  • 식중독에 의한 사회경제적 손실을 최소화하기 위해서는 식중독과 관련된 경제적 비용 손실을 추정하는 것이 중요하다. 하지만 자료의 부족과 다양한 비용 항목의 존재로 식중독과 관련된 사회경제적 손실비용을 정확하게 추정하기에 어려운 점 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 식중독 발생에 의한 손실비용을 추정하기에 앞서 국외에서 사용되는 사회경제적 비용항목의 기반 자료 확보를 목적으로 수행되었다. 2009-2019년 국외 식중독과 관련된 사회경제적 손실비용 측정 연구의 사례 조사를 위해 문헌 조사를 실시하였다. 이 연구에서는 사회경제적 손실비용을 크게 의료기간에 방문한 외래/입원환자 및 의료기관에 미방문한 경험환자로 구분하였다. 또한 이들의 직접비용 및 간접비용을 고려하였고, 더 나아가 기업비용 및 행정비용 항목으로 구분하여 조사하였다. 조사 결과 문헌별, 나라별 상이한 비용항목을 사용하여 손실비용을 추정하는 것으로 관찰되었다. 직접의료비의 경우 모든 연구에서 외래 또는 입원진료비를 선정하여 비용을 산출한 것으로 관찰되었기 때문에 나라별 의료서비스의 체제 및 비용에 따라 항목을 선정해야 한다. 직접비의료비의 경우 몇 몇의 연구에서 외래 방문에 소요된 교통비만을 고려하였기 때문에 간병비 고려 여부에 대해서는 더 논의가 필요할 것으로 사료된다. 간접비용 중 조기사망비용, 작업손실비용, 여가손실비용 및 삶의 질 저하/고통비용은 고려하였으나, 병문안 기회비용은 모든 연구에서 고려하지 않았다. 직접의료비와 마찬가지로 행정비용의 경우에도 국가별 정부 예산이 상이하기 때문에 각 나라에 맞는 항목을 고려해야할 것이다. 따라서 이러한 조사 결과를 바탕으로 국내 식중독 발생에 의한 사회경제적 손실비용 분석을 위해 어떠한 비용 항목을 고려해야 할 것인지에 대한 검증절차가 필요할 것이다. 본 연구는 국내 식중독 발생에 의한 사회경제적 손실비용 분석을 위한 기초적인 정보를 제공할 것이다.

  • Objectives: The Indonesian Ministry of Health launched isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) in 2016, with general practitioners (GPs) at the frontline of this program. However, the extent to which GPs have internalized this program remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to identify the knowledge and attitudes of GPs towards the IPT program in Indonesia. Methods: This study used an online, self-administered questionnaire distributed via e-mail and social messaging services. A logistic regression model was employed to identify the explanatory variables influencing the level of knowledge and attitudes toward IPT among GPs in Indonesia. An empirical analysis was conducted separately for each response variable (knowledge and attitudes). Results: Of the 418 respondents, 128 (30.6%) had a good knowledge of IPT. Working at a public hospital was the only variable associated with good knowledge, with an adjusted odds ratio (aOR) of 1.69 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02 to 2.81). Furthermore, 279 respondents (66.7%) had favorable attitudes toward IPT. In the adjusted logistic regression analysis, good knowledge (aOR, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.34 to 0.89), 1-5 years of work experience (aOR, 2.09; 95% CI, 1.21 to 3.60), and having experienced IPT training (aOR, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.25 to 0.93), were significantly associated with favorable attitudes. Conclusions: In general, GPs in Indonesia had favorable attitudes toward IPT. However, their knowledge of IPT was limited. GPs are an essential element of the IPT program in the country, and therefore, adequate information dissemination to improve their understanding is critical for the long-term viability and quality of the IPT program in Indonesia.

  • Purpose : Recently, cancer has become a chronic disease that requires supervision because of early diagnosis and the development of therapeutic technology. As a result, cancer patients are interested in improving the quality of their lives besides the treatment of cancer itself. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a qualitative research to understand the vivid experiences of cancer patients and structure their treatment experience. Among qualitative researches, grounded theory is developed based on the data collected in the field. The grounded theory research method is easy to analyze for the process and structure of the treatment experience. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to provide basic data on the integrated medical experience of cancer patients Methods : Participants were conveniently selected, and the criteria for selection were for those who had more than 1 month of hospitalization so that they could dictate their situation and experience in a meaningful manner. Data was collected through in-depth interviews and continued until the data were saturated through theoretical sensitivity and continuous comparison methods. The collected data were analyzed through the process of open-coding, axial coding, and selection coding, which are the research methods of grounded theory. Results : Cancer patients differ in their path, purpose, and attitudes depending on their respective situations and the internal and external resources of individuals. There is also a difference in the perception of their situation among the cancer patients and their families. Cancer patients were shown to recognize and cope with problems in the integrated medical treatment process, and have been classified into 6 different types after the results. Cancer patients showed positive changes in terms of physical, emotional, and lifestyle after their integrated medical treatment. Cancer patients perceived the integrated medical treatment process as a horizontal relationship structure and with diversity. Conclusions : The experience of integrated medical treatment of cancer patients is a process of rehabilitation that heals the body and restores life within the interaction of support system, contextual situation, and internal resources of the individual. Despite this, there is a need not only for the efforts of integrated medical service providers but also institutional support in the future with regards to the current weaknesses and points for improvement. In addition, there is a need for an objective criterion to measure the outcome of integrated medicine for the standardization of integrated medical services.

  • 본 연구는 기존의 서비스디자인 방법론의 소수 데이터를 기반으로 휴리스틱 기반의 연구 한계를 극복하고, 의료서비스의 질적 수준 관리에서 핵심가치로 주목받고 있는 경험데이터의 객관적 측정 및 가공에 관한 모델을 개발하기 위한 연구이다. 이론적 배경에서 의료서비스에서 경험의 중요성, 경험데이터의 측정 및 가공, 환자중심성 실현에 관한 문헌연구를 진행하였다. 이와 같은 문헌 및 이론적 배경 연구결과를 기반으로 다음과 같이 4가지 연구변수에 대하여 조작적 정의하고, 통계적으로 검정을 진행하였다. 가설 H1은 3가지 요인 관점의 경험데이터 측정이 페르소나 모델링에 주는 영향이고, 가설 H2는 페르소나 모델링이 서비스청사진 시각화에 주는 영향, 가설 H3은 서비스청사진 시각화는 환자중심성 실현에 주는 영향, 가설 H4는 페르소나 모델링이 환자중심성의 실현에 주는 영향이다. 요인분석, 신뢰성 분석, 상관분석의 데이터 기초검정 후 회귀분석기법으로 검증한 결과 4가지 가설은 모두 채택되었다. 결론적으로 병원에서 좋은 의료진과 의료장비만을 갖춘다고 해서 그 가치를 인정받기 어려운 시대이기에 환자들에겐 의료진과 의료장비의 효용보다 지속해서 어떠한 의료서비스 경험을 얻고 있는지가 더 중요하다는 의미를 파악할 수 있었다. 서비스 경제의 시대에서 병원서비스 경쟁력의 핵심은 매력적인 경험을 제공하느냐가 병원의 진짜 실력이 되기에 본 연구 주제인 경험데이터의 측정과 가공이 환자중심성의 실현과 스마트병원 구현에 중요한 의미가 있을 것이다.

  • Purpose: The third molar extraction is one of the mostly performed procedures in the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery. In most of dental clinic or hospital, the third molar extraction used to be frequently performed in an office-based surgery, and most patients did not have specific medical history with young ages. Medical history taking are dependent on the only way by asking to the patients about their individual conditions. Therefore, as the specialists of the oral and maxillofacial surgery in the field of dentistry, we suggest a new policy that the preoperative lab must be performed routinely before extraction of the third molar. Methods: This study is based on 1,096 patients who have been managed with third molar extractions, from March 2008 to September 2011 by a single surgeon. The preoperative lab, including complete blood count, coagulation panel, chemistry and serology, was performed before any surgical procedures. The results were informed to the patients regardless of their abnormalities, and any abnormalities related to the surgical procedures, such as platelet count and coagulation factors, were checked and corrected safely. Results: Through the preoperative blood test, systemic diseases that the patients had not recognized before, such as anemia, leukopenia, fatty liver and chronic renal disease, were identified. Patients with acute or chronic leukemia, Hepatitis B, and HIV positive, were also detected as a small number. Also, the possibilities of the cross-infection between dentists and patients or between patients and patients, and any other emergency situations can be prevented; as well as the public health condition can be improved, too. The patients were satisfied with low cost preventive blood test and high quality of medical services. Conclusion: Therefore, routine medical lab testing, including history taking are needed before an office-based minor surgery, such as third molar extractions, and these results were suggested as a new policy in the field of dentistry.

  • The goal of medicine is to contribute to promoting national health by preventing diseases and providing treatment. The scope of modern medicine isn't merely confined to disease testing, treatment and prevention in accordance to that, and making experiments by using the human body is widespread. The advance in modern medicine has made a great contribution to valuing human dignity and actualizing a manly life, but there is a problem that has still nagged modern medicine: treatment and healing for terminal patients including cancer patients. In advanced countries, pain care and hospice medicine are already universal. Offering a helping hand for terminal patients to lead a less painful and more manly life from diverse angles instead of merely focusing on treatment is called the very hospice medicine. That is a comprehensive package of medical services to take care of death-facing terminal patients and their families with affection. That is providing physical, mental and social support for the patients to pass away in peace after living a dignified and decent life, and that is comforting their bereaved families. The National Hospice Organization of the United States provides terminal patients and their families with sustained hospital care and home care in a move to lend assistance to them. In our country, however, tertiary medical institutions simply provide medical care for terminal patients to extend their lives, and there are few institutional efforts to help them. Hospice medicine is offered mostly in our country by non- professionals including doctors, nurses, social workers, pastors or physical therapists. Terminal patients' needs cannot be satisfied in the same manner as those of other patients, and it's needed to take a different approach to their treatment as well. Nevertheless, the focus of medical care is still placed on treatment only, which should be taken seriously. Ministry for Health, Welfare & Family Affairs and Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service held a public hearing on May 21, 2008, on the cost of hospice care, quality control and demonstration project to gather extensive opinions from the academic community, experts and consumer groups to draw up plans about manpower supply, facilities and demonstration project, but the institutions are not going to work on hospice education, securement of facilities and relevant legislation. In 2002, Ministry for Health, Welfare & Family Affairs made an official announcement to introduce a hospice nurse system to nurture nurse specialists in this area. That ministry legislated for the qualifications of advanced nurse practitioner and a hospice nurse system(Article 24 and 2 in Enforcement Regulations for the Medical Law), but few specific plans are under way to carry out the regulations. It's well known that the medical law defines a nurse as a professional health care worker, and there is a move to draw a line between the responsibilities of doctors and those of nurses in association with medical errors. Specifically, the roles of professional hospice are increasingly expected to be accentuated in conjunction with treatment for terminal patients, and it seems that delving into possible problems with the job performance of nurses and coming up with workable countermeasures are what scholars of conscience should do in an effort to contribute to the development of medicine and the realization of a dignified and manly life.

  • 본 연구는 수술환자의 타지역 의료이용과 관련된 요인을 규명하기 위하여 2004년부터 2006년도의 퇴원손상 환자조사뿐 아니라, 인구센서스 및 보건의료자원 실태조사자료를 이용하여 교차분석, 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시한 결과 다음과 같다. 첫째, 수술환자의 의료이용은 수도권 중심으로 집중화 현상이 뚜렷하다. 이를 개선하기 위해서 정부에서는 의료기관 및 병상수를 공급하는 일 뿐만 아니라 의료의 지역화를 위해 지방에서의 의료의 질적 수준을 올리는 정책이 필요하다. 둘째, 눈 및 부속기 질환 및 암환자의 타지역 수술률이 높으므로 질병에 따른 의료의 지역화를 위한 특정 질환의 지역화 정책추진이 요구된다. 셋째, 산재환자 수술환자의 타지역 진료율이 시간이 갈수록 증가하므로 손상환자를 위한 지역화 정책도 필요하다 할 것이다.

  • Background: Based on the individualistic approach of experienced dental hygienists, this study attempted to provide basic data to find effective measures of human resource management by analyzing the correlation between organizational socialization and professional self-concept. Methods: Dental hygienists currently working in the Daegu area were evaluated. Nine questions related to duties, twenty-seven questions related to professional self-concept, and thirty-eight questions related to organizational socialization were included in the study. The reliability was professional self-concept (Cronbach's α = 0.859) and organizational socialization (Cronbach's α = 0.840). Results: Of the total 135 points for professional self-concept, the mean score of the participants was 62.67±8.45 points. In the sub-area, flexibility was the highest at 19.28±2.46 points, and communication was the lowest at 9.69±1.44 points. Of 190 points, organizational socialization averaged at 123.40±12.82 points. In the subarea, personal characteristics were the highest at 30.37±3.71 points, and occupational identity was the lowest at 10.34±1.94. Higher age (F=30.89, p<0.000), marital status (F=10.22, p<0.002), graduate or higher educational qualification (F=9.16, p<0.000), were associated with a higher position (F=20.62, p<0.000) and work experience (F=22.66, p<0.0000), when there was no intention to turnover (F=8.05, p<0.000). Organizational socialization was higher in participants with higher age (F=7.89, p<0.000), educational qualification (F=8.02, p<0.000), and position (F=5.12, p<0.007); higher work experience in general hospital (F=4.50, p<0.012); no intention to turnover (F=7.450, p<0.000); and no intention to turnover (F=24.46, p<0.000). Organizational socialization showed a significant positive correlation with professional self-concept (r=0.721, p<0.000); job performance and skills (r=0.615, p<0.000) and organizational commitment and satisfaction (r=0.610, p<0.000) showed a high positive correlation. Turnover intention (β=0.213, p<0.000) was found to have a significant effect on organizational socialization. Leadership (β=0.168, p<0.05) and satisfaction (β=0.483, p<0.000) were found to have a significant effect. The total explanatory power of this variable was 62.7%. Conclusion: To ensure successful organizational socialization, human resource management should be performed through regular verification, which can result in improved quality of dental care services.
