  • Young black men(YBM) have the most severs levels of high blood pressure(HBP) and, in all reports but one, the lowest of HBP control of any age /sex /race group. To increase entry into care, remaining in care, and BP control for young(18-49 years) Black men, It is needed to review socio-demographic, medical characteristics, and behaviors(importance of and difficulty with HBP control behaviors, or worry about mdication) for experimental intervention study(educational- behavior strategies) of hypertensive urban young black men. The 204 participants had an average age of 38.8+7.0 years and an average educational level of $11.0{\pm}2.4$ years; only 23.1% were employed full- or part-time while 26% were on disability ; and 6% were married. Only 35.3% had an MD for HBP care and 37.3% had some form of health insurance. The average BP of those men currently being in care on medication(35.3%) was $148.2/95.1{\pm}19.5/11.3$ compared to those men not taking HBP care $153.7/99.1{\pm}14.0/9.8(p<.05)$. The average creatinine level was 1.3(excluding 3 marked elevations of 15.9, 9.6, and 7.7) for the 163 men consenting to have their blood drawn. Self-reported co-morbidity induded heart disease 7.8%, diabetes 8.9%, high cholesterol 18.2%, CVA 3.4%, alcohol and drug related problems 27.9% and 22.5% respectively. The kidney disease of those men currently being in care & on medication was 9.7 compared to those men not taking HBP care 0.8(p<.05). The problems of with sex life, physicl activity and dearly thinking of those men currently being in care & on medication was higher compared to those men not taking HBP care(p<.05). Questions of 'during the past month, on how many days did you have 5 or more drinks (bottles) of any alcoholic beverag?' and smoking of those men currently being in care & on medication was 18.1% and 72.2% compared to those men not taking HBP care 27.3 and 82.6%, respectively. HBP control behaviors was assessed with 1-5 point Likert subscales(5=extreme, 1-none at all), In general, th men reportd low levels of perceived psychological barrier to HBP care and control behaviors; importance of and difficulty with HBP control behaviors, or worry about mdication. For example, on a five point scale(1=none at all, 5=extreme), average ratings for perceived important and difficulty with BP care and behaviors were 2.8(SD=1.2) and 2.5(SD=1.1). Average ratings for perceived benefit with BP care and behaviors worry about medication of those men currently being in care on medication was 4.0(SD=0.9) and 2.2(SD=1.1) compared to those men not taking HBP care 3.6(SD=0.8), 2.8 (SD=1.6) respectively(p<.05). These data support the need for educational-behavioral strategies of community health nurse to improve high blood pressure control in this high risk group through perceived barriers to treatment, health care skills and use of resources, and social support.

  • Searching for the clinical effects of colloid solutions that used to increasing the oncotic pressure of priming solutions at the cardiopulmonary bypass, 29 patients [who were diagnosised as simple VSD around 10kg of body weight and scheduled to be operated from June 1990 to December 1990 at Sejong General Hospital] were divided randomly and prospectively to the two groups: A group [15] was received 4gm% albumin as addition to the priming solutions and B Group [14] the same amount of Ringer`s lactated solution. 34 clinical parameters [Body weight, sex, age, body surface area, Qp/Qs, pulmonary arterial pressure, cardiopulmonary bypass time, anesthetic time, intraoperatively infused crystalloid and colloid amount, hemoglobin, hematocrit, serum sodium concentration, serum osmolarity, urine osmolarity, urine specific gravity, serum concentration, serum osmolarity, urine osmolarity, urine specific gravity, serum protein, serum albumin concentration, urine output, central venous pressure, postoperatively infused colloid amount, immedediate post-operative peak inspiratory pressure, cardiac index, blood pressure and pump flow during cardiopulmonary bypass, inotro-pic assist, diuretics, extubation period, total drain amount, duration of ICU] were measured and compaired between the two groups. There were no differences of preoperative and operative clinical parameters. And postoper-atively, practically there were no nearly differences at the clinical outcomes between the two groups, but some parameters [cardiac index, PIP, BP and pumpflow during CPB, etc] contributed to being preferable to the Group A at certain times [P<0.05]. Conclusively, it might be thought that the priming solution of cardiopulmonary bypass added by colloid solution had some beneficial effects on the patients, especially younger and associated with complex anomaly to be expected taken longer time of cardiopulmonary bypass, and more studies about the neonatal and complex anomaly cases were needed in that points.

  • Purpose: This study was performed to analyze the characteristics and effect sizes of intervention studies on foot-reflexo-massage applied to cancer patients. Methods: For meta-analysis, a total of 159 studies were retrieved from search engines such as RISS, nanet, KISS, richis and KoreaMed. 16 studies published from 1990 to 2010 were selected based on the inclusion criteria. The data were analyzed with the RevMan 5.0 program of Cochrane library. Results: 1) The mean score of 1 implement time on foot-reflexo-massage was 25.62 minutes, the average number of days was 4.12 days, and the total number of average intervention frequency was 4.25 times. 2) Intervention studies on foot-reflexo-massage included 9 studies on anxiety (56.3%), 7 for pain (43.8%), 5 for BP/pulse (31.3%), 5 for fatigue (31.3%), 3 for nausea/vomiting (18.8%), 3 for sleep satisfaction (18.8%), and 2 for depression (12.5%). 3) The effect sizes of the intervention studies that showed higher effect size were in order, anxiety (d=-1.76), fatigue (d=-1.43), depression (d=-1.03), nausea and vomiting (d=-0.83), pain (d=-0.77), pulse rate (d=-0.61), blood pressure (d=-0.55), and sleep satisfaction (d=0.43). Conclusion: This study suggests that foot-reflexo-massage can increase sleep satisfaction, whereas decreasing blood pressure, pulse rate, anxiety, fatigue, depression, nausea, vomiting and pain.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate correlations in vital sign changes, the severity of pain, signs of complications, and the duration of sandbag management in order to suggest a standardized practice related to sandbag management in children with Nephrotic Syndrome(NS). Method: From October 2000 to May 2001, seventy children with NS who underwent kidney biopsy were interviewed at one hospital in Seoul Korea, and participated in this study. Result: 1) The average sandbag applying time after kidney biopsy was 18.1 hours. 2) Systolic blood pressure and respiration increased until 15 minutes after kidney biopsy, after then, they decreased signifi- cantly (systolic BP, p= .006; respiration, p= .029). However, no significant changes were noted in diastolic blood pressure and pulse. 3) Pain was reported minimal for 1 hour after kidney biopsy. The severity of pain increased until 12 hours after the procedure, then, decreased significantly(p= .0001). 4) Reported complications were hematuria (74.7%) and abnormal sonogram (32.9%). No apparent bleeding on the biopsy region was reported in any children. Conclusion: From these findings, it is possible to change the protocols of the duration of absolute bed rest time and sandbag application management shortly after kidney biopsy. But it is needed to study the fit protocols for kidney biopsy. Several implications in nursing practice are suggested. 1) Replicated studies for more participants are needed. 2) Further research on the effect of sandbag application after kidney biopsy is required. 3) The best duration of sandbag application management after kidney biopsy need to be investigated.

  • Purpose: This research was done to compare the pain relief effects of various nursing interventions, such as cold therapy, attention diversion and 10% Lidocaine spray during arteriovenous fistula needling for patients on hemodialysis, and also to identify and develop more effective nursing interventions for pain relief in these patients. Methods: This research was conducted from October 1, 2010 to January 31, 2011 with 8 hemodialysis patients, who were on regular dialysis (3 times a week) at K University Hospital in Seoul and had an arteriovenous fistula within the past 3 months. Each patient received the three nursing interventions (cold therapy, attention diversion and 10% Lidocaine spray therapy) prior to the arteriovenous fistula needling and applied in turn with the series being repeated 4 times. After each intervention, physiologic indexes, subjective and objective pain were measured at the time of needling. ANOVA was used with SPSS/WIN 12.0 to analyze pain scores and comparison of physiologic indexes (BP, pulse). Results: No significant differences were found for subjective pain (p=.574), objective pain (p=.562) and total pain (p=.506) among the 3 interventions. Systolic blood pressure (p=.689), diastolic blood pressure (p=.969) and pulse (p=.980) also showed no significant difference among the 3 interventions. Conclusion: These 3 interventions are all possible for pain relief during arteriovenous fistula needling for these patients. However, the only interventions that nurses can do independently are cold therapy and attention diversion so we recommend that these nursing interventions be used.

  • 목 적 : 소아기의 비만은 성인기의 비만여부와 상관없이 대사증후군과 심근경색증의 유병률을 높이는 것으로 알려져 있으며 또한, 직접적인 원인으로 작용할 수 있다고 보고되었다. 그리고, hs-CRP은 장래의 심근경색을 예측할 수 있는 인자이며 특히 비만시에 유의하게 증가되는 것으로 보여 성인에서는 임상적으로 유용하게 쓰이기 시작하였으나, 소아에서의 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 저자는 소아 비만에서의 hs-CRP의 증가에 대해 조사하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 14세의 소년들을 28명의 비만아군(BMI $29.61{\pm}3.29kg/m^2$)과 93명의 대조군(BMI $18.99{\pm}2.21kg/m^2$)으로 선정하여 연구를 시행하였다. 혈중 CRP 농도는 the high sensitive latex turbidimetric immunoassay를 사용하여 측정하였으며 급성 감염의 영향을 배제하기 위해 측정값이 0.3 mg/dL 미만인 경우만을 실험대상으로 채택하였다. 비만아군과 대조군에 대해서 각각의 hs-CRP의 분포를 알아보았으며 hs-CRP와 BMI, 혈압, 혈중 지질 농도의 연관성에 대해 분석하였다. 결 과 : hs-CRP 농도는 비만아군이 대조군에 비해 통계학적으로 유의하게 높은 측정값을 보였다($0.104{\pm}0.075$ vs. $0.054{\pm}0.005mg/dL$). 비만아군은 대조군에 비해 BMI, 수축기혈압, 이완기혈압, apolipoprotein B, 죽종형성지수와 triglyceride에서 높은 결과치를 나타내었다. 단순회귀분석상에서 hs-CRP는 BMI, 이완기혈압, apolipoprotein E, 죽종형성지수, TG와 통계학적으로 유의한 연관성을 나타내었으나, 다중회귀분석상에서는 BMI와 apolipoprotein E만이 강력한 연관성을 보여주었다. 결 론 : 비만아군은 대조군에 비해 혈중 hs-CRP가 높게 나타났으며 더불어 혈압의 상승과 지질대사이상을 동반하는 경향이 증가함을 보여주었다. 그리고, hs-CRP는 BMI와 apolipoprotein E와 강력한 연관성을 나타내었다. 이 결과들은 비만과 관련된 대사증후군이 소아시기에 이미 시작될 수 있음을 시사하는 것으로 볼 수 있다.

  • Given that single blockade with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) can achieve only partial and undurable suppression of the Renin Angiotensin System (RAS), it has been hypothesized that dual blockage would be more beneficial in the management of blood pressure (BP) reduction and prevention of progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD) than either agent alone. Thus, it has been suggested that the combination of an ACEI and an ARB might provide renal benefits to hypertensive patients over and above BP reduction. However, this might also expose patients to additive or synergistic side effects. We attempted to conduct a systematic review to evaluate the benefits and harms of combination therapy in hypertensive patients with or without kidney diseases. MEDLINE and KoreaMed were searched for relevant randomized clinical trials in adult hypertensive patients with or without diabetes (restricted to 1997, limited to trials published in English). Results were summarized using the random-effects model, and between-studies heterogeneity was estimated with $I^2$. A final analysis of ten trials (23,928 patients) revealed that the combination of an ACEI and an ARB reduced blood pressure (SBP/DBP) by 3.95/2.02 mmHg (95% confidence interval [CI], -4.38 to -3.53/-2.33 to -1.71) compared with ACEI monotherapy, and 2.83/2.64 mmHg (95% CI, -3.25 to -2.41/-4.95 to -0.33) compared with ARB monotherapy. Eight trials (391 patients) demonstrated a significant reduction in 24h-proteinuria (weighted mean difference, 0.16 g/day, 95% CI, -0.26-0.05), but they did not translate into an improvement in GFR. Tests for heterogeneity showed no difference in effect among the studies. The combination therapy reduced proteinuria by 30% (95% CI, 23% to 37%) and 39% (95% CI, 31% to 48%) compared with ACEI monotherapy and ARB monotherapy, respectively. However, in patients who had proteinuria more than 0.5 g/day, the combination therapy failed to show significant reduction in urinary protein excretion. The current cumulative evidence suggests that diabetic patients with proteinuria on dual RAS blockade have an increase risk of adverse events such as hyperkalemia, hypotension, and so on, compared with ACEI or ARB alone. It is, therefore, proposed that the combination therapy should not be routinely used for the treatment of hypertension with or without compelling indications.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze effects of a community-based case management program for clients with hypertension living in the community. Methods: The research design was a one group pre and post-test design with 30 participants with hypertension who agreed to participate in the 8-12 week case management program provided by case managers from the National Health Insurance Corporation in 2002. Data were collected three times, before and after the case management services, and 6 months later. Outcomes included changes in blood pressure, knowledge of hypertension and daily life practices, including alcohol consumption, smoking, exercise, and medication adherence. Results: Repeated-measures ANOVA and post-hoc tests of means revealed significant differences before and after service for systolic blood pressure, daily life practices (monitoring body weight and BP, low salt and cholesterol and high vegetable diet, and stress-relief practices), and exercise. The goal for medication adherence was attained after service. Significant improvements from baseline to 6 months after service were observed in measures of salt and vegetables in diet. There were no significant differences on hypertension knowledge, alcohol consumption or smoking behavior between before service and after, and at 6 months. Conclusion: The findings provide preliminary evidence that case management intervention can have positive outcomes on BP control, daily life practices, exercise, and medication adherence for clients with hypertension. However, additional interventions are needed to sustain long-term effects.

  • 본 조사는 성남지역 노인들을 대상으로 한 건강실태조사를 통해서 노인의 건강실태 및 문제점을 알아내고, 그 결과를 노인을 위한 건강증진 프로그램을 계획할 때 이용될 수 있도록 하기 위해서 성남시 관할 노인정의 노인을 대상으로 신체계측 조사, 체지방량조사, 성인병과 관련된 혈압 및 혈액검사를 실시하였다. 본 조사 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 본 조사 대상자들의 평균 신장 및 체중은 이전의 연구 결과들에서 보고된 우리나라 남녀 노인들의 평균 신장 및 체중 측정치 범위였다. 2. 남자대상자들의 평균 체지방률이 27.7%, 여자 대상자들의 체지방률이 36.4%로서, 남녀 모두에서 비만 기준치보다 높게 나타났으며, 여자 대상자들의 비만도가 남자 대상자들에 비해 높았다. 3. 대상자들의 수축기 혈압 및 이완기 혈압의 평균은 각각 153.5mmHg와 86.7mmHg로써 평균 수축기 혈압은 고혈압 판정 기준치인 140mmHg보다 높았으며, 평균 이완기 혈압은 기준치인 90mm Hg보다 다소 낮았는데, 남녀간에 유의적인 차이는 보이지 않았다. 4. 대상자들의 식후 혈당치는 평균 119.9mg/㎗로서 남녀간의 차이는 보이지 않았고, 당뇨병진단시 기준인 식후 혈당치 140mg/㎗보다는 낮았다. 5. 대상자들의 혈청 GPT치의 평균은 남자가 19.4 unit, 여자가 18.2 unit로서 정상치인 32unit 이하에 해당되었고 남녀간 유의적인 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 6. 대상자들의 혈청 총 콜레스테롤 치의 평균은 남자가 186.0 mg/㎗, 여자가 206.6mg/㎗로서 두 집단의 평균치는 정상치에 해당되었고, 남녀 간에 유의적인 차이를 보여 여자가 남자보다 높은 혈청콜레스테롤 수치를 나타내었다. 7. 대상자들의 혈청 알부민 치의 평균은 남자와 여자에서 똑같이 4.8 g/㎗로서 정상치에 해당되었으며, 남녀간의 차이를 보이지 않았다. 8. 조사 대상자들의 체방률의 분포를 보면 남녀 모두에서 비만 기준치보다 높은 범위에서 빈도가 높게 나타났고, 수축기 혈압과 이완기 혈압의 분포는 고혈압 범위인 노인들이 각각 전체의 69% 와 39%로 나타났다. 혈당은 정상치에 해당되는 노인이 전체의 79%로 나타났고, 혈청 총콜레스테롤치는 정상치 이상의 노인들이 전체의 42% 를 차지하였는데, 여자들이 남자들에 비해 기준치보다 높은 혈청 콜레스테롤치를 나타낸 경우가 많았다. GPT는 전체의 92%에서 정상치보다 낮은 수치를 보였고, 혈청 알부민은 전체 대상자의 68%가 정상치에 해당하였다. 9. 연령은 신장, 체중, 이완기 혈압, 혈당, GTP 및 알부민과 음의 상관관계를 나타냈고, 체중 은 신장, 체지방량, 수축기 및 이완기 혈압, 혈당, GTP및 알부민과 양의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 신장은 체지방량 및 혈청 콜레스테롤과는 음의 상관관계를, 이완기 혈압과는 양의 상관관계를 나타냈다. 수축기 혈압은 이완기 혈압과 혈당수치와 양의 상관관계를 나타내었고, 혈당은 GTP와 양의 상관관계를, 혈청 콜레스테롤은 알부민과 양의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 본 연구 결과에서 노인 대상자들의 체지방량 및 수축기혈압의 평균은 기준치보다 높았고 혈당, GPT,혈청 총 콜레스테롤, 혈청 알부민 농도의 평균은 정상치에 해당되었다. 그러나 체지방량, 혈청 총 콜레스테롤 및 GTP 농도에서는 조사대상자의 개인별 차이는 물론이고, 성별 및 연령대별로 차이가 나타났고, 각 측정치간에 상호관계가 존재하였음이 나타났음을 고려해볼 때, 지역사회 노인의 성별, 연령별 특성에 맞는 노인 건강관리 프로그램의 개발 및 실시가 요구되었다. 이를 위해 각 지역의 관청이나 보건소 등이 중심이 되어 지역 특성에 맞는 영양교육과 건강 및 급식관리를 포함한 노인복지프로그램을 개발하여 실시함으로써 우리나라 노인의 건강 및 영양상태를 향상시킬 수 있으리라 사료된다.
