The development of medical devices based on the theory of tranditional Korean medicine is increasing due to population aging and emerging demand for medical services. Various clinical trials are being conducted to ensure the clinical effectiveness of the developed medical devices, and the importance of systematic management of variously collected information in this process is increasing. In this paper, we designed and constructed the database that can systematically manage the medical information of the patient and the pulse measurement information in conducting clinical trials by using pulse analysis system which is a representative diagnostic method of traditional Korean medicine. The constructed database can be efficiently used for the verification of existing algorithms or developing new algorithms through the quality control of various information and measured data on clinical trials. It also has several advantages in the control of clinical data. The results of this study can contribute to the establishment of Korean medical device data standard for the construction of integrated database management system that can share information with different kind of pulse analysis system and other bio-signal measuring devices.

The rapid expansion of the medical information super-highway through the internet with the sophistication of computer engineering and its application has made telemedicine in the cyberspace possible. Recent progress in the medical informatics enables us to use the medical information regardless on the time or place limit, to make a diagnostic and therapeutic plan. according to increasing need about health of general population. There are many database oriented sites on the web, which provide medical common senses, hospital information, and medical counselling on the web. But there are few oriental pulse database on the web. The purpose of this study is to develope the Clinical Oriental Pulse Database Management System over the WWW.

For efficient compatible system between medical clinics, the medical information has to be built on a standardized protocol such as a HL7 for text data and a DICOM for image data. But it is difficult to exchange information between medical clinics because the systems and softwares are different and also a structure of data and a type of code. Therefore we analyze a structure of DICOM file and design an integrated database for effective information sharing and exchange. The WISD system suggested in this paper separate the DICOM file transmitted by medical clinics to text data and image data and store it in the integrated DB(database) by standardized protocol respectively. It is very efficient that each medical clinic can search and exchange information by web browser using the suggested system. The WISD system can not only search and control of image data and patient information through integrated database and internet, but share medical information without extra charge like construction of new system.

Longitudinal data can provide important evidence with the potential to stimulate innovation and affect policies in medical education and can serve as a driving force for further developments in medical education through evidence-based decisions. Tracking and observing cohorts of students and graduates using longitudinal data can be a way to link the past, present, and future of medical education. This study reviewed practical methods and technical, administrative, and ethical considerations for the establishment and operation of a longitudinal database and presented examples of longitudinal databases. Cohort study design methods and previous examples of research using longitudinal databases to explore major topics in medical education were also reviewed. The implications of this study are as follows: (1) a systematic design process is required to establish longitudinal data, and each university should engage in ongoing deliberation about this issue; (2) efforts are needed to alleviate "survey fatigue" among respondents and reduce the administrative burden of those conducting data collection and analysis; (3) it is necessary to regularly review issues of personal information protection, data security, and ethics regarding the survey respondents; and (4) a system should be established that integrates and manages a longitudinal database of medical education at the national level. The hope is that establishing longitudinal data and cohorts at individual medical schools will not be a temporary phenomenon, but rather that they will be well utilized at the national level to innovate and implement ongoing changes in medical education.

A medical information management system for small to medium sized clinics and hospitals is developed. The system is designed to process, analyze and manage each patient's clinical record using database technique. The structure of the database was determined and implemented through careful and rigorous study of medical practices in Korea and, therefore, reflects the needs of information management in Korean medical community. Furthermore, a sophisticated inference engine that can deduce possible diseases from the result of medical examination is added to the system to provide doctors with a guideline in medical diagnoses.

This paper suggested that medical image database construction technique that generated and recognized from variable medical device and professional medical experts for the formalization and pattern extraction from informal medical images. And then we transformed informal image characteristics to digital data, and generated the meaningful pattern matching informations. Through this experienced works, so many related researchers can easily access the medical images database and use this formalized image informations on the variable fields.

The purpose of this study is to consider how Kim Young-hun approached and treated diseases caused by seven emotions using Cheonggang medical records database. Kim Young-hun often related seven emotions with qi, phlegm, fire and depressions of these three and with the loss of dignity (脫營). Records of seven emotions were especially concentrated in the 1950s, and it seems to have been influenced by the Korean war. The prescriptions which Kim used frequently were introduced as modified 六鬱湯. Analyzing the medicinal herbs Kim used, it was estimated that Kim would have applied "allevating phlegm and regulating qi" as the principle of the treatment of the seven emotions using 二陳湯 and Cyperus(香附子) with some adjustment of 利濕藥, 疏導藥, 淸熱藥, and 四物湯.

Objectives : To compare the herbal ingredients of the prescriptions in 「Newly Selected Twenty-four Key Formulas applied to Tae-eumin(新定太陰人病應用要藥二十四方)」 chapter of the Shinchuk edition of the 『Donuisusebowon』 and those from the texts of the Four Great Doctors of the Jin Yuan period. Methods : The herbal ingredients of the 『Donuisusebowon』 and those from 『Huangdisuwen Xuanminglunfang(黃帝素問宣明論方)』, 『Lanshimicang(蘭室秘藏)』, 『Suwenbingji Qiyibaomingji(素問病機氣宜保命集)』, 『Shanghan Biaoben Xinfaleicui(傷寒標本心法類萃)』, 『Piweilun(脾胃論)』, 『Neiwai Shangbianhuolun(內外傷辨惑論)』, 『Shanghanzhige(傷寒直格)』, 『Shanghanxinyao(傷寒心要)』, 『Sanxiaolun(三消論)』 were entered into the database. Next, formulas which included the herbal combination pattern of Tae-eumin formula were determined. Results : Among the 27 Tae-eumin formulas including edited versions, those that showed similar pattern among those in the JinYuan texts were the following 12: Gegenjiejitang(葛根解肌湯), Reduohanshaotang(熱多寒少湯), Gegenchengqitang(葛根承氣湯), Gegentaichengqitang(葛根大承氣湯), Gegenshaochengqitang(葛根小承氣湯), Mahuangpobiaotang(麻黃發表湯), Bufeiyuantang(補肺元湯), Zaojiaodahuangtang(皂角大黃湯), Guadisan(瓜蒂散), Shexiangsan(麝香散), Shichangpuyuanzhisan(石菖蒲遠志散), Maimundongyuanzhisan(麥門冬遠志散). Conclusions : Based on the finding that 44.4% of the Shinchuk edition's Tae-eumin formula patterns could be found in the texts of the Four Masters, Dongmu's assertion that about half of the Tae-eumin formulas has been clarified by the doctors of the Song, Yuan, Ming eras could be understood as true.

To minimize the Y2K (year 2000) date aware problem of medical devices, we are developing a database that keeps the data such as equipment type, specification, serial number, model number, acquisition date, vendor, manufacturer of the device as well as the names of departments that installed and that is currently responsible for the management of the medical device. The database also keeps the information as to whether the device awares the date, whether it is affected by the Y2K problem or not, how to solve the problem, reference home page address, and so on. The data was collected via internet search of the FDA web site and related of manufacturers homepages. To manage the Y2K problem effectively, the database should be updated regularly to include recent information.
