This research intended to analyse the perception level of seafarers in order to propose enhancement of health management for seafarers and improvement of marine telemedicine assistance system. To this end, questionnaire survey was conducted for 422 seafarers in relation to current status of utilizing Emergency Medical Advice by radio(EMAR). By trading area, experience of benefiting EMAR by coastal seafarers was higher than that of ocean-going seafarers. By kinds of ships the rate of utilizing EMAR by fisherman was higher than that of seafarers of merchant ships. The level of satisfaction on the EMAR was 14.9% and regarded to be very low while the answering rate of necessity and urgency toward introducing marine telemedicine assistance system for the future through utilizing telemedicine equipment what is called U-helath including motion pictures information was very high. The answering rate of willingness to provide their personal health information positively when introducing marine telemedicine system was very high(97.4%). It is thus necessary to permit marine telemedicine service system, establish service model of marine telemedicine through conducting demonstration projects, promote marine telemedicine actively at the level of government, etc.

There exists dead zone from the aspects of health equity and health medical equity for maritime personnel. They could not have been benefited from disease prevention and health promotion in comparison with shore personnel due to the restricted medical accessibility caused by long voyage ship operation. Furthermore, the system of health management and medical assistance for maritime personnel is insufficient, the continuous health monitoring system does not exist, nor health diagnosis system, maritime industrial accidents and occupational disease control systems are adequate. The International Maritime Organization and the International Labour Organization recommend their Member Governments to take necessary measures in the management of seafarers' health and diseases through conducting continuous and systematic investigation. Thus, this study intends to propose action strategy and tasks for introducing marine telemedicine system aiming to provide seafarers with health management service for the years to come. The conclusions of this study can be given as follows. First, it is required that a systematic medical service system needs to be provided to promote seafarers' health. Second it is recommended to establish the marine telemedicine system incorporating U-Health technology. Third, it is necessary to revise the relevant laws and regulations to introduce the marine telemedicine system. Fourth, it is also necessary to provide various assistance system at the national level in the furtherance of global marketing of marine telemedicine system.

Expansion and spreading of marine telemedicine is rather restricted due to the conflict of laws relating to medical service and lack of provisions in the Seafarers' Act, Medical Service Act, etc. Thus, this study is intended to reveal the current status and problems of marine emergency medical advice system for the furtherance of health care of seafarers and emergency medical assistance conditions and deduce relevant proposals for legislative improvements thereof in order to resolve underlying problems and issues. The results of this study can be summated as follows. First, in respect of directions to provide marine emergency service based on marine telemedicine system, emergency radio medical advice system needs to be strengthened to meet domestic and international instrument, marine telemedicine system needs to be provided through integrating u-Health technology and special marine medical center needs to be established. Second, regarding directions to provide health promotion service based on the marine telemedicine system, a new process of health care service for seafarers needs to be devised and provided involving seafarers' life cycle covering from prior to boarding to after leaving a ship. The conclusions of this study can be given as follows. First, the following new provisions need to be introduced in the Seafarers' Act. (1) The Minister of Oceans and Fisheries and a shipowner shall conduct matters pertaining to preventive health promotion and care for seafarers; (2) a provisions regarding establishment of seafarers' health promotion center by the Minister; (3) a special exemption permitting marine telemedicine service and qualification requirements for marine telemedicine assistant; (4) shipowner's obligation of carrying seafarers' health measuring equipment on board. Second, the relevant provisions regarding medical care persons needs to be revised in such a way that master or chief officer shall be appointed to be in charge of medical care on board. Last but not least, it is also essential to amend and update the minimum standards on drug and medicines to be carried on board and medicine chest and equipment on board.

이 연구의 목적은 해상에서 발생한 환자에게 최상의 의료서비스를 제공하기 위하여 해양원격진료시스템을 설계하고 구현하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 해상원격 진료에 필요한 통신경로인 인마셋(INMARSAT)과 엠베스트(MVAST)를 고찰하여 해양통신경로에 다양성을 제시하고 스마트 기기와 진찰용 의료기기를 연동하여 해양원격진료를 가능하게 구현하였다. 해양원격진료시스템은 HTTP를 채택하여 웹서버를 구성하고 클라이언트 요청을 처리하도록 하였으며, 안드로이드패드용 어플리케이션을 이용하여 환자의 차트 정보를 입력하고 진단용 블루투스 전자청진기를 이용하여 환자를 진단하도록 하였다. 본 시스템은 해상의 응급환자에게 적절한 대처를 하여 의료서비스를 향상시킬 수 있으며 향후 다양한 의료장비와의 연동을 통해 효과적인 의료지원시스템으로서의 가능성이 클 것으로 기대된다.

해상에서 운항되는 선박에서 인명사고가 발생하면 육상과 달리 적시에 의료지원을 받기 구조적으로 어렵다. 특히 연안선박의 경우 원양선에 비해 상대적으로 고령의 선원들이 승무하고 있기 때문에 인명사고가 빈번하며 인명사고에 취약하다. 본 연구는 AR과 VR과 같은 실감기술을 기반으로하는 연박선박의 원격의료지원 모델 개발하기 위한 방향성을 제시하고자 한다.

본 연구는 원양선박에서 발생하는 선원들의 질환을 원격의료시스템을 통해 실태를 파악하고, 이에 대한 진단명 및 질병분류의 분석을 통해 원양선박 선원들의 질병예방과 건강증진에 기여하는데 그 목적이 있다. 2016하반기부터 2017년까지 약 14개월 동안 원격 진료를 통해 수집된 총 195명의 선원들의 진단명, 개인적, 건강적 특성을 수집하여 양적분석을 하였다. 질환발생 빈도에서 두드러기(5.6%), 요부염좌(4.1%), 급성위장관염(3.1%) 및 불안(3.1%) 등이 가장 흔하게 발생되는 상병으로 분석되었다. 질병분류에서는 근골격계(25.1%), 피부계(17.9%), 소화기계(11.3%) 순으로 나타났다. 원격의료의 발생은 30세미만이 가장 많았으며, 사관 보다는 부원의 질병발생이 많았다. 교차분석($X^2$ 검정)에서 질병이 외상보다 통계학적으로 유의하게 발생이 많았으며(p<.001), 선박의 종류(상선과 어선)에 따른 병인 간에도 차이가 있었다(p<.005).
