The main purpose of this study is to examine the effect of patient-centered communication of doctor(facilitating factor, inhibition factor) on patient participation(behavioral participation, emotional participation, informational participation). Concretely, it is confirmed where there are effects of patient-centered communication of doctor to patient participation and whether there are moderating effects of trust between patient-centered communication of doctor and patient participation. In domestic general hospital, 301 samples were for this analysis collected and tested by factor analysis and moderating regression analysis. As a result of this study is as followings. First, it is confirmed that communication facilitating factor have influences on patient participation positively and communication inhibition factor have no influences on patient participation. Second, there are moderating effects of trust between facilitating factor and emotional participation, between facilitating factor and informational participation. Especially, in higher level group of trust, it is confirmed that facilitating factor more influence on emotional participation and informational participation. On the basis of these study results, I suggested theoretical and practical implication for the patient-centered communication and successful medical service.

The increase in medical expenses for convalescent hospitals is increasing abnormally, which puts enormous burden on the National health insurance finances. This is a phenomenon that has been associated with the social phenomenon of rapid aging. The fact that the convalescent hospitals are paid the fixed amount per day for hospitalization became the incentive for some hospitals to use the patients as means of making money. And these hospitals intend to get regular care or take medicines at other hospitals in order to reduce medical expenses, even when the medical fee is paid. In order to prevent such financial leaks, the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service adjusted the patient group for inpatients in a hospital with the above behavior, and then cut the cost of medical care benefits. However, Above decision was canceled by the court on the grounds that there was no basis rule. However, based on the above case, I think that it can be an opportunity to draw up the problem and to improve of the Medical Fee System of hospital. The modified medical fee system can strengthen the medical function of the convalescent hospital. In addition, it seems reasonable to exclude admission for "physically disabled group". Even if admission is allowed for the physically disabled group due to social needs, it should be excluded from the National health insurance for the fianacial soundness and the sustainability of the system.

효율적인 술후 통증치료를 위해서는 통증치료의 방법과 환자관리면을 동시에 고려하여야 한다. 방법은 상술한 바와 갈이 술후 통증기전에 부합되는 방법들이 예방적으로 적용되어야 하고 아울러 환자 개개인에 맞는 지속적인 균형제통이 시행되어야 한다. 그리고 환자관리면에서는 환자의 통증을 자주 평가하고 그에 동반된 처치 및 간호업무가 수반되어야 한다. 그러므로 술후 통증관리는 진통제에 대한 전문지식을 갖춘 의료인이 적합한 제통방법을 지속적으로 시행하여야 하는데 그러기 위해서는 효율적인 조직체제가 필요하다. 구미각국에서는 여러해 전부터 술후 통증관리가 통증관리센터란 체제하에서 효과적인 급성 통증치료실로 운영되어져 왔으며 현재는 병원의 중심센타로 확립된 실정이다. 우리나라도 국민의료보험이 도입된지 17년이 지났고 환자 위주의 병원환경이 마련되어야 한다는 데에는 대다수의 국민들로부터 공감대가 형성된 현시점에서 이제는 통증관리센터가 설립되어야 한다고 생각된다. 이러한 제안이 기정사실화 되기까지는 많은 논의와 임상결과에 대한 자료들이 있어야 하겠지만 무엇보다도 마취과 의사들의 술후통증관리에 대한 지속적인 관심과 연구가 뒷바침되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

Stenosis of the central veins is a common complication in hemodialysis patients. However, cerebral venous hypertension and neurological symptoms caused by central vein stenosis are relatively rare. We present a rare case of cerebral venous hypertension in a 63-year-old male who showed venous reflux into the dural sinuses due to central venous stenosis on time-of-flight MR angiography. After management for central venous stenosis, the venous reflux disappeared.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of implementation of the healthcare accreditation system on patient safety, quality of medical care, organization culture and management performance of convalescent hospitals. Ten hospitals were selected at random from among 36 convalescent hospitals in Daegu that had obtained accreditation until September 2015. To accomplish this, hospital staff were surveyed from 15 February to 25 March, 2016 using a questionnaire with 253 objects. We investigated how the healthcare accreditation system has influenced patient safety, service quality, organization culture and performance of hospital management. The change in the treatment support system showed the highest score of 3.93 among quality change and medical service items, while that of personnel source culture showed the highest score of 3.78 points among organization culture items, and that of internal process view, study and growth view showed the highest score of 3.71 among management performance items. Multiple regression analysis revealed that factors positively changing hospital management performance were nurses, employees and managers, basic value systems, organization culture, personnel source culture, open system culture, hierarchical culture, and production oriented culture. The quality of patient safety and medical care was positively influenced by changes in the quality of convalescent hospitals after implementation of the healthcare accreditation system. However, among the four types of organizational culture, the financial perspective was relatively low compared to other perspectives.

This study explored the experience of clinical nurses caring for foreign wives in Korea. A narrative study approach within the qualitative research paradigm was applied in this study. The data were collected using individual in-depth interviews with 10 clinical nurses who had at least 5 years working experiences caring for foreign wives and their children in the Women and Children's clinical setting. The narrative stories of the clinical nurses were analyzed in the frame of culture-bounded nursing care. In the culture-bounded nursing care, ethnocentric viewpoints, acceptable viewpoints, and culture-based viewpoints were identified within the time frame. Significantly, the narrator identified herself as a therapeutic caregiver in the culture-based viewpoints providing tailored caregiving for foreign wives. This study requires cultural sensitivity of nurses who care for the people with different cultural backgrounds. Self-awareness would be the starting point to reach culturally competent nursing care.

Background: For effective and systematic management of patients in the emergency department(ED), the data on patient arrival and status in ED of Yeungnam University Hospital were evaluated. Materials and Methods: During the seven days from Apr. 1 to Apr. 7, 1998, the general patient information such as onset time and place, factors associated with transportation, causes of admission, cared department and patient disposition were recorded. Results: Total of 464 patients visited the ED during the seven days, and the mean number of patients per day was 66.3. Male to female ratio was 1:0.71. Daily staying patients were 17.3, and 83.6 patients were cared totally each day. The methods of transportation and distribution of patients according to region and event were as follows: visit by walk(57.3%). transportation by car(58.0%), place of event in residence(85.3%), regional distribution in Taegu(81.5%), and direct visit(97.4%). Cause of admission due to diseases was 74.6%. The percentages of departments which cared the patients were internal medicine 26.6%, pediatrics 16.8%, orthopedics 8.6%, neurology 8.2%, neurosurgery 7.8% and other department including emergency medicine 8.2%, respectively. Patient dispositions were admission 38.4%, discharge 61.0% and death on arrival(DOA) 0.6%, but referred patient-to-another-hospital was zero. Conclusion: Improvements in several aspects of ED's caring system such as "fast tracking" system and reinforcement of disease and trauma caring system, would be helpful for effective management of emergency patients.

Now, Korean health technology and health service is proud to be world class one at a level of not falling behind anywhere in the world. However, this health service has been provided, centering on hospital or medical staff, not patient so far. And there is a tendency to gradually change into patient-centered health service. According to the results of survey performed by Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs, it was reported that, as of 2016, 30% or more of inpatients were not sufficiently given information relating to hospital rounds, and in particular, 50% or more of inpatients in their twenties to thirties expressed discontent, and approximately 17% of inpatients in their seventies and beyond expressed discontent. In the light of these data, especially inpatients in their twenties to thirties want information relating to hospital rounds and the like. And taking into consideration that they are characterized by being accustomed to using a smartphone, it is intended to design and implement a hospital rounds information smartphone application. Now, in some of medium and large hospitals, information about hospital is provided through smartphone application. However, the main purpose is hospital information or outpatient's appointment to see a doctor and so on. Even in case of providing information about hospital rounds, only information about approximate time to make rounds is provided. This paper is intended to design and implement hospital rounds information system making it possible to check their turn when rounds are made by utilizing NFC function in smart phone.
