건강증진과 고령화 사회를 대비하기 위한 효과적인 문제 해결 방안으로 유헬스 서비스가 주목받고 있다. 현재의 유헬스 서비스는 질병 치료를 목적으로 개발되고 서비스되고 있지만, 더 근본적인 질병 예방과 건강증진을 위해서는 건강과 관련된 환경정보의 제공이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 상황인식 정보를 반영하는 유헬스 환경정보 서비스를 제안한다. 제안하는 서비스는 사용자 지역의 기상 및 보건 정보를 이용하여 환경정보를 도출하고 건강관리에 이용하여 유헬스 서비스의 수준을 향상시킨다. 상황인식 기반의 유헬스 환경정보 서비스에서는 건강 및 생활 날씨 지수 기반의 식단, 운동 서비스뿐만 아니라 사용자 위치기반의 위험지역에 대한 경고메시지와 원격 응급 서비스를 제공한다. 즉 상황인식을 통하여 사용자에게 일어날 수 있는 이벤트를 감지하고 적절한 서비스를 제공하므로 유헬스 서비스의 만족도와 질을 향상시킬 수 있다.

Questioned items included skin care awareness and recognition, skin care type, and the intention of using skin health care mobile services. The respondents thought the best skin as 'Flawless skin (52.3%)'. Also, 'Skin trouble' and 'Skin aging' were their major concerns. 47.1% of the respondents used mobile skin care applications, and 56.6% intended to try new mobile skin care services. The results on interesting field of skin care showed significant difference depending on gender, marital status, and annual average household income. Moreover, the results on effort made for skin care showed significant difference depending on age, gender, and marital status. They wanted the functions such as 'Review on cosmetic products by brand (23.8%)', 'Self skincare method (16.8%)', 'Continuous monitoring service (16.2%)', 'Information on cosmetic products (13.4%)'.

최근, 유비쿼터스 관련 산업이 비약적으로 발전하고 있으며, 특정 구역을 대상으로 유비쿼터스 환경을 구축하는 u-Zone의 개발이 추진되고 있다. 특히 헬스케어 시스템의 관점에서 보면, u-Zone을 활용하여 정신질환자나 거동이 불편한 환자를 관리하기 위한 비용과 노력을 감축시킬 수 있다. 하지만 아직 헬스케어 시스템은 특정 개인을 대상으로 하거나 병원 내부 시스템을 확장하는 수준에 그치고 있다. 정신질환자 중에는 알코올, 마약 등의 약물에 중독된 환자의 비율이 높지만, 일상적인 데이터의 수집이 어려워 체계적인 관리나 정확한 진단이 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 u-Zone 내에서 중독환자에게 생체신호 측정 센서를 통해 지속적인 정보를 수집하고, 모니터링할 수 있는 시스템을 제안하였다. 맥박, 체온, 가속도 센서를 이용하여 환자 상태정보를 수집하고, 이를 기반으로 감정 상태를 판별하여 정확한 진단의 근거가 될 수 있도록 한다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the factors influencing usage intention of u-Healthcare with voluntariness in long-term care hospitals. This model tests various theoretical research hypotheses relating to u-Healthcare, UTAUT theory and voluntariness. The proposed model is analyzed to target long-term care hospitals. Questionnaires have been collected during two months of 2010 and total 142 has been considered to be valid. Smart PLS (partial least square) 2.0 and SPSS 15.0 have been utilized for deriving the study results. The results of hypothesis testing are as follows. First, performance expectance, effort expectancy and social influence positively influence usage intention. Second, facilitation not influence usage intention. Still due to lack of technical infrastructure to promote conditions of use u-Healthcare in long-care hospitals for u-Healthcare system also considered to be not significantly affected. Finally, performance expectance to usage intention for low voluntariness group is significantly larger than those for high voluntariness group. In addition, social influence to usage intention for high voluntarines group is significantly larger than those for low voluntariness group.

We investigated the latest trend of u-Health and relations with clinical technologist. Since 2000, Korea has become an aging society. Korea will become an aged society by 2018, and it is expected to enter the ultra-high aged society by 2026. Increase in over 65 years population means that the desire of medical service and care demand for the elderly is greatly required. In addition, many predicted Korean national health insurance would falter financially. Medical suppression policies and regulations are also amended continuously. U-Health based on the IT industry and development of related technologies and industries contains the variety concepts of telemedicine, telehealth, e-health, u-healthcare and POCT. Especially, the use of POCT supplied quick clinical examination is extending steadily in medical center and hospital, which will generate the field friction between nurses and medical technologists. In the transition situation from provider-centric service to consumer-driven health care system, this study recommended the principal role and correspondence of clinical laboratory workers and offered information about changes in healthcare market and the basic concept of expert system, measurement and the diagnosis principle to clinical technicians throughout the investigation of the recent research and government policy trends.

The aim of this study is the development of a fee - based model day care center for the elderly by inquiring into the current condition of facilities in America and in Korea, and in surveying the opinion of domestic elderly about day care facilities. A field trip to U.S. day care services was held between July 5 and July 15 in 1997, and an on-the-spot study for domestic facilities took place during March in 1998. Our research reveals that the overall supply of day care facilities can not meet future demand in terms of quality and quantity. Therefore a model must be created for day care centers of a that consists of a director from a professional group. an adequate environment, and a standardized in order to offer a qualified public health service linked to the home and community in Korea. The director of a day care center is a critical variable in determining the quality of service. Professional skills related to the needs of the elderly and the person's quality of service should be considered in appointing director for the center. This study belleves that a professional nurse should be the director of a day care center. The operating environment of a day care facility should be made up of considerable space comparable to the number of residents, should be in a comfortable and safe location, and should have equipment that provides a qualified, safe service to the elderly. Our model is designed for 20 persons and allocates 4 Peng per person. This model is comprised of a reading room. a craft room, a health room, a room for physical therapy, a dining room, a staff office, and a multi -purpose room connected to other rooms. Day care service should be a comprehensive service program meeting the multidimensional needs of the elderly. A comprehensive service program needs a team of various professionals made up of the elderly family, participants, nurses, social workers, physical therapists, nutritionists, and medical doctors. The program will also include health care service, physical therapy, speech therapy. diet, occupational therapy, transportation service, health and an education program, etc. In conclusion, a model of a day care center is developed with the following components: a professional director and an environment and program, that considers the physical, mental, and social characteristics of the elderly. A model should also motivate self-reliance self-fulfillment in the elderly in order to fulfill their health needs and to prevent isolation from society and mental depression. Furthermore, This facility will be a beneficial factor in reducing a family's burden on caring for the elderly that includes unnecessary hospital expenses. The following is a suggestion based on results this study: A service program should be developed to fit the conditions of the elderly in Korea by specifically analyzing the needs of the elderly.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate implemented computer generated menus for foodservice in child-care centers. Computer generated menus, which were developed in the previous study, were based on the children's preferences and the bugets of the centers. Computer generated menus were implemented for food service in each national/public, foundation established, and employer-supported child care centers in Seoul, respectively. Plate wastes, preferences, and nutrient intakes of their meals of the existing menus were compared with those of computer-generated menus. The nutrient contents from their nutritional analysis of meals of the computer generated and existing menus satisfied the recommended dietary level (RDfU3). However, at the eaten of computer-generated menus satisfied RDA/3, and the existing menus lacked energy, Ca, Vit Bl, Vit B2 and Vit C. The meals served by computer-generated menus reduced the plate wastes and increased the acceptability of the children in day care centers.
