Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate the practice patterns of traditional Korean medicine (TKM) doctors and the acceptance of payment model in order to develop a new TKM health insurance payment model linked with TKM clinical practice guidelines (CPGs). Methods : Lumbar herniated intervertebral disc (HIVD) and idiopathic facial palsy (IFP) were selected as a test diseases to develop a new TKM payment model. The level of benefit coverage in the National Health Insurance (NHI) was designed. The survey asked 228 TKM doctors about their practice patterns in HIVD and IFP patients and acceptance of new payment model. Results : Mean of medical cost for treatment of HIVD was 441,000 KW, mean of treatment period ranged from 4.9 to 17.5 weeks, and mean of number of treatment ranged from 14.6 to 50.4 HIVD patients. In the case of IFP, mean of medical cost for treatment of IFP was 468,000 KW, mean of treatment period was at least 4.2 and up to 15.9 weeks and mean of number of treatment ranged from 14.2 to 52 IFP patients. Conclusions : Current study suggests that mixed payment model of per-visit and episode-based model seem to be proper. The model 1 bundles both items which were covered and not covered by NHI in a rational way. The model 2 is based on the development and application of critical pathway. Lastly, model 3 suggests bundling of items covered by current NHI. Acceptance of TKM doctors is expected to be highest in the model 3.

The concept of Blood Stasis had been cognized merely as a sign in disorder of blood circulation since "Huangjenaegyeong(黃帝內經)" until "Sanhanron(傷寒論)" and "Geumgweyoryak(金匱要略)" started to describe, explain and apply independent symptom of blood stasis to practice. In this article, establishing the estimate feature of symptom of blood stasis in "Geumgweyoryak(金匱要略)" is the main subject, in sequence the pathological mechanism and targets of prescriptions suggested in "Geumgweyoryak(金匱要略)" are analyzed and restructured. In conclusion, the symptom of blood stasis in "Geumgweyoryak(金匱要略)" is caused not only from disorder of blood circulation but also from metal depression, therefore there are always appearances of excessive and deficient status simultaneously, in the process of symptom. The research on concept of blood stasis from the literatures in early ages will be the basis of future studies about disease of circulation in Korean Traditional Medicine.

한의학은 진단 및 치료에 있어 뛰어난 우수성을 가지고 있음에도 불구하고 서양의학에 비해 선호도가 떨어진다. 이는 질병 진단에 있어 객관적인 진단 결과를 제공해 주는 서양의학에 비해 한의학은 임상의의 직관에 의존하고 있기 때문이다. 따라서 한방 임상의들의 직관을 객관화하여 기기로 구현 한다면 한방에 대한 선호도 상승 및 한의학의 세계 시장 진출도 크게 증대할 것으로 여겨진다. 특히 한의학의 진단법 중 가장 뛰어난 진단법으로 평가되는 망진의 경우 다른 진단법에 비해 관련 연구가 거의 이루어 지지 않고 있다. 이는 망진의 가장 중요한 요소인 찰색에 있어 실제 색의 분석을 위한 디지털 기기에서의 색 분석 기준이 없기 때문이다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 찰색을 기기로 구현하기 위한 절대적인 색 기준의 설정을 제시하고자 한다. 따라서 색 분석을 위해 여러 가지 디지털 색체계를 비교 분석하여 찰색을 위해 어느 디지털 색체계가 가장 효율적인 색 체계인지를 제시하고자 한다. 아울러 실험 환경의 차이에 따라 발생할 수 있는 변수를 최대한 줄이기 위한 실험 환경 및 조건에 대한 표준화를 제안하고자 한다.

This study was done for understanding the desirable direction of eastern and western nursing by comparing the nursing practice for the Pyrexia patient occuring most commonly. Body temperature usually maintains around $37^{\circ}C$ owing to the thermoregulatory center but pyrexia is caused by exogenous pyrogen like infection, cancer or disturbances in body's homeostatic heat balance. Pyrexia is defined that body temperature rise above $37.2^{\circ}C$. It has chill phase, course of the fever, termination accompanied various symptoms. Oriental medicine explains that pyrexia comes from Yang's(陽) abundance and Yin's(陰) lack. Pyrexia mainly happens when body constitution is in bad condition by Six Dirty's(六陰) affection to Wi Area (偉分). It also occurs because of unbalance between Qi (氣) and Yin(陰) caused by the lack in Seven Emotions, labor, food. The Sanghanron(傷寒論), explains that pyrexia is categorized exogenous fever like Poong Han(風寒), Poong Yul(風熱), Sup Yul(濕熱) and endogenous fever due to the Qi and blood deficiency. Explained above, even though pyrexia has different meaning in oriental medicine and western medicine, but this study have compared the oriental and western medicine assuming that pyrexia is rise of body temperature. From this point of view, oriental and western nursing shows the similarity in the field of 1) use of antipyretic to control the body temperature 2) rest and comfort 3) watering 4) nutrition and case study was executed in nursing practice. From the above study, western nursing has superiority in decreasing the patient's risen body temperature using antipyretic and ice bag. But in case of empty heat, oriental nursing which recommends the patient's body keep warm and prevent the use of ice bag as the first step and helps patient's sweating by drinking of hot water was comparatively effective. In conclusion, it is desirable that oriental nursing emphasizing the supportive nursing and western nursing should be harmonized according to the status of pyrexia patient and it is needed to study the nursing method appropriate in our culture.

Objectives : To look at the medical law reformation of Korean Medicine hospitals through the establishment and management of the Jaehan Oriental Medicine Hospital, which was the first Korean Medicine Hospital in South Korea. Methods : Revisions of the medical law since the establishment of the National Medical Act in 1951 up until 1973 when the 'Korean Medicine hospital' first entered the medical institution category were examined. Based on the revised contents, the establishment and management of the Jaehan hospital were examined. Results & Conclusions : The first mentioning of 'Korean Medicine hospital' in the medical law took place on Feb 16, 1973 when the medical law was completely revised. After law regulations on Korean Medicine hospitals were established, the fist Korean Medicine hospital was founded on Nov. 24th, 1973 according to act 2533 of the medical law. This is the Jaehan Oriental Medicine Hospital, which is the predecessor of what we now know as the Daegu Korean Medicine University Hospital. Although the Jaehan hospital was registered as a legitimate Korean Medicine hospital in November of 1973, it had already started medical practice in December of 1970. While it was established according to the standards of medical law, it changed its institution category from 'Korean Medicine hospital' to 'affiliated Korean Medicine clinic' based on another clause within the same law. The decade from 1960 to 1970 was a time when national economy was developing, and the field of medicine and medical institutions were also booming. As such, revisions in the medical law seems to not have been able to keep up with what was happening in reality. To meet the patients' right to move or to manage diseases which Korean Medicine was taking responsibility for, a medical institution with inpatient capacity was required. Therefore it is possible that the Jaehan hospital which had already been providing such a role could have been a sample case for reference in the medical law revision process.
