혈액순환촉진, 심혈관계치료, 피부질환, 암세포억제 등의 의료분야에 원적외선 치료법이 광범위하게 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 원적외선 치료에 효과적인 패널형 방사체의 발열부에 대한 열적 특성을 실험적으로 분석하였다. 발열선은 정상상태에서 절연피복에 $150mW/m^2$의 열유속으로 열에너지를 공급하여 절연피복은 발열선 온도의 20%에 도달하였다. 단열막 사용은 약 20%의 발열판 표면온도 증가효과가 있었으며 열시상수를 상승시켜 혈액순환촉진에 크게 기여하는 것으로 나타났다. 발열선의 배치간격이 발열부 설계에 중요한 인자이며 열확산의 중첩을 위해 발열판의 열전도계수와 밀도를 고려해야함을 알 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 웹 기반의 의료 정보를 제공하기 위한 한방 진단 시스템 중 얼굴형 및 혀 영역 추출, 설색 분석 방법에 대해 제안한다. 이는 초 고령화 사회를 맞아 의료 혜택의 대중화와 보편화가 사회적 요구 사항으로 대두되고 있으며 이를 IT 기술로 구현하기 위해 웹 기반의 망진 및 설진을 이용한 의료 정보를 제공하는 시스템을 구축하고자 한다. 통상 인체의 생체 신호를 반영하여 나타내어 주는 곳은 홍채나 혀, 오관 등이 있다. 이 중 본 논문은 개발하고자 하는 웹 기반의 질병 진단 중 관형과 찰색을 위한 얼굴형의 분류, 오관 영역의 주출과 영양분할 그리고 인간의 생체 신호가 집약적으로 나타나 있는 혀에 대해 설색을 추출하는 방법 등에 대해 제안하고자 한다. 끝으로 실험에 의해 제안한 방법의 유용성을 입증하고자 한다.

목 적 : 사회적 관점에서 로타바이러스의 사회적 비용을 추계하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 로타바이러스 연간 발생 환자수는 2002년 7월에서 2004년 6월까지 정읍지역에서 보고된 5세 미만 인구 1,000명당 입원 환자 11.6명, 외래 환자는 1,000명당 45.3명을 1년 단위로 환산하여 적용하였으며 의료비 자료는 건강보험심사평가원에 로타바이러스(A08.0)로 청구된 자료를 이용하였다. 2006년 12월부터 2007 년 5월까지 환자 보호자 조사를 실시하여 직접 비의료비 및 간접 비용을 산출하는 근거로 사용하였다. 결 과 : 2005년 5세 미만 아동 중 로타바이러스 감염으로 외래 이용한 환자수는 55,030명, 입원 환자수는 14,092명으로 추정하였다. 의료 비용은 110억원으로 전체의 82.8%를 차지했고, 교통비 및 기저귀 사용 등으로 인한 직접 비의료비는 16억원, 간호에 따른 작업 손실 비용은 6억 8000만원으로 로타바이러스 감염으로 인한 총 사회적 비용은 약 132억원 8천만원으로 집계되었다. 결 론 : 로타바이러스 감염은 의료비 뿐 아니라 비의료비와 간접 비용의 추가적인 지출을 가져오며 이는 사회적으로 큰 손실이 될 것이다. 그러나 본 연구에서는 보수적 추정을 하였으며 추후 연구에서 로타바이러스 감염이 보호자의 삶의 질과 건강수준의 저하에 미치는 영향을 비용 항목에서 충분히 고려할 필요가 있다.

Purpose : This study was conducted to provide for a basic resource, which can be used to set up a efficient management system in Cardiac Surgery Intensive Care Units(CSICU). Method: 1) Questionnaires were administered and observation methods were used, to examine the nursing activities performed in the CSICU after having reviewed related literatures and a review by the experts. Thus, the nursing activities were designating 254 activities and classified into 28 categories. 2)The 22 nurses in the 2 CSICUs filled out questionnaires about nursing activities from 12 April, 2002 to 17 April, 2002. The frequency of the nursing activities in the 28 categories counted and new nursing activities added by directly observing 12 nurses by two trained research staffs for 4 day. 3)In terms of validity, the 264 nursing activities were analysed by the 25 experts. As a result, 231 nursing activities were found valid and remained as appropriate nursing activities to be used for the careful analysis of the nursing activities in CSICUs. Result: The 22 categories are as below: assessment, monitoring, respiration management, nutrition management, elimination/drainage management, mobility management, sanitation management, safety management, temperature management, specimens collection, preparation and assistance of treatment, skin/wound management, infection management, medication management, education/support, dying patient care, recording/keeping, supplies management, environment management, communications, evaluations, professional development Conclusion : The manifest job description of the staff nurse will contribute to improving the efficiency of the nursing activities and to reducing the role conflicts among the medical staffs.

This study was investigate to evaluate the phosphate uptake rate of green algae in relation to diurnal rhythm and algae control method. The phosphate uptake rates of Chlorella vulgaris and Ankistrodesmus convolutus increased in light period and decreased in dark period. On the contrary, those of Chlamydomonas sp. showed a peak in the late dark period. The differences among species in phosphate uptake in relation to diurnal rhythm were due to the severe competition among species and seemed to alleviate the competition for nutrient supplies. The compound of CellCaSi, Ca and Fe showed the effective removal of the phosphorus. The extracts from rice and barley straw exhibited a significant effect on the growth inhibition of Microcystis aeruginosa.

The management of blood inventory is very important within the medical care system. The efficient management of blood supplies and demands for transfusions is of great economic and social importance to both hospitals and patients. For any blood type, there is a complex interaction among the optimal inventory level, daily demand level, daily supply level, transfusion to crossmatch ratio, crossmatch release period, issuing policy and the age of arriving units that determine the shortage and outdate rate. In this paper, we develop an efficient decision rule for blood inventory management in a hospital blood bank which can support efficient hospital blood inventory management using simulation. The primary use of the efficient decision rule will be to establish minimum cost function which consists of inventory levels, period in inventory, outdate and shortage rate for whole blood and various component inventories for a hospital blood bank or a transfusion service. If the administrator compute the mean daily demand for each blood type, the mean daily supply for each blood type, the length of the crossmatch release period and the average transfusion to crossmatch ratio, then it is possible to apply the efficient decision rule to compute the optimal inventory level, inventory period, outdate and shortage rate. This rule can also be used as a decision support system that allows the blood bank administrator to do sensitivity analysis related to controllable blood inventory parameters.

This study was performed to study the effects of dietary factors on breast and cervical cancer incidence in female Koreans. The subjects were 60 breast and 109 cervical cancer patients recruited from five general hospitals in Seoul. Food intake, anthropometric measurement, and blood compositions were studied through personal interview and using medical records, from August 1991 to September 1992. Body weight, body mass index, triceps skinfold thickness and body muscle mass were at upper limit of normal value, which suggest that these patients had a tendency of overweight. The levels of hemoglobin and hematocrit of the patients were below the normal values. The values of serum protein, albumin, and calcium were in the normal range but close to the lower bound. Therefore the nutritional status assessed by blood composition seems to be marginal. The results of diet history showed that most of the nutrient intake of the subjects met with RDA. The fat intake were 22.9-36.9g/day which supplies about 15-16% of total calories. The results of this study do not agree with those reports of western societies which showed the positive correlation between calorie and fat intake and the incidence of breast and cervical cancer. Even through the calories and fat intake of the subjects were not high, it was higher than national average, especially in breast cancer patients. From this study, dietary factors does not seem to be a major risk factor in cancer incidence in Korea. However, the tendency of the increasing consumption of fat could be a contributing risk factor together with overweight.

이 연구는 환자의 치위생학적 지식 및 실천 정도가 구강건강과 관련된 삶의 질에 미치는 영향을 측정하고자 평가도구중 하나인 구강건강영향지수(OHIP)를 사용하여 평가하였다. 그 결과 예방적인 지식이나 일상에서 매일 사용하는 구강용품지식 및 사용방법 지식이 높아야 주관적으로 느끼는 삶의 질이 높게 나타났다. 그리고 진료 형태별 지식과 같이 경험으로 습득한 지식은 높을수록 주관적으로 느끼는 삶의 질이 낮게 나타났다. 반면 심미치료중의 하나인 미백치료지식은 높을수록 주관적으로 느끼는 삶의 질이 높게 나타났다. 즉 예방적이고 심미적인 지식이 구강 건강영향지수에 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석된다.

Purpose: This study was performed to analyze the visiting nurses' job using Developing a curriculum (DACUM). Methods: The DACUM committee with 6 visiting nurses participated in the workshop. In this workshop, the visiting nurses role was defined and their duties and tasks were identified. After content validation via the experts, the pilot test was conducted to 78 nurses. Results: A total of 13 duties and 82 tasks were identified on the DACUM chart which represented the importance, difficulty, and frequency of tasks with alphabet A, B, and C as its higher degree. Regarding duties, 'visiting nursing for high risk group' is the highest, while the lowest was 'public welfare events'. Regarding to tasks, 'discovering a new patient' was the highest, while 'selecting patients and offering medical supplies (nutritional supplement, patch)' was the lowest one. Conclusion: The results showed that visiting nurses working in the visiting health care service center were doing more various duties and tasks than those working according to 'Act on Long-term Care Insurance for the Aged'. The results can be used to develop training programs for visiting nurses and evaluation-scale of their job performance.
