본 논문에서는 국내 외 미량오염물질의 관리현황을 분석하고, 기후변화 등 수질관리에 영향을 주는 잠재적인 요소를 고려한 미량오염물질의 관리방향을 제시하고자 하였다. 국내에서는 먹는 물 안전성 확보를 위해 수돗물 정수 및 원수를 대상으로 미량오염물질에 대한 실태조사가 꾸준히 진행되었다. 근래에 들어 하천 호소수 중의 미량오염물질에 대해서도 조사가 진행되고 있으나 조사 항목과 횟수가 많지 않아 전체적인 미량오염물질 발생 및 검출 현황을 파악하기에는 어려움이 있었다. 선진국에서는 미량오염물질의 실태조사 외에도 환경 매체에서의 거동, 인체 및 생태위해성, 처리공정 등에 미량오염물질 관리 전반에 대한 연구가 수행되고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 향후 기후변화에 따른 기온과 수온의 상승, 수문학적인 순환의 변화 등으로 미량오염물질의 잔류 농도가 증가할 우려가 있다. 또한 물 재이용이 확대되는 과정에서 미량오염물질에 대한 우려가 커질 수 있다. 그러므로 먹는 물 또는 신체와 접촉하는 용도의 용수에 대해서는 사전예방의 관점에서 미량오염물질의 관리를 강화하는 것이 필요하다. 지표수 중의 미량오염물질에 대해서는, 물환경 정책목표 중의 하나인 생태 위해성 관리의 관점에서, 물질의 거동, 생태 위해성 평가, 하 폐수처리공정에서의 제어방안 등에 대한 연구가 확대되어야 할 것이다.

본 연구는 뇌졸중 환자의 입원 및 재원적절성에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악함으로써 효율적인 병상이용과 질적인 의료서비스를 제공하고 불필요한 병상 이용을 줄여 급성기 치료가 꼭 필요한 대상자들이 즉시 병원을 이용할 수 있도록 도움을 주고자 하였다. 연구대상자는 일개 종합병원의 신경과에서 퇴원한 뇌졸중 환자로 의료보장별 의료 적절성을 파악하기 위해 최근 약 4년 동안인 2006년 3월 l일부터 2010년 10월 31일까지 총 154명의 대상자를 선정하였다. 연구방법은 입원 및 재원적절성을 평가하기 위해 적절성 평가지침(AEP)을 이용하여 의무기록을 분석하였고, 수집된 자료는 SPSS 12.0을 이용하여 전산처리하였다. 이상의 결과를 근거로 입원적절성을 높이고 재원기간을 단축시킨다면 재원적절성도 높아질 것이라는 결론을 얻게 된다. 또한 재원기간이 재원적절성에 영향을 미치는 것으로 조사되었기에 재원기간이 길어질수록 병상 회전율을 감소시키는 요인으로 영향을 미치게 되므로 적절한 시기에 퇴원이 이루어질 수 있도록 의료기관 내에서의 질 향상 전담팀을 구성하여 각 질환군에 따른 재원기간에 대한 적절성 평가 및 관리가 이루어져야 한다. 궁극적으로 뇌졸중 환자의 급성치료가 끝나면 즉시 재활치료 및 장기요양관리가 이루어질 수 있도록 장기요양시설 확충과 같은 정부의 뒷받침으로 불필요한 재원기간을 줄여갈 수 있는 것이다.

Objectives : The most frequently cited health related slogan in North Korea is that socialistic medicine is preventive medicine. It implies that North Korea puts preventive medicine at the operational center of its national health care system. This study aimed at examining and comparing preventive medicine practices in North Korea with those of South Korea. Methods : Efforts have been made to obtain a textbook for analysis its contents. Many people have iassisted in the study by joining the interview. Some of these people are as follows : a former professor of PyongYang Medical School, NK physicians living in South Korea, WHO staffs, diplomatic officials, etc. The major items of analysis consisted of industrial medicine and hygiene, nutrition, school health, epidemiology, health statistics and heath policy & management. Results : Public health philosophy is finely noted and well integrated in the operation of the North Korean national health care system, particularly in the area of industrial medicine and hygiene. Preventive medicine with a strong health surveillance system spanning a number of broad social organizations is a major tool to improve the health of the people in North Korea. The emphasis on preventive medicine has a close relationship with the 'Juche Philosophy' and the shortage of pharmaceuticals and medical equipment. To cope with the shortage problem, North Korean health workers are encouraged to grow medicinal herbs. We have found that they put little effort into teaching newly emerging diseases, such as AIDS, VDT syndrome, hazards of EMF, and agricultural chemical poisonings. Of the subjects of the preventive medicine text, 78.9% coincide with those of South Korean industrial health manuals and 34.2% with South Korean epidemiology texts. However, an absolute difference was found to exist between the health policies and management systems. Conclusion : In North Korea, the concept of preventive medicine functions as the basic philosophic strategy of the national health care system. It differs greatly from the South Korean system in both practice and educational content. Its contribution to society is simply incomparable to that of South Korea. More communication and further study is called for in order to improve the preventive medicine practices in the future.

Purpose - Recently, domestic pharmaceutical market is growing steadily, but top-tier companies are concentrating on sales growth. In this market, SMEs, which account for more than 80% of the entire market, suffer from the problem of lower margins and increasing inventory costs. According to the government's policy changes related to pharmaceuticals, it is pointed out that the management of existing customers and the control of salespeople are important issues for pharmaceutical companies. This study investigates the effect of the control system on the salesperson in domestic pharmaceutical distribution channel on customer-oriented selling behaviors and sales performance. Research design, data, and methodology - To verify the proposed research model and test hypotheses, the authors selected 244 MR(medical representatives)'s responses which have currently relationship with doctors or pharmacists. This study carefully investigated the reliability, content validity, convergent validity, and discriminant validity of the proposed model. Results - The authors find out the following results: capacity control, activity control, and self control have positive effects on customer-oriented selling behaviors and customer-oriented selling behaviors have a positive effect on sales performance. In addition, we present alternative model to check the direct effect between the control systems and the sales performance, but control system factors except self control have no direct influence. Conclusions - First of all, competency control and activity control increases the customer-oriented selling behavior of the salesperson. This means that the salesperson's sales skill, negotiation skill, customer access skill, presentation ability, monitoring, direction and evaluation are important and it is also important to control activities to check the number of visits to customers, report preparation, and customer service etiquette. Second, the fact that self-control of salesperson affects the customer-oriented selling behavior suggests that self-control is not controlled by external factors but rather establishes short/long-term goals. Therefore, it is important for sales organization to create an environment in which members can induce persistent incentives for self-control. Finally, output control did not affect customer-oriented sales behavior, which is less likely to form confidence or motivation to MRs when output control is perceived as a means of monitoring, supervising, or controlling rather than providing information to salespeople.

Arriving in the '90s, the worldwide trend of longing for naturalism and popularity of complementary and alternative medicine in America has caused traditional Oriental Medicine and medicinal plants markets to develop rapidly. And China has been pursuing the globalization policy of Chinese medicine by the initiation of the society of traditional Chinese medicine. Under this situation, it is a time for us to think about in a serious manner whether existing organization and system of Oriental medicine and the department of Oriental medicine at the schools in Korea reflects reality or whether we should turn it to some different direction. The purpose of this research is to compare the educational systems in relation to the traditional medicine between Korea and China, and to seek and look into its implication, and also to make a contribution to further developments and changes of direction for Oriental medicine education in Korea. 1. I investigated carefully the educational system of the colleges of traditional Chinese medicine, and results from this survey revealed that the academic institutions for the medicinal training in China consists of varied systems, such as 7-year program for medicinal training linking with master degree course, 6-year program, 5-year program (more than 90%), 4-year program, and so on, so then China has been raising the specialists in their traditional medicine arena through those varied academic programs. Such an educational system as the department of Chinese medicine in order to educate and produce specialists or pharmacists specializing in traditional Chinese medicine is operated only by Beijing University of Chinese Medicine in terms of 7-year academic program for medicinal major that linked with master degree course, and the rest of schools run 5-year program or 4-year program (more than 90%). And other human resources required for cultivation of medicinal plants and manufacturing herbal medicines are mostly trained at 3-year course colleges or 2-year course vocational schools. 2. In connection with traditional Chinese medicine, there are a variety of departments in the schools in China other than Chinese Medicine and Pharmacology: i.e. Acupuncture, Moxibustion and Tuina, Preclinical Medicine, Pharmaceuticals, Materials of Medicine, Phrenology and Law, Languages and Literature, etc. Therefore, these programs constitute multi academic system and also an appropriate educational base that fits in varied needs of market. Particularly, the university having 7-year program emphasize, English proficiency so that it can be considered that this academic program is a specialized course in order to achieve globalization of Chinese medicine. 3. In Korea, there are only 11 Oriental medicine schools with 6-year program which have been established by the private foundations and 3 departments of Oriental medicine at 4-year university. Therefore, we need to establish varied departments related to branches of our traditional medicine like China. 4. It is necessary to establish varied new departments related to Oriental Medicine that will be able to take a professional role in the course of pursuing the strategic goals such as scientification, globalization, standardization of Oriental Medicine, also that will meet needs of the world alternative and complementary medicine and herbal medicine markets. In order to achieve such strategic goals, we need to organize an academic system that will be different from existing systems and programs, also we are required to research further on the educational and training programs.
