Three hundred sixty-two(male 131, female 231) elderly aged over 65 in Chungb- uk area were interviewed to determine the disease states and drug usage patterns. The prebalence of disease was 78% and women reported more chronic diseases(83%) than men(71%). Elderly who live with spouse and have an occupation have a lower rate of disease. Average number of diseases of the elderly was $1.8\pm{1.1}$, and women$(2.1\pm{1.3)}$ have significantly higher average number of diseases than that of men$(1.4\pm{0.7)}$. Also the elderly in urban areas$(2.1\pm{1.4)}$ have significantly higher number of diseases than that of the elderly in rural areas$(1.6\pm{0.9)}$. Arthritis, hypertension, cardiovascular and gastric diseases were the most frequently listed chronic diseases in order for both men and women. Anemia and fracture of bone were relatively higher in women than in men. Particularly, the arthritis of the urban elderly have a rate of 1.5 times higher than that of the rural elderly. Fifty-two percent of the elderly were currently using drugs ; among drug users 71.2% used prescription drugs and 20.5% used nonprescription drugs. The average number taken per person was 2.1$\pm$1.4 and there was no sex or age difference. However, the elderly in rural areas $(2.7\pm{1.7)}$ consumed a significantly higher number of drugs than those in urban areas$(1.7\pm{0.7)}$. The average number of prescripti- on drugs taken was 2.0$\pm$1.4 while the average of nonprescription drugs taken was $(1.3\pm{0.6)}$. Analgesics and antihypertensive drugs were most commonly used. Vitamin and analgesics were the most frequently used self-prescribed drugs. It was noted that potential adverse drug interaction by concominant drug consumption for arthritis and antihypensive drug, abuse of digestants and antiacid without treatment of the underlying disease, and misuse of quick-acting bowel medications were problematic for the elderly. In addition drugs used for the elderly have some adverse effect on the digestive system. The types and composition of drugs used by the elderly were identified and presented. Medication compliance was poor and 13.5% reported adverse reactions such as edema, heartburn, nausea, and difficulty with eating. Seventeen percent of the elderly obtained drugs arranged by those other than medical staff. Also, even among those elderly who obtained drugs prescribed by a doctor, 69.1% of subjects had not receive instruction about potential adverse reactions. These results suggest that nutritional problems related to drug usage might exist and so dietitians, either individually or as members of health teams, need to have a better understanding of drug-nutrient interaction and closer supervision, and drug information/education service should therefore be provided to prevent or minimize adverse drug reaction in elderly users of medication.

This study was attempted to suggest fundamental data to take health care plan in terms of oriental medicine by evaluating the health-related quality of life according to the Sasang constitutional medicine (SCM) of factory workers. General characteristics, living habits, and health-related quality of life were investigated through self-administration questionnaire in the course of oriental health examination for 1,870 male workers at a manufacturing company located in the Jeollabuk-do region, and the Sasang constitution of each worker was identified and analyzed through questionnaires and oriental doctor's medical examination. For Sasang constitutional medicine, So-eum person(少陰人) was found to be the most, and then So-yang preson(少陽人), Tai-eum preson(太陰人), and Tai-yang preson(太陽人) in order; for lifestyle, smokers were most found in So-yang person workers, non-smokers in Tai-yang person workers, drinkers in Tai-yang person workers, and non-drinkers in So-eum person workers. For the general health score by the Sasang constitutions, Tai-yang person workers were found to be 42.73 in general health area, Tai-eum preson workers 41.69, So-yang person workers 40.87, and So-eum person workers 40.42; in the vitality area, Tai-eum person workers were found to be 45.14, So-yang person workers 44.16, So-eum person workers 43.02, and Tai-yang person workers 41.34. Specially, it was found that regular exercise improved physical health factors, drinking adversely affected mental health factors, and the mental health factors of Tai-eum person workers who have regularly exercised showed the highest values, while those of Tai-yang person workers who have not exercised showed the lowest values. There was difference in lifestyle by Sasang constitutions, and accordingly, the quality of life might be different Therefore it is deemed that health care plan is required to be taken by Sasang constitutions and lifestyle for health promotion and care of blue-collar workers in the future.

Purpose : Skip the repetitive HRCT axial scan in order to reduce the exposure of patients during chest HRCT scan, Helical Scan Data into a reconstructed image, and exposure of the patient change and visually evaluate the usefulness of the HRCT images. Materials and method : Patients were enrolled in the survey are 50 people who underwent chest CT scans of patients who presented to the hospital from January 2015 to March 2015. 50 people surveyed 22 people men and 28 people women people showed an average distribution of 30 to 80 years age was 48 years. 50 patients to Somatom Sensation 64 ch (Siemens) model with 120 kVp tube voltage to a reference mAs tube current to mAs (Care dose, Siemens) as a whole, including the lungs and the chest CT scan was performed. Scan upon each patient CARE dose 4D (Automatic exposure control, Siemens Medical Solution Erlangen, Germany) was to maintain the proper radiation dose scan every cross-section through a device that automatically adjusts the tube current of. CT scan is the rotation time of the Tube slice collimation, slice width 0.6 mm, pitch factor was made under the terms of 1.4. CT scan obtained after the raw data (raw data) to the upper surface of the axial images and coronal images for each slice thickness 1 mm, 5 mm intervals in the high spatial frequency calculation method (hight spatial resolution algorithm, B60 sharp) was the use of the lung window center -500 HU, windows were reconstructed into images in the interval -1000 HU to see. Result : 1. Measure the total value of DLP 50 patients who proceed to chest CT group A (Helical Scan after scan performed with HRCT) and group B (Helical Scan after the HR image reconstruction to the original data) compared with the group divided, analysis As a result of the age, but show little difference for each age group it had a decreased average dose of about 9%. 2. A Radiation read the results of the two Radiologist and a doctor upper lobe and middle lobe of the lung takes effect the visual evaluation is not a big difference between the two images both, depending on the age of the patient, especially if the blood vessels of the lower lobe (A: 3.4, B: 4.6) and bronchi(A: 3.8, B4.7) image shake caused by breathing in anxiety (blurring lead) to the original data (raw data) showed that the reconstructed image is been more useful in diagnostic terms. Conclusion : Scan was confirmed a continuous, rapid motion video to get Helical scan is much lower lobe lung reduction in visual blurring, Helical scan data to not repeat the examination by obtaining HRCT images reorganization reduced the exposure of the patient.

This study was conducted to investigate the kinds of health promotion program which workers want, worker's intention for participation, proper method, time, duration and manager. A self-administered questionnaire method was used to collect data from 412 employees of 3 worksites in Chungpook and Kyungkee. This survey was carried out from Aug. 10 to Aug. 20, 1998. The results of this study are as follows: 1. In male, among health promotion programs, favorite ones were physical fitness(32.2%), periodic health check-up(24.6%), and stress management(18.0%). In female, among health promotion programs, favorite ones were periodic health check-up(26.0%), physical fitness(22.0%), and body weight control(19.5%). 2. The more young subjects are, the more they like physical fitness program, and the female like body weight control program regardless of BMI. Manufacturing worker preferred back pain prevention program to clerical worker did. In female, drinker preferred stress management program to non-drinker did. 3. The more old subjects are, the more they like back pain prevention program, and non-smoker preferred body weight control program to smoker did. 4. In health promotion program format which the subjects wanted, learning of self-examination techniques was 41.1%, worksite screening was 3l.0%, availability of pamphlets and audiovisual materials was 20.0%, presentation of worksite educational sessions was 7.9%, and the most wanted manager for the program was medical doctor and then nurse, physical trainer, psychological counselor. The favorite health promotion program duration was less than 30 minutes(49.6%), and the favorite time was before work(49.6%). 5. Among respondents, 48.5% was smokers, 81.8% was drinkers, 39.9% engaged in the regular exercise, 68.2% engaged in regular diet habit. In vaccination, 50.2%, if possible, wanted to be vaccinated and 37.6% never wanted to be vaccinated. 6. Ex-smoker, ex-drinker, the subjects in the regular exercise, and in the regular diet habit responded they were in good health. There was a significant difference between exercise and health status. Need and intention for participation of health promotion program were high in ex-smoker, ex-drinker, the subjects in the regular exercise, and in the regular diet habit. According to results for this study, if the favorite programs, exercise, periodic health check-up, stress management program, are operated at a proper time and with managers they want, this programs can really raise the participation of employees. And as employees want to learn self-examination techniques if worksite educational sessions are performed, health promotion program can effectively be operated.

현재 대한민국의 의료 기술과 의료 서비스는 세계 어디에서도 뒤처지지 않을 정도로 세계적인 수준을 자랑하고 있다. 하지만 이러한 의료서비스는 아직까지 환자중심이 아닌 병원 또는 의료진을 중심으로 이루어져 있으며 조금씩 환자 중심의 의료 서비스로 변화하고 있는 추세이다. 한국보건사회 연구원의 조사 결과에 따르면 2016년 현재 병원 입원 환자 중 30%이상이 회진과 관련된 정보를 충분히 제공받지 못했고 특히 2~30대 환자의 50%이상이 불만을 표시 하였고 70대 이상에서는 17% 정도가 불만을 표시 했다고 한다. 이러한 자료를 비추어 볼 때 특히 2~30대가 회진등과 관련된 정보를 바라고 있으며 이들은 스마트 폰 사용에 익숙하다는 특징을 고려하여 회진정보 스마트 폰 애플리케이션을 설계 구현하고자 한다. 현재 일부 중 대형 병원에서는 스마트 폰 애플리케이션을 통해서 병원 정보를 제공하고 있으나 병원 안내 또는 외래환자의 진료 예약 등이 주요 목적이며 회진 정보를 제공하는 경우에도 대략적인 회진 시간만을 제공하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스마트 폰에 있는 NFC 기능을 활용해서 회진 시 자신의 순서를 확인할 수 있는 병원 회진 안내 시스템을 설계 및 구현 하고자 한다.

Background: In order to find out the effect of therapy methods through Flexion-distraction technique and drop technique on pain, sacral angle of patients with lumbar herniated intervertebral disc targeting patients with lumbar herniated intervertebral disc due to L5-S1. Method: This study was to present the directivity of the therapy method for lumbar herniated intervertebral disc by comparing and analyzing the spinal decompression therapy and provide an effective treatment method to patients with lumbar herniated intervertebral disc by identifying the therapeutic effect of Flexion-distraction technique and drop technique. The research period is March 1, 2018 to June 30, 2018 and subjects are the patients diagnosed as lumbar herniated intervertebral disc due to L5-S1 by their doctor through clinical findings and medical equipment such as X-ray, CT, MRI etc. Among patients who visited and hospitalized in S Orthopaedics located in Daegu and 30 female patients with sacral angle of more than $30^{\circ}$ were randomly classified into 15 people and we carried out treatment three times a week for 8 weeks for 15 people in the experimental group applying Flexion-distraction technique and drop technique and 15 people in the control group applying spinal decompression therapy to compare and analyze the changes in pain, sacral angle of patients with lumbar herniated intervertebral disc. Result: According to the results of this study, changes in the Visual Analogue Scale showed statistically significant differences in both the experimental group and control group(p<.05), while there was statistically significant difference in the comparison between groups before and after measurement of experimental group (p<.05). In the comparison within two groups of sacral angle, both groups showed statistically significant difference(p<.05) but there was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of scores between groups before and after measurement of each group(p>.05). Discussion: All those results the above proved that we need to confirm various benefits of the therapy with the flexion-distraction technique and drop technique, and the findings of the concerned study will possibly become useful information when doctors actually work on a therapy to treat patients with the lumbar herniated intervertebral disc.

인간의 존엄성과 환자의 자율성에 터잡아 연명의료의 중단이 제도화된 이래, 최근에는 스스로 존엄하게 죽음에 이르기 위해 환자가 자기 생명을 단축시키고자 의료적 도움을 받을 권리가 있는지, 그러한 행위가 어느 범위에서 정당화될 수 있는지의 문제가 활발하게 논의되고 있다. 우리나라에서는 2016년 연명의료결정법의 제정으로 연명의료중단이 제도화된 이래 여러 차례 개정을 거쳤는데, 최근에는 '조력존엄사'를 합법화하기 위한 내용의 연명의료결정법 개정안이 발의되었다. 이번 개정안에서는 조력존엄사를 '환자의 의사로 담당의사의 조력을 통해 스스로 삶을 종결하는 것'으로 정의하고 있는데, 이는 네덜란드, 벨기에 등의 유럽 국가와 미국 일부 주에서 시행되고 있는 조력사망(Aid in Dying)에 해당하는 내용으로 보인다. 조력사망이란 의사결정능력이 있는 환자가 치료가 불가능한 질병으로 고통을 받고 있을 때 환자가 사망을 앞당길 수 있는 약물을 의사로부터 처방받아 이를 이용하여 사망에 이르는 것을 의미한다. 존엄사에 대한 논의는 연명의료중단에서 조력사망의 순서로 진행되는 것이 세계적 추세인데, 2000년대에 이르러 일부 국가에서는 조력사망, 나아가 적극적 안락사까지 합법화하였다. 미국에서는 오리건 주를 필두로 여러 주에서 조력사망을 인정하는 법률을 두고 있지만 적극적 안락사에 대해서는 금지하고 있다. 이 논문에서는 일찌기 존엄한 죽음에 관한 논의를 시작하여 환자의 자기결정권을 제도화한 미국의 일부 주에서 조력사망의 입법화가 어떤 과정을 거쳐 이루어졌는지를 살펴보고 캘리포니아의 임종선택법의 주요 내용과 법시행 이후의 결과를 분석하였다.

정신질환자는 대체로 병식이 전혀 없거나 자발적 치료의지가 없는데, 그에 따라 치료가 어렵고 그 고통은 주로 가족에게 전가된다. 그에 따라 환자를 직접 대면하여 진료하지 않고 가족과의 면담을 통해 예후를 관찰하여 진단하는 비대면진료 및 가족을 통해 몰래 투약이 이루어지는 비고지투약이 이루어질 수 있고, 이는 필요악으로 여겨지기도 했다. 이러한 정신건강의학과 진료의 특수성이나 가족들이 받는 고통 등 현실적인 측면을 고려하더라도 환자 몰래 약을 투약하는 등 동의 없는 치료는 의료법 위반은 물론 강제입원처럼 정신질환자에 대한 인권침해의 소지가 크다. 무엇보다도 이를 뒤늦게 환자가 알게 되는 경우에는 환자와 가족, 의사 사이의 신뢰가 완전히 깨지고 치료를 절대적으로 거부하는 상황이 발생한다. 여러 사정을 고려하여 그 예외적 허용요건을 제시한 일본의 치바(千葉)판결은 구체적 타당성을 도모하는 하나의 해결책이 될 수도 있다. 그러나 비고지투약을 예외적으로 허용하고 이를 일시적인 조치로서 허용하려는 의도와 달리 이는 현실적으로 장기적인 비고지투약으로 이어지고 치료적 대화를 통한 치료 및 투약은 완전히 단절될 수 있다는 점을 감안할 때 올바른 해결책이 아니다. 결국, 치료적 대화의 복원을 통해 이 문제를 근본적으로 접근하고 대안을 모색할 필요가 있다.
