환자의 입원전후, 입원생활, 수술전후, 퇴원후 정보교육 및 식사 영양지도 등 의료 기관에서의 적재 적시적 환자교육 정보의 부재, 지연과 오류는 임상적 예후는 물론 의료의 질 저하와 의료분쟁 등 심각한 문제를 야기시키고 있다. 따라서 최근 의료선진국을 중심으로 의료의 질 관리, 상호소통 및 의료분쟁의 화두와 함께 맞춤형 환자교육 체계의 중요성이 크게 부각되고 있다. 의료진, 원무행정 및 임상 실험실들을 중심으로 환자교육이 네트워크기반으로 활발하게 이뤄질 때 의료 질이 향상되고, 궁극적으로 병원의 경영이익창출에도 도움이 되는 것으로 S병원 사례에서 유의미하게 나타났다. 이러한 동기에서 본 논문에서는 CPES 개념의 연구를 바탕으로 웹기반 맞춤형 환자교육 시스템을 제안하고 S 병원을 대상으로 설계와 구현을 진행하였다. 더불어 S병원에서의 실증적 계량분석을 통해 ?춤형 환자 중심 교육 시스템의 도입 효율성과 효과성을 분석하였다.

한국은 국가건강검진을 시행하여 국민건강증진에 크게 기여하고 있으며 그 수검률 또한 증가하고 있다. 본 연구는 수검률 증가에 따른 방사선검사의 증가가 예상되어 그 이용 빈도(이용량)와 피폭선량을 파악하고자 한다. 본 연구는 2011년 국민건강보험공단 건강검진 분석 자료에서 방사선검사를 분리하여 이용량을 파악하고, UNSCEAR 2008년 보고서의 수록되어 있는 검사별 선량을 적용하여 국가건강검진에서 방사선검사로 인한 피폭선량을 추정한다. 주요 분석결과 2011년 국가건강검진 수검자 1인당 평균 피폭선량은 0.57 mSv로 추정되었고, 최대 11.081 mSv, 최소 0.02 mSv로 추정되었다. 방사선검사의 이용 빈도와 피폭선량은 각각 총 16,005,914건, 6,311.76 person-Sv로, 이중 이용량은 흉부 X선검사가 1,070,569 (69.17%)건으로 가장 높았고, 피폭선량은 위장조영검사가 5,217.94 (82.67%) person-Sv로 가장 높았다. 성 연령별 결과 39세 이하를 제외한 전 연령대에서 여성의 수검비율과 피폭선량이 높았고, 특히 50-54세 여성이 1,674,787 (10.5%)건, 701.59 (11.1%) person-Sv로 가장 높았다. 검사별 선량에서 위장조영검사가 전체 82.67%를 차지하는 만큼 의료상(목적) 반드시 시행하는 경우를 제외하고는 위장내시경검사를 선택하여 수검 받도록 정책적으로 장려하고 외국의 사례와 같이 경제성과 실효성 평가에 따라 폐지된다면 국가건강검진에의 방사선피폭은 현저히 줄어들 것으로 예상한다.

It is very important to supply safe drinking water for rural area not only a prevention of entric diseases but also a promotion of health life. It is estimated that 6,981,000 rural inhabitants were covered by the simple piped water supply system at the end of 1987 in Korea. The programme for improvement of water supply system in rural villages was initiated by the government since 1967. But most of these systems have been operated carelessly by the hands of villagers who have no proper knowledge and experience. Since most of water sources were located nearby farmland, there might be a possibility that the sources could be contaminated by pesticides and fertilizers. For this reason, it is recommended to take underground water as a water source rather than surface water such as a pond or streamwater in rural areas. However, the system is supplied from the surface water, its water quality can be improved by using of simple sand filter and simple chlorinator inexpensively. On the basis of an on-site study, conducted during 1986-87, in San-Buk Village, Keum-Sa-Myon, Yeju-Gun, Kyong-Gi-Do, the new simple piped water supply system was designed by the Institute for Environmental Research, Yonsei University, and constructed by the villagers themselves in September 1987. This simple system which is protected by metal fences consists of three main parts, pump house, vertical sand filter and water tank. The pumped water from underground flows into the upper part of the sand filter, through the sand, and out the water tank which is connected to the bottom of vertical filter. And the simple plastic-bottle chlorinator was installed in the water tank for chlorination. The water quality was remarkably improved after completion of construction. The total bacterial count was not detected from the tap water in households distributed by this simple piped water supply system. The construction cost of this system which was connected 34 households in San-Buk Village, was 4,851,000 won (approximately 6,020 U.S. dollars : 1$=805.8 won) in 1987,77% of expenses was supported by the Community Development Foundation in Korea. This case study for simple piped water supply projects will be applicable to other programme for improvement of water supply system in rural areas of Korea, and other developing countries.

Objectives : This study aims to investigate the recognition on Mibyeong among Korean Medicine doctors (KMDs) and to suggest institutional approaches for the active use of Mibyeong. Methods : On-line survey for KMDs who were registered in the Association of Korean Medicine was performed. The survey questionnaires included definitions and categories of Mibyeong, clinical use of Mibyeong, and the need for developing Mibyeong care packages, etc. Results : Of 18,344 KMDs who were received survey e-mail, 884 KMDs replied. As for the awareness of the Mibyeong, over 80% of the KMDs agreed the definitions based on patients' subjective symptoms and Korean Medicine theories. 36.1% of respondents used the term Mibyeong in the medical record, and 38.6% used when they explained the patients' condition to the patients. A majority of respondents agreed with the need for a developing Mibyeong care package. Developing the standard methods for Mibyeong assessment was the primary requisite on Mibyeong research. Conclusions : Currently the level of recognition and use of Mibyeong among Korean Medicine doctors was relatively low. To promote the use of Mibyeong in the clinical field, the standard methods for Mibyeong assessment and Mibyeong care package need to be developed.

In order to study milk preference and intake pattern of adolescents, the questionnaire survey was conducted with 929 middle and high school students residing in Chungnam cities through October and November 2004. Of the subjects, 56.3% liked milk or liked very much. They preferred chocolate and fruit-tasted milk to plain milk. Reasons for liking milk were for health and its taste, while the reasons of disliking were unpleasant smell and stomach upset. However those who disliked milk did like milk products such as ice-cream, yogurt or cheese. Of the students 35.1% drank milk 2 times or more a day, while 11.8% drank milk less than 2-3 times a month. As a whole they drank milk 8.6$\pm$6.7 times a week, of which 4.3$\pm$3.1 times for plain milk. Daily intake amount was estimated as 308$\pm$315mL. Middle-school students and boys drank more milk than high-school students and girls, respectively. Among the students 64.3% used to drink 1 cup of milk at a time, and 58.3% drank only milk without other foods. It was shown that 51.8% took milk school-serviced and their milk intake frequencies were higher than those of who were not given school milk service. Also milk intake frequencies was higher in students whose mother were housewives than in students whose mother had jobs. Milk preference, intake frequency, and one portion size showed significant and positive correlations each other. In conclusion, milk intake level of the subjects was insufficient and unpleasant smell and stomach upset were the main reasons which decreased milk preference and consumption. Students with low milk preference should be guided with how to drink milk deliciously, how to choose milk type and its products. It is also effective to go into school milk service and to provide milk at home anytime. As students like much fruit-tasted and chocolate milk, the milk processing industries should take their nutritional and health benefits into considerations importantly.

We identified the echinostome metacercariae in Chinese mystery snails, Cipangopaludina chinensis malleata, from Xiengkhuang Province, Lao PDR with morphologies of adult worms recovered. Total 20 snails were examined with artificial digestion method and then the collected metacercariae were orally infected to a mouse and a rat. Adult worms recovered from experimental animals were observed with a light microscope and a SEM. The metacercariae were round, 125×123 ㎛ in average size, with a moderately thick cyst wall, collar spines distributed in the head collar and excretory granules in 2 canals of excretory tube. Adult flukes (3-week-old in a rat) were elongated, ventrally curved and 5.310×1.023 mm in average size. Head collar distinct, bearing 43 collar spines with 5 end group ones on each side. Oral sucker subterminal, prepharynx very short, pharynx well developed, and esophagus relatively short. Cirrus sac well developed, with a saccular seminal vesicle, and ventral sucker very large. Ovary round and on the median line of the body. Testes tandom and elongated. Eggs operculated, elliptical and 90×57 ㎛ in average size. In the SEM observation, the head crown prominent, with 43 collar spines resembled with horns of younger stag. Scale-like tegumental spines were densely distributed on the surface between the head collar and ventral sucker, and their densities were decreased posteriorly. Conclusively, the metacercariae detected in C. chinensis malleata from Lao PDR were identified as those of Echinostoma macrorchis based on the morphological characteristics of adult worms.

Objectives : This study was conducted to investigate the associations of non alcoholic fatty liver with metabolic syndrome and the serum carotenoids. Methods : This study was conducted in a general hospital in South Korea from November, 2004 to August, 2005. The study subjects were 350 sampled persons who were aged from 40 years and older (males : 180, females : 170). They were grouped into the normal, mild and severe groups according to fat accumulation in their livers, as determined by ultrasonography. We analyzed the association between non alcoholic fatty liver and metabolic syndrome by multiple logistic regression analysis and we analyzed the association between non alcoholic fatty liver and the serum carotenoids by a general linear model(ANCOVA). Results : After adjustment for the effect of potential covariates, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome was associated with fat accumulation in the liver (p trend <0.001). If the odds ratio of normal group is 1.00, then that of the mild group is 2.80 (95% C.I=1.17-6.71) and that of the severe group is 7.29 (95% C.I=2.76-19.30). The prevalence of metabolic alterations fitting the criteria of metabolic syndrome, according to the class of fat accumulation in the liver, was significantly increased, except for criteria of high blood pressure, a large waist circumference and low HDL (high density lipoprotein) cholesterol level (p trend <0.001). The level of serum ${\beta}$-carotene was decreased according to the class of fat accumulation in the liver (p trend=0.036), but the levels of serum ${\alpha}$-carotene, lycopene, ${\beta}$-cryptoxanthin and lutein were not decreased. Conclusions : This study shows that non alcoholic fatty liver was associated with metabolic syndrome and with the serum ${\beta}$-carotene level.

The Korean government had introduced the industrial safety & hygiene consultant(ISHC) system to improve worksite health and safety level by providing specialized industrial safety & hygiene(S&H) services in 1996. Despite of initial hopeful expectation it has been said that this plan might fail to settled down and maintain its purpose. This study was designed to investigate operational issues and problems concerning the ISHC system, that would direct the way of change and future role. Questionnaire were sent to ISHC, professional engineer, agencies for occupational injury prevention, S&H specialist in the corporation nationwide and totally 256 people responded to in having 62.7% of response rate. The result of this study were as follows; 1. One hundred and forty two cases of safety assessment and 27 cases of process safety reports were the six years' results since 1996 the ISHC program had first been introduced. This results showed that injury prevention activities of ISHC had been stagnant. 2. The 78.8% of respondents had negative opinion about injury prevention activities of ISHC program. 3. The operational problems of ISHC were lack of understanding of company about ISHC, low systematization of work items, duty overlapping with agencies for occupational injury prevention, low support by government. in order. 4. It was suggested that abolition of ISHC and promotion of professional engineer system should be considered. 5. To promote professional engineer system it was suggested that the professional engineer could conduct consulting service and ISHC should be integrated with the expert system.

The issue presented in this paper are as follows: 1. Legislative actions of welfare-related law for the exceptional children. The legislative base for the evolution has been yet weak and ambigous at best for a formalization of what should be considered accepted practice and effective action in providing handicapped child and their parents educational rights and equal protection of the law. And they are under remote control of partial factor subject to social welfare law for children, and public law for education, promotion law for the exceptional child education, protection law for public aids. 2. Organization of government for the welfare services for the exceptional children. There is no sing of a push toward consolidation of effort for the welfare service of the exceptional children in this country that seeks to recapture a sense of unity, of coherence, of completeness from a reality made up of discontinuous fragments of humanitarian effora This presently that. as for the education of the exceptional child, by the section of the exceptional education in MOE (Ministry of Education), and/or as for welfare services and promotion actions, by the section of child welfare in MHSA (Ministry of Health and Social Affairs). One door type operation rooted in the specialization, and limited resources to evolve multi-purpose agencies that undertake to provide a broad range of tangible and concrete services, as well as supportive counselling and assessment, under a single management which plans and directs the allocations of resources, should be followed. 3. Facilities and recruitment of teachers for the exceptional children. In this country there are 54 facilities for special services, 56 schools for the exceptional education, and 3 colleges and equavalents that provide teacher training services leading to certification with IIO annual graduates. However, curriculum for exceptional children should be rearranged and reconstructed. Conclusion; Only as for social welfare institutions in community, this country produced a succession of specific purpose activities, over period of time, that accumulated to form the present network of hundreds of social welfare organizations and facilities Periodically major efforts were launched to revitalize or to improve the help-giving system. But they lack specialization to be effective, and the nature of multi-purpose center tends to be vague for the classified handicapped. Therefore, there, should be linkage between policy maker and community services to maintain some coherenty in preventive care, treatment, and after cares. At last, the effects of the current concept "the exceptional child" involved with their families, and their neighborhood should be considered in view of the people who consist about 25% of the total population.
