This study is to evaluate the decubitus ulcer healing effect of occlusive dressing with hydrocolloid and traditional dry dressing for home care nursing clients. Study design was quasi-experimental pre-post test design. Control group(15 person) was treated decubitus wound with traditional dry gauze dressing, and experimental group(17 persons) was treated decubitus ulcer with occlusive dressing with hydrocolloid and calcium alginate(17 persons). Study period was from 8/1/97 to 12/31/97. Subject subjects was 17 males and 15 females with 2nd phase over decubitus ulcer aged 30 to 70 who have been registered as home care nursing clients in Nurse's Association in Seoul city. Outcome variables were stages, size of decubitus ulcer, pain at dressing time and exudate amount. Study result as follows. Occlusive dressing with hydrocolloid was superior to traditional gauze dressing decreasing ulcer size and phase, and shortening treatment period. Dressing change of occlusive dressing was easier than that of traditional gauze dressing. In conclusion, occlusive dressing was recommended to treat decubitus ulcer in home care patients even if hydrocolloid is expensive to gauze dressing because of treatment effect and easeness of dressing.

근래의 호스피스 완화 서비스에 대한 국가의 관심과 지원 정책은 매우 고무적이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 호스피스 완화 의료의 정착과 발전이라는 명목을 가지고 우리는 호스피스 완화간호와 관련된 우리 주위의 현실에 비판과 반영의 눈으로 돌아볼 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 호스피스 철학에 부합되는 완화 간호 모델을 찾아내어 생의 마지막 단계에 있는 사람과 가족의 완화 간호에 적합한 모델인가를 심사하는 것은 목적으로 하였다. 소개되고 심사된 모델은 Eagan, Labyak의 호스피스 경험 모델과 Byock의 삶의 완결(life completion)을 위한 성장 모델이었다. 호스피스 경험 모델은 생의 마지막 단계에 있는 환자와 가족의 경험과 가치관에 근거한 임종 간호 모델로서 개개인의 경험의 독특성을 인정하며 환자 가족 개개인의 다 영역의 역동성과 상호작용적 관련성과 다 영역적 특성을 가진 개개인의 상호 관계성을 인정한다. 또한, 생의 마지막 단계에서도 다 영역적 상호 관계성은 긍정적인 성장과 발달을 만들 수 있음을 인정한다. 이 모델은 생의 마지막 단계에 있는 개인과 가족의 개개인 요구에 부합된 삶의 질 개선, 고통 제거, 삶의 완결, 좋은 죽음을 이끄는 완화 간호를 이끌 수 있다고 평가되었다. Byock의 성장 모델은 임종의 시기를 마지막 삶의 발달 단계로 보았다. 이 모델은 생의 마지막 단계에 있는 개인과 가족을 삶의 완결의 과정을 경험할 수 있는 존재로 보았다. 모델은 세속적인 일/사회적인 일/개인적인 관계들/개인 내재적인 영역/초월적 영역들의 세부 항목으로 이루어진 이정표와 발달 과업을 포함한다. 이 모델에서는 전문 의료인이 이정표 및 과업을 이용하여 성장의 주체의 변화를 얼마나 잘 파악하여 내고 도와주는 가가 환자 및 가족의 성장의 열쇠가 되며 한 인간이 인간 실존 안에서 삶을 마칠 수 있게 만드는 결과를 낼 수 있다.그 결과 개인은 평화와 안녕 속에서 삶을 마감할 수 있다. 이 두 모델은 호스피스 철학에 부합되는 완화 간호의 모델로 고려되었다.

The purpose of this paper is to describe the transition of a 1,100 beds teritary hospital from 50% softcopy operation to full PACS operation. For the past 2 years, radiologists and clinicians have been using PACS to provide softcopy services to the outpatient clinics and inpatient wards of orthopedics surgery, neurosurgery and neurology as well as emergency room, surgical intensive care unit, medical intensive unit, pediatrics intensive care unit and neonatal intensive care unit. The examinations requested by these departments account for about 50% of hospital's radiological exams. In September 1996, we began the second phase of PACS implementation and installed additional workstations (102) in the remaining wards and clinics, interfaced to PACS additional imaging modalites, and increased the capacity of both the image server (256 Gbytes) and optical juke boxes (3 Tbytes). As of January 1997, we are in the final phase of moving away from conventional film system to full PACS operation.

Purpose: This study compared factors related to fear of falling among women in the early phase of old age based on hand grip strength. Methods: Researchers obtained data of 1,071 women who had participated in the 4th Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging. Data were analyzed using multiple regression analysis. Results: In both groups, fear of falling was positively correlated with falling experience within two years, osteoarthritis-related leg pain, depression, and instrumental daily life abilities; however, self-rated health was negatively correlated. In the low hand grip strength group, self-rated health, osteoarthritis-related leg pain, and hand grip strength accounted for 21.3% of the variance regarding fear of falling. In the normal hand grip strength group, age, self-rated health, fall experience within two years, osteoarthritis-related leg pain, and depression significantly accounted for 16.6% of the variance regarding fear of falling. Conclusion: In applying interventions to prevent falling in women in the early phase of old age, health care workers must verify if women have low hand grip strength and determine whether to focus on fitness improvement through exercise interventions or consider psychological interventions for depression.

This study aimed to analyze whether the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic affected the characteristics of first-visit patients with peripheral facial palsy (PFP) and observe changes in their characteristics. This study analyzed the electronic medical records of 2,310 first-visit patients with PFP who visited the Facial Palsy Center, Kyung Hee University Korean Medicine Hospital from January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2021, in terms of demographic characteristics, disease phase, residence locations, hospital visit route, and patient care. During COVID-19, the proportion of acute patients increased by 5.3%, the proportion of visits by residents in Seoul increased by 3.8%, and the proportion of patients receiving only outpatient treatments increased by 12.8%. Significant relationships were present between the presence of the COVID-19 pandemic and the number of patients by disease phase (p = 0.043), residence locations (p = 0.003), and patient care (p = 0.003). Thus, several differences in the characteristics of first-visit patients with PFP visiting a Korean medicine hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of demographic characteristics, disease phase, residence locations, and patient care.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the differences in terms of services and cost between CVA without typical diseases (Group I), and CVA with typical diseases (Group II), in their Hospital-based home health care. Method: The subjects of this study were 308 CVA patients who used home care nursing during the second phase demonstration project of their hospital-based home health care. Results: The results of the study was as follows 1. Group II had more home visit (15.3/12.7) (p>0.05), and cases of death when home care (16.8/11.4) (p<0.05). 2. Group II needed more services than Group I such as bladder irrigation, skin care, bed sore care, glycerin enema, finger enema, lung care, urine sugar test, monitoring and surveillance of fluid infusion and R.O.M exercise (p<0.05). 3. The variables that showed statistical significance in the regression analysis were family style, OPD visit, level of consciousness, patient's state on termination of home care, and some extend of home health care services (R2=0.373, 0.205). Conclusion: Home nursing care needs to be planned by severity in Hospital-based home health care for CVA patients.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the current status of and seek for measures to activate Korean medicine in stroke care. Methods: This is an e-mail survey targeting the members of Korean medical doctors registered at the association of Korean medicine. The project team of the society of stroke on Korean medicine for the development of clinical practice guideline for stroke has devised the items for the questionnaire. The survey was conducted for 15 days in November 2016. Results: The percentage of the respondents who have treated patients with stroke for the past month was 11.2% in the acute phase, 20.5% in the convalescent phase, and 32.4% in the chronic phase. Approximately 80% of the respondents answered they had a decrease in the number of patients compared to 10 years ago, regardless of the stroke phase. Most of the respondents were using Western medicine together with traditional Korean medicine for physical examination. Acupuncture and herbal medicine were the main therapeutic interventions. The two measures chosen by the most respondents to activate the Korean medicine usage for stroke care were the expansion of the insurance coverage (34.9%) and the generation of evidence on the effectiveness of traditional Korean medicine (25.1%) Conclusion: It is necessary to actively show the role of the Korean medicine through the establishment of the evidence on the effectiveness of Korean medicine and the promotion based on the evidence. In addition, optimal treatment methods should be derived based on the traditional knowledge and modern scientific research and the methods should be educated to every Korean medical clinics and hospitals so that they can be implemented in clinical practice. At the same time, the government should provide policy support to ensure that the optimal treatment can be timely and appropriately implemented.
