The effect of improvement by keeping the former as the priority was examined through an evaluation of the role of the blood transfusion management (BTM) division. This division manages the status of blood for transfusion, evaluates the adequacy of blood transfusion (EABT), monitors and responds to the occurrence of transfusion-related side effects, and performs other tasks necessary for BTM. Although the establishment and operation of the BTM division can lead to the efficient evaluation of transfusion adequacy, there are disadvantages in that it takes time for EABT and it is difficult for the staff in charge of the BTM division to evaluate the adequacy of all the blood. In the future, it is essential to introduce a BTM division and committee specific to Korean patients to implement safe and appropriate BTM in medical institutions, and to assist medical institutions in training their personnel.

The aim of this study is to find the effect of action learning on the problem solving process of nursing students during the clinical practice of nursing management. A total of 99 senior nursing students participated in this study. Data was collected from May 2006 to October 2007 and statistical analysis for paired t-test was performed on the data using SPSS/WIN 14.0. The results of the data show that there was a significant increase in the problem solving process for nursing students after the implementation of action learning(t=-4.718, p=.000). In the problem solving process, there was a significant increase in definition of problem(t=-4.123, p=.004), design of problem solution(t=-2.973, p=.002), execution of problem solution(t=-3.264, p=.000) and investigation of problem solving(t=-3.677, p=.000). The only exception in the problem solving process was detection of problem(t=-1.858, p=.066). Therefore, action learning provides nursing students a new alternative for improving the problem solving process and clinical adaptability after graduating from nursing school.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of simulation education using standardized patients on respiratory infectious disease knowledge and clinical performance of nursing students. A single-group before-and-after design for the nursing of infectious respiratory patients using standardized patients from March 2 to June 15, 2020, targeting 112 senior nursing students. Respiratory infectious disease education program 'knowledge of lung infectious diseases', 'hand washing', 'wearing a mask', 'encouraging patients and caregivers to wear masks', 'intravenous injection', '3-way injection', 'surgical aseptic technique', 'disinfecting medical devices' , 'contaminated linen management', 'infected person management manual', etc., and 10 educational tasks were performed, and consisted of lectures, technical training, simulation using standardized patients, and debriefing. After simulation education using standardized patients, students' knowledge and clinical performance skills on respiratory infectious diseases showed significant improvement, and it was expected that it could be used for various infection control practices.

The correct distinction of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) and ccarbapenemase producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) and the rapid detection of CPE are important for instituting the correct treatment and management of clinical infections. Screening protocols are mainly based on cultures of rectal swab specimens on selective media followed by phenotypic tests to confirm a carbapenem-hydrolyzing activity, the rapid carbapenem inactivation method, lateral flow immunoassay, the matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight test and molecular methods. The CPE is accurate for detection, and is essential for the clinical treatment and prevention of infections. A variety of phenotypic methods and gene-based methods are available for the rapid detection of carbapenemases, and these are expected to be routinely used in clinical microbiology laboratories. Therefore, to control the spread of carbapenemase, many laboratories around the world will need to use reliable, fast, high efficiency, simple and low cost methods. Optimal effects in patient applications would require rapid testing of CRE to provide reproducible support for antimicrobial management interventions or the treatment by various types of clinicians. For the optimal test method, it is necessary to combine complementary test methods to discriminate between various resistant bacterial species and to discover the genetic diversity of various types of carbapenemase for arriving at the best infection control strategy.

The aim of this study was to compare the perceptions of the role performance of a clinical research coordinator (CRC) between the investigators and clinical research associates (CRAs). Data was collected using a structured questionnaire from 39 investigators and 68 CRAs in 4 hospitals from March 7 to November 30, 2011 and analyzed using descriptive statistics and a t-test. The investigators and CRAs were aware of the importance of CRC's role and they all gave the highest values for patients care management. On the other hand, the score of the role performance items showed perceptional differences between investigators and CRAs. Therefore, the development of detailed job descriptions and manuals will be needed to reduce the perceptional differences in the role performance of the CRC.

Quality control in medical is getting very important issue so that the importance of CDS(Clinical Decision Support) System has been increased. Local clinics as well as big hospitals are required to implement the CDS System. But the cost and complexity of CDS system implementation is so high since many different activities including knowledge authoring, software development, and integrating the legacy system are necessary. In this paper, we suggest the CDS system architecture to be sharable and interoperable and evaluate the availability and efficiency of this architecture.

The purpose of this study was to offer fundamental data to manage countertransference, and to research into countertransference management ability by aspects in therapists' experiences in countertransference and their professional characters. For the paper, a survey was conducted on 62 music therapists who provided professional music therapy after finishing graduate school of music therapy through clinical practice and internship, and the result was drawn as follows. Around 84% of participants answered that they had been in trouble by countertransference in the analysis of a questionnaire regarding experience in countertransference. 48% among them first experienced countertransference during the practice in graduate school. 27% and 14% respectively answered that they experienced it within 3 years after graduation and during internship. Also, the result showed that therapists usually had difficulty with adults with mental disease, and the second most difficult clients were children with developmental disabilities. 76% of participants who had difficulty by countertransference answered that they were able to manage it to some degree, and almost all who answered thought that research into countertransference and management were necessary. About the question as to how to manage countertransference, 54% suggested self-analysis and self-therapy. 33% answered that countertransference should be treated through supervision. Finally, 13% of participants answered that it should be handled in graduate school. In this paper, which empirically examined therapists' experience in countertransference and countertransference management ability had meaning in providing essential basic data for music therapists to apply and manage countertransference for therapists themselves, as well as for clients.
