Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of education and counselling-based cardiac rehabilitation program on cardiovascular risk, health behavior and quality of life in elderly with coronary artery disease. Methods: A quasi-experimental study used a non-equivalent control group pre-post test design. A five week education and counselling-based cardiac rehabilitation program for the elderly with coronary artery disease was developed and offered to the experimental group. Participants were drawn from hospital in Busan. Twenty two were selected for the experimental group while 22 were assigned to a control group. Cardiovascular risk, health behavior and quality of life were measured. Results: There was a statistically significant difference in the cardiovascular risk(U=118.5, p=.002), health behaviors(t=5.200, p=<.001) and quality of life(t=2.431, p=.001) between the experimental group and the control group. Conclusion: Education and counselling-based cardiac rehabilitation program can be not only an effective nursing intervention for old patients having coronary artery disease, but also the very basis of further research on aged people who have the same symptom.

This study was conducted to assess the impact of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) on health related quality of life (QoL) in the firefighter under the recent IT environment. The data were collected by face to face interview using a structured questionnaire in the 366 respondents. WMSDs symptoms were measured by a self-assessed questionnaire on symptom table of NIOSH and health-related QoL was measured by SF-36. The prevalence of WMSDs was 38.0% in upper limbs, 35.5% in the low back, 21.6% in lower limbs, and 59.3% in two or more parts of the body. Subjects with symptoms of WMSDs had significantly lower scores in 7 dimensions of QoL except 'emotional role limitation' than those without symptoms of WMSDs at the area of upper extremities (neck, shoulder, arm/wrist, and hand/wrist/fingers). On the other hand, subjects with symptoms of WMSDs had significantly lower scores on all QoL dimensions than those without symptoms of WMSDs at the area of lower back or lower extremities. These results suggest that WMSDs had a negative effect on QoL. Therefore, prevention of WMSDs should be considered intervention strategies for improvement of QoL, especially in firefighters.

각종 심장질환은 세계 사망원인의 1위를 차지하고 있다. 또한 선진국의 병으로만 생각했던 심장병이 여러가지 원인에 의해 이제는 개발도상국에서도 심각한 문제가 되었다. WHO는 이러한 추세에 따라 올해의 보건의 달 슬로건을 "튼튼한 심장, 건강의 상징(Hearetbeat-The Rhythm of Health)" 으로 정하고 "심장병 예방"에 대한 계몽에 나서고 있다. 본 글은, 심장질환 예방을 위한 프로그램등을 소개한 WHO의 자료를 번역한 것으로 약 4회에 걸쳐 게재된다.(편집자 주)

노인인구가 증가하면서 노인 건강관리를 비롯한 여러가지 복지대책이 중요한 사회적 관심사로 대두되고 있다. 그중에서도 치매노인의 관리 문제는 노인 복지 측면에서, 반드시 해결해야 할 최대의 과제로 떠오르고 있다. 그러나 외국에 비해 양로원 시설도 충분히 갖추어지지 못한 우리의 실정에서 이 치매노인을 위한 복지는 사실상 전무한 상태다. 이러한 가운데서 지난 1월 우리나라 최초로 서울시 북부노인종합복지관(서울시 노원구 하계동 중계 9단지 내)에서 치매탁로소를 열어, 치매노인이 있는 가정에 새로운 희망을 던져주고 있다. 서울시 거주 치매노인이면 누구나 이용할 수 있는 치매탁로소의 개소 의의와 이용방법을 소개한다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors affecting the awareness of temporomandibular disorders in high school students and to provide basic data for the development of easy-to-access program to help the management of temporomandibular disorders. For data collection, convenience sampling was performed among academic high school students in Daejeon and North Jeolla Province to complete a self-administered questionnaire from December 1 to 30, 2019. The statistical analysis was conducted by t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Pearson correlation. Stepwise multiple regression analysis was conducted. Oral parafunctional habits were positively correlated with trait anxiety and both of them were positively correlated with the perceived symptoms of temporomandibular disorders. The most influential factors on the awareness symptoms of temporomandibular disorders in high school students were oral parafunctional habits, health habits, and trait anxiety. It is necessary to make positive communication and intervention, which meets high school age, in coping well with anxiety and managing oral parafunctional habits and apply an oral health promotion program that involves socio-psychological efforts to prevent them.
