  • 유비쿼터스 기술의 발전과 함께 센서 네트워크는 다양한 분야에서 활용되고 있다. 그 중 특히 의료 분야는 중요한 응용 분야 중의 하나로 바디 센서 네트워크의 표준화 동향과 함께 관심이 집중되고 있다. 의료 센서 네트워크는 기존의 일반적인 환경의 센서 네트워크와는 다른 의료 환경만의 특징들을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 특징들을 반영하여 계층적인 의료 센서 네트워크 구조를 제안하였고, 계층적인 구조를 바탕으로 하여 센싱 데이터 전송 방식을 소개하였다. 즉, 효율적인 센싱 데이터 전송을 위해서는 환자들의 요구 사항과 건강 상태를 고려하여 각 센서 노드들에게 우선 순위(Priority)와 경계값(Threshold Value)을 주었다. 이를 통해 클러스터 헤드에서 응급 데이터를 우선적으로 빠르게 베이스스테이션으로 전송하도록 하였다. 또한 이와 같은 구조와 전송 방식을 바탕으로 센서 네트워크를 위해 Eschenauer와 Gligor가 제안한 키 메커니즘을 기반으로 하여 새로운 키 관리 기법을 제안하였다. 이는 각 클러스터 헤드들이 높은 우선 순위를 갖는 응급 노드들에 대해서 이웃 클러스터로 응급 노드와의 키를 미리 전송해주는 Key Provisioning 방법을 사용하여 응급 노드들에 대해서 키 설립을 준비하도록 하여 키 설립이 보다 빠르게 이루어지도록 하였다. 이를 통해 키 설립 지연으로 인한 데이터 전송의 기다림 없이 바로 응급 노드들의 데이터를 클러스터 헤드로 전송할 수 있도록 한다. 이와 같은 계층적인 구조에서의 데이터 전송 방식과 이를 바탕으로 제안한 키 관리 기법은 수식 및 QualNet 시뮬레이터를 사용한 시뮬레이션을 통하여 네트워크 트래픽 오버헤드와 에너지 소모량을 분석하였으며, TmoteSKY 센서보드를 사용해 구현함으로써 그 효율성을 증명하고 실제 응용환경에서의 실현가능성을 입증하였다.

  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate the patient perception of clinical nutrition service. The research was performed by using questionnaires and conducted from February 14 to March 15 at 42 hospitals (over 400 beds). 41.7% of patients experienced nutritional education and counseling. The mean score of the patients' perception on clinical nutritional service was 4.62/5.00 for "nutrition care is important for treatment of the disease", 4.49/5.00 for "diet therapy is necessary for treatment of the disease", 4.16/5.00 for "nutritional counseling call-centers are necessary", 4.13/5.00 for "nutritional consultation fee is required to apply insurance benefits", 4.12/5.00 for "one-to-one nutrition system is necessary", and 3.56/5.00 for "nutrition services I am willing to pay". The patients who had no past experience in nutritional education and counseling showed significantly higher scores for "nutrition care is important for treatment of the disease", "one-to-one nutritional care system is necessary", and "nutritional counseling call-centers are necessary" (P<0.05). The mean scores for the importance (4.26/5.00) and performance (3.88/5.00) of nutrition counseling service were significantly different (P<0.01). "Nutritional counseling is available whenever I want" had the highest gap score between performance and importance among nutrition counseling service items. The importance and performance grid showed that highly important items had high performance (doing great area) and less important items have low performance (low priority).

  • The psychiatric interview is not a random or arbitrary meeting between doctor and patient. It is a systematic attempt to understand the relationship of psychopathology to emotional conflicts in patient, and interviewing is an in rather than a science, a skill that can be acquired but probably not taught. The faculty of the Seoul National University Hospital, Department of Psychiatry, have been providing 12 sessions of seminar on Psychiatric Interview and Psychopathology every year for the first year residents for the past 15 years. The authors presented three cases materials with their understandings of psychopathology and psychodynamics, each of which the authors had performed live interviews for 50 minutes in front of the residents. Those are a young male with conversion disorder whose chief complaints was motor aphasia, a young college girl with paranoid schizophrenia whose chief complaints were persecutory and erotic delusions with auditory hallucination, and a climacteric female in delusional disorder who had a delusion of infidelity. The most frequent questions the residents raised after the presentations were on the significances of the first interview, danger of making the diagnoses with short interviews, and methodology of questionings and not-questionings. In reply the authors discussed the importance of understandings of psychopathology and psychodynamics, the flexibility of the techniques of interviewing, and priority-related matters in which the understanding of psychodynamics proceed to the diagnoses.

  • Purpose: To find out the priority of which procedure has had a better outcome both clinically and radiographically between the two groups, one is treated by primary repair and the other by modified Brostr$\ddot{o}$m's procedure, by comparing the postoperative ankle joint stability and the patient's degree of satisfaction. Material and methods: 16 cases were taken into consideration whose number of severed ligaments were at least two or more of the lateral collateral ligaments of the ankle, and also were confirmed intraoperatively. Among them, 8 cases were treated with primary repair and the other 8 cases were treated with primary repair and the other 8 cases by modified Brostr$\ddot{o}$m's procedure. Results: There was no distinguishable difference for the patient's degree of satisfaction between the two procedures above mentioned. In 3 cases treated with primary repair, functional instability was observed. In case of postoperative ankle joint stability, 7 of 8 cases treated by modified Brostr$\ddot{o}$m's procedure has revealed increased joint stability. And 3 of 8 cases which were treated by primary repair have showed postoperative residual instability. Conclusion: Actually, the severed ligament can not maintain its normal strength though several months has elapsed, and possible residual instability could be remained. Therefore, it can be expected that modified Brostr$\ddot{o}$m's procedure also would be a .good method in obtaining suitable ankle joint stability as well as subtalar joint stability because of its reinforcement using extensor retinaculum.

  • A considerable change of the Korean nursing system has been made during the last decade not only in its philosophy but also in its function and structure to meet political and scientific need of the modern society. The main purpose of this study is to develope the new concept of comprehensive nursing care, both its Philosophy and ethics, as the basic of modern clinical nursing theory and practice. Comprehensive nursing care is the concept of human centered nursing care, and it helps a man to meet the basic physical, psychological, environmental, socioeconomic and teaching needs. It also helps him to help himself to meet these needs. This concept starts from the individualized nursing care and its ultimate goal is to improve a man to have a better position in his own community so that he may able to have a meaningful life. To accomplish this goal, an individualized nursing care plan as a nursing diagnosis and problem solving method should be set up for different patients with similar diagnosis to meet their needs, because each patient has a different social background. from this viewpoint, nursing is a science as well as abstruse humanity. The performance of comprehensive nursing care is a goal and issue of modern clinical nursing care. If nursing is a science and a profession for man, it should have ethics which recognize the dignity of man and offers infinite service voluntarily, and should be able to show leadership in carrying out the nursing responsibility. This leadership finds a person's potential and encourages him to utilize it. Such concepts should develop into a nursing ideology and this ideology should become a priority in comprehensive nursing care. The following statements are the conclusion of this study. 1) Modern nursing has been developed from disease centered nursing care to comprehensive nursing care based on humanity. The primary principle of nursing was to assist in the treatment of disease, but it has been changed to the professional nursing system independently. 2) The concept of nursing is one of continuous or endless scope of dispersion. It proves that nursing is grasping the professional responsibility to be able to coordinate scientific principles Patient health problems are according to scientific principles rather than adhering to nursing technical discipline as a daily work. 3) In chapter I and Ⅱ, the philosophy and ideology of nursing have been discussed and the flow of concept of clinical nursing and the rate of progress which emerges from naturalizing performance of the concept of comprehensive nursing in clinical nursing studied. The discussion developed the theory that a nurse should be to embody nursing ideas and objectives by establishing definite conviction of professions and study. 4) In chapter lil, nursing planning based on nursing diagnosis as a method to attain ideal nursing care for humanity with a definite idea of establishing philosophy of nursing was presented. 5) From the result of survey on patient needs about treatment and nursing, it was observed that all patient had emotional stress from unknown factors. Therefore it was concluded that nurses should not only educate the patient but also give them the opportunity to communicate freely their needs and anxieties. Furthermore complaints and doubts of the patient should be carefully noted and must be considered to meet these needs. 6) Patient teaching is the most important part of comprehensive nursing care. In chapter, Ⅲ, the important of patient teaching was emphasized by demonstrating the effect of patient teaching for diabetic patient. 7) In Chapter Ⅳ, from the result of the study on nurses attitudes to comprehensive nursing care, it was pointed that the evolution of nursing education and the establishment of a complete concept and value of comprehensive nursing was necessary.

  • This research is an attempt to establish a basic material in discovering the subjective types of the dental coordinators occupational consciousness, utilizing the Q-Method Theory, which is capable of measuring the subjective nature of human being by scientific and systematic method. The characteristics of each type were analyzed so as to have the dental coordinator to possess the desirable understanding of the occupational view together for them to have self-confidence as a lifetime specialty occupation. Upon completion of the study, it was found that there are three types of subjective views pertaining to the occupational consciousness on the dental coordinator. The result on the analysis of the characteristics is as follows : Type 1 is the Taking Serious View on the Patient Service, which priority is placed on kindness and looking after any difficulties of the patient, namely, it is the type that puts the importance on the high level medical examination and treatment based on good service. Because of the kind service to the patient, those under this category considered their job satisfaction have been improved. It goes without saying that they were developing the services, which satisfy themselves, and it was confirmed that they thought that they should make things smooth for any development of problems that may arise between the patient and the dentist. Type 2 is the Taking Serious View on Career and Organizational Strength. This is a type that aims on the systematic nature of the internal job, namely, organizational strength itself viewed from the stand point thai either self-confident or work merit is proportional to experience. This type is to actively treat the problem and endeavor to solve the issue when dissatisfaction is held by the dental hospital system, which is either followed according to the work responsibility or by an organization having an appropriate system on remuneration, Type 3 is the Placing of Importance on the Overall Circumstances. This is the type that places importance on the overall now of the dental hospital, and it is the type, that most greatly recognizes the importance of the role of the dental coordinator. The dental coordinator should provide the sense of reliability to both the dentist and to the staff of the medical examination and treatment and should be able to adjust smoothly the overall now of the medical treatment. The dental coordinator is expected to be a medical service specialist, who is capable to solve the problems of the staff of the medical treatment intuitively and to adjust the relation between the employees. With the above result, it was found that although there was no mutual exclusiveness between the respective types, there are particular characteristics among each type. Therefore, this research has discovered and analyzed the subjective view types relative to the occupational consciousness of the dental coordinator for the proper understanding on the characteristics of each type to enable the dental sanitary students and the graduates of the Dental Sanitary Department, who are aspiring to become dental coordinator, as the basic guide material to be actively utilized.

  • 목적: 대만의 호스피스와 완화 의료는 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. Economist Intelligence Unit에서 평가한 2015년 죽음의 질 지수 등급에서 대만은 아시아 국가 중에서 1위, 세계에서 6위를 기록했다. 이 리뷰 기사에서 우리는 성공에 기여한 것으로 보이는 세 영역, 즉 법률 및 규정, 영적 치료, 연구 네트워크에 주목하였다. 마지막으로 대만 사람에게 적용을 위한 미래의 도전과 전망에 대해 논의하기로 한다. 방법: PubMed에서 "대만의 호스피스 완화의료" 검색어를 이용해 체계적인 검토를 수행하였다. 결과: 2000년에 "자연사법"의 통과로 아시아에서 환자의 자기결정권에 대한 획기적인 본보기가 만들어지고 확립되었다. 이는 의료진에게 연명치료중지(DNR, do not resuscitate)를 요청할 수 있고 삶의 마지막에 기타 무의미한 의료 행위를 거부할 수 있는 환자의 권리를 보장하며 더불어 정책적 관점에서 완화의료의 중요성을 반영하는 것이다. 2015년에 대만은 "환자의 자기결정권 특별법"이라는 선구적인 법률을 통과시켰다. 이 법은 환자가 그/그녀의 자기의지에 따라 의료 행위를 거부할 수 있다는 것을 규정한다. 대만 고유의 영적 치료는 2000년에 도입되었는데, 불교 수행을 죽음에 직면한 환자에 적용하기 이전의 임상실습뿐 아니라 강의들로 구성된 훈련 프로그램을 성공적으로 이수하기 위해서는 불교 사제가 필요하다. 일본-한국-대만 연구 네트워크는 죽음의 과정을 자세히 설명(EASED, Elucidate the Dying process)하기 위한 동아시아 공동의 비교 문화 집단 연구를 위해 설립되었다. 결론: 대만에서의 호스피스와 완화의료는 정부와 사회의 우선적 합의에 따라 꾸준하게 성장하고 있다.

  • 치료행위 등 의료적 침습행위가 이루어지는 경우 환자의 자기결정권이 보장될 수 있도록 설명에 의한 동의가 요구된다. 그런데 우리 의료 실무에서는 환자의 소위 '보호자'에게 의료행위에 대해 설명하고 동의를 받는 일이 매우 빈번하다. 보호자 개념은 의료법에서 여러 번 등장하지만, 정작 보호자의 자격이나 범위는 명확하게 규정하지 않으며, 병원에서 사용하는 수술동의서 등에서도 어느 범위의 사람을 보호자로 포섭할 것인지는 정의하고 있지 않다. 보호자가 문제된 사건들로부터, 환자의 법률상 배우자나 친족관계에 있는 사람을 의료기관이 보호자로 인정하고 있음은 짐작할 수 있으나, 설령 그렇다 하더라도 환자의 가족이 당연히 그를 위한 법정대리인이 되는 것은 아니다. 이 논문에서는, 환자의 소위 보호자가 환자의 의료행위 결정에 관여하는 경우, 환자에게 동의능력이 없는 경우와 있는 경우를 나누어 보호자에게 어떤 법적 지위를 부여할 수 있는지 검토하였다. 환자 스스로 동의능력이 없어 의료행위에 대해 동의 여부를 결정할 능력이 결여되어 있는 경우, 비교법적으로 다양한 해결책이 제시되고 있지만 크게 환자와 일정한 관계에 있는 사람을 법정 의료행위 대행결정권자로 규정하는 방법과 의료행위 대행결정권자를 규정하지 않고 의사가 의료행위 여부를 결정하되 환자의 가족이나 친구와 상담을 하거나 그에게 설명하는 방법이 있다. 본 글에서는 전자의 해법을 택하는 경우의 문제점을 논증하고, 후자의 접근에서는 주치의가 단독으로 결정함으로써 우려되는 권한 남용이나 경솔한 결정의 문제를 회피하기 위해 주치의 외의 다른 의사나 위원회의 동의를 얻는 해결책을 제시하였다. 더 나아가 환자가 스스로 의료행위에 대해 동의 여부를 결정할 능력이 있음에도 불구하고 환자의 가족에게 환자의 상태를 설명하는 일도 실무에서 자주 일어난다. 환자와 가족 모두에게 설명하고 그로부터 동의를 받는 경우는 환자의 가족이 심리적으로 약해진 환자의 이해능력을 보충해주고 그의 결정을 심리적으로 지지해주는 긍정적인 효과가 기대되지만, 반대로 가족 본인의 이익을 위해 환자에게 불리한 결정을 하도록 연약한 상태의 환자를 조종할 가능성도 배제할 수 없다. 후자의 위험을 최대한 억제하기 위해서는 환자의 가족과 환자가 분리된 상태에서 환자의 의료행위에 대한 동의 여부를 다시 한번 확인하는 방법을 생각해 볼 수 있다. 환자와 환자의 가족 사이의 공동의사결정에서, 환자의 자기결정권의 실질적 보장 문제는 법학계에서는 다소 생소한 주제이기는 하나, 우리 사회처럼 의료행위 동의여부 결정에 가족의 관여도가 높은 사회에서는 앞으로도 계속 고민해야 할 주제일 것이다.

  • 근접방사선치료는 일반적으로 외부방사선치료와 병행하여 수행되고 치료단계가 매우 복잡하며 이로 인해 방사선 사고가 발생될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이를 해결하기 위해 근접방사선치료에 사고유형과 영향 분석(Failure mode and effects analysis, FMEA) 방법을 적용하여 프로세스 맵을 구성하고 이를 기반으로 각 치료단계에 대한 위해도를 산출하였다. 프로세스 맵은 "외래 및 진료"와 "근접방사선 모의치료", "CT 모의 치료", "근접방사선치료계획", "방사선치료"로 총 5단계로 구성하였으며, 각 치료단계를 세분화하여 세부단계를 작성하였다. 위해도를 산출하기 위해 의사와 의학물리사, 선량설계사, 방사선사, 간호사가 참여하여 세부단계마다 발생빈도와 심각도, 불검출도를 평가하였다. 전반적으로 프로세스 맵은 각 치료단계마다 환자 신원 확인 절차가 우선적으로 수행되며, 이는 다른 환자로 오인하여 서로 다른 치료계획이 수립되어 방사선사고가 발생될 우려가 있다. 프로세스 맵을 기반으로 작성한 세부단계에 대해 위해도를 평가한 결과, 전반적으로 "외래 및 진료"와 "근접방사선치료계획" 과정이 높은 위해도로 평가되었다. 직종마다 평가한 위해도는 서로 다른 경향을 보였으며, 간호사는 방사선치료를 제외한 모든 과정이 55점 이상의 위해도를 보였으며, "근접방사선 모의치료" 과정이 88.8점으로 가장 높았다. 방사선치료를 수행하는 의료기관마다 치료단계가 다소 차이가 있으므로 해당 기관에 대한 프로세스 맵을 작성하고 위해도를 산출하여 중점관리 항목을 집중적으로 리스크 관리가 수행되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

  • This research anticipated on acknowledging the inpatients factors in choosing which hospital for the geriatric hospital and general hospital they would prefer to go to the analization of different factors in patients satisfaction, and the relation between satisfactory standards and the patients intentions on recommendation or re-visiting the hospital. The statistical data was based upon the 359 question and answer papers that were done by inpatients that were hospitalized in two geriatric hospitals and two general hospitals, and the methods used for analyzing were frequency, t-test, factor analysis, and hierarchical multiple regression. The results are as follows. 1. The factors on choosing hospitals between geriatric hospital and general hospitals were different. The priority for the geriatrics was kindness, and then considerate nursing, and the reliance of treatment. The patients of general hospitals looked first for reliance of treatment, reputation and history of the hospital, and the kindness of the staff. The kindness of the staff, good nursing, and easy procedures were the primary factors of choosing geriatric hospital. 2. The four primary factors in choosing which hospital patients would go to were the predominance of the facilities, kindness and convenience, the reliance and proximity of medical treatment, and recommendation. The patients in the geriatric hospital first looked for kindness and convenience, second the reliance and proximity of medical treatment, third predominance of facilities, and last recommendation. The general hospitals main priority was the reliance and proximity of medical care, second predominance of facilities, kindness and hospitality, and last recommendation. 3. The satisfaction rate was higher in the geriatric hospital compared to general hospitals, but the satisfactory of factors were very similar. Patients in the geriatric hospital were pleased with the hospital staffs kindness, quick nursing and the improvement of inconvenient matters, and clear diagnosis of the doctors. The general hospital patients were satisfied with the hospital staffs clear explanation and accurate diagnosis 4. The analysis in the satisfactory factors turned out to be the environment of the hospital, kindness of the staff, and convenience. Both the patients of the geriatric hospital and general hospitals were very pleased with the kindness of the hospital staff. Ranking second and third was convenience and service for the geriatric hospital, and environment of the hospital and convenience for the general hospital. 5. According to a rank of multiple recurrent analysis of the patients satisfaction and the intention of re-visiting in addition to intention of solicitation, in the case of a geriatric hospital, when the intention of re-visiting is the dependent variable, the first stage shows that the less insurance the patient has, the higher was the intention of re-visiting. In the second stage, the more satisfied the patient is of the staffs kindness, the higher was the intention of re-visiting. Further more, when the intention of solicitation is the dependent variable, the first stage shows that not all the independent variables were significant, but the second stage shows that the more satisfied the patient is of the staffs kindness and the hospital along with the medical treatment expenses, the higher was the intention of solicitation. 6. In the first stage of a rank of multiple recurrent analysis of the satisfaction of the general hospital and the intention of re-visiting, not all the variables were significant, but in the second stage, all the satisfaction by factors were significant. Moreover, when the intention of solicitation was the dependent variable, the first stage shows not all the variables were significant, but in the second stage, all the satisfaction by factors were significant. That is to say, in the case of a general hospital, the satisfaction of the hospital and the medical treatment expenses were high, and the more satisfied the patient is of the hospitals environment and the staffs kindness, the intention of re-visiting and the intention of solicitation was higher.
