  • 본 연구는 타우 PET용 방사성의약품으로 개발된 $^{18}F-THK5351$의 임상적용을 위하여 상용화된 자동 합성장치에 적용한 표지방법을 개발하고자 하였다. $^{18}F-THK5351$의 표지법 개발은 HPLC 분리정제 전 표지반응물의 유기용매, 불순물 및 미반응 물질을 제거하기 위해 고체상 추출 카트리지를 사용하여 정제하는 과정을 포함한 방법(method I)과 전처리 정제과정을 포함하지 않은 방법(method II)으로 나누어 진행하였다. $^{18}F-THK5351$ 표지는 $Sep-Pak^{(R)}$ QMA 카트리지를 사용하여 흡착한 불소-18 음이온을 $K_{2.2.2}/K_2CO_3$으로 용출한 후 $100^{\circ}C$에서 진공상태와 헬륨의 흐름하에 건조한 후 표지 전구체와 $110^{\circ}C$에서 10분간 반응시켰다. 반응 후 1 N HCl을 첨가하여 보호기를 제거한 후 0.8 M $CH_3COOK$를 사용하여 표지 반응물을 중화하였다. 이후 전처리 정제의 유무에 따라 method I과 method II로 진행하였다. Method I에서 전처리 정제 과정의 최적화를 위해 $Sep-Pak^{(R)}$ tC18과 $Oasis^{(R)}$ HLB 고체상 추출 카트리지를 사용하여 비교한 결과 $Sep-Pak^{(R)}$ tC18 카트리지는 57.2%의 표지 반응물이 빠져 나갔고, $Oasis^{(R)}$ HLB 카트리지는 40.6%의 표지 반응물이 빠져나가는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. Method I 표지방법의 방사화학적 수율은 $23.8{\pm}1.9%$(decay-corrected, n=4) 이었고, method II 표지방법의 방사화학적 수율은 $31.9{\pm}6.7%$(decay-corrected, n=10) 이었다. 본 연구를 통해 전처리 정제과정을 거쳐 HPLC로 분리정제하는 방법과 전처리 정제과정을 거치지 않고 표지반응물을 바로 HPLC 정제하는 표지방법을 상용화된 자동합성장치를 사용하여 성공적으로 개발하였다. 하지만 전처리 정제과정을 포함한 표지방법은 표지반응물의 손실이 많아 방사화학적 수율이 낮아지는 단점을 발견하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 전처리 정제과정이 생략된 $^{18}F-THK5351$의 표지방법은 향후 통상적으로 생산 시 보다 유용한 표지방법으로 사용될 것으로 기대된다.

  • The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

  • 우리나라의 주력 산업 중 하나였던 정보통신 및 가전 산업은 점차 수출 비중이 낮아지는 등 수출 경쟁력이 약화되고 있다. 본 연구는 이런 정보통신 및 가전 산업의 수출 제고를 돕기 위해서 객관적으로 수출경쟁력을 분석하고 수출 유망국가를 제시하고자 했다. 본 연구는 수출경쟁력 평가를 위해서 네트워크 분석 중 구조적 특징, 중심성 그리고 구조적 공백 분석을 수행했다. 유망 수출 국가를 선정하기 위해서는 기존에 경제적 요인 외에도 이미 형성된 글로벌 무역 네트워크(ITN) 즉 글로벌 밸류체인(GVC)의 특성을 고려할 수 있는 새로운 변수를 제안했다. 국가간 무역 네트워크 분석에서 Exponential Random Graph Model(ERGM)을 통해 도출된 개별적인 링크에 대한 조건부 로짓값(log-odds)을 수출가능성을 나타낼 수 있는 대리변수로 가정했다. 이런 ERGM의 링크 연결 가능성까지 고려해 수출 유망국가를 추천하는 데는 모수적 접근 방법과 비모수적 접근 방법을 각각 활용했다. 모수적 방법에서는 ERGM에서 도출된 네트워크의 링크별 특성값을 기존의 경제적 요인에 추가 고려하여 우리나라 정보통신 및 가전 산업 수출액을 예측하는 회귀분석 모형을 개발했다. 또한 비모수적 접근 방법에서는 클러스터링 방법을 바탕으로 한 Abnormality detection 알고리즘을 활용했는데, 2개 Peer(동배)에서 벗어난 이상값을 찾는 방법으로 수출 유망국가를 제안했다. 연구 결과에 따르면, 해당 산업 수출 네트워크의 구조적 특징은 이전성이 높은 연결망이었으며, 중심성 분석결과에 따르면 우리나라는 수출에 규모에 비해서 영향력이 약한 것으로 나타났고, 구조적 공백 분석결과에서 수출 효율성이 약한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구가 제안한 추천모델에 따르면 모수 분석에서는 이란, 아일랜드, 북마케도니아, 앙골라, 파키스탄이 유망 수출 국가로 나타났으며, 비모수 분석에서는 카타르, 룩셈부르크, 아일랜드, 북마케도니아, 파키스탄이 유망 국가로 분석되었으며, 분석방법에 따라 추천된 국가에서는 일부 차이가 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 GVC에서 우리나라 정보통신과 가전 산업의 수출경쟁력이 수출 규모에 비해서 높지 않음을 밝혔고, 따라서 수출이 더욱 감소될 수 있음을 보였다. 또한 본 연구는 이렇게 약화된 수출경쟁력을 높일 수 있는 방안으로 다른 국가들과의 GVC 네트워크까지 고려해 수출유망 국가를 찾는 방법을 제안했다는데 의의가 있다.

  • 중이 병변에 관한 수술적 처치는 그 병소 부위가 고막에 국한되어 있거나 중이 강 전벽부 및 내면부의 경우 수술시야가 좋아서 그 처치가 용이하며 술후 청력개선 및 치유경과도 만족할만하며 다양한 수술적 처치방법이 연구되어 널리 시행되고 있다. 그러나 아직도 중이강 후벽이나 상고실에 있는 병소의 처리방법에 대하여서 많은 문제점을 노출시키고 있으며 그 이유로서는 첫째 수술 시야의 장애, 둘째 안면신경 손상의 위험, 셋째 등골 주변부 병소 조작에 의한 외임프의 유출 및 미로 손상의 위험, 넷째 상고실 부위가 너무 협소하여 수술시 병변 확인이 힘든 경우등을 들수 있다. 특히 Staged operation (단계수술)과 Intact Canal Wall Typanoplasty(외청도 보존형 유양동 삭개술)이 소개된 이후로는 더욱더 중이강후벽에 대한 해부학적 지식이 더욱 절실하게 되었으며, 두개골의 인종적 차이를 감안 할때 한국인에 대한 중이강 후벽의 구조적 연구를 필요로 하게 되었다. 중이강의 후벽(유돌벽)은 Reichert's 연골에서 기원되며 제 2새궁(Second branchial arch)에서 발생되며 이 후벽의 구조물중 Sinus tympani는 이관의 내피와(endothelial pouch) 중 후낭 (Saccus posticus) 에서 함기화 (pneumatization)된 중이봉소로서 이부위 병변의 제거가 중이수술시 중요한 의의를 갖는 이유는 만성중이염에 의해 염증성반응이 오래 지속되면 비 후된 점막에 의해 Sinus tympani가 밀폐되고, 지속되는 자극에 의해 주로 안면신경관의 골성부와 등골 및 후반규관(Posterior Semicircular Canal)의 골성부에 육아조직을 형성하기 쉬울뿐더러 진주종에 의해 이 부위의 침식성 파괴를 이르켜 각각의 조직을 노출시킴으로 인해 중요한 합병증을 초래하기 쉬우며 수술로 인한 중대한 후유증이 병발하기 쉬운 곳이므로 임상면에서 중요하다. 그러므로 오래 전부터 이곳 병변의 안전한 제거를 위해 여러사람의 끊임없는 연구가 있었다. Amjad (1968), Donaldson (1970)등은 각각 24개, 20개의 측두골 계측을 실시하여 Sinus tympani의 형태 해부하적 구조에 대하여 연구한 결과 Sinus tympani의 크기와 모양은 여러형태로 변형이 많으며, 특히 주위 중요한 조직과 연관성이 많은 Sinus tympani의 가장 은밀한 심부 (Deepest portion)는 거의 대부분 후부로 신전되는 경우의 변형이 많아 주위조직의 손상없이 Sinus tympani의 병변을 제거하기 힘든 형태라는 결론을 내리고 이곳의 수술적 처리에서 발생 할 수 있는 여러 문제점을 지적하였다. Jako (1965) 등은 Sinus tympani병소의 안전한 제거를 위해 Sinus tympani를 확인할 수 있는 광학거울 (Fine-grade optical mirror)을 이 부위에 넣고 반사시야에서 수술적 처치를 시행할 것을 주장했으나, 수술시의 출혈등에 의한 명료시야의 확보에 문제점이 있어 널리 시행되지 않았다. Saito(1971)등은 Sinus tympani의 접근방법으로서 종래의 중이강내에서 접근방식 (Tympani approach) 보다 유양동을 통한 접근(mastoid approach)이 보다 편리하고 확실한 방법일 것이라는 생각으로 42개의 측두골에 대한 미세해부학적 계측을 실시하였다. 그러나 연구결과에서 그는 Sinus tympani의 상부는 안면신경과 지나치게 가까운 거리에 있어 접근이 용이하지 않았고 후부는 이낭(Otic capsule)에서 발생한 중치밀골(Hard compact bone)로 되어 있으며 안면신경 과 후반규관 사이가 협소하여 수술시 micro-drill burr로서 제거하기가 용이치 않다는 사실을 밝혀내고 mastoid approach로는 Sinus tympani 접근이 힘들다는 결론을 지었다. Goodhill (1973)등은 술자의 위치에서 수술의 전 과정을 시행하는 보편적인 방법에서는 Sinus tympani의 병변제거가 힘들므로 술자의 위치의 반대방향에서 현미경적 시야를 확보함으로써 은밀한 부위의 병변제거가 용이하다는 Circumferential approach 방법을 주장하였으나 수술부위의 감염성이 높다는 점이 문제점으로 지적되었다. 한편 Sinus tympani와 함께 수술시 문제점이 될 수 있는 후벽구조의 일부인 facial recess는 내피와(Endothelial pouch)중 상낭(Saccus superior)과 내낭(Saccus medius)에서 발생한다. 최근 Intact Canal Wall Tympanoplasty에 대한 활발한 연구가 진행되고 이에 따라 단계수술을 시행하는 빈도가 증가함에 따라 이 수술의 성공여부에 관건이 되는 중이강과 유양동의 통기(Ventilation)를 유지시키기 위해서 facial recess에 대한 많은 연구가 있었다. Sheehy(1967)등은 facial recess를 개방하는 이유로서는 첫째 facial recess의 병변이 제거되고 둘째 골성고실륜(bony annulus)을 손상시키지 않고 난원창과 중이강 후부를 노출시킬 수 있으며 셋째 atticotomy를 시행치 않고도 안면신경의 일부와 상고실 (epitympsnum) 을 노출시키는 것이 용이하며 넷째 수술후 유양동의 통기를 유지시키는 Posterior tympanotony를 주장하였다. 중이수술을 성공적으로 시행하려면 중이강후벽의 정확한 형태해부학적 구조를 이해하고 이 부위 병변을 제거하는 용이한 접근방법에 대한 술자의 고도의 기술이 요구되므로 이에 저자는 다양한 해부학적 변형에 대하여 연구할 필요성을 느껴 Sinus tympani와 facial recess를 중심으로 한국인 정상성인의 중이강후벽의 크기와 모양을 계측하였다. 연구대상은 측두골 35개 대상으로 능형융기 (pyramidal eminence) 안면신경, 등골 및 반규관등을 중심으로 주변부 구조의 계측을 시도하였다. 계측의 정확성과 정밀성을 높이기 위해 각각의 은밀한 부위에 Elastic impression material 인 PERMLASTIC$^{(R)}$ (type 1 Polysul_fide base class 2 Regular body)을 삽입한뒤 1 시간 경과 후 그 주위에 복잡한 구조가 양각된 주형물을 분리하여 계측을 실시하였다. 각부위와의 거리는 1/20mm까지 측정가능한 부척이 있는 척도계인 Matui$^{(R)}$ caliper를 사용하여 수술현미경하에서 시행하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) 능형융기의 전부에서 Sinus tympani의 후부 및 Sinus tympani의 후부와 상부의 최대 신전 거리는 각각 2.54(1.05~5.40)mm, 3.22(1.25~7.45)mm, 0.67(0.40~l.75)mm 였다. 2) Sinus tympani는 상하경계가 난원창하부에서 정원창상부인 경우가 29예 (82.9 %)로 가장 많았다. 3 ) Sinus tympani의 후부는 심부(Deepest portion)가 ponticulus와 subiculum 사이인 경우가 22예(62.9 %)로 가장 많았다. 4) Facial recess의 침골와(Fossa incudis)로부터 하고실(hypotympanum)까지의 사선거리와 난원창과 정원창사이 중앙부에서의 횡선거리 및 침골와에서의 횡선거리는 각각 8.13 (7.90~9.55)mm 3.00 (2.85~3.45)mm 1,81 (1.40~2.15)mm 였다. 5) 안면신경관의 골결손 (bony dehiscence)은 5예 (14.3 %)에서 있었다. 6) 등골족판(footplate)의 전후거리 및 시상돌기(Cochleariform process)와 정원창까지의 거리는 각각 2.98(2.85~3.05)mm, 1.42 (1.35~l.55)mm, 1.85(1.45~2.10)mm 였다.

  • 국내에서는 일부 대기업을 제외하고는 공급사슬 관리(SCM) 체제 구축에 매우 소극적이며, 중소기업들은 SCM관리의 개념조차 인식하고 있는 경우가 대 다수이다. 이는 공급망 비효율적 관리로 인한 국내 제조업체, 협력업체, 유통업체 및 물류업체들 재고관리 비용, 수요관리 비용 등 비 효율화를 초래하고 있으며, 나아가 국내 기업의 경쟁력 저하에도 큰 영향력을 미치고 있다. 그 이유는 공급사슬 관리(SCM) 태생적인 특징인 공급사슬 관리(SCM) 전체에 대한 정보 공유 및 프로세스 혁신과, 공급사슬 관리(SCM)가 갖는 광범위함 때문이라고도 할 수 가 있다. 이 논문은 성공적인 공급사슬 관리(SCM) 추진을 위한 공급사슬 관리(SCM) 관련 이론적 논의와 구축전략과 도입 및 성공사례를 연구 및 분석을 통하여 현상황에 대한 고찰과 개선방안에 대해서 제안해보고자 한다. 성공적인 공급사슬 관리(SCM) 추진을 위한 방안을 논의하기 위해서는 먼저 공급사슬 관리(SCM)에 대한 이론적 배경에 대한 고찰이 필요하다. 따라서 II장에서는 공급사슬 관리(SCM)에 대한 기본적인 개념과 필요성에 대해서 기술하고, III장에서는 현재 추진되고 있는 공급사슬 관리(SCM)에 대한 문제점에 대해서 기술할 것이다. 마지막으로IV, V장에서는 공급사슬 관리(SCM) 구축전략과 LG전자사례 및 결론을 기술할 것이다.

  • 기존의 연구비 관리업무는 예산계획, 예산편성 및 예산정산 부분으로 관리됨으로써 여러 가지 문제점이 발생되었다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하고 연구비의 안정적인 확보와 효율적인 운영 및 투명한 집행을 위하여 연구비의 통합관리가 절실하게 요구되고있는 실정이다. 최근의 이러한 추세를 반영하여 기존의 시스템 통합업체(Inmon, IBM)의 데이터 웨어하우스 개발 프로세스에 대해서 연구한 결과 Inmon의 데이터 웨어하우스 개발 프로세스에서는 고전적인 개발주기 기법으로 단계적이며 순차적인 접근방법을 이용한다. 이로 인해 개발단계에서 중복되어지는 부분이 나타나게 되어 각 단계의 진행과정에서 그 이전단계로 피드백이 요청되는 심각한 문제를 유발하게 된다. 또한, IBM의 데이터 웨어하우스 개발 프로세스에서는 개발 프로세스가 수행되는 동안 기능과 데이터가 분리되어 어떤 기능이 데이터를 참조하고 수정하는지 안기 어려운 문제점이 발생되었다. 따라서, 된 논문에서는 이러한 문제점들을 해결하고자 계획 덴 분석단계, 설계단계, 구현 및 시험단계에서 UML을 적용한 엔터프라이즈 환경의 연구비 통합관리 데이터 웨어하우스 개발 프로세스를 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 예산계획 DB, 예산편성 DB, 예산정산 DB의 데이터를 이용하여 사용자가 인하는 정보를 찾아주는 역할을 정보검색 에이전트에서 수행한다. 또한, 정보통합 에이전트에서는 정보검색 에이전트에서 수집한 데이터를 추출, 전송, 가공, 로딩 하여 통합 데이터베이스에 저장한다. 결과적으로, 정보통합 에이전트에서는 다수의 정보소스를 사용자가 하나하나 접근하여 검사하는 노력을 줄여주고 사용자에게 불필요하다고 판단되는 데이터를 걸러주는 역할을 수행한다. 이러한 결과로 사용자의 요구사항을 최대한 반영하여 연구비 관리정책의 수립에 필요한 다양한 형태의 의사결정 지원정보를 제공할 수 있도록 하였다. 최종 사용자에게는 원하는 분석정보를 신속하게 접근하여 단편적인 관점보다는 종합적인 관점에서 다양한 분석자료를 제공받을 수 있도록 하였다. 또한, 3개의 시스템을 하나로 통합한 결과 데이터의 공유, 시스템 통합, 운영비용 절감, 의사결정 지원환경을 단순화시키는 효과를 제공하였다.

취미 도야의 방식과 이를 통한 인성의 교화 및 문화발전의 가능성: 칸트의 『판단력비판』 §§32-33 부정적 취미판단의사례 분석을 중심으로 (The Method of the Cultivation of Taste and the Possibility of the Edification of Personality & the Cultural Development Through It: The Approach to Analyzing the Examples of the Judgment of Negative Taste in Kant's Critique of Judgment(§§32-33))

  • 본 논문은 취미의 자발적인 도야가 어떻게 가능하고, 도야된 취미를 갖는 것이 왜 성품의 교화와 문화 발전을 위해 필요한지 그 이유를 밝힌다. 이는 취미가 자신의 판정을 항상 '쾌'로 반성하는 것과 관련이 있다. 취미는 자신의 판정의 타당성을 검사할 때마다 보편타당한 근거를 발견하는데, 이러한 '발견의 기쁨'이 취미를 자발적으로 도야하게 만드는 것이다. 도덕적 성품을 갖기 위해서는 자신의 행위의 도덕성을 스스로 평가해 보는 훈련이 필요하고, 시대를 대표해 계승할 만한 작품을 선별하기 위해서는 높은 안목이 필요하다. 그러나 우리는 작품의 미를 평가하면서 이러한 자율적 사고를 즐겁게 습관화할 수 있다. 본론에서는 이 같은 사실을 칸트가 <연역>에서 제시한 세 가지 부정적 취미판단의 사례를 통해 규명하려고 한다. 칸트에 따르면 부정적 취미판단은 현재 아름다운 작품이 불쾌감을 준다는 뜻이지만, 이를 통해 주장하는 것은 취미가 도야되었다는 것이다. 필자는 세 가지 사례에서 드러난 취미의 반성 방식을 '버티기', '결함 지적하기', '스스로 번복하기'라는 도야방식으로 정식화한다.(2장) 그리고 이를 통해 이러한 취미의 도야 방식은 이성이 도덕적 관심을 갖도록 자극함으로써 인성의 교화에 영향을 줄 수 있다는 점에서(3장) 그리고 문화 계승의 산물을 취미가 직접 심사한다는 점에서 취미의 도야가 필요함을 역설한다.(4장) 본론 마지막 장에서는 이것이 어떻게 가능한지를 규명하기 위해, 취미의 반성방식을 좀 더 근원적으로 탐색해본다.(5장) 특별히 실러의 '유희충동' 개념을 빌려 그 이유를 밝히는데, 그의 설명은 취미의 발견의 기쁨이 주는 역동성을 이해하는데 도움을 주기 때문이다. 취미는 대립하는 마음의 활동에서 서로의 활동을 '추동'하는 근거를 발견하고, 이러한 자기 활동에 스스로 고무되는 특징이 있다. 말하자면 취미는 작품이 불만족스러운 상황에서도 유희충동을 '만들어내기' 때문에, 즐겁게 앞의 두 과제를 감당하도록 마음을 촉진하는 것이다. 결론에서는 그런 의미에서 취미에 의한 유희충동은 창작을 통해 극대화된다고 보고, 창작하는 예술가처럼 이를 직접 체험할 수 있어야 함을 밝힌다.(6장)

  • 기후위기가 심각해지는 현 시점에 서식처 보호 및 복원과 생물다양성 보전 등 도시공원의 생태적 기능의 중요성이 증가하고 있다. 생태공원은 「도시공원 및 녹지 등에 관한 법률」과 「자연공원법」이 정한 공원의 유형에 해당하지 않아 전국적으로 조성되는 수많은 생태공원의 법적 근거 역시 다양하고 관리주체도 상이하여 체계적으로 지정·관리되지 못하고 있는 현실이다. 도시공원 패러다임의 생태적 전환과 국토 생태계의 총체적, 통합적 관리를 위한 자연공원 체계의 개선을 위해 생태공원의 법적 지위를 명확히 하는 것은 중요하다. 이를 위해 관련 법령을 분석하여 문제점과 법제적 개선 방향을 도출하였다. 첫째, 국토교통부와 환경부 법률의 연계성이 떨어지고 이원화된 공원 체계 속에 생태공원의 법적 지위는 모호한 것으로 나타나, 공원 관련 법제의 개정을 통해 생태공원을 명확히 규정해야 한다. 둘째, 생태공원은 생태계의 보호와 복원, 생물다양성의 보전과 증진, 자연관찰과 생태학습 및 여가활동의 균형을 도모하며 생태적 방법으로 조성·관리되는 지속가능한 공원으로 정의할 수 있으며 지속적인 논의를 통해 다듬어가야 할 것이다. 셋째, 공원 관련 행정 협력 체계에서 국가와 지방자치단체의 역할을 체계화하고 거버넌스 구축을 통해 새로운 공원조성·관리 모형을 수립해야한다. 넷째, 생태공원 서식처의 특성은 개별법의 영향을 받으므로 시설 중복결정의 가능성을 열어둘 필요가 있다. 다섯째, 생태공원의 목표, 원칙, 시설물의 조성 기준을 갖추도록 세부 지침과 표준 조례가 필요하다. 여섯째, 법률의 개정과 더불어 지자체의 조례 역시 구체화되어야 한다. 이 연구는 생태공원을 제도적으로 명확히 규정해야 한다는 문제의식을 기반으로 현재 생태공원과 관련된 다양한 법적 현실을 추적한 문헌 연구이다. 다양한 이해관계자들의 의견을 실증적으로 반영하지 못한 한계를 가지나, 이러한 법적 고찰은 생태공원 조성 기반을 체계화하여 도시의 생태계를 보전하며 시민들에게 자연체험과 학습의 기회를 제공할 수 있는 정책 방향을 제시하는데 기여할 수 있다.

  • The competence of newly graduated nurses is based on various clinical expriences gained when they were students. Therefore, instructors of nursing students, professors in nursing schools or directors in hospitals must play a critical role in assisting them to obtain various knowledge and experienced nursing skills. The purpose of this study was to investigate nursing care activities and nursing care hours practiced by nursing students in a general hospital. The subject students were total 214 nursing students, 2nd graders(sophomores) and 3rd graders(juniors) from 5 Junior Nursing Colleges in Seoul and they practiced at S general hospital to gain clinical experience. The data were collected for 4 days. The tools for this study were the direct nursing care activity list consisted of 15 nursing areas and the indirect nursing care activity list consisted of 9 nursing areas. The subject students were supposed to record their own score. The results of this study are ; 1. The nursing care hours per nursing student 1) The average total nursing care hours a day per each nursing student are 362.65 mins(6.04hr), the direct nursing care hours per each nursing stuent are 202.09 mins(direct nursing care rate 56.0%) and it is higher than the indirect nursing care hours, 159.75mins(indirect nursing care rate 44.0%). The direct nursing care rate of each student by a team approach in the evening shift(56.3%) is higher than that in the day shift(55.8%). 2) The hours of checking vital signs are the longest(47.35mins) among the direct nursing care activites and next is in order of counseling 8l emotional support, nurse rounds, and accompaning a patient during examination. The hours of reporting are the longest(32.39mins) among the indirect nursing care activites, and next is the activities related to education such as reviewing chart, looking up references, etc. 3) The freqency of checking vital signs practiced by nursing student is the highest(the average of 55.7 times) among the direct nursing care activities and next is in order of nurse rounds, assistance of feeding, and counseling & emotional support. The required time for nursing students to accompany their patient during examination is the longest(20.7mins) and next are in order of restriction on patient' activity, orientated by a head nurse, skin care, sitz bath, bathing & hair shampoo, and assisting with patients' exercise. 2. The nursing care hours per grader 1) The average hours of total nursing care per a nursing student are 369.2mins(6.2hrs) to 2nd graders, 355.9mins(5.9 hrs) to third graders. The direct nursing care rate per each nursing student to 3rd graders(59.3%) was higher than that to End graders(52.8%). 2) For 2nd graders, the highly marked nursing activities are teaching associated with direct nursing care activities such as drawing up papers, looking up references, reviewing charts, and being orientated by staff nurses. For 3rd graders, measurments, observations, and nurse rounds in indirect nursing care activities are taken highly 3) The most frequent practice of the nursing care activites is checking vital signs : 65 times to 3rd graders and 46.5 times to 2nd graders. Our suggestions based on the results of this study are : 1. It is recommanded to repeat the same designed study in a variety of clinical fields for further study. 2. It is recommanded to collect data not by self-record method but by observated method. 3. It is needed for nursing instructors in Nursing Schools and in hospitals to develop the guidelines and check-list of clinical practice courses.
