항결핵치료 시작 후 3개월간의 치료 경과와 치료 순응과의 관련성을 조사하기 위하여 3개 보건소(대구시 달성군, 경주시, 구미시)에 1995년 10월 15일 현재 단기 6개월 표준처방으로 치료 시작 후 3개월 이상 경과된 초치료 결핵환자 중 계속적인 추적관찰에서 누락된 10명을 제외하고 104명의 자료를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 연구 대상자 104명 중 호전군은 80.8%였고, 비호전군은 19.2%였다. 호전군과 비호전군간에 성, 연령, 교육 수준, 직업, 동반 가족유무, 흡연 및 음주습관의 변화 등에 유의한 차이는 없었고, 평균 연령은 비호전군이 51세로 호전군 42세보다 많았으나 유의 한 차이는 아니었다. 호전군에서는 약제의 복용을 식전과 식후 30분에 복용하는 경우(p<0.05), 약의 복용을 잊지 않도록 가족들이 챙겨 주는 경우(p<0.05), 약을 규칙적으로 복용하는 경우(p<0.01), 항결핵치료 도중 의문점을 가족이나 결핵담당자와 상의하는 경우(p<0.01) 등이 유의하게 많았다. 비호전군에서는 당뇨병이나 위장 질환 등을 않고 있는 경우가 유의하게 많았다(p<0.01). 결핵에 대한 지식점수는 호전군이 12.9로 비호전군 10.6보다 유의하게 높았고(p<0.01), 지식정도의 문항에 대한 신뢰도 검증 결과 신뢰성$(Cronbach'\alpha:0.703)$이 있었다. 치료경과를 호전군과 비호전군으로 나누어 종속변수로 놓고 시행한 다중 지수형 회귀분석에서는 약의 복용을 잊지 않도록 가족들이 챙겨주는 경우(p<0.05)가 유의한 변수로 채택되었고, 결핵에 대한 지식이 높은 경우(p=0.054), 약을 규칙적으로 복용하는 경우(p=0.062), 항결핵치료 도중 의문점을 가족이나 결핵담당자와 상의하는 경우(p=0.075)는 경계역의 변수로 채택되었다. 결론적으로 약을 규칙적으로 복용할 수 있도록 항결핵치료에 대한 신념을 불어넣고 경각심을 높임으로써 환자의 치료 결과를 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 생각되며, 향후 단기 6개월 표준요법에 의한 치료에 있어서 치료시작 후 3개월간의 치료 경과로 치료 결과를 예측하고 환자의 치료순응을 평가하기 위한 변수로 사용하기 위해서는 보다 많은 결핵환자를 대상으로 한 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 또한 환자의 치료 순응을 높이기 위하여 환자에 대한 교육과 의사 또는 결핵관리자와 환자, 조력자간의 강한 유대 관계의 형성에 도움을 줄 수 있는 방안의 모색이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

The purpose of this study was to develop a continuing nursing care program for cancer patients and the caregivers staying at their home and to test its effects on patients' symptom distress, caregiver burden, and satisfaction of life. The continuing nursing care program was based on the homecare needs of cancer patients, and was provided by three clinical nurses who took care of the patients while they were hospitalized. The program consisted of discharge education about selfcare using education materials(book and handout) and provisions of direct care. These were counselling and education during which visiting patients' home one week after discharge and telephone counseling two weeks after discharge. Counseling by telephone was always available during the research period. A quasi-experimental research design was used to test the effects of the program. Subjects for this study were 53 cancer patients discharged from the hospital and caregivers. These subjects were assigned to an experimental group (n=23) receiving continuous nursing care, or to a control group (n=30) not receiving continuous nursing care. Data from control group was collected first to protect from contamination. Data collection was done from October of 1998 to February of 2000. The collected data was analysed using mean, t-test, and chi-square test computed by SPSS software. The summary of results was as follows: 1) The symptom distress was a little decreased at posttest, but there were no significant differences between the experimental and the control group in symptom distress. 2) The score of caregiver burden was significantly decreased in experimental group at posttest, but no differences in control group. 3) There were no significant differences between the experimental and control group in the satisfaction of life. 4) The score of satisfaction of continuing nursing care program in experimental group at posttest was 2.321 of 3. In conclusion, even though this study did not obtain evidence of effectiveness of continuing nursing care program on patients, such as. It is still expected to be effective by a more improved program. Therefore we want to give some suggestions for further studies. 1) It is needed to make a communication channel with the patient's doctor to response promptly and appropriately to patient's conditions. 2) The research is necessary on patients in terminal stage or early stage of cancer diagnosis who have many nursing needs. 3) It is needed to readjust the roles and job assignment of clinical nurse to implement effectively as a program provider.

The Supreme Court stand in the position in specific lawsuit that it doesn't allow the discretionary not covered service, but recently in revocation suit of fine disposal that is imposed on medical fee of leukemia patient, it altered the existing adjudgement and admitted the discretionary not covered service exceptionally. It put forward the allowable condition roughly in that case. According as this alteration, it has become more important to embody the allowance conditions of exceptions. The Supreme Court presented three things, which are procedural condition, medical condition and subscriber's agreement. Concerning procedural condition, several present conciliation procedures are as follows: medical care benefit arret request, relative value conciliation etc, prior request on anti-cancer drug among chemicals which exceed acceptance criteria, request of non benefit object on common drugs. To be granted the existence of those system, there should be no obstacle to use that. Even if it were so, we should take circumstances into consideration; individual situation is unescapable concerning substance and urgency of the discretionary not covered service, process of the procedure, time required etc. Regarding medical condition, safety and effectiveness will be verified through evaluation procedures of new medical skill. About the necessity, the Supreme Court made clear through a sentence that it allow the discretionary not covered service, in case that needs to treat a patient out of the standard of medical benefit. Strict interpretation is right and it answer the purpose of the sentence that the supreme court permit the discretionary not covered service, exceptionally. We need to differentiate medical necessity and medical validity. Subscriber's agreement should holds true if it entails full explanation, and if it is preliminary, explicit and individual. On this account, it should be difficult to admit that someone agree effectively when he call for the affirmation that he is recipient of medical care. Reasonable expense needs to be a part of review whether the agreement is valid. Meanwhile If we adjust system of medical expense and eventually reorganize a fee for consultation payment system (Fee-for-service controlled by item to DRG (Diagnosis Related Groups)), controversial area of the discretionary not covered service will be decreased and that will guarantee the discretion of the doctor.

The objective of this study were to evaluate the relation between post-examination management states of dental caries in elementary school students and a mother's dental health beliefs. We systematically chose 10 elementary school in urban and rural areas of Chungnam Province and determined the first class students of 5 and 6 grade in each school as study subjects. Among 837 participants, 669 students were diagnosed with dental caries after a 1998 periodic dental health examination was answered completely and analysed. The contents of the questionnaire for students were general characteristics, dental health behaviors, notification factors, treatment factors. Their mothers were surveyed by another questionnaire. The contents of the questionnaire for mothers were also general characteristics, dental health behaviors, and dental health beliefs. The result of this study were as follows 1. The prevalence of dental caries was 65.0% and there was no significant difference between urban and rural areas. 2. Meanwhile, 63.8% of students in urban areas knew the examination result through a doctor's explanation, 52.4% of students in rural areas learned through a school notification letter, 82.9% of all the students let their parents know of their dental caries. 3. Among the dental caries group, 36.3% of the students were treated as for treatment, most students in urban areas visited a dental clinic, but those in rural areas visited the dental dept of a public health center as for the treatment time, 35.9% of the students were treated immediately after the examination. 4. 44.9% of those treated answered that they felt they needed treatment; 67.2% of those not treated answered that they considered the treatment as a bother and unnecessary due to no pain. 5. Overall, the scores in the dental health beliefs in mothers were low. Especially among the 5 items of susceptibility and seriousness, the scored were very low but the benefit was high. Logistic regression analysis showed that the treatment of a child's dental caries was significantly associated with low scores of benefit in those untreated and high scores among those treated. Considering these results, health education to stimalate a mother's susceptibility and seriousness in health beliefs and for students to learn the need for treatment, including a more detailed post exam management system at the school level should be considered for a higher treatment rate.

Purpose : Skip the repetitive HRCT axial scan in order to reduce the exposure of patients during chest HRCT scan, Helical Scan Data into a reconstructed image, and exposure of the patient change and visually evaluate the usefulness of the HRCT images. Materials and method : Patients were enrolled in the survey are 50 people who underwent chest CT scans of patients who presented to the hospital from January 2015 to March 2015. 50 people surveyed 22 people men and 28 people women people showed an average distribution of 30 to 80 years age was 48 years. 50 patients to Somatom Sensation 64 ch (Siemens) model with 120 kVp tube voltage to a reference mAs tube current to mAs (Care dose, Siemens) as a whole, including the lungs and the chest CT scan was performed. Scan upon each patient CARE dose 4D (Automatic exposure control, Siemens Medical Solution Erlangen, Germany) was to maintain the proper radiation dose scan every cross-section through a device that automatically adjusts the tube current of. CT scan is the rotation time of the Tube slice collimation, slice width 0.6 mm, pitch factor was made under the terms of 1.4. CT scan obtained after the raw data (raw data) to the upper surface of the axial images and coronal images for each slice thickness 1 mm, 5 mm intervals in the high spatial frequency calculation method (hight spatial resolution algorithm, B60 sharp) was the use of the lung window center -500 HU, windows were reconstructed into images in the interval -1000 HU to see. Result : 1. Measure the total value of DLP 50 patients who proceed to chest CT group A (Helical Scan after scan performed with HRCT) and group B (Helical Scan after the HR image reconstruction to the original data) compared with the group divided, analysis As a result of the age, but show little difference for each age group it had a decreased average dose of about 9%. 2. A Radiation read the results of the two Radiologist and a doctor upper lobe and middle lobe of the lung takes effect the visual evaluation is not a big difference between the two images both, depending on the age of the patient, especially if the blood vessels of the lower lobe (A: 3.4, B: 4.6) and bronchi(A: 3.8, B4.7) image shake caused by breathing in anxiety (blurring lead) to the original data (raw data) showed that the reconstructed image is been more useful in diagnostic terms. Conclusion : Scan was confirmed a continuous, rapid motion video to get Helical scan is much lower lobe lung reduction in visual blurring, Helical scan data to not repeat the examination by obtaining HRCT images reorganization reduced the exposure of the patient.

The role of radiology department has been greatly increased in the past few years as the technology in the medical imaging devices improved and the introduction of PACS (Picture Archiving and Communications System) to the conventional film-based diagnostic structure is a truly remarkable factor to the medical history. In addition, the value of using digital information in medical imaging is highly expected to grow as the technology over the computer and the network improves. However, the current medical practice, using PACS is somewhat limited compared to the film-based conventional one due to a poor image quality. The image quality is the most important and inevitable factor in the PACS environment and it is one of the most necessary steps to more wide practice of digital imaging. The existing image quality control tools are limited in controlling images produced from the medical modalities, because they cannot display the real image changing status. Thus, the image quality is distorted and the ability to diagnosis becomes hindered compared to the one of the film-based practice. In addition, the workflow of the radiologist greatly increases; as every doctor has to perform his or her own image quality control every time they view images produced from the medical modalities. To resolve these kinds of problems and enhance current medical practice under the PACS environment, we have developed a program to display a better image quality by using the ROI optical density of the existing gray level values. When the LUT is used properly, small detailed regions, which cannot be seen by using the existing image quality controls are easily displayed and thus, greatly improves digital medical practice. The purpose of this study is to provide an easier medical practice to physicians, by applying the technology of converting the H-D curves of the analog film screen to the digital imaging technology and to preset image quality control values to each exposed body part, modality and group of physicians for a better and easier medical practice. We have asked to 5 well known professional physicians to compare image quality of the same set of exam by using the two different methods: existing image quality control and the LUT technology. As the result, the LUT technology was enormously favored over the existing image quality control method. All the physicians have pointed out the far more superiority of the LUT over the existing image quality control method and highly praised its ability to display small detailed regions, which cannot be displayed by existing image quality control tools. Two physicians expressed the necessity of presetting the LUT values for each exposed body part. Overall, the LUT technology yielded a great interest among the physicians and highly praised for its ability to overcome currently embedded problems of PACS. We strongly believe that the LUT technology can enhance the current medical practice and open a new beginning in the future medical imaging.

수술행위는 신체에 대한 침습을 포함하는 것이므로 의료인은 수술주체와 수술행위의 내용을 충분히 설명하여 환자가 그 수술을 받을 것인지의 여부를 선택하도록 하여야 하고, 이는 헌법 제10조에서 규정한 개인의 인격권과 행복추구권에 의하여 보호되는 환자의 자기결정권에 해당한다. 미국에서는 '대리수술'의 경우 폭행에 해당한다고 판단한 사례가 있으나, 국내에서는 아직까지 수술의사에 대한 상해죄 등을 인정한 사례가 없고, 수술행위는 환자의 신체에 대한 적대적인 손상행위가 아니므로 상해죄로 처벌하기 어려운 면이 있다. 또한 환자의 '가정적 승낙'을 폭넓게 인정하는 판례의 입장에 따르면 의사의 전단적 의료행위에 대하여 업무상과실치사상죄로 처벌하기도 어려우므로, 환자의 자기결정권 강화를 위하여 의사의 설명의무를 의료법 등에 명문화하고, 대리수술 등 전단적 의료행위에 대하여 별도의 처벌규정을 입법화할 필요가 있다.

인간의 존엄성과 환자의 자율성에 터잡아 연명의료의 중단이 제도화된 이래, 최근에는 스스로 존엄하게 죽음에 이르기 위해 환자가 자기 생명을 단축시키고자 의료적 도움을 받을 권리가 있는지, 그러한 행위가 어느 범위에서 정당화될 수 있는지의 문제가 활발하게 논의되고 있다. 우리나라에서는 2016년 연명의료결정법의 제정으로 연명의료중단이 제도화된 이래 여러 차례 개정을 거쳤는데, 최근에는 '조력존엄사'를 합법화하기 위한 내용의 연명의료결정법 개정안이 발의되었다. 이번 개정안에서는 조력존엄사를 '환자의 의사로 담당의사의 조력을 통해 스스로 삶을 종결하는 것'으로 정의하고 있는데, 이는 네덜란드, 벨기에 등의 유럽 국가와 미국 일부 주에서 시행되고 있는 조력사망(Aid in Dying)에 해당하는 내용으로 보인다. 조력사망이란 의사결정능력이 있는 환자가 치료가 불가능한 질병으로 고통을 받고 있을 때 환자가 사망을 앞당길 수 있는 약물을 의사로부터 처방받아 이를 이용하여 사망에 이르는 것을 의미한다. 존엄사에 대한 논의는 연명의료중단에서 조력사망의 순서로 진행되는 것이 세계적 추세인데, 2000년대에 이르러 일부 국가에서는 조력사망, 나아가 적극적 안락사까지 합법화하였다. 미국에서는 오리건 주를 필두로 여러 주에서 조력사망을 인정하는 법률을 두고 있지만 적극적 안락사에 대해서는 금지하고 있다. 이 논문에서는 일찌기 존엄한 죽음에 관한 논의를 시작하여 환자의 자기결정권을 제도화한 미국의 일부 주에서 조력사망의 입법화가 어떤 과정을 거쳐 이루어졌는지를 살펴보고 캘리포니아의 임종선택법의 주요 내용과 법시행 이후의 결과를 분석하였다.
