Purpose: This study was conducted to identify patients' dissatisfaction with health care through a content analysis of newspaper articles published between 1990 and 2015. It focused on developing a systematic coding scheme for content analysis as well as exploring changes over time. Methods: Among articles published by 8 major national newspapers, our content analysis used those that specifically covered the dissatisfaction of patients. Coding taxonomy was developed in two domains: (1) contents of dissatisfaction and (2) special circumstances and groups where complaints were filed. All articles were then coded according to this coding taxonomy to conduct descriptive analysis. Results: A total of 794 complaints were discovered in 338 articles. Contents of dissatisfaction were classified into 7 categories and 50 subcategories. Complaints regarding accessibility, technical care, and administration were noticeable in special circumstances, including strikes and spread of epidemic diseases, whereas complaints on interpersonal care and cost were prominent in general population and circumstances. When comparing the proportion of articles covering patient dissatisfaction in general population/circumstances between 1990-2000 and 2001-2015, complaints on administration and physical environment diminished over time, whereas complaints on outcome of health care increased. Conclusion: This study offers a rare window to view the responsiveness of the Korean health care system on a long time horizon.

This paper presents a novel method to design and implement mobile u-health system by defining the essential elements of mobile healthcare services. We choose common service elements for the proposed u-healthcare scheme and design the service platform. Especially we focus on automatic feces or urine sensing u-care scheme to prove the effectiveness of our platform. We construct the system with sensing part with a manikin and a diaper wireless communication part with feces or urine sensing data, and coordinator system based on the u-health platform defined in this paper. Experimental results show that our scheme is useful in the area of u-care service for the handicapped, the elderly, and patients who can hardly move by themselves. In addition the designed scheme offers a realized u-care scheme with the purpose of advanced developing tools for application or service developers.

This study examines whether the infant mortality rate and life expectancy at birth are affected by health care expenditure in Korea. It can be provisionally concluded that the infant mortality rate tends to be affected by the health system itself in the long-run, whereas life expectancy at birth is immediately affected by health-related facilities such as the number of physicians and number of hospital beds in the short-run. Therefore, the health-related system should be well established to improve the infant mortality rate. On the contrary, physical capital such as life-prolonging medical technologies has to be accumulated to improve life expectancy at birth.

본 연구의 목적은 고혈압 및 당뇨병 환자의 건강 관련 의사결정에 대한 참여경험을 탐색하는 것이다. 당뇨병 또는 고혈압의 만성질환을 진단받고 1년 이상 보건소에 정기적으로 방문하였던 장년기 환자 11명이 참여하였다. 자료의 수집은 개별 인터뷰를 통해 시행되었으며, Braun과 Clark 가 제시한 주제 분석법을 적용하여 분석되었다. 연구 결과 6개의 하위주제와 3개의 주제가 도출되었다. 각각의 주제는 '짧은 면담시간을 효율적으로 활용하기 위해 노력함', '의료인에게 한정된 영역 안에서 응답함', '건강관리에 대한 지속적인 동기부여가 결여됨'이었다. 본 연구 결과는 만성질환자의 의사결정에 대한 참여를 독려하기 위해 정확하고 충분한 건강정보를 제공하고 지지적인 태도로 환자의 동기를 부여해야 할 필요성을 제시하였다.

급속한 인구 고령화 시대에 노인들의 건강한 삶을 위해서는 질병예방과 관리가 무엇보다 중요하다. 규칙적인 신체활동은 노인들의 신체적 정신적 건강을 위한 유용한 중재방법으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 노인들의 규칙적인 신체활동을 유도하기 위한 중재 방식으로 IT기술이 적용된 융합형 콘텐츠들을 탐색하였다. 건강관리와 IT기술 융합으로 u-Healthcare와 기능성 게임을 들 수 있으며, 이 중 게임적 요소인 재미에 교육, 훈련, 치료 등의 특별한 목적이 부가된 기능성 게임은 신체활동을 유도하는 다양한 콘텐츠를 제공하기에 매우 적합하다 할 수 있다. 노인들의 신체활동 향상을 유도하여 건강관리에 도움이 되는 콘텐츠로 "Puffer(ATARI, 미국)", "WiiFit(닌텐도, 일본)", "Age Invaders(MXR Lab, 싱가포르)", "Xbox $360^{\circ}$+kinect(Microsoft, 미국)", "체감형 자전거 게임(동신대학교, 대한민국)", 그리고 "3D 게이트볼 게임(숭실대학교, 대한민국)" 등이 있었다. 이들 콘텐츠의 활용을 통해 신체활동량을 증가시킴으로써 노인들의 일상생활에서 요구되는 체력요인과 신체기능 향상을 도모하고 심리적 안정과 긍정적 정서를 가능하게 하여 건강을 유지 증진시키고 질병 예방을 도모할 수 있을 것이다.

The objective of this study is to identify the current state of usage and needs for Smart Technology (ST) in the elderly care facilities based on the point of view of staff members. Using survey via mails, data were analyzed with responses from top- or middle-level staff members working in 171 elderly care facilities located in Seoul, Gyeonggi-do, and Chungcheongnam-do. Results indicated that the most needed smart technology was home automation, followed by nurse call system and health monitoring. The technology with the highest feasibility was health monitoring, followed by nurse call system and video phone. Staff members in higher positions working in the elderly care facilities had the highest expectation in improving the image of their facilities by using ST, while they had low expectation for the fact that ST may increase the locus of control of the elderly. This study implies that ST implementations may vary depending on the level of responsibility of staff members and ST how people responsible for the elderly care facilities subjectively perceive the ST.

Purposes: The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the contents of hospital reservation and reception applications(apps) are qualitatively useful in meeting the needs of medical consumers and improving hospital accessibility and convenience. Methodology: (1) identify consumer needs through social data web mining, (2) describe the status of key contents of mobile apps to improve accessibility and convenience of care, and (3) verify the quality of apps through validated tools Finding: The contents of 'mobile reservation function' and 'waiting time information provision' that can contribute to reduction of delay time of care and efficiency of desk work were supported, but the level of utilization was insufficient. The quality level of the app, including the level of consumers' needs, has shown a wide gap between the apps. Implications: The recent development of mobile apps for hospital accessibility and consumer needs has shown a wide gap in the quality of apps, including information and aesthetic. Therefore, it is necessary to develop apps based on user interface(UI), user experience(UX) based designs that can promote the usefulness and convenience of apps while monitoring needs of consumers continuously.
