Background: Rest breaks at work are reported to reduce fatigue and job stress. Apartment janitors in Korea who perform night shift work and work long hours can be exposed to various health problems (HPs). However, few studies have evaluated relationships between their rest breaks and HPs. This study was conducted to examine the relationships between long working hours, shift work, and insufficient rest breaks and HPs among Korean apartment janitors. Methods: Data on 1,212 selected male apartment janitors were obtained from the 3rd and 4th Korean Working Conditions Surveys. Demographic and occupational characteristics were collected using self-reported questionnaires. Rest breaks at work were classified as "sufficient" or "insufficient." Long working hours were considered as working more than 60 hours per week. Zero-inflated negative binomial (ZINB) regression was performed to investigate the effects of shift work and long working hours on HPs and the effects of rest breaks on relationships between HPs and long working hours and shift work. Results: Among those with insufficient rest breaks at work, significant associations were found between long working hours and the risk of HPs [odds ratio (OR) = 1.489; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.038-2.136] and work-related HPs (WRHPs) [OR 1.621; 95% CI = 1.156-2.272], and between shift work and HPs [OR = 1.603; 95% CI = 1.084-2.372]. These relationships became nonsignificant when sufficient rest breaks were provided. Conclusion: It is important to provide breaks at work to reduce HPs because of long working hours and shift work among aged workers such as apartment janitors.

2013년 8월 20일 해사노동협약이 국제적으로 발효되면서 휴식시간의 실제적인 이행 여부를 항만국통제에서 점검하게 되었다. 한일간 셔틀 운항을 하는 선박은 항해시간이 짧고 입항 항구수가 많아 해사노동협약이나 우리나라 선원법에서 정하고 있는 선원휴식시간을 준수하지 못하는 경우가 발생하고 있으며, 이는 선박의 운항에 큰 지장을 초래할 수 있는 사항이 되었다. 이 연구에서는 이러한 선박들에서 휴식시간 규정을 준수할 수 있는 방안을 찾기 위해 항해사들의 당직모델을 여러 가지로 변경하거나 정박당직을 육상직원으로 대체하는 방안 등을 검토하였다. 한일간 셔틀 운항 선박이 휴식시간 규정을 만족하기 위해서는 입항 항구 수의 축소 또는 정박당직의 육상직원 대체와 같은 방안의 복합적인 적용이 필요한 것으로 연구되었다.

Purpose: This study was to compare the effects of early ambulation to usual care of late ambulation in patients with transarterial chemoembolization on back pain, discomfort, and puncture site complications. Methods: A nonequivalent control pretest-posttest design was used. Total 40 patients were recruited from a gastrointestinal unit of an urban general hospital in Seoul, South Korea. The experimental group began to ambulate after 4 hours of bed rest with a compression bandage after receiving transarterial chemoembolization. The control group stayed in bed with a compression bandage overnight. Results: Back pain was not significantly different between the two group. The experimental group reported significantly lower discomfort than the control group. There was no incidence of bleeding complications on puncture site between two groups. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that early ambulation with four hours of bed rest after femoral sheet removal did not cause bleeding complications compared to the usual care and even decreased patients' level of discomfort due to bed rest. Repetitive research on the effect of short bed rest is warranted for its clinical utilization.

Purpose: This study was conducted to examine the effects of bed side exercising on back pain and bleeding during absolute bed rest in patients who had received transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). Methods: A nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used. A total 46 patients were sampled from a gastrointestinal unit of a urban general hospital in Seoul. The control group received 8 hours of bed rest and conservative care. The experimental group received 8 hours of bed rest and bed side exercising every one hour from the time having absolute bed rest for 3 hours after TACE. Results: The experimental group with bed side exercising experienced significantly less back pain compared to the control group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of bleeding complications between two groups. Conclusion: The results indicate that a bed side exercising is associated with a reduction of back pain and with no increased risk of bleeding complications in patients after TACE.

An experiment was conducted on eight bullocks of Hariana cattle study draft efficiency using different appliances, changes in their physiological, biochemical and haematological parameters, and how the body tries to maintain these within normal physiological range. Blood collection was done at pre-exercise, three hours after exercise and two hours post exercise in summer and winter seasons of the year 1990-91. Average pulse rate and respiration rate per minute were found to be $63.09{\pm}0.78,\;25.60{\pm}0.54,\;97.21{\pm}2.51,\;63.37{\pm}2.70,\;64.05{\pm}1.90,\;25.33{\pm}1.20$, respectively, at pre-exercise, three hours exercise and two hours post exercise rest. The seasonal differences were found to significant and the values were higher in summer than in winter. After two hours post exercise rest Hariana bullocks regained their normal values for all the parameters, except that pulse rate, respiration rate and serum sodium during summer did not reach the pre - exercise levels.

Purpose: The purpose of our study was to identify the bleeding risk factors and to validate the safety of shortening the bed rest time after bone marrow examination in pediatric hemato-oncologic patients. Methods: From July 2019 to September 2020, 145 patients were enrolled from a single center. Medical records were reviewed retrospectively. Descriptive statistics were presented, and the data were analyzed using 𝑥²-test, Fisher's exact test, and a logistic regression. Results: After two hours of bed rest, most of the patients (91.7%) did not have bleeding complications, and only 8.3% of the patients had a minor bleeding. The rate of major bleeding complications, including hematoma, retroperitoneal hemorrhage rate was zero. The bleeding complications was frequently found on bilateral procedures than unilateral procedures and the difference were statistically significant (p<.05). Conclusion: Two hours of bed rest time after bone marrow examination could be safe and adequate in pediatric hemato-oncologic patients.

Bed rest is recommended to prevent postlumbar puncture headaches(PLPHA), but the period of bed rest varies in the literature from 6 hours to 24 hours. In clinical practice the period of bed rest varies but nursing methods for adults and children have little difference. In Seoul National University Hospital, children have been given at least 6 hours bed rest after a lumbar puncture. Pediatric oncology patients require a lumbar puncture for an initial diagnosis, follow up treatment or administration of chemotherapeutic agent. But it is difficult for young children to lie supine or to refrain from their usual activities in any way, and unpleasant problems related to a shortage of beds often occurs during discharge or in an outpatient setting. The purpose of this study is to substantiate the preventive effect of PLPHA by the period of bed rest, to identify the other factors that influence PLPHA, and to use the nursing methods proper to children. The subjects were 65 children, ages 1-17, undergoing treatment in the children's cancer center at SNUCH during the period June 1, 1995, to Aug. 31, 1995. The team nurses asked questions about PLPHA of the parents and children in order to fill out a questionnaire. The data were evaluated by percent, t-test, Chi-square test and Mann-Whitney U test. Result; 1. There was no significant difference relating the bed rest time spent to the occurrence of postspinal headaches (t-test). 2. There was a significant risk of PLPHA in the children who were irritable before procedure and/or had experienced previous PLPHA(p<0.05, ${x^2}-test$). 3. The following factors were not found to be associated with increased risk of PLPHA: previous puncture experience, giving analgesics, the choice of puncturist, inpatient/outpatient status, gauge of needle, purpose, the amount of CSF removed, gender, diagnosis, the number of peripheral WBCs, previous lumbago experience after LP, position after bed rest, age, the number of aural puncture at the time. A longer period of bed rest is unlikely to be more effective to prevent PLPHA and seems impractical. A shorter period will save time and effort. Perhaps it will also allay some of the fears which surround LP. So 1 hour bed rest after LP is suggested and nursing methods for emotional support should be investigated to reduce PLPH.

항공운송산업의 선진극인 독일에서는 1994년 새로 제정된 근로시간법(Arbeitszeitgesetz)에서 통상 8시간을 1일 최대근로시간으로 규정하여 1주일간 근로시간을 48시간으로 규정하는 한편, 6개월 또는 24주 이내의 기간을 기준으로 1일 평균 8시간을 넘지 않는 범위 내에서 1일 8시간을 초과하여 10시간까지 근로시키는 것을 가능하게 함으로써 변형근로시간제를 채택할 경우 특정 주의 근로시간을 최대 60시간까지 가능하게 하고 있다. 그리고, 근로시간법에서는 1일 근로의 종료에서 다음 근로의 개시까지는 최소 11시간의 휴식시간을 부여하도록 함으로써 근로자가 1일 동안 사용자의 지휘하에 놓이는 시간의 상한을 13시간으로 제한하는 독특한 입법형식을 취하고 있다. 한편, 근로시간법 제5조, 제7조, 제14조, 그리고 제15조에서는 항공기승무원등과 같이 특수한 형태의 근로를 하는 직종에 대해서는 일반원칙의 적용을 배제하는 예외조항을 두고 있으며, 점포영업시간법에서도 특정한 경우에 대해서는 동법의 적용을 배제하는 예외조항을 두고 있다. 이라한 예외규정에 따라 제정된 행정명령인 항공운송사업자에 관한 2차 볍규명령(2.DV LuftBO)에서는 개별 항공기승무원의 블록시간, 비행근무시간, 휴식시간 등에 대해 자세한 제한규정을 설정하고 있다. 특히, 다른 나라에서는 찾아보기 어려운 시차를 고려한 휴식시간 부여기준 연장이라든가 최대비행근로시간을 1일 20시간까지 가능하도록 직접 규정하고 있는 것은 항공기승무원의 건강을 유지할 수 있도록 함으로써 항공안전을 확보하는 한편, 항공운송산업의 현실을 정확히 반영하고 있다. 독일의 이러한 입법방식은 항공기승무원들의 근로시간 및 휴식시간에 대해 근로기준법과 항공법에서 각각 규정함으로써, 일반 업종 근로자들에게 적용되는 근로기준법의 규정과 항공기승무원들의 근로특정을 고려한 항공법의 규정을 중첩적으로 준수하여야 함으로 인해 각종 문제점을 노정하고 있는 우리나라도 참고하고 도입할만한 우수한 입법으로 판단된다. 아울러 향후 제정될 JAR 부속서 Q에도 반영되어 유럽국가 모두에 적용되어야 할 우수한 제도이다.
