Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the customized oral health promotion program for North Korean defectors (NKDs). Methods: Using a pre-survey comprising phases 1-5 of the PRECEDE-PROCEED model, a customized oral health promotion program was created. The participants, a total of 129 NKDs, were allocated to the experimental group (n=64; 43 females and 21 males) or the control group (n=65; 46 females and 19 males). After the interventions, phases 7 to 9 of the PRECEDE-PROCEED model were executed to determine the effect of the program. Results: The results for phase 7 revealed high satisfaction with the program, with an average of 2.89 out of 3 points. In phase 8, concerning the impact evaluation, it was found that oral health beliefs and oral health knowledge were improved, with statistically significance differences before and after the experiment. Phase 9, concerning the outcome evaluation, showed that there were statistically significant differences in the average within groups before and after education in oral health beliefs (OHB), O'Leary index scores, and CPI. In terms of the difference between the groups, there were statistically significant improvement in OHB, O'Leary index scores, and CPI after the education program. Conclusions: The oral health promotion program developed in this study has made a positive contribution to improve the oral health status of NKDs.

만성 통증의 양상을 보이는 구강작열감증후군은 환자들의 신체적, 심리적인 면 뿐만 아니라 전반적인 삶의 질과의 연관성도 많은 연구들에서 보고되어 왔다. 하지만 현재까지의 대부분의 연구들에서는 구강작열감환자에게 있어서 총괄적인 건강상태와 관련된 삶의 질을 평가하는 데에는 부족한 면이 있고, 이들의 관계에 대한 연구가 아직은 미흡한 상태이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 구강내과에 내원한 구강작열감증후군 환자를 대상으로 Medical Outcome Short Form Health Survey Questionnaire (SF-36)과 Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-49)를 이용한 평가를 시행하여, 시행 결과를 대조군의 결과와 비교, 분석하여 삶의 질과의 관계를 분석해 보고자 하였다. 총 60명의 구강작열감증후군 환자 및 60명의 건강한 대조군이 본 연구에 참여하였다. 각 군을 대상으로 전반적인 삶의 질을 평가하기 위해 고안된 설문인 SF-36과 구강 건강과 관련한 삶의 질을 평가하기 위해 고안된 설문인 OHIP-49를 시행하였다. 구강작열감증후군과 전반적인 삶의 질 사이에는 유의한 상관관계가 관찰되었다. SF-36의 모든 항목에서 구강작열감증후군 환자군은 대조군에 비하여 현저히 낮은 점수를 보여 전반적인 삶의 질이 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. OHIP-49 설문의 결과, 각 항목의 평균에서 구강작열감증후군 환자군은 대조군에 비하여 현저히 높은 점수를 보여 구강 건강과 관련한 삶의 질이 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다.

There are very few case reports of the diagnosis and management of concurrent oral cavity and parapharyngeal space tumors. We present a case involving a 49-year-old female who presented with oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma confirmed by biopsy. Initial diagnostic workup revealed a concurrent parapharyngeal mass. Diagnostic studies and surgical therapy were tailored to account for both pathological entities. The patient was treated with a combination of surgery and adjuvant therapy. The surgical strategy was designed to address both lesions simultaneously. One year post-surgery, the patient had good response to therapy with no evidence of persistent or recurrent disease. This report discusses the outcome and treatment of a rare case of concurrent squamous cell carcinoma with a complicating parapharyngeal space tumor. It explores the diagnostic process, comprehensive workup, and the surgical management.

In July 2008, The National Police Hospital has developed the CPOE system(Computerized Physician Order Entry system) which links the medicine master and introduced the new program for the injectable antimicrobial agents. After introducing new system, we wanted to check the management of oral antimicrobial agents. Because new system has limitation that new system control only the use of the injectable antimicrobial agents. So we tried to evaluate the use of oral levofloxacin, which was chosen by a medical specialist of the infection. We retrospectively analyzed the appropriateness of oral levofloxacin through EMR(Electric Medical Record) of 72 inpatients who received oral levofloxacin in National Police Hospital in December 2008. We applied the modified ASHP(American Society of Health- System Pharmacists) DUE(Drug Use Evaluation) criteria, which is composed of justification of drug use, critical indicators, complications and outcome measures. Acceptable cases of use of levofloxacin were 67(93.01%) and 57cases(79.2%) showed good outcome. However critical indicators were not performed very well. We want to suggest the new system for the management of the medical therapeutics by the pharmacist in charge.

Objectives: This purpose of this study was to examine the trends in interventional research and analyze the contents and results of intervention through a systematic literature review of the domestic research literature, suggesting the effect of an oral care program on elementary school students. Methods: A total of 262 articles were retrieved initially, and the duplicate articles were then removed, excluded after screening titles, abstracts, and full-text articles. Finally, a total of 16 papers were used in the review. Results: The study included 9 articles with the nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design and 7 with the one-group pretest-posttest design. All articles were of non-randomized studies. The most common index of the interventional effect was dental plaque. Further, oral health behaviors and knowledge, perception, self-efficacy, and DMFT index were common indices. In the quality assessment, in the "blinding of outcome assessment" among six items of ROBANS, 12 studies showed a high risk of bias. Conclusions: In order to develop an interventional oral health care program for elementary school students and evaluate the effectiveness, a strict research design and qualitative improvement of research reports are required, and continuous research should be conducted to develop a systematic protocol.
