Purpose : This study analyzes prehospital care report of emergency service at prehospital stage, examines characteristics of activities of 119 paramedics and its users and aims to provide help for improving emergency system in future. Methods : Data collected were 119 prehospital care report and hospital records with 7,160 patients to emergency room by 119 ambulance from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, 2006 and percentage and frequency of the data were obtained. Results : 1) Use of emergency room by 119 ambulance was increased in summer and autumn such as August(9.1%), September(11.2%) and October(13.5%) and it was more frequently used on Monday(17.3%), Saturday(17.2%) and Friday(16.1%) by telephone(98.6%). 2) Using emergency room was most in over sixties(51.8%), men(64.2%), community residents (78.3%), by report of family(50.3%) and at '09:01~12:00'(16.5%). 3) Symptoms of emergency room users included headache, chest pain, stomachache, lumbago and others as 40.6% and places where patients were found were at home(60.1%) due to chronic internal diseases at 49.2%. 4) Most of non-emergency patients(80.2%) arriving at hospital had normal pupil condition (88.4%) and clear consciousness(71.2%) and most of them left hospital after having first-aid treatment. 5) Physiological symptom tests evaluated by paramedics at prehospital stage included blood pressure(56.6%), pulse(22.9%), breathing(13.0%) and temperature(9.2%), and there was no SPo2 case. 6) Classification of severity by paramedics showed difference as emergency patients(18.0%) by paramedics and those(24.9%) by hospital. 7) First-aid treatments by paramedics at prehospital stage were promoting comfort(28.9%), hemostasis(7.7%), fixing cervical vertebrae(4.0%) and ensuring vein route(3.1%). 8) Selectors of medical agency were patients or guardians(86.2%) and emergency medical technicians(73.6%). Conclusion : To sum up the above research, it was found that percentage of using 119 ambulance by non-emergency patients was higher and paramedics performed basic first-aid treatment rather than professional first-aid treatment due to several conditions such as legal problems, range of allowance, etc. Therefore, it is considered that method to reduce frequency of ambulance by non-emergency patients and approaches to alleviate limitations of allowance of paramdeics to make them perform effective first-aid treatment at prehospital stage should be sought in the dimension of individual, organization and government.

본 연구는 SNAGs(Sustained natural apophyseal glides)기법과 시각을 융합한 바이오피드백 훈련이 목 기능 장애 환자에게 고유수용성 감각과 목의 기능장애에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 목 기능장애 환자 31명을 대상으로 무작위로 SNAGs기법과 바이오피드백 훈련으로 할당하였으며, 관절위치 감각과 목 기능장애 평가를 중재 전-후 실시하였다. 16명의 SNAGs 중재그룹은 멀리건 벨트를 이용하여 굽힘, 폄, 회전을 실시하였고, 15명의 바이오피드백군은 시각적 피드백을 통한 깊은목 굽힘근 훈련을 실시하였다. 두 집단은 동일한 시간, 동일한 조건에서 20분 동안 주당 2회를 4주간 실시하였다. 바이오피드백 훈련 집단이 SNAGs 집단보다 고유수용성 감각에서 좌, 우 회전 모두 유의한 향상을 보였으며(p< 0.05), 목 기능장애는 SNAGs기법을 이용한 집단이 바이오피드백 훈련 집단보다 유의한 효과를 보였다(p<0.05). 따라서 SNAGs기법은 목의 기능제한 해결에 효과적이며, 바이오피드백 훈련은 고유수용성 감각 향상에 긍정적인 중재 방법이 될 것이다. 향후 목 통증 환자에 대한 연구를 진행시, 질환의 특성에 따라 중재방법을 선택 할 수 있을 것이다.
