A dog with a history of long-term phenobarbital administration presented to Seoul National University Hospital for Animals with clinical signs of footpad ulceration and facial ulcerative dermatitis. Skin lesions (facial/footpad dermatitis), histopathologic signs (parakeratotic hyperkeratosis, edema and hyperplasia of the epidermis), and liver involvement (increased plasma liver enzymes and nodular lesions) suggested a diagnosis of superficial necrolytic dermatitis (SND). The patient died suddenly at home of unknown cause after 8 months medical treatment, but intravenous amino acid supplementation and supportive hepatic medication proved as effective for the skin conditions.

병원 근로자의 VDT 자각 증상에 대한 선행연구를 보면 대부분이 간호사 관련 직종으로 한정되어 있고, 방사선사에 대한 연구는 수행되지 않았다. 본 연구는 2009년 10월 15일부터 11월 2일까지 대전광역시에 소재하고 있는 종합병원에 VDT 작업을 시행하는 보험심사, 원무, 의무기록, 전산, 행정부서 근무자와 방사선사를 대상으로 구조화된 설문지를 활용하여 분석하였다. VDT 증후군 자각 증상 점수를 종속변수로 한 다중선형회귀 분석 결과 관련요인으로 안관련 증상에 영향을 미치는 요인을 보면 성별, 건강염려, 일상생활 방해이며, 전신증상은 운동, 스트레스, 건강상태 인지 관련, 근골격 증상에서는 임상경력 6-10년, 대인관계, 건강상태 인지 관련 건강염려와 일상생활 방해로 나타났으며, 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 피부 증상으로는 연령 20-29세, 결혼여부, 식습관, 건강상태 인지 관련 소화 정도와 일상생활 방해로 나타났으며, 심리 증상으로는 성별, 결혼 여부, 스트레스, 소화 정도, 일상생활 방해로 나타났으며, 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 타부서 근로자와 방사선사의 VDT 증후군 자각점수 차이가 크게 나타나지 않았으며, 이는 방사선사의 업무가 VDT 환경으로 변함으로써 VDT 증후군 자각 증상이 일어날 수 있다는 것을 나타내는 것이다. 이는 정기적인 순환근무를 시행함으로써 VDT 환경에 지속적인 노출을 피하는 것이 예방 대책이라 할 수 있다.

This study was a descriptive survey to identify influences of nurses' professional autonomy and empathy on patient safety culture. The participants were 191 nurses working at a general hospital in Seoul. The data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 24.0 program. Patient safety culture had a significant correlation with nurses' professional autonomy (r=.26, p<.001) and the subscales of empathy, which were perspective-taking (r=.30, p<.001) and empathic concern (r=.27, p<.001). Factors influencing patient safety culture were perspective-taking (${\beta}=.27$, p<.001), professional autonomy (${\beta}=.20$, p=.004), and a total clinical career of over ten years (${\beta}=.17$, p=.012). The results of this study could be the basic data for the development of programs that enhance the professional autonomy and empathy of nurses. In addition, it is necessary to study repeatedly in various groups in the future.

Total 40 Q-samples were extracted from Q-population consisted of the 385 statements, which were collected from 135 nurses with more than one year clinical experience in H city and 250 nursing students at H university. The Q-sample classification was conducted by 10 nurses and 40 nursing students, and data were analyzed by using PQ method program. As results, the types of nurse's images were derived as 'textbooked', 'realistic' and 'periodic.' This study was meaningful in analyzing the types of nurse image from both nurses and nursing students. In order to improve the image of nurses, we propose not only to develop a systematic nursing curriculum but also to develop health and medical policies reflecting reality of care settings.
