Objectives: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of professional self-concept and ethical awareness of dental hygiene (department) students attending a university located in Gwangju and Jeollanam-do on patients' willingness to protect personal information. Methods: Professional self-concept, ethical disposition, and patients' personal information protection intention according to general characteristics were analyzed using t-tests and one-way ANOVA. After confirming the correlation through Pearson's correlation analysis, the effect on the patient's personal information protection intention was confirmed using multiple regression analysis. Results: Professional self-concept, ethical disposition, and the patients' willingness to protect personal information all showed positive correlations. The higher the communication skills of professional self-concept and the higher the idealism of ethical orientation, the higher the patients' willingness to protect personal information. Conclusions: This study, ascertained the effect of dental hygiene students' professional self-concept and ethical consciousness on patients' personal information protection practices. The results suggest that it is necessary to develop an educational program that can enhance the practice of dental hygienists to protect patients' personal information, and to develop and conduct continuous policy development and research.

Background: The purpose of the present study was to gather basic data necessary for developing an educational program regarding the protection of patients' personal information. Such a program would stress the importance of the protection of patients' personal information for dental hygiene students obtaining clinical practice. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire-based survey was conducted targeting dental hygiene undergraduates who were obtaining clinical practice in the capital region. A total of 543 questionnaires were included in the analysis. Results: The results of this study were as follows: 1) the average score for awareness of the Patient Privacy Act was 2.93 on a 4-point scale; 2) the average score for the recognition of the protection of patients' personal information was 3.22 on a 4-point scale; 3) the area-based perception of the protection of patient's personal information was 3.37 points for communication, which scored highest, followed-by the linked-work area at 3.27 points, the patient's information management at 3.22 points, and the direct dental hygiene work at 3.18 points; 4) with regard to awareness of the protection of patients' personal information according to general characteristics, the perception was higher in the advanced academic year (p < 0.01), in those who had education regarding the protection of patients' personal information at both the university and the clinical practice institution (p < .05), and in those with higher grades (p < 0.01). Conclusions: Based on the above findings, the development and application of an educational program to improve awareness of the protection of patients' personal information are considered to be necessary by both universities and clinical practice institutions.

코로나19와 같은 재난 상황에서 우리 사회는 개인정보 공개에 대해 부정적인 또는 비협조적인 태도를 가진 확진자들로 인해 코로나19의 피해가 확산되는 경험을 해왔다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 코로나19 확진자의 개인정보 공개에 대한 인식을 개선시킬 수 있는 정책적 방향을 모색해보고자 한다. 본 연구는 수용성의 개념을 개인적 수용성과 사회적 수용성으로 구분하여 그것들의 영향요인들과의 관계를 통계적으로 검증하였다. 본 연구에서는 온라인 설문조사를 통해 수집한 594부의 자료를 사용하였다. 분석 결과, 정부의 개인정보 관리역량에 대한 신뢰가 클수록 개인정보 공개에 따르는 위험성에 대한 인식이 낮아지는 것으로 나타났으며, 이러한 인식이 낮을수록 코로나19 확진자의 개인정보 공개에 대한 개인적, 사회적 수용성이 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 개인정보 공개에 대한 효용성을 크게 인식할수록 개인정보 공개에 대한 개인적, 사회적 수용성에 대한 인식이 높게 나타났다. 본 연구의 분석 결과와 논의는 향후 코로나 19 뿐만 아니라 미래의 새로운 재난 상황에서도 국민들의 정보공개 거부감을 감소시킬 수 있도록 보다 성숙된 사회적 분위기를 조성하기 위한 정책 개발에 유용한 정보로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In the 4th Industrial Revolution, the healthcare industry is undergoing a paradigm shift from post-care and management systems based on diagnosis and treatment to disease prevention and management based on personal precision medicine. To optimize medical services for individual patients, an open ecosystem for the healthcare industry that allows the exchange and utilization of personal health records (PHRs) is required. However, under the current system of hospital-centered data management, it is difficult to implement the linking and sharing of PHRs in practice. To address this problem, in this study, we present the design and implementation of a patient-centered PHR platform using blockchain technology. This platform achieved transparency and reliability in information management by eliminating the risk of leakage and tampering/altering personal information, which could occur when using a PHR. In addition, the patient-consent system was applied to a PHR; thus, the patient acted as the user with ownership. The proposed blockchain-based PHR platform enables the integration of personal medical information with scattered distribution across multiple hospitals, and allows patients to freely use their health records in their daily lives and emergencies. The proposed platform is expected to serve as a stepping stone for patient-centered healthcare data management and utilization.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of applying a program to enhance social information processing ability in schizophrenic patients. We confirmed the positive effects of the program on the theories of mind and attribution style, which are the social information elements of patients, and confirmed the effect of decreasing paranoid ideation. We used the theory of mind(hinting task, the false belief task), the attributional style questionnaire(external bias, personal bias), and the paranoia scale to test the effectiveness of the program. Specifically, in theory of mind, hinting task performance was improved(t=4.14, p=.000),. The scores of personal bias(t=-7.9, p=.000) and paranoid ideation(t=-2.98, p=.004) decreased. Further research is needed to verify the effectiveness of meta - cognitive training to enhance social information processing.

In a broad term, health and medical data means all patient information that has been generated or circulated in government health and medical policies, such as medical research and public health, and all sorts of health and medical fields as well as patients' personal data, referred as medical data (filled out as medical record forms) by medical institutions. The kinds of health and medical data in medical records are prescribed by Articles on required medical data and the terms of recordkeeping in the Enforcement Decree of the Medical Service Act. As EMR, OCS, LIS, telemedicine and u-health emerges, sharing and protecting digital health and medical data is at issue in these days. At medical institutions, health and medical data, such as medical records, is classified as "sensitive information" and thus is protected strictly. However, due to the circulative property of information, health and medical data can be public as well as being private. The legal grounds of health and medical data as such are based on the right to informational self-determination, which is one of the fundamental rights derived from the Constitution. In there, patients' rights to refuse the collection of information, to control recordkeeping (to demand access, correction or deletion) and to control using and sharing of information are rooted. In any processing of health and medical data, such as generating, recording, storing, using or disposing, privacy can be violated in many ways, including the leakage, forgery, falsification or abuse of information. That is why laws, such as the Medical Service Act and the Personal Data Protection Law, and the Guideline for Protection of Personal Data at Medical Institutions (by the Ministry of Health and Welfare) provide for technical, physical, administrative and legal safeguards on those who handle personal data (health and medical information-processing personnel and medical institutions). The Personal Data Protection Law provides for the collection, use and sharing of personal data, and the regulation thereon, the disposal of information, the means of receiving consent, and the regulation of processing of personal data. On the contrary, health and medical data can be inspected or delivered of the copies, based on the principle of restriction on fundamental rights prescribed by the Constitution. For instance, Article 21(Access to Record) of the Medical Service Act, and the Personal Data Protection Law prescribe self-disclosure, the release of information by family members or by laws, the exchange of medical data due to patient transfer, the secondary use of medical data, such as medical research, and the release of information and the release of information required by the Personal Data Protection Law.
