Recently with the entrance to the aging society, the demand on health care services is being increased. However, there are still few GUI types of research considering the characteristics of new-silver generation progressively preparing for their golden(old) age. As the new-silver generation showed less reluctance to the information acquired through the Internet comparing to general seniors, but it is urgent to conduct researches about GUI of mobile healthcare services considering their physical, psychological and social characteristics. Hence, the purpose of this study was to propose some guidelines of GUI evaluation so that new-silver generation being emerged as main consumer group in future medical consumption could efficiently use mobile health care services. As the research methods, first, this study analyzed the characteristics of new-silver generation through reviewing literature and previous studies and understood the status quo of mobile health care services, and second, it analyzed the visual composition factors being preferred in each field of current mobile healthcare application and drew out a usability evaluation matrix of mobile GUI design appropriate for elderly people's characteristics. Third, with the drawn evaluation matrix, this study conducted the usability evaluation of 8 subjects in new-silver generation ranging from 57 years old to 65 years old through a heuristic way. This study expects that it would be contributed in increasing the GUI usability by proposing some guidelines for GUI being appropriated for new-silver generation user's characteristics, and thinks that researches about developing health-care mobile applications will be continued in future at the same time.

This study has a purpose of analyzing the difference of care giver's subjective awareness of self-efficacy and job satisfaction according to the types of welfare facilities, before studying the structural relationship between the management variables about workers at the welfare facilities for improving the quality of elderly medical welfare service. As a result of empirical analysis, there was no awareness difference of care givers according to the types of the elderly medical welfare facilities, but in general it was emphasized that the care givers' satisfaction with self-efficacy and job satisfaction was very essential in providing the elderly medical service. Therefore, this study has significance that it provided the theoretical fundament for efficient management method about the workers of the elderly medical welfare facilities.

The increase of the aged according to the prolongation of the average life and the phenomenon of the nuclear familization according to civilization or industrialization is being problem for not Japan but also our nation. Nevertheless, the authorities were not interesting to an old impidement man. But nowdays, our goverement intends to deal with demertia patient or old man such a problem by the foundation of rementia center over the country. Even though having many problem to have to check the problems, the preparation of legal and systematic equipment etc., for our goverment will have to prepare all measures for unmovable man to live leisurly in their home by analysing the management of social welfare system of the advanced country or Japan.

기존의 u-HealthCare 서비스는 환자에 대해서 일정한 공간에서의 센서의 on/off 타입에 대한 모니터링/환자관리의 서비스를 제공하였다. 이러한 환경하에서의 주된 서비스는 현재 환자의 상태에 대한 수동적인 형태이다. 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 센서 데이터에 대한 연속센서 데이터마이닝 기법을 이용한다. USN의 응용서비스인 u-HealthCare 서비스는 센서데이터로부터 생체정보 및 위치정보를 이용하여 환자/보호자/관련 의료진에게 필요한 정보를 제공한다. 이것은 환자에 대한 관리/모니터링뿐만 아니라 환자의 상태에 따른 센싱(sensing)된 데이터를 이용한 패턴(pattern), 예측-(prediction), 이상치(outlier)를 분석함으로써 보다 나은 서비스를 제공할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 센서 데이터에 대해 새로운 연속 센서데이터 마이닝 기법을 적용하여 질의를 통해 지식을 추출하고 보다 지능화된 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 응용서비스 기법을 제안한다.

The aged population increasing rapidly, the population rate of over 65 years old was over 7.5% in 2000 in Korea. It means that Korea is aging society. But, the aged welfare accommodation are still insufficient and more facilities accommodating the aged should be built. This situations made a new concept of silver town of the welfare facility for the aged. The purpose of this study was to find the difference of preferences about silver town between elderly group and pre-elderly group in Chungseo province. Focused on housing type and space composition of silver town, the results of this study will provide some useful information for the development of silver town and for further studies. It is very important to refer to the preference about silver town of elderly group and pre-elderly group for planing the silver town. Main results of this study showed that silver town was the most preferable elderly housing alternative for elderly group. And silver town should be provided health care center for elderly group.

현대 사회가 고령화 사회로 빠르게 접어들면서 노인에 대한 의료 복지 서비스의 필요성은 증가하였다. 그러나 의료비 상승과 관련 인력 부족으로 노인 의료 환경 조성에 대안 시스템의 개발이 요구되었고, 이에 따라 IT 기술을 이용한 U-Health 시스템이 발달하고 있다. 본 논문은 가속도 감지 센서와 무선 통신, 인터넷을 이용하여 노인을 대상으로 하는 USilverCare용 노인 건강 관리 시스템의 서비스의 시나리오를 구상하고 구현한다.

The silver cation has broad-spectrum antibiotic activity toward Gram-positive, Gram-negative, fungal. aerobic and anerobic micro-organisms. Silver has been used to care of infected wound. pyogenic arthritis, and chronic osteomyelitis. The purpose of this study was to determine whether pure silver wire iontophoresis using milliamperage direct current has an inhibitory effect on growth in vitro of 3 different species of bacteria-Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Using agarose based media, silver iontophoresis performed at 0, 1, 2, 4, 8 mA for 15 minutes. All experiments were performed in triplicate. Following iontophoresis, inhibition zone width of bacterial growth was measured with calliper. The inhibition of bacterial growth occured at the anodal silver electrode. Inhibition zone width of bacterial growth was significantly increased in all three bacterial species (p<0.05). Between bacterial species, inhibition zone width was not significantly different. Inhibition gone and amperage showed a highly significant positive linear relationship (p<0.001). The result of this study showed that pure silver wire iontophoresis with milliamperage direct current, as well as microamperage direct current, can inhibit bacterial growth in vivo.

This study introduces trends on silver care implemented with the fourth industrial revolution technology, and discusses the use of digital technology for elderly health and rehabilitation by reviewing relevant literature to examine and present directions for future digital-based silver care commercialization. First, health smart home, which is a smart residential service available through digital technology or IT technology that supports independent living in your home, is available. Second, there are technical services using artificial intelligence(AI) and robots. Robots based on advanced intelligence can serve as an assistant for the health and rehabilitation of senior citizens by supporting services that enable the daily lives of senior, checking their health conditions, and high-quality medical care. For the commercialization of these silver care systems, information and services appropriate to the current situation, such as the physical ability and health status of the elderly, should be provided, and it would be desirable to gradually expand the use of essential technology to reflect the needs of the elderly in use so that the digital alienated.
