Purpose : The purpose of this study was to examine the possible direction of critical care nursing research in the future by analyzing the trends of recent Korean studies. Method : Using a database search, we selected 263 articles on critical care nursing that were published in Korean journals between 2008 and 2017. Then, we conducted an integrative review of the contents of the selected articles and analyzed the English abstracts using the relevant packages and functions of the R program. Results : The number of studies concerning critical care nursing has increased over the 10-year period, and the specific topic of each study has diversified according to the time at which it was conducted. In terms of quality, the majority of the research was published in high-level academic journals. The key words regularly studied over the past decade were: knowledge, delirium, education, restraint, stress, and infection. Studies related to vancomycin-resistant enterococci infection, compliance, and standards have decreased, while studies related to death, communication, and safety have increased. Conclusion : Randomized controlled trials and protocol research for evidence-based critical care need to be conducted, as does research on family involvement. The key word analysis of unstructured text used in this study is a relatively new method; it is suggested that this method be applied to various critical care nursing research and develop it methodologically.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal length of time to observe patients with contrast media anaphylaxis in the Emergency Department. Methods: This study included the patients of all age groups who presented with anaphylaxis due to contrast media to the ED of Pusan National University Hospital from January 2006 to August 2009. The medical records were retrospectively reviewed. We analyzed the 100 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Their median age was 55 (46-62), and 38 out of the 100 patients (38%) were male. Results: The most common symptom of patients was urticaria. Corticosteroid and H1 antihistamine were given to most of the patients in the ED. All were discharged after observation in the ED and none were admitted to the ward. The average time from injection of the contrast media to the onset of symptom was 31 minutes (24-39) and the average time to symptom recovery was 127 minutes (89-188). The mean observation time in the ED was 93 minutes (59-153). Biphasic reactions were reported in only one case (1/100, 1%). Conclusion: These results suggest that patients who present with an anaphylactic reaction after radiologic studies that use intravenous contrast media can be safely discharged early from the ED because the symptom recovery time is not long and a biphasic reaction is rare.

When women are removed with their matrix which is a emotionally significant organ of symbol in psychologically adapting themselves to mother and woman, that is threatened and injured with woman role decisively. The nursing for women with hysterectomy is limited to medical treatment and the nursing related to troubles in psychology, emotion they experience in general situation due to operations is hardly realized. New basis for nursing can be realized when we both have relation with lived human experience related th health and become to be a part of it. We need to catch their experience due to the loss of matrix to understand women with hysterectomy. The subjects of the study were nine patients who were admitted to a gynecological ward of a hospital in Seoul, suffering from vaginal bleeding, back pain, abdominal pain and so on and diagnosing as non-cancer. The data were collected from April to May 1997 by listening to the subjects' expression of their experience and by participant observation of the subjects' reactions. A tape-recorder was used under the permission of the subjects, to prevent the loss of spoken information. The result of the study was as follows : The data on burden content from the interview were categorized as psych-emotional, physical, personal interaction, financial burden and maternal role burden. The factors which have influence on the burden of the subjects are an offer of information, support system, age, occupation, economic situation, family history, character, season, the existence of ovary and religion. In conclusion, since we ascertained that the nursing in the process of recovery decide the quality of life, though women with hysterectomy undergo various burden experience and adapt to it in the end, it is necessary to give them enough information and educate husband, having on important effect on the burden experience, to be a good supporter. And technically skilled nurses of consultant are thought to be able to contrive better qualitative life of women with hysterectomy as an important bridge between the subjects and their required information, since the nurses have their well-formed position of relationship of confidence through continuous contact with patients and their family.

Objectives This study is designed to compare the clinical characteristics of patients with early onset schizophrenia to those of adult onset schizophrenia patients in first episode. Methods Authors reviewed medical records of 16 early-onset schizophrenia patients and 22 adult-onset schizophrenia patients who had been admitted in the psychiatric ward and diagnosed as schizophrenia according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fourth Edition (DSM-IV) at Eulji University Hospital during 2004-2008. Socio-demographic data and clinical characteristics such as duration between onset and active phase, number of significant positive and negative symptoms, positive and negative symptom scores of Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S) scores, duration from onset to admission, duration of admission, and equivalent dose of antipsychotics were reviewed. These clinical characteristics of early-onset group were compared to those of adult-onset group. Correlation between age of onset and other clinical characteristics was also analyzed. Results Early-onset group showed more insidious onset pattern and had longer duration of hospitalization than adult-onset group. Early onset group also exhibited more negative symptoms, higher negative symptom scores, and higher CGI-S scores than adult-onset group after treatment. However, there were no significant differences in family history of psychosis, positive symptom frequency at discharge and equivalent dose of antipsychotics between two groups. Conclusions This study revealed that patients with early-onset schizophrenia exhibited more insidious onset, more negative symptoms, and more severe symptoms than those with adult-onset schizophrenia after treatment.

수직뛰기 운동을 위한 mini-trampoline은 운동중 인체에 미치는 중력가속도를 변화시킴으로써 그 효과를 나타낸다고 하므로, mini-trampoline 운동중에 피검자가 받는 중력가속도를 다음과 같은 방법으로 측정하였다. 피검자로 하여금 mini-trampoline상에서 최대의 높이로 수직뛰기를 반복시키고, 그 뒷벽에는 3인치 간격의 눈금을 표시하여 뛰는 높이를 알 수 있게 하였다. 수직뛰기를 하는 동안에 super-8 mm 영사기로 초당 48 frames의 속도로 촬영한 후 각 frame에 나타난 피검자의 두정부 높이를 알아내었다. 수직뛰기하는 동안 시간에 대한 머리높이의 면화를 graph에 그려서 상승뛰기 운동시의 최대속도를 계산하였다. 이 결과로 부터 Arizona State University의 Crash Survival Investigator's School에서 고안한 다음의 공식을 사용하여 중력가속도(G)를 계산하였다. $$G={\frac{0.7854{\cdot}V^2}{32.2S}}$$ V = 상승운동시 나타난 최대속도 (fps) S = 하강운동시 정지거리 (ft) 본 연구에서 V는 약 9fps 였고, S는 0.61 ft 였으며 따라서 G는 $3.24+G_z$였다. 인체가 친밀 수 있는 증력가속도의 한계가 $+G_z$방향으로 0.1초동안 20G이며 $-G_z$방향으로 0.1초 동안 15G임을 고러할 때 mini-trampoline운동으로써 얻을 수 있는 중력가속도는 인체에 유해할 만큼 큰 것이 아니라는 것을 알 수 있다.

본 연구는 노인요양병원에 입원한 환자가족들이 환자의 침대난간 사용을 어떻게 인지하고 있는지를 기술하고 탐색하기 위해 시도되었다. 수집된 자료는 심층면담을 이용하였고, Cavanagh의 내용분석(content analysis)방법으로 분석하였다. 연구결과 노인요양병원에서 침대난간 사용에 대한 환자가족의 인식은 예방적 안전, 이동의 편리함, 의례적인 간호, 감옥같은 생활, 부상위험, 침대난간의 대체 가능한 대안의 6가지 주제로 도출되었다. 관습화된 침대난간 사용의 긍정적 효과가 침대난간 사용에 대한 환자 가족들의 부정적 견해보다 중요하게 생각되고 있다는 점을 연구를 통해 알 수 있었고, 병원관계자들이 환자개인의 자유, 신체적 속박, 속박에 대한 부작용, 대안에 대한 이슈에 대해 환자와 환자가족들과 의사결정을 함께 할 것을 제안하고자 한다. 병원의 의료환경 변화로 인해, 의료행위의 효과성과 효율성, 위험관리, 그리고 근거기반실무가 강조되고 있다. 그러나 침대난간 사용이나 신체적 속박 문제는 해답을 쉽게 찾을 수 없는 주제이며 간호사들은 침대난간 사용에 있어 엄격한 사용지침에 따라 명확하게 간호행위를 수행해야 할 것이다.
