PURPOSE: The law pertaining to medical service technologists does not discuss the scope and limits of doctors' guidelines. My paper aims to discuss these topics. METHODS: This study was based on a review of literature and an analysis of judicial precedents. RESULTS: Physical therapists have often noted the need for independent practitioners in their articles on health care. Their continued discussions on professional and educational differences have centered round this issue, but their ideas have not been accepted. Practitioners have continued to interpret doctors' guidelines in hospitals without discussing their scope. However, the Supreme Court presented a meaningful decision outlining the conceptual limits and the scope of medical practice. The court suggested, basing its interpretation in the goal of clarifying the concept of medical activities smoothly, was to follow a specific judgment on the levels of education, testing, and professionalism. CONCLUSION: The role of physical therapists is expanding in this country, in order to meet the needs of the ultra-aged society. Education is already responding to rising training needs. By dividing the doctors' guidelines into indirect and direct types, if there's no medical risk near or around the health center or hospital, it is a good idea to allow the management of physical therapy partially, while understanding the scope and limitations of these guidelines clearly. A teleological interpretation of the law is especially relevant, and can be implemented immediately by the authoritative interpretation on part of the health authorities without any legal amendments.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe physical therapists' self-reported: (1) attitudes and beliefs about evidence~based practice(EBP), (2) education, knowledge, and skills related to obtaining and evaluating evidence, (3) attention to the literature relevant to practice, (4) access to and availability of information and (5) perceptions of the barriers to evidence-based practice. Methods: Our study sample consisted of a random sample of 90 physical therapists in gwang-ju and junnam. Participants completed a questionnaire. Responses were summarized for each item, and logistic regression analyses were used to examine relationships among variables. Results: According to the respondents, the primary barrier to implementing EBP was lack of time. The results suggest they believe that the use of evidence in practice was necessary, that the literature is helpful to them in their practice and decision making, and that quality of patient care is better when evidence is used. Many of the beliefs, skills and behaviors we examined were related to the education courses and sex. The majority of the respondents had access to online information at home. Conclusion: They noted that they needed to increase the use of evidence in their daily practice.

Result: Eighty-four investigation subjects had 186 diseases that included stroke and arthritis, requiring the need for physical therapeutic approaches. In addition, the results of the door-to-door research project in the northern district of Busan showed that there was no match out of 88 subjects who submitted the viewpoint of the doctor. Such a result was produced as the doctors did not diagnose the patient directly, but rather the diagnoses were obtained from guardians and a door-to-door researcher who had a poor understanding of geriatric motion and function. Conclusion: To enforce long-term care successfully, a re-investigation should be performed for the welfare of the aged.

본 연구에서는 스웨덴의 장애인 보조기구 제공 시스템을 검토하고, 우리나라의 장애인 보장구건강보험 급여정책 대안 마련을 위한 기초자료로서 제공하고자 하였다. 스웨덴에서는 장애인구의 약 10%가 보조기구를 사용하고 있는데, 보조기구 제공을 위해서 중앙정부, 지역정부(란스팅 21개)와 지방정부(콤뮨 290개)의 역할을 명확하게 구분하여 효율적이고 체계적으로 운영하고 있다. 보건사회부 산하의 보건복지국가위원회에서는 지식기반 지침을 개발하고, 장애인정책개발국에서는 장애인 보조기구 정책을 모니터링하며, 장애인 보조기구기술연구소에서는 보조기구 개발연구 및 평가와 보조기구 전시장을 운영한다. 또한, 지역정부(란스팅)와 지방정부(콤뮨)는 보조기구 대여 및 추후관리를 담당하는데, 지역정부(란스팅)별로 보조기구센터를 운영하며 작업치료사, 물리치료사, 심리치료사, 간호사가 처방을 담당한다. 특기할 점은 장애인 보조기구를 무료로 대여하고 추후 관리를 하고 있다는 것과 사용이 끝난 보조기구는 회수하여 재활용을 하고 있다는 것이다. 또한, 처방자격자가 장애진단 담당의(우리나라 시스템)가 아니라 지역 및 지방정부에서 고용한 전문 인력이므로 대상자의 상태를 잘 파악하여 처방을 하고 추후 관리가 가능하다는 점이다.
