Vitamin D의 주된 작용은 칼슘과 인의 흡수증가로 인한 골의 무기질화이며 vitamin D 결핍 시 에는 소아에서는 연골에 석회 침착이 안되어 구루병을 일으키고 성인에서는 골연화증 또는 골다공증이 생긴다. 또한 최근 이슈가 되고 있는 모든 암세포의 성장을 억제하고 심장병 등도 예방한다는 역학 연구 결과들이 발표되어 혈중 최적의 vitamin D농도에 관한 연구가 지속되고 있지만 일반적으로는 20~32 ng/mL의 농도가 최적의 농도라고 여겨지고 있다. 이에 우리 한국인들의 25-Hydroxy vitamin $D_3$농도를 측정하여 어느 정도의 농도를 유지하고 있는지 분석해 보고자 하였다. 2008년 2월20일부터 2009년 4월21일까지 14개월간 (재)네오딘의학연구소에 의뢰된 의료기관 종합검진 수진자 들의 혈청 25-Hydroxy vitamin $D_3$ 검사한 2,800검체를 수집하였다. 이 검체는 모두 25-Hydroxy vitamin $D_3$ ($^{125}I$ Kit: Diasorin, USA)로 검사한 후 성별, 연령별, 계절별, 지역별로 분석하여 보았다. 총 2800 검체 중 25-Hydroxy vitamin $D_3$ 평균농도는 남 20ng/mL 여 17.22 ng/mL 연령별로는 남자 10~20세 18 ng/mL, 21~30세 17 ng/mL, 31~40세 19 ng/mL, 41~50세 21 ng/mL, 51~60세는 22 ng/mL, 61~70세는 22 ng/mL, 71~80세 22 ng/mL, 81~90세는 19.9 ng/mL 여자 10~20세는 16 ng/mL, 21~30세는 15.26 ng/mL, 31~40세는 16 ng/mL, 41~50세는 17ng/mL, 51~60세는 19 ng/mL, 61~70세는 19 ng/mL, 71~80세는 19 ng/mL, 81~90세는 17 ng/mL이었다. 계절별로는 12월~5월이 15.97 ng/mL 6월~11월이 21.60 ng/mL이었다. 지역별로는 1월~4월까지의 남성을 비교해 본 결과 서울 경기 15.52ng/mL 강원도 15.33 ng/mL 충청도 18.03 ng/mL 전라도 18.68 ng/mL 경상도 18.76 ng/mL 제주도 21.23 ng/mL의 농도를 보였다. 한국인 일반인(칼슘 보충제나 종합비타민제의 복용상태는 모름)을 대상으로 25-Hydroxy vitamin $D_3$검사를 하였을때 최소치 1.98 ng/mL, 최대치 58.66 ng/mL의 분포를 보여 메뉴얼에서 제시한 Deficiency (0~5 ng/mL)에 0.3%의 상태가 있었고, Insufficiency (5~20 ng/mL) 63.3% Hypovitaminosis(20~40 ng/mL)는 36.0%인 것으로 나타났으며 Sufficiency(40~100 ng/mL)는 0.4%로 나타났다. 또한 Toxicity (>100ng/mL)상태의 대상자는 없었다. 분석결과는 실외활동을 많이 하는 남성이 여성보다 25-Hydroxy vitamin $D_3$가 높았으며 연령별로는 남 여 모두 51~80세가 가장 높았다. 또한 계절별로는 6~11월이 높았다. 지역별로는 지방이 도시보다 높았다. 최근 vitamin D의 적정농도가 골다공증과 암 예방을 할 수 있다는 연구결과가 이슈가 되고 있는 시점에 한국인의 vitamin D농도가 다른 논문에서 언급한 20~32 ng/mL에는 미치지 못한 것으로 나타났다. 물론 한국인의 참고치가 미 설정된 상태이기에 더 많은 연구와 노력이 필요하리라 생각된다. Vitamin D의 급원인 자외선이 중요한 만큼 모든 사람들이 실외활동 시간을 많이 늘려야 할 것으로 사료된다. 또한 RIA 방법이 많이 줄고 있는 이 시점에 방법이 불편하긴 하지만 vitamin D의 유용성을 높이 평가해 종합검진이나 R&D용 등으로 검사가 널리 되었으면 하는 바램이다.

본 연구는 소아청소년에서의 우울증 및 조울증의 우울삽화에 대한 임상특성을 알아보고자 하였다. 1993년 3월 1일부터 1999년 10월 31일까지 OO대학교 어린이 병원 소아청소년 정신과에 입원하였던 34명의 우울증 환아와 17명의 조울증 우울삽화 환아를 대상으로 병록지 기록을 통해서 이들의 사회인구학적 특성, 진단적 분류, 입원시 주 증상 및 문제점, 증상의 빈도, 주산기 모 병력과 아동기 발달력, 공존 정신질환 및 신경 심리학적 검사, 가족의 임상적 특성, 가족 정신병리 및 가족 병력, 치료반응 등에 대하여 조사하였다. 1) 우울증에서 남자의 비율이 여성의 경우보다 높았으며, 조울증 우울삽화에서는 남녀의 비율이 비슷하였다. 2) 평균 발병 연령은 조울증 우울삽화에서 14.1세, 우울증에서 12.8세로 우울증에서 일찍 발병하는 양상을 나타냈으며, 입원 횟수에 있어서는 조울증 우울삽화에서 우울증에 비해서 많았다. 3) 조울증 우울삽화와 우울증 모두에서 식물증상의 호소가 신체증상보다 많았으며, 자살사고 증상은 우울증에서, 공격적인 증상은 조울증 우울삽화에서 많았고, 정신병적 증상에서는 망상은 우울증에서 환각은 조울증 우울삽화에서 많이 나타났다. 4) 두 집단 모두에서 불안장애가 가장 많이 동반되었으며, 신체형 장애, 정신지체, 인격장애 등이 동반되었다. 5) 조울증 우울삽화와 우울증 모두 높은 가족력을 보였고, 특히 우울증은 아동 학대력과 가족의 부적절한 양육과 관련성을 보였다. 성인에서 조울증과 우울증이 분명한 임상적 차이를 갖고있는 것처럼 소아에서도 조울증 우울삽화와 우울증은 발병연령, 신체증상 및 식물증상을 비롯한 임상증상의 차이, 공존질환 등에서 서로 다른 임상 양상을 나타내었다. 발병 위험이 통계적으로 유의하게 높다고 할 수 있었다. 2) 자신은 남들에게 인기도 없고, 따돌림을 당한다고 여기며 정신병적 증상을 가진 군(47명, 남자 31명, 여자 16명)은 단순히 정신병적 증상이 높은 군에 비해 불안 척도, 우울증 척도, 공격성, 대인 민감성, 학교 및 사회 적응 척도, 강박증상 척도, 공포불안 척도, 정신병적 증상, 신체적 증상 호소 등에서는 차이를 보이지 않았으나 자신이 따돌림을 받는다는 호소와 편집증은 더 높게 측정되었다. 그리고, 학교폭력 피해자 중에서 정신병적 증상이 유의하게 높게 측정되었고, 스스로 인기가 없다고 생각하는 대상들에서는, 불안 증상, 우울증, 공격성, 대인 예민성, 강박증상, 편집증, 신체 증상 호소 등이 정신병적 증상을 잘 설명해주었다 ($r^2$=0.93). 즉, 따돌림을 당한다고 호소한 집단은 정신병적 증상이 유의하게 높았고, 이를 통해 왕따 피해자는 정신병 발병 위험이 통계적으로 유의하게 높다고 할 수 있었다. 이를 통해서 따돌림과 같은 학교폭력 피해자가 불안증상, 우울증, 공격성, 대인 예민성, 강박증상, 편집증, 신체 증상 호소와 같은 문제를 보였을 경우에는 정신병적 증상 유무와 학교 적응, 집중력 장애, 사고개념 형성 장애 등을 확인하여 정신병의 진단을 고려해야 한다고 할 수 있다.탈트검사에서 기질성 뇌장애를 의심할만한 소견은 14명(63.5%)에서 보였다. 지능검사의 결과는 평균이상 IQ는 12명((54.5%), 지능지체 및 경계선 지능은 9명(41.0%)이었다. 5) 주 진단 및 공존진단：주 진단으로는 행실장애가 6명(27.3%), 경계선장애(borderline child) 5명(23.0%), 우울병 4명(18%)

목 적 : 폐쇄성 수면무호흡증은 일반인구의 $2{\sim}5%$ 정도에서 발견될 정도로 흔한 질환이다. 합병증이 심각해서 치료의 중요성이 점차 증가되고 있다. 폐쇄성 수면무호흡증의 진단에는 야간 수면다원검사가 가장 기본적인 방법이지만, 숙련된 인력이 필요하고, 경제적인 부담이 커서 제한적으로 사용되고 있다. 이런 이유로 수면무호흡증 선별을 위한 보다 간편하고 경제적인 방법에 대한 필요성이 제기되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 수면다원검사에 비해 간편하고 쉽게 사용할 수 있는 혈중산소포화농도측정기를 이용하여 그 측정소견을 활용하면 수면무호흡증의 선별 진단이 가능한지를 연구하였다. 방 법 : 수면다원검사실에 의뢰된 환자들 중 무작위로 선정된 59명을 연구 대상으로 하였다. 수면다원검사기기로 기록을 하면서 동시에 혈중산소포화농도측정기를 이용하여 혈중산소포화도 기록을 얻었다. 수면다원기록 판독은 국제 판독기준에 따랐다. 저하 지수(dip index), 동맥혈 혈중산소포화도 평균치(mean $SaO_2$), 그리고 CT90(혈중산소포화도가 90%이하인 수면 시간의 비율)을 이용하여 수면무호흡증의 진단 기준을 설정하였으며, 그 결과를 수면다원검사의 결과와 비교하였다. 혈중산소포화도에서 도출된 세기준에 따른 민감도, 특이도를 계산하였다. 결 과 : 전체 59명의 대상자 중에서 39명이 수면다원검사에 의해 수면무호흡증으로 진단되었다. 평균 호흡장애지수는 17.5 이었으며, 혈중산소포화도 평균치는 94.9%, 평균 CT90은 5.1%이었다. 저하 지수[$4%{\sim}4$초]가 호흡 장애지수(RDI)와 연관성이 가장 직선적으로 높았으며, 저하 지수[$4%{\sim}4$초]${\geq}2$일 때 0.95의 민감도와 0.71의 특이도를 보였다. 혈중산소포화도 평균치${\leq}97%$를 수면무호흡증의 진단 기준으로 할 경우 0.95의 민감도와 0.41의 특이도가 산출되었다. $CT90{\geq}5%$를 수면무호흡증의 진단 기준으로 하였을 때 민감도는 0.28 이었으며 특이도는 1.00이었다. 결 론 : 본 연구에서는 혈중산소포화농도측정기에서 얻어낸 저하 지수, 혈중 산소포화도 평균치, 그리고 CT90을 이용하여 수면다원검사를 대치해 수면무호흡증을 선별, 진단해낼 수 있는 가능성을 제시하였다.

In view of ever rising water pollution problems of river in the vicinity of large urban communities, the author has made an investigation on the pollution of water sampled from Han River (Seoul area) and Nakdong River (Daegu city area) during the period from July to December, 1970. The water samples were taken twice a month during the study period of 6 months from 7 points (locations) along the main stream of Han River at Seoul city and 5 points of Nakdong River at Daegu city. The samples ware measured and analyzed in accordance with the recognized methods in the 'Standard Methods for Examination of Water and waste' by American Public Health Association. The obtained results are as follows : I. Han River. 1. Average turbidity was 5.1 units ranging from 1 to 10 units and the turbidity of down stream was higher than that of the upper stream. 2. pH value showed slight alkalinity (mean;7.2) except Yunchang-Dong (6.9). 3. The mean value of Dissolved Oxygen contents (D.O) was 7.2 ppm. (range of 3.4-10.5ppm.). D.O. of the upper stream (8.2 ppm. at Walker Hill boating place, 8.0 ppm. at the Gwangzang Bridge and Ddookdo) was higher than that of he downstream (5.6ppm. at Yumchang-Dong, 6.4 ppm. at the 2nd Han River Bridge), and D.O. in the winter season was higher than that in the summer season, respectively. 4 The mean value of the Biochemical Oxygen Demand (B.O.D.) was 28.3 ppm. (range of 6.2-64.8 ppm.). The mean value of B.O.D. was 48.7 ppm. at Yumchang-Dong, 42.3 ppm. at the 2nd Han River Bridge, 34.0 ppm. at the 1st nan River Bridge, 28.5 ppm. at the 3rd Han River Bridge, 19.2 ppm. at Dookdo, 13.2 ppm. at the Gwangzang Bridge, and 10.2 ppm. at the Walker Hill boating place in order of value. B.O.D. in July and August (35.6 and 34.5 ppm.) were the highest and that in November and December (18.6 and 21.2 ppm.) were the lowest. 5. Suspended Solids (SS) were from 15.0 to 667.0 ppm. with the mean of 222.1 ppm. 'Suspended Solids' of the water samples at Yumchang-Dong and the 2nd Han River Bridge were found to be 378.1 ppm. and 283.9 ppm. respectively which were higher than at the Gwangzang Bridge (134.1 ppm.) and at Walker Hill boating place (79.3ppm.). 6. Coliform colonies counting of the water samples ranged from $0-2,500{\times}10/100ml$. with the mean value of $205.6{\times}10/100ml$. The most contaminated water sample by coliform were from the point of the 2nd Han River Bridge with $640.8{\times}10/100ml$ while the lowest ones were from Walker Hill boating place with $17.2{\times}10/100ml$. There was also a seasonal variation in coliform contamination that is the higher in summer and the lower in winter. II. Nakdong River 1. The mean value of turbidity was 2.3 units with range of 0 to 9.0 units. The highest point was at Geumho River (7.2 units). and the lowest point was at Gangzung and Moonsan (0.45 and 0.41 units). 2. The mean value of pH was 7.5 (range of 7.1-8.5) and highest point was Geumho River with 8.5. 3. The mean value of D.O. was 8.1 ppm. (range of 3.4-11.2 ppm.). D.O. of the upper stream showed higher value than that of the down stream, and the winter season than the summer season. 4. B.O.D. ranged from 2.6 to 57.0 ppm. (mean; 20.4ppm.). The water sample at Geumho River showed the highest value (41.5 ppm.) while at Moonsan and Gangzung showed the lowest (4.6 and 4.7 ppm.). 5. The mean value of suspended solids was 48.7 ppm. (range of 4.0-182.0 ppm.). The highest month was July (63.7ppm.) and August (62.1 ppm.) and the lowest month was October (37.0 ppm.) and December (24.4 ppm.). 6. The mean value of the coliform colonies was $22.7{\times}10/100ml$. (range of $0-243{\times}10/100ml$.). The highest number of the colonies was found in the sample water at the Whawon recreation area ($50.5{\times}10/100ml$.) followed by the Geumho River ($33.9{\times}10/100ml$.), the Goryung Bridge ($28.3{\times}10/100ml$.), Gangzung($0.7{\times}10/100ml$), and Moonsan ($0.6{\times}10/100ml$.).

The purpose of this study was to identify the knowledge contents of basic nursing sciences needed by nurses in the practices of the intensive care unit(ICU). To attain the goal of this study, the nurses working at 10 hospitals in the areas of Seoul and Kangwon Province were randomly selected. They were primarily interviewed, and the open question was secondarily put to them through the questionnaire. In the process of the 1st interview, the interviewees were asked of the question, "What is the knowledge of basic sciences such as anatomy, pathology, physiology. microbiology, pharmacology and the like thought to be lacking when you communicate with doctors in the ICU and when you carry out your nursing practices in it?" The contents of the interview were tape-recorded. The period of data collection ranged from May 1, 2001 to Sept 30. The interviews were conducted with total of 20 nurses. The open-end questionnaire was secondarily mailed to nurses. 113 questionnaires were returned. 100 questionnaires except 13 ones thought to be poorly completed in content were used for data analysis. Three coders classified data obtained from the interview and the questionnaire research into 5 detailed items relating to such as anatomical physiology, pathology, pharmacology. microbiology and basics of nursing. The three coders had experiences in nursing education of 18 years, 8 years and 6 years, respectively, and of them one coder was professor in basic nursing sciences. Data were statistically treated using frequency analysis and percentage by the SAS program. As a result, the following findings were obtained : It was found that the contents that ICU nurses responded were most needed in the field of Human structure and function were water and electrolytic balance(38%), blood and circulatory system(20%), changer in the patient's skin(12%), the arrangement of the human body(10%) and the endocrine system(10%), nervous system(6%), and assessment of the state of the patient's consciousness(4%). It was found that the contents that ICU nurses responded were most needed in the field of pathology were found to be the process of the progress of the disease(32%), symptoms of the disease(27%), prognosis of the disease(22%), followed by the injury-healing process, clinical pathological examination, and examination by radiation. It was found that the contents that nurses responded were most needed in the field of pharmacology were the effect of drug(25%), the side effect of drug(22%), the relationship between diseases and drug(20%), the relationship between disease-causing bacteria and drug(20%) and chemotherapy(2%). It was found that the contents that ICU nurses responded were most needed in the field of microbiology were the relationship between diseases and disease-causing bacteria(45%), Kinds and characteristics of disease-causing bacteria(18%), infection control(16%), application of the aseptic technique(12%), isolation(9%) and the like. It was found that the basic knowledge that ICU nurses responded were needed were the identification of the patient's current state(36%), understanding of the therapeutic process(22%), the operating principle of medical equipment and instrument(20%), medical terminology(9%), equipment and instrument management(7%), calculation of the dose of injection(2%) and the like.

As the population of elderly in Korea is increasing rapidly since the 1990's and will more rapidly in the 21st Century, the demand of their health care would be a great burden to health care expenditure. Then it would be necessary to contemplate the functional status and life satisfaction for elderly to make them live more independently. The objectives of this study were find out the functional status in life and life satisfaction for the elderly aged 65 or over who had resided in urban area of two Gus in Pusan and rural area of two Myuns in Haman Gun in Kyeognam Province, and to provide basic data for planning systematic health care programme. The study period was two weeks from February 6 to February 18, 1995 and the subjects were 274 elderly of which 143 were urban residents, 131 were rural residents, and the study method was by structured questionnaire. The data were analyzed with SAS/PC/sup +/ programme using Chi-square test, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and multiple regression analysis. The results were as follows; 1. To see the pattern of living together, those living with partners were the most common, 39.1% ; 37.8% of urban elderly lived with married sons, 32.2% of them lived with partners, but 46.6% of rural elderly lived with partners, 16.8% of them lived with married sons, which showed difference between residence(p<0.005). 2. Elderly who had jobs were 64.1% in rural residents, and 7.7% in urban residents, which showed significant difference(p<0.05). 3. The score of cognitive function of total subjects was 24.7, that of urban elderly was 23.8, and that of rural elderly was 25.7, then it was higher in rural ones and low for old-elders and those who had no jobs. 4. The score of PADL was 26.8 for urban elderly, 30.1 for rural elderly, and that of IADL was 22.2 for urban elderly, 25.6 for rural elderly, which showed higher activities of daily living for rural elderly than urban elderly(p<0.001). 5. The score of domestic performance was 21.9 for urban elderly, and 30.5 for rural elderly, which showed higher score for rural elderly(p<0.001). 6. The score of life satisfaction was 20.7 for urban elderly, 29.8 for rural elderly, then it was higher for rural elderly(p<0.01). 7. As a result of ANOVA for functional status in living by general characteristics; the score of cognitive function differed by age, job; that of PADL differed by age, job, education, and the pattern of living together, that of IADL differed by age, job, and the pattern of living together. The score of domestic role performance differed by age, job, marital status, and the pattern of living together. 8. ANOVA for life satisfaction showed that the score of life satisfaction differed by job(p<0.001) and the pattern of living together(p<0.01). 9. The correlations between functional status in living and life satisfaction showed that the higher the score of cognitive function was(r=0.39), the higher the score of activities of daily living was(r=0.50), and the higher the score of domestic role performance was(r=0.41), the higher the score of life satisfaction. 10. Stepwise multiple regression analysis for life satisfaction pointed out that residence was responsible for 39.9% of the variance. cognitive function was for 5.3%, and domestic role performance was for 1.2%.

배경: 좌관상동맥 폐동맥 이상 기시증의 수술적 치료 후 좌심실 기능 및 승모판 폐쇄부전의 변화 양상을 분석하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 1986년 4월부터 2002년 7월까지 12명의 환자가 좌관상동맥 폐동맥 이상 기시증으로 외과 교정을 받았다. 연령의 중앙값은 4개월이었고 10명의 환자가 관상동맥 전이술을, 1명이 Takeuchi수술, 1명이 복재정맥을 이용한 관상동맥 우회술을 시행 받았다. 승모판 성형술은 1명에서 동시에 시행하였고 나머지 모든 환자들에서 승모판 폐쇄부전의 정도와 관계없이 승모판에 대한 성형술 및 치환술을 하지 않았다. 결과: 수술로 인한 조기사망은 2명$(16.7\%)$이었으며 평균 추적관찰 기간은 $7.1\pm4.14년(7개월$\sim$13년)이었다. 4명의 환자에서 수술 후 $2.2\pm1.1$일의 순환 보조가 필요하였고 그 중 좌심실 보조 장치를 사용한 경우가 1명 있었다. 수술 후 좌심실 단축율은 $17.7\pm9.6\%$에서 $33.4\pm9.1\%$으로 증가하였고(p<0.05) 좌심실 이완기말 직경의 평균값은 $41.8\pm7.0\;mm에서 $33.1\pm7.3\;mm로(p<0.05), 수축기말 직경의 평균값은 $33.4\pm7.9\;mm에서 $22.2\pm7.5 \;mm로(p<0.05) 각각 감소하였다. 수술 전 승모판 폐쇄부전은 생존 환자 모두에서 수술 후 1년째 시행한 심초음파 검사상호전이 관찰되었고, 이후 4년 추적관찰 도중에도 점진적으로 호전되었다. 추적관찰 도중 2명의 환자가 재수술을 받았는데 수술 후 3도 이상의 승모판 페쇄부전이 남아 승모판 성형술을 시행하거나 Takeuchi수술을 받은 환자에서 우심실 유출로 협착으로 인해 재수술하였다. 걸론: 좌관상동맥 폐동맥 이상 기시증은 수술적 교정, 특히 관상동맥 전이술을 시행한 경우 훌륭한 단기 및 장기 성적을 보였으며 좌심실 기능 및 승모판 페쇄부전증의 개선을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 승모판 폐쇄부전에 대한 동반 수술 적응증에 대한 지표는 지속적으로 탐색해야 할 것이다

Chronic health problems has become a major concern and challenge to the health care professionals today. Especially hypertension, one of the leading primary cause of death in Korea, is a typical chronic disease requiring adequate and continuous management. Though these hypertensives need to maintain desirable health practice by themselves for their life time, many previous studies indicated that most of the essential hypertensives have no specific symptoms and thus, reluctant to follow appropriate medical regimens causing the condition further aggravated and complicated. Self-care is an essential factor that keeps chronic patients in control of their health and wellness. Thus this study was conducted to identify the effect of the comprehensive self-regulation program as a nursing intervention on the promotion self-care performance and improvement in physical parameters of hypertensives. For this purpose, a one group quasi-experimental research with pre and post test design was used. The subjects of the study was consisted of thirty persons with mild or moderate essential hypertension from two companies in Cheong-ju city. The whole program was carried out from October, 1993 to February, 1994. The self-regulation program was consisted with group education on hypertension and self-care, self-regulation including the blood pressure self-monitoring and recording, recording of daily self-care activities, and encouraging and reinforcing self-efficacy through verbal persuation and enactive attainment. The subjects were asked to measure their own blood pressure by themselves twice per day and to record blood pressure and the daily self-care performance according to the instructions provided during the whole period of 9 weeks. The instruments used for data collection in this study were as follows : 1) Instruments used for measuring the knowledge about hypertension, multiple health locus of control, and perceived benifits and barriers were adapted from previous studies and modified by author to be fit for the subjects. 2) Self-efficacy scale and self-care performance record were developed by the author. 3) Physiological parameters included systolic / diastolic blood pressure, body weight, level of blood cholesterol, and 24hour ambulatory blood pressure. The post-experimental Cronbach's Alpha as the reliability test of scales were 0.703-0.897, an appropriate level of confidence. The effect of the program was analyzed by experimental stages ; the first week, the fifth week, and the ninth week since the experimental imput began. Data were analyzed by the SPSS PC+ program with paired t-test and t-test, repeated measure ANOVA, and pearson's correlation to de termine the effect of program. The results were as follows : 1) After the self-regulation program, scores on knowledge(t=-2.41, p=.011), perceived self-efficacy (F=5.60, p=.001), self-care performance(F=22.31, p=.0001) were significantly higher than those before the program. 2) After the program, both systolic and diastolic blood pressure were significantly lower than those before the program(F=10.89 -13.11, p=.0001). However in 24hour ambulatory blood pressure, systolic mean pressure was nearly significantly lower, but not in diastolic mean pressure. 3) After the program, the body weight was significant decresed(t=5.53, p=.0001), but the blood cholesterol level was not decreased significantly except in those cases with higher cholesterol level. 4) There were significant relationships between changes in self-care performance and diastolic pressure at 1st week (r=.3389, p=.033) and changes in self-care performance and systolic pressure at 9th week(r=.3651, p=.024). 5) There were significant relationship between perceived self-efficacy and self-care performance at 5th week(r=.5313, p=.001) and 9th week (r=.3026, p=.052). 6) After the program, internal health locus of control and perceived benefits did not show significant change, but perceived barriers was significantly lower than those before the program (t=3.57, p=.0001). From the above results, it can be concluded that 1) The self-regulation program is an effective nursing strategy to promote self-care performance of hypertensives and to lower the blood pressure. Thus this program can be recommended in the management of the hypertensives in workplaces and community settings. 2) The synthesis of Orem's self-care theory and Bandura's self-regulation & self-efficacy theory in this study was proved to enhance explanation and prediction of the change of self-care behavior. Thus the result of the study would contribute in development of the self-care theory and an expansion of practice-theory.

This study was projected to provide basic data on prenatal care for future direction in maternity and child care, and also to investigate the diet of women during pregnancy and the period directly afterwards in order to offer to mothers appropriate advice for the improvement of nutritional standards. A clinical study on prenatal care was based on 1054 delivery cases. A nutritional survey was performed on 174 mothers admitted to the department of obstetrics at St. Mary's Hospital during the period of March, 1975 to February, 1976. The results obtained are summarized as follows; I. Clinical study on prenatal care 1) The age distribution showed 59.4% of the mothers were between the ages of 25 to 29 years old. 2) The gestational period was highest between the 37th and 40th gestational weeks. 33.7% of the mothers were primigravidae and 31.8% of them primiparae. 3) 41.3% of the mothers had not received prenatal care or had only received it once before. 4) Induced deliveries were 61.8% and spontantaneous deliveries 38.2%. 61.9% of the mothers had received prenatal care, while those without prenatal care accounted for 61.6% of the total induced deliveries. 5) Low birth weights were 7.7% and 5.0% of the mothers had received prenatal care, while 11.5% had no prenatal care. 6) There were 1.13% of still births, 0.32% of the mothers had prenatal care and the remainder did not have prenatal care. 7) Of those receiving prenatal care, 2.1% showed in the $0{\sim}3$ Apgar score group, 6.3% in the $4{\sim}6$ Apgar score group, and 91.6% in the $7{\sim}10$ Apgar score group. Among the non-prenatally cared for group 5.0% of the newborns were in the $0{\sim}3$ Apgar score group, 9.7% were in $4{\sim}6$ Apgar score group and 85.3% were in the $7{\sim}10$ Apgar score group. 8) Obstetrical complications were developed in 11.86% of the pregnant women when they were hospitalized. Among the group receiving the prenatal care 8.1% of the mothers had obstetrical complications. In the group without prenatal care 17.16% of the mothers had obstetrical complications. The most common obstetrical complication was malpresentation. 9) The first prenatal care was received between the 37th and 40th gestationl weeks. II. Food intake during pregnancy The following are the results from the questionnaires of the mothers concerning diets during pregnancy; 1) Main meals and snacks In 32.2% of the cases, their main meals during the diet amounted to more than was usually eaten at other times. In 67.8% of the cases, their main meals during the diet were the same as that usually eaten. In 22.4% of the cases, snacks during the diet amounted to more than usually eaten at other times. In 77.6% of the cases, snacks during the diet were the same as usually eaten. 2) Itemized list The mothers made a special effort to include certain items in their diets, the following is a breakdown of those items; a. egg, meat, fish 33.3% b. fruit, vegetables 32.2%. c. milk, fruit juice 18.4% d. cake, bread 2.9% e. nothing special 13.2% 3) Milk 44.8% of the mothers had at least one cup of milk everyday. 33.4% of the mothers had at least one cup of milk on occasion. 15.5% of the mothers did not have any milk. 4) Vitamins 39.7% of the mothers had vitamins everyday. 24.7% of the mothers had vitamins occasionally. 35.6% of the mothers did not have any vitamins. 5) Anemic symptoms 9.2% of the mothers very often had anemic symptoms during pregnancy. 39.1% of the mothers often had anemic symptoms during pregnancy. 51.7% of the mothers did not have anemic symptoms at all. 6) Taboos on food 23% of the mothers recognized 'taboos' on food during pregnancy 27% of the mothers displayed on uncertainty about the 'taboos' on food during pregnancy 50% of the mothers displayed indifference toward the taboos. III. Nutritional survey on the new mothers diet. 1) The diets for new mothers can be divided into four categories, such as general diet, low sodium diet, soft diet and liquid diet. 2) Cooked rice and seaweed soup were the main foods for the new mothers as has been the traditional diet for Korean mothers. 3) The average diet contained 1,783g. And the average consumption of the basic food groups per capita per day was 1,265g for cereals and grains, 456g for meats and legumes, 58g for fruits and vegetables, 0g for milk and fish and 4g for fats and oils. 4) In addition to the 1,783g of food in the main diet there was also 142.8g of food taken as snacks. 5) The average daily consumption of calories and nutrients was 2,697 Kcal and 123.4g for proteins, 44.9g for fats, 718.2mg for calcium, 14mg for iron, 2,101.4 I.U. for vitamin A, 0.43mg for thiamine, 1.02mg for riboflavin, 15.88mg for niacin, 5.26mg for ascorbic acid. When these figures are compared with the recommended allowances for new mothers in Korea, the calories and nutrients taken in were satisfactory. But the intake of minerals and vitamins was below the recommended allowance.
