Objectives: This study intends to analyze the relationship between medical service experience and subjective health awareness by using data from Panel Study of Worker's Compensation Insurance(PSWCI). Methods: Tte χ2-test was performed to investigate subjective health awareness and medical service experience relevance. Logistic analysis was performed to analyze the influencinge factors. Results: The subjective health awareness scored "bad" in"'lack treatment period" compared to "adequate treatment period" in medical service experience (OR = 2.603 [95% CI = 1.666-2.555]). Conclusions: To improve the subjective health awareness of patients with industrial accidents, the industrial accident compensation and medical care approval system should be improved, and long-term industrial accident insurance policies should be developed to accommodate direct and indirect medical services.

보건의료환경 변화에 따른 환자들의 의료수요에 부응하고 합리적인 경영대책을 마련하여 환자들에게 양질의 치과의료서비스를 제공하고 진료환경을 개선시킬 목적으로 계속구강건강관리 환자 149명을 대상으로 치과의료서비스를 제공 받은 후의 진료 만족도와 진료만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하였다. SPSS Ver 13.0을 이용하여 일반적 특성에 따른 치과의료서비스 만족도, 치과의료서비스의 질에 대한 만족도는 평균분석을 하였고, 일반적 특성 및 치과의료서비스 만족도가 치과진료 만족도에 미치는 영향은 회귀분석을 하였다. 다중회귀분석에서 치과진료 만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인은 직원요인, 외부환경요인, 진료절차였다. 치과의료 서비스의 질을 향상시키고 환자의 만족도를 높이기 위해서는 직원들의 체계적인 관리 및 교육이 이루어져야 할 것이다.

The health insurance system in Korea is well-established and provides benefits for the entire national population. In Korea, when patients are treated at a hospital, the hospital receives a partial payment for the treatment from the patient, and the remaining amount is provided by the health insurance service. The Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) assesses whether the treatment was appropriate. If HIRA deems the treatment appropriate, the doctor can receive payment from the health insurance service. However, this system has several drawbacks. In this study, we aimed to provide examples of the problems that can occur in relation to HIRA assessments in Korea through actual clinical cases.

Rice hull was used as a additive in order to find the effect for incresing of mushroom growth and yield in Chungnam Provincial techinical institution. 1 Treatment of 80% rice hull in small Neutaribeosut mycelial grow duration is shorter about 11 days and yield increased about 7% than conventional culture. 2. In case of Chongpung Neutaribeosut bottle culture, mycelial growth duration is shorter about two to three days in additive of 30 to 80% rice hull compared to conventional but yield similar to conventional. 3. Treatment of 30% rice hull in Agrocybe aegerita bottle culture, mycelial growth and yield increased 6days and 6% than convrntional, respectively 4 Treatment additived of 30% to 40% rice hull in Ganoderma lucidum bottle culture, similar to 454ays demand in mycelial grow duration and 38g yield/bottle in conventioal culture methods.

Objectives : Health literacy can affect medical results. This study aimed to detect to the modify point of health literacy assessment tools. Methods : The general Korean Medicine service procedure was recorded and categorized. The participants were in- or out-patient of Korean Medical hospital. Written informed consents were obtained. Results : A total of 20 patients participated, with nine males and eleven females. The chief complaints were pain, growth, cerebral infarction sequela, dyspepsia, diarrhea, feeling of helplessness, mental stress, postpartum symptoms, and menstrual disorder. The Korean Medicine service were categorized into collecting patient information, relationship building, and treatment. Terms used in the service embraced general medical terms and Korean Medical terms. Conclusions : The Korean-medical health literacy assessment tool should incorporate western-eastern combined treatment and Korean medical terms.

Concrete structures stand in poor surrounding than it has ever been met before, because they are installed in severe conditions such as chloride penetration. $CO_2$ gas, water and so on. Therefore, the countermeasure to efficiently protect from the deterioration of concrete structures should be urgently considered. From this point of view, this study was aimed to develop surface treatment systems for concrete structures, which cover physical properties, long term durability and economic consideration. Developing the optimal surface treatment materials, powder type polymer or liquid type polymer was added to inorganic base materials. Three surface treatment materials which had shown best results in primary tests were selected and durability tests were fulfilled. Consequently optimum surface treatment material was developed. The surface treatment materials, which were developed through this study, can efficiently extend the service life of concrete structures. As a result, the life cycle cost should be reduced and the waste of material resources would be cut down.

Background: This study analyzed the association between the volume of heart surgeries and treatment outcomes for hospitals in the last five years. Methods: Hospitals that perform heart surgeries were chosen throughout Korea as subjects using from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service. The treatment outcome of the heart surgeries was defined as the mortality within 30 postoperative days, while the annual volume of the surgeries was categorized. Logistic regression was used as the statistical analysis method, and the impacts of the variables on the heart surgery treatment outcomes were then analyzed. Results: The chance of death of patients who received surgery in a hospital that performed 50 or more surgeries annually was noticeably lower than patients receiving operations from hospitals that performed fewer than 50 surgeries annually, indicating that the chance of death decreases as the annual volume of heart surgeries in the hospital increases. In particular, the mortality rate in hospitals that performed more than 200 surgeries annually was less than half of that in hospitals that performed 49 or fewer surgeries annually. Conclusion: These results indicate that accumulation of a certain level of heart surgery experience is critical in improving or maintaining the quality of heart surgeries. In order to improve the treatment outcomes of small hospitals, a support policy must be implemented that allows for cooperation with experienced professionals.

Background: The costliness index (CI) is an index that is used in various ways to improve the quality of medical care and the management of appropriate treatment in medical institutions. However, the current calculation method for CI has a limitation in reflecting the actual medical cost of the patient unit because the outpatient and inpatient costs are evaluated separately. It is desirable to calculate the CI by integrating the medical cost into the episode unit. Methods: We developed an episode-based CI method using the episode classification system of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to the National Inpatient Sample data in Korea, which can integrate the admission and ambulatory care cost to episode unit. Additionally, we compared our new method with the previous method. Results: In some episodes, the correlation between previous and episode-based CI was low, and the proportion of outpatient treatment costs in total cost and readmission rates are high. As a result of regression analysis, it is possible that the level of total medical costs of the patient unit in low volume medical institute and rural area has been underestimated. Conclusion: High proportion of outpatient treatment cost in total medical cost means that some medical institutions may have provided medical services in the ambulatory care that are ancillary to inpatient treatment. In addition, a high readmission rate indicates insufficient treatment service for inpatients, which means that previous CI may not accurately reflect actual patient-based treatment costs. Therefore, an integrated patient-unit classification system which can be used as a more effective CI indicator is needed.

A plunging ranula is a pseudocyst caused by mucus secreted from the sublingual glands, and it is mainly observed on the mouth floor. Nowadays, sclerotherapy using picibanil has been performed instead of invasive surgical treatment, and studies are reporting safe and effective outcomes. In our study, more than 92% of the 25 patients had marked response after picibanil sclerotherapy, and no serious complications were observed. Picibanil sclerotheraphy can be considered as the primary treatment of plunging ranula for patients who refuse surgery under general anaesthesia.
