This study was performed as a part of survey for the operation and interim evaluation of the on-going pilot project of community health in Jeomdong-Myon, Yeoju-Gun, Kyunggi-Province since 1982. Seven Villages (Ri) were selected purposively for the survey from a total of 26 villages in Jeomdong-Myon, target area, under the consideration of the socio-economic background and the distribution of health resources. The target population was the women in age group of 15-44 years in that area and a total of 156 women were interviewed. This study was done by the interview survey using questionnaire which was composed with questions about MCH and FP. The results were as follows; 1) ln the status of maternal health, (1) the proportion of receiving antenatal care was relatively high (67.1%) in this area, but the starting time of antenatal care was delayed to 7 months or more of gestational period in 22 percent. Therefore some intervention would be necessary for advancing the time of antenatal care. (2) The proportion of home delivery was decreased according to the rank of birth-order. And more than 50 percent of delivery attendants were mothers-in-law or neighbors. The fact indicates that the health education for non-professional delivery attendents would be necessary for improving home delivery and the content of education would be preferable to focussing to the method of hygienic delivery attending. (3) The comprehensive health service and education would be recommended for the postnatal care, because of the extremely low rate of postnatal care in this area. 2) In the status of child health, (1) the pro-portion of breast feeding was 90.2 percent, and the weaning started after 12 months of birth in 12.7 percent. This indicates the necessity of education about the weaning program. (2) The proportion of completed basic vaccination was 39.6% and the main reason of missing vaccination was poor accessibility in terms of time. For that, the supply of vaccine to primary health care units (health subcenters) should be continuous, not infrequent nor occassional. 3) The proportion of respondants who were using contraceptive methods currently was 79.8 percent and in 44.7 percent they accepted the permanent contraceptive methods. Those results are distinct in this area. But it seems a serious health problem that 53.2 percent of respondants were experienced the induced abortion for birth control.

The purpose of this study was to investigate moral reasoning among 77 senior medical students. Data were collected through selfreported questionnaires in June, 1995. The short form of the DIT (Rest's Defining Issues Test) was adopted to measure the stage of moral development, which was classified with the stage 2(instrumental relativist orientation), the stage 3(interpersonal concordance), the stage 4(law and order), the stage 5A(societal consensus), and the stage 5B(intuitional humanism), stage 6(universal ethical practice). In particular, the level of principled thinking(P) was measured by summing those scores of the stages 5A, 5B, and 6. The possible range of P is O to 95. The data were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA. The results were as follows. 1. The mean score of P(%) was 44.67 (SD=12.82). And the mean score of the stage 5A was higher than the scores of other stages. The mean score of P was not significantly different by general characteristics of the students. 2. The mean score of the stage 5B revealed significant difference by religion (3.17, P=.019) ; The score was highest in buddhist (8.0), which was followed by protestant (6.1), catholic (5.6) and no religion (4.7). 3. The mean score of the stage 4 revealed significant difference by educational background of mother (3.24, P=.017) ; the Score was highest in graduate school (25.0), which was followed by high school (14.1), under-graduate school (13.9), elementary school (12.4), middle school (8.3).

Purpose: This study aims to develop preliminary items for measuring the perceived service quality of clinical trials among participants and to verify content validity. Methods: This study was designed as a methodological study. A conceptual framework was established based on Brady and Cronin's hierarchical model, and preliminary items were prepared through translation-back-translation, a review of existing instruments, and in-depth interviews with clinical trial participants and clinical research coordinators. The final items were completed through content validity testing by experts and a review of items by clinical trial participants for the prepared preliminary items. Results: Through this study, a set of 58 items across four domains (quality of interaction with researchers, the physical environment, performance procedures, and performance results) and 9 components (information·education·communication, trust, respect for participant preferences, securing facilities and space, accessibility, comfortability, informed consent, coordination of care, subjective understanding of clinical trials) on the service quality of clinical trials were completed. The scale content validity index of all preliminary items was 0.96, meeting the recommended standards. The individual-item content validity index also meets the recommended criteria for most items, excluding four items. Conclusion: This study holds significance in developing items to measure the quality of clinical trial execution from the perspective of participants. By verifying the reliability and validity of these items through subsequent research, it is expected that they can be utilized as a valuable instrument to devise strategies for improving the quality of clinical trials.

This research analyzed. knowledge structure and its effect factor by analysis of co-author and keyword network in Korea's health policy and administration sector. The data was extracted from 339 articles listed in the Korean Journal of Health Policy and Administration, and was transformed into a co-author and keyword matrix. In this matrix the existence of a link was defined by impact factors which were calculated by the weight value of what the role was and the rate of how many authors contributed. We demonstrated that the research achievement was dependent on the author's status and network index. Analysis methods were neighborhood degree, correspondence analysis, multiple regression and the difference of weight distribution by research fields. Co-author networks were developed as closeness centrality as well as degree centrality by a few high productivity researchers. In particular, power law distribution was discovered in impact factor and research productivity. The effect of the author's role was significant in both the impact factor calculated by the participatory rate and the number of listed articles. Especially, this journal shared its major researchers who had a licensed physician with the Journal of Preventive Medicine and Public Health. Therefore, social scientists were likely to be small co-author network differently from natural scientists. It was so called 'two cultures' phenomenon. This study showed how can we verified academic research structure existed in the unit of journal like as citation networks. The co-author networks in the field of health policy and administration had more differentiated and clustered than preventive medicine and epidemiology fields.

정신질환자는 대체로 병식이 전혀 없거나 자발적 치료의지가 없는데, 그에 따라 치료가 어렵고 그 고통은 주로 가족에게 전가된다. 그에 따라 환자를 직접 대면하여 진료하지 않고 가족과의 면담을 통해 예후를 관찰하여 진단하는 비대면진료 및 가족을 통해 몰래 투약이 이루어지는 비고지투약이 이루어질 수 있고, 이는 필요악으로 여겨지기도 했다. 이러한 정신건강의학과 진료의 특수성이나 가족들이 받는 고통 등 현실적인 측면을 고려하더라도 환자 몰래 약을 투약하는 등 동의 없는 치료는 의료법 위반은 물론 강제입원처럼 정신질환자에 대한 인권침해의 소지가 크다. 무엇보다도 이를 뒤늦게 환자가 알게 되는 경우에는 환자와 가족, 의사 사이의 신뢰가 완전히 깨지고 치료를 절대적으로 거부하는 상황이 발생한다. 여러 사정을 고려하여 그 예외적 허용요건을 제시한 일본의 치바(千葉)판결은 구체적 타당성을 도모하는 하나의 해결책이 될 수도 있다. 그러나 비고지투약을 예외적으로 허용하고 이를 일시적인 조치로서 허용하려는 의도와 달리 이는 현실적으로 장기적인 비고지투약으로 이어지고 치료적 대화를 통한 치료 및 투약은 완전히 단절될 수 있다는 점을 감안할 때 올바른 해결책이 아니다. 결국, 치료적 대화의 복원을 통해 이 문제를 근본적으로 접근하고 대안을 모색할 필요가 있다.

일시 출입자로 분류된 핵의학과 출입 환경미화원은 주기적으로 타과와 업무순환을 하고, 또한 작업 시간과 환경 등의 변화가 많기 때문에 관리하기에 어려운 점이 있으며 따라서 이들의 분류를 명확히 할 필요가 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 핵의학과에서 근무하는 환경미화원의 피폭 상황을 분석하여 일시 출입자로 분류된 조건의 타당성에 대하여 검토해 보고 작업 환경의 변화 및 근무 시간의 조절이 필요한가를 알아보았다. 우선 먼저 PET실과 혈액 검사실에서 근무하는 환경미화원과 감마 카메라실에서 근무하는 환경 미화원 2명을 대상으로 한 달간 근무 시간 중에 OSL을 각각 착용시켜 개인 피폭 선량을 측정하였다. 둘째로 survey meter를 이용하여 두 명의 환경미화원의 작업 환경, 근무 형태에 따라 시간대 별로 핵의학과 내 14개 구역을 선정, 총 10회 공간 선량률을 측정한 결과 이들의 피폭 선량은 연간 1mSv를 초과하지 않았으며, survey meter를 이용하여 조사한 결과 또한 연간 1 mSv를 초과하지 않을 것으로 추정되지만 그 수치가 1 mSv에 근접하였다. 따라서 일시 출입자로써의 분류를 좀 더 명확히 하기 위해서는 PET 안정실과 같은 피폭이 상대적으로 많은 구역에서의 노출 확률을 줄이기 위하여 이들에게 방사선 관리 구역내 교육을 실시하고, 또한 근무시간 및 근무 형태를 적절히 변경한다면 이들의 피폭 선량은 확연히 줄어들 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives: This article aimed to compare alcohol consumption between the populations of Queensland in Australia and Alberta in Canada. Furthermore, the associations between greater alcohol consumption and socio-demographic characteristics were explored in each population. Methods: Data from 2500 participants of the 2013 Alberta Survey and the 2013 Queensland Social Survey were analyzed. Regression analyses were used to explore the associations between alcohol risk and socio-demographic characteristics. Results: A higher rate of hazardous alcohol use was found in Queenslanders than in Albertans. In both Albertans and Queenslanders, hazardous alcohol use was associated with being between 18 and 24 years of age. Higher income, having no religion, living alone, and being born in Canada were also associated with alcohol risk in Albertans; while in Queenslanders, hazardous alcohol use was also associated with common-law marital status. In addition, hazardous alcohol use was lower among respondents with a non-Catholic or Protestant religious affiliation. Conclusions: Younger age was associated with greater hazardous alcohol use in both populations. In addition, different socio-demographic factors were associated with hazardous alcohol use in each of the populations studied. Our results allowed us to identify the socio-demographic profiles associated with hazardous alcohol use in Alberta and Queensland. These profiles constitute valuable sources of information for local health authorities and policymakers when designing suitable preventive strategies targeting hazardous alcohol use. Overall, the present study highlights the importance of analyzing the socio-demographic factors associated with alcohol consumption in population-specific contexts.

This study was done to investigate the independent organizations established for patient safety, related policies, and the duties of experts in other countries. Australia established an organization called the Commission in 2006, the United Kingdom established the National Patients Safety Agency in 2001, and the United States assigned its work to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality in 2005. This was done by law in all three countries. The experts for patient safety were mainly called the "patent safety and quality coordinator", and although there was no qualification system for carrying out patient safety work, all three countries had licenses in the health care field or required more than 4-5 years of practical experience. The main duties were planning on patient safety and quality of healthcare service, data collection and analysis, and education, etc. and for this, competencies such as communication, leadership, and teamwork were required.

빅데이터 처리기술의 발전과 함께 보건의료 빅데이터의 잠재적 가치도 크게 주목받고 있다. 그리고 이러한 잠재적 가치를 현실화하기 위해서는 보건의료 빅데이터를 이용한 다양한 연구가 필수적이다. 하지만 개인정보보호법을 중심으로 한 빅데이터 규제체계는 경제재로서의 빅데이터의 측면을 고려하지 못하고 있어, 이를 연구목적으로 활용하는데 많은 장애를 발생시키고 있다. 환자의 치료라는 1차적 목적을 중심으로 한 보건의료정보의 규제체계를 기술의 발전에 부합하며 공익적 활용이 용이한 형태로 개선시켜야 한다. 이를 위해서 개인정보의 보호와 활용의 균형에 대한 고민이 반영된 해외의 법제 동향을 살펴볼 필요가 있다. 해외 법제의 시사점을 바탕으로 우리 법제에서 다음과 같은 방향의 개선점을 도출할 수 있다. 우선 보건의료정보에 특화되고 보호와 활용을 아우르는 법제가 필요하다. 개인정보의 비식별화도 개인정보보호법의 적용이 배제되는 수준을 명확하게 규정해야 한다. 보건의료 빅데이터를 연계할 수 있는 법적 기반의 구축을 통해 관련 연구에 시너지 효과를 창출해야 한다. 외국에서의 논의에 대한 검토와 사회적 합의를 바탕으로 옵트아웃 제도의 도입도 고려해야 한다. 하지만 무엇보다 중요한 것은 이러한 시스템에 대한 국민의 신뢰일 것이다.
