The pulp fabric impregnanted 100% natural insect repellent was evaluated in an environmental chamber (laboratory, mongsanpoo beach, taejo Mt, naksan and seolak beach) for their repellent efficacy against insects. The results showed significant average repellency of 91%, 78%, 90%, and 93% of laboratory, mongsanpoo beach, taejo Mt, naksan and seolak beach, respectively, during the 1hour of exposure period.

$100\%$천연향을 이용하여 제작, 개발된 해충기피제의 기피력을 테스트하였다. 해충기피제를 착용한 그룹과 착용하지 않은 그룹으로 구분하여 실험실에서 사육한 모기와 서해안에 위치한 몽산포 해수욕장, 동해안에 위치한 낙산 및 선악 해수욕장과 천안에 있는 태조산에서 해충에 대한 기피력을 측정하였으며, 각 그룹별로 5명씩 5회에 걸쳐 각 회당 1시간동안에 흡혈개체로부터 물린 갯수를 확인하여 이들의 평균값을 계산하였다. 그 결과, 실험실에서는 $91\%$, 몽산포 해수욕장에서는 $78\%$, 낙산 및 설악 해수욕장에서는 $93\%$, 태조산에서는 $90\%$의 기피력을 보여주었으며, 이는 상당히 탁월한 기피 효과를 나타내었다.

현재 사용하고 있는 안전대는 벨트가 허리와 엉덩이 부분에 매여지도록 되어 있고, 충격흡수능력이 부족하여 추락시 허리나 하반신을 다치게 할 수 있으며 중량이 무겁다는 결점이 있다. 또한 이 제품은 작업복 위에 별도로 착용해야 하는 번거로움이 있어서 근로자들이 이의 착용을 기피하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 근로자가 실수하여 추락을 한다고 하여도 추락시 충격흡수가 완만하되 정확하여 충격에 의한 상처나 허리부상이 없고 착용하기가 편리한 새로운 안전보호장구를 고안 제시하려 한다.(중략)

목재가공용 둥근톱은 노동부 법률 산업안전보건법에 의거 유해위험 기계기구로 명시되어 있어 날접촉예방장치인 덮개를 설치한 후 사용하도록 되어 있다 그러나 둥근톱에 의한 사고는 매년 발생하고 있으며 그 원인의 대부분은 덮개를 설치하지 않은 채 목재를 가공하고 있기 때문이다. 건설현장에서 목수들이 덮개를 설치하지 않은 채 목재를 가공하는 원인을 고찰하고 적절한 대응 조치를 간구하여 작업의 편의성과 작업자의 안전성을 확보하는 일은 대단히 중요한 과제이며 또한 안전장치의 잘못된 사용과 안전장치의 결함으로 사고 발생시에는 근로자에게 미치는 파급효과가 대단함은 물론 왜곡되어 전파되는 특성이 있어 사고의 원인이 마치 안전장치의 사용 때문에 있는 것으로 알려지게 되면 대부분의 근로자들은 안전장치의 부착과 착용을 기피하게 된다. 따라서 작업의 편의성과 적합한 안전장치 및 올바른 사용관리가 무엇보다도 중요하다고 할 수 있다.(중략)

The purposes of this study were to assess current status of respirator usage among workers in the small-scale industries and to identify those factors causing respirator wearers not to continuously wear respirators during work. Total 168 workers participated voluntarily in the survey. In order to cover all possible reasons, though not exclusive, 33 diverse questions were developed based upon the results in the published literatures and from researchers' own experience. The most common type of respirator worn was the disposable single-use respirator(42%). However, masks made of gauze, which should not be considered as a respirator, were widely used (38%). Only 28% of respondents indicated they wear respirators continuously during work. The major reasons for removing respirators include, in descending order of frequency, difficulty in breathing (46%), sweating (39%), bothered by frequent removal (21%), inadequate mask size (19%) and hot air temperature inside the respirator (19%), etc. In addition, minor reasons including mask design, administrative, and personal reasons were also identified. These reasons should be considered in a well designed respirator program in order to improve workers' acceptance and usage of respirators.

Since the Act on Punishment of Serious Accident has been implemented, the role of construction companies in safety and health and the responsibility of CEO are strengthened. However, serious accidents still occur. Due to population decline and young people's reluctance into the construction industry, the ratio of elderly workers and foreign workers is increasing at construction sites. In this study, a survey was conducted to identify differences in the perception of importance of smart safety technology among vulnerable groups such as foreign workers, elderly workers, and workers with health conditions. Vulnerable workers recognize the importance of smart technology in the fields of foreign language support, risk warning, and body wear monitoring, and the conclusion was drawn that smart technology should be expanded for vulnerable groups in the future.

Background: Patients suffering with pectus carinatum complain of cosmetic problems when they stand and this in spite of wearing cloths. The standard surgical treatment of pectus carinatum is resection of the deformed cartilages, but the wide operative scar, post-operative pain and complications related with such an operation can occur. Therefore, we have peformed compressive brace therapy as a non-operative treatment for pectus carinatum and we observed the effects and the efficiency of this treatment. Material and Method: From January, 2001 to December, 2006, 109 patients wore the compressive brace for all day. The degree of satisfaction was evaluated after $6\sim9$ months of wearing the compressive brace. The degree of satisfaction was evaluated by a score of from $1\sim4$. A score of 1 was assigned when the status was worse, 2 when it was the same, 3 when there was partial improvement and 4 when remarkable improvement was observed. The degree of satisfaction was assessed subjectively by the parent if the patient was a child younger than middle school age, and the patients older than middle school age assessed the score themselves. Result: The mean score of the overall degree of satisfaction was $3.93{\pm}0.33$. Recurrence of pectus carinatum after removal of compressive brace occurred in 6 patients (5.5%) of the total 109 patients. But 4 patients of the total 6 recurred patients stopped wearing of compressive brace against our advice. The 6 recurred patients were re-corrected by re-wearing the compressive brace within 3 months after they originally removed the compressive brace. The complications were discomfort with initially wearing the compressive brace, which occurred in all patients, skin rash due to the compressive brace for 76 patients (69.7%) and skin discolorization with excessive compression for f6 patients (5.5%). The skin rash and discolorization returned to normal within a few months after removal of the compressive brace. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that non-surgical treatment with using the compressive brace for patients with pectus carinatum was effective, and especially for children and teenagers. Non-surgical treatment with using a compressive brace would be helpful for the patients suffering with pectus carinatum and who dislike surgical operations because of their fear about general anesthesia and operation-related complications. Yet long-term follow up is necessary to accurately evaluate the effectiveness of this compressive brace and the recurrences after removal of the compressive brace.

This paper illustrate residual hearing and socio-medical background on the hearing impaired children, 207 comming to Deaf School. attached to Hankuk Social Work College, Taegu, Korea. The survey was performed through interview with their parents and testing by diagnostic audio-meter (TRIO, AS 105 type) at soundproof room from March 10, to November 28, 1973. The results obtained were as follows. 1) The attendance rate of the compulsory primary school was markedly lower tendency in female than male according to directly proportional to prevalence rate of deafness among them. If was showed the deeper gap in the more superior school (middle and high school). 2) Who entered at the suitable age to each school (six years old to primary school, 12 years to middle and 15 years to high) was 11.3%. And who were enrolled in school age to each school (6-11 years for primary. 12-14 years for middle and 15-17 years for high) was 45.9% (43.7% in male, 50.0% in female). 3) As causative disease, congenital case, were 23.6% included of 13.5% of heredity and 10.1% of troubles during pregnancy; the total acquired cases were 47.9%, it was classified as 11.6% of convulsion from any other diseases, 7.7% of measles, 7.7% of other febrile diseases, 3.4% of drug (the most of streptomycin) intoxication, 2.4% of meningitis, 1.5% of epidemic encephalitis and 31.3% of other diseases; and unknown cases were 28.5%. 4) 31.4% of who included congenital cases lost their hearing within six months old, 11.6% in 6-11 months. 9.7% in 1-2 years old and 14.0% in 2-3years old. Consequently we obtained that the most cases 90.0% were lost their hearing within 3 years after birth. 5) According to qualities of hearing leases the most of cases were perceptive, 197(97.5%), only two cases were conductive, and eight cases were mixed. 6) The status of residual hearing according to average grade of hearing loss. $B(=\frac{a+2b+c}{4}$ as table 13) were as follows. Two cases were normal (one was mute and another was severe speach disorder). Ten cases, moderate. Moderately severe cases were 40 (19.3%). Severe cases, 38(18.4%). Scale out, profound cases, 48 (23.3%). And impossible testing cases because that were infantile or had some mental disorder were 69 (33.3%). 7) The using rate of hearing aides was only 12.0%. Among them who had some more residual hearing and could showed hearing effect with hearing aide have used more many proportionary but who were difficult to expect that effect were rare.
