The purpose of this study is to identify the relation between functional limitation, functional disability and back pain during pregnancy. Data was collected by interview or self-report from 66 pregnant women between the gestational ages of 17 and 22 weeks who had experienced back pain from February 17 through July 28, 2001. The results of this study are as follows; 1. The prevalent mean week of back pain starting during pregnancy was 12.8. The mean pain intensity scores on the VAS during the past week and now were 5.6 and 3.7. The mean score on the functional limitations was 38.9. The mean score on the functional disability was 19.7. 2. The pain intensity on the past week was correlated with the pain intensity now (r=.339, p<0.01) and the functional limitations (r=.251, p<0.05). The pain intensity now was correlated with the functional limitations (r=.295, p<0.05) and the functional disability (r=.429, p<0.01). The functional limitations was correlated with the functional disability (r=.229, p<0.01). The higher pain intensity was the more functional limitation and functional disability occurred. 3. There was a statistically significant correlation between the pain intensity now and the type of housing (t=-2.051, p=.045), and back pain history before pregnancy (t=-2.429 p=.003). 4. There was a statistically significant correlation between the functional limitation and income (F=2.803, p=.047) and back pain history before pregnancy (t=-3.225, p=.002). There was a statistically significant correlation between the functional disability and back pain history before pregnancy (t=-3.058 p=.003). In conclusion, we found that a history of back pain was an important factor when predicting back pain and functional disability and limitation during pregnancy. The nurse and the prenatal educator should detect risk factors of back pain early in pregnancy and manage continuously though pregnancy.

본 연구는 개인에 대한 직업재활서비스의 적격성이 장애 등급만으로 결정될 수 있는지를 탐색하기 위해 수행되었다. 이론적 검토를 통해 '기능제한(functional limitation)'개념이 이에 대한 대안이 될 수 있음을 확인하였고 변형바델지수(Modified Barthel Index)를 이용하여 기능제한 정도를 측정하였다. 전체 381명의 뇌성마비인을 대상으로 신체적 손상(impairment)과 기능제한 그리고 취업여부의 관계를 파악한 결과, 뇌성마비유형과 부위 등 신체적 손상과 관련된 변인은 취업여부에 직 간접적 영향을 미치지 않았으나 통증문제와 이동능력은 간접적인 경로를 통해, 자기관리능력은 직접적인 경로를 통해 취업여부에 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 연구결과를 통해 향후 각종 장애관련 연구나 서비스 전달체계의 적격성을 파악하는 과정에서 무엇을 '장애'로 규정할 것인지에 대해 고민해야 하며, 그 대안으로 신체적 '기능제한' 정도를 개념화 하는 것에 대한 추가적인 연구가 수행되어야 함을 알 수 있었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify predictors of quality of life in burn patients. The predictors of quality of life were the subject's characteristics(marriage, income, burn size, burn site, pain and functional limitation) and personal resources(self esteem and social support). Method: 96 burn subjects who were hospitalized participated in the study. The data analysed was with descriptive analysis, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression. Result: Burn patients who had a spouse and had higher levels of income, with smaller size of burn, no arm burn, with lower levels of pain and functional limitation, plus higher levels of self esteem and social support reported higher levels of quality of life(R2=0.5229). Conclusion: Based on the finding of this study, development of nursing intervention programs including reduction of pain and functional limitation, enhancing self esteem and social support can be suggested.

Interior space of modern society has a request for non-functional considerations as well as a need for function. French sociologist Jean Baudrillard defined this phenomenon as a dialectical relationship between the functional system and the non-functional system in his book "The System of Objects". The main goal of interior design is the pursuit of non-functional aspects which can satisfy emotional needs of human being without ignoring functional side. This means that designer should exceed the limitation of the functional system and overcome it by his own idea and method. Under this recognition, this paper tried to understand how Shiro Kuramata and Takashi Sugimoto accomplished the overcoming successfully. Sugimoto breaks through mechanical monotony introducing the non-functional objects into the functional system. His objects have power and form of the nature. They also shows traces of manufacture and labor. They works as media transferring old life and values. Sugimoto sometimes adopts the non-functional system such as collection, so it reveals time of collecting and arrangement of various objects. In contrast to Sugimoto, Kuramata erased the form of functional object and turned over the everydayness of the functional system. Instead, aesthetical phenomena substitutes form. Having doubts about the geometrical order of functional system, he opened a discourse for its meaning and limitation. However they have something in common which works as a blueprint for establishing subject's discourse. This discourse is comprised of their own memories of scenes. These subjects' discourse institute worlds through their design works based on each methodology. From the Heideggerian point of view, the worlds offer a foundation which allows the establishment of art in interior design.

Objectives: As the increasing of the length of the lifespan, more recent policy interest are concerned with how many years of life are lived without functional disability or activity limitation. We investigated the relationship between deprivation and activity limitation at the 251 local authority level. Methods: The data were derived from the 2010 Census 10% sample data. Crude and age-standardized activity limitation rates by gender at the ages of 50 or over and deprivation index were calculated. Mapping and multiple linear regression analysis were applied to explore relationship between area activity limitation and area deprivation. Results: There were considerable differences in activity limitation rate across the 251 local authorities. Age-standardized activity limitation rate in both male and female were strongly associated with the level of area deprivation. Especially, low social class, male unemployment, or non-apartment residents at the local level were strong positive association with local authorities' age-standardized activity limitation. Conclusion: More policy attention is needed for tackling regional inequality in activity limitation among older adults.

The purpose of this paper is to research the factors and the effects of immediacy in mathematics teaching and learning and mathematical problem solving. The factors of immediacy are visualization, functional fixedness and representatives. In special, students can apprehend immediately the clues and solution using the visual representation because of its properties of finiteness and concreteness. But the errors sometimes originate from visual representation which come from limitation of the visual representation. It suggests that students have to know conceptual meaning of the visual representation when they use the visual representation. And this phenomenon is the same in functional fixedness and representatives which are the factors of immediacy The methods which overcome the errors of immediacy is that problem solvers notice the limitation of the factors of immediacy and develop the meta-cognitive ability. And it means we have to emphasize the logic and the intuition in mathematical teaching and learning. Clearly, we can't solve all mathematical problems using only either the logic or the intuition.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate risk factors for chronic ADL, IADL disability. The study explored clinical and socio-demographic risk factors of functional status decline. Methods: Data from the Survey of Living Condition of Elderly 3-year panel study were analyzed. The study subjects were 5,928 community-dwelling people aged 65 years or older who were no disability in ADL and IADL at baseline. Predisposing factors, pathology, impairment, and functional limitations were regarded as risk factors. Logistic regression analysis was used. Results: During the 3-year study period, 3.9% participants developed chronic ADL disability, 9.4% participants were IADL disabled. After controlling for predisposing factor, the best predictors for ADL disability at 36 months were fall as a pathology factor, cognitive decline, disability judgement, lower limb functional limitation. Comorbidity, fall, cognitive decline, disability judgement, lower limb and upper limb functional limitation were risk factors for IADL disability. Conclusions: Health promotion program focusing elderly is essential to prevent ADL and IADL disability. Mobilizing physical activity should be included in health promotion program for elderly.

Purpose : Currently, ICF to describe the functions and disability in the world has been used as a universal language. ICF tools based on ICF, the rehabilitation management of clients have been developed to be efficient. This study was designed to describe clinical decision for functional goal of clients to used ICF tools. Methods : In the following the utilization of all developed ICF tools will be described within a case example of a 53-year-old women, suffering from cerebellum disorder. As problems in the subject's functional activities was difficulties in changes sitting postures, standing postures and maintaining standing postures. Activity limitation was determined change sitting, standing posture as a goal through discussion with the patient. Results : After setting the identified problems as the purpose of intervention through the assessment, we find out the outcomes using the ICF evaluation display. Consequently, with functional activities limitation that discovered from assessment(categorical profile, assessment sheet), sitting postures to standing postures and maintaining standing postures were improved. Conclusion : This study was showed ICF tools based on Rehab-cycle for the patient's functional goals clinical practice. The future study, the ICF in clinical practical tools for effective use will require more attempt.

Purpose：The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of ultrasound and myofascial release in patients who have opening mouth limitation and temporomandibular disorder. Methods：Twenty students were randomly assigned to a myofascial release group(n=10) or an ultrasound group(n=7). Each group was treated for 15 minutes per a every treatment session for four weeks. Cervial range of motion(CROM) was used to measure cervical R.O.M., and a mm(millimeter) graduated ruler was used to measure opening mouth limitation. Results：Results of the follows : 1. The neck extension of range of motion of both groups was significantly increased in length of time (p<.05). 2. The neck flexion of range of motion of both groups was significantly increased (p<.05). 3. The quantity of opening mouth of temporomandibular joint of both groups was significantly increased (p<.05). Conclusion：These data suggest that myofascial release and ultrasound are beneficial to increasing a functional recovery of neck(flexion and extension) and opening mouth.

In order to evaluate the outcome of conservative treatment for acute or chronic closed lock, 127 patients were subjected at the Dept. of Oral Medicine, PNUH, from 1991. All the symptoms were analyzed and the results according to treatment modalities were compared before and after treatment. 1. Closed lock patients were more often seen in women of twenty and thirty. 2. The most common reasons for treatment were functional pain, limitation of mouth opening, restricted laterotrusion to non-effected side, deflection on opening but, on the contrary, noise was the least. 3. Most of closed lock patients were curedin six months. 4. Conservative treatment including stabilization splint produced better results. 5. Functional pain and limitation of mouth opening were relieved and maximumm comfortable opening was expanded, but joint noise decreased in the chronic and increased in the acute.
