본 연구는 혈액 투석 중인 성인 환자 집단과 노인 환자 집단 간의 우울, 불안 및 자율신경기능의 차이를 비교해 보고자 하였다. 정신의학적 특징들과 자율신경기능을 비교해보았을 때 만성질환에 견디어 내는 능력에 있어서 노인 환자 집단이 성인 환자 집단에 비해 취약하지 않은 결과를 보였다. 이는 만성질환을 앓고 있는 동일한 상황에서 노인들이 보다 긍정적 사고 경향을 가지고 있는 것과 관련되어 있을 것으로 생각된다.

매년마다 신장질환으로 고통 받는 사람들이 증가하는 추세이다. 가장 흔한 치료법 중 하나는 혈액 투석인데, 이 방법은 많은 시간이 걸리고, 비용이 많이 드는 방법이다. 이러한 이유 때문에, 인공신장 연구의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 혈액에서 크레아티닌을 여과하는 것은 신장의 주요 기능 중 하나이다. 우리는 이 기능에 초점을 맞춘 새로운 2 채널 마이크로 플루이딕 칩을 고안하였다. 두 개의 PDMS 층을 결합하기 위하여, 아크릴을 가공한 하우징 시스템이 개발하였으며, 이 방법은 여과막을 쉽게 바꿀 수 있다는 이점이 있다. 우리는 알루미늄 양극 산화물(AAO)을 여과막으로 사용하였다. 여과된 용액은 자페반응(Jaffe reation)을 이용하여, 크레아티닌 농도별 흡광도 차이를 분석하였다. 크레아티닌의 양에 대한 표준식을 만들어, 측정한 데이터를 보간하여 여과된 용액의 농도를 확인하였다. 실험을 통하여 유량 및 크레아티닌 농도에 따른 여과율을 얻을 수 있었다.

Purpose:The purpose of this study was to apply the disinfection method using chlorhexidine in practice on disinfection of vascular access for hemodialysis. Methods: This study was designed as a randomized controlled trial for examining effectiveness on infection of the vascular access device for hemodialysis when using chlorhexidine and betadine/alcohol. One-hundred-thirty study participants were separated into two groups randomly. Infection signs of the vascular access device for hemodialysis were observed and recorded before disinfection on vascular access device. Result: Before the study, there was no difference between the experimental group (chlorhexidine group) and the control group (betadine/alcohol group) in general characteristics and hematological index. Incidence of infection rate of chlorhexidine group was 0 percent and the betadine/alcohol group was 1.5 percent. There was no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion: This study examined the effectiveness of prevention of infection with the disinfection method using chlorhexidine and betadine/alcohol. The disinfection method using chlorhexidine is considered an effective and alternative method of betadine/alcohol.

The present study was performed to clarity the effect of hemodialysis(HD) on acute renal failure induced by bilateral ligation of the ureter. HB was applied on 48 hours(1st HD) and 72 hours(2nd HD) after ligation of the ureter, respectively. Clinical signs including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and depression were observed in all cases(6 heads), however, those symptoms were much improved after HD. Hematological values including WBC, PCV and PLT were increased after ligation of the ureter, however, those values were decreased by HD without significance, compared with those of before HD. In addition, serum BUN, creatinine, Ca and P levels were increased after ligation of the ureter, however, BUN(p<0.05), creatinine(p<0.05) and P(p<0.05) were significantly decreased by HD, compared with before HD, respectively. Considering above findings, it was thought that HD was effective for improvement of clinical symptoms of dogs with induced acute renal failure.

From november, 1985 to May, 1993, 222 arteriovenous fistulae were made in 201 patients with chronic renal failure. Among them, a total of 183 arteriovenous fistulae in 173 patients were reviewed to evaluate the factors influencing patency rate of the vascular access. The results were revealed as follows: There were 102 men and 71 women,aged 10 to 76 years [mean = 45.7 years]. Sixteen patients of them had previous shunts. The procedures included establishment of 214 radiocephalic or brachioocephalic fistulae, 203 side to end, 9 side to side, 2 end to end, 2 autologous saphenous vein grafts, 6 Gore-Tex grafts. There were 28 early shunt failures[12%] due to use of 23 inadequate veins and 5 thrombosis.There were 32 late complications[14%]; 19 thrombosis, 4 aneurysm, 4 venous hypertension, 3 steal syndrome, 2 infections. There were 32 diabetic patients [17 %]. No significant differences in graft patency were noted between diabetic and nondiabetic individuals. There were no significant difference in graft patency between male and female. Overall shunt patency in 183 cases with chronic renal failure was 96% at I month, 95% at 3 months, 93% at I year, 91% at 2 years, 84% at 3 years, 56% at 5years.This Study showed that early postoperative thrombosis and diabetic vasculopathy were most causes of the vascular access failure and suggested that prevention of thrombi and well control of diabetes mellitus were most important to enhance patency rates of the vascular access.

Malnutrition is a common problem in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis(HD) and compromised food intake is an important cause. Malnutrition is one of the important factors influencing mortality in chronic HD patients. We investigated the nutritional parameters of 50 Korean HD patients(mean age: 46.9 $\pm$ 10.3y, men : 23, women : 27) by measuring anthropometric and biochemical blood indices and assessing food intake using 24-h recall method. Also we administered two questionnaires, one for assessing nutritional knowledge about renal disease and dietary therapy, the other for measuring dietary habits related to dietary therapy. According to the distribution of BMI, 21.3% of HD patients were underweight. The hematological values of HD patients, such as plasma hemoglobin, hematocrit, and total lymphocyte count were below the normal range. The serum cholesterol levels were 133.2 $\pm$ 30.5mg/dl. HD patients took energy and protein only 77.5% and 83.1%, respectively, of their RDA. There were significantly positive correlations between nutritional knowledge and intake of nutrients, such as energy, fat, cholesterol, iron, potassium, vitamin B$_1$, vitamin B$_2$, and niacin. Also, there was a significantly positive correlation between nutritional knowledge and dietary habits(r = 0.317, p < 0.05). In conclusion, Korean HD patients showed mild malnutrition and suboptimal nutrition intake. It can be postulated that the dietary intake can be increased by nutrition education improving nutritional knowledge and correcting the dietary habits of HD patients.

Malnutrition is a common problem in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (HD) and compromised food intake is an important cause. Malnutrition is one of the important factors influencing mortality in these patients. This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of nutrition education at improving nutritional status of 23 Korean HD patients (mean : 48.6 $\pm$ 10.4 years, men : 8, women : 15). Anthropometric indices, nutrient intakes, and biochemical blood indices were measured before and after a 6-month nutrition education intervention. Anthropometric indices such as percent ideal body weight [PIBW (%)], body fat, body mass index (BMI), mid-arm circumference (MAC), mid-arm muscle circumference (MAMC), and calculated arm muscle area (CAMA) of subjects were within the normal range and not changed by nutrition education. Subjective global assessment (SGA) was significantly increased (p < 0.05) after nutrition education. Intake of total energy, carbohydrate, lipid, Ca, and vitamin B1 was increased significantly (p < 0.05) but intake of phosphorus, potassium, and sodium was decreased (p < 0.05). The serum concentrations of albumin, total protein, and Ca were significantly increased (p < 0.05), but levels of P and K were decreased (p < 0.05) after the intervention. These findings suggest that nutrition education for HD patients can be effective for positively changing nutrient intakes, leading to improvements in blood indices and nutritional status.

As various metabolic alterations develope in uremic patients. their diets need to be restricted, Furthermore medical complications with accompanying anorexia result in further complications and decrease in body strength. To assess the nutritional status of hemodialyzed patients we performed evaluation for dietary intake and protein catabolic rate(PCR) For 24 clinically stable male patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis dietary intake was estimated by 3-day food record method and PCR was calculated with blood urea nitrogen at pre and post hemodialysis. The results were as follows : 1) Average daily energy and protein intake were 26.7$\pm$5.1kcal/kg of body weight. 0.95$\pm$0.19 g/kg of body weight respectively. 2) Protein catabolic rate calculated from interdialysis blood urea nitrogen levels was 1.00$\pm$0.20g/kg of body weight. Protein catabolic rate was correlated with the amount of Protein intake(r=0.44 p<0.05) 3) Relative body weight(RBW) of the subjects was smaller than that of healthy man without hemodialysis. Calorie and protein intake and protein catabolic rate were significantly different (p<0.05) between patients with lower RBW(<90% of ideal body weight) and those with normal RBW(90~110% of ideal body weight) and those with normal RBW(90~110% of iedal body weight) 4) The duration of hemodialysis did not have a significant effect on the nutritional status of the subjects.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the levels of resilience, depression, and self-esteem of hemodialysis(HD) patients, and to find out the factors influencing resilience. Methods: The subjects of this descriptive correlational study was 83 outpatients in H hospital in Seoul, Korea, who receive hemodialysis regularly. Data was analyzed by SPSS/WIN 18.0 program. Results: The resilience of HD patients were statistically different by gender, job, economical state, most supportive person, and recent condition. Self-esteem had positive correlation, while depression had moderate negative correlation with the resilience of HD patients. In regression analysis, depression had significant explanation power, which accounted for 25.4% of the resilience. Conclusion: The results of this study provide basic data for developing a resilience promoting program. Since health-related conditions of HD patients affect their levels of resilience, individualized assessment and management of complications are necessary. Also, as the resilience is related to family support, activating support groups for HD patients and their spouses would be helpful to promote their resilience.

Purpose: To determine the effects of 10 % lidocaine spray and aroma hand massage on pain, anxiety, blood pressure, and pulse during arteriovenous (AV) fistula needling in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design. Forty HD patients were assigned to either 10 % lidocaine spray group (n=21) or aroma massage group (n=19). 10 % lidocaine was sprayed 3 times around AV fistula 10 minutes before. Aroma hand massage was performed for 5 minutes with fluids containing 2 % of lavender, peppermint, and geranium concentrate mixture. Pain, anxiety, blood pressure, and pulse were measured during AV fistula needling without any intervention on the first week and during interventions on the second week. Data were analyzed with ${\chi}^2$ test, Fisher's exact test, t-test, paired t-test and MANCOVA. Results: Pain and anxiety were significantly decreased in both the lidocaine spray group and aroma massage group. Aroma hand massage was more effective to reduce pulse during AV fistula needling. Conclusion: The results suggest that 10% lidocaine spray and aroma hand massage may be effective to reduce pain, anxiety, and pulse during AV fistula needling in HD patients.
