요실금은 자신의 의지와는 무관하게 소변이 나오는 배뇨이상으로 삶의 질을 떨어뜨리는 대표적인 여성 질환이다. 치료방법 중 자기장을 이용한 치료는 자발적인 운동을 요구하지 않고, 수치심을 유발하지 않으며, 감염의 위험이 없기 때문에 가장 높은 발전 가능성을 가지고 있다. 하지만 획일화된 치료 프로토콜, 환자 의존적 치료방법, 환자 상태 평가 부재 등의 개선점도 갖고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 자기장을 이용하여 골반저근을 자극하고, 치료 중 환자의 상태 변화를 실시간 모니터링하는 시스템을 제안하였다. 또한, 환자의 요실금 정도에 따른 환자 맞춤형 자기장 치료 시스템을 제안하였다. 제안된 시스템은 자기장 발생장치, 냉각장치, 치료의자, 맥박 모니터링을 이용한 환자 감시 장치, 제어 소프트웨어로 구성되었으며, 시뮬레이션을 통한 고전력 시스템 설계 과정과 개발 후 성능 평가를 수행하였다. 제어 소프트웨어 개발을 통하여 사용의 편의성과 관리의 편의성을 확보하였으며, 환자의 증상별 치료 프로토콜을 적용하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 개발된 환자 모니터링을 포함한 환자 맞춤형 자기장 치료 시스템은 자기장 치료에서 발생할 수 있는 위험성을 줄이고, 환자의 증상에 맞게 패턴화된 치료법을 제시함으로써 요실금 자기장 치료의 효율성을 높일 수 있고, 전/후 치료를 통하여 환자에게 보다 접근된 치료법이라고 판단되었다. 이러한 결과는 요실금 환자들에게 보다 안전하고 체계적인 치료법을 제공하며, 요실금 자기장 치료 방법의 다양한 연구를 유도할 수 있을 것으로 사료되었다.

Background: In general, measurement qualities of cross-culturally adapted quality of life (QOL) measures are altered in many aspects, although versions of them are well-validated measures. The latent trait and measurement qualities of the QOL measures for cancer-related samples should be considered when developing cross-culturally adapted measures. Objects: To investigate the latent trait of the translated into Korean World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) administered to different cancer survivors who had palliative rehabilitation care service (PRCS). Methods: A cross-sectional study with 139 cancer survivors who had an experience of cancer survivorship with PRCS were conducted with a two-step analytic procedure including exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to confirm the latent trait and Rasch rating scale modeling to investigate the measurement qualities of the cross-culturally adapted WHOQOL-BREF measure. Results: While the original WHOQOL-BREF measure constitutes a 4-latent trait, the EFA reveals that 24 items constitute six substantial factors. The item loadings are predominantly spread over factors 1 through 4 in a mixed manner of the latent traits, while the loadings of 'physical health' and 'environmental health' latent traits show similarity to what the original measure intended to assess. The latent trait of the cross-culturally adapted WHOQOL-BREF measure administered to different cancer survivors is likely to reveal more dimensions than the original WHOQOL-BREF measure. Person reliability (i.e., analogous to Cronbach's alpha) and separation are measured with 0.92 and 3.48, respectively. All items except the one item (medical treatment item) fit the Rasch rating model. Conclusion: Findings suggest that the latent trait and the measurement qualities of the cross-culturally adapted WHOQOL-BREF measure should be taken into consideration when applying versions of it to various populations.

The Halliwick concept was developed by James McMillan over 50 years ago, and began as a method for teaching swimming to children with physical disables. After that the Halliwcik concept was developed as a specific strategy(called the Ten-Point Program) for teaching swimming to children with disabilities. Soon after the changes in the physical and emotional behavior were attributed to a unique teaching/learning philosophy and a psycho-sensory-motor learning program that is enhanced by hydrodynamics. Recognizing the therapeutic effects of the Ten-Pont Program adapted the program as a therapeutic intervention called Water Specific Therapy or the Logic Approach to Therapy in Water.

A Proton Therapy Center was established this year in National Cancer Center, Korea. We chose IBA of Belgium as the vendor of the equipment package. A 230 MeV fixed-energy cyclotron will deliver proton beams into two gantry rooms, one horizontal beam room, and one experimental station. The building for the equipment is currently under design with a special emphasis on radiation shielding. Installation of equipments is expected to begin in September next year starting with the first gantry, and the acceptance test will be performed about a year later. To generate therapeutic radiation fields the wobbling method will be a main treatment mode for the first gantry. A pencil beam scanning system on the other hand will be equipped for the second gantry relying on the availability at the time of installation. The beam scanning with intensity modulation adapted will be a most advanced form in radiation therapy known as IMPT. Some details on the project progress, scope of the system, and design of building are described.

Purpose: We investigated the relationship between professional self-concept and the job satisfaction of physical therapists. Methods: The subjects of the study were 221 physical therapists who worked in medical institutions in Seoul city and Kyounggi do. A questionnaire developed by Arthur and adapted by Sohng and Noh was used for measuring the professional self-concept. A questionnaire developed by Kim and Son and adapted by Kim and Jeon was used for measuring the job satisfaction. Results: The levels of the professional self-concept of physical therapists was a mean of 3.51 points and the level of job satisfaction was a mean of 3.32. There was a statistically significant difference for the professional self-concept of physical therapists according to such general characteristics as age (F=6.38, p<0.05), career (F=4.56, p<0.05) and pay (F=15.94, p<0.05), and there was a significant difference of job satisfaction according to such general characteristics as age (F=15.94, p<0.05), career (F=13.65, p<0.05) and pay (F=12.96, p<0.05). (ED note: this sentence made no sense. What I wrote is guesswork. You have to work on it.) The relationship between professional self-concept and job satisfaction showed a positive correlation (r=0.65, p<0.05). Conclusion: These findings show that modifications to the current program may improve the professional self-concept and job satisfaction of physical therapists.
