Bisher wurde kein Beruf zwischen Recht und Berufsethik so diskutiert wie Ärzte. Diskussionen über die Qualifikation(od. Approbation) von Ärzten sind nicht nur eine Frage Koreas, sondern in den meisten zivilisierten Ländern ein wichtiges Diskussionsthema, wenn ein Arzt insbesondere für eine Straftat bestraft wird. Vor kurzem hat sich die koreanische Ärztekammer (the Korean Medical Association) weitgehend gegen das, "Entwurf eines Gesetzes zur Reform des Medizingesetzes" stark ausgesprochen, das die Grunde für den Entzug einer Approbation für ein Verbrechen eines Arztes erweitert. Vor allem wird auf die Gefahr hingewiesen, eine Approbation für Straftaten zu entziehen, die nicht mit beruflichen Pflichten zusammenhängen. Es ist jedoch vernünftig, den Beruf bzw. das Gewerbe zu verbieten, wenn ein Fachmann unter Missbrauch seines Beruf oder grober Pflichtverletzung die Tat begangen hat und die Gefahr bestehet, dass er bei weiterer Ausübung seines Berufs erhebliche rechtswidrige Taten der bezeichneten Art begangen wird. Die Untersagung der Berufsausübung soll die Allgemeinheit gegen die spezifischen Gefahren schützen, die mit der Ausübung eines Berufs oder Gewebes verbunden sind. Da das Berufsverbot nur die Berufsausübung untersagt, die Approbation selbst aber bestehen lässt, kann die Approbationsbehörde in eigener Entscheidungskompetenz die Approbation zurücknehmen, wiederrufen, oder in Ruhen anordnen. Entsprechend dem Verhätnismäßigkeitsgrundsatz ist aber auch das Berufsverbot auf bestimmte Tätigkeiten im Bereich des Berufs zu beschränken, wenn dies zur Erreichung des Maßregelzwecks, dem schutz der Allgemeinheit, ausreichend ist. In diesem Beitrag wurden die Voraussetzunen des Berufsverbots und die tatsächlich an Ärzte bzw. medizinische Personal gerichteten Fälle untersucht.

Establishing nursing professionalism is important for providing quality nursing care in various clinical settings and adapting to changing roles in a range of situations. The aim of this study was to identify the influence of volunteer activities and sense of community on nursing professionalism for nursing students. A convenience sampling method of 160 students in a nursing department of university in D city was used in June 2019. Data were analyzed using a t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's Correlation Coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis. The results of this study were as follows. The nursing professionalism score was above the middle level and differed according to the volunteer motivation and activity continuity significantly. Satisfaction with volunteer activities had a significant positive correlation with a sense of community (r=.47, p<.001), and nursing professionalism had a significant positive correlation with the satisfaction with volunteer activities (r=.51, p<.001). The factors affecting nursing professionalism were a sense of community (p<.001) and satisfaction with volunteer activities (p<.001); this model could explain 37.9% (F=20.38, p<.001).

This study aims to identify the awareness and performance level of hospital infection control in medical technicians working in small and medium-sized hospitals. The experiment was conducted in 235 medical technicians (medical laboratory technologist, radiological technologist, and physical therapist), and for statistical processing, SPSS Ver.23.0 was used to conduct mean and standard deviation, analysis of variance, and regression analysis. As a result, it was found that the major cause of improper infection control was lack of experts ($3.17{\pm}1.18$) and performance level was statistically significantly lower than awareness of infection control. "I took no measures after infection accident" was responded the highest at 40.0%(94 persons), and in "I reported to the head of department after disinfection, examination, and/or vaccination," the standardized regression coefficient ${\beta}$ was -0.265, p=0.025, which suggested that there was a significant negative (-) impact. Infection control level showed a significant positive correlation with training and infection control instructions. Therefore, it was found that medical technicians in small and medium-sized hospitals required high skilled manpower in infection control, training, infection control instructions, etc. Through this study, more effective infection control is considered to be possible.

Objectives : To identify the effects of supplemental private health insurance on health care utilization and expenditure under the mandatory National Health Insurance(NHI) system in Korea. Methods : The data were collected by the National Cancer Center in Korea. Cancer patients who were newly diagnosed with stomach (ICD code, C16), lung(C33-C34), liver (C22), colorectal cancer(C18-C20) or breast(C50) cancer were included as study subjects. Data were gathered using a structured questionnaire from face-to-face interviews, the hospital Order Communication System (OCS) and medical records. Clinical, socio-demographic and private health insurance related factors were also gathered. The differences of health care utilization and expenditure were compared between those who have private health insurance and those who do not using t-test and multivariable regression analysis. Results : Individuals with private health insurance spent larger inpatient costs than those without, but no differences were found in utilization in other service such as hospital admissions, hospital days and physician visits. Conclusions : We found that private health insurance exerts a significant effect on the health care expenditure in inpatient service. These study results can provide a rational basis to plan a national health policy regarding private health insurance. Further studies are needed to investigate the impacts of private health insurance on cancer patients' outcomes and survival rates.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to propose contents of a curriculum and training program for dental hygienists as medical professionals by surveying the opinions of clinical dental hygienists and dental hygiene professors. Methods: The subjects were 192 clinical dental hygienists and 193 dental hygiene professors. They answered questionnaires that consisted of grading each task based on its importance: a) for dental hygiene students to learn, b) to perform autonomously in clinical practice, and c) the expectancy of the task to change when dental hygienists become medical professionals. Data analysis was performed using an independent sample T test to capture differences between clinical dental hygienists and dental hygiene professors. The terms in the answers of open-ended questionnaires were extracted. We used R 3.5.0, R Recommender, and Wordcloud software packages. Results: Calculus removal had the highest scores for dental hygiene students to learn and expectancy to change when dental hygienists become medical professionals. Physiotherapy of temporomandibular disorders (TMD), planning, performing, and assessment of community oral health programs had the lowest scores in autonomy in clinical practice. The dental hygiene professors gave higher scores in most of the tasks for dental hygiene students to learn, autonomy in clinical practice, and expectancy to change, than did clinical dental hygienists. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), job ethics, and communication were the most frequently mentioned terms in the training as medical professionals program contents.

This study analyzes the 'performance efficiency' of AI-based reading assistance systems in the field of radiology by measuring their 'time behavior' properties. Due to the increase in medical images and the limited number of radiologists, the adoption of AI-based solutions is escalating, stimulating a multitude of studies in this area. Contrary to the majority of past research which centered on AI's diagnostic precision, this study underlines the significance of time behavior. Using 50 chest X-ray PA images, the system processed images in an average of 15.24 seconds, demonstrating high consistency and reliability, which is on par with leading global AI platforms, suggesting the potential for significant improvements in radiology workflow efficiency. We expect AI technology to play a large role in the field of radiology and help improve overall healthcare quality and efficiency.
