본 연구는 공공병원 간호사의 직장 내 약자 괴롭힘 및 자아탄력성이 이직의도에 미치는 영향을 파악하여 긍정적인 간호현장을 조성하도록 돕는 기초자료를 제시하고자 시행하였다. 연구의 대상자는 서울시에 위치한 일개 공공병원 간호사를 대상으로 편의표집 한 216명으로 하였다. 조사기간은 2014년 11월 20일부터 12월 3일까지이었고, 배부된 236부 중 216부를 최종 분석하였다. 자료 분석은 SPSS 21.0 for Window 프로그램을 사용하였다. 연구결과, 변수들 간의 상관관계를 보였고, 공공병원 간호사의 이직 의도는 직장 내 약자 괴롭힘과 자아탄력성에 의해 영향을 받는 것이 확인되었으며 그 중에서도 업무관련 괴롭힘이 가장 영향력이 컸다. 따라서 공공병원 간호사의 이직의도를 낮추기 위해서는 직장 내 약자 괴롭힘 예방 및 중재방안을 위한 프로그램을 개발하는 것이 필요하다.

Background: As health care workers face a wide range of psychosocial stressors, they are at a high risk of developing burnout syndrome, which in turn may affect hospital outcomes such as the quality and safety of provided care. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the moderating effect of job control on the relationship between workload and burnout. Methods: A total of 352 hospital workers from five Italian public hospitals completed a self-administered questionnaire that was used to measure exhaustion, cynicism, job control, and workload. Data were collected in 2013. Results: In contrast to previous studies, the results of this study supported the moderation effect of job control on the relationship between workload and exhaustion. Furthermore, the results found support for the sequential link from exhaustion to cynicism. Conclusion: This study showed the importance for hospital managers to carry out management practices that promote job control and provide employees with job resources, in order to reduce the burnout risk.

Zoonoses represent a public health risk recently pointed out by the spreading of previously unknown human infectious diseases emerging from animal reservoirs such as severe acute respiratory syndrome and avian influenza caused by H5N1-virus. These outbreaks have shown that animal breeding activities can pose a significant public health risk. Until now, the risk of zoonoses has probably been underestimated, particularly in occupational settings. The emergence or re-emergence of bacterial (Mycobacterium bovis and Brucella spp) or viral (hepatitis E virus) infections shows that zoonoses should be considered as emerging risks in agricultural and animal breeding and should be addressed by specific preventive interventions. Close cooperation and interaction between veterinarians, occupational health physicians and public health operators is necessary, for a worldwide strategy to expand interdisciplinary collaborations and communications in all aspects of health care for humans, animals and the environment. This is what the One Health Approach was intended to be.

This study was conducted to investigate the degree of nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and compliance with hospital infection standard precautions. The study subjects were nurses in a university hospital in Daegu, South Korea, and a self-administered survey was carried out using a standardized questionnaire from 1st to 15th August, 2012. A total of 187 questionnaires were used for analysis. Those who were injured by a syringe needle for the last year accounted for 29.96%, and those exposed to patients' blood or body fluid on their damaged skin/mucous membranes accounted for 26.2%. There were statistically significant differences in attitude and compliance according to safety environment for hospital infection standard precautions. The knowledge score of the subjects about standard precautions was $15.30{\pm}1.51$ on a 19 point scale and had significant difference according to the subjects' education level. The attitude score was $2.86{\pm}0.49$ on a 4 point scale and had significant difference depending on how experienced they were on the career. The compliance score was $3.41{\pm}0.38$ on a 4 point scale and had significant difference depending on their age and their experience on the career. In conclusion, it can be said that systematic and continuous practical training is required to improve compliance with standard precautions. Particularly, it is needed to provide less experienced nurses with educational opportunities along with their supervisors' ongoing attention and position personnel appropriately.

Objectives: Although the World Health Organization (WHO) initiative "My 5 Moments for Hand Hygiene" has been lauded as effective in preventing hospital-associated infections, little is known about healthcare workers (HCWs)' hand hygiene behavior. In this study, we sought to assess knowledge and attitudes towards the concepts in this initiative, as well as associated factors, among Vietnamese HCWs at a general hospital. Methods: A structured questionnaire was administered to HCWs at a central Vietnamese general hospital in 2015. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with HCWs' knowledge and attitudes towards hand hygiene. Results: Of 120 respondents, 65.8% and 67.5% demonstrated appropriate knowledge and a positive attitude, respectively, regarding all 5 hand hygiene moments. Logistic regression indicated better knowledge of hand hygiene in workers who were over 30 years old, who were direct HCWs (rather than managers), who had frequent access to clinical information, and who received their clinical information from training. Those who worked in infectious and tropical disease wards, who had frequent access to clinical information, and who received information from training were more likely to have a positive attitude towards hand hygiene than their counterparts. Conclusions: Although many Vietnamese HCWs displayed moderate knowledge and positive attitudes towards the WHO hand hygiene guidelines, a key gap remained. Regular education and training programs are needed to increase knowledge and to improve attitudes and practices towards hand hygiene. Furthermore, a combination of multimodal strategies and locally-adapted interventions is needed for sustainable hand hygiene adherence.

This study was uncertaken to find an effective management modality for patients with hypertension. Patients 60years or older were selected for this purpose from a general hospital and a welfare center in Pusan and from a public health clinic in Cheju Island. During the month of October in 1984. the management modality for hypertension. the incurred medical expenses. and knowledge about the hypertension were analyzed and compared. The following results were obtained: 1. The a erage total medical expense per year was highest at the general hospital followed by the public health clinic and the welfare center. 2. It was found that the patients chose the public health clinic for its low medical cost. the welfare center for its proximity as well as for its low medical cost. and the general hospital for its quality medical services Also. the study has shown that the prescription of drugs was the major service provided by the public health clinic whereas the blood pressure measurement. the prescription of drugs. and family planning were the primary service offered by the welfare center. Drug prescription and blood pressure measurement were two of the most important services by the general hospital. 3. It was shown that the knowledge of hypertension was highnest at the welfare center whereas the management of hypertension was highest at the public health clinic. Based on above results and considering the chronic nature. it is believed that family awareness of the illness was one of the most important aspects for effective management of the hypertension for the elderly patients. In addition. the health care clinics at every level should come forward to execition of the educational programs and home nursing schomes for the effective management of the hypertension patients.

본 연구의 목적은 DEA(자료포락분석)의 CCR, BCC 모형과 MPI(맘퀴스트 생산성 지수)에 대한 분석을 통해 지방의료원의 효율성과 생산성 변화를 평가하는데 있다. 이는 DEA 모형이 DMU(의사결정단위)의 효율성을 평가할 수 있는 비모수적 기법이며, 또한 MPI가 특정 조직의 생산성 변화를 평가하는데 유용한 기법이기 때문이다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 2003년부터 2008년까지 34개 지방의료원의 6년간 시계열 데이터를 효율성 분석에 활용하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같이 요약된다. 먼저, 지방의료원은 평균 3.6%의 경영 비효율성을 포함하고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 DMU의 기술 비효율성에 비해 규모 비효율성에 더 큰 원인이 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 두 번째, MPI 분석을 통해 지방의료원은 기술효율성을 증대시킴으로써 총생산성 증가를 도모해야 함을 알 수 있었으며, 이를 위해 지방의료원의 내부혁신과 정부차원의 정책지원이 필요하였다.
