  • 중장기적으로 운영하는 지하수 관측정은 설치도 중요하지만 그 성능 유지를 위한 관측정 시설 관리 또한 중요하다. 따라서 본 조사는 관측정 내부에 이물질이 많이 형성되고 오래된 관측정 시설을 대상으로 실시하였다. 조사대상 관측정들은 장비(펌프) 세척, 시료채취 튜브 교체, 관측정 청소로 구분하여 시설을 개선하였다. 주 양/음이온과 중금속 농도의 변화를 검토한 결과, 마그네슘, 망간, 아연 항목이 증가하는 경향으로 나타났다. 이것은 관측정 내부에 흡착요인으로 작용하던 이물질(탄산칼슘이나 점토물질)이 시설개선 과정을 통해 제거되었기 때문이다. 따라서, 중장기적으로 운영이 계획된 관측정은 1년마다 시설 및 내부 점검을 실시하고 이상현상 발생시 조치를 취하되, 최소 약 4 ~ 5년마다 수행하는 것이 추천된다.

  • The history of esophageal replacement in infants or children is the history of development of various kinds of alternative conduits such as stomach, colon, and small bowel. The gastric tube has been the most widely used conduit. From January 1988 to May 2003, 23 esophageal replacements with gastric tube were performed at the Department of Pediatric Surgery, Seoul National University Childrens Hospital. Statistical analysis was performed using Windows SPSS11.0 Pearson exact test. There were Gross type A(n=10), type B(n=1), type C(n=11), type D(n=1). Ten patients who had long gap esophageal atresia (type A-8, type B-1, type C-1) and 13 patients (type A 2, type C-10, type D-1) who had stenosis, leakage, recurred tracheoesophageal fistula, and esophagocutaneous fistula after previous corrective operations, had esophageal replacement with gastric tube. Mean follow-up periods were 4 year 2 months (7 months-15 year 1 month). There were postoperative complications including GERD in 16 (69.6 %), leakages in 7 (30.4 %), diverticulum at anastomosis in 2 (8.7 %), anastomosis site stenosis in 4 (17.3 %), and distal stenosis of the gastric tube in 1 (4.3 %). There was no statistical significance between operation types and postoperative leakage and gastroesophageal reflux. In conclusion, esophageal replacement with gastric tube may be a useful surgical option in esophageal atresia with long gap and esophageal atresia complicated by previous corrective operation.

  • This study proposes a single-stage light-emitting diode (LED) tube lamp driver with input-current shaping for T8/T10-type fluorescent lamp replacements. The proposed AC-DC LED driver integrates a dual-boost converter with coupled inductors and a half-bridge series-resonant converter with a bridge rectifier into a single-stage power conversion topology. This paper presents the operational principles and design considerations for one T8-type 18 W-rated LED tube lamp with line input voltages ranging from 100 V rms to 120 V rms. Experimental results for the prototype driver show that the highest power factor (PF = 0.988), lowest input current total harmonic distortion (THD = 7.22%), and highest circuit efficiency (η = 92.42%) are obtained at an input voltage of 120 V. Hence, the proposed driver is feasible for use in energy-efficient indoor lighting applications.

  • Public institutions should replace their luminaires with LED lighting by 2020 to save energy. Because the LED lighting installation rate in schools has not yet reached the legal goal, the ESCO program feasibility was investigated. The amount of electricity used, electric rates, times of use in classrooms and fluorescent lighting maintenance costs etc., as well as the elements of lighting maintenance were analyzed. In the case of schools, the lamp usage time was so short that the ESCO projects with only energy savings were impossible. In order to execute the ESCO projects, the maintenance cost savings by replacing an existing luminaire should be considered and the introduction of the relatively cheaper tube type LED lamp than the flat type LED luminaire was required.

  • In order to investigate the types of enteral nutrition formulas currently used in hospitals and evaluate and categorize the commercially prepared enteral nutrition formulas formulas available in the domestic market, we asked dietitians working in 6 hospitals in Seoul to complete the questionnaire and obtained compositional characteristics of 12 commercially prepared enteral nutrition formulas. The average proportion of patients receiving the commercially prepared enteral nutrition formulas(60.6%) was greater than that of patients receiving the in-hospital preparations(31.9%). In the group of patients receiving the in-hospital prepared formulas, the enteral feeding was mainly administered orally, whereas, in the group of patients receiving the commercially prepared formulas, tube feeding was the primary route of formula administration. In both groups, however, a greater proportion of patients received the formulas as total replacements of their meals and for the purpose of dietary supplementation. On the basis of major criteria for evaluation of the commercially prepared enteral nutrition formulas, the 6 products out of the 9 nutritionally complete products formulated for the purpose of dietary supplementation were grouped into the same category(standard protein, caloric density of 1kcal/ml, and tube/oral), so they were considered therapeutically comparable. However, the remaining 3 products were different in protein content(high protein) or route of administration(tube only). Of the 3 nutritionally complete products formulated specifically for the purpose of dietary therapy, 2 products were formulated for patients with renal disease, and the one product was formulated for diabetic patients. Therefore, the data in this study showed that the commercially prepared enteral nutriton formulas became an important part of the enteral nutrition for hospitalized patients in Korea, but the domestic market has not yet generated a wide variety of the formulas, not providing many choices for clinicians to manage the diets for their patients. The results of this study would be helpful for clinicians in choosing appropriate products for their patients, for manufactures in developing new products, and for regulatory authorities to establish the regulation for the broad group of heterogeneous products that are marketed and will be developed as medical foods. In addition, the process of maintaining the categories for evaluation of the commercially prepared enteral nutrition formulas should be dynamic because new products may not reasonably fit any of the existing categories.

  • Current therapy of aortic dissections remains unstandardized because of the relative rarity of these catastrophic events and conflicting reported results of various therapeutic strategies. Hence, we reviewed our current results and planned to purify our method of interpretation of results and so, to standardize therapeutic managements. This study comprised unselected, consecutive 27 patients with aortic dissections who were operated at Seoul National University Hospital from Jan 1983 to March 1988. The results from analysis of their preoperative, operative and postoperative finding were as follows: 1] 7 patients had acute type A, 14 had chronic type A, 4 had acute type B, and 2 had chronic type B. 2] The causes of dissections were unclear, but 8 patients had Marfan`s syndromes, 2 had previous operative histories on cardiovascular systems and 2 had congenital heart diseases. 3] Multiple preoperative variables were found to correlate significantly with operative mortality and complications. The prevalences of such preoperative major complicating factors were significantly more frequent in acute than chronic [P < 0.05] and type A than type B [P < 0.01]. 4] Operations were performed according to the type of the dissections and whether it was acute or chronic. Usually dacron tube graft replacements were performed[25/26]. Intraluminal sutureless graft replacement was performed in 11 patients. Of the 14 patients with combined aortic regurgitation, concomitant aortic valve resuspension in 4, seperative aortic valve replacement in 1, and aortic valve replacement with coronary reimplantation were performed in 9 patients. 2 patients had concomitant arch vessel managements. 5] Over-all operative mortality rate was 33% and 54% for acute type A, 25% for acute type B, 29% for chronic type A, 0% for chronic type B respectively. The main causes of operative mortality were cardiovascular complications [mainly CPB-weaning failure] in acute cases and hemorrhagic complications in chronic cases.

  • 배경: 본 연구에서는 교정형 대혈관전위증으로 양심실교정이 가능하여 개심술을 시행받은 65례의 환아를 대 상으로 질환의 해부학적 특성, 수술방법 및 결과를 분석하였다. 대상 및 방법: 1984년부터 1998년 9월까지의 교정형 대혈관전위증으로 양심실교정을 받은 65례의 환자들을 대상으로 하였으며 주로 환자의 의무기록을 참조하여 후향적으로 동반기형에 따른 수술법의 차이 및 각각의 수술법에 따른 합병증등 단기 및 중장기 성 적을 분석하였다. 결과 평균 연령은 5.4$\pm$4.8세(2개월~18세)이었으며 남:녀비는 39:26이었다. 형태로는 {S,L,L}이 53례{I,D,D}가 12례였다. 폐동맥 협착이나 폐쇄가 동반되지 않았던 경우가 13례(20%)였으며 심실 혹은 심방중격결손증과 폐동맥 협착증이 동반된 경우가 26례(40%)였고 심실중격결손증과 폐동맥 폐쇄증이 동반된 례가 26례(40%)였다. 술전 경도이상의 삼첨판막 폐쇄부전을 보인 환자는 38.5%(26/65)였다. 완전교정 술전 단락술은 22명의 환자에서 24차례 시행하였다. 교정술의 방법으로 폐동맥심실유출로 협착이 없던 13례 에서는 7례에서 심실 혹은 심방 중격결손증만을 폐쇄하였고, 3례에서 삼첨판막치환술을, 3례에서 좌심실을 체순환으로 사용하는 중복치환술(Senning+Rastelli, Senning+REV, Senning+ASO)을 시행하였다. 심실,혹은 심방 중격결손증과 폐동맥 협착이 있던 26명의 환자에서는 24례에서 우심실을 체순환으로 사용하는 기존의 방법 (Rastelli술식 9례, 심실중격결손증 폐쇄후 폐동맥판막절개술 7례, REV형 술식 4례, 중격결손 폐쇄후 폐동맥 판막하 근육절제가 3례, 삼첨판막치환술이 1례)으로 수술하였으며 2례에서 중복치환술(Senning+Rastelli, Mustard+REV)을 시행하였다. 심실중격결손증과 폐동맥폐쇄증이 있었던 26명의 환자에서는 18명에서 심실중 격결손증을 폐쇄하고 Rastelli술식을 시행하였고, 7례에서 중복치환술(Senning+Rastelli)을 시행하였으며, 1례는 심실중격결손증을 폐쇄하고 REV형 술식을 시행하였다. 술후 추적 기간동안 우심실을 체순환으로 사용한 환 자들에서의 삼첨판막폐쇄부전은 술전 평균 1.3$\pm$1.4도에서 2.2$\pm$1.0도로 통계적으로 의미있게 증가하였다 (p<0.05). 그러나 중복치환술을 시행받은 환자들은 술후 삼첨판막의 폐쇄부전의 증가가 없었다. 술전 완전 방 실차단을 보인 환자는 2례(3.1%)있었으며 술후 새롭게 발생한 완전방실차단은 7례(10.8%)있었다. 술후 기타 장,단기 합병증으로는 폐동맥심실유출로도관(conduit) 재협착이 10례, 혈전증(판막: 2례, 인조혈관: 1례, 폐동 맥: 1례)이 4례, 2주 이상의 지속적 흉관배액이 4례, 유미흉이 3례, 출혈에 의한 재수술이 3례, 기타 급성 신 부전, 종격동염, 횡경막신경 마비가 각각 2례씩 있었으며, 중복치환술을 받은 환자들과 전통적 술식으로 수 술받은 환자에서 술후 합병증의 차이는 없었다. 65명의 환자를 평균 54$\pm$49개월(0~177개월)간 추적관찰하였 으며, 수술 초기에 사망한 환자는 13명으로 20.0%(13/65)의 수술사망율을 보였으며 3명의 환자가 추적기간중 사망하여 24.6%(16/65)의 전체사망율을 보였다. 중복치환술을 받은 환자의 수술사망율은 33.3%(4/12)였다. 술 후 1년, 5년, 10년 누적생존율은 각각 75.0$\pm$5.6%, 75.0$\pm$5.6%, 69.2$\pm$7.6%였다. 가장 흔한 사망원인으로는 술 후 저심박출증후군으로 8례였으며 삼첨판막 폐쇄부전이 심해져 심부전으로 사망한 경우도 5례로 사망의 중 요 원인이었다. 결론 저자들은 본 연구를 통하여 기존의 형태학적 우심실을 체순환으로 사용하는 방법과 형태학적 좌심실을 체순환으로 사용하는 해부학적 교정법인 중복치환술중 어느 것이 우월하다고 결론지을 수는 없었으나 해부학적 교정술이 삼첨판막의 폐쇄부전의 진행을 막을수 있다는 면에서 이점이 있으리라 사 료되며 보다 세분화된 적응증의 결정과 아울러 장기적인 추적관찰 및 비교가 필요하리라 생각된다
