  • This study is a similar experimental study using parallax design before and after the non-equality control group conducted to investigate the effects of the Mental health guardian program for mentally disabled people on the awareness of rights, empowerment, and resilience of mentally disabled people. The mentally handicapped persons who participated in the mental health guardian program were significantly higher in the awareness of the rights of the handicapped compared to the mentally handicapped persons who did not participate. In terms of empowerment, there was no significant difference between the two groups. In terms of resilience, the experimental group significantly increased compared to the control group. Among the sub-areas of resilience, excluding spirituality, difficulty overcoming, self-competence, learning and self-financing, basic functions, overall life satisfaction, new potential, advocacy and fullness all significantly increased. It has been shown to be effective in increasing the resilience of the disabled. In this study, the reason why mental health guardian program is effective for awareness of rights and resilience is not a one-way education, but a participatory curriculum in which a person with mental disabilities who participated in the education finds and corrects the wrong news and creates a card news again. It seems to be because it did. As a result of this study, it seems that the mental health guardian program has contributed to enhancing the recognition of the rights of the mentally impaired and enhancing resilience.

  • Generally, arterial pulse waves are measured at the radial arterial of wrist or carotid arterial of neck using a sensor such as pressure sensor, piezoelectric sensor or optic sensor. But in this paper, arterial pulse wave is measured at the temple using PZT piezo sensor which is attached on the temple in form of a hair-band. Arterial Pulse waves are generally measured when a reagent is in a static state. But in this paper, we implemented the arterial pulse wave measurement system, as a previous stage of the arterial pulse wave measurement system for running at outdoors or on a running machine, that measures arterial pulse waves at the temple, which is the least moving part when running. Thorough the continuous study, if the motion artifact when running is possible to be removed, the system will be able to perform monitoring of running men's states and especially emergency signals such as serious pulse waves of an/old and feeble persons and handicapped persons.

  • To date, large print books have been published in Korea only for partially-sighted persons. However, as a recent explanation in the Reading Culture Promotion Act indicates, people who cannot use reading materials due to old age are now also considered to be reading-handicapped. This study is aimed at investigating the proper characteristics for the improvement of print publication for elderly people using data from a survey of 80 elderly persons. This study identified elderly people's preferences on the major characteristics of large format books such as font style, character size, line width, and page layout, derived from both quantitative and quantitative research methods.

  • If the architecture will made the focus of real user for convenience, it must be the real user, which is the multiple specified persons, more over, the most disadvantages side person will be considered that would be the convenient architecture for all. This principle of universal design has been started the latest 1950's, in USA, Sweden, Canada has considered to the disabled person in the concept of universal design, at 1960's. In case of our country, after 1988's handicapped Olympics, the induction of universal design is started to adapt in the era of architecture. Nowadays, in the group of study, their research, presentation increasing the example, which is carried out the enthusiasm of legislatiov. But we are much as far behind the senior nation, in regard to the lack of the vouluntary participating as the professional. This study is to analyze the principle, concept of Universal design from the department store, which is the convenient facilities, present the usable checklist in time of induction of Universal desigv.

  • This paper presents an economic analysis for the travel aids service system for visually handicapped persons through RFID (Radio Frequency Identification). This research estimates both cost and economic effect of the service. By using input-output analysis technique, three kinds of repercussion effects - domestic production, value added, and workers induced by the travel aids service - are also calculated. To evaluate the profitability of the service, we investigate the procedures through which the service has an effect on the interested parties and develop formulas describing the procedures. The benefit of the service have been generally obtained by measuring the willingness to pay (WTP). This paper, however, obtains the monetary value of benefit by estimating the parameters of the formulas, so that a close improvement of the service may be possible with the result of the economic analysis.

  • A new style keyboard which is user friendly and can be used efficiently in a small area is proposed in this paper. The most pre-existing keyboards were using the style of selecting a key among the arranged keys even the formats of key arrangement and the ways of using them were different. A new style of information input device called Dynamic Keyboard(DynaKey) is designed in this paper. Dynakey is a useful information input device which can be used efficiently for a mobile device with small display and for handicapped persons who has difficulties of selecting precise positions.

  • 연구배경: 장애인의 치과치료는 일반인의 치과치료와는 달리 많은 문제점들을 가지고 있다. 이러한 장애인 환자의 치과치료를 위하여 서울대학교 치과병원에서는 치과마취과를 중심으로 임상 각과가 협진하여 외래마취 기반 하에 1999년부터 장애인 진료실을 운영하고 있다. 이번 연구에서는 서울대학교 치과병원 장애인 진료실의 치료방법을 소개하고 그 동안 치료받은 장애인 환자들의 자료를 바탕으로 마취과적인 특징을 분석하였다. 방법: 2001년 1월부터 2002년 5월까지 치료받은 총 54명의 장애인 환자들의 치료기록지와 마취, 그리고 회복실 기록지를 검토하였다. 환자의 성별, 나이, 전신질환, 수술 전 시행된 검사, 치료에 참여한 협진과, 마취 유도제와 유지제, 총 마취시간과 회복실 체류시간, 그리고 회복실에서 관찰된 합병증을 조사하였다. 결과: 총 54명의 환자들을 대상으로 58건 치과치료가 시행되었다. 한 건의 의식진정 법을 제외하고는 모두 전신마취 하에서 치과치료가 시행되었다. 마취유도제는 thiopental sodium, 근이완제는 vecuronium과 succinylcholine가 가장 많이 사용되었으며 마취 유지를 위해서는 enflurane과 isoflurane의 흡입마취제를 이용하거나 TCI를 이용한 propofol 지속정주를 이용하였다. 총 마취지속시간은 $160.2{\pm}55.5$분이었으며 회복실에서의 체류시간은 $132.8{\pm}50.1$분, 그리고 완전한 회복을 확인하기 위해 병동에 단기 입원시킨 소아환자에서는 $58.7{\pm}16.8$분이었다. 회복실에서 심각한 합병증은 발생하지 않았다. 지속적인 감시를 위하여 4명의 환자가 입원을 권유받았으나 특별한 합병증 없이 다음 날 퇴원하였다. 결론: 서울대학교 치과병원 장애인 진료실은 외래마취에 대한 기존의 연구들보다 긴 마취시간과 회복실 체류시간을 보였다. 그러나 별다른 합병증 없이 일회 방문으로 장애인 환자들에게 필요한 치과치료를 모두 제공할 수 있었다.
