목적: 본 연구는 DNR이 결정된 후 간호활동이 어떻게 변화하는지를 파악하고 각 활동별 변화에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하고자 시도되었다. 방법: 대상자는 200병상 이상 종합병원 간호사 173명이었으며, 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 자료를 수집하였고, SAS 9.4 프로그램을 이용하여 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 결과: 39개 항목의 간호활동이 증가한 간호사의 수는 평균 60.4명(34.9%), 유지는 102.4명(59.2%), 감소는 10.1명(5.9%)이었다. 활동감소가 가장 많이 나타난 영역은 신체적 영역이 12.6명(7.3%)이고, 영적 영역이 10.8명(6.3%)이었다. 항목별 활동이 가장 많이 감소한 항목은 전체 39개 중 '얼굴세안과 부분목욕 간호를 시행한다(19.7%)'였다. 간호사의 지식, 태도, 실천역량, 업무량과 업무 속도가 각 간호활동 증가여부에 영향을 미치는지를 살펴보면 간호사의 지식역량은 전체 39개 항목 중 9개, 태도역량은 2개, 실천역량은 4개, 업무량은 14개, 업무속도는 1개 항목에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 결론: DNR 환자에 대한 간호를 강화하기 위해서는 DNR 간호활동에 대한 업무지침을 구체화하고, 이에 대한 실무교육을 통해 간호사의 지식역량을 증진시키며, 간호사의 활동을 뒷받침할 수 있는 부서의 지원체계와 업무량 조정 등이 필요하다.

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to investigate the degree of fatigue and its related factors in patients with breast cancer. Method: The subjects of this study consisted of 62 breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. The Revised Piper Fatigue Scale, Disruption of Usual Activity Scale, Linear Analogue Self Assessment Scale and Self-Care Diary Scale were employed to measure fatigue, disruption of usual activity, mood state and physical symptom respectively. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS-PC to obtain summary statistics for the descriptive analysis, Pearson Correlation, and Stepwise Multiple Regression. Result: The results are as follows. 1. The mean score of the degree of fatigue was 4.82 points indicating moderate level. 2. The mean score of the degree of disruption of usual activity, mood state and physical symptom were 2.66, 5.00, and 4.69 points. 3. Fatigue of the subjects was significantly correlated with disruption of usual activity(r=.517, p<.01), mood state(r=.420, p<.01) and physical symptom(r=.463, p<.01). 4. With the result of stepwise multiple regression, disruption of usual activity, mood state and physical symptom being the three variables which could explain fatigue by 39.1%. The results of this study suggest that comprehensive intervention strategy for fatigue should be developed to maintain quality of life during and following chemotherapy considering these factors.

Purpose : The purpose of the present study is to develop a clinical pathway applied with activity-based management methodology for efficient clinical management to cope with rapid changing medical environments. Method : After making a preliminary pathway based on which a conceptual frame of reference was established to develop a clinical pathway, the final one was confirmed by verifying experts validity and clinical validity. The ultimate activity-based clinical pathway was restructured after clarifying, schematizing and analyzing the whole activities of clinical pathway in accordance with the conducting process of activity-based management. Result : A clinical pathway for total hip replacement was developed, in which the vertical axis consisted of assessment, examination, consultation, medication, treatment, diet, activity, and education, and the horizontal axis was composed of six days of hospitalization. Then, on the basis of the development, the clinical pathway including the improved contents and information was restructured after making the reform measure by analyzing each of activities in the pathway. And the list of contents related to the clinical management activity was made, which was described its main contents and the pre-activities that ought to be completed before conducting each of activities in the pathway. Conclusion : The clinical pathway applied with activity-based management may be used as a standard guidance for providing continuous and consistent patient care. It will provide the information for nursing activities to nurses and the management information about hospital and nursing activities to the hospital administrators. It will also be used as a tool for communication between medical staff. Besides, it will contribute to creating profits for the hospital by shortening the length of stay in patients.
