Purpose: This study was to identify nursing diagnosis-outcome-intervention (NANDA- NOC-NIC: NNN) linkages applied to inpatients in general surgical nursing units. Methods: We developed the NNN linkage computerized nursing process program, which consisted of the 107 nursing outcomes and the 190 nursing interventions linked to the 39 nursing diagnoses. This program was applied to 324 patients who admitted to those nursing units from July, 2004 to February, 2005. Results: First, nursing outcomes of each nursing diagnosis were identified as follows: for 'acute pain', pain control, pain level, and comfort level; for 'risk for infection', wound healing: primary intention, wound healing: secondary intention, and infection status; for 'nausea', nutritional status: food & fluid intake, comfort level, symptom severity and hydration. Second, major nursing interventions for each nursing outcome were analyzed as follows: for pain control or comfort level, pain management and medication management; for pain level, pain management and analgesic administration; for wound healing: primary intention, incision site care and wound care; for Wound healing: secondary intention or infection status, infection control; for nutritional status: food & fluid intake, fluid monitoring; for comfort level, nausea management; for symptom severity, nausea management and vomiting management; for hydration, fluid/electrolyte management. Conclusion: This identified NNN linkages will facilitate the use of nursing process in surgical nursing practice and documentation systems.

In human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients, Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PCP) is a well-known opportunistic infection and its management has been established. However, PCP is an emerging threat to immunocompromised patients without HIV infection, such as those receiving novel immunosuppressive therapeutics for malignancy, organ transplantation, or connective tissue diseases. Clinical manifestations of PCP are quite different between patients with and without HIV infections. In patients without HIV infection, PCP rapidly progresses, is difficult to diagnose correctly, and causes severe respiratory failure with a poor prognosis. High-resolution computed tomography findings are different between PCP patients with HIV infection and those without. These differences in clinical and radiological features are due to severe or dysregulated inflammatory responses that are evoked by a relatively small number of Pneumocystis organisms in patients without HIV infection. In recent years, the usefulness of polymerase chain reaction and serum β-D-glucan assay for rapid and non-invasive diagnosis of PCP has been revealed. Although corticosteroid adjunctive to anti-Pneumocystis agents has been shown to be beneficial in some populations, the optimal dose and duration remain to be determined. Recent investigations revealed that Pneumocystis colonization is prevalent and that asymptomatic carriers are at risk for developing PCP and can serve as the reservoir for the spread of Pneumocystis by airborne transmission. These findings suggest the need for chemoprophylaxis in immunocompromised patients as well as infection control measures, although the indications remain controversial. Because a variety of novel immunosuppressive therapeutics have been emerging in medical practice, further innovations in the diagnosis and treatment of PCP are needed.

Purpose: This study was conducted to compare the level of health concern and the health practice of adult women depending on their experiences with cosmetic tattooing. Methods: The participants were 396 adult women in Jeonnam and Jeonbuk Provinces and G City. Their levels of health concern were measured using the 5-point-5-item scale designed by Kim. For measuring their health practice, the 5-point-12-item scale designed by Kwak was used. Results: The percentage of cosmetic tattooed women was 58.8%. The average score of their health concern was 3.12 and that of their health practice 3.54. As for their levels of health concern, no differences were observed between those with cosmetic tattoo experience and those without. However, the group with cosmetic tattoo experience exhibited a higher level of health practice. Also, most members of the cosmetic tattooed group decided to visit their tattoo shops based on the availability of tattoo shapes or prices rather than considering infection risks. Conclusion: Health education is necessary to increase people's sensitivity to infection. This study shows that urgent attention for the management and regulation of the relevant ministries is required. Also, this study provides foundational information that will serve health education.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate awareness and performance of infection control by dental hygienist. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was answered by 239 dental hygienists working in dental clinics from September 7 to 18, 2016 in Gwangju city & Jeonnam region after explaining the purpose of the study and receiving the informed consent. The questionnaire consisted of sociodemographic characteristics and awareness and performance of infection control using Likert 4 point scale. Results: Average of Infection control awareness was $3.33{\pm}0.38$, average of infection control Performance was $3.04{\pm}0.37$ (p<0.05). The awareness and practice of dental equipment management showed the largest difference. The awareness of infection control by general characteristics varied according to position, number of dental units, number of employees, Infection control needs, Received infection control training experience, infection experience, infection control guideline (p<0.05). The relationship between infection control awareness and Infection control performance was r = 0.624 (p<0.001), indicating positive correlation. Conclusions: To improve awareness and performance of dental hygienist's infection control, regular received infection control training experience is needed. It is considered that the dentist's active cooperation is needed in shortening the life span of the dental equipment due to the Infection control performance and securing the quantity.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common cancer worldwide and the fourth most common cancer among men in South Korea, where the prevalence of chronic hepatitis B infection is high in middle and old age. The current practice guidelines will provide useful and sensible advice for the clinical management of patients with HCC. A total of 49 experts in the fields of hepatology, oncology, surgery, radiology, and radiation oncology from the Korean Liver Cancer Association-National Cancer Center Korea Practice Guideline Revision Committee revised the 2018 Korean guidelines and developed new recommendations that integrate the most up-to-date research findings and expert opinions. These guidelines provide useful information and direction for all clinicians, trainees, and researchers in the diagnosis and treatment of HCC.

구강진료기관에서의 개인방호의 중요성을 일깨우기 위해 보건대학 치위생과 3학년 재학생을 대상으로 치면세마와 엑스선 촬영 실습 수행과정에서 감염관리 및 엑스선안전관리에 대한 실천 정도를 조사하여 아래와 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 치면세마 실습시에는 감염관리에 대해 높은 수준으로 인식하고 철저히 수행하고 있었다. 2. 엑스선촬영 실습시에 감염관리의 필요성에 대한 인식 정도는 비교적 낮았다. 3. 엑스선촬영 실습시에는 필름유지기구를 제외하고는 거의 감염관리를 하지 않고 있었다. 4. 엑스선촬영 실습시에 엑스선안전관리에 대해서는 높은 수준으로 인식하고 실천하고 있었다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때 엑스선촬영시에는 거의 감염관리가 이루어지지 않고 있다는 것을 알 수 있다. 완벽한 감염관리를 위해 엑스선촬영시에도 철저한 감염관리가 이루어질 수 있도록 필요성에 대한 인식제고와 실천율을 높일 수 있는 교육의 강화가 요구된다.

본 연구의 목적은 코로나19 상황에서 임상간호사의 간호업무수행에 영향을 주는 영향요인을 파악하여 간호업무수행 향상을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 시도되었다. 본 연구는 서술적 연구로서 G시에서 임상간호사로 근무하고 있는 119명을 대상으로 2022년 6월 15일부터 7월 20일까지 설문지를 이용하여 자료수집 하였다. 분석을 위해 서술적 통계, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, Multiple regression으로 분석하였다. 연구결과, 감염관리수행(r=.553, p<.001), 회복탄력성(r=.286, p<.001)이 간호업무수행에 통계적으로 유의한 상관관계를 보였다. 임상간호사의 간호업무 수행에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 감염관리수행(B=.529, p<.001)이 18.3% 설명력을 나타냈다. 이와 같은 결과는 코로나19 유행상황에서 코로나19 감염관리 자체가 간호업무수행에 새로운 업무부담으로 작용했기 때문으로 생각된다. 반면 회복탄력성과 직무스트레스가 영향력을 미치지 못하였다. 그러나, 본 연구대상자의 직무스트레스가 매우 높아 임상간호사의 주기적인 상담을 통해 임상간호사의 직무스트레스를 낮추어 양질의 간호업무 수행이 가능하게 해야 할 것이다.

본 연구에서는 IPA를 이용한 물리치료사의 감염관리 의식과 수행능력을 분석하였다. 4개 영역은 손위생, 개인관리, 진료실 환경, 감염관리 교육으로 구분하고 인식과 실천에 대한 설문조사를 하였다. 일반적인 특성은 빈도분석하고 인지도와 수행도는 대응표본 t-test와 Pearson's correlation를 통해 분석하였다. 손위생은 둘다 높았고 감염관리 교육은 수행도는 높으나 인지도가 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 치료실 환경의 수행도는 높았으나 인지도가 낮았고 개인관리의 둘다 낮았다. 따라서 본 연구를 바탕으로 감염관리 교육은 인지도를 개선해야 하는 정책 치료실 환경은 수행도를 개선해야 하는 전략, 개인 관리는 수행도와 인지도를 동시에 개선해야 하는 전략이 필요하다.
