In previously study, many researchers have showed the infection control level and the knowledge of dental hygienists about dental infection control. But, they not tried to research the reason why hygienists don't keep to the infection control regulation closely. Therefore, this study was intended to highlight the affect factor that the infection control regulation keep in all dental hospitals well. The respondents in this research were the dental hygienists who worked in Incheon or Gyeonggi areas between June 16 and July 5, 2008 and who attended a complementary training program conducted by the Seoul Branch of Korean Dental Hygienists Association in April 2008. A total of 191 questionnaires were distributed to them, and the collected data was analyzed using SPSS WIN 12.0. Cross-tabulation analysis($X^2$), which significance level was 0.05, was applied to the data in order to verify the statistical significance of the survey method. According to replied, the reason why they don't used gloves were an unconvinced (38.9%), don't use by dentist (29.6%) and much expensive (9.3%). The gloves supplied a hygienist were proper in most case, 94.8%, but short in hospital, 12.0%. In order to take a good infection control they needed to change the conscious of dentist (66.5%), and the will of dentist is most important to do good infection control (37.2%).

전세계적으로 2003년 말 HIV감염자는 3,780만 명에 달하며 그중 여성이 차지하는 비율은$45\%$로 1,700만 정도 되며 15세 미만의 감염자가 210만 명을 차지한다. 우리나라의 경우 2004년 6월까지 총 2,842명의 감염자가 있으며 그중 여성 감염자는 288명으로 $10\%$를 차지,$70\%$이상이 20세에서 39세 사이의 가임기 연령이다. 이성간의 성접촉이 주된 감염경로인 아프리카와 아시아 일부 국가를 보면 남녀의 성비가 1:1에 가까운 데 비하여 우리나라 감염자의 성별 분포는 그렇지 않은 게 특징이다. 하지만 감염경로를 고려해 본다면 우리나라에서도 여성 감염자가 앞으로 더욱 증가할 수 있으며, 이는 향후 수직감염에 의한 신생아 감염도 늘 수 있어 무엇보다도 이에 따른 올바른 교육과 적절한 치료가 중요하다고 할 수 있겠다.

This study analyzed the awareness and performance of physical therapists' infection control using IPA. The four areas were divided into handwashing, personal management, Treatment room environment management, and infection control education, and a survey was conducted on awareness and practice. General characteristics were analyzed for frequency, and recognition and performance were analyzed through paired t-test and Pearson's correlation. Handwashing was both high and infection, control education had high performance, but low awareness. The performance of Treatment room environment was high, but the awareness was low, and personal management was both low. Therefore, based on this study, there is a need for a strategy to improve the awareness of infection control education, a strategy to improve performance in the treatment room environment, and a strategy to improve both performance and awareness in Personal management.

This study aimed to provide the basic data for the development of a simulation training program for new infectious diseases by analyzing the knowledge and educational needs of 119 paramedics regarding COVID-19 infection control. Data was obtained through a structured questionnaire survey of 186 paramedics from November 15th to 30th 2020. The study showed that 98 of the 119 paramedic subjects (52.7%) had not been educated regarding COVID-19. The knowledge level was 18.21±1.98 out of 25 points, with environmental control securing the lowest correct answers. The highest need for education was in the areas of prevention of transmission and spread, and employee safety control. The total average for educational needs was 3.81±.28 (4 point scale) with the highest educational need in the area of prevention of the spread and dispersion of the disease and employee safety management. There was a statistically significant difference in the knowledge of the general characteristics according to gender (t=-1.999, p=.047) and the educational demand was related to career (t=-1.999, p=.047) and, education levels (t=2.336, p=.021). Accordingly, it is necessary to plan a new infectious disease simulation education program that addresses the low-scoring areas and items with high educational needs which include the propagation path and spread prevention, environmental management, and employee safety management as per the findings of this study.

HIV 양성 판정을 받은 이후 당사자가 감염 사실을 받아들이는 동안 심리적 갈등과 스트레스로 인해 정신적$\cdot$육체적으로 고통과 좌절의 시간을 갖게 된다. 이 과정에서 대부분이 감염인들이 도움을 받지 못하고 오랜 시간을 보낸 후에야 정상 궤도로 돌아온다. 일부 극단적인 경우에는 이를 극복하지 못하고 우울증에 빠져 자살로 이어지는 사례도 있다. 이러한 사례가 발생하지 않도록 하기 위해서는 보건소 담당자와 감염인 사이에 믿음과 신뢰가 있어야 하며 감염인을 위한 지속적인 교육이 이루어져야 하지만 현실은 그렇지 못한 실정이다.

This study aims to identify the awareness and performance level of hospital infection control in medical technicians working in small and medium-sized hospitals. The experiment was conducted in 235 medical technicians (medical laboratory technologist, radiological technologist, and physical therapist), and for statistical processing, SPSS Ver.23.0 was used to conduct mean and standard deviation, analysis of variance, and regression analysis. As a result, it was found that the major cause of improper infection control was lack of experts ($3.17{\pm}1.18$) and performance level was statistically significantly lower than awareness of infection control. "I took no measures after infection accident" was responded the highest at 40.0%(94 persons), and in "I reported to the head of department after disinfection, examination, and/or vaccination," the standardized regression coefficient ${\beta}$ was -0.265, p=0.025, which suggested that there was a significant negative (-) impact. Infection control level showed a significant positive correlation with training and infection control instructions. Therefore, it was found that medical technicians in small and medium-sized hospitals required high skilled manpower in infection control, training, infection control instructions, etc. Through this study, more effective infection control is considered to be possible.
