The purpose of this study was to analysis of nursing interventions performed by the ICU nurses to the patients with cerebrovascular disorder practically from one university hospital in Seoul. The data were collected from 15 nurses with 86 cerebrovascular disorder cases from one ICU with the questionaire to write frequency of nursing care done by the surveyee from May. 2, 2000 to July, 3, 2000 and the list of 66 nursing interventions selected out of 433 NIC(Nursing Interventions Classification) of Iowa University which were translated into Korean(44 items) and core nursing interventions by ICU nurses(22 items: Kim, Su-Jin, 1997). The data were analysed with SPS8 program. The results are as follow: 1. The most frequently used nursing interventions were vital sign monitoring, fall prevention, cerebral edema management, dysreflexia management, neurologic monitoring, cardiac care, communication enhancement, technology management, bed rest care. respiratory monitoring in rank. 2. The most frequently used nursing intervention domains were 'Physiological: Complex', 'Physio-logical:basic', 'Behavior', 'Safty', 'Health system' in rank. In the domain of physiological: basic, the most frequently used nursing interventions were bed rest care, urinary elimination management, tube care: urinary, physical restraints in rank. In the domain of physiological: complex, the most frequently used nursing interventions were cerebral edema management, dysreflexia management, neurologic monitoring, cardiac care in rank. In the domain of behavior, the most frequently used nursing interventions were communication enhancement. touch, active listening in rank. In the domain of safty. the most frequently used nursing interventions were vital sign monitoring, fall prevention in rank. In the domain of health system, the most frequently used nursing interventions were technology management. specimen management in rank. 3. some difference of the frequency practicing the nursing interventions according to the shift of duties was found. For example, medication administration was common at day duty, touch was practiced at evening duty, temperature regulation was performed.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to explain the effects of upper extremity exercise program on hemiplegic stroke patients. METHOD: The research was designed by a non-equivalent pretest-posttest way. The data were collected from February to August 2003 at a community health center located in Seoul. The study subjects were a conveniently selected group of 27 hemiplegic patients. The subjects were divided into two groups, the experimental group and the control group. 14 subjects were assigned to the experimental group in which the subjects did the upper extremity exercise training for 2 hours once a week during four weeks, while 13 subjects were assigned to the control group. The outcomes were evaluated on the basis of the upper extremity motor ability(hand power, pinch power, upper extremity ROMs), amount of motor use and the degree of depression. RESULT: 1. After treatment, the motor abilities of the affected upper extremity(hand power, pinch power, ROMs of wrist flexion/extension, shoulder extension) were significantly different between the two groups. However, there were no significant differences in elbow and shoulder flexion between experimental and control group. 2. After treatment, amount of motor use of affected upper extremity were significantly different between the two groups. 3. After treatment, the degree of depression were significantly different between the two groups. CONCLUSION: In considering these results, the upper extremity exercise program could be effective for hemiplegic patients by improving the function of their upper extremity. Long-term studies are needed to determine the effects of upper extremity exercise program.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate relations among lifestyle, depression and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of adult women in the Jeju Province. METHODS: This study sampled 154 women aged 20 or older through convenience sampling and surveyed them from January to February, 2008. RESULTS: The mean score for lifestyle was 3.7, for depression 12.1, and for HRQoL 75.2. There were significant negative correlations between lifestyle and depression, and between depression and HRQoL. There was a significant positive correlation between lifestyle and HRQoL. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that HRQoL of women is associated with lifestyle and depression. When developing programs to enhance health in women, consideration should be given to lifestyle and depression.

Journal of Korean Academy of Adult Nursing 2005;17(5):793-801
PURPOSE: This study was to identify the relationship between family support, self-efficacy and self-care performance in patients with chronic illness. METHODS: The subjects were 100 in-and out-patients who were diagnosed with chronic illness at university hospital in Cheonan. The data analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression with SPSS WIN 12.0. RESULTS: The level of family support, self-efficacy and self-care performance were high. The family support in patients with chronic illness indicated a significant positive correlation to self-care performance but no significant correlation to self-efficacy. The self-efficacy in patients with chronic illness indicated a significant positive correlation to self-care performance. Family support and self-efficacy account for 24.4% of variance of the self-care performance. The most significant predictor which influenced self-care performance in patients with chronic illness was family support. CONCLUSION: The results of this study showed that family support and self-efficacy are very important variables in explaining the self-care performance. Therefore, these variables should be considered in nursing intervention development and education.

Journal of Korean Academy of Fundamental Nursing 2009;16(3):353-361
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of adult the women' s satisfaction with their appearance, self-esteem, depression and stress to health related quality of life (HRQOL) across the lifespan. METHOD: In this study a convenience sample of Korean women aged 20 years and over was used. There were 1152 women and data were collected from November 2007 to February 2008. RESULTS: There was no difference in satisfaction with appearance in all age group. Elderly women reported lowest self esteem and HRQOL and highest depression and stress. There were statistical significances between satisfaction with appearance, self-esteem, depression, stress and HRQOL for all age groups. The most significant predictors of HRQOL in early adulthood women were stress and depression. The most significant predictors of HRQOL in middle adulthood women were stress, disease, depression, self-esteem, and monthly income. The most significant predictors of HRQOL in elderly women were stress, disease, depression, and satisfaction with appearance. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that HRQOL of Korean women is associated with psychological distress as with stress and depression. When developing programs to enhance health in elderly women, consideration should be given to body image as well as psychological distress and chronic conditions.

10.Knowledge, Attitude and Self-Confidence of Student Nurses Regarding Nosocomial Infection Control.
Journal of Korean Academy of Fundamental Nursing 2007;14(4):429-436
PURPOSE: This study was conducted to identify the knowledge, attitude and self-confidence of student nurses regarding control of nosocomial infections and to provide data for preparation of an efficient policy and education program regarding nosocomial infections. METHOD: A descriptive survey design was utilized, and, using a questionnaire, which included 15 items for knowledge, 81 items for attitude, 81 items for self-confidence, data were collected from 520 student nurses. Descriptive statistic, t-test, one-way ANOVA and Pearson's correlation coefficients, and Stepwise multiple regression analysis were used with SPSS win 12.0 to analyze the data. RESULTS: The mean score for knowledge was 0.63, for attitude, 4.38 and for self-confidence, 3.50. There was a significant positive correlation between knowledge, attitude and self-confidence in control of nosocomial infections. Attitude, practical attitude, and education were significant factors affecting self-confidence regarding nosocomial infection control. CONCLUSION: These research findings should be useful in promoting continuous and repeated educational programs on nosocomial infection for student nurses.
