당뇨병환자들은 일반인보다 요로감염의 위험이 크다. 이러한 감염증으로 인한 스트레스로 고혈당이 유발되기도 한다. 따라서 혈당이 높아지면 감염증 치료에 악영향을 끼치므로 엄격한 혈당 조절이 필요할 것이다.

결핵은 잊혀져 가는 감염병이었으나, 최근 에이즈의 확산과 함께 결핵환자수의 증가로 다시 주목받고 있다. 에이즈환자에게 있어서 결핵은 가장 흔한 기회감염이다. 하지만 초기에 발견하면 치료성공률이 높은 질환이다.

Purpose: To secure the safety of firefighters who are dispatched to emergency activities for patients with suspected infectious diseases during an epidemic, and to identify the current status of suspected infectious disease patients by region based on the information collected at the site, and manage firefighting infectious diseases that can be controlled and supported I want to develop a system. Method: Develop a smartphone app that can classify suspected infectious disease patients to check whether an infectious disease is suspected, and develop a disposable NFC tag for patient identification to prevent infection from suspected infectious disease patients. Develop a management system that collects and analyzes data related to emergency patients with suspected infectious disease input from the field and provides them to relevant business personnel to evaluate whether the transport of emergency patients with suspected infectious disease is improved. Result: As a result of the experiment, it was possible to determine whether an infectious disease was suspected through the algorithm implemented in the smartphone app, and the retransfer rate was significantly reduced by transferring to an appropriate hospital. Conclusion: Through this study, the possibility of improving emergency medical services by applying ICT technology to emergency medical services was confirmed. It is expected that the safety of paramedics will be actively secured.

당뇨병환자들은 감염가능성이 일반인보다 높다. 또한 당뇨병환자에게서 감염이 있으면 혈당을 조절하기 어려워져 매우 위험하다. 피부감염증이나 족부감염증의 경우에는 그 발생빈도가 현저히 높아서 그 원인이나 증상, 예방법 등이 많이 알려져 있지만, 귀나 코, 그밖에 호흡기 등의 감염은 아직 그 정보가 부족하다. 국내 당뇨병환자가 점점 늘어나고 있는 상황에서 다양하게 나타나는 당뇨병 관련 증상들을 미연에 방지하고 올바르게 치료하기 위해 을지대학병원 감염내과 윤희정 교수와, 순천향대학병원 이비인후과 이병돈 교수의 도움말을 들어보았다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of simulation education using standardized patients on respiratory infectious disease knowledge and clinical performance of nursing students. A single-group before-and-after design for the nursing of infectious respiratory patients using standardized patients from March 2 to June 15, 2020, targeting 112 senior nursing students. Respiratory infectious disease education program 'knowledge of lung infectious diseases', 'hand washing', 'wearing a mask', 'encouraging patients and caregivers to wear masks', 'intravenous injection', '3-way injection', 'surgical aseptic technique', 'disinfecting medical devices' , 'contaminated linen management', 'infected person management manual', etc., and 10 educational tasks were performed, and consisted of lectures, technical training, simulation using standardized patients, and debriefing. After simulation education using standardized patients, students' knowledge and clinical performance skills on respiratory infectious diseases showed significant improvement, and it was expected that it could be used for various infection control practices.

This study was conducted to identify the factors influencing patient safety behavior and performance of infection control in nursing students. This study was a descriptive survey based on data collected from August 28, 2017, to September 22, 2017 from 174 third and fourth year nursing students at E university located in S city of Gyeonggi. The collected data were analyzed using the PASW 23.0 program to conduct an independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, post-hoc Scheffe's test, Pearson's correlation, and multiple regression. The average scores of patient safety behavior and performance of infection control were $4.00{\pm}0.55$ and $4.31{\pm}0.50$, respectively. Patient safety behavior and performance of infection control showed a strong positive correlation. Patient safety behavior was positively influenced by confidence levels of patient safety and awareness of the infection control, and the explanatory power of the model (R2)[ED highlight - should this be R2? If so, change throughout the paper.] was 55.1%. Predictors of the performance of infection control were patient safety knowledge, confidence levels regarding patient safety, and awareness of infection control, and the R2 was 68.1%. Common factors influencing patient safety behavior and infection control performance were patient safety confidence and development of effective clinical practicum education programs to increase confidence in patient safety and infection control.

동물 실험과 환자에서 M. fermentans 감염은 염증반응을 동반하거나 하지 않으며, 병변이 나타나지 않은 것에서부터 전격성 감염에 이르기까지 다양하다. 이와 같은 현상이 나타나는 것은 두 가지 기전 중에 어느 하나 일 것으로 Lo등과 Montagnier 등은 추정하고 있다. Mycoplasma 감염이 숙주의 면역기구의 주된 성분에 손상을 주거나, 이 병원체가 감염된 숙주의 면역감시기구를 피할 수 있는 특수한 생물학적 특성을 가지는 것이다. AIDS관련 mycoplasma 감염의 가능한 역할은 첫째 mycoplasma는 AIDS환자나 면역 기능부전인 사람에서 단순한 기회적감염이거나, 둘째 M. fermentans나 M. penetrans와 같은 mycoplasma의 감염은 HIV-1과 같은 virus의 병원성을 증강시켜주거나, 셋째 mycoplasma가 숙주의 면역성을 저하시키는 병원성일 가능성을 가지고 있다.

Purpose: This study was performed to compare the clinical characteristics of 2009 pandemic influenza A(H1N1) [A(H1N1) pdm09] and seasonal influenza A infection in the pediatric cancer patients. Methods: A retrospective review was performed in the pediatric cancer patients who had confirmed A(H1N1)pdm09 infection at Samsung Medical Center from August 2009 to February 2010. For the comparison, the medical records of pediatric cancer patients with seasonal influenza A from January 2000 to May 2009 were reviewed retrospectively. Results: Eighty-two A(H1N1)pdm09 infections were confirmed in the pediatric cancer patients. Ten patients (12.2%) developed complicated clinical course by lower respiratory infections or extrapulmonary infections; 4 pneumonia, 1 bronchitis, 1 pericarditis with pneumonia, 1 encephalitis with pneumonia, 2 meningitis and 1 pericarditis. Three patients received mechanical ventilator and ICU care. Three pediatric cancer patients (3.7%) died. The risk factors related to complicated A(H1N1)pdm09 infections were date of infection (44-45th week 2009) and nosocomial infection. When comparing with previous seasonal influenza A infections, more prompt and aggressive antiviral therapy was given in A(H1N1)pdm09 infections. Conclusion: The A(H1N1)pdm09 infections caused a various clinical manifestations including fatal cases in pediatric cancer patient during pandemic season. There was no significant difference in clinical course between influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 and seasonal influenza A infections except the antiviral treatment strategy.

Purpose: This descriptive study was to examine uncertainty and performance of infection control in the VRE patients' caregivers. Methods: The participants were 82 caregivers who involved with the VRE patients care in D tertiary hospital in D metropolitan city. Data were analyzed with number, percentage, t-test, and ANOVA using SPSS/Win 21.0. Results: The participants' uncertainty was 56.99 and performance of infection control was 35.09. Performance of infection control was significantly different by age (F=121.38, p<.001), education (F=102.77, p<.001), relationship with the patient (F=17.80, p<.001), hours of caring per day (t=3.14, p=.002), and type of family (t=-8.65, p<.001). There was a significant negative correlation between participants' uncertainty and performance of infection control (r=-.96, p<.001). Conclusion: The results of the study will be used to develop nursing intervention program and standard protocol for infection control for the VRE patients' caregivers.
