During the past decade or so in Korea, 119 relief squad members were supposed to respord first urgent or emergency cases. The primary purpose of this study was to assess what levels of knowledge and techniques in prehospital care the 119 relief squad members showed. Data regarding the knowledge and technique levels were collected from both the 119 relief squad members (n=63) and the emergency room nurses(n=46). The Results indicated that the 119 relief squad when compared to emergency nurses, showed higher scores for knowledge and techniques in some areas of prehospital care but not in other areas, However, no differences in knowledge and technique were found when the ANOVAs were calculated with two covariates : duration of their career in emergency medical services and frequency of their exposure to lectures on emergency medical technology. In addition, many respondents in the 119 relief squad group rated themselves poorly in knowledge and techniques of prehospital care, The findings imply that qualitatively better curricula should be given to the 119 relief squad members before they are allowed to play an important role in the emergency medical service system. These findings are also discussed in the context of improving the emergency medical service system.

Two years ago, an emergency arbitrator procedure in accordance with the international arbitration rule has been finally adopted in Korea?a decade after its introduction. Arbitral institutions provide interim measures in the course of tribunal proceedings to avoid litigation in open court that is often expensive and time-consuming. An emergency arbitrator procedure offers an urgent relief prior to the constitution of an arbitral tribunal, thus enhancing the speed and effectiveness of the arbitration procedure even further. Although most of the arbitral institutions interpret that the emergency arbitration rulings are binding on the parties, enforcing the emergency arbitration provisions have some difficulties in practice, and it is not clear whether or not arbitral interim measures will be enforceable under the newly adopted provisions in Korea. In this study, experiences in other countries are explored in seeking for the possible problems and solutions of enforcing the emergency arbitration rulings. For example, Singapore and Hong Kong insert terms such as "finality," "enforceable in the same manner as an order or direction of the Court," "same effect as an arbitral tribunal or interim measures" in their emergency arbitrator legislation to enhance enforcement. Moreover, "urgency inherent" are considered.

As the human population increases in the world, the ratio of health doctors is rapidly decreasing. Therefore, it is an urgent need to create new technologies to monitor the physical and mental health of people during their daily life. In particular, negative mental states like depression and anxiety are big problems in modern societies. Usually this happens due to stressful situations during everyday activities including work. This paper presents a machine learning approach to reliably estimating the level of human mental stress using wearable physiological sensors. And also, this paper presents an Android- and Arduino-based stress monitoring and relief system.

정부가 시멘트공장 제련소 등 환경오염 취약지역을 대상으로 실시한 주민건강영향조사에서 환경유해인자로 인한 진폐증, 신장손상 등의 건강피해 사례가 나타났다. 그러나 현행 구제관련 법규정이 선언적이어서 구제제도 기반으로는 미흡하여 적정한 구제가 이행되지 못하고 있다. 본 연구는 제도적 관점에서 구제제도를 개선하기 위해 환경유해인자로 인한 건강피해 및 피해구제 사례에 대한 실증적 분석 및 국내 피해구제제도의 문제점 고찰을 통해 구제제도의 개선방향을 제안함을 목적으로 한다. 국내 건강피해 구제제도의 문제점은 첫째, 환경보건법 등 현행 관련법이 구제장치로서의 부족, 둘째, 환경오염피해의 특수성으로 인한 건강피해 분쟁 및 소송상 불법행위 성립요건의 확인과 인과관계 입증의 어려움이다. 제도의 개선방향으로는 첫째, 환경성질환의 개념과 범위규정에 있어 기존 열거방식에 포괄규정 방식을 병용하는 것이다. 둘째, 구제제도에 공법적 성격을 가미함으로써 인과관계의 인정을 용이하게 하고 입증책임부담을 완화하는 것이다. 셋째, 원인자 확인이 어렵거나 구제조치를 기대할 수 없는 경우에는 원인자의 범위를 확장하여 구제의 실효성을 높이는 것이다. 국민의 환경권이 충실히 보장되기 위해서는 본 연구의 제도개선 방향으로 현행 건강피해 구제제도를 개선하는 것이 시급하다.

The surge of cross border trade and transactions has seen international arbitration fast emerging as the preferred mode of dispute resolution. This phenomenon is especially remarkable in the Asian region. The Singapore International Arbitration Centre ("SIAC") aspires to contribute to this growth as one of the leading arbitral institutions. The objective of this article is to provide an insight into the key features of SIAC Rules. This article has been divided into two parts; the first part discusses how the SIAC Rules are helpful in building bridges in international arbitration between the common law and civil law systems. We have attempted to throw light on how the SIAC Rules may be tailored by the parties to bring about a harmonization in the common law and civil law practices in the conduct of the arbitration proceedings. In the second part of the article, we discuss the two most popular procedures introduced in the SIAC Rules in 2010 i.e. 'Emergency Arbitration' and 'Expedited procedures'. The emergency arbitration provisions enable a party to obtain order(s)/award for urgent interim relief(s) upon commencement of arbitral proceedings but pending the constitution of the main Tribunal. The expedited Procedure provisions give parties the option of having their disputes determined in six (6) months from the date of the constitution of the tribunal.

Arbitration has grown a unique resolving method for international commercial disputes. However, it has considered a similar court process, such as interim relief, during arbitration proceedings. Further, it would be asked for urgent measures before the arbitrators are constituted in the proceedings. In this case, the disputing party has to apply in the court. This is an unattractive factor in international arbitration; therefore, some institutions are trying to reform such an inconvenient system by adopting the emergency arbitrator. The purpose of this study is to look into ways of utilizing the emergency arbitrator for effective dispute resolution in shipbuilding and shipping industries. The emergency arbitrator needs to solve problems such as making a decision on leaving cargos in the ship, matters involving a ship arrest, or issues regarding vessels under construction. In order to utilize the emergency arbitrator system, it needs to make a close partnership with related institutions, prepare Korean-style standard shipbuilding and shipping contracts, and provide training programs for new emergency arbitrators and staff of institutions. Next, the arbitration institution has to have a great working relationship with a court. Finally, it should try to implement a new system, such as on-line service, for the procedures of the emergency arbitrator.

This study aims to create a disaster management system after an earthquake. Japan's earthquake disaster management system, including the Disaster Countermeasures Basic Act, addresses all of the disaster phases of prevention, mitigation, preparedness and emergency response as well as recovery and reconstruction with roles and responsibilities among the national and local governments clearly defined. Korea's earthquake disaster management system are including the Disaster Countermeasures Basic, but when the 9.12 earthquake occurred, problems such as insufficient early response, study on the earthquake lack were revealed. This study conducted a field survey and analyzed coping process after Po Hang earthquake. Therefore, this study have found that Disaster Management Headquarters are operated rapidly. They are coped with urgent safety inspection for damage facilities and soil liquefaction with advanced equipment. And The headquarters interviewed with victims. So they found out What the victims needed. However, when carrying out relief activities, Research of temporary housing and allocation of donations was not rapid. Further, this study have found that earthquake specialists were lack and disaster information transfer was not working. This study will be utilized as fundamental data in planning disaster management system after an earthquake.

Objectives: The study investigated constipation in male and female high school students and in order to provide data base for development of education and intervention programs aimed at preventing and managing constipation in high school students. Methods: The study used a technique of convenience sampling to mobilize the entire students in an academic high school in D region. Of the combined 360 copies of questionnaire distributed, 340 copies were collected and used for the final analysis. The gathered data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, and ${\chi}^2-test$ in SPSS 21. Results: The ratio of female students with constipation is significantly higher than that of male students with the condition(${\chi}^2=5.73$, p=0.017), and there were significant differences in exercise habits(${\chi}^2=26.75$, p<0.001), eating habits(${\chi}^2=43.19$, p<0.001), and bowel habits(${\chi}^2=22.96$, p<0.001) between female students and male students. Also there was significant difference in water intake between the normal group and the constipation group(${\chi}^2=10.01$, p=0.040). Significant differences between the two groups were also discovered in the level of perception of constipation(${\chi}^2=98.76$, p<0.001), bowel movement time(${\chi}^2=15.74$, p=0.008), and use of laxatives(${\chi}^2=17.68$, p<0.001) and enema(${\chi}^2=16.97$, p<0.001) for constipation relief. Conclusions: To prevent and manage constipation in high school students, education about healthy dietary, and bowel habits is required. Also there is an urgent need to improve the school toilet environment in order to respect the rights of students to void or defecate when necessary, a process which will require involvement of students, teachers, and other school staff.

Intractable pain arising from disorders of the viscera and somatic structures within the pelvis and perineum often poses difficult problems for the pain pratitioner. The reason for this difficulty is that the region contains diverse anatomic structures with mixed somatic, visceral, and autonomic innervation affecting bladder and bowel control and sexual function. Clinically, sympathetic pain in the perineum has a distinctly vague, burning, and poorly localized quality and is frequently associated with the sensation of urgency. Although various approaches have been proposed for the management of intractable perineal pain, their efficacy and applications are limited. Historically, neurolytic blockade in this region has been focused mainly on somatic rather than sympathetic components. The efficacy of neurolytic ganglion impar block has been demonstrated in treating perineal pain without significant somatovisceral dysfunctions for patient with advanced cancer in 1990. The introduction of superior hypogastric plexus block in 1990 demonstrated its effectiveness in patients with cancer related pelvic pain. In our report, five patients had advanced cancer (rectal caner 3; cervix cancer 1; metastases to sacral portion of renal cell cancer 1). Localized perineal pain was present in all cases and was characterized as burning and urgent with 9~10/10 pain intensity. After neurolytic block of ganglion impar, patients experiened incomplete pain reduction (7~8/10), as determined by the VAS (visual analogue scale), and change in pain site. We then treated with superior hypogastric plexus block, which produced satisfactory pain relief (to less than 4/10), without complication.
