Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the knowledge and practice on hospital infection prevention of caregivers of hospitalized children. The results will be the basic data of future policy and education program for hospital infection prevention. Methods: A descriptive survey design was utilized, The subjects included 151 caregivers from a university hospital in Gyeongnam Province, Korea. The data was collected using a self-reported questionnaire which included 17 items for knowledge, 18 items for practice, developed by researchers from March 2005 to January 2006. The collected data was analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, and ANOVA using SPSS program. Results: The mean score of knowledge on infection prevention was .87 of 1 (especially low in method of hand washing item), and practice, 2.60 of 3 (especially low in protection from other people items). There were differences in practice by admission frequency (F=2.83, p = .04), but there were no differences in knowledge by any general characteristics. Conclusion: The degree of knowledge and practice on caregiver's infection prevention was not enough to prevent hospital infection of hospitalized children. Therefore, effective strategies should be developed to prevent hospital infection of hospitalized children.

본 연구는 치위생과 학생의 학교 교육과정상에 들어있는 치과감염관리 교과의 수업 후 감염관리 인식 변화를 학년별로 알아보고 교육 과정에 감염관리 교육방법의 추가 편성을 제시하기 위한 서술적 인과관계 연구이다. 결과로 첫째, 병원 실습 경험에 따른 항체인지는 실습 경험이 있는 학생 127명(62.6%)이 더 알고 있었고, 개인 방호 선택에서는 실습 경험과 상관없이 손 씻기가 가장 높았고, 그다음으로 마스크 쓰기를 선호하였으며, 감염 교육방법 선택은 실습수업이 병원 실습 경험과 상관없이 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 학년에 따른 항체 인지는 학년이 높을수록 더 인지하였고, 개인 방호 선택은 1, 2학년은 손 씻기를 선택한 반면, 3학년은 마스크 쓰기 (44.4%)를 선택하여 학년 간의 차이를 보였다 셋째, 실습 경험에 따른 환자 및 개인 건강인식 정도 차이에서는 환자 건강 인식 관련 결과 t 값은 '2.387', 유의 확률은 '0.05'보다 작기 때문에 실습 경험에 따른 환자 인식에는 차이가 나는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 환자 관련 감염 인식에 대해서는 교육 후 인식 변화가 가장 큰 설명 요인으로 나타났다. 학년, 실습 경험 유무의 차이에 따른 유의성이 나타난 것은 학년별로 실습 경험이 내재되어 있고, 임상실습 경험의 수에서 차이를 보였으며, 학생들의 교육방법 선택에서도 실습교육이 가장 효과적인 방법으로 선호도가 높았다. 감염 교육의 효과는 인식 형성에 도움을 주는 결과를 도출하여 계속적인 감염관리 교육의 계발과 재교육의 필요성을 알 수 있었다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to examine the knowledge of dental hygienists on infection control in dental office and their attitude toward that in a bid to provide some information on ways of enhancing the level of infection control in dental office. Methods : The subjects in this study were 220 dental hygienists who worked in dental hospitals and clinics in Busan and South Gyeongsang Province. A survey was conducted from May 17 to June 17, 2010, and the answer sheets from 183 respondents were analyzed with a SPSS WIN 12.0 program. Statistical data on frequency, percentage and mean were obtained, and t-test, Pearson correlation coefficient and one-way ANOVA were utilized. Results : They got a mean of $4.59{\pm}.68$ in six categories of infection control knowledge. They had the best knowledge on dental waste disposal, followed by hand washing, post-sterilization management, instrument disinfection and sterilization, surface management of dental equipment and wearing personal protective equipment. They got a mean of $3.99{\pm}.54$ in attitude, and they scored lowest in practice of surface management of dental equipment. Overall, they scored higher in every aspect of knowledge than in attitude(t=11.410, p=.0.000). There was the greatest gap between their knowledge and practice in surface management of dental equipment (t=13.885, p=0.000), and there was the smallest gap between their knowledge and practice in hand washing(t=5.460, p=0.000). And a positive correlation was found between knowledge and attitude, as better knowledge of infection control led to better attitude toward that(p<.001). Finally, concerning infection control knowledge and attitude by general characteristics, the presence or absence of infection control guidelines made differences to infection control knowledge, and infection control attitude was statistically significantly different according to infection control education experiences(t=6.501, p=.012) and the presence or absence of infection control guidelines(t=22.836, p=.000). Conclusions : In order to bolster infection control in dental office, the related system should be improved to legally require dental personnels to implement infection control. Every dental office must be furnished with infection control guidelines, and sustained education should be provided for dental hygienists to carry out infection control.

본 연구는 2014년 페루 리마 및 까야오 지역 학생 건강증진 프로그램의 기초조사 자료를 활용한 단면연구이며, 연구대상은 페루 리마북부 및 까야오 지역 내 일반 국 공립 중학교에 다니고 있는 11~19세의 청소년 959명이었다. 연구의 목적은 페루 도시 빈곤 지역 학생들의 각 건강위험행동과 칫솔질 빈도 간에 관련성을 파악하기 위해 분석되었으며, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 첫째, 페루 리마 및 까야오 지역 청소년들의 12.1% (116명)는 하루 1회 이하로 칫솔질 하였으며, 87.9% (843명)는 하루 2회 이상 칫솔질을 하였다. 하루 칫솔질 빈도의 평균은 2.42회였다. 둘째, 연구대상자들의 인구 사회학적 특성을 보정 한 후에 두 가지의 건강위험행동과 칫솔질 빈도 간에 관련성이 나타났으며, 해당 건강위험행동은 여가시간에 주로 비활동성 여가생활(TV, game, internet)을 하는 학생과 외출 후 비누를 이용하여 손을 씻지 않는 학생(never/rarely)이 하루 칫솔질을 1회 이하로 할 OR이 더 높았다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 보면, 페루 리마 및 까야오 지역 연구대상 청소년들의 하루 칫솔질 평균치는 WHO에서 권장하는 최소 수준인 2회 정도로 파악되었으며, 건강위험행동(비활동성 여가생활, 외출 후 손씻지 않기)을 하는 학생들은 하루 칫솔질 빈도 또한 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 향후 페루 도시 빈곤 지역 청소년들을 대상으로 한 ODA 건강증진 프로그램을 개발할 때에는 본 연구에서 도출된 결과를 토대로 신체활동 프로그램과 개인위생 프로그램에 구강보건교육을 통합적으로 실시할 필요가 있다.

We investigated elementary school students' knowledge, behavior, experience and preference of education method related to food safety in order to provide basic information for food safety educational program. A survey study was conducted with 569, fourth and sixth grade students, from two schools in Seoul and Ulsan. Students were asked thirty-two questions regarding food safety knowledge, behavior and experiences as well as their attitude to food safety class and preference for teaching method. The data was analyzed for the frequency analysis, t-test, chi-square test, one-way ANOVA and Pearson correlation using the SPSS/Windows. Results indicated that 91.9 percent of the respondents did not know what unsanitary food is. 67 percent of the respondents did not know the proper method of hand washing. Although the students' level of knowledge and behavior associated with food safety was low, there was meaningful correlation(r =.184, p<.01) between knowledge and behavior. Surprisingly, students in higher grade did not demonstrate an exceeding food safety knowledge and behavior. More than 50 percent of the subjects did not have food safety education either at home or school. 60 percent of the respondents interested in food safety and the majority recognized that a food safety education is needed. Students want to learn about unsanitary food(34.1%), foodborne illness(29.7%), food selection and storage method(21.3%), and personal hygiene(11.2%) through game, role play, and practice in real situation. These results suggest that development of food safety education program is needed through the elementary school year and the education program must include fun activities in which students can participate.

The purpose of this study was to investigate middle school students` perceptions on foodborne illness prevention in relation to their personal hygiene practices. The survey was administered in July, 2007 at one middle school, with a total of 390 students participating. The self-completed questionnaire consisted of several questions regarding the students` awareness of foodborne illness, perceptions of foodborne illness prevention, and personal hygiene practices. T-tests were used to identify the differences in their perceptions of foodborne illness prevention based on gender and Chi square tests were used to identify the relationships between their perceptions of foodborne illness prevention and personal hygiene practices. Eight percent of the respondents experienced foodborne illness at least once a year and 33.8% of them have stopped eating certain foods due to anxiety towards foodborne illness. The students perceived school foods (26.0%) and street foods(17.9%) as the main sources of foodborne illness, and dairy products(20.0%) and fresh fish (19.7%) were considered foods having the greatest potential for causing foodborne illness. Many students were aware of Escherichia coli O157(43.1%) and Hepatitis A(23.3%), but only a few recognized Clostridium botulinum(4.1%) and Salmonella(7.9%), even though these are major foodborne illness-causing pathogens. The students considered foodborne illness prevention very important(mean = 4.33); also, the results showed that many washed their hands 3-4 times (34.1%) and 5-6 times(29.2%) per day. Hand washing frequency was significantly related to the perceived importance of personal hygiene practice as well as to education on safety and sanitation. However, the students` perception on the importance of personal hygiene practices were not significantly different based on having received safety and sanitation education. Ultimately, these results will be used to develop guidelines for effective education on safety and sanitation.
