Breast feeding can play a very important role in the development of strong, healthy children. Many studies over the years have shown that breast milk provides defense against common ailments of childhood such as otitis media, gastrointestinal distress, and atopic diseases (allergies). For these reasons the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends breast feeding for at least the first twelve months of an infant's life. Goals of the Health People 2010 Initiative include that at least 75% of mothers will be breast feeding upon discharge from the hospital and at least 50% will be still nursing at six months post-partum. Currently, about 60% of new mothers initiate breast feeding and about 26% are still breast feeding at six months. However, research has shown that breast feeding trends are below these averages in rural areas of the United States. This may be due in part to lack of breast feeding knowledge and teaching in rural areas. Rural hospitals and birthing centers have not initiated many of the breast feeding promotional programs, such as the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative and Best Start, that have been successful in improving breast feeding trends in urban areas. Often new mothers who live in rural areas do not have access to a lactation consultant to help them with proper follow up. This paper will examine these concerns and propose recommendations to improve breast feeding in rural areas.

Purpose: This prospective study was designed to investigate the incidence of acute postoperative pain (APP) ${\geq}4$ and the risk factors of APP${\geq}$ for the first 48 hours after surgery. Methods: Data from 531 surgical patients were collected from November, 2009 to May, 2010. APP was assessed from the time of arrival at the Post Anesthetic Care Unit (PACU) to the end of the post-operative 48 hours. Risk factors of APP${\geq}$ were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. Results: The incidence of APP ${\geq}4$ was 58.8% for the first postoperative 4 hours; 33.5%, 24 hours; 11.1%, 48 hours. The score of pain was 5.55, the highest on arriving at PACU; 5.03 at postoperative 30 minutes; 4.03 at 1 hour; 3.96 at 4 hours; 2.76 at 24 hours; 1.44 at 48 hours Risk factors for APP ${\geq}4$ were females (Odds ratio [OR], 1.94; p=.013), general anesthesia (OR, 4.29; p<.001) and patient controlled analgesia (PCA) (OR, 2.83; p<.001) at 4 hours after operation; body mass index (BMI) ${\geq}25$ (OR, 1.80; p=.009), duration of surgery ${\geq}1$ hour (OR, 2.87; p=.037), general anesthesia (OR, 3.99; p<.001) and PCA (OR, 6.23; p<.001) at 24 hours; general anesthesia (OR, 3.53; p=.003) and PCA (OR, 3.01; p=.013) at 48 hours. Conclusion: Surgical patients with BMI ${\geq}25$, PCA and general anesthesia seem to have a higher incidence of pain ${\geq}4$ through the first postoperative 48 hours.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to analyze sexual permissiveness in order to solve the problems it creates for setting up desirable sexual culture. Methods: This study used Walker and Avant's methods for concept analysis. Results: Sexual permissiveness is the favorable attitude that is agreed upon and accepted as physiological, socio-cultural, and moral sexuality of an independent human who was born in man or woman. The property of sexual permissiveness that is accepted overall the humans are sex generously, change over the course of growth. sex consciousness, and attitudes toward sexual activity change based on race, age and religion etc. The values and beliefs of individuals that were formed in social and cultural background are bipolar. It is mutually agreed upon and accepted that volunarary activities should be spontaneous. The antecedents of sexual permissiveness included achievement of sexual development, establishment of the relationship, and mutual agreement between them. The consequences included mature relationship with others, meeting sexual needs, and raising sexual problems. Conclusions: These results suggest further studies are required that refine the diverse attributes of the concept of sexual permissiveness. The sexual education and enlightenment should be conducted at the period of secondary sex character.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare levels of postpartum fatigue, depression, childcare stress, and maternal identity according to postpartum period between primiparas who used Sanhujori facilities and those who did not. Methods: The research design was a longitudinal descriptive study using self-report questionnaires. Participants were 55 healthy primiparas who delivered at one of 3 hospitals in Chungnam, 21 using Sanhujori facilities and 34 not using these facilities during the first three weeks after childbirth. Data were collected from October 2008 to April 2009 at three measurement points, 2-4 days after childbirth (T1), 4-6 weeks (T2), and 12-14 weeks (T3). Data were analyzed using the SPSS 17.0 WIN program. Results: There was a significant difference in childcare stress between the two groups at 4-6 weeks after childbirth. Postpartum depression and childcare stress at 4-6 weeks were significantly higher than those of the other postpartum periods, while maternal identity was significantly lower. Conclusion: Child care stress is the most important issue among women who use Sanhujori facilities and the 4-6 week period after childbirth is very difficult to primiparas. These results indicate that nursing interventions for primiparas in Sanhujori facilities should focus on reducing childcare stress. Furthermore proper follow-up programs at 4-6 weeks are needed to decrease the difficulties in adjustment by new mothers.

본 연구는 주기적 유방 동통을 가진 가임기 여성에게 유방 마사지를 적용하여 유방 동통, 유방 경도, 유두 신전성, 유방 크기 및 유방의 혈액순환에 미치는 효과의 검증을 위한 무작위 통제군 전·후 실험 연구이었다. 연구 참여자는 M여성병원, C의료원, D시 소재의 백화점 및 인터넷 커뮤니티에서 모집한 주기적 유방 동통을 가진 여성 54명이었다. 실험 처치는 주기적 유방 동통이 있는 시기에 총 30분간 오른쪽과 왼쪽의 유방을 각각 15분씩 유방 마사지를 적용하였다. 실험 처치 후 실험군의 유방 동통(F=49.16, p<.001), 좌우 유방 경도(우측 t=-8.93, p<.001; 좌측 t=-10.34, p<.001), 좌우 유두 신전성(우측 t=3.58, p<.001 ; 좌측 t=4.66, p<.001), 좌우 유방 크기(우측 F=60.59, p<.001; 좌측 F=51.05, p<.001) 및 좌우 유방 혈액 순환 (우측 t=-1.30, p=.201; 좌측 t=-2.82, p=.007)은 두 군간에 유의한 차이가 있었다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서 시행한 유방 마사지는 주기적 유방 동통이 있는 참여자의 유방 동통 완화, 유방 경도 완화, 유방혈액순환 향상에 효과적이었다.
