The purpose of this study was to develop a basic framework and criteria for evaluation of quality care provided to patients with the attributes of disease in the home care nursing field, and to provide measurement tools for home health care in the future. The study design was a developmental study for evaluation of hospital-based HCN(home care nursing) in Korea. The study process was as follows: a home care nursing study team of College of Nursing. Yonsei University reviewed the nursing records of 47 patients who were enrolled at Yonsei University Medical Center Home Care Center in March, 1995. Twenty-five patients were insured at that time, were selected from 47 patients receiving home care service for study feasibility with six disease groups; Caesarean Section (C/S), simple nephrectomy, Liver cirrhosis(LC), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD), Lung cancer or cerebrovascular accident(CVA). In this study, the following items were selected : First step : Preliminary study 1. Criteria and items were selected on the basis of related literature on each disease area. 2. Items were identified by home care nurses. 3. A physician in charge reviewed the criteria and content of selected items. 4. Items were revised through preliminary study offered to both HCN patients and discharged patients from the home care center. Second step : Pretest 1. To verify the content of the items, a pretest was conducted with 18 patients of which there were three patients in each of the six selected disease groups. Third step : Test of reliability and validity of tools 1. Using the collected data from 25 patients with either cis, Simple nephrectomy, LC, COPD, Lung cancer, or CVA. the final items were revised through a panel discussion among experts in medical care who were researchers, doctors, or nurses. 2. Reliability and validity of the completed tool were verified with both inpatients and HCN patients in each of field for researches. The study results are as follows: 1. Standard for discharge with HCN referral The referral standard for home care, which included criteria for discharge with HCN referral and criteria leaving the hospital were established. These were developed through content analysis from the results of an open-ended questionnaire to related doctors concerning characteristic for discharge with HCN referral for each of the disease groups. The final criteria was decided by discussion among the researchers. 2. Instrument for measurement of health statusPatient health status was measured pre and post home care by direct observation and interview with an open-ended questionnaire which consisted of 61 items based on Gorden's nursing diagnosis classification. These included seven items on health knowledge and health management, eight items on nutrition and metabolism, three items on elimination, five items on activity and exercise, seven items on perception and cognition, three items on sleep and rest, three items on self-perception, three items on role and interpersonal relations, five items on sexuality and reproduction, five items on coping and stress, four items on value and religion, three items on family. and three items on facilities and environment. 3. Instrument for measurement of self-care The instrument for self-care measurement was classified with scales according to the attributes of the disease. Each scale measured understanding level and practice level by a Yes or No scale. Understanding level was measured by interview but practice level was measured by both observation and interview. Items for self-care measurement included 14 for patients with a CVA, five for women who had a cis, ten for patients with lung cancer, 12 for patients with COPD, five for patients with a simple nephrectomy, and 11 for patients with LC. 4. Record for follow-up management This included (1) OPD visit sheet, (2) ER visit form, (3) complications problem form, (4) readmission sheet. and (5) visit note for others medical centers which included visit date, reason for visit, patient name, caregivers, sex, age, time and cost required for visit, and traffic expenses, that is, there were open-end items that investigated OPD visits, emergency room visits, the problem and solution of complications, readmissions and visits to other medical institution to measure health problems and expenditures during the follow up period. 5. Instrument to measure patients satisfaction The satisfaction measurement instrument by Reisseer(1975) was referred to for the development of a tool to measure patient home care satisfaction. The instrument was an open-ended questionnaire which consisted of 11 domains; treatment, nursing care, information, time consumption, accessibility, rapidity, treatment skill, service relevance, attitude, satisfaction factors, dissatisfaction factors, overall satisfaction about nursing care, and others. In conclusion, Five evaluation instruments were developed for home care nursing. These were (1)standard for discharge with HCN referral. (2)instrument for measurement of health status, (3)instrument for measurement of self-care. (4)record for follow-up management, and (5)instrument to measure patient satisfaction. Also, the five instruments can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the service to assure quality. Further research is needed to increase the reliability and validity of instrument through a community-based HCN evaluation.

This study was carried out to investigate the management and support system affecting to the occupational health nursing services(OHNS) provided in group occupational health agencies(GOHA). Questionnaire was developed and distributed to 82 nurses who were working in GOHA and who agreed to participate in the survey. The results were as follow: 1. OH nurses responded were mostly in the age of twenty to thirties(89%), married(73.7%), technical college graduates(88.9%), worked in hospital(85.4%) and participated more than 1 year in group occupational health services (96.3%). 2. Fifty eight point four percent of the OH nurses worked in number of workplace more than 30 to less than 60 in the OHNS form. The figure of workplaces undertaken by nurses was ranged greatly from 9 to more than 100. Number of employees who cared by nurses were mostly under 5,000 peoples in 93.3%. The types of industry was mostly manufacturing and located in the order of factory complex area, suburban, urban and others. 3. Most OH nurses(87.8%) were fully involved in the OHNS for the SSE. Their working days to visit SSE was 5 days per week(77.8%) and one day in the GOHA at 41.3%. 4. The OH documents using by nurses were found in more than 23 different types. However, they were largely summarized in the types of 'Workplace Health Management Card', 'Personal Health Counselling Card', 'Daily Health Management Report', 'Visiting List of Workplace' and 'Sick Employee List'. 5. The items of laboratory test provided by GOHA were mostly achieved in the purpose of basic health examination. They were used to be the blood pressure check(98.8%), blood sugar test (98.8%), urine sugar and protein(91.4%), SGOT and SGPT(85.3% each), cholesterol (82.9%), hepa vaccine immunization(82.9%), r-GPT(81.7%), hemoglobin(79.3%) and triglyceride(75.5%). 6. The OH nurses(92.7%) followed the work pattern to visit the GOHA before and after small-scale enterprises(SSE) visit by car driven by nurses in 74.3%. They were payed by GOHA for transportation fees in certain amounts. However, nurse is the main person(75.0%) who covers up in case of traffic accident. If the GOHA has no transportation regulation for the formal workplace visit, data showed that nurses had been responsible to take charge(31.7%). 7. The personnel manager who takes in charge for nursing services was 'nurse' in 61.7% and 41.2% worked as the final decision maker related to nursing work. The OH nurses' opinions about factors affecting to the management were classified in the four areas such as 'Nature(Quality) of health professional'. 'Content of OHNS', 'Delivery system of the GOHS', and 'Others'. The factors were indicated highly in 'Authority as health professional', 'Level of perception of director on the OH' and 'Physical work condition for OHNS'. The things that this study suggests in the recommendation would be summarized in such as the management and supporting system working for SSE in the OHNS is necessary to reform thoroughly. The reconsidered aspects might be in the matters of number of workplaces undertaken by nurses, development of effectively practical health documents, preparation for guideline of the laboratory test in the workpleces, establishment of convenient and encouraging support system and cooperation between other health professionals with respect and skill.

흉부외상 환자에서 늑골 또는 늑연골 골절을 진단하는데 있어 골스캔의 예민도와 특이도를 알아보기 위해 임상 소견 및 최종 진단명과 골스캔 소견을 비교 분석하였다. 대상 및 방법： 1998년 7월 1일부터 2001년 12월 31일까지 동국대 경주병원 흉부외과에서 치료받은 445 예에 대해 성별 연령별 분포, 외상의 원인, 병원 도착 시간, 최종 진단명에 따른 환자 분포, 흉통과 골스캔 소견과의 관계, 국소적 압통과 골스캔 소견과의 관계 및 골스캔의 예민도와 특이도 등을 조사하였다. 결과： 성별 연령별 분포에서는 남자가 61.6%, 여자가 38.4% 였으며, 20대에서 60대 까지 연령대별 차이는 없었고, 원인으로는 교통사고가 60.4%로 가장 많았으며, 사고 후 병원 도착시간은 76.6%가 6시간 이내에 도착하였고, 최종 진단으로는 늑골골절이 46.5%로 가장 많았다. 흉통이 지속된 기간과 골스캔 결과를 비교했을 때 흉통이 1주 이내 소실된 경우에는 grade I, II가 많은 반면 2주 이상 지속된 경우에는 grade III, IV인 경우가 많았으며, 국소적 압통의 지속 시간과 골스캔을 비교했을 때에도 비슷한 소견이었지만 흉통의 지속시간과의 관계보다는 좀더 밀접한 관계가 관찰되었고, 최종진단과 골스캔 소견을 비교했을 때 예민도가 99.4%, 특이도가 90.4%였다. 결론: 흉부손상 환자에서 환자가 지속적으로 통증을 호소하고 3주 이상 압통이 지속되면 골스캔을 시행해야 할 것으로 판단되었으며, 이 때 골스캔의 예민도는 99.4%, 특이도는 90.4%로 나타났으나 MRI 등의 다른 진단 방법의 결과와 비교하는 등의 좀 더 진취적인 연구가 있어야 할 것으로 본다.논란에도 불구하고 폐쇄성 혈관 질환 환자의 일부에서는 여러 고식적 수술이 이루어지는데, 적절한 환자의 선택과 수술 전후의 적절한 환자 교육, 추적 관찰이 이루어진다면 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.막은 판막과 관련된 합병증 및 사망률이 낮았다.고 Rastelli술식을 시행하였고, 7례에서 중복치환술(Senning+Rastelli)을 시행하였으며, 1례는 심실중격결손증을 폐쇄하고 REV형 술식을 시행하였다. 술후 추적 기간동안 우심실을 체순환으로 사용한 환 자들에서의 삼첨판막폐쇄부전은 술전 평균 1.3$\pm$1.4도에서 2.2$\pm$1.0도로 통계적으로 의미있게 증가하였다 (p<0.05). 그러나 중복치환술을 시행받은 환자들은 술후 삼첨판막의 폐쇄부전의 증가가 없었다. 술전 완전 방 실차단을 보인 환자는 2례(3.1%)있었으며 술후 새롭게 발생한 완전방실차단은 7례(10.8%)있었다. 술후 기타 장,단기 합병증으로는 폐동맥심실유출로도관(conduit) 재협착이 10례, 혈전증(판막: 2례, 인조혈관: 1례, 폐동 맥: 1례)이 4례, 2주 이상의 지속적 흉관배액이 4례, 유미흉이 3례, 출혈에 의한 재수술이 3례, 기타 급성 신 부전, 종격동염, 횡경막신경 마비가 각각 2례씩 있었으며, 중복치환술을 받은 환자들과 전통적 술식으로 수 술받은 환자에서 술후 합병증의 차이는 없었다. 65명의 환자를 평균 54$\pm$49개월(0~177개월)간 추적관찰하였 으며, 수술 초기에 사망한 환자는 13명으로 20.0%(13/65)의 수술사망율을 보였으며 3명의 환자가 추적기간중 사망하여 24.6%(16/65)
