본 연구의 목적은 지방 환자의 거주지 입원과 서울 입원의 퇴원시 사망률을 비교하여 치료결과를 파악함으로써 향후의 효과성 분석을 위한 기초 자료를 제시하는데 있다. 2005년, 2008년도 환자조사 자료 중 지방거주 환자 자료 333,280건과 419,873건을 연구대상으로 하였으며, 자료분석은 기술통계, 카이제곱 검정, 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 퇴원시 사망에 영향을 미치는 요인에 대해 연도, 성, 보험유형, 의료기관유형, 입원경로, 내원경위, 주진단, 거주지의 효과를 통제한 후 살펴본 결과 거주지 입원환자의 퇴원시 사망률이 서울 입원환자에 비해 2.2배 높은 것으로 나타났다. 암환자의 경우도 효과를 통제한 후 퇴원시 사망률을 살펴본 결과 거주지 입원환자의 사망률이 서울 입원환자에 비해 3.4 배 높게 나타났다. 정부는 지역주민의 의료의 접근성을 높이기 위해 의료공급량의 확충과 분배보다는 지역의료의 질적수준을 향상시키는 방향으로 정책을 펼쳐야 한다.

Background: This paper describes an effort to provide baseline informations for appropriate utilization of emergency room in a tertiary hospital. Methods: Authors have evaluated that the admissions in the emergency room were medically necessary by objective criteria, Appropriateness Evaluation Protocol(AEP), for one month in a tertiary hospital. Data were analysed by chi-square test and multiple logistic regression to exmaine statistical significances at the level of 0.05. Results: The prevalence of inappropriate decisions for admission was found to be 47.8%(154/322). Whether the physician decided the patient to admit or not was affected by type of services, number of departments involved, patients' medical condition, route of visit, and a day of the week visited. Level of appropriateness of admission is significantly related to patients' age, type of services, and a day of the week visited. Conclusion: We found that substantial proportion of admissions through emergency room are medically unnecessary and that non-medical factors are related to physician's for admission decisions and level of appropriateness of admission. This suggests that policy measures be required to relieve the overcrowding problem and to reduce non-emergent utilization of emergency room in a tertiary hospital.

미국의 사례에서 보면 전체 입원환자 중 약 7.2% 이상이 당뇨병환자이고, 이것은 비당뇨인에 비해 2.4배의 입원율에 해당한다고 한다. 우리나라에서도 사정은 비슷해 보통 1000병상에 당뇨병환자가 130명꼴에 달할 정도로 적지 않은 수를 보이고 있다. 그도 그럴 것이 당뇨병환자라면 아무 증상이 없고 불편이 없어도 혈당이 높다고 입원을 권하곤 하는데, 그 내막을 알아보자.

Motivation has been identified as an important factor predicting long-term outcomes of alcohol abuse treatment. Whether a patient agreed on his/her inpatient treatment at time of hospitalization could be an indicator of their motivation for treatment. This study focused on this aspect of treatment motivation and examined whether this factor predicts post-discharge abstinence. A sample of 145 individuals who were hospitalized for alcohol abuse treatment participated in the baseline data collection, of which only 66 successfully completed the 8 month follow-up telephone interview. The findings of survival analysis suggest that voluntarily admitted individuals had significantly longer duration of post-discharge abstinence compared to their counterparts. A Cox proportional hazards regression model revealed that voluntary admission and family support were significant predictors for post-discharge relapse of drinking, after controlling for the effects of marital status, living alone, and working status. Implications for social work practice are discussed.

본 연구의 목적은 지방 환자의 서울 지역 입원진료의 추이를 파악하고 그 요인을 규명하는 데 있다. 이를 위해 2005년 및 2008년 환자조사 입원자료를 이용하였으며, 서울지역 거주 환자를 제외하고 2005년 333,280명, 2008년 419,873명을 연구대상으로 하였다. 자료분석은 기술통계, 카이제곱 검정, 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 2005년 대비 2008년 성별, 연령별, 의료기관 유형 등 일반적 특성의 분포는 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 지방 환자의 서울지역 이용은 다소 증가한 것으로 나타났으며, 서울 지역 입원진료는 남자, 중장년층 건강보험환자가 타기관에서 의뢰되어 외래를 통해 입원하며, 주 거주지가 경기, 강원, 충북, 충남, 제주지역 순으로, 광역시는 상대적으로 낮았다. 질병군별로는 선천성 기형, 신생물, 종양이나 수술후 추후치료, 눈 질환, 혈액 조혈 면역기 질환, 근골격계 질환 순으로 지방환자의 서울지역 의료기관 입원 이용률이 높았다. 그러나 상대적으로 지방 입원진료 확률이 높은 노년층, 의료급여, 응급경유, 질병군별로 중증도가 높은 환자가 혼재되어 있어 있을 가능성이 있어 향후 중증도 보정에 대한 심층 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study is to develop a convergence inpatient medical service patient experience management model(IMSPEMM) that can help in the management strategy of a medical institution to create a patient-centered medical culture. Using the original data from the 2018 Medical Service Experience Survey, 593 people with medical services inpatient(MSI) over the age of 15 were analyzed. By using the decision tree model, we developed a prediction model for overall satisfaction(OS) with the inpatient medical service experience(IMSE) and the intention to recommend patient experience(RI), and were classified into 4 and 7 types. The accuracy of the model was 68.9% and 78.3%. The OS level of IMSE was the nurse area and the hospital room noise management area, and the RI decision factor was the nurse area. It is significant that the IMSPEMM for MSI was presented and confirmed that the nurse area and the noise management area of the hospital room are important factors for the inpatient experience. It is considered that further research is needed to generalize the IMSPEMM.

This study attempts to analyze medical service factors associated with patients' satisfaction, and its difference between inpatients and outpatients in A medium-sized hospital located in rural area. Questionaries have been collected from 411 patients of 96 inpatients and 315 outpatients. The survey was carried out for 4 weeks, from August 20, 2011. The study found that hospital awareness was only factor related to patients' satisfaction in inpatients. In the case of outpatients, several factors were related to patients' satisfaction. They are included qualified health care providers, infirmary accommodations, staff kindness, hospital awareness, and convenient procedure of treatment and admission. Based on the findings, it is desirable to differentiate the strategy in improving patients' satisfaction between patient type; either inpatient or outpatient to being competitive.

The study was carried out to identify the relationship of patients' self-rating and nurses' rating on health literacy of hospitalized patients. Data were collected using the Korean Functional Health Literacy Test (KFHLT) which was revised for hospitalized patients and Single Item Literacy Screener. A total of 178 subjects, which consisted of 89 hospitalized patients and 89 nurses taking care of them, were recruited from medical and surgical wards of E university hospital. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS 23.0 program. The results showed that the average health literacy score of the subjects was $11.45{\pm}4.22$ out of 17 and the average correct answer rate was 67.3%. Patient health literacy was significantly different by age, education, occupation and reading handouts. The patients' self-rating had significant correlation with health literacy measured by KFHLT while nurses' rating did not. There was no significant correlation between patients' self-rating and nurses' rating. The findings suggest that patients' self-rating might be available to assess patient health literacy in hospitals and a careful approach is required when nurses use a single-item rating.

This study was conducted to identify the factors influencing the severity of pressure injuries of patients with pressure injuries admitted to acute university hospital. This study was a secondary analysis on the data of the study conducted to identify the factors influencing the deterioration of pressure injuries during hospitalization. The data were collected by retrospectively examining the medical records of patients with pressure injuries who were 18 years of age or older and who were admitted to acute university hospital from May 2017 to November 2018. We used data from 472 patients with pressure injuries at admission for this secondary analysis. In order to identify the factor influencing of severe pressure injuries compare to superficial pressure injuries, we analyzed the data using logistic regression analysis. As a result of the study, gender, body temperature, and patient's movement were identified as factors affecting severe pressure injuries. Therefore, special care is necessary to increased the number of position change for inpatients with pressure injuries, especially for patients with decreased mobility.

본 연구는 산부인과 내원환자에 대한 미래경영 예측하고자 한 대학병원 의무기록정보통계를 활용하여 외래환자, 입원환자 및 분만관련 자료를 분석한 결과 다음과 같다. 신환환자의 경우 평균 140.9명이었며, 각 연도가 증가함에 따라 유의하게 감소하는 경향을 보였으며(p=0.000), 최초년도(2001)에 212.6명이던 것이 최종년도(2007)에는 80.9명으로 약 140여명의 환자가 감소하였다. 입원 실인원의 경우 평균 124.6명이었며, 각 연도가 증가함에 따라 유의하게 감소하는 경향을 보였으며(p=0.000), 최초년도(2001)에 144.6명이던 것이 최종년도(2007)에는 104.8명으로 약 40여명의 환자가 감소하였다. 입원 환자 특성 및 분만관련 요인 등의 변수를 독립변수로, 입원환자수를 종속변수로 하여 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 입원환자수에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 신환, 연인원 분만수 등이 선정되었으며 이들의 설명력은 62.8%이었다. 이상과 같은 결과 병원은 마케팅보다 환자관리라는 서비스가 우선되어야 하지만 환자 유인 효과도 현재 무시할 수 없으며 이는 환자의 병에 대해 관심을 써주는 병원의 배려가 신뢰로 연결될 수 있을 것이다.
