Purpose: This study is designed to develop performance guidelines for temporary residential facilities inside and outside the building to improve the residential habit of the victims caused by a disaster. Method: Performance items were set up by analyzing the disaster response system and prior study for eliciting performance guidelines and conducting field surveys of temporary housing facilities and interviews of temporary residential facilities for eliciting relevant performance guidelines. Results: The performance of temporary housing facilities in and out of the country was largely classified as technical, environmental and social, and each presented performance guidelines. The derived performance guidelines were generally similar, although some were similar due to indoor/outdoor characteristics. Conclusion: The performance guidelines presented in this study to improve the residential habit of the victims are applied in practice, and continuous improvement through feedback of results is required.

Severe sepsis is the most common cause of death among critically ill patients in non-coronary intensive care units. In 2002, the guideline titled "Surviving Sepsis Campaign" was published by American and European Critical Care Medicine to decrease the mortality of severe sepsis and septic shock patients, which has been the basis of the treatment for those patients. After the first revised guidelines were published on 2008, the most current version was published in 2013 based on the updated literature of until fall 2012. Other important revised guidelines in critical care field such as 'Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Management of Pain, Agitation, and Delirium in Adult Patients in the Intensive Care Unit' were revised in 2013. This article will review the revised guidelines and several additional interesting published papers of until March 2014, including the part of ventilator-induced lung injury and the preventive strategies.

Acute pancreatitis is a common gastrointestinal disease that is associated with significant morbidity and consumes enormous health care resources. As such, it requires up-to-date evidence-based diagnosis and standard treatment guidelines with broad support from the clinician. Korean Pancreatobiliary Association has developed clinical practice guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of acute pancreatitis to provide a framework for clinicians to manage acute pancreatitis and to improve national health care. The guidelines were divided into four parts: the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis, the assessment of the severity, the initial management, and the treatment of necrotizing pancreatitis and local complications of acute pancreatitis. In this article, we summarize and present the diagnosis and treatment guidelines for acute pancreatitis established in Korea.

The purpose of this study is to suggest the direction of korean universities' research ethics guidelines in line with the changing research environment. To this end, the relationship between research data management and research integrity was identified by analyzing domestic and international research ethics guidelines and principles related to research integrity, and the current status of research data-related guidelines of overseas research colleges was confirmed. Comparing the results of this analysis with the statistical results of the contents related to "research data" in the university research ethics guidelines for 204 four-year universities in Korea, this study drew implications for securing research ethics, which are national research ethics guidelines, and for aspects related to research data in each university's research ethics guidelines.

Objectives: After many national physical activity guidelines have established, recent changes are deep and rapid. So the major features and implication to reverse worsening Korean physical activity indicator is desprate but related knowledge and informations are few. So review of recent features and implications of new physical activity guidelines have made. Methods: National physical activity guidelines of advanced countries were searched through snowballing methods. Major features were described according to the nation. Implication were drew through discussion for Korean realitiy. Results: New Australian physical activity and sedentary behaviour guideline explicitly included sedentary behaviour. The age in the guideline expanded to early years. Canada also presented 24-hour movement guidelines to early years. The second generation of the physical activity guidelines reflects the extensive amount of new knowledge. New aspects include discussions of additional health benefits related to brain health, additional cancer sites, and fall-related injuries; immediate and longer term benefits for how people feel, function, and sleep; further benefits among older adults and people with additional chronic conditions; risks of sedentary behavior and their relationship with physical activity; elimination of the requirement for physical activity benefits to occur in bouts of at least 10 minutes; and tested strategies that can be used to get the population more active. Conclusions: The most important message from the new guidelines is that the greatest health benefits accrue by moving from no, to even small amounts of, physical activity. Multiple studies demonstrate that the steepest reduction in disease risk occurs at the lowest levels of physical activity. People need to understand that even small amounts of physical activity are beneficial and that reductions in the risk of disease and disability occur by simply getting moving. So various evidence based proven strstegies are needed in Korea including workforce training.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the suitability and applicability of the recommendations for the exercise intervention program in fall prevention guidelines for the elderly. Methods: We searched systematically RISS, KISS, National Assembly Library, KoreaMed, and KM base for Korean guidelines and used OVID-MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane library, Trip database, GIN, NGC, WHO, and CDC for international guidelines including fall prevention exercises for the elderly until August 2016. Results: A total of 11 guidelines were selected as the result of the literature search. After evaluating the quality of guidelines, 9 guidelines were used to analyze the recommendations. A total of 19 recommendations were derived from 9 guidelines. Of 19 recommendations, 12 recommendations were considered to be appropriate and applicable. As a result, we recommend for the elderly to do a single type of balance exercise, strength exercise, aerobic exercise or multiple forms of exercise for 20~30 minutes per a day, 2~3 days or more than 3 days per a week, and consistently for more than 10 weeks. Conclusion: To prevent falls in the elderly, it is important for the elderly to perform a regular balance, strength, or aerobic exercise for 20~30 minutes per a day, 2~3 days per a week.

The development of food poisoning prevention guidelines aims to prevent food poisoning in advance and improve the safety of children's meals through hygiene management of children's feeding facilities, especially infants' facilities. Therefore, the composition of the content should be designed so that it can be fully understood from the point of view of the layperson. In terms of meal service management, various standards must be fully reflected and reviewed to increase utilization in the field. Daycare centers and kindergartens have different administrative agencies, similar application laws and guidelines, but different parts exist and various types of facilities, so management standards are often ambiguous. Therefore, such management requires easy guidance, not special guidance, and it should be universally applicable to any facility. Prior studies have shown that the management of meal facilities is the most efficient, but it is difficult to hire and deploy specialists due to the operation of children's meal facilities, so guidance, facilities managers and workers need to voluntarily practice them. It is time to prepare hygiene guidelines that reflect the characteristics of these children's cafeterias, and it is necessary to prepare and utilize guidance suitable for reality until it is institutionalized for the deployment of manpower exclusively for meals.

We examined an urban population's awareness of dietary guidelines to determine whether they perceived them to be necessary, and identified the factors affecting this awareness and perceived necessity. Data were collected via physical examinations and face-to-face interviews. Health indicators were collected from health examinations, and information on individual characteristics, including awareness, perceived necessity, and dietary status were obtained from the interviews. The subjects' sociodemographic, health and dietary status were examined as potential factors influencing awareness and perceived necessity. Descriptive statistics, contingency tables, and logistic regression modeling were used in the analysis. Low awareness of the dietary guidelines was displayed by the elderly and poorly educated individuals, and those without a spouse. Most people who were not aware of the dietary guidelines thought the guidelines unnecessary. Males with hypertension and lower hemoglobin levels, and females with less education had low awareness. Elderly females with lower bone density had less perceived necessity. Males and females with poor dietary status reported low perceived necessity.

This research aims to measure and analyze the dimensions of typical office chairs and desks sold in domestic market, and to suggest the modifications of national guidelines considering Korean peoples' body characteristics. The scope of this study was limited to the desktop type of computer jobs, excluding laptop environment. The dimensions of 24 different office chairs and 7 tables were measured, and their dimensions were analyzed against the Ministry of Labor (MOL) Notification and Korean Standards (KS). At the same time, the data from the Size Korea was also considered. As a result, the KS guidelines were overall fulfilled by the measured products, while the MOL Notification was not. It was found that the guidelines on the chair height, seat pan depth, lumber support height, and armrest height need to be modified. Some inconsistencies between the MOL Notification and KS were also found. It is suggested that the required dimensions specified by both guidelines should be unified.
