through data analysis of litreature, interview, questionairs, visiting and Delphi Technique, from October 1998 to April 1999 involving 56 hospices, 1 hospice research center, 3 non-government hospice organizations, 20 experts who have had hospice experience for more than 3 years(mean is 9 years and 5 months) and officials or members of 3 non-government hospice organizations. There are 61 hospices in Korea. Even though hospice personnel have tried to study and to provide qualified hospice serices, there is nor any formal hospice linkage or network in Korea. This is the result of this survey made to clarify the situation of Korean hospice. Results of the study by Delphi Technique were as follows: 1.Hospice Resources: Key hospice personnel were found to be hospice coordinator, doctor, nurse, clergy, social worker, volunteers. Necessary qualifications for all personnel was that they conditions were resulted as have good health, receive hospice education and have communication skills. Education for hospice personnel is divided into (i)basic training and (ii)special education, e.g. palliative medicine course for hospice specialist or palliative care course in master degree for hospice nurse specialist. Hospice facilities could be developed by adding a living room, a space for family members, a prayer room, a church, an interview room, a kitchen, a dining room, a bath facility, a hall for music, art or work therapy, volunteers' room, garden, etc. to hospital facilities. 2.Hospice Organization: Whilst there are three non-government hospice organizations active at present, in the near future an hospice officer in the Health&Welfare Ministry plus a government Hospice body are necessary. However a non-government council to further integrate hospice development is also strongly recommended. 3.Hospice Finances: A New insurance standards, I.e. the charge for hospice care services, public information and tax reduction for donations were found suggested as methods to rise the hospice budget. 4.Hospice Management: Two divisions of hospice management/care were considered to be necessary in future. The role of the hospice officer in the Health & Welfare Ministry would be quality control of hospice teams and facilities involved/associated with hospice insurance standards. New non-government integrating councils role supporting the development of hospice care, not insurance covered. 5.Hospice delivery: Linkage&networking between hospice facilities and first, second, third level medical institutions are needed in order to provide varied and continous hospice care. Hospice Acts need to be established within the limits of medical law with regards to standards for professional staff members, educational programs, etc. The results of this study could be utilizes towards the development to two hospice care delivery system models, A and B. Model A is based on the hospital, especially the hospice unit, because in this setting is more easily available the new medical insurance for hospice care. Therefore a hospice team is organized in the hospital and may operate in the hospice unit and in the home hospice care service. After Model A is set up and operating, Model B will be the next stage, in which medical insurance cover will be extended to home hospice care service. This model(B) is also based on the hospital, but the focus of the hospital hospice unit will be moved to home hospice care which is connected by local physicians, national public health centers, community parties as like churches or volunteer groups. Model B will contribute to the care of terminally ill patients and their family members and also assist hospital administrators in cost-effectiveness.

  • 이 연구는 강원도 산림유역 내 수계(총 11개 계류)를 대상으로 유목의 전수조사를 실시하고, 유목의 발생기원 추적과 함께 하천차수별 현존량과 분포형태를 분석하여 효과적인 산림유역관리기술의 마련을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 실시하였다. 총 1,207개 유목의 개체목 형태를 3가지 유형으로 구분하여 분석한 결과, (1) 수간만 있는 것 1,142개(95%) 및 수간과 근주가 함께 있는 것 65개(5%), (2) 자연목 1,015개(84%) 및 벌채목 192개(16%), (3) 침엽수 1,050개(87%) 및 활엽수 157개(13%)로 나타났다. 유목의 현존량(㎥/ha)은 1차수 105.4, 2차수 71.3 및 3차수 35.6으로 하류로 갈수록 점차 감소하였다. 반면 유목의 총량에 대한 유목군의 비율은 1차수 11%, 2차수 43% 및 3차수 49%로 하류로 갈수록 증가하였다. 이 연구에서 조사된 유목의 현존량을 해외의 선행연구와 비교하면, 비록 각 국가·지역별로 기후·지형·산림토양·임분의 구조와 생장량·산림의 교란정도와 관리상태가 다르지만, 유목의 현존량은 임령과 정의 상관관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구의 결과는 유목을 산림생태계의 산물이자 산지수변림 교란의 지표로서 인식할 필요가 있음을 시사한다. 이를 토대로 앞으로는 산림유역의 생태계뿐만 아니라 하류의 수계환경까지 고려하여 숲가꾸기 산물의 처리나 수변지역의 임분밀도관리 등을 포함한 산림관리기술이 정립되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

  • 데이터 마이닝은 컴퓨터와 정보처리의 발전으로 각기 다른 차원에서 다량으로 수집되는 데이터 속에서 숨은 의미나 패턴을 발견하는 유용한 기법이다. 의사결정나무, 신경망 모형, 규칙 귀납, K-평균 군집화, 시각화 등의 데이터 마이닝 개별 기법들은 산재해 있는 데이터에서 연관성을 분석하고, 이를 분류함으로써 일반화된 개념을 정의하고, 새로운 지식을 추론함으로써 실제 생활에 적용 가능한 예측을 가능하게 한다. 따라서 현재 데이터 마이닝은 기업의 마케팅 분야, 금융기관의 고객 분석, 통신 회사의 고객 이탈 방지 등에서 유용하게 활용되고 있다. 우리가 접해야 하는 정보의 양이 늘어나는 것은 범죄 수사에 있어서도 마찬가지 현상이다. 범죄와 범죄자에 대한 데이터는 축적되어 가지만 정작 개별 사안에 있어서는 중요한 데이터가 접근조차 되지 않고 있으며, 많은 데이터 속에서 이것이 내포하고 있는 숨은 의미를 지나치게 되는 경우도 많다. 본 연구에서는 선행 연구와 사례 적용을 통해 데이터 마이닝의 범죄 수사 적용 가능성과 한계점을 살펴보고자 하였다. 미제 사건으로 남는 경우가 많은 절도나 사기 같은 습관적 상습 범죄의 경우 데이터 마이닝의 분류, 군집화 기능을 활용 한다면 향후 여죄 추적에 효율적으로 활용될 수 있음을 파악할 수 있었고, 특히 다양한 문제에 적용 가능하고, 잡음에 대한 견고성이 있음에도 예측의 정확성을 지니고 있는 신경망 모형의 경우 패턴 인식을 통하여 범죄자 프로파일링이나 화상 자료 대비 시스템 구축에 충분히 활용될 것으로 생각한다. 특히 보험 사기 사례 적용에서 살펴본 바와 같이 마약, 테러와 같은 조직적 범죄수사나 자금세탁과 같은 금융 추적 수사의 경우 해당 자료의 방대함과 모호성으로 인해 수사를 하는 데 많은 어려움이 있지만 이러한 데이터 마이닝 가시화 기법을 적절히 활용한다면 전체적인 윤곽을 파악하는 데 매우 유용하며, 효율적인 수사가 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 데이터 마이닝은 예측 모델이므로 오류를 내재하고 있다는 점에서 수사 기관의 데이터 마이닝 접근은 조심스러워야 하며, 정보 독점화 현상과 개인 사생활 보호라는 측면에서 각 수사기관은 해당 법률에 정한 범위 내에서 해당 사건별로 데이터를 수집하고 이를 통합, 재구성하여 활용하는 측면으로 적용되어야 할 것이다. 또한 각 수사기관별로는 자신의 보유하고 있는 데이터에 대해 다차원 처리가 가능하도록 데이터베이스 시스템을 구축하여 데이터 마이닝이 적용 가능한 환경을 구축하도록 하여야 할 것이다. 아직은 논의의 초기 단계이므로 효과가 크게 부각되지는 않았지만 지금까지 제시한 문제에 대한 연구가 계속 이루어진다면 인권중심, 증거중심의 수사 개념을 바탕으로 적법절차에 의한 수사 활동을 요구받는 시대에 새로운 대안으로 자리 잡을 것이며, 수사의 과학화에 기여할 것으로 전망한다.

  • 시설물이나 토지, 도로, 방재 등 다방면에서 GIS의 효과성이 입증됨에 따라 최근 들어 상권이나 고객, 영업 관리 등에 GIS를 도입하여 시장분석 및 영업관리 역량을 강화하려는 민간 기업들이 증가하고 있다. 본 사례 연구에서는 날로 치열해지고 있는 통신시장의 경쟁환경 속에서 K사가 정교한 상권 및 고객 분석 역량을 확보하기 위해 GIS 영업정보 시스템을 구축 한 전 과정과 영업현장에서의 시스템 활용방안 등을 살펴보았다. 전사적으로 시스템을 오픈한 후 지사들로부터의 반응은 담당 관할구역에 대한 경쟁상황 파악 및 일/월 추세조회가 용이해 졌고, 왜곡되지 않은 실제 데이터를 제공받아 제한된 시간 내에 정확한 타겟 고객 선정이 가능해졌으며, 동별 시설분포와 같은 시설물 관련정보를 영업활동에 활용할 수 있어 매우 효과적이었다는 등이 주를 이루었다. 이와 같은 과정과 결과를 정리함으로써 향후 GIS 영업정보시스템 구축을 고려하고 있는 타 조직이나 기업들에게 의미 있는 가이드라인을 제시할 수 있기를 기대한다.

  • 본 논문에서는 2차원 바코드를 이용한 오디오 워터마킹 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 삽입되는 워터마크 정보로는 2차원 바코드인 QR 코드를 변형하여 이용하였다. 2차원 바코드가 1차원 바코드에 비하여 많은 정보를 표현할 수 있고, 코드자체가 에러 보정능력을 내재하고 있는 장점을 이용하여 워터마킹 알고리즘의 견고성을 높였다. 또한 부분적인 워터마크 정보의 손실에 대응하기 위하여 직교코드를 이용하여 삽입대역을 확산했으며, 삽입강도 0.7에서 50dB 이상의 우수한 품질을 확보할 수 있었다.
