본 논문에서는 환자의 산소 민감도와 선호패턴을 고려하여 개인별 산소치료 프로파일을 지정하고, 여기에 따라 자동적으로 시간별 산소압을 조정하여 제공하는 3단 분리형 단격실 산소챔버를 설계한다. 고압산소치료는 대기압보다 높은 100% 산소를 환자에게 제공하는 방법으로 개인에 따라 기압차에 따른 귀의 통증을 호소하는 단점이 있었다. 제안 시스템은 임베디드 시스템을 기반으로 환자의 산소치료 선호패턴 및 치료기록을 DB화하여 환자 맞춤형 산소치료 프로파일을 작성하고, 환자의 이름만 입력하면 산소챔버가 자동적으로 작성된 프로파일 패턴에 따라 산소압을 자동적으로 조정함으로써 산소치료 효과를 극대화 할 수 있다. 향후 관리자의 스마트폰과 연동하여 작동하는 산소챔버용 원격관리 시스템으로 확장함으로써 관리의 용이성 및 산소치료의 안전성을 제고하고 부가가치를 극대화 할 수 있기를 기대한다.

Purpose: An accurate preoperative analysis of the patient is essential in orthognathic surgery in order to acquire superior results. In profile, the location of the chin's position may change according to the neck's inclination. This may ultimately affect the amount of surgical movement. During acquisition of cephalometric radiographs, or in supine position, there is a discrepancy in the neck's inclination. This means that there are also various discrepancies between the actual profile and the various preoperative profile images. In the clinical situation, the decision in performing genioplasty usually lies in the analysis of the patient's profile on the operating table at the final stages of orthognathic surgery. This study aims to analyze the different preoperative profile images and to compare their discrepancies. Methods: Fifty eight patients undergoing orthognathic surgery were chosen. These patients were divided into three groups according to angle's classification of malocclusion, as class I, II or III. The right profile of these patients in centric occlusion was taken in natural head position (NHP). This was set as the 'actual profile image.' Another right profile image was taken on the operating table after insertion of the nasotracheal intubation and with muscle relaxants in effect. This was also taken in centric occlusion. The angle (denoted 'A') between the soft tissue glabella-pognion and the true vertical plane was found in the above-mentioned profile images and in the cephalometric radiographs. The differences of these values were analyzed. Results: There were differences in Angle 'A' in all of the preoperative images. These values were however, not statistically significant. Conclusion: In order to gain an esthetic profile during orthognathic surgery, the NHP is shown to be the most reliable position. Images reproducing such head positions should be used in the treatment planning process.

Improved clinical performance was expected from the introduction of the low-profile model of the Ionescu-Shiley pericardial valve. The long-term clinical results were assessed on the consecutive 47 patients who underwent MVR + AVR with this valve between 1984 and 1988. Three patients died within 30 days of surgery[operative mortality, 6.4%], and 44 early survivors were followed up for a total of 203.8 patient-years [Mean + SD, 4.63 + 1.47 years]. One died during the follow-up with a linearized late mortality of 0.491%/patient~year[pt-yr]. None experienced thromboembolism. Bleeding and endocardiris were seen in each single patient with the incidences of complication of 0.491%/pt-yr respectively. The linearized rate of primary tissue failure [PTF] was 0.491%/pt-yr. The actuarial survival and rate of freedom from PTF were 97.6 _+ 2.4% and 92.6 +7.1% at 7 years of follow-up.These results are favorably comparable with the ones seen in the patients of MVR + AVR with the standard profile lonescu-Shiley valve in all respects except the higher mean age of the low-profile group. Although the clinical performance was compatible with other major reports, the durability of the valve remains to be proved with the prolonged follow-up.

Recommendation Systems is the top requirements for many people and researchers for the need required by them with the proper suggestion with their personal indeed, sorting and suggesting doctor to the patient. Most of the rating prediction in recommendation systems are based on patient's feedback with their information regarding their treatment. Patient's preferences will be based on the historical behaviour of similar patients. The similarity between the patients is generally measured by the patient's feedback with the information about the doctor with the treatment methods with their success rate. This paper presents a new method of predicting Top Ranked Doctor's in recommendation systems. The proposed Recommendation system starts by identifying the similar doctor based on the patients' health requirements and cluster them using K-Means Efficient Clustering. Our proposed K-Means Clustering with Content Based Doctor Recommendation for Cancer (KMC-CBD) helps users to find an optimal solution. The core component of KMC-CBD Recommended system suggests patients with top recommended doctors similar to the other patients who already treated with that doctor and supports the choice of the doctor and the hospital for the patient requirements and their health condition. The recommendation System first computes K-Means Clustering is an unsupervised learning among Doctors according to their profile and list the Doctors according to their Medical profile. Then the Content based doctor recommendation System generates a Top rated list of doctors for the given patient profile by exploiting health data shared by the crowd internet community. Patients can find the most similar patients, so that they can analyze how they are treated for the similar diseases, and they can send and receive suggestions to solve their health issues. In order to the improve Recommendation system efficiency, the patient can express their health information by a natural-language sentence. The Recommendation system analyze and identifies the most relevant medical area for that specific case and uses this information for the recommendation task. Provided by users as well as the recommended system to suggest the right doctors for a specific health problem. Our proposed system is implemented in Python with necessary functions and dataset.

The low profile Ionescu-Shiley pericardial xenograft valve had been initially introduced to have improved hemodynamic performance and expected superior durability, However, subsequent clinical reports and laboratory studies have repeatedly indicated early failure of the valve from mechanical reasons in valve design, A total and consecutive 169 patients underwent isolated MVR with the low profile Ionescu-Shiley valve at Seoul National University Hospital from November 1984 to October 1989 [Group ISLM]. Five patients [3.0%] died within 30 days of surgery, and early survivors were followed up for 734.9 patient-years [Mean$\pm$SD, 4.9$\pm$2.0 years], Late mortality rate was 0.136% /patient-year [pt-yr], Linearized incidences of major complications were: 0.953% embolism /pt-yr; 0.680% bleeding /pt-yr; 0.272% endocarditis /pt-yr; and 0, 408% primary tissue failure [PTF] /pt-yr, The actuarial survival was 99.4$\pm$0.6%, and probabilities of from thromboembolism and from PTF were 90.7$\pm$4.6% and 95.9$\pm$2.6% at 8 years, respectively These results were compared with the clinical data from the 291 patients of isolated MVR with the standard Ionescu-Shiley valve at the same hospital during the period between October 1978 and June 1983 [Group ISUM], Group ISUM included 11% of patients younger than 15 years of age, whereas Group ISLM did no patient of this age. The mean age at the time of surgery was significantly younger in Group ISUM than one in Group ISLM [P<0.001]. Differences were not statistically significant in operative mortality, mean follow-up period and linearized incidences of thromboembolism, bleeding and endocarditis, between two groups, However, the linearized rate of PTF was lower [P<0.001] and probabilities of freedom fro PTF higher [P<0.001] in Group ISLM at least up to postoperative 8 years. While the features of PTF of the standard valve was predominantly degeneration with calcification and stenosis, the ones of the low profile valve was cusp tear and incompetence. It remains, however, to be seen whether the low profile valve fails mostly from mechanical reason, and further follow-up will still be necessary to determine the differences in mode of PTF of two valves.

PET/CT에서 환자피폭 문제로 인해 저 선량의 중요성이 강조되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 사용되던 CT 데이터를 이용한 감쇠보정법인 CTAC와 새롭게 적용된 Q.AC를 환자실험과 팬텀 실험을 통해 저 선량으로 촬영 시 PET 영상에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보고자 한다. 실험장비는 GE사의 PET/CT Discovery 710 (GE Healthcare, USA)를 사용하였으며 팬텀실험으로 감쇠보정의 정량적 평가를 위한 NEMA IEC body phantom과 균일성 평가를 위한 Uniform NU2-94 phantom을 사용하였다. 각각의 팬텀 내부에 동위원소 18-F FDG를 70.78 MBq, 22.2 MBq 주입하고 CT조건은 저 선량조건으로 80 kVp, 10 mA로부터 일반선량 조건으로 140 kVp, 120 mA 조건까지 스캔 후 CTAC와 Q.AC 두 감쇠보정법을 적용하여 재구성하였다. PET 영상에서 일반선량 조건을 기준값으로 정하고 horizomtal profile과 vertical profile을 통해 정량평가를 시행하고 기준값과의 상대적 오차를 평가하였다. 또한 환자실험으로 정상체중 환자와 과체중 환자를 구분하여 저 선량과 일반선량으로 비교 촬영한 뒤 CTAC와 Q.AC로 재구성된 PET영상에서 주요장기별 SUV에 대한 상대적 오차와 신호 대 잡음비를 비교분석하였다. 팬텀실험 결과 저선량 조건에서 CTAC와 Q.AC로 각각 재구성한 PET 영상의 profile과 상대적 오차에서 CTAC보다 Q.AC가 기준값과의 오차가 적은 그래프를 얻었다. 환자실험의 경우 일반선량 조건에서는 정상체중 환자와 과체중 환자 모두 감쇠보정법에 따른 상대적 오차값의 변화가 적었으나 저 선량 조건에서는 정상체중 환자보다 과체중 환자에서 감쇠보정법의 변경에 의한 상대적 오차의 감소폭이 커짐으로 기준값과 차이가 감소하였다. 기존의 감쇠보정법인 CTAC는 80 kVp, 10 mA의 저선량 CT를 사용하는데 있어 PET 영상의 선속경화현상이 발생한다. 이로 인해 CTAC를 이용하여 재구성된 PET 데이터는 정량화하는데 문제가 될 수 있음을 확인했다. 반면에 새로운 알고리즘이 적용된 Q.AC는 과체중 환자의 경우 80 kVp, 10 mA 정도까지는 140 kVp, 120 mA 조건으로 촬영하여 재구성한 PET 데이터 결과와 차이가 적음을 확인할 수 있었다. Q.AC를 이용한 경우 기존보다 저 선량의 CT를 이용해 PET의 재구성에 이용할 수 있으므로 환자의 피폭을 줄이는 데 큰 역할을 할 것으로 기대한다.

Total auricular reconstruction with autogenous tissue remains one of the greatest technical challenges for reconstructive plastic surgeons because of the ear's complex morphology with delicately convoluted cartilages and very thin skin. In a successfully created ear, a natural three-dimensional illusion visualized from the patient's profile, frontal, and posterior views is crucial. Accordingly ear framework should have adequate lateral aspect as well as suitable frontal aspect even before being lifted to this purpose. For this goal, rib cartilage should be harvested from three-dimensionally adequate area. It is the most essential point in framework fabrication that the baseblock should have semi-cup curvature via multiple parallel cuts made on its medial surface. Between January 1999 and May 2003, we performed 29 cases of total ear reconstruction with autogenous rib cartilage graft using this scoring technique and obtained satisfactory results, which showed more natural appearance visualized from the patient's profile, frontal, and posterior views.
