3.A Comparative Study on the Effects of the Nursing Diagnosis Systems Using Neural Network and Expert System.
Journal of Korean Society of Medical Informatics 1998;4(1):75-81
With growing need in the field, the application of computers in nursing has been frequently studied to improve the quality of nursing care in Korea. But the development of useful clinical programs has not received adequate alternatives. The aim of this study is to compare of two Nursing Diagnosis Systems - Neutral Network and Expert System. The simulated output of each Nursing Diagnosis System and the Judgment from the researcher and two professors of nursing were comparatively examined. The misdiagnosis rate of Nursing Diagnosis System using the Neural Network was nine percent, while the Nursing Diagnosis System using the Expert System showed consistency with those three experts in every aspect. Accordingly, the result of this study demonstrated the possibility of application of a nursing diagnosis system as another nursing tool.

4.An Inplementation of Nursing Diagnosis Expert System Using VP-EXPERT.
Journal of Korean Society of Medical Informatics 1996;2(1):59-73
Expert systems emerged during early 1970s have become one of the most important innovations in computer science. They actively work in various areas and achieve a big success especially in medical domain. It is to be difficult to obtain reliable recognitions about each diagnosis that has common characteristics and to manage data about over 140 nursing diagnoses by using existing Nursing Diagnosis System with artificial neural network. But a rule-based approach has been studied to automate diagnosis and is more effective that nursing diagnosis depends on objective data and has more common characteristics. In this paper, Nursing Diagnosis System was built with a rule-based approach due to the above reasons. Nursing Diagnosis System is implemented by using rules of production system, a kind of knowledge representation technique based on standardized nursing care plans. The ten nursing diagnoses, found most frequently from the patients on medical-surgical wards were determined to develop Nursing Diagnosis System. To verify the usefulness of Nursing Diagnosis System was tested with 80 patient's data. A diagnosis was judged correct if the system and the nursing experts agreed on diagnosing. The nursing experts evaluated 100 percents of the system's diagnosis was deemed correct. Judging from the results given above, the system seems highly reliable. In this work, I show that it can contribute to clinical application of nursing process as another nursing tool.

OBJECTIVES: This study was conducted to examine the mental health status of the laid off by comparing the unemployed with the employed. METHODS: A survey questionnaire was used to investigate the mental health status of the laidoff in comparison with that of the employed. The study sample consisted of 247 laid-off people formerly employed in A auto factory and 167 employees working in B auto factory. RESULTS: The proportion exercising regularly was 20.2% for the laid-off and 34.8% for the employed and the proportion having regular meals was 10.9% and 50.6%, respectively. In addition, the frequency and amount of alcohol consumption and smoking of the laid-off were higher than those of the employed. Among the laid-off, 69.4% responded that they spent less time in talking to their spouse, and 65.4% also reported reduced sexual activities with their spouse. Because of unemployment, 41.8% of the laid-off experienced conflicts with their children, and 53.5% also perceived that they were stigmatized and treated badly by their neighbors, friends and relatives. Mean IFR in the laid-off was 22.9, which was much higher than the 15.3 recorded in the employed. The mean PWI-SF was 24.2 for the laid-off and 13.0 for the employed, which indicates the lower psychological health status of the laid-off than that of the employed. Age, annual salary, family relationship, regular exercise, regular diets, possibility to return to work and perception of the future were related to mental health status for the laid-off. Stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that the most important factor influencing mental health status for the laid-off was family relationships. CONCLUSIONS: According to the above results, the mental health of the laid-off is worse than that of the employed. Based on this study, a follow-up study focusing on the mental health status of the reemployed to the same factory, is needed to understand the direct mental health effect on the laid-off.

10.Gastrointestinal endoscopy in anticoagulated patients: diagnosis and treatment.
Korean Journal of Medicine 2007;72(4):333-339
Recently, the treatment of anticoagulant and antiplatelet agents for various cardiovacular and neurologic areas has become popular. Optimal endoscopic approach during the management of the anticoagulant requires consideration for relative risks of thromboembolism and bleeding, but the prospective data are limited. For procedures considered to have a low risk of bleeding such as diagnostic endoscopy or colonoscopy with simple biopsy, it is not necessary to discontinue anticoagulation therapy. For procedure with higher risk of bleeding such as endoscopic polypectomy or mucosal dissection, an individual modification of strategy is required. It should be recognized that the risk of thromboembolic event varies according to the underlying condition when adjustment of anticoagulation is required during endoscopic procedure.
