The purpose of this study was to identify relationships between a preoperative video program as nursing intervention and the perception of postoperative pain. The subjects consisted of an experimental group of 17 children and a control group of 13 children, for a total of 30 patients who were admitted the ENT Department for tonsilectomies. Data were collected from August 1, 1993 to September 31. The video program was made by the pediatric operating theater nursing staff. Postoperative painwas measured using the Face Pain Rating Scales devised by Beyer in 1984. The data were analyzed by a SPSS using frequencies, means, percentages, t-test and ANOVA to analyze the variables and demographic characteristics. The results of this study are as follows : The hypothesis, “Score of the experimental group which was shown the preoperative video program as a nursing intervention will be lower than the control group which did not see the video in postoperative pain perception.” was rejected by t=-.42, p>.05. No significant difference was found between the experimental group and the control group according demographic characteristics. From the above findings, this study suggests the following : 1. Further studies as randomized control-group pretest-posttest design are needed to control the extraneous variables. 2. A review will be suggested to be done by the preoperative video program as nursing intervention and an exploration to improve preoperative nursing care for pediatric patients with the inclusion such activities as preoperative visiting, operation theater tour etc.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effects of postoperative oral care using cold therapy on nausea, vomiting and oral discomfort after laparoscopic myomectomy. Method: The study was conducted with an experimental group (n=29) and a control group (n=35) sampled from patients admitted to a women's hospital in a metropolitan city in Korea. Data were collected between October 10, 2011 and January 31, 2012 and analyzed using Chi-square, Fisher's exact test, t-test, and repeated measure ANCOVA with SPSS/WIN 19.0. Results: After the intervention, postoperative nausea (p<.001) and oral discomfort for patients in the experimental group were significantly lower than in the control group. There were significant differences in the presence of vomiting between both groups at 12 hours (p<.001) and 24 hours (p=.003) after leaving the recovery room. Conclusion: Oral care using cold therapy was found to be an effective nursing intervention for reducing postoperative nausea, vomiting and oral discomfort up to 24 hours after recovery in patients with laparoscopic myomectomy.

본 연구는 수술에 사용하는 생리식염수가 수술의 종류와 수술진행단계에 따른 오염수준을 파악하여 생리식염수의 적절한 교환시점과 교환방법을 제시하기 위하여 시도되었다. 1500 병상 규모의 대학병원에서 1명의 일반외과 의사가 집도한 37건의 수술을 대상으로 하였다. 37개의 수술 각각에서 피부 절개전, 장기절제 후, 그리고 피부 봉합시의 3 시점에서 수술에 사용된 생리식염수와 공기에 노출시킨 생리식염수에서 각각 50 mL의 생리식염수를 채취하여 얻은 균주의 수를 비교하였다. 공기에 노출시킨 생리식염수에 비해 수술에 사용된 생리식염수에서 균주가 보다 많이 검출된 것으로 나타났다. 특히 수술의 종류에 관계없이 수술 마지막 단계 즉 피부봉합 단계에서 수술에 사용된 생리식염수의 오염수준이 급격히 증가한 반면 공기에 노출시킨 생리식염수의 오염수준 변화는 미미했다. 수술에 사용한 생리식염수에서는 Enterococcus(9.5%), Enterobacter species(4.6%), E. col i(2.8%), Alcaligenes species(1.2%), Klebsiella species(0.9%) and Pasteurella multocida(0.8%) 등의 균주가 검출되었으나 공기에 노출시킨 생리식염수에서는 이러한 균종이 검출되지 않았다. 수술실의 공기가 수술에 사용하는 생리식염수의 오염요인으로 작용하기보다는 수술조직이 생리식염수의 오염요인으로 작용하는 것으로 사료된다. 특히 수술에 사용하는 생리식염수의 오염가능성을 최소화시키기 위해 수술소요 시간이 길어지거나 또는 오염 수술의 경우 절제부위가 봉합된 후에 수술에 사용하는 생리식염수, 생리식염수를 담는 용기 및 봉합에 이용되는 봉합감자 등을 새로이 준비하여 피부 봉합에 이용해야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to develop case-based self-learning multimedia contents for preventing malpractice that frequently occurred among nurses working in the operating room. Methods: Based on the learning needs of operating room nurses, real case reports, and literature reviews, the case-based multimedia learning contents were developed according to the instructional design procedure. The assessment of learning needs was performed by the combination of surveys using structured questionnaire and of interviews for 40 operating room nurses. Results: The learning contents included four learning modules with real malpractice cases from the areas of operating preparation, nursing skills during operation, environmental management of operating room, and patient safety and observation-related. The 80 minute long case-based multimedia learning contents were finally developed after content validity tests from clinical experts. Each module contained photos, sounds and flash animation with voice recording on the contents of nursing error cases and standardized protocols. Conclusion: The developed multimedia learning contents based on real error cases in this study can be utilized as an educational hands-on training materials for nurses to prevent malpractice in the operating room.

This study was to identify the effects of supportive nursing intervention using video-program of operating room nurses before operation on laparoscopic hysterectomy patient's anxiety. This study was nonequivalent control group pre-post test design. The data were collected from May 1 to Jun 20, 2013 and analyzed by $x^2-test$, Fisher's exact test and t-test using SPSS 20.0 program. Experimental group(who received supportive nursing intervention) and control group(who received booklet education) was respectively consisted of 25 patients who were laparoscopy hysterectomy. The anxiety(p=.002) of experimental group was significantly lower than control group. The systolic(p=.012) and diastolic(p=.045) pressure of experimental group was significantly lower than control group, but pulse wasn't. The supportive nursing intervention for preoperative patient is considered effective and useful in reducing anxiety. Further research is warranted to investigate the supportive nursing intervention long-term effect.

Purpose:This study was conducted to identify the effects of theSemi-Fowler's position on post-operative recovery and pain for patients with laparoscopic abdominal surgery Methods: This study utilized a non-equivalent control group non-synchronized design to validate the effects of theSemi-Fowler's position. After IRB approval, 56 patients took part in this study, 29 in the experimental group and 27 in the control group. Consent was obtained from the participants. The Semi-Folwer's position was applied to experimental group and the supine position was applied to the control group for 24 hours after surgery. All data were reviewed retrospectively from April to June 2016. Collected data, frequency, percentage, average, standard deviation, chi-squared test, independent t-test and repeated measures ANOVA were conducted using SPSS 20.0. Results: There was no significant difference between the experimental and control group with regard to recovery outcomes; however, there was a significance differencebetween groups and among check times with regard to post operational pain. Conclusion:The results of this study provide information that will be usefulto the development of strategies for improving recovery outcomes and pain for laparoscopic operation patients.

The purpose of this study was to know the difference in pain, sleep, self-care behavior in patients performed by sternotomy and robotic minimally invasive cardiac surgeries. The participants were 64 patients with sternotomy and 64 patients with minimal thoracotomy in heart valve surgeries at a tertiary hospital in Seoul. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, ${\chi}^2$ test, paired t-test. with SPSS/WIN(22.0). The participants with minimally invasive thoracotomy felt severe pain than the patients with thoracotomy at post operation day 2 & 5. The severe pain site were the surgical site in both groups. The participants with sternotomy had better sleep than minimally invasive thoracotomy patients. Self-care behavior was higher in the minimally invasive thoracotomy group. Therefore, despite the many advantages of robotic surgery such as rapid recovery and shortening of length of stay in hospital, accurate pain assessment and application of differentiated protocols are needed for the management of pain in the patients with robotic minimally invasive cardiac surgeries. In addition, a structured education program intervention is needed to improve comfort by considering gender, age, and method of operation.
