Objectives : This Study was prepared for investigating the safety of oriental medicine and continuous intravenous urokinase combined therapy in acute cerebral infarction. Methods : We prospectively estimate safety of hemorrhagic transformation occurred in oriental medical therapy and continuous intravenous urokinase combined therapy. We estimate National Institute of Health Stroke Scale Score and Modified Barthel Index. Results : Hemorrhagic transformation was not noted. and Others are not fatal complication. Conclusions : oriental medical therapy and continuous intravenous urokinase combined therapy are safety method in treatment of acute cerebral infarction.

On the basis of this results, the following suggestions are proposed. 1. The pulblic health center is important institution in community rehabilition program, and every pulblic health center must participate in this program. 2. Various strateges have to be tryed and analysed to improve the visiting nurses' rehabilitation services. 3. For successful community rehabilitation, social welfare rehabilitation program must be developed and correlated with that of the pulblic helth center.

Recently computer graphic technology has achieved remarkable development. Applications of this technology to various fields are expected. In this study, one application of computer graphics to the medical field is shown. We developed a rehabilitation system of hand manipulation using virtual reality aiming to offer enjoyable rehabilitation training to physically handicapped people with upper limb disabilities. This rehabilitation system generates training environments for upper limbs, such as moving balls in virtual space of computer. And by using data glove as a sophisticated input device, a user can manipulate objects in virtual space by his hand. By using this rehabilitation system, a user can have rehabilitation training under various conditions without feeling tedious.

Objective : Direct moxibustion applied on painful point of injured ligament, not acu-point, is effective method to treat acute pain and chronic weakness of injured ligaments. We recently experienced 3 case of sprain treated with direct moxibustion on painful point of ligaments. Methods : Patients who injured in lateral collated ligament, anterior talo-fibular ligament, and collateral ligament of finger were treated by direct moxibustion on tender points of injured ligaments. Results and conclusion : There was successful results that pain and ROM was improved. It seems that burns due to moxibustion facilitate repair of ligament and control inflammation.

In this study, an end-effector robot which is a two-axis delta robot type for upper-limb rehabilitation is designed. It is not only rehabilitation functions that has designed robot but also mechanical and electrical safety devices were constructed to ensure patient safety. By constructing the two-axis delta robot is combined with an LM guide, the operating range and rigidity required for rehabilitation were secured. The electrical safety system which is required for the medical robot was designed, and a safety strategy was established to ensure patient safety and it is applied in the integrated safety circuit. The safety is considered in whole design process from the robot's mechanical design to the electric control unit.

Objective The purpose of this study is to work on the direction of the study with regard to the sarcopenic obesity. Methods We searched articles relative to sarcopenic obesity in the KyungHee University Meta-analysis database. We classified articles according to type of study and subject clinical characteristics, assessment, medical complications and treatment. Results and Conclusion Data from this pilot study showed that sarcopenic obesity is associated with metabolic abnormality, cancer, increased frailty, physical disability and inflammatory markers. Therefore, clinical studies are needed to demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of management for sarcopenic obesity.
