신규 의료기기 개발 기술의 발전으로 다양한 형태로 손쉽게 생체 정보 및 의료 정보를 얻을 수 있는 기술이 증가하고 있다. 이러한 정보 수집 기술과 기기들의 증가로 생체 정보는 일상생활의 라이프로그와 함께 의료서비스의 주요 정보로 활용되고 있다. 그러나 다양한 생체신호의 활용성이 증가하고 있지만 보안적인 측면을 고려하지 않는 문제점을 갖고 있다. 또한, 의료현장에서 환자의 생체신호와 의료영상정보는 개별적인 디바이스에 의해 생성되며, 통합 관리되지 못하는 실정이다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서, 본 논문에서는 생체신호와 의사의 소견정보를 포함하여 QR 코드화하고 이와 연계된 의료영상정보와 통합하고자 한다. 이를 위해, 의료영상정보 표준인 DICOM(Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine)과 기존 생체신호 계측기들로부터 수집된 생체신호를 QR 코드화하여 의료영상정보에 통합한 이미지 파일 스킴을 제시한다. 그리고 시스템 구현 환경은 의료영상기기와 생체신호 수집을 위한 생체신호 계측기 그리고 스마트 디바이스와 PC로 구성하였다. 의료기기나 생체 신호 계측장치로부터 데이터를 전송 받기 위한 의료영상이미지 정보와 생체신호의 ROI 추출을 위하여 .NET Framework를 사용하여 QR 서버 모듈을 윈도우 서버 2008 운영체제에서 운영되도록 구현하였다. QR 서버 모듈의 주요기능은 의료영상기기로부터 생성된 DICOM파일을 파싱하고, 식별 ROI 정보를 추출하여 데이터베이스에 저장하여 관리한다. 또한, EMR, OCS와 같은 환자의 의료정보는 기본 정보 및 긴급상황 시 필요한 ROI 정보를 추출하여 QR코드화 하여 관리한다. 또한 생체 계측 기기로 환자 식별에 사용될 PID (patient identification) 와 함께 생체 정보를 전송 받을 경우 생체 정보의 크기에 따라 이를 해당 환자의 ROI와 함께 QR코드화 하여 관리하며, 생체 정보 파일 또한 저장하여 관리한다. 전송받은 생체정보가 QR코드로 변환할 최대 사이즈 이상일 경우 서버를 통해 생체정보에 접근할 수 있는 URL 정보를 QR코드화 한다. 또한 QR 코드 형태로 제공되는 정보는 .NET 프레임워크가 설치된 PC와 Android기반의 스마트 단말기상에 뷰어 프로그램을 통해 확인함으로 인증된 클라이언트만이 관련 정보를 확인할 수 있도록 하였다. 끝으로 응용 서비스의 수행결과를 통해 기존 의료영상정보와 생체신호 그리고 환자의 건강정보가 통합되어 의료현장에서 적용하는데 적합한 의료정보 서비스를 제공함을 보였다.

Background: Presenteeism has emerged as an important health-related issue and has been studied in a variety of occupation groups. This study examines the relationship between emotional labor and presenteeism in nurses in Republic of Korea. Methods: As a cross-sectional study, our study was conducted on 328 female nurses participating in the fourth Korean Working Conditions Survey (2015). Nurses were identified by the Korean Industry Classification Code. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the association between emotional labor and presenteeism. Results: Female nurses who always or sometimes hide their emotions in the workplace were found to have a high risk for presenteeism compared with female nurses who rarely hide their emotions in the workplace {odds ratio [OR] = 2.40 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.04-5.54]; OR = 4.12 [95% CI 1.72-9.84], respectively}. Furthermore, the risk of presenteeism was higher in nurses who sometimes engaged with complaining customers compared with nurses who rarely did so, but it lacked statistical significance. Conclusion: Presenteeism in nurses can cause various negative secondary effects; therefore, an alternative should be sought to mediate nurses' emotional labor to prevent presenteeism.

Background: Stroke patients usually experience damage to multiple functions and a long rehabilitation period. Hence, there is a large volume of patient clinical information. It thus takes a long time for clinicians to identify the patient's information and essential pieces of information may be overlooked. To solve this, we stored the essential clinical information of stroke patients in a blockchain and implemented the blockchain technology using the Java programming language. Methods: We created a mini blockchain to store the medical information of patients using the Java programming language. Results: After generating a unique pair of public/private keys for identity verification, a patient's identity is verified by applying the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm based on the generated keys. When the identity verification is complete, new medical data are stored in the transaction list and the generated transaction is verified. When verification is completed normally, the block hash value is derived using the transaction value and the hash value of the previous block. The hash value of the previous block is then stored in the generated block to interconnect the blocks. Conclusion: We demonstrated that blockchain can be used to store and deliver the patient information of stroke patients. It may be difficult to directly implement the code that we developed in the medical field, but it can serve as a starting point for the creation of a blockchain system to be used in the field.

Statistical approaches for analysis of data from the limited number of samples in ship building industry(SBI) collected by an industrial hygienist for checking compliance to an occupational standard were considered. Sampling for compliance usually has been guided by judgment selection, rather than true randomness, resulting in the creation of compliance samples which approximate a censored sample from the upper tail of the exposure distribution. Similar exposure groups(SEGs) including welding and painting process were established to assess representative values in each groups after reviewing the whole production line in SBI. For the convenient statistical approaches, the code has assigned to each SEGs. The descriptive statistics and probability plotting were used to yield the representative values in each SEGs. In the first step, SEGs of 558 were established from 5 ship building companies. The 38 SEGs showed the uncertainty are divided into each 5 companies and assessed the representative values again. The 44 SEGs in each companies was not showed the normal and lognormal distribution was analyzed each data. And also, recommendation was suggested to resolve the uncertainty in each groups.

With rapid increasing usage of smart phones, social concerns have arisen about the possible effects of electromagnetic fields emitted from wideband code division multiple access(WCDMA) mobile phones on human health. The number of people with self-reported electromagnetic hypersensitivity(EHS) who complain of various subjective symptoms such as headache, insomnia etc. has also recently increased. However, it is unclear whether EHS results from physiological or other origins. In this double-blinded study, we investigated physiological changes such as heart rate, respiration rate, and heart rate variability with real and sham exposures for 15 EHS and 17 non-EHS persons using a module inside a dummy phone. Experiment was conducted using a WCDMA module with average power of 24 dBm at 1950 MHz with the specific absorption rate of 1.57 W/kg using a headphone for 32 min. As a conclusion, WCDMA RF exposure did not have any effects on the physiological variables in either group.

The purposes of this study are to understand the doctors' attitude and satisfaction about the review system of national health insurance claim in Korea and to suggest the way to improve this system This study conducted a survey of the doctors registered in the medical association in Seoul city. The survey was performed as a form of self-administered questionnaire from January 2004 to February 2004. The contents of questionnaire dealt with doctors' attitude and satisfaction about the review system of medical service claim. Totally, 1,037 members replied to our survey and we analysed 981 doctors' data, excluding incomplete responses. As a result, 89.7% of repliers showed a negative attitude about the influences of the review system on improvement of medical service quality, 98.0% of repliers have had experiences that they have given distorted insufficient medical services in order to evade the curtailment of service claim. Also, 91.6% of repliers stated that they have had experiences of intentional modification or alteration of diagnostic code to shun the curtailment. Most of the doctors showed negative attitude to the curtailment procedure and the review system of service claim originally intended to be one of the quality control methods of medical service in Korea also, the development of both scientific and reasonable parameters and criteria for claim is needed. 'Through the improvement of review system for appropriate medical service, there is a need of a way to increase the satisfaction of medical service providers, and to encourage the motivation for quality control. Also, education is strongly needed to provide doctors with sufficient information about review criteria and curtailment cases.
