This study was to find the factors influencing satisfaction of Korean medical tour services of Chinese college students. Structured questionnaire was developed to collect data. The data were collected from the 175 students between May 1 and May 15 in 2015 in an international college in China. The expectations and the evaluations on the Korean medical tour services were compare by t-test. To find the factors influencing satisfaction on Korean medical tour services, diverse linear regression models were estimated. According to the best fit regression model, technologies, quality of medical tour services, and health care cost significantly and positively influenced satisfaction on the Korean medical tour services. The results of the study suggested that we need to prepare marketing strategies to improve understandings on Korean medical tour services for the Chinese college students. Improvement of technology, improvement of quality of health service, and setting of reasonable price are important to attract more Chinese patients to Korea.

The purpose of this study is to explore risk factors affecting the oral health quality of life of non-medical hospital workers. As for the research method, a survey was conducted on 608 workers at hospitals in the metropolitan area from April 20 to July 30, 2021. As research tools, questions related to work loss, oral health status, and oral health quality of life were investigated. For the analysis methods, independent sample t-test, one-way ANOVA test, and hierarchical regression analysis were performed. As a result of controlling exogenous variables, gender(β=0.108), systemic disease(β=0.136), oral health level(β=0.201), and oral health status(β=0.463) were found to have an effect on the quality of life. Initiating regular oral health education for non-medical hospital workers will be of great help to promote oral health and work.

This study aims to identify utilization status of medical care and factors to affect quality of life in diabetes mellitus patients. The research selected 6,146 adults aged over 50, who appeared with EQ-5D, from the Korean health panel. We analyzed states of medical care utilization using descriptive statistics. Multiple regression analysis was used to examine the main factors associated with quality of life in diabetes patients. The result shows that quality of life(EQ-5D) in diabetes is significantly associated with gender, age, insurance type, education level, household income, diabetes ambulatory medical cost and the number of ambulatory medical utilization for other diseases. Females, higher age, lower levels of education, medicaid, the lower household income, the higher diabetes ambulatory medical cost, and the higher the number of ambulatory medical utilization for other diseases were the significant factors of lower quality of life. Therefore, it is necessary to develop effective social programs and individualized approach to improve the quality of life in diabetes patients. In the future, these findings can be used as important data for health care policy and assessment.

문제: 투약오류는 의료기관 전반에서 가장 많이 발생하는 오류의 하나이며, 환자에게 중대한 위해를 초래하기도 한다. 특히 고농축전해질은 문제발생의 가능성과 위험성이 높아 지속적인 관리 및 교육을 필요로 하고 있다. 목적: 발생한 투약오류 건에 대한 근본원인분석을 시행함으로써 유사사례가 발생하는 것을 예방하여 환자안전을 도모하고자 한다. 의료기관: 연세대학교 세브란스병원 질 향상 활동: 투약오류 건에 대해 근본원인분석 시행 후 고위험약물 관련 내규를 보완하였고, 고위험약물에 대한 Alert System 개발, 고위험약물 라벨 부착, 약 처방 관련 의료진 교육을 시행하였다. 개선효과: 고위험약물 투여와 관련된 시스템 개선 활동 이후 유사사례는 발생하지 않았고, 의료진 교육을 통하여 환자안전에 대한 인식과 중요성을 더욱 증가시켰다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of implementation of the healthcare accreditation system on patient safety, quality of medical care, organization culture and management performance of convalescent hospitals. Ten hospitals were selected at random from among 36 convalescent hospitals in Daegu that had obtained accreditation until September 2015. To accomplish this, hospital staff were surveyed from 15 February to 25 March, 2016 using a questionnaire with 253 objects. We investigated how the healthcare accreditation system has influenced patient safety, service quality, organization culture and performance of hospital management. The change in the treatment support system showed the highest score of 3.93 among quality change and medical service items, while that of personnel source culture showed the highest score of 3.78 points among organization culture items, and that of internal process view, study and growth view showed the highest score of 3.71 among management performance items. Multiple regression analysis revealed that factors positively changing hospital management performance were nurses, employees and managers, basic value systems, organization culture, personnel source culture, open system culture, hierarchical culture, and production oriented culture. The quality of patient safety and medical care was positively influenced by changes in the quality of convalescent hospitals after implementation of the healthcare accreditation system. However, among the four types of organizational culture, the financial perspective was relatively low compared to other perspectives.

최근 센서를 이용한 의료 분야로의 유비쿼터스 시스템 및 서비스 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 의료 분야 서비스의 기본적 전제인 WBAN 환경에서의 기존의 모니터링 시스템은 매우 수동적이다. 이를 개선해 스트림 데이터에 대해 보다 효율적인 모니터링 시스템을 구축하기 위한, 우선 순위를 표현하기 위한 큐(Queue)와 각 속성에 대한 질의로 구성된 레벨 트리(Level Tree)로 이어지는 질의 색인 구조에 대해 논하고자 한다.
