모바일 헬스케어는 다양한 스마트 디바이스를 활용한 개인건강관리 기술을 말한다. 특히 스마트폰 보급과 근거리 무선 통신 기술의 발전으로 모바일 헬스케어와 관련한 여러 디바이스와 서비스들이 개발되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 디바이스와 서비스들이 대부분 자체적인 규격에 의해 굿현 되고 있으며 이로인해 기기 간 호환이 안 되고 서비스가 종속되는 등의 문제가 있다. 특히 규제가 엄격한 의료 서비스와 거리를 둔 일상적 생활에서의 건강관리 기기나 서비스들은 그 문제가 더욱 심각하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 모바일 헬스케어 환경에서의 문제점 해결을 위한 표준 요소와 그 현황에 대해 살펴보고 관련 표준의 모바일 헬스케어 적용 모델을 제안 한다.

최근 우리 나라 국민들의 생활수준과 의료서비스 수준이 향상되면서 평균수명이 연장되고 건강에 대한 관심과 실천노력이 일반화되면서 국민의 전반적인 건강수준은 향상되고 있다. 따라서 오늘날의 건강문제는 감염성질환이나 열악한 위생상태로 인한 위험보다는 국민의 운동부족, 불균형한 영양섭취 등 생활양식 변화와 인구의 고령화에 따른 만성퇴행성질환의 증가로 사전예방의 중요성이 커지는 쪽으로 그 양상이 바뀌어 가고 있다.(중략)

Dying alone is an emerging social problem in South Korea. It is reported that most cases of dying alone showed various and chronic health problems. Despite of this situation, there existed neither medical support nor welfare services when dying. It indicated severe health inequality problems. With this background, the purpose of this study was to examine health inequality issue among dying alone cases by using news paper articles during the past three years(2016-2018). Content analysis was employed for 89 dying alone cases. Characteristics of dying alone cases, types of illness and health problems, and unmet medical services were analyzed. Based on the findings, future directions were addressed.

The purpose of this research is to target the health examination examinees to compare and analyze the common elements that influence prevention and preventive medical services and to analyze the share of the physical examination categories desired following the analysis by element. Likewise, this research was attempted to provide base data so that it is possible to reduce cost required for the prevention and treatment of each examination. This research targeted health examination examinees and conducted survey from April 1to May 31, 2010. The key findings after conducting analysis on 707 examinees are as follows. In case of men, those who are older and who live their spouses tended to be subjected to health examination, cancer examination and preventive injections. Those who had subscribed to the medical policy from the private sector, those with healthy state, those with higher educational level, tended to get health examination, cancer examination and preventive injections less. In case of women, those who are older, tended to get health examination and cancer examination more while those who had subscribed to the medical policy from the private sector and those with higher educational level tended to get health examination, cancer examination and preventive injections less. Those who are healthy and who live their spouse tended to get more cancerexamination and preventive injections.

Rapid Aging Society demands the transformation of medical paradigm of diagnosis and treatment towards prevention and management. This paper explores the norm and development of digital health care, focusing on Busan Metropolitan City. Digital health care which combines new ICT technology and medical technology is predictive, preventive, personalized and participatory; and suggests alternative to solve the problem of demographic changes and increasing social cost of medical welfare. Community Health Center in Busan is unique one based in the minimum community of collecting data from self-leading health management. Digital transformation using basic health data and social information can build preventive care system in the community. Easy access leads community center to test bed of developing new technology, as a living lab. In order to use the newly developed goods and service effectively, user-participatory test is nicessary. Finally community nurse and activists can specify health-welfare converged service through digital transformation empowerment training.

Objectives: It attempted to analyze influencing factors on the utilization of outpatient services which were adopted to predisposing, enabling, and need factors in Anderson model. Methods: The current study analyzed "2007 Korean National Health Nutrition Survey" data, which selected 3,335 people nationwide by proportional systematic sampling. This study analyzed data of persons who used outpatient services in two weeks. It adopted Anderson Model to control contextual factors including socioeconomic factors. The study compared means and fitted logistic regression models and multilevel model. Results: The logistic regression model showed that persons purchased private medical insurance were less likely to use outpatient services than the persons did not purchase private medical insurance. Persons with hypertension and diabetes mellitus, overweight, and problem drinkers were more likely to use outpatient services. Persons with high school graduates or higher in education level and experience of accidents or intoxications were more likely to use outpatient services according to the multilevel analysis of mixed model which treated region as random effect. Conclusion: Higher level of perceived stress increased the probability to use outpatient service than lower level of perceived stress. As number of days a person had exercised increased, the probability to use outpatient service decreased. Overweight and problem alcohol drinking increased the probability of outpatient service use. Further research should be conducted to find more factors influencing outpatient service use.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the utilization behavior of medical services according to the characteristics of socioeconomic status (SES) and prevalence by using the 6th National Health and Nutrition Survey data for adults over 25 years old. Frequency and technical statistical analysis, ANOVA, ${\chi}^2$-test, and regression analysis were performed using SPSS 23.0. The results were as follows: more female than male, 65 years old and over, high school graduate, and unemployed and income quintiles were similar. The SES score considering education level, function, and income quintiles was the highest at 7-8, and most of the respondents felt moderate about their subjective health condition. The mean number of prevalence was $1.07{\pm}1.497$, the mean utilization of outpatient services was $0.50{\pm}0.045$, and the mean number of inpatient services use was $0.12{\pm}0.454$. Depending on general characteristics, there was a significant difference between subjects with prevalence and subjective health conditions. Higher age was associated with lower education, skill level, income, and SES score, and average prevalence was associated with poor subjective health conditions. More serious prevalence was associated with greater utilization of inpatient services. More chronic prevalence was associated with utilization of outpatient services. In other words, higher SES score was associated with lower overall use of medical services. Lower SES score was associated with higher use of medical services. In conclusion, we must develop appropriate health education programs that can prevent diseases in groups with low socioeconomic characteristics. There is the need to construct and implement a community-based appropriate health service system so that proper medical services can be used.

한국 사회의 인구 고령화 속도는 세계 최고 수준으로 향후 보건, 의료, 복지 등에서 심각한 사회 문제를 발생시킬 것으로 예상되고, 고령화 사회로 인한 질병 발생률의 증가는 국민 의료비 부담의 증가로 이어져 이에 대한 대책이 필요하다. 이에 따라, 정보통신기술을 이용하여 시간과 공간에 구애받지 않고 언제 어디서나 건강과 생활을 관리하여 건강한 삶을 유지시키는 새로운 형태의 서비스인 유헬스케어(u-Healthcare)가 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 최근에는 일반인, 고령자, 만성질환자를 대상으로 하는 유헬스케어용 건강 개인 기기의 개발이 확산되고 있으나, 표준이 없이 업체별로 제품개발이 이루어지기 때문에 서비스간 호환성 등의 문제가 생기고, 이로 인해 유헬스케어 산업의 성장에 장애요소로 작용하고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해, 최근 헬스케어 분야의 표준화가 활발하게 진행되고 있으며, 표준화를 통해 생체정보 데이터의 취합 및 전송, 분석 및 피드백이 표준적인 방법으로 운용이 될 수 있도록 하고 개인 건강 기기들과 유헬스케어 서비스간의 상호 운용성이 보장이 될 수 있도록 할 수 있다. 본 고에서는 최근 헬스케어 분야에서 가장 활발하게 표준화가 진행중인 IEEE 11073 PHD 표준화 동향과 HL7 CDA의 표준화 동향에 대해서 상세히 살펴보고, 본 연구원에서 개발한 국제 표준기반 유헬스케어 플랫폼에 대한 소개를 한다.
