Clinical and genetic heterogeneity in association with overlapping spectrum is characteristic in pediatric neuromuscular disorders, which makes confirmative diagnosis difficult and time consuming. Considering evolution of molecular genetic diagnosis and resultant upcoming genetically modifiable therapeutic options, rapid and cost-effective genetic testing should be applied in conjunction with existing diagnostic methods of clinical examinations, laboratory tests, electrophysiologic studies and pathologic studies. Earlier correct diagnosis would enable better clinical management for these patients in addition to new genetic drug options and genetic counseling.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore and understand the experience of decision making among women undergoing or forgoing selective fetal reduction who have higher-order multiple pregnancies through assisted reproductive techniques. Methods: A qualitative study was conducted from August 1, to October 30, 2013. Eight participants were interviewed and the interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. Six persons participated in in-depth interviews in person and two participated over the telephone. A thematic analysis was conducted. Results: Four themes were identified and carefully named: Confusion after higher-order multiple pregnancy; Obstacles to choice: Uncertain safety; Weighing between reality and ideality and; Influences of medical professionals. Conclusion: The results demonstrated a wide range of factors considered by women when making decisions about selective fetal reduction, and mothers' feelings of conflict and distress in the decision-making process. The results suggest that it is important for nurses to provide emotional support and consolation, in addition to sufficient information. These findings will help nurses improve their counseling techniques by understanding the situation of infertile couples.

고등학교에서 진학지도 교사 및 담임교사들이 기존의 진학지도 업무를 처리하는데 있어 오프라인상에서 시간적, 공간적 제한으로 진학지도가 어려웠으며, 필요한 자료의 누적과 공유가 어려웠다. 본 논문에서는 진학지도를 위한 방법으로 데이터마이닝 기법을 이용한 진학진로지도 시스템을 도입하여 기존 업무의 문제점을 극복하고 보다 체계적이고 객관적인 진학진로지도와 상담업무를 할 수 있도록 하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 또한 학생들이 각각의 능력에 맞는 진로 설정에 필요한 정보를 웹기반 능동적인 검색으로 학생 본인들의 진로와 관련된 정보를 스스로 취득할 수 있는 기회를 확대하여 진로 설정에 도움을 주고자 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다.

Purpose: The purpose for this study was to identify the present state of Clinical Nurses with Expanded Role (CNERs) and provide basic data to refine the roles of CNERs. In this study, CNREs refers to nurses who perform techniques traditionally done by doctors and use titles such as clinical nursing specialist, educator with consultation, research assistant, coordinator, physician assistant and special examiner. Method: This study was conducted from September 1 to November 12, 2007. Data from 684 nurses from 38 hospitals who responded to the questionnaire were analyzed with descriptive statistics using the SPSS 14.0 program. Results: The mean percentage of time spent was, for direct practice, 41.1%, for education and counseling, 22.8%, for consultation and coordination, 10.4%, for research, 6.8%, for administration, 8.9% and for other activities, 10.0%. The most frequently implemented CNERs, activities included consultation and education for patients and their families, counseling by telephone, history taking, physical examination, reading examination results, psychosocial assessment, managing treatment, input of prescriptions, and writing up patient records, Although not frequently performed, nurses in some fields carried out invasive procedures and prescribed medication and laboratory tests. Conclusion: Although the number of hospital CNERs are rapidly increasing, there is still confusion about the title and framework as well as standards. Furthermore, because some nurses are prescribing medication and laboratory tests as well as performing techniques not traditionally done by nurses, there is an absolute need for a legalized system and systematic education system for the safety of patients who are being cared by all CNERs.

Purpose: The main objective of this study was to develop a continuing education program for school health nurses using the Internet, and evaluate the satisfaction of users. Method: A survey using a self reported questionnaire was done to identify areas where education is needed. A stratified random sampling method was employed to select 1.746 school health nurses and to receive the respondings from 584 school health nurses. The contents of the module for the education program were determined to be counseling and teaching techniques to meet health care needs related to sex, and cessation of smoking. The researchers wrote the educational content for the program, and the storyboards and illustrations appropriate to the module were constructed and the domain was registered. The web site was named 'www.healthyyouth.org'. Results: Three topics were identified where education is needed: youth and sex, youth and smoking, and counseling techniques for children, and programs were developed under the web site named. 'www.healthyyouth.org'. Over 90 percent of the respondents reported that the web site was useful and 100 percent reported that they would recommend the web site to other school health nurses. Conclusion: The web based program allowed school health nurses to study and improve their health care knowledge and skills. Since almost all schools in Korea have personal computers in the infirmary, accessibility to the program is excellent. Based on the results of this study, this type of education program will be a useful method for the continuing education of school health nurses.

본 연구의 목적은 기독청년들을 대상으로 성교육 집단상담 프로그램을 개발하여 그 효과를 검증하는데 있다. 경남 C시에 소재하는 C교회와 S교회에 출석하는 20~35세 미혼 기독청년 30명을 대상으로 실험집단 15명에게 주 1회, 회당 120분, 총 12회기의 프로그램을 실시하였으며, 통제집단 15명은 어떠한 처치도 하지 않았다. 프로그램은 크랩의 성경적 상담모델과 맥민의 인지치료를 기초하여 인지치료기술 12가지를 활용하여 구성하였으며, 효과 검증을 위하여 전경숙과 이효영 그리고 이선자의 성지식 척도와 호선민의 성태도 척도 그리고 선미경이 개발한 성적의사결정 척도를 사용하였다. 자료분석은 척도의 신뢰도 검사(Cronbach's α 검사), χ2-test, Mann-Whitney U test 그리고 Friedman 검정 및 Wilcoxon signed-rank test를 실시하였다. 연구 결과는 기독청년들의 성지식이 증가하였고 보수적인 성태도가 나타났으며, 성적의사결정 능력이 향상되어 프로그램이 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 본 연구가 기독청년들에게 성적존재로서의 진정한 의미를 성경에서 인지하도록 하여 창조의 목적과 질서를 따라 살 때 자신과 이웃 그리고 하나님과의 관계 회복을 누리며 건강한 생활을 하도록 도움을 주는 교회 내 프로그램임을 시사한다.

우리나라는 세계적으로 유례없이 빠른 노령화로 노년층의 인구와 치매유병률의 급격한 상승은 심각한 사회적 문제로 대두되고 있다. 치매노인의 부양은 보편적 삶과는 다른 방식이며 관계적 측면에서 새로운 문화적 실존 관계가 얽힌 세계이다. 이러한 측면에서 치매노인 부양가족의 심리적 문제는 단순한 기술적 문제를 떠나 심층적이고 본질적인 실존의 이해를 위해 연구할 필요성이 있다. 본 연구는 현상학적 연구방법 중 지오르기(Amedeo Giorgi)의 방법을 기반으로 치매노인 부양가족이 경험한 스트레스 현상을 실존주의 집단상담 기법을 활용하여 심층적으로 이해하고 기술하는 데 그 의의를 두었으며 집단상담은 총 8회기로 진행되었다. 실존주의 집단상담 과정을 통한 치매노인 부양가족의 스트레스에 대한 심층적 진술을 실존철학 기반의 지오르기 연구방법 4단계를 적용하여, 실존적 자기 인식 경험의 결과로서 정서적 스트레스, 심리 사회적 스트레스, 시간 의존적 스트레스 경험 현상을 도출하였다. 연구 결과를 통해 탐색된 자신의 아픔을 스스로 표현하지 못하는 치매노인 부양자 고통을 이해하고 치매노인 부양가족들은 자조적 집단상담 활동을 활성화하여 초고령화 사회 진입을 앞둔 우리 사회가 보다 건강해지는 데 기여할 수 있기를 기대한다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze parental decisions regarding pregnancies in which the fetus had sex chromosome abnormalities (SCA) over a ten-year period. Materials and Methods: We collected and reviewed records from our hospital for 2001-2010 and a genetic specialist provided-genetic counseling. Results: We diagnosed 130 cases (0.71%) with SCA out of 18,376 prenatal cases from 2001 to 2010. We reviewed the records and the results of all pregnancies. We also included cases (n=84) of apparently normal anatomic fetuses to analyze the factors influencing parental decisions. We excluded 34 cases with an obvious anomaly or a presumably bad outcome and 12 cases that were not followed up. Forty-three couples (51.2%) continued their pregnancies while forty-one (48.8%) terminated them. Of 38 mosaicism cases, 21 (55.3%) were continued. Among the 20 pregnancies assisted by reproductive techniques, 15 (75%) were continued (P=0.02). More pregnancies were continued when genetic counseling was provided (61.9%) compared to cases in which it was not provided (19%) (P=0.01). Conclusion: Genetic counseling is important in providing appropriate information to parents. Establishing guidelines and protocols will help both obstetricians and parents to make informed decisions.
