In this paper, ECG based cardiac disease diagnosis models are developed. Conventionally, ECG monitoring equipments can only measure and store ECG signals and they always require medical doctor's diagnosis actions which are not desirable for continuous ambulatory monitoring and diagnosis healthcare systems. In this paper, two kinds of neural based self cardiac disease diagnosis engines are developed and tested for four kinds of diseases, sinus bradycardia, sinus tachycardia, left bundle branch block and right bundle branch block. For diagnosis engines, error backpropagation neural network (BP) and probabilistic neural network (PNN) were applied. Five signal features including heart rate, QRS interval, PR interval, QT interval, and T wave types were selected for diagnosis characteristics. To show the validity of proposed diagnosis engine, MIT-BIH database were used to test. Test results showed that BP based diagnosis engine has 71% of diagnosis accuracy which is superior to accuracy of PNN based diagnosis engine. However, PNN based diagnosis engine showed superior diagnosis accuracy for complex-disease diagnoses than BP based diagnosis engine.

ECG limb lead II signal widely used to diagnosis heart diseases and it is essential to detect ECG events (onsets, offsets and peaks of the QRS complex P wave and T wave) and extract them from ECG signal for heart diseases diagnoses. However, it is very difficult to develop standardized feature extraction formulas since ECG signals are varying on patients and disease types. In this paper, simple feature extraction method from normal and abnormal types of ECG signals is proposed. As a signal features, heart rate, PR interval, QRS interval, QT interval, interval between S wave and baseline, and T wave types are extracted. To show the validity of proposed method, Right Bundle Branch Block (RBBB), Left Bundle Branch Block (LBBB), Sinus Bradycardia, and Sinus Tachycardia data from MIT-BIH arrhythmia database are used for feature extraction and the extraction results showed higher extraction capability compare to conventional formula based extraction method.

Clinical observations were performed on 17 cases of the traumatic sternal fracture, those were admitted and treated at the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery in Chosun University Hospital during the past 6 years 5months period from January 1983 to May 1989. Obtained results were as follows: 1. The frequency was about 4.8% of the nonpenetrating chest trauma. 2. The ratio of male to female was 16: 1 in male predominance and age distribution was from 24 to 62 years old. 3. The common cause were high decelerating injury [impact of the steering column] and falling down[more than 3 m in high]. 4. The most common fracture site was sternal body and next was sternomanubrial junction. 5. Associated intrathoracic organ injuries were cardiac contusion [6 cases], hemopneumothorax[1 Case], mediastinal bleeding[1 case], and thoracic cage and extrathoracic organ injuries were rib fracture, head injuries, thoracic spinal fracture, and long bone fracture. 6. Abnormal EGG findings were sinus bradycardia[1 case], bundle branch block [2 cases], and sinus tachycardia[3 cases]. 7. The operative reduction and fixation was necessary in only one case and the others were treated with conservative treatment.

심방세동은 심부정맥중 가장 흔한 질환이다. 이환율과 사망율에 있어서 심각한 문제를 일으킬 수 있으며 약물치료에 반응을 않하는 경우가 많다. 실험적 및 임상적 연구의 측면에서 볼 때, 거대회귀성 회로의 존재와 소회귀성 회로 혹은 심방의 자동성의 결핍을 근거로 심방세동에 대한 수술적 절제가 가능하다고 확신한다. maze III술식을 통해서 술후 동성 율동으로의 회복 빈도 증가, 장기적으로 볼 때 동방결절의 기능 향상, 인공심박동기의 사용 감소, 부정맥의 재발 감소, 심방의 전달 기능의 장기적 측면에서의 향상 등의 효과를 기대할 수 있다. 본원에서는 만성 심방세동을 가진 4명의 환자를 치험했다. 심방중격결손증 및 심방세동을 가진 환자에대해 Hioki술식을 시행했으며 술후 심전도상 정상 동방율동을 보였으나 술후 3년후에 접합부율동 및 서맥을 보였다. 승모판막질환 및 심방세동을 가진 나머지 3명의 환자에 대해서는 maze III술식을 시행했으며, 수술직후 2명의 환자에서는 규칙적인 동방율동을 보였으며, 1명의 환자에서는 심방세동을 보여서 amiodarone으로 조절하였다. 술후 3개월후 규칙적인 동방율동을 보이는 2명의 환자에 대해 심초음파를 실시한 결과 우심방의 수축은 양호하나 좌심방의 수축은 미미한 편이였다.

Honey is produced by bees from nectar collected from nearby flowers. Sometimes, honey produced from the Rhododendron species is contaminated by Grayanotoxin (GTX) in Nepal and other countries. There have been reports of GTX intoxication, also known as 'mad honey disease', from honey produced in countries other than Korea. The importation of wild honey has been prohibited by the Korean Food and Drug Administration since 2005, yet it is still distributed within Korea by the occasional tourist. We report a case of GTX intoxication from contaminated honey which included the symptoms of nausea, vomiting, general weakness, dizziness, blurred vision, hypotension and sinus bradycardia. By means of infusion with normal saline and atropine sulfate, the patient's condition fully recovered within 8 hours of hospital admission, and she was discharged without any complications.

Average age was 45.7 years old and age distribution was from 18 to 80 years old. The most common cause in the sternal fracture were high decelerating injury[ 38 cases . The most common fracture site was sternal body. Associated intrathoracic organ injuries were cardiac contusion[11cases , hemopneumothorax and pulmonary contusion.

Purpose: The aims of this study were to discuss treatment and prevention under the age of 18 to identify the characteristics of the electrical burn patients. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 97 patients with under age 18 of electric burn who were treated in emergency department of quarterly over 10,000 targets within the desired hospital for evaluation of electrical injuries between January 1, 2009 and December, 2013. We investigated age, gender, injury mechanism, season, degree of burn, surface of burn, complication, blood test, and voltage, kind of current. Results: Of the patients, 50 (50.5%) patients were in the first degree burn and 47 (49.5%) patients were in second degree burn. 68 (70.1%) patients had electric burn at home. 75 (85.2%) of 88 patients had normal sinus rhythm and other 13 people showed a RBBB, VPC, sinus bradycardia, sinus tachycardia. 41 (42.3) of 97 patients were in infants and 26 (26.8%) patients were in adolescence. Conclusion: The results of this study emphasize the need for prevention of electricity at home for childhood and education of the adolescence.

굴기능부전증후군은 매우 드물지만 신생아에서도 발생할 수 있으며 소아 환자의 경우 대부분 선천심장병이 있거나 심장수술 후에 발생한다. 그러나 이와 같은 심질환의 선행 요인이 없는 신생아에서도 발생할 수 있기 때문에 이에 대한 인지가 필요하다. 굴기능부전증후군은 대부분 특발성으로 발생하며 증상도 다양하고 24시간 심전도 검사상에서도 다양한 형태로 관찰된다. 본 증례에서는 초극소저체중출생아에서 선천심장병 없이 발생한 굴기능부전증후군에 대해 보고하였다. 환아는 심전도상 굴느린맥과 함께 심방세동이 동반된 느린맥과 빠른맥이 반복되어 관찰되었으며 무호흡, 산소포화도의 저하, 청색증의 징후를 나타냈다. 증상이 있는 굴기능부전증후군의 경우 대부분 심장박동조율기의 삽입이 필요하나 본 환아는 당시 체중 750 g으로 심장박동조율기의 삽입에 실패하여 약물 치료를 시작하였다. Isoproterenol과 atropine으로 치료하면서 환아의 체중이 1,500 g을 넘어서자 증상과 심전도상의 호전을 보였다. 향후 본 환아에서처럼 심장박동조율기의 삽입이 어려운 소아 환자의 경우에 대한 치료 체계에 대해 많은 연구가 필요하다.

A 12-year-old female Cocker Spaniel (7.5 kg of body weight) was presented for resection of a mammary gland tumor. During surgery, the heart rate was remarkably decreased due to a second-degree type I atrioventricular block. Atropine (0.05 mg/kg) was administered to increase the heart rate. Although the heart rate was elevated, atrial bigeminy occurred and persisted until the dog fully recovered from general anesthesia. These results highlight the possibility of atrial bigeminy caused by atropine administration during anesthesia.
