Korean Journal of Rehabilitation Nursing 2004;7(2):149-158
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study to analyze the relationship the activities of daily living(ADL), self-efficacy, and health promoting behaviors. METHOD: The research was a descriptive survey study. The subjects of this study were 115 hospitalized stroke patients to two General hospitals and one Oriental treatment hospital in G. Metropolitan. Data was collected through questionnaires from December 1st, 2003 to January 30th, 2004. The survey instruments used in the study Shah, Vanclay and Cooper's MBI(11 items), and Sherer and Maddux's self-efficacy(10 items), Walker, Sechrist, and Pender's HPLP(23 items) was developed by the researcher. The obtain data were analyzed with an SPSS 10.0 program using frequency, percentage, Cronbach's alpha, t-test, ANOVA, Duncan test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. RESULT: The results were as follows; The level of ADL the score was 50.5, self-efficacy 40.4, and health promoting behavior 54.6. There were significant differences of ADL by general and disease related characteristics as follows : for monthly income(F=2.72, p= .048), duration of stroke(F=7.98, p= .001), number of attack(F=5.21, p= .007), operation (F=17.88, p= .000). There were significant differences of self-efficacy by general and disease related characteristics as follows : for monthly income(F=4.83, p= .003), number of attack (F= 6.20, p=. 003), operation(F=4.03, p= .047). There were significant differences of health promoti ng behaviors by general and disease-related characteristics as follows : for aphasia(F=4.24, p=.042). There were significant correlated between ADL and self-efficacy(r= .698, p=.000), self- efficacy and health promoting behavior(r=.398, p= .000), ADL and health promoting behavior(r= .235, p= .011). CONCLUSION: As a result, There was a significant correlation between ADL, self-efficacy and health promoting behaviors. There will be considered useful nursing intervention effect to progress, support health promoting behavior of stroke patients.

Faced with patients who underwent TURP and who were given antibiotics until catheter-removal, usually complain of urinary frequency or burning on ruination and showing sterile urine (less than l00 bacteria per ml., in clean-caught midstream about 24 hours after catheter-removal), we often hesitate to make a decision whether they should be given antibiotics or not. So we divided 27 such patients into three groups : group l ; 7 patients, no additional antibiotics after catheter-removal, group 2; 12 patients, antibiotics for one week after catheter-removal and we performed weekly urine culture for clarifying the necessity of additional antibiotic therapy and its appropriate duration, if necessary. The following results and conclusions were obtained. I. Group l showed bacteriuria in 86%(6 of 7 patients). 2.Group 2 and 3 showed bacteriuria 5%(1 of 20 patients). 3. These data suggested that additional antibiotic therapy rather than stopping antibiotic therapy might be justified(P : less than 0.001). 4. Group 2 showed no bacteriuria and group 3 showed bacteriuria in one patient which disappeared promptly. Namely, there was no practical difference in the incidence of bacteriuria between the two groups. 5. 9 cases of fungiuria were found, all of which developed in patients given antibiotics perioperatively for more than 2 weeks. 6. Considering the above items and cost-effectiveness, a week`s additional antibiotic therapy is probably an appropriate answer to treating the above-mentioned patients. 7. Main causative organism in post-TURP bacteriuria was Pseudomonas spp(4of 7 cases).

We treated the 90 wrists (83 patients) with de Quervain's disease, and studied retrospectively the factors affecting the result of treatment, and the results of several treatment modalities, compared with published series of this disease. There was significant association between outcome and duration of symptoms before treatment, but age, sex, associated disease, and hand dominance were not associated(chi-square test, p < 0.05). And 75 wrists received single injections of steroid and local anesthetic into the tendon sheaths with complete pain relief in 59 wrists (69%). Furthermore, an additional injection gave pain abatement in 6 wrists. And regardless of treatment method, 95% of the whole patients had satisfactory outcome at a mean of 54 months (minimum follow-up, 45 months). We concluded that injection of steroid is the preferred initial treatment in de Quervain's disease, giving complete and lasting relief in 87% of cases.
