몸의 기둥이며 중심인 척추. 두개골을 받치고 우리 몸의 무게를 지탱하고 분산할 뿐만 아니라, 우리 몸을 통제하는 척수신경의 배관 통로이기도 하다. 척추가 건강해야 몸이 건강한 것은 두말하면 잔소리. 척추 건강을 지키는 가장 쉬운 방법은 평소 바른 생활 자세를 유지하고 꾸준히 운동하는 것이다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify effects of postural habits and stress on low back pain experienced by nursing students. Methods: The survey was conducted with 282 students at 5 nursing schools in Seoul, Incheon, Chungcheongbuk, and Jeollabuk Province. Data were collected from October, 2013 to January, 2014. Data analyses including descriptive analysis, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, Spearman's rank correlation coefficients, and multiple regression were performed using SPSS 21.0. Results: In multiple regression, habit of standing on force of one feet (${\beta}=.23$, p<.001), habit of sleeping on one's back (${\beta}=-.19$, p=.020), habit of resting the chin on one's hands (${\beta}=.15$, p=.029), and habit of carrying a bag on one shoulder (${\beta}=.12$, p=.011) were associated with low back pain experienced by nursing students. These factors accounted for 12.9% of the variance in the low back pain in undergraduate students. Conclusion: These results suggest that low back pain in nursing students are related to their habits of posture in daily life. Therefore, intervention program to encourage healthy postural habits can be effective to prevent low back pain in nursing students.

The human gait pattern analysis shoes have been developed for our healthy lfe, which is largely dependent on a posture and a skeletal structure affected by daily lifestyle and gait pattern. There are generally 3 types of human gait, such as normal gait, intoeing gait, and outtoeing gait. We have analyzed one's gait pattern through walking put on the developed shoes.

Recently, the number of patients with habitual vertebrae is increasing due to inappropriate postures and habits while sitting on a chair for a long time, because modern people have a great deal of work and studying due to a lot of work and study. Therefore, it is necessary to prevent such a disease through real-time monitoring and to present a guide for the user to recognize the importance of correct posture. In this study, we implemented a posture discrimination system which can help users to calibrate posture by judging the user's sitting position and feedback by using a pressure sensor based weight distribution system. We analyzed the distribution pattern of body weight to determine one normal posture and six abnormal postures. If the abnormal posture is maintained constantly, the implementation of the application that induces the right posture by ringing the notification is described.

최근 극심한 불황으로 두통이나 편두통이 발생하여 병원을 찾는 사람이 2006년에 비해서 2008년에는 19.5%가 증가하였다고 한다. 편두통은 생활의 불안정과 미래에 대한 불안감에 의해 스트레스가 극대화되고, 운동부족과 좋지 않은 자세 습관으로 근육과 혈관이 수축됨으로 인해 호르몬의 변화가 생기면서 유발된다. 증상에 대한 회복을 위해서는 마음가짐을 편안히 하고 규칙적인 식사와 꾸준한 운동이 필수라고 할 수 있다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the influences of hospital employees' daily life posture habits and work-related factors upon musculoskeletal subjective symptoms. Methods: This study was a descriptive survey study. Data were collected using structured a self-report questionnaire between April 1 and May 31, 2015. One hundred and ninety two employees were recruited in three hospitals. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, ${\chi}^2$ test, t-test, and binomial logistic regression. Results: The habit of leaning on one side and the habit of bending the back in an improper posture are key postures based on lifestyle affecting musculoskeletal subjective symptoms in neck, shoulders, arms, waist, and legs. Labours accompanying repeated arm movements for a long time are key work-related risk factors affecting musculoskeletal subjective symptoms in arms. Conclusion: The results of this study confirmed that, to prevent musculoskeletal diseases, it is necessary to identify and mediate personal factors like daily life posture habits as well as work-related risk factors. They may be utilized as basic materials for education of musculoskeletal health promotion and development of life guidance programs.

Purposes: The purposes of this study were to identify the level of knowledge of good posture and postural habits among elementary school children and to identify the relationship between knowledge of good posture and postural habits. Method: A descriptive correlational study was conducted. The participants were 507 elementary school children in Jangheung County. Data were collected using self-administered questionnaires. Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and correlation were used for data analysis. Results: The percentage of correct answer for the knowledge test was 65.83%. Postural habits were not good. Although the strength of correlation was low, there is a statistically significant positive correlation between knowledge and postural habits. Not only school health nurses but also class teachers and parents played important roles in spinal health education. Educational needs for spinal health are high. Conclusion: Although more research in this area is warranted, there is a pressing need for interventions aimed at developing healthy habits that promote postural hygiene among elementary school children. Development and evaluation of back education programs in elementary school is necessary.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate dysmenorrhea in undergraduate students and its affecting factors. Method: The survey was conducted with 453 students at 4 nursing school in Seoul, Incheon, Chungcheongbuk and Jeollabuk Province. Data were collected from September to December 2013, and analyzed with SPSS Windows 21.0. Results: In a final model of hierarchial multiple regression, menarcheal age (${\beta}$=-0.13, p=.003), menstrual amount (${\beta}$=0.17, p=.001), stress (${\beta}$=0.18, p=.010) habit of sitting by crossing one's legs (${\beta}$=0.14, p=.003) were associated with dysmenorrhea in undergraduate students. These factors attributed to 12.0% of variance in the dysmenorrhea of undergraduate students. Conclusion: These results suggest that dysmenorrhea in undergraduate student could be influenced by habit of sitting by crossing one's legs as well as menstrual history and stress. Ultimately, intervention program including correct of cross-legged sitting postures can be effective for undergraduate students to alleviate dysmenorrhea.

앉아서 생활하는 시간이 많은 현대인들에게 올바르게 앉는 자세는 매우 중요하다. 따라서 현대인들이 올바른 자세를 유지할 수 있도록 도와주는 자세 모니터링 시스템을 고안하게 되었다. 이 시스템의 주요 구성으로는 전원부와 계측부, 제어부, 통신부, 안드로이드기반 어플리케이션으로 나눌 수 있다. 전원부는 9V의 건전지 하나로 구성되어 있고, 2개의 레귤레이터를 통해 아날로그 회로(3.3V)와 MCU(5V)에 전원이 공급되어진다. 그리고 계측부는 6개의 압력센서를 이용하여 아날로그 값을 계측한다. 제어부와 통신부는 MCU 보드(MSP430 Launchpad)와 FB155BC Bluetooth Module로 구성되어 있고, 안드로이드기반 어플리케이션은 Bluetooth Module에서 받은 디지털 신호들을 스마트폰의 화면에 UI공정을 거쳐 디스플레이 한다. 본 연구는 잘못된 자세로 의자에 앉는 습관을 스마트폰의 화면을 통해 실시간으로 확인하고, 바른 자세로 앉을 수 있도록 하여 척추교정 및 척추질환 예방에 기여할 것으로 예상된다.

This research was performed to evaluate for the life style and the position of the pelvis and the scapular on the coronal plane among 78 students at the April, 7. 1995/ In this result the right scupular elevation was observed more 28 cases $(28\%)$ than the left scupular elevation, But the left pelvic tilt was observed more 38 cases $(48.7\%)$ than right pelvic tilt. There was no significant between the posture and the difference of scapular elevation and pelvic on the coronal plane.
