응급 상황이 발생하면, 주어진 응급관리 정보 시스템(EMIS)에 의하여 응급차가 출동한다. 그러나 기존 EMIS의 문제점은 전문 의료인과 응급차 간의 신뢰성 높은 의사소통에 주안점을 두지 않아서 불필요한 사망자를 초래했다는 점이다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 단점을 해결하기 위해 고신뢰성 응급관리 정보 시스템인 HEMIS(Highly-reliable Emergency Management Information System)를 제시한다. 평가 결과, HEMIS는 기존의 EMIS에 비해 데이터 압축, 데이터 안전성 그리고 QoS면에서 우수하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러므로 HEMIS는 응급차 내에서 의료 서비스 질을 높임과 동시에 응급차로 이동하면서 사망자 수를 줄일 것으로 기대된다.

Background: This study aimed to examine whether cases of punishing false claimants threat general physicians to check their medical cost claims with care to avoid being suspected, and identify empirically general deterrence effects of the on-site investigation system in the Korean National Health Insurance. Methods: 800 clinics were selected among a total of 15,443 clinics that had no experience of on-site investigation until June 2007 using a stratified proportional systematic sampling method. We conducted logistic multiple regression to examine the association between factors related to provider's perception of on-site investigation and high level of perceived deterrence referring to fear of punishment after adjusting provider's service experiences and general characteristics. Results: The probability of high perceived deterrence was higher 1.7 times (CI: 1.13-2.56), 2.73 times (CI: 1.68-4.45) each among clinics exchanging the information once or more per year or once or more for 2-3 months than among clinics no exchanging the information about on-site investigation. Also, the probability of high perceived deterrence was higher 2.27 times (CI: 1.28-4.45) among clinics that knows more than 3 health care institutions having experienced an on-site investigation than among clinics knowing no case. Conclusion: A clinic knowing more punishment cases by onsite investigation and exchanging more frequently information about on-site investigation is likely to present high perceived deterrence. This result will provide important information to enlarge preventive effects of on-site investigation on fraud and abuse claims.

Objectives: To evaluate medical students' knowledge of HPV and HPV related diseases and assess their attitudes towards HPV vaccination. Methods: A total of 605 medical undergraduates from Chongqing Medical University in China were surveyed using a structured and pretested questionnaire on HPV related knowledge. Results: Some 68.9% of the medical students were females, and mean age was 21.6 (${\pm}1.00$) years. Only 10.6% correctly answered more than 11 out of 14 questions on HPV related knowledge, 71.8% being willing to receive/advise on HPV vaccination. Female students (OR: 2.69; 95% CI: 1.53-4.72) and students desiring more HPV education (OR: 4.24; 95% CI: 1.67-10.8) were more willing to accept HPV vaccination. HPV vaccination acceptability was observed to show a positive association with HPV related knowledge. Conclusions: Our survey found low levels of HPV related knowledge and HPV vaccination acceptability among participating medical students. HPV education should be systematically incorporated into medical education to increase awareness of HPV vaccination.

U-health Service는 환자와 의료진과의 언제 어디에서나 의료서비스를 제공하는 것을 지칭하며 정보통신 기술과 보건의료를 융합한 서비스로 정의하고 있다. 그러나 환자의 의료정보, 개인정보 유출과 같은 사례가 발생하고 있고, 또한 네트워크를 통하여 데이터 송수신을 계승하므로써 기존 유 무선기반의 보안위협사항을 계승하는 취약점이 있다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 U-Health Service에서 발생하는 취약점을 보완하고자 통합 인증스키마를 설계하여 안정한 개인정보에 대한 관리 시스템을 제안하였다. 제안프로토콜에서는 ID-Based Encryption을 활용하여 사용자 등록, 의료기관과 사용자간의 인증, 데이터 통신 암 복호화, 사용자 정보 폐기에 대한 프로토콜을 설계하였으며, 이에 따른 기존시스템 및 PKI Based 기반 통신과정과 보안성과 안전성에 관하여 분석하였다.

Korea is undergoing a rapid environmental change in health and welfare. Therefore, the law mandates the establishment and implementation of plans in accordance with the changes. A total of 49 long-term plans related to health and welfare were specified by the National Law Information Center, the Korean representative legal information website managed by the Korea Ministry of Government Legislation. Of the 49 long-term plans, 10 plans (20.4%) were not yet fully constructed. Eight out of 10 non-constructive plans have been put into force for more than a year, but these plans still require further systematic planning and development. The complete construction of long-term plans is substantial to account for the changes in South Korean health and welfare. In addition, a systematic plan with solidarity and continuity between the mutual plans should be established in planning.
