Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of self-care intervention using a mobile instant messenger on hemodialysis patient's knowledge, self-efficacy, self-care behavior and physiological indices. Methods: A non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used. The participants consisted of 38 patients who had a regular hemodialysis of Seoul National University Hospital. They were assigned to one of two groups; an experimental group (n = 19) that had self-care intervention for 8 weeks and a control groups (n = 19) that had routine hemodialysis treatment. The data collection was conducted from September 5, 2022 to October 29, 2022. The date were analyzed by Chi-square test, Independent t-test, and Fisher's exact test using SPSS Win 29 program. Results: There was a significant difference in self-efficacy (t = 3.42, p = .002) between experimental and control groups. There was no significant differences between the two groups in knowledge (t = 0.80, p = .428), self-care behavior (t = 0.09, p = .929), potassium (t = -0.82 p = .416), phosphorus (t = -0.03, p = .974), weight gain (t = 0.16, p = .867). Conclusion: Based on above results, it was verified that self-care intervention in this study was an effective indicator in improving the self-efficacy. There is a requirement to formulate comprehensive interventions capable of enhancing various indicators.

Purpose: In this study factors affecting quality of life in mothers who have children with precocious puberty were identified. Methods: The participants were 102 mothers of children with precocious puberty. From September 12 to September 30, 2016, data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS/WIN 22.0. Results: Regression analysis showed that the model's explanatory power was 45%(F=28.71, p<.001). Role stress (t=-4.83, p<.001), objective burden (t=-2.71, p<.001), and average monthly income (t=4.12, p<.001) were factors affecting quality of life among these mothers. The most influential factor was role stress (${\beta}=-.41$), which showed a negative correlation. Conclusion: Role stress and objective burden were major factors that decreased the quality of life in these. The findings indicate that effective strategy programs for reducing role stress and objective burden are necessary to improve the quality of life in mothers of children with precocious puberty.

Purpose : The aim of this study was to identify the factors influencing nursing performance in caring for patients with delirium. Methods: This study included 166 nurses who worked for more than 6 months at 4 general hospitals in Jeju Province, South Korea. Patients were administered a self-reported questionnaire. The study was carried out from May 20, 2014, to June 19, 2014. Data analyses were conducted using stepwise multiple regression, Pearson's correlation coefficients, t-test, and analysis of variance using the SAS WIN 9.2 program (SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA). Results: The factors associated with nurses' performance in delirium care were work position (${\beta}=.22$, t=2.58, p <.001) and having received education on delirium care (${\beta}=.16$, t=2.24, p=.026). Conclusion: The results showed that the nurses' work position and having received education on delirium care affected nursing performance in delirium care. In order to improve nurses' performance in delirium care, hospitals should provide a delirium education program for nurses and establish standard guidelines on delirium care.

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to offer necessary data to develop nursing interventions to reduce intravenous injection pain and uneasiness among hospitalized children. Methods: A total of 200 patients aged 1-72 months were selected. Pain during intravenous cannulation was assessed using the Procedural Behavior Checklist (PBCL) and the Faces Pain Rating Scale (FPRS). Data were analyzed by t-test and ANOVA using the SPSS/WIN 12.0. Results: Younger patients showed higher pain response than older patients (F=33.87, p<.001). Children with respiratory diseases showed higher responses in FPRS and PBCL than children without respiratory disease (F=4.17, p=.017; F=25.31, p<.001, respectively). Children of preschool age showed higher pain response during IV cannulation than the comparison group (t=2.04, p=.045). Children who had previous experiences with hospitalization and injections showed higher response to pain than those without these experiences (t=2.05, p=.045). In regards to FPRS, patients who were recannulated showed more painful restarts compared with patients injected just once (t=-3.60, p<.001). In regards to PBCL, infants and toddlers (t=-4.88, p<.001) and preschoolers (t=-3.86, p<.001) showed high pain scores during recannulation. Conclusion: A sick child's response to pain may be worse as they feel more pain over time. These characteristics should be considered for development of nursing interventions.

본 연구는 간호의 질을 향상시키기 위해 간호사를 위한 환자안전보고촉진전략을 개발하고 평가하기 위한 것으로, 구축-실행-평가단계로 진행하였다. 구축단계는 분석과 검증의 하위단계로 구성되는데, 분석단계에서는 문헌고찰과 현장연구의 단계로 구성되고, 검증의 단계는 두 명의 전문가에 의해 평가받는 과정을 거쳤다. 이 단계를 통해 환자안전보고시스템, 교육자료, 홍보계획, 보상으로 구성된 환자안전보고촉진전략을 개발하였다. 실행단계에서는 구축단계에서 개발된 내용을 일개 병원에서 근무 중인 간호사 51명을 대상으로 12주간의 중재 후, 활용 후 만족도, 스트레스인식, 업무성과정도를 전-후 점수를 비교하여 살펴보았다. 본 연구의 설계는 단일군 전후설계를 적용하였고 서술통계 및 paired t-test 를 SPSS WIN 18.0을 활용하여 분석하였다. 중재 후 업무성과는 3.62점에서 3.75점으로 유의하게 향상시켰다(t=2.653, p=.009). 반면 환자안전보고촉진전략의 활용이 대상자들의 직무 스트레스를 증가시킬 것이라는 가정 하에 중재 전-후 점수를 비교한 결과 중재 전 3.06점에서 중재 후 3.13으로 약간 증가하였으나 통계적으로 유의한 변화를 보이지 않았다(t=.785, p=.434). 따라서 본 연구에서 개발한 전략은 많은 임상환경에 적용할 수 있을 것이고 간호사를 위한 환자안전보고를 촉진하는데 도움을 줄 수 있는 프로그램이라 사료된다.
