  • According to the provisions of the United Nations, the proportion was 65 years of age or older population is 7% more than in the total population aged society. Due to the rapid decrease fertility and medical technologies and the improvement of living standards, the average life expectancy has emerged as an aging society. In the case of our country, and in 2011 the proportion of the population aged 65 and over 11.4%, the future is even faster aging rate is expected to launch in 2026, the super aged society. The days went by relying on caring for personal piety. Nursing crime is often due to the patriarchal family culture and afford. To care for patients with severe human or plant in the home, not to assume that society. Expanding the scope of long-term care insurance service person and the family burden reduced through measures to apply for health insurance, nursing care can prevent crime.

  • In Korea, the elderly is defined as the person aged over 65 and the disabled is defined as the person who is registered with Ministry of Health and Welfare. In 2008, the elderly with disabilities was about 770,000. Korea was already poised for an aging society in 2000 and is ahead of and aged society in 2018 and a super aged society in 2026. So, the number of the elderly with disabilities will continue to grow. Various oral diseases can be seen in the elderly with disabilities due to the systemic disease and impaired self oral care, in addition to the physiological aging. Particularly, we should be care for the aspiration pneumonia, which is the major cause of the death of the elderly. As a professional for the special care dentistry, we should understand the general and dental, individual characteristics of the elderly with disabilities and do proper oral care and treatment. Thereby, the quality of life of the patients might be improved.

  • According to the statistics, Korea is expected to reach a super-aged society in 2025. In preparation for an aging society, The government is making efforts to improve in social activity and welfare for the elderly people. But in case of people who live in urban-rural mixed cities, They can not benefit from traffic convenience that is essential in social activities. For example, surveys and interviews show that, The dwellers(65+ of some urban-rural mixed cities) have many restrictions on social activities because of mobility disadvantage. Therefore, We propose that expansion for the people who need to use the voucher taxi, Increase of the public bus service and rebuilding of the bus stop terminal. We are looking forward to this study will be used as basic data for transportation policy of urban-rural mixed cities across the country.

  • At the time of entering the super-aged society, the health problem of the elderly is becoming more prominent due to the rapid digital era caused by COVID-19, but the gap between welfare budgets and welfare benefits according to regional characteristics is still not narrowed and there is a significant difference in emergency medical access. In response, this study proposes an ICT-based New Normal Smart Care System (NNSCS) to bridge the gap I n health and medical problems. This is an integrated system model that links the elderly themselves to health care, self-diagnosis, disease prediction and prevention, and emergency medical services. The purpose is to apply location-based technology and motion recognition technology under smartphones and smartwatches (wearable) environments to detect health care and risks, predict and diagnose diseases using health and medical big data, and minimize treatment latency. Through the New Normal Smart Care System (NNSCS), which links health care, prevention, and rapid emergency treatment with easy and simple access to health care for the elderly, it aims to minimize health gaps and solve health problems for the elderly.

  • Most advanced countries that are members of the World Physiotherapy have established a 4-year education system or specialized graduate school system for physical therapists based on national standards. They have also expanded their laws and systems to provide physical therapists with the autonomy and independence to offer services in their clinics. However, compared with developed countries in North America and Europe, there are issues with the autonomy and independence of physical therapists in Korea related to national regulations. Social status and recognition of the profession are also lagging. Korea is expected to become a super-aged society by 2025. To reduce the financial burden of healthcare and welfare on the government, it is necessary to extend the time spent by older adults on independent activities and minimize their time spent using medical services. To achieve this goal and maximize the active life of older adults, a plan to efficiently use licensed physical therapists in the country should be prepared. Korea should increase the license utilization rate of physical therapists to reduce waste at the national level and increase the professional hope of the younger generations of physical therapists. To create a healthcare policy focusing on the use of physical therapy personnel, similar to that in advanced countries, it is necessary to unify educational systems and produce excellent physical therapists. Providing professional autonomy can help physical therapists develop a sense of job satisfaction. Outstanding talent will choose physical therapy as a profession if they can see hope for their future careers, and if physical therapy services in Korea are similar to those delivered in advanced countries, physical therapy in Korea can develop into a healthcare service that people desire.

  • 반려동물은 인간에게 신체적, 정신적, 사회적으로 유익한 효과를 주고 있어 코로나19(COVID-19)시대를 살아가는 우리에게 큰 위안을 준다. 또한 지금은 4차 산업혁명의 정보통신기술의 융합 시대이기도 하다. 초고령사회를 눈앞에 둔 우리나라는 OECD 국가 중 1위인 자살률은 정서적인 안정에 효과적인 반려동물이 답이 될 수 있다. 본 연구는 65세 이상의 노인들이 20% 이상 되는 초고령사회를 눈앞에 둔 대한민국이 해결해야 할 문제 중 하나인 노인의 정서적 안정에 효과가 큰 반려동물에 관한 연구이다. 반려동물에 대한 양육 지식이 양육 만족도에 미치는 영향을 관리수준과 전염병인식을 통하여 조사하였다. 반려동물의 관리수준은 반려동물의 양육만족도에 매우 유의깊게 (p<0.001) 영향을 미쳤지만, 전염병인식은 통계적인 의미가 없었다 (p>0.05). 반려동물의 양육 지식을 갖고 양육을 하면 양육 만족도는 높아지고, 보다 행복한 삶을 누릴 수 있다. 반려동물에 대한 양육지식은 개인적인 학습도 중요하지만 정책적인 배려로 교육기관을 통한 교육을 뒷받침하는 것 또한 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

  • As Korea is expected to become super high aged society in 2026, nutrition is important elements of health in the elderly and affects their life. In epidemiological surveys, anthropometric and biochemical measurements represent important components of nutritional assessment in elderly. In the present study, we investigated anthropometric index, biochemical markers, and nutrient intake for elderly aged over 85 by using data on 71 elderly (24 men, 47 women) over 85 years which was obtained from Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2009. According to BMI values, the prevalence of underweight and obesity was 9.7% and 34.5% in men, and 7.9% and 26.4% in women. The prevalence of sarcopenia was 70.7% in men and 25.0% in women. However, plasma biochemical data are normal range in the older population. In nutrients intake, daily Intake of energy, protein, dietary fiber, water, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, calcium, and potassium was inadequate considering the Dietary Reference Intakes for Koreans(KDRIs). In conclusion, elderly need to be educated nutrition and their health dietary life to prevent malnutrition, and standard of nutrition intake should be rearranged in elderly aged 85 over considering their antrhopometric index.

  • 부산광역시는 2000년 고령화사회에 진입한 이후, 2011년 기준 고령화율이 7대 도시중 가장 높은 11.8%에 이르고 있다. 또한 전체인구 및 평균세대원수가 감소하는 가운데 65세 이상 고령인구는 급격히 증가하고 있어 2020년 이후 고령화율이 20%를 상회하는 초고령사회로의 진입이 예상된다. 이에 본 연구는 그 동안의 고령층의 주거 관련분석이 동단위로 이루어져 보다 미시적인 분석의 필요성 증가에 따라 2000년부터 2010년 사이에 조사된 센서스 집계 구단위의 공간분석을 실시하였다. 이를 활용하여 고령인구의 밀집지역, 급증지역, 고밀지역등과 같은 관심지역을 1차 추출하여 미시적인 위치와 공간상의 분포 패턴을 분석하였다. 분석결과 고령인구는 도심과 그 인접지역인 고지대에 밀집해 있었으며, 특정 집계구의 경우 10년간 증가속도가 30배 이상으로 나타났다. 이러한 지역의 국지적 수준의 분포 특성을 살펴보면, 부산시 원도심에 고령인구의 편중이 심화되고 있고, 2000년부터 2010년까지 부산의 전반적 분포 패턴에서는 고령인구가 점점 분산되고 있는 것을 확인했다. 이는 이전의 관련연구 결과와 대치되는 결과로 향후 초고령사회 진입에 따른 사회적 비용의 경감과 고령층의 삶의 질 개선을 위한 공간적 차원의 대응을 위한 기초자료로의 활용이 기대된다.

  • This research investigates the feasibility of using the thermoelectric power to monitor the thermal embrittlement in 2507 super duplex stainless steel (SDSS) exposed to a temperature between $280^{\circ}C$ and $500^{\circ}C$. It is well known that the precipitation of Cr-rich ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ phase as a result of the spinodal decomposition is the major cause of the embrittlement and the loss of corrosion resistance in this material. The specimens are thermally aged at $475^{\circ}C$ for different holding times. A series of mechanical testing including the tensile test, Vickers microhardness measurement, and Charpy impact test are conducted to determine the property changes with holding time due to the embrittlement. The mechanical strengths and ferrite hardness exhibit very similar trends. Scanning electron microscopy images of impactfractured surfaces reveal a ductile to brittle transition in the fracture mode as direct evidence of the embrittlement. It is shown that the thermoelectric power is highly sensitive to the thermal embrittlement and has an excellent linear correlation with the ferrite hardness. This paper, therefore, demonstrates that the thermoelectric power is an excellent nondestructive evaluation technique for detecting and evaluating the $475^{\circ}C$ embrittlement of field 2507 SDSS structures.
