  • Safety related workers, such as firefighters, have to wear a protective helmet. The Development of Helmets for safety is in progress to promote the wearable device industry. Several accidents caused by negligence in recent days have raised public attention to safety. For this reason, the amount of national budget funding for the study of fire-fighting and smart safety helmets has increased. However, most previous studies have focused on safety, rather than the application of new technologies based on physical attributes, especially the characteristics of head shape and size, even though fire helmets play the critical role of protection from flames and external shocks etc. in an emergency. This paper will present the smart technologies and newly developed designs for safety helmets that are personalized for each firefighter, based on the characteristics of their head, and will help a rescue operation to be much more safe and efficient.

  • Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by infection and represents a substantial global health burden. Recent epidemiological studies showed that sepsis mortality rates have decreased, but that the incidence has continued to increase. Although a mortality benefit from early-goal directed therapy (EGDT) in patients with severe sepsis or septic shock was reported in 2001, three subsequent multicenter randomized studies showed no benefits of EGDT versus usual care. Nonetheless, the early administration of antibiotics and intravenous fluids is considered crucial for the treatment of sepsis. In 2016, new sepsis definitions (Sepsis-3) were issued, in which organ failure was emphasized and use of the terms "systemic inflammatory response syndrome" and "severe sepsis" was discouraged. However, early detection of sepsis with timely, appropriate interventions increases the likelihood of survival for patients with sepsis. Also, performance improvement programs have been associated with a significant increase in compliance with the sepsis bundles and a reduction in mortality. To improve sepsis management and reduce its burden, in 2017, the World Health Assembly and World Health Organization adopted a resolution that urged governments and healthcare workers to implement appropriate measures to address sepsis. Sepsis should be considered a medical emergency, and increasing the level of awareness of sepsis is essential.

  • Objectives: In Japan, there are many disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis, and because of the high temperature and humid climate, health education for food poisoning may be particularly important. In addition, sexual problems caused by precociousness of adolescents, smoking and drinking are already serious socially important problems, and addiction problems are also emerging. Methods: Various publications from Japanese governments, interest groups such as government officers, health center workers, and people from health educators. For the information of Korean health education conditions, a current health educator and people from middle and high schools. Results: In 2012, based on the "Investigation Report on the Mind Care of Children in Emergency Disasters" from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, the Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) situation of children in East Japan affected areas was discovered, and health education became important. In 2014, the "School Health and Safety Act Enforcement Rule" was amended, and health checkups are emphasized as part of school health. Conclusions: School health education in Japan differs from other health care systems in many ways with the system of Korea in the context of non-existence of official health education curriculum. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develope how the curriculum of school health education in Korea.

  • Three workers, field operators in lubricating oil processing of petroleum refinery industry were found unconscious by other worker. One of them who were exposed to an high concentration of H2S was presented with Glasgow Coma Score of 5, severe hypoxemia on arterial blood gas analysis, normal chest radiography, and normal blood pressure. On hospital day 7, his mental state became clear, and neurologic examination showed quadriparesis, profound spasticity, increased tendon reflexes, abnormal Babinski response, and bradykinesia. He was also found to have decreased memory, attention deficits and blunted affect which suggest general cognitive dysfunction, which improved soon. MRI scan showed abnormal signals in both basal ganglia and motor cortex, compatible with clinical findings of motor dysfunction. Neuropsychologic testing showed deficits of cognitive functions. SPECT showed markedly decreased cortical perfusion in frontotemporoparietal area with deep white matter. Another case was recovered completely, but the other expired the next day.

  • This study is a comparative study on the tendency of power distance between administrative and field personnel in fire departments. For this study, 355 firefighters nationwide were surveyed from August 22 to December 31, 2023, and the collected data was analyzed using the SPSS 24.0 statistical program. As a result of the reliability analysis, Cronbach's =.803 was found to be higher than the standard value of 0.6. irefighting agencies are firefighting organizations that work to resolve incidents quickly and efficiently at disaster sites, and an appropriate level of power distance is essential. However, excessive power distance between superiors and subordinates leads to self-righteousness in administration and incompetence in field activities through one-sided instructions and compliance. As a result of analyzing the power distance tendencies of administrative and field workers in fire departments in this study, it was confirmed that there was no bias in either direction with an average score of 2.55. And the level of power distance tendency between administrative and field firefighters was 2.56 points, showing no significant difference.

  • Reliable and precise indoor localization is crucial for personal navigation, emergency rescue, and monitoring workers indoors. To use this technology in different applications, it is important to make it less dependent on infrastructure and to keep the error as small as possible. Fingerprinting stands out as a popular choice for indoor positioning because it leverages existing infrastructure and works with just a smartphone. However, its accuracy heavily relies on the quality of that infrastructure. For instance, having too few access points or beacons can greatly reduce its effectiveness. To reduce dependence on RF infrastructure, we have developed surface correlation (SC) using accumulated Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) signals This approach constructs a user mask for radio map comparisons using an accumulated RSSI vector and the trajectory of the user, which is estimated through PDR. The location with the highest correlation is considered as the user's position after comparison. Through a simulation, the performance of short RSSI vector-based technology and SC is analyzed, and future directions for the development of SC are discussed.

  • 2015년 화학물질관리법 시행 이후 화학 사고 발생 수는 감소 추세에 있으나, 최근 인쇄회로기판(PCB) 제조시설에서 유사한 유형의 사고가 반복적으로 발생함에 따라 실험을 통해 사고 원인을 조사 분석하였다. 해당 사고는 인쇄회로기판 제조공정 내 에칭용액으로 사용한 유해화학물질인 염산과 과산화수소가 월류하여 발생한 사고로 작업자 부주의와 시설 관리 미흡이 주된 사고 원인으로 조사되었다. 사고 원인을 규명하기 위해 실시한 $Cl^-$의 함량 분석 결과 과산화수소 시료에서 66.85 ppm로 측정되어 사고 물질인 염산과 과산화수소의 혼합경로를 확인할 수 있었으며, 반응실험을 통해 반응열이 $50.5^{\circ}C$까지 발생함에 따라 PVC 저장탱크의 변형과 유독가스인 염소가스 발생을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 인쇄회로기판 제조시설의 에칭공정에서의 과충전, 역류방지, 누출감지장치와 혼합방지를 위한 저장탱크 분리 설계 등 시설 안전 관리 방안과 해당 장치의 장외영향평가 검토 필요성을 제시하고자 하였다. 또한 동일 유형의 사고 재발 방지를 위하여 주기적인 시설 안전점검과 작업자의 안전교육 강화의 필요성에 대하여 논의하였다.

  • "공공부문 정규직 전환"이라는 정부의 정책 변화에 따라 국회, 정부청사, 인천공항 등 국가중요시설에 대한 보안산업에 상당한 변화가 일어나고 있다. 또한, 현역병 지원감소 등의 이유로 2023년 의무경찰 제도가 폐지하게 되어 국회, 정부청사, 경찰청 등 국가중요시설뿐만 아니라 경찰관서, 국회의장 등의 공관 및 전직 대통령 사저 등에서 기존 의무경찰이 담당하던 시설경비업무를 대체할 수 있는 인력 마련이 시급한 현실이다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 대체 인력으로 거론되고 있는 청원경찰, 특수경비원, 방호원의 법적근거 및 관리감독, 고용형태 및 임금, 직무범위 및 직무권한에 대한 비교분석을 실시하였으며, 수도권 5개 대학(2년제 전문대학 3개, 4년제 대학교 2개)의 경호 및 보안 관련 학과에 재학 중인 학생 234명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시한 결과 청원경찰로 대체하는 것이 가장 효과적인 방안이라 할 수 있다. 이러한 보안산업의 변화에 따라 경호 및 보안 관련 학과에서는 청원경찰로의 취업 등 우수한 인력을 양성하기 위해 '위급상황 대처능력', '무도능력'을 중심으로 학생들의 다양한 능력을 향상시키기 위해 노력해야 한다. 또한, '무도 단증'과 '응급구조 및 심폐소생술', '경비지도사 및 신변보호사' 등의 자격증을 취득하기 위한 '무도실기', '청원경찰법', '응급구조 및 심폐소생술' 등의 과목을 경호 및 보안 관련 학과 교육과정에 적극적으로 반영할 필요성이 있다.

  • 본 연구는 구급대원 12명이 참여하여 나누어 근전도를 측정하였다. 헬멧을 착용하지 않는 경우, 920g 헬멧을 착용한 경우, 1310g 헬멧을 착용한 경우로 나누어 근전도를 측정하였다. 머리와 목의 좌우 움직임에서는 반대쪽(흉쇄 유돌근)는 근 활성도가 높았고, 굴곡과 과신전(흉쇄유돌근, 판상근)시 근 활성도는 유의성이 없었다. 특히 긴척추고정판에 무게를 싣고 들어올리거나 내릴때의 세모근과 척추 기립근은 헬멧 유무에 따라 근전도 활성에 다소 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 구급대원들이 긴척추고정판을 이용하여 환자를 들어올리거나 내릴때는 머리와 목의 각도를 좌우로만 움직이지 않는다면 새로 개발한 스마트 헬멧은 대원들의 목 주위의 근육에 영향을 주지 않는다고 사료 된다. 척추기립근이나 세모긍의 경우는 각도가 커짐에 따라 허리와 등근육은 동작을 좌우하는 근육에서 근전도 활성이 높게 나타났다고 사료된다. 그렇지만 기존의 파워리프팅(들어올리는 동작)동작에서 허리를 가능한 꼿꼿히 세우는 규칙을 지킨다면 요추 주위의 근육 및 골격계 질병에 대한 대처를 할 수 있다고 생각된다.
