Purpose: This research was conducted to evaluate the effects of asystemic follow-up care program on health promotion and risk reduction in 64 high-risk infants(HRI) including premature infants and their mothers. Method: The intervention consisted of systemic NICU education, tele-counseling and 3 home visits in 6 months. The subjects were divided into either the intervention group or the control group receiving the conventional NICU education without the tele-counseling and home visiting. Infant health promotion was measured using physical assessment, types of health problems, reflexes, OPD visiting history, DDST, immunization, feeding assessment, Infant death rate, etc. Maternal self-esteem, postpartum depression and family function were measured using the maternal self-report inventory(MRI), EPDS, and family apgar score(Fapgar), retrospectively. Result: All premature infants in the intervention group were in the normal range of growth and development, and the regular vaccination schedule. The health problems in the intervention group were addressed early so not to develop into adverse effects. The follow-up program for 6 months showed beneficial effects on MRI, EPDS, and Fapgar. Conclusion: A systemic follow-up health care program is beneficial on health promotion and risk reduction in 64 HRI including premature infants and their mothers.

A study of the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of two doses of lot H(10, 20 mcg), two doses of lot L (20, 40 mcg) of the Smith Kline-RIT recombinant DNA yeast-derived hepatitis B vaccine and a 20-mcg dose of the Merck Sharp and Dohme plasma-derived hepatitis B vaccine was conducted in young adults under randomized, double-blind conditions. Immunization was carried out according to a 0-, 1-, and 6-month vaccination schedule. Results indicated that the yeast-derived hepatitis B vaccine was well tolerated and immunogenic. Reactogenicity to both yeast- and plasma-derived vaccines was mild in severity and low in incidence with no significant differences appearing between the study groups. One month after the third dose, the yeast-derived vaccines induced a high degree of soroconversion ranging between 95.0% and 100%. The response was not lot or dose-dependent. The administration of the plasma-derived vaccine resulted in anti-HBs geometric mean titres statistically signifirantly higher than those elicited by the different yeast-derived hepatitis B vaccines one month after the third dose of vaccine but the difference was not large enough to be of great clinical significance.

Objective: To describe patterns of spontaneous reporting on adverse events following immunization (AEFIs) using the human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine according to the Brighton Collaboration (BC) criteria. Methods: We used the Korea Adverse Event Reporting System (KAERS) database including vaccinations between 2008 and 2017. To apply BC criteria, we classified 58 BC AEFIs into World Health Organization Adverse Reaction Terminology (WHO-ART) codes. We applied MedDRA standard medical queries that were pre-defined as five BC AEFIs. Terminology mapping between MedDRA and WHO-ART terms was performed by three researchers. Descriptive statistics of individual case safety reports were analyzed according to BC applicability. Disproportionality analyses were performed on each BC AEFI and each preferred AEFI term according to the case-noncase approach; reporting odds ratio (ROR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. Results: Among the 30,266 reports of vaccinations between 2008 and 2017, 2,845 reports included the HPV vaccine. Of these reports, 1,511 (53.1%) included at least one BC AEFI. Reports from physicians or manufacturers included more BC AEFIs than from other reporters. Injection site reactions and fever were frequently reported in BC AEFIs; spontaneous abortion and ectopic pregnancy (ROR, 14.29 [95% CI, 4.30-47.49]) and vasculitic peripheral neuropathy (ROR, 8.57 [95% CI, 2.61-28.10]) showed the highest ROR. Among non-BC AEFIs, dizziness or myalgia were frequently reported; exposure during pregnancy (ROR, 23.95 [95% CI, 16.27-35.25]) and inappropriate schedule of administration (ROR, 22.89 [95% CI, 16.74-31.31]) showed the highest ROR. Conclusion: BC criteria would be applicable for labeled AEFIs, whereas analyzing non-BC AEFIs would be useful for detecting unlabeled AEFIs.

Home visiting as a Public Health Horsing function is believed to be of therapeutic value to, the patient. However, home visiting is time consuming and expensive. Is the gain in knowledge and treatment for patients with Tuberculosis in Korea enough to make the necessary outlay in finances and personnel worthwhile\ulcorner While this study does not attempt to completely answer this question it does, under the following objectives, attempt to answer part of the question. The objectives of the study were to l) ascertain if there is a difference between patients, who receive home visits from the public Health Nurse and those who do not, in the following areas: a) their compliance with medical regimen, b) their ability to answer general questions about Tuberculosis, and c) their compliance with medical advice concerning prevention (B.C.G. immunization) and early diagnosis (contact X-rays), and 2) to determine if there is any correlation between the patient's answers to questions about Tuberculosis and his action both in the areas of treatment and prevention. The patients participating in the study were all newly diagnosed patients at Kwangju Christian Hospital. A control group and an experimental group were selected. The patients in the control group were seen according to the regular schedule at the Kwangju Christian Hospital except that they received no home visits from the Public Health Nurses. The patients in the experimental group were visited on an average of three times during the first two months of their treatment by the investigator, a Public Health Nurse. At the end of two months the patients in the two groups were compared as to compliance both in the treatment and preventive areas. They were also compared according to their answers to a questionnaire regarding both the prevention and treatment of Tuberculosis. The following results were obtained : 1. Patients in the experimental group (68.2%) showed a significantly higher compliance rate for medical treatment than patients in the control group (43.2%). 2. Patients in the experimental group (87.5%) showed a higher compliance rate for B.C.G. immunization than those in the control group (40%). 3. Women patients in the experimental group showed a higher mean score (7.2$\pm$2.6) on the questionnaire than did women in the control group (6.2$\pm$3.4). The results of this study seem to indicate that while home visiting is beneficial to the patient with Tuberculosis as far as treatment is concerned, something more concrete needs to be done if home visiting is to help the patient learn more about Tuberculosis and its prevention. Further study is indicated in the following areas: 1) A similar type of study over a longer period of time involving more subjects and using Korean Public Health Nurses to make the home visits. 2) Study to develop an adequate approach to education considering the problems unique to patients with Tuberculosis living in Korea.

Background: To determine the level of knowledge on human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and vaccination, and the attitude towards HPV vaccination in pediatricians, obstetricians and gynecologists (OBG). Materials and Methods: Participants were administered a 40-question survey, investigating the demographic properties, the knowledge on the HPV infection-vaccination and attitudes towards vaccination. Results: The study enrolled a total of 228 participants (131 pediatricians and 97 OBGs). At a rate of 99.6%, the participants agreed with the fact that the HPV infection was the most common sexually transmitted disease and 33.8% of the participants had the opinion that the HPV vaccination should be administered only in women. The lowest level of HPV vaccine recommendation was among the pediatrics specialists (59.4%, p=0.012). When asked whether they would have their daughters receive HPV vaccination, 79.5% of the participants answered favorably; this rate was 36.7% for the sons. At a rate of 59.5% of the participants thought that the HPV vaccine needed to be included in the national vaccine schedule. Most of the participants (91.6%) had the idea that reduction of the vaccine costs would increase the vaccination frequency. Conclusions: We observed that the consideration of the costs and the prejudices relating to the inefficacy of vaccination as well as the inadequate level of knowledge were involved in the physicians' resistance to HPV vaccination. We believe that the healthcare professionals should be informed adequately to overcome false beliefs, thereby ensuring success of the HPV vaccine upon inclusion in the national vaccine schedule in the future.

목 적 : 국내에서 사용되고 일본뇌염 바이러스 백신에 대한 야외 실험을 실시하여 국내 백신 제조에 사용되는 Nakayama-NIH주의 국내 접종자에 대한 항체 생성율 및 중화 항체의 지속율을 조사하고, 일본뇌염 접종 스케줄의 재조정 및 국내 면역 집단의 민감도 조사 등을 통하여 방역 대책의 기초 자료로 활용하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 일본뇌염 백신의 면역효과 및 항체지속 기간을 알아보고자 1994년부터 계속 사업으로 강화군에 소재하고 있는 K 초등학교 학생들을 대상으로 조사를 실시하였다. 대상자들의 혈액을 시기에 따라 채혈하여 hemagglutination inhibition test (HI) 및 plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT)를 실시하여 항체가를 조사하였다. 결 과 : 총 조사 대상자 213명은 이미 기초 접종이 끝난 자들로서 HI 항체가는 '95년 4월 백신 면역전에 이미 63.4%가 1:10 이상의 항체가를 가지고 있었으며 중화항체가는 전원이 1:20 이상의 항체가를 가지고 있었다. '95년 백신 접종 후 12개월이 지난 1996년 4월까지 HI 항체가 1:20 이상이 55.7%이며, 중화항체가는 전원이 1:20 이상을 보유하고 있었다. 이들에게 1996년 4월에 재접종 후 6개월째에는 HI 항체가가 1:10 이상이 69.7%로 증가하였고 G.M.T값은 1:11.6에서 1:13.23, 중화 항체의 G.M.T는 1:275.7에서 1:348.1로 증가하였다. 결 론 :위의 실험 결과에 따르면 현재 국내에서 사용중인 불활화 일본뇌염 백신은 자연계 에서 일본뇌염 바이러스가 공격하는 $10^5$ $LD_{50}$를 막을 수 있는 중화항체가 1:20을 기본면역 1회로 1년 이상 유지하고 있었으며, 충분한 boosting 효과를 보이고 있었다. 따라서 일본뇌염 백신의 추가면역은 기본접종후 개인의 상태에 따라 2~3년 간격의 추가접종이 적절하다 고 생각된다.

목 적 : b형 Haemophilus influenzae(Hib)의 피막 다당질인 polyribosyl -ribitol-phosphate(PRP)가 Hib 질환의 발병기전에 중요한 역할을 하며, 이에 대한 항체가 있으면 Hib 질환을 예방할 수 있다. Hib 질환을 예방하기 위해 개발된 단백 결합 백신에는 PRP-D, PRP-T, PRP-OMP 및 PRP-CRM197 등이 있다. Hib 피막 다당질에 대한 항체 반응은 백신에 사용된 결합 단백의 종류에 따라 다르지만 인종이나 제조 회사에 따라서 유효성 및 안전성에 차이가 있을 수 있다. PRP-T에는 기존에 국내에 공급되던 $ActHib^{(R)}$(Aventis)와 최근에 국내에 도입되기 시작한 $Hiberix^{TM}$(GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals)가 있다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라 영아에서 PRP-T 백신인 $Hiberix^{TM}$의 면역원성 및 안전성을 평가하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 2001년 3월부터 2002년 4월까지 소아과에 예방접종을 위해 내원한 건강한 생후 2개월 이상의 영아 73명(남아 43명)을 대상으로 하였다. 생후 2, 4, 6개월에 PRP-T 백신($Hiberix^{TM}$)을 필요한 경우에 DTaP, TOPV, B형 간염백신과 같이 접종하였고, 1회 접종 전(2개월), 2회 접종 2개월 후(생후 6개월) 그리고 3회 접종 1개월 후(생후 7개월)에 혈청내 항 PRP 항체가를 효소면역법(ELISA)으로 측정하였다. 매 접종 후 72시간내에 발생하는 국소적, 전신적 이상반응을 관찰하였다. 면역원성은 계획한대로 접종을 완료한 영아에 대하여 분석하였으며, 이상반응은 1회 이상 접종받은 모든 영아에 대하여 분석하였다. 결 과 : 73명 중 63명(남아 37명)이 계획한대로 접종을 완료하였다. 생후 2개월에 측정한 접종 전항 PRP 항체가의 기하 평균치는 0.17 ${\mu}g/mL$(95% CI; 0.13~0.22)이었다. 2회 접종 후(생후 6개월) 항체가의 기하 평균치는 4.14 ${\mu}g/mL$(95% CI; 2.65~6.48), 3회 접종 후(생후 7개월)의 기하 평균치는 14.65 ${\mu}g/mL$(95% CI; 10.83~19.81)이었다. 항체가가 1.0 ${\mu}g/mL$ 이상인 비율은 2회 접종 후 77.8% (95% CI; 67.5~88.0), 3회 접종 후 98.4%(95% CI;95.3~100)이었다. 백신 접종 후 발생한 이상반응중 전신반응으로서 보챔(45.5%)이 가장 많았고 졸음(30.5%), 수유감소(26.7%), 발열(5.6%) 순이었다. 국소반응으로서 동통이 7.9%, 발적(${\geq}5$ mm) 2.8%, 부종(${\geq}5$ mm) 1.8% 순이었다. 이러한 이상반응은 대부분 경증으로 모두 회복되었다. 결 론 : 결론적으로, PRP-T 백신인 $Hiberix^{TM}$는 우리나라 영아에서 우수한 면역원성과 안전성을 보였으며, 특히 2회 접종으로도 항체가의 기하 평균치가 장기적인 방어 수준으로 상승함은 과거의 다른 PRP-T 백신($ActHib^{(R)}$)의 연구 결과들과 일치하는 소견으로 향후 국내에서 PRP-T 백신의 접종 방법에 대한 재고가 필요하다고 사료된다.

Objectives: To evaluate the learning achievement and satisfaction levels for the Field Epidemiology Specialist Training Program (FESTP), on infectious disease control between March 19 and October 31, 2002. Methods : The FESTP was designed as a set of 84 hours curricula including lectures, discussions, self-studies, and field practicals, and organized both centrally and locally by the Division of Communicable Disease Control of the National Institute of Health and 11 universities. Before and after the program, a questionnaire survey on the educational need (49 items) and satisfaction (15 items) was conducted on 484 trainees, who were responsible for communicable disease control and immunization at 242 regional health centers. The data were analyzed with paired t-tests for comparison of the educational needs between the pre and post scores. Results : The average score for satisfaction was 3.06 out of 5.0; with relatively higher scores for sincerity (4.10) and professionalism (4.01) of the tutors, adequacy (3.54) and clearness (3.51) of the evaluation criteria, usefulness (3.54) and fitness (3.52) of the contents, but with relatively lower satisfaction for schedule (2.96) and self-studies (2.91). The average for requirement for education improved, as shown by the decrease from 2.72 to 2.22 (p<.0001) with the biggest decrease in the outbreak investigation from 2.60 to 2.08. Conclusion : The FESTP was evaluated as being effective, the trainees showed moderate satisfaction and decrease educational needs. However, the actual schedules and self-studies should be rearranged to improve the satisfaction level.
