  • 문제: 환자가 수술장 내에서 수술을 기다리면서 느끼는 불안감을 최소화할 수 있도록 해야 하지만 수술실의 효율성 및 의료진 편의성 위주로 운영되고 있어 수술실 내 대기시간이 연장되고 있다. 목적: 수술장 내 대기시간을 단축시키기 위해 수술환자의 이동경로에 따른 지연요인과 문제점을 파악하고 개선하여 환자가 수술을 기다리면서 느끼는 불안감을 최소화하고자 한다. 의료기관: 부산시에 소재한 481병상의 종합병원 수술실 질 향상 활동: 수술환자의 대기시간 지연요인과 문제점을 파악하고 개선을 통해 질 향상을 도모하였다. 개선효과: 대기시간 수행율에서 수술장 도착까지의 수행율이 개선전 95%에서 개선후98%로, 수술방 입실까지의 수행율이 개선전 88%에서 개선후 94%로, 마취시작까지의 수행율이 개선전 93%에서 개선후 96%로 수행율이 높아졌다.

  • The purpose of this study is to propose measures to increase evacuation safety by calculating the habitable time using a fire and evacuation simulation program for the Room-escape cafe currently in operation, and comparing and analyzing it with the evacuation required time. Assuming a fire due to overheating of electric heaters in use in front of the warehouse, the habitable time was calculated through fire simulation, and the occupant's evacuation time calculated through evacuation simulation according installation of safety facilities, etc. was compared and analyzed with the habitable time. In the case of escape room cafes with safety facilities installed, evacuation safety was satisfied, but in escape room cafes without safety facilities, the evacuation safety was not secure. As a result of analyzing evacuation safety for each scenario based on the ASET analyzed in the fire simulation, it was found that in scenario 1, evacuation safety was secured and everyone successfully evacuated, while in scenario 2, no one succeeded in evacuation. These results can be said to confirm that the installation of safety facilities is very important in business establishments such as escape room cafes, which become enclosed structures when games are started.

  • This is a report of 8 cases cardiac arrest developed in the operating room at Jeonbug university Hospital from January 1973 to October, 1975. Four patients of cardiac arrest developed during the elective operation, 3 during the emergency operation and the remaining one, bronchoscopy for foreign body removal under the general anesthesia. Immediate closed chest cardiac massage was performed in the 7 patients and the remaining one underwent open chest cardiac massage. Five of 7 patients with the closed chest cardiac massage regained consciousness and restored respiration, but 3 patients of these survived to be discharged. Two patients who underwent pneumonectomy for multiple lung abscess and open drainage for liver abscess, were resuscitated but did survived. The Latter died from bleeding due to rupture of the liver that developed during the closed chest cardiac massage. One patient who had open chest cardiac massage survived to be discharged without any sequele. Unsuccessful resuscitation was observed in two patients, one had a complication of malignant hyperthermia with muscle rigidity during gastrectomy for ulcer perforation and another had not firm support on the back during massage.

  • At this study, we are developing a possible control system through remote monitoring for fire protection in various chemical factory facilities. It's possible to do real time confirmation of a normal operation presence of the various equipment installed in a chemical factory through the internet network at a fire fighting head office, an area fire department and a chemical factory situation room using this remote monitoring control system. When occurring, abnormal operation is the remote monitoring control system, which can check this immediately and notify the situation room administrator. After it was tested using developed remote monitoring control system, the remote monitoring for which the internet network was used confirmed possible.

  • Most of vessels are not evaluated for their vibration and noise effects to human body. The vibration and noise generated by engine and auxiliary machine in vessel is a negative element for seamen. Therefore, in this paper, the diagnosis and evaluation of vibration and noise from vessel is accomplished by a shipbuilding corporation. The vibration and noise transferred from engine room and auxiliary machine was measured during the steady-state operation, and the vibration and noise map of vessel was made. Also, in order to evaluate the ship environment for human, the diagnosis is carried out on the base of measurement results.

  • Common carotid artery laceration is a life-threatening injury by causing hypovolemic shock. Nevertheless the initial management is very difficult until definitive surgery at operation room. Before neck exploration at operation room, arterial bleeding control by compressing the bleeding point is not always effective. We experienced one case with externally penetrating injuries in zone II neck, which was operated after clamping of common carotid artery in the emergency department. Here we report this case.

  • This paper presents transconductance (g$\_$m/( characteristics of GaAs MESFET's at high temperatures ranging from room temperature to 350$\^{C}$. GaAs MESFET of 0.3x750[㎛] gate dimension has been used to obtain the experimental data. Gate to source voltage(V$\_$GS/) has been controlled to obtain the temperature dependent characteristics for maximum transconductance g$\_$mmax/ of the device. Furthermore g$\_$mmax/ and expected g$\_$m/ have been traced with temperatures ranging from room temperature to 350$\^{C}$ also by compensating for C$\_$GS/ to maintain the optimum operation of the device. From the results, V$\_$GS/decreases as the operating temperature increases for optimum operation of the transconductance. Finally V$\_$GS/ has been optimized to trace g$\_$mmax/ and enhances the decreased g$\_$m/ with different temperatures.

  • Characteristics of two-dimensional slab photonic crystal lasers will be summarized. Room temperature c.w operation is demonstrated at 1.6 $\mu\textrm{m}$ by using InGaAsP slab-waveguide triangular photonic crystal on top of wet-oxidized aluminum oxide. Recently, 2-D PBG structures have attracted a great deal of attention due to their simplicity in fabrication and theoretical study as compared to the three-dimensional counterparts [1]. Air-guided 2-D slab PBG lasers were reported by Caltech group (2). However, this air-slab structure is mechanically fragile and thermally unforgiving. Therefore, a new structure that can remove this thermal limitation is dearly sought after for 2-D PBG laser to have practical meaning. In this talk, we report room-temperature continuous operation of 2-D photonic bandgap lasers that are thermally and mechanically stable.(omitted)

  • Talk-Back systems comprised of master-equipment at the control room and slave-equipment at turnouts refer to the intercommunication facilities that optimize mutual communication between maintenance staff on trackside and the control room to facilitate quickness and accuracy of train operation control and its maintenance within depot and on mainlines with turnouts for direction switching of the trains in operation. The weakness lies in additional maintenance costs of cables since the Talk-Back system installed on line 1 along with line 2-4 has a profound effect on the voice quality leading to the attenuation and crosstalk of the system due to the deterioration of cables and environmental factors. This paper discusses the Talk-Back system in a radio communication environment with the application of RF(Radio Frequency) communication system from the wire communication system by cables to ameliorate these problems, and deals with the energy saving environmentally friendly facilities in consideration of replacing power section at salve-equipment with solar batteries benefitting the system in light of energy consumption.

  • Room-temperature continuous operation of two-dimensional photonic crystal lasers is achieved at 1.6 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ by using InGaAsP slab-waveguide triangular photonic crystal on top of wet-oxidized aluminum oxide. The main difficulty in the realization of photonic bandgap (OBG) structures has been the nontrivial difficulties in nanofabrication, especially for 3-dimensional PBG structures. Recently, 2-D PBG structures have attracted a great deal of attention due to their simplicity in fabrication and theoretical study as compared to the three-dimensional counterparts [1]. Recently, air-gulfed 2-D slab PBG lasers were reported by Caltech group [2]. However, this air-slab structure is mechanically fragile and thermally unforgiving. Therefore, a new structure that can remove this thermal limitation is dearly sought after for 2-D PBG laser to have practical meaning. In this talk, we report room-temperature continuous operation of 2-D photonic bandgap lasers that are thermally and mechanically stable.
