연구목적 : 항우울제는 정신과 의사뿐만 아니라 많은 비정신과 의사들에 의해 처방 되어지는 정신과 약물이다. 하지만 항우울제에 대해 부정적인 인식이 높은 게 현실이다. 따라서 본 연구는 대학병원 외래를 방문한 일반 환자군들을 대상으로 항우울제에 대한 전반적인 인식과 태도를 알아봄으로써, 항우울제 및 정신과 약물에 대한 사회적 편견 및 오해를 줄여 나가고, 지역사회 정신건강 발전에 도움이 되는 기초 자료로 삼고자 연구를 시행하였다. 방법 : 일 지역 대학병원에 내원한 내과계열 및 외과계열 외래 환자들 200명을 대상으로 정신과 전공의 2인 및 수련의가 외래 대기실에서 환자들을 면담하여 연구 목적을 설명하고, 항우울제에 대한 인식과 태도에 대해 평가하기 위하여 12문항으로 고안한 자가 보고형 설문지를 사용하였다. 결과 : 1) 내과 및 외과 계열 환자들 모두에서 항우울제에 대한 부정적인 인식이 매우 높았다. 2) 외과계열 외래 환자들이 내과 계열 환자들보다 항우울제 약물이 몸에 해롭다고 생각하는 비율이 더 높았다. 3) 항우울제 복용 경험이 없는 환자들이 항우울제에 대해서 부정적인 인식과 태도를 갖고 있었다. 4) 항우울제 복용 거부 이유로는 약물 부작용에 대한 두려움이 높았다. 결론 : 항우울제의 처방시 일반인들의 항우울제에 대한 부정적인 인식을 이해하고, 항우울제에 대해 근거있고 객관적인 사실을 설명하는 적극적인 노력이 더욱 필요하다.

Although it is well known that cancer patients suffer from malnutrition, there are few published studies on malnutrition in outpatients receiving chemotherapy in Korea. This study aimed to evaluate nutritional risk in oncology outpatients receiving chemotherapy and to show the baseline data to set up nutritional management programs for cancer patients. This is a retrospective observational analysis on 1,962 patients referred for nutritional education before or during chemotherapy at Seoul National University Hospital Cancer Center from January 2006 to May 2007. According to a malnutrition screening tool, the proportion of patients having malnutrition risk was 23.0%. In the case of upper gastrointestinal cancer, more than 50% of patients were assessed as being at the risk of malnutrition. They showed more than 7% weight loss compared to their usual body weight and poor oral intake; energy intake was less than 100% of Basal Energy Expenditure(BEE) and protein intake was less than or equal to 0.77 g/kg/d. However, only 6.3% of breast cancer patients had risk of malnutrition and their oral intake was better; energy intake was 121% of BEE, and protein intake was 0.90 g/kg/d. Outpatients receiving chemotherapy had different nutritional risk depending on their cancer site. Nutritional management program should be conducted differently, depending on the cancer site and upper gastrointestinal cancer patients at high risk of malnutrition should basically have nutritional assessment and intervention.

이 연구는 A 중소병원의 입원환자와 외래환자를 대상으로 환자만족도에 영향을 미치는 의료서비스 품질요인이 입원 외래 환자 간 어떠한 차이를 보이는지 분석한다. 설문은 2011년 8월 20일부터 총 4주간 진행되었으며, 조사대상으로는 입원환자 96명, 외래환자 315명 총 411명이었다. 수집된 자료를 활용하여 다중회귀분석을 실시한 결과 입원환자의 경우 병원의 인지도가 환자만족도에 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 반면, 외래환자는 의료진의 우수성, 병원 편의시설과 환경의 우수성, 친절한 직원, 병원의 인지도, 편리한 진료 및 행정절차 등 다양한 요인이 유의한 관계를 보였다. 이 연구는 중소병원이 의료 서비스를 개선하고 경쟁력을 갖추기 위해서 입원 및 외래 환자를 구분하여 각 환자군 별로 만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 차별화 하여 서비스 개선에 반영하는 것이 효과적일 수 있음을 제시해 주고 있다.

Methods: To analyze characteristics of outpatients with postpartum disease, I searched medical records from July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2020 using O94 (Sequelae of complication of pregnancy) in an oriental medicine hospital and 73 Sanpuhung patients were analyzed. Results: 1. The average age of Sanpuhung outpatients was 32.83±3.14 years old. The mean body weight difference between full-term pregnancy and visiting date was -7.79±4.23 kg. 2. The most chief complaints of Sanpuhung outpatients were musculo-skeletal symptoms in 57 (78.08%) patients followed by neuropsychiatric symptoms and circulatory symptoms.

연구목적 이 연구의 목적은 양극성 장애로 진단받은 정신과 외래 환자에서 야간 식이습관의 임상적 특성을 조사하는데 있다. 방 법 정신건강의학과 외래를 방문한 84명의 양극성 장애 환자를 대상으로 14개 항목의 야간 식이증후군 설문지(NEQ)를 자가 보고로 실시하였다. 이들의 인구학적, 임상적 특성을 조사하고 신체 질량 지수(BMI), 주관석 기분과 수면, 폭식과 체중에 관련된 삶의 질에 대한 평가를 Beck Depression Inventory(BDI), Binge Eating Scale(BES), Korean version of Obesity-related Quality of Life scale(KOQoL), Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index(PSQI) 등을 포함한 설문을 통해 얻었다. 결 과 양극성 장애 외래 환자 중 야간 식이증후군의 유병률은 14.3%(84명 중 12명)이었다. NES와 Non-NES군 사이에서는 경제적 상태와 동반되는 내과 질환을 제외한 성별, 나이, 교육 년 수, 결혼 및 직업 상태, 흡연, 음주 등의 인구사회학적 특성에서 양군간에 유의한 차이를 보이지는 않았다. 하지만, Non-NES 군에 비해 NES군에서 폭식이 많았고 비만으로 인한 삶의 질 저하가 나타났다. 결 론 이번 연구는 야간식이를 보이는 양극성 장애 외래환자의 임상적 특성을 처음으로 기술하였다. 비록 양극성 장애 외래 환자의NES군에서 뚜렷한 상관 관계를 보이는 특성이 많지는 않았지만, 상대적으로 NES 유병률이 높은 것으로 볼 때 임상에서 양극성 장애 환자 평가 시 비만 여부에 관계 없이 NES를 염두에 두어야 할 것이다.

Background: The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of differential coinsurance policy on prescription drug coverage of outpatients by types of medical institutions. Methods: In this study, we used a sample cohort database of the National Health Insurance Service and frequency analysis and marginal logistic regression model using generalized estimating equation were used for statistical analysis. Results: The summary on the major research is followed. First, about 16% of patients who used only tertiary or general hospital due to 52 ambulatory care sensitive conditions before policy implementation moved to hospitals and clinics. However, about 57% of them still use tertiary or general hospital. Second, the factors influencing the utilization of hospitals and clinics after the implementation of the policy were gender, age, and income level. As a result, the policy is effective to reduce the medical use of outpatient mental patients in tertiary or general hospital, but the effect is not significant. Conclusion: Therefore, in order to achieve the purpose of the policy for establishing the health care delivery system, it is necessary to adjust the co-payment so as to feel the burden on the co-payment when the outpatient for 52 ambulatory care sensitive conditions is used at the tertiary or general hospital.
