Objective: There is a growing interest in the safe use of medications in pregnant and breastfeeding women. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to find ways to improve education about safe medication use by investigating the status of medication use of pregnant and breastfeeding women, and by evaluating their knowledge, attitudes, and practices toward safe medication use. Methods: In this study, a self-report questionnaire was conducted on pregnant or breastfeeding women in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province. The questionnaire consisted of the following four sections; 1) sociodemographic characteristics of participants, 2) experience of medication use, 3) experience of being educated on safe medication use, and 4) knowledge, attitudes, and practices about medication use during pregnancy/breastfeeding. Results: A total of 203 participants were included in the analysis. Of these, 38.4% reported to take prescription medications during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Regarding education on safe medication use, nearly 90% of the participants answered that they were not educated or were unsure whether they had it. In the knowledge-attitude-practice evaluation on safe medication use, the knowledge level was the highest (mean, 4.45), followed by the attitude level (mean, 3.58) and the practice level (mean, 3.33). The preferred education method of the participants was online education using a computer or mobile phone application, etc. Conclusions: This study suggests that there is a need for systematic and effective education that can link knowledge of safe medication use with attitudes and practices in pregnant and breastfeeding women.

Background: The safe use of medication in children is important, as it can have significant implications for their health and wellbeing. Parents or caregivers play a crucial role in the medication administration process. Therefore, this study would evaluate the needs and current status (knowledge, attitude, and practice) of caregivers for children on the safe use of medication. Methods: We conducted questionnaires on 150 caregivers with children under nine years old and asked about their knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding the safe use of medication and their needs. Each question was conducted on a 5-point scale. Results: Of the 150 respondents, 128 were women, 75 were in their 30s, and 63 were in their 40s. Among them, 29 parents answered that they had been educated about the safe use of medicines, and 26 (84%) were satisfied with the education. Knowledge, attitude, and practice assessments on drug safety use (mean±SD) were found to be 3.83±0.44, 3.67±0.38, and 3.53±0.45, respectively. There were significant differences between the educated group and the uneducated group in knowledge and practice, not attitude. Conclusion:To provide appropriate education to caregivers of pediatric patients is necessary to ensure the safe and effective use of medication in children. Moreover, appropriate education can improve caregivers' understanding of medication use and lead to proper administration. Therefore, it is imperative to develop educational materials and strategies for medications that incorporate both specialized knowledge and practical applications for pediatric patients.

본 연구의 목적은 국내 중·고등학생의 의약품 사용 현황과 의약품 안전사용에 대한 지식(Knowledge)·태도(Attitude)·행동(Practice) 수준 및 교육 요구도를 분석하여, 청소년 대상 의약품 안전사용 교육의 질을 향상하기 위한 방안을 모색하는 것이다. 이를 위해 서울·경기 지역의 중학교와 고등학교에 재학 중인 200명의 학생을 대상으로 의약품 사용 현황, 의약품 안전사용 교육 수혜 경험과 교육에 대한 요구, 의약품 안전사용에 대한 지식·태도·행동을 묻는 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문조사 결과, 중·고등학생들의 최근 1년 이내 일반의약품 또는 전문의약품 복용 경험률은 각 92.0%와 57.5%로 높은 수준이었다. 중학교 입학 이후 의약품 안전사용 교육을 받은 경험이 있는 응답자는 34.0%였다. 의약품 안전사용에 대한 참여자의 지식·태도·행동 종합 평균점수는 3.79점으로 양호하였으나, 행동 영역의 평균점수가 지식, 태도 영역에 비해 낮았다. 또한 중학생과 고등학생 간, 그리고 의약품 안전사용 교육 수혜자와 비수혜자간에 지식·태도·행동 수준에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 연구결과를 토대로 의약품 안전사용 교육의 내용 확대와 차별화, 성과기반교육 방법으로의 전환, 의약품 안전사용 교육의 교과 정규화 등 보다 실증적인 의약품 안전사용 교육의 필요성과 추가 연구의 필요성을 제안하였다.

Medical lasers have been widely used for various diseases. Despite the notable benefits, lasers could cause several complications such as skin burn, eye injury, airway fire, and so on. These accidents may occur not only with patients, users of the laser, or laser handlers but also to people passing in front of the laser treatment room. Although there is a risk associated with the laser, most of them can be prevented through good training, use of proper protection equipment, and ensuring the safe operation of the laser at all times. Due to the increasing use of lasers and the growing interest in their use, medical institutions should particularly emphasize the safe use of lasers and introduce systems for laser safety.

Purpose: This study was conducted to develop an education program for safe drug use in the rural elderly and to measure the effect of the program. Method: This study utilized a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The subjects of this study consisted of 40 older persons who were more than 65 years old and lived in G and C moon, Y gun, Gyeongsang-bukdo and visited the public health subcenter. Twenty were assigned to the experimental group and 20 to the control group. The education was provided for one and a half hours, once a week for 3 weeks. Data was collected before, right after, and one month after the program. Result: The first hypothesis was supported(F=79.24, p=0.000) showing that the knowledge scores of the drug use of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group at post education and one month after education. The second hypothesis was supported(F=23.84, p=0.000) showing that the drug misuse and abuse prevention behavior scores in the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group at post education and one month after the education. Conclusion: This study suggests that the education for safe drug use is effective in promoting knowledge and behavior for safe drug use of the rural elderly.

초등학교 3~6학년 학생들을 대상으로 하여 스마트기기의 안전한 사용을 위한 방안을 모색하려 한다. 스마트기기에서 사용하고 있는 앱의 보안에 관한 이론적 배경을 조사하고, 초등학생의 스마트기기에 대한 일반적 현황과 사용에 대한 수준을 파악하기 위하여 지식, 태도, 실천 수준의 문항을 개발하였다. 개발된 설문을 통한 자료 조사에서 일반적 현황과 사용 수준간의 관계를 분석한 결과에서 학교교육에서 실시하고 있는 '스마트기기의 안전한 사용'에 대한 교육효과가 매우 미미함을 보이고 있으며, 스마트기기에 대한 지식과 실천은 폭넓게 인지되고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구를 통해 초등학생들에게 적합한 스마트기기의 안전한 사용을 위한 교육 방안이 제시되고 있으며, 초등학생들의 스마트기기 관련 보안 의식이 함양될 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose: This study investigated the knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of a safe environment, as well as self-reported and observed compliance with the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), among intensive care unit (ICU) nurses. Methods: This study was conducted in October 2021 with 55 nurses working in the medical and surgical ICUs of a general hospital in Seoul. A self-reported questionnaire and an observational tool for compliance with the use of PPE were used to collect data. Results: Except for masks, the observed compliance for all other PPE types was lower than the self-reported compliance. Male nurses showed significantly higher observed compliance than female nurses. Self-reported compliance with PPE use, including "when there is a possibility of contact with objects contaminated with blood or body fluids, mucous membranes, damaged skin, or contaminated skin" (r = .23, p = .015) and "when there is a possibility of contact with blood, body fluids, secretions, or exudates" (r = .27, p = .004) showed significant correlations with knowledge of PPE. In the results for self-reported compliance with PPE use, gown use had a significant correlation with knowledge (r = .24, p < .001) and perceptions of a safe environment (r = .15, p = .016) for PPE, and gloves showed significant correlations with attitudes (r = .14, p = .024) and perceptions of a safe environment (r = .18, p = .003). Conclusion: The observed compliance with PPE use tended to be lower than the self-reported compliance among ICU nurses. It is necessary to develop and apply an effective educational program that can enhance improve actual compliance with PPE use among intensive care unit nurses.

Ship owners now demand a new design approach for the rudder that considers detailed design information such as maneuverability and environmental loads etc. on a quantified basis. In this paper, we developed the concept of a safe operation capability chart for the design of a rudder area. The chart can be used as the basis of design considering the maneuverability and environmental loads. To confirm the applicability of the safe operation capability chart for use as the basis of design, four different rudders are assumed in this work. First, it is determined whether or not it is appropriate to design a rudder by applying a conventional design approach based on IMO maneuvering tests. The proposed concept is reviewed for use as the basis of the design by investigating the effect of rudder area on capability charts that are plotted according to the rudder under various environmental conditions.
