Purpose: This study was conducted to update nursing practice guidelines for intravenous infusion published in 2017. Methods: The guideline update process was carried out using 22 steps developed by NICE and SIGN. It was agreed to update domains related to central venous infusion therapy. Contents related to peripheral infusion would be updated later. Results: Updated guidelines for central venous infusion therapy consisted of 6 domains and 195 recommendations. The number of recommendations by domain was 11 for general instruction, 14 for central vascular access devices (CVAD) and add-on devices, 13 for nursing management before insertion of CVAD, 30 for management during insertion of CVAD, 51 for management after insertion of CVAD, and 76 for complications. A grade was 29 (14.9%), B grade was 87 (44.6%), and C grade was 79 (40.5%) in the strength of recommendations. A total of 37 (19.0%) recommendations were newly developed and 23 (12.3%) previous recommendations have been modified. The newly developed recommendations were mainly related to the infection control methods. Conclusion: The updated guideline is focused on safe maintenance of central venous infusion therapy. Through this guideline, it is hoped to minimize the occurrence of complications and improve the standardization and efficiency of nursing practice.

진료 및 간호서비스는 다른 제조업과는 달리 무형의 서비스에 대한 간접비의 비율이 두드러지는 특성을 지니며, 이러한 특성으로 인해 의료기관의 전략적 계획수립, 수익성 분석, 경제성 분석, 의료서비스 제공의 질 관리 등의 의사결정에 적극 활용되어야 하는 원가 분석에 어려움을 겪어왔다. 전문 간호 분야인 가정간호는 1회 방문 시에 다양한 활동들이 모여서 가정간호서비스가 수행되므로 가정간호의 원가분석에는 각 행위들이 모인 활동에 대한 분석에 근거한 정확한 원가 정보가 요구되고 있다. 활동기준원가의 기본 요소는 자원, 활동, 자원 동인, 활동 동인, 원가 대상이며 이에 따라 가정간호사업에서 활동기준원가의 각 요소를 정의하고 전통적 원가 계산이 아닌 활동을 중심으로 가정간호사업의 업무 알고리즘을 분석하여 활동기준원가관리시스템을 설계한다. 가정간호사업의 활동기준원가관리시스템은 가정간호의 효율적 운영과 의료기관의 경영 개선과 항께 실질적 원가계산을 통해 정부가 건강 보험 수가를 결정하고, 보험 수가의 적절성을 평가하는데 중요한 기초 자료를 제공하게 될 것으로 기대한다.

Purpose: This study was done to evaluate nursing guidelines for patients with acute stroke, developed by adapting the guidelines of Registered Nurses Association of Ontario, Canada to clinical settings on a large scale and evaluating the effectiveness as a research study. Method: The general characteristics of the 319 patients and the effectiveness of guideline application were evaluated in terms of structure, process, and outcome using questionnaires on the guidelines application with reference to the medical records of patients with acute stroke hospitalized on a ward of the stroke center of S General Hospital in Seoul. Results: Structures as a guidance system for assessment were consistent with the recommendations. With respect to the process of the guidelines, for items on nursing assessment, improved performance was found to be statistically significant. For outcomes of the guidelines, complications occurred in 8 patients (5.3%) prior to application of the guidelines and 11 patients (6.5%) after application of the guidelines, but this result was not statistically significant (p=.841). Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that for the effectiveness of the guidelines, accessibility to the guidelines and effectiveness of quality improvement need to be evaluated, in addition to complications of a stroke.

This study was to investigate the level of knowledge and adherence to EBP guidelines for hemodialysis among nurses in dialysis units. Self-administered questionnaire was used that data were collected. The sample consisted of 173 nurses who worked in hemodialysis units located in three different district areas in Korea. Using SPSS/WIN 20.0, t-test, ANOVA and Scheff's analysis were performed. About 98.8% of nurses in dialysis units had received education mostly from dialysis conferences or symposium. The knowledge score for EBP was 15.77 (out of 23) on average. Subjects with more than 8 years of work experience, master degree and those working in tertiary hospital showed significantly higher scores. Despite that there are internationally acknowledge evidence based guidelines for hemodialysis, the actual adherence to guidelines varies by experience, education level and types of hospital. The findings of this study can be baseline data for further research into development of strategies to enhance knowledge of hemodialysis nurses and utilization of EBP guidelines.

Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is a student-centered pedagogy that integrates nursing knowledge, skills, and attitudes into clinical nursing practice. This pilot aims to apply a PBL module on preschoolers' growth and development in the nursing curriculum. This quantitative study was performed to develop a PBL module following Dick and Carye's program development process (planning, development, application, and evaluation phases), and to evaluate its effects using structured questionnaires among sophomore nursing students. These students formed teams of four or five people each and spent 40 minutes participating in the PBL module. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, and content analysis. Metacognition level increased significantly. There was no significant difference in team efficacy between pre-test and post-test. Post-test learning satisfaction was high. Students reported obtaining knowledge and problem-solving ability with respect to preschoolers' growth and development and were satisfied with teamwork. This finding offers fundamental knowledge concerning the application of a PBL module in nursing curricula.

This study attempted to examine the structural characteristics of the social network of nursing units by dividing them into a job-related advice network and a friendship network, and to analyze the relationship between nurse organizational commitment and intent to leave. The subjects were 420 nurses working in 4 hospitals and 30 nursing units. Data were analyzed using UCINET 6.0, SPSS 20.0 and HLM 7.0. In job-related advice networks, degree centrality of head nurse contributed to organizational commitment. Network density contributed to intent to leave. In friendship networks, closeness centrality of head nurses and betweenness centrality of charge nurse contributed to organizational commitment. Density and betweenness centrality of charge nurses contributed to intent to leave. Accordingly, it is necessary to foster good relationships between nurses and to develop various types of strategies for building effective networks.

오늘날은 과학문명의 발달로 인하여 기존지식의 수명이 점차 짧아져 가고있는 것이 특징이다. 지식의 증가는 단순히 지식의 양을 증가시키는 역할뿐 아니라 많은 기존지식을 불충분하고 쓸모 없는 것으로 바꿔버리게 한다. 그러므로 학교에서는 학생들에게 어떤 특정지식의 축척보다는 그 학문에 내재해 있는 기본적인 지식의 구조를 학습하게 하여 여러 가지 개념을 관련시키는 논리적 방법을 학습하게 하고 합리적인 탐구방법을 구사할 수 있도록 하여 변화하는 미지의 세계에 대처해 나갈 수 있도록 하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구는 간호학의 기본 지식구조를 확인하는데 그 목적이 있다. 본 연구를 하게 된 동기는 간호업무의 근거로 활용도리 지식체계는 교육과정의 조직원리로 작용될 유형이나 구조를 지니고 있으며 이런 유형이나 구조를 중심으로 간호교육과정을 구성하는 것이 간호교육에 필수적이라는 문제에서 비롯되었다. 연구방법은 1982년 9월부터 1983년 5월에 걸쳐 간호학 문헌을 체계적으로 분석하여 간호학의 개념적 지식구조와 구문적 지식구조를 확인하였다. 그 결과 얻어진 결론은 다음과 같다. 1. 간호학의 개념적 구조： 모든 학문에는 탐구의 대상인 특수현상을 설명하고 서술하는데 활용되는 일련의 실질적, 개념적 구조를 가지고 있다. 그러나 그 학문의 중요한 부분 또는 중심을 포함하고 있는 개념들이 그 분야 또는 학문의 개략이라고 할 수 있는데 연구결과 간호학에서 가장 높은 순위의 대표적 특질을 지닌 개념은 인간, 건강, 환자/대상자, 간호, 행동으로 분석되었다. 2. 간호학의 구문적 지식구조 : 지식구조의 두 번째 요소인 학문의 구문(syntax)은 간호학에서의 특징적인 탐구방법과 관련되나 개념적 구조와 마찬가지로 탐구방법은 학문에 따라 다르며 그 분야의 주요양상을 나타낸다. 연구결과 간호학에서의 특징적인 탐구방법은 공동적으로 간호과정(nursing process)임이 나타났으며 그 요인으로는 사정, 진단, 계획, 수행, 평가의 다섯 단계로 분석되었다.
