A 25 years old male patient with traumatic aneurysm of descending thoracic aorta was treated successfully. He was admitted due to blunt trauma to the chest wall as falling down into water. He has been treated with closed thoracotomy and close observation. After a month simple chest film showed abnormal mass shadow around the aortic knob. Aortogram revealed aneurysm of descending thoracic aorta. Aneurysm was resected and replaced with woven Dacron graft with aid of Gotts shunt. His postoperative course was uneventful.

This study is to develop the prediction model for the HIC15 in frontal vehicle crash tests. The 28 frontal impact test results of the MY2019 and MY2020 USNCAP are utilized. The metrics for evaluating the crash pulse severity such as moving average acceleration, Restraint Quotient (RQ) and ride-down efficiency are reviewed to find out whether the metrics can predict the HIC15. It is observed that the R² values based on the linear regression of all pairs between the existing metrics and the occupant injuries such as the HIC15, 3 ms chest g's and chest deflection are very low. In this study, using the vehicle crash pulses, the linear regression model for estimating the HIC15 is developed. The vehicle crash pulse is splitted seven 10 ms intervals in 70 ms after impact for extracting the average accelerations in each intervals. The prediction model can predict effectively not only the HIC15 but also the maximum head g's, chest deflection and 3 ms chest g's of 13 vehicles out of 28 vehicles.

본 연구는 패드가 부착된 장갑의 유용성에 대해 파악함으로써 효과적인 심폐소생술을 제시하고자 연구를 시행하였다. 연구대상 및 자료수집은 G광역시에 위치해 있는 G대학교의 심폐소생술 강의를 이수한 응급구조과 대학생 50명을 대상으로 2019년 4월 1일부터 2019년 4월 30일까지 시행하였으며, SPSS /WIN 23.0 Program을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과, 패드부착장갑 착용 전보다 착용 후가 가슴압박총점수, 가슴압박수, 가슴이완율, 손위치정확도, 압박속도 영역에서 심폐소생술 질이 더 높게 나타남에 따라 패드부착장갑의 착용이 기존의 맨 손 심폐소생술보다 가슴압박질을 더 향상시키는 것으로 파악할 수 있었다. 이는 향후 심폐소생술 교육의 기초자료로 활용 및 실무 중심 프로그램을 마련에 기여할 것으로 사료된다.

이 연구의 목적은 대학생을 대상으로 심폐소생술 마네킹을 사용하여 인공호흡과 흉부 압박의 정확도를 분석하였다. 첫째, 가슴압박 횟수에서 실험대상자 A, F, H, I, J는 60회에서 63회로 각각 비슷한 횟수를 나타냈고, 기준보다 매우 낮았다. 실험대상자 B, D, E, G는 90회에서 91회로 나타나 정상범위를 유지하였다. 그런데 C는 119회로 다소 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 가슴압박 깊이는 58.60mm로 대부분 깊게 압박하였다. 실험대상자 C는 51mm로 정상에 근접하였고, 실험대상자 A~J는 55mm~62mm로 유의하게 높게 나타났다. 그 이유는 가슴압박의 경험이 전혀 없는 불안정한 심리상태와 자신감이 부족한 결과로 보인다. 셋째, 정확도에 있어서, 실험대상자 E는 12%로 나타나 정확도가 가장 낮았고, A~J는 33%~80%로 나타났다. 실험대상자 B는 95%의 정확도를 보였는데, 이는 D가 군 복무 중 이론 교육을 통하여, 가슴압박 지점을 정확하게 인지한 결과로 보인다.

All 10 cases of spontaneous rupture of esophagus had violent vomiting as precursor. 9 patients were male, 1 case was female. Chief complaints were chest pain and dyspnea. Chest P \ulcornerA and esophagogram were mainly used as confirm diagnostic tool. Perforation sites of all cases were at distal esophagus near the G-E junction. 6 cases were received primary repair within 24 hrs, other cases were managed with surgical drainage after exclusion and diversion of esophagus. Empyema was the most frequent complication. Other complications were sepsis, pneumonia, leaking etc. Overall mortality rate was about 70.0%.

Esophageal leiomyoma is a very rare disease. We present a patient who underwent enucleation of esophageal leiomyoma through a left thoracotomy. The patient was suffered from substernal pain and chest discomfort for 4 months.The esophagogram revealed irregular ovoid smooth filling defect in just proximal portion of G-E junction with the normal mucosal folds. Chest CT demonstrated well-defined, polypoid tumor mass on the anterolateral wall of the distal esophagus. Esophagoscopy revealed normal intact mucosal patterns with swollen hard protruded tumor mass lesion from the just proximal portion of G-E junction. In June, 1993, patient underwent enucleation of esophageal leiomyoma through the left thoracotomy. A horseshoe and spiral shaped, whitish firm tumor mass was noted on the distal esophagus, and the tumor mass was enucleated by blunt dissection carefully. The esophageal leiomyoma was confirmed with histopathological examination. The postoperative course was smooth and uneventful.

From March 1986 to June 1990, the percutaneous Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy[FNAB] of 102 thoracic lesions were performed with Westcott needle [slotted 20G or 22G thin needle], for the purpose of identifying and diagnosing thoracic lesions. There were 94 lung lesions [67 malignant tumors, 27 benign lesions] and 8 mediastinal and chest wall lesions. The results of FNAB were compared with sputum cytology and bronchoscopic examinations. The sputum cytologic examinations were performed in 54 cases of malignant lung tumor and the malignant cell was found at the 18 cases [33%]. We bronchoscopic examinations were performed in 24 cases and the malignant cell was found at the 12 cases [55%]. The positive diagnostic rate of malignancy was 100% by FNAB. Among them, 55 cases [82%] were diagnosed by cytologic examinations and 43 cases[64%] by both. The specific diagnoses for benign lung lesions in 15 cases[55%] and for mediastinal and chest well lesions in 5 cases[62%]. The 7 patients[6.9%] developed the pneumothorax and 5 of them required the treatment. Therefore, the FNAB of thoracic lesions may be a preferred diagnostic method because of its safety, simplicity and accuracy.

연구배경: 스테로이드는 천식의 장기적인 치료에 사용하는 약물로 치료효과는 기도에 대한 항염증작용을 통해 이루어지는 것으로 알려져 있다. fluticasone propionate(FP)는 치료효과가 크고 주로 폐에 국소적으로 작용하는 약물로서 beclomethasone dipropionate(BDP)에 비해 2배 정도의 역가를 가지고 있다고 알려져 있다. 이 연구를 통해 FP와 BDP의 치료효과를 비교하고자 하였다. 방 법: 50명의 천식환자를 대상으로 하여 연구를 진행하였다. 환자에게 무작위적으로 FP 혹은 BDP를 4주 동안 투여하였다. 처음 2주간의 Run-in period에는 $\beta_2$-기관지확장제반을 투여하였고 그 후 무작위적으로 FP 또는 BDP를 투여하였다. FP는 diskhaler를 이용하여 하루 2 회 $250{\mu}g$씩 총 $500{\mu}g$을 투여하였고, BDP는 reservoir dry-power device-RPD 를 이용하여 하루 2회 $400{\mu}g$씩 총 $800{\mu}g$을 투여하였다. Run-in period 및 치료 기간 종에 매일 아침과 저녁의 최고호기유량과 주간과 야간의 천식증상점수, 주간과 야간의 응급 & 기관지확장제 사용횟수 등을 측정하였다. $FEV_{1.0}$과 FVC는 치료시작전과 치료 후 2주 간격으로 3 회 측정하였다. 결 과: FP를 투여한 환자 중 3 명과 BDP를 투여한 환자 중 7명이 탈락되어, 총 40명의 천식환자를 대상으로 결과를 분석하였다. FP 및 BDP 투여 후에 아침과 저녁의 최고호기유량이 유의하게 증가하고, 최고호기유량의 일중변이는 유의하게 감소하였다. 폐기능 검사 결과 $FEV_{1.0}$은 FP를 투여한 군에서 증가하고, FVC는 양 군에서 모두 증가하지 않았다. 주간 및 야간의 천식증상 점수가 호전되고, 응급 $\beta_2$-기관지확장제 사용횟수는 유의하게 감소하였다. 그러나 두 군 사이의 치료효과에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 최고호기유량의 증가, 일중변이의 감소, 증상의 호전 및 응급 $\beta_2$-기관지확장제 사용횟수의 감소는 FP를 투여한 군에서 더 빨리 나타났다. 결 론: 천식환자에게 매일 FP $500{\mu}g$과 BDP $800{\mu}g$을 투여하였을 때, 두 군간의 치료효과는 유사하였다. 효과는 FP를 투여한 군에서 더 빨리 나타났고 부작용으로 치료를 중단한 경우는 없었다.

We have presented with the "A study on overexposure rate according to over-density in chest X-ray radiography(I)" last year. In this report, We could calculate the entrance skin dose from chest X-ray film density the formula $I_0=Ix/e^{-{\mu}x}{\times}mG$, (mG is Bucky factor) was used to deliver the skin dose. At that time, There was two problems that the Bucky factor from maker was not equal to field experience and the field size influenced on the Attenuation Rate. The experiment of Bucky factor was done from film method and retried the Attenuation Rate of Acryle phantom according to Good & Poor geometry. As the results, The Bucky factor from maker higher than in this experiments $30{\sim}40%$. The Attenuation Rate in good geometric condition brings about a little alteration compare with poor geometric condition. In the field experiment, we could get the chest image with very low entrance skin radiation dose $29.3{\mu}Sv$, especially with air gap methode, the entrance skin dose was detected $10{\mu}Sv$.

A 55-year old woman with advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer was admitted to hospital for the management of severe chest pain, which measured 7 out of 10 on a numerical rating scale (NRS). Despite palliative radiation and the application of multiple epidural blocks, she continued to experience severe cancer pain. We gradually increased the dose of transdermal fentanyl patches from $500{\mu}g/hr$ to $3,650{\mu}g/hr$, for 3 months without any significant side effects. Concomitantly, adjuvant therapy with antidepressants and anticonvulsants were added, decreasing the patient's pain to NRS 3~4 down from 7. After being transferred to a hospice clinic, her chest pain was well-controlled below NRS 4 by means of strong opioid medications, including the highest dose of transdermal fentanyl $4,050{\mu}g/hr$ for more than 16 months.
