Objective : This study examined benzodiazepine prescription patterns of outpatients visiting the psychiatry department in a single general hospital in Korea. Methods : A retrospective descriptive analysis of benzodiazepine prescriptions was performed on a database from 2014 in a general hospital in Korea. We analyzed the following factors of adult outpatients: demographic factors such as sex and age, amount of benzodiazepine prescribed, treatment duration, and diagnosis based on the ICD-10. Results : In 2014, benzodiazepines were prescribed to 46.4% of the outpatients. Percentage of benzodiazepine prescription increased with age and was highest in the age group 40-59 years. Prescription was more prevalent in women and the prescription percentage increased by treatment duration. Patients with the F4 diagnosis (neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders) were the most highly prescribed group. For all diagnosis groups, prescription was more prevalent in females or similar for both sexes except for patients with F5 diagnosis (behavioral syndromes associated with physiological disturbances and physical factors), with males being more predominant. Conclusion : Despite the concern regarding the rate of benzodiazepine prescription and administration to geriatric patients, long-term prescription and usage among older patients is still prevalent.

Objectives: This study analyzed the prescription characteristics of medication for acute respiratory diseases before and after pay-for-performance to provide basic data on effective medical quality management policies. Methods: The research data were collected from the 2013-2014 sample cohort of the National Health Insurance Corporation, from Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, Otorhinolaryngology, Family Medicine and General practitioner clinics (classification of disease codes: J00-J06, J20-J22, J40 outpatients). Results: The antibiotics prescription rates decreased from 43.9% in 2013 to 43.5% in 2014 when the major diagnosis was for upper respiratory infections and increased from 62.0% in 2013 to 62.5% in 2014 when the major diagnosis was for lower respiratory infections. Conclusions: There is a need to identify the correct antibiotic prescription method by expanding the current assessment standards. Such standards must include acute lower respiratory infections and minor diagnoses as the current evaluation techniques focus only on the major diagnosis of acute upper respiratory infections.

In Traditional Oriental Medicine, there has been a growing needs for computerized diagnosis expert system, which can implement pre-diagnosis and correct the errors of practitioners. Therefore, we developed the expert system (KHU-PIPE : Kyung Hee University - Pattern Identification and Prescription Expert) for diagnosis and treatment. It has three characteristics as following. First. this system has the knowledge base which modified the standardized data designed by Chinese government during 1980s. Second, it provides the objective and standardized diagnosis as the results of pattern identification and their appropriate prescriptions for treatment. Third, it is applied to both LAN system and internet. Furthermore, it can be used as an educational methods for the practices of pattern identification and prescription, and provide the objective criteria for clinical studies and promote the Traditional Oriental Medicine as an evidence-based medicine.

Background: Depression is the leading cause of lowering the quality of life of cancer patients and lung cancer is the most likely to cause depression. It is necessary to find out depression-related factors in lung cancer patients. Methods: The study was a retrospective cohort study using medical records, and was a non-equivalent comparison group design. It involved patients diagnosed of lung cancer at the Konkuk University Medical Center from January to December 2012. Between antidepressants prescription group and non prescription group, socio-demographic factors, clinical factors, treatment-related factors and other factors were analyzed statistically. Results: Antidepressant prescription group consisted of 23 people and non-prescription group of 206 people. Prescription rate of quetiapine was the highest 47.8% (11/23), followed by escitalopram (43.5%, 10/23), amitryptyline and trazodone (30.4%, 7/23). The prescription group was prescribed with an average of 1.9 antidepressants. Antidepressants were prescribed after average of 248 days from lung cancer diagnosis and prescription period per patient was average 177.5 days. According to the result of univariate logistic regression analysis between 2 groups, factors such as number of outpatient visit, number of admission, days of hospitalization, sleep disorder, and comorbidity were found to be statistically significant (p < 0.05). However, According multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that number of admission, days of hospitalization and sleep disorder were statistically significant (p < 0.05) excluding comorbidity.

원격의료는 원격지에서 영상, 통화 등 기기를 사용하여 환자를 진단, 치료하는 의료의 한 분야이다. 환자를 대면하여 진단, 치료, 처방하는 전통적인 방식에서 벗어나, 원격에 있는 환자에게 의료를 제공하기 때문에, 의료 소외 지역, 거동이 불편한 환자에 도움이 될 것이고, 의사들은 공간적 제약을 벗어나 환자를 볼 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 하지만 의사가 환자를 대면 진료하는 것에 비하면, 진료의 질이 떨어지는 문제가 나타날 수 있어서, 허용 여부와 한계를 정하는 것도 필요하다. 원격의료 유형 중에서 의사가 환자를 원격에서 진료하고 처방전을 발행하는 것을 원격진료라고 정의할 수 있는데, 현행 의료법상 허용되는지에 대하여 법 해석이 일관되지 못하고 있다. 의료법 처방전 조항은 의사의 '진찰' 또는 '직접 진찰' 규정에 의하여 처방전을 발급한다고 규정하고 있는데, 이것을 대면 진료를 요구하는 규정이라고 해석하는 헌법재판소 결정과 일정한 제한 하에서 전화 처방을 인정할 수 있다는 대법원 판결이 대립하고 있다. 또한 의료법상 원격의료 규정에 의하여 명백하게 법상 허용되는 원격의료자문 외에 의사 환자 간 원격진료는 불법이라는 대법원 판결이 있다. 본 논문에서는 의료법 개정 연혁, 개정 이유 및 관련 의료법 조항과의 관련성을 통하여 원격진료에 대한 대법원 판례를 해석하고자 한다. 결론적으로 의료법상 처방전 규정에 의한, 의사의 직접 진찰 후, 처방전 발급 조항은 환자를 진찰한 의사가 처방전을 발급해야 한다는 처방전 발급 명의에 관한 의무 조항으로 해석하며, 의료법 원격의료 규정에 의하여 의사-환자 간 원격진료는 허용되지 않은 것으로 판단한다.
