  • Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the clinical alarm occurrence and management of nurses toward clinical alarms in the intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: This observational study was conducted with 40 patients and nurses cases in two ICUs of a university hospital. This study divided 24 hours into the unit of an hour and conducted two times of direct observation per unit hour for 48 hours targeting the medical devices applied to 40 patients. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 23. Results: On average, 3.8 units of medical devices were applied for each patient and the ranges of alarm settings were wide. During 48 hours, 184 cases of clinical alarm were occurred by four types of medical devices including physiological monitors, mechanical ventilators, infusion pumps, and continuous renal replacement therapy. Among them, false alarm was 110 cases (59.8%). As for the alarm management by ICU nurses, two-minute alarm mute took up most at 38.0% (70 cases), and no response was second most at 32.6% (60 cases). When valid alarm sounded, nurses showed no response at 43.2%. Conclusion: The findings suggest that a standard protocol for alarm management should be developed for Korean ICU settings. Based on the protocol, continuous training and education should be provided to nurses for appropriate alarm management.

  • The OSI fault management is composed of specific management functions such as the Alarm Reporting Function, Event Report Management Function, and Log Control Function. The fault management is to notify and manage the events and the alarm data which are transfered as the information of the fault management may be managed effectively. And it is necessary to design the model of the fault management properly by using these functions for the study of network management activities. Therefore, in this paper, the integrated management model of the Event Report Management and Log Control Function based on Alarm Reporting Function is investigated. Also, the system component of alarm collector which is added in the manager system for the effective fault management is studied and proposed.

  • Most people do not think seriously about the concept of time management, just to spend the precious time sheets. Regular life can sustain mental and physical health. That's why time management is an important factor in living. In the thesis, smart alarm patch is designed using a wireless communication NFC technology that gradually develop and attract attention. Due to the alarm, regular hours is helped to improve the quality of life. For this, analysis was performed using the UML in this system, linked to the smart alarm system patches and NFC technology, Java Script language, Adobe Muse CC was used embody web document and mobile content.

  • For a long time, a number of alarm processing techniques have been researched to reduce the number of actuated alarms for operators to deal with effectively during the abnormal as well as the normal conditions. However, the strategy that the only systems with a few clear technologies should be used as a part of an alarm annunciation system has been adopted considering the effectiveness and the reliability in actual alarm processing systems. Therefore, alarm processing systems have difficult knowledge-base maintenance problems and limited expansion or enhancement defects. To solve these shortcomings, the integrated knowledge-base which can express the general information related to all the alarm processing techniques is proposed and its management tool, Knowledge Input Tool for Alarm (KIT-A) which can handle the data of the knowledge-base efficiently is developed. Since the integrated knowledge-base with KIT-A can manipulate all the alarm information without the modification of alarm processing system itself, it is expected to considerably advance the overall capability of maintenance and enhancement of the alarm processing systems.

  • According to the development if the ships navigational equipment, a bridge system has been improved but a marine accidents by human error haven't been reduced Recently our interest is concentrated on a suitable ergonomic arrangement and design of the ships bridge equipment to reduce an error due to human factors. The bridge alarm system should be designed to recognize the alarm informations as soon as possible and to deliver it clearly. Internationally, the matter is being discussed on the BAMS(Bridge Alarm Management System) in a view if a ergonomic bridge design, but a practical design method is not getting result.. In this paper I would like to review an application approach of human engineering ergonomics to a bridge alarm system and propose a conceptual design if the Ergonomic Integrated Bridge Alarm Management System(EIBAMS)

  • 최근 급속한 네트워크 기술의 발달로 이들에 대한 관리의 필요성이 제기되었고 이를 위해 SNMP와 CMIP등과 같은 표준이 등장하여 사용되어 왔다. 그러나 점점 더 다양하고 복잡한 네트워크가 형성되자 이들에 대한 효율적인 관리가 필요하게 되었다. 현재, TMN은 개념에 있어서 보편성 및 가장 일반화된 관리개념이며 최종적으로 도달할 네트워크 관리 개념을 포함하고 있다. CORBA는 분산환경에서 응용프로그램을 쉽게 구현할 수 있는 기반을 제공하고 있다. 따라서 이러한 두 가지 기술을 접목한 CORBA와 TMN을 통합하고자 하는 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 현재의 CORBA/TMN 통합에 대한 연구를 바탕으로 효율적인 네트워크 통합 관리 구조를 정의하고 TMN의 기능중 Alarm Surveillance를 구조에 맞춰 구현하였다. 구현된 Alarm Surveillance System은 다양한 대리자들로부터 보고되는 여러 형태의 Alarm 정보에 대해, 처리 및 운용자에 대한 보고수행 등을 일관성 있게 처리하고 있는 것을 보여주고 있다. 따라서 제시된 Alarm Surveillance System은 사용자에게 일관성 있는 관리행위를 제공함으로써 다양한 관리구조가 적용된 복잡한 네트워크 관리를 제공할 수 있다. 또한 전체 네트워크로부터 필요한 통계분석을 위한 자료 수집 등의 편의를 제공할 것이다.Abstract Recently, due to the rapid development of network technology, the need for the network management appeared. So two representative standardards, SNMP and CMIP, have been applied to many network management system. But the more complex and vaious network are constructed, the demand for more efficient network management technology grew bigger. Currently, TMN technology is beginning to be widely applied to the management of networks. CORBA has been widely adopted for developing distributed systems in many areas of information technology. CORBA provides the infrastructure for the interoperability of various object-oriented management applications in a distributed environment, and, recently there have been world-wide research for the integration of CORBA within a TMN framework. Many attempts have been made to enable network management using CORBA techonology and some are working on already. This paper defines the architecture for integrated network management based on current CORBA/TMN integration technologies and then presents the design and implementation for alarm surveillance system which was applied to the defined architecture. The prototype implementation was done using IONA orbix. The proposed integrated network management framework will provide users with consistent management operations and ability to manage complex and various networks and to gather statistical data from those networks.

  • The people who are in the noise factory are difficult to hear and recognize about fire and to evacuate quickly when a fire occurs. This study was conducted to analyze workplace's background noise of 31 factories in Incheon and to know the workplace noise level comparing to fire alarm sound level. The measured average noise level was 96.8dB(A). Noise level of measured result was exceeded as 6.8dB(A) comparing to NFSC (National Fire Safety Code) noise level of 90dB. NFPA suggests that when background noise exceeds 85dB or more than that, other methods should be considered to know alarm sound. Also fire alarm sound should exceed more than 15dB(A) comparing to background noise level. Therefore it was concluded that the design of the fire alarm systems should not be applied to the workplace without considering background noise and it needs to be improved with regulations and the systems.
