Purpose: This dissertation is a descriptive research study analyzing the accuracy and reliability of the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) application developed in Korea. Methods: Two faculty members from the emergency medical services department and the emergency medicine department searched applications from July 1 to July 10, 2019 and selected a total of 13 applications. Twelve questions were assessed for information accuracy and three were assessed for reliability. In accordance with application types, the number and mean ± standard deviation were analyzed. The t-test was used to compare the accuracy of CPR information in accordance with information sources. Results: The results revealed the following errors: 7 cases (53.8%) identified the chest center lining from the nipple center-line as the chest pressure point; 5 cases (38.5%) did not provide information on the depth of 6 cm that should not be exceeded; and 4 cases (30.8%) did not provide advise to check respiration. When the CPR information sources were included, the information accuracy score was high; a significant difference was observed (p=.035). Conclusion: In the case of applications providing medical information regarding CPR, it is necessary to provide at least authoritarian, sources of information, and author transparency as well as continuous effort and attention.

본 논문에서는 뇌졸중 환자의 독립적인 재활운동이 가능할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다. 뇌졸중은 뇌기능의 부분적 또는 전체적으로 급속히 발생한 장애가 상당 기간 이상 지속되는 상태를 의미한다. 이러한 뇌졸중은 상지 운동을 통해 대뇌 운동피질을 활성화하여 재활 할 수 있어, 의학 분야에서는 운동기구를 이용하여 뇌졸중 환자의 재활을 돕고 있다. 하지만 병원이 아닌 가정에서 운동을 하기에는 운동기구에 비용, 작업치료사의 부재와 같은 환경적인 측면으로 무리가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 가정에서 환자가 독립적인 운동을 할 수 있게 MCU와 Android Application을 이용하여 의료진이 환자의 옆에 없더라도 운동이 가능하고 가이드를 제공하는 스마트한 재활운동기기를 개발하였다. 또한 기존의 재활운동기기는 단순히 운동만 할 수 있었다면, 본 연구에서는 Android Application에서 게임을 제공함으로써 보다 즐겁게 운동이 가능하여 재활의지 증가를 기대해볼 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 환자의 운동 데이터가 실시간으로 저장되어 병원에서 의료진이 환자의 운동 상태를 파악할 수 있도록 구성함으로 써 향후 뇌졸중 환자의 재활연구분야에 도움이 될 것이라 생각한다.

Purpose: The purpose of this descriptive study was to investigate the pattern of physical restraints used in ICUs and to identify influencing factors of application and removal of restraints. Method: The subjects of this study were 90 restrained patients out of 215 patients over 6 years old who were admitted to 6 ICUs in SMC during a 2 weeks period. The data was collected through a questionnaire of characteristics, guidelines and nursing care of restraint uses. The data were analyzed by non-parametric statistic with the use of the SAS program. Results: The restraints were applied to 31.4% of subjects. Mean time of physical restraint was $36.76{\pm}55.7$ hours. There were significant difference with mean time and frequency according to duty shift. GCS, restless behavior and discomfort factors, medical devices, and life sustaining devices had significant relation with application of restraints. In addition, the mean time of restraints used were related significantly with GCS, restless behavior, and discomfort factors. Conclusion: The used of restraints were dependent on mainly the nurses' decision. Thus ICU nurses have to develop the guidelines to applying restraints and removal of restraints in regard to patients rights and ethics. Continuous monitoring and evaluation of application of the restraints is essential in professional nursing.

Objective : This study evaluated the role of smartphone application in the self-assessment of three psychiatric symptoms: stress, depression, and suicidal ideation. Methods : A total of 5,646 respondents were evaluated with three scales (Perceived Stress Scale, PSS, Center for Epidemiologic Study for Depression, CES-D, Scale for Suicidal Ideation, SSI) via smartphone application 'mindscan'. We analyzed the sociodemographic variables, the levels of three symptoms, and the association between the scores on all three scales. Results : The mean total scores of PSS, CES-D, and SSI were 24.86, 35.15, and 18.03, respectively. Women showed significantly higher scores on PSS, CES-D, and SSI when compared with men. Younger users showed a significantly higher score on all three scales when compared with older users. The scores on all three scales were higher than in other studies with off-line surveys. The PSS was positively correlated with CES-D (r=0.690), and with SSI (r=0.367). The CES-D was positively correlated with SSI (r=0.540). Conclusions : A smartphone application for mental health based on three scales (PSS, CES-D, and SSI) is a relatively useful screening tool compared with off-line general population surveys. The association between the three scales reflects the relationship between the three psychiatric symptoms observed in clinical practice.

Objectives We aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the Korean medical critical pathway (CP) in treating childhood anorexia. Methods In total, 21 patients who met the criteria and agreed to provide information were assigned to the CP group, while 24 patients who met the criteria, agreed to provide information, but disagreed with CP application were assigned to the non-CP group. Demographic, clinical, and economic indices were compared between the two groups. Clinical indices before and after treatment were also compared between the two groups. Results In the CP group, height, weight, body mass index (BMI), BMI percentile, and food approach (FAP) increased significantly after treatment, and numeric rating scale (NRS) and food avoidance (FAV) scores decreased significantly. In the non-CP group, height, weight, weight percentile, BMI, BMI percentile, and FAP increased significantly, whereas NRS and FAV decreased significantly after treatment. Compared to the non-CP group, CP application increased FAP and decreased FAV, medical expenses per consultation, and the total treatment period. Conclusions The application of the Korean medical critical pathway for childhood anorexia is an effective cure system that decreases overall medical expenses with good-quality treatment by means of the standardization of medical practices.

Bcl-2 is a member of large bcl-2 family and protects cells from apoptosis. Using bcl-2-expressing adenovirus vector (Ad-bc1-2), we investigated the effect of bc1-2 on UVB-induced apoptosis. Adenovirus vector efficiently introduced bc1-2 gene in cultured normal mouse keratinocytes (NMK cells); almost all NMK cells (lx10$^{6}$ ) were transfected at Ixl0$^{8}$ PFU/ml. Bcl-2-transfected NMK cells were significantly resistant to UVB-induced apoptosis with the suppressive effect dependent on bcl-2-expression level. Following UVB irradiation caspase 8, 3, 9 activities were stimulated in NMK cells, while in bc1-2-transfected cells, only caspase 8, but not caspase 3 or 9 activities were stimulated. In order to investigate the effect of bc1-2 in vivo, topical application of Ad-bc1-2 on tape-stripped mouse skin was performed. Following the application, Bc1-2 was efficiently overexpressed in almost all viable keratinocytes. The expression was transient with the maximal expression of Bc1-2 at 1st day following the application of lxl0$^{9}$ PFU in 200ml. The introduced Bc1-2 remained at least for 6 days. UVB irradiation (1250 J/m$^2$) induced apoptosis within 12 h and the maximal effect was observed at 24 h in control mouse skin. Bc1-2-transfected mice skin were resistant to UVB-induced apoptosis. Topical application of empty adenovirus vector alone had no effect on Bc1-2 expression or UVB-induced apoptosis. These results indicate that adenovirus vector is an efficient gene delivery system into keratinocytes and that Bcl-2 is a potent inhibitor of UVB-induced apoptosis both in vitro and in vivo.
