AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

The purpose of this study was to identify nursing interventions performed by public health nurses in health centers.

Method

Data was collected by the taxonomy of Nursing Intervention Classification (NIC 3rd: 486 nursing interventions) from 131 public health nurses in health centers and analyzed using descriptive statistics.

Result

As its result, more than 50% of public health nurses performed 137 nursing interventions at least monthly. The most frequently used intervention class was ‘ activity and exercise management’, followed by ‘ physical comfort promotion’, ‘ community health promotion’, ‘ life span care’, ‘ coping assistance’, ‘ Self care facilitation’, ‘ information management’, ‘ nutrition support’, ‘ community risk management’ and ‘ patient education’. One hundred twenty nursing interventions were rarely performed by 90% or more of the nurses. Most of them were the physical complex domain.

Conclusion

In conclusion, 137 interventions were performed by public health nurses at least monthly. NIC is helpful to build a standardized language for public health nursing.

Ja Yun Choi, Soon Joo Park
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2006;36(2):227-235.   Published online March 28, 2017
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2006.36.2.227
AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

This study aimed to: 1) determine the core nursing interventions, and 2) compare acute interventions with subacute interventions recorded in the nursing notes of patients with cerebrovascular accidents (CVA).

Methods

The nursing records covering the first 10 days of 30 patients with a CVA who were admitted from January to December 2004 at C University Hospital in Korea were examined. Data was collected using the nursing interventions classification (NIC) from January to April 2005. Finally, data analysis was carried out using mean, SD, and paired t-test according to domains, classes, and interventions.

Results

The most frequent nursing intervention at both stage was “Neurologic monitoring”. There were differences in interventions belonging to the “Physiological: complex,” “Behavioral,” “Safety,” and “Health system” domains between the acute and subacute stages. The frequency of interventions belonging to the “Immobility management,” “Neurological management,” “Tissue perfusion management,” “Patient education,” “Risk management,” “Health system mediation,” and “Information management” classes at the acute stage was higher compared to the subacute stage.

Conclusions

This study found out that nurses relatively recorded more nursing interventions during the acute stage hence the unsuccessful documentation of the subacute stage particularly in describing the specific nursing interventions at this stage.

Myung Haeng Hur, Chan Kim, Chul Hyun Kim, Hae Chul Ahn, Hye Young Ahn
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2006;36(2):236-243.   Published online March 28, 2017
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2006.36.2.236
AbstractAbstract PDF
Purposes

This experimental study was designed to verify the effect of inhalation of essential oils on body weight, feed intake, food efficiency rate and serum leptin.

Methods

The subjects of this study were 90 growing SD rats (46 males and 44 females). They were allocated into one of four groups, the Fennel group, Patchouli group, Bergamot group and control group. The experimental treatment was the inhalation of aromatherapy essential oils which was applied two times a day for 10 minutes each during 8 weeks. To evaluate the effects, body weight, feed intake, food efficiency rate and serum leptin were measured before and after the treatment. The collected data was analyzed by repeated measures of Kolmogorov-smirnov test and Normal Q-Q plot for nomality, Kruskal Wallis test and χ2-test for experimental effects with the SPSS program.

Results

The food efficiency rate was significantly lower in the Patchouli group and Fennel group than in the Bergamot group and control group (P=.000). No significant group effects were found for SD rat's body weight, feeding amount and serum leptin.

Conclusion

In conclusion, these findings indicate that the inhalation of essential oils could be effective in lowering the food efficiency rate rather than the feed intake.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2006.36.2.255
AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

This study is aimed to confirm the effects of Yakson therapy on the growth and physical response of preterm infants, and maternal attachment to them compared with GHT therapy.

Method

The design of this study is nonequivalent control group with repeated measuring by quasi experimental study. The subjects are preterm infants in 26 - 34 gestational age hospitalized in the NICU of 4 university hospitals with an experimental group of 15 and a control group of 14. Yakson therapy consists of three phases: laying a hand, caressing by hand, and laying a hand again taking 5 minutes for each phase.

Result

As a result of administering Yakson therapy to preterm infants; the average weight gain of the Yakson group was higher than that of the GHT group, but there is no significant difference between groups. The oxygen saturation and maternal attachment difference between the Yakson and the GHT group were not significant. Significant differences in the average daily increase of oral intake and apical pulse rate were observed between the Yakson group and GHT group.

Conclusion

These data suggested that Yakson therapy may be an effective nursing intervention which can facilitate growth and physical response of preterm infants.

Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2006;36(2):265-277.   Published online March 28, 2017
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2006.36.2.265
AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

The study attempted to find family perception differences between abused children and normal children by Kinetic Family Drawing.

Method

The subjects of the study consisted of two groups, 143 abused who were in the upper 25th percentile, and 150 normal who were in the lower 25th percentile. Collected Kinetic Family Drawings were divided into five dimensions such as actions, human figure characteristics, dynamics, styles and symbols, and they was analyzed with SPSS/WIN 10.0.

Results

In the perception about their family in action dimension, their family in figure characteristics dimension, their family in dynamics dimensions, and their family in symbols dimension, there is a sharp contrast between the two groups.

Conclusion

Putting these results together, abused children feel lower self-esteem and feel more sense of alienation in their family than normal children do. In addition, abused children perceive their parents as negative and aggressive people.

Kang Yi Lee, Ok Yeon Jeong
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2006;36(2):278-285.   Published online March 28, 2017
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2006.36.2.278
AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

This study was performed to verify the effect of Tai Chi exercise on patients with rheumatoid arthritis particularly their level of pain, fatigue, sense of balance and daily life performance (ADL).

Method

It employed a non-equivalent control group pre- and post-test design. The research instruments used in this study were pain, fatigue, sense of balance and ADL. Thirty-two patients in the experimental group carried out 50 minutes of Tai Chi exercise for 12 weeks, and 29 patients in the control group did not. Before and after the experiment, both groups were tested for pain, fatigue, sense of balance and ADL. Collected data were processed using the SPSS/WIN 10.0 program analyzed by the frequency, percentage, χ2-test, and t-test.

Results

Pain and fatigue significantly decreased in the experimental group. However the improvement in ADL of the rheumatoid arthritis patients was not statistically significant but their sense of balance was enhanced significantly.

Conclusion

Tai Chi exercise is an effective nursing intervention that can be used for rheumatoid arthritis patients.

Jeong Sook Park, Young Sook Kwon, Hye Ran Lee
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2006;36(2):286-298.   Published online March 28, 2017
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2006.36.2.286
AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

This study was to develop an online ‘ alternative therapy and health promotion’ class for university students and to evaluate its changes.

Method

The online class was developed based on the Instructional Systems Development (ISD) model and model of Web-Based Instruction (WBI) developmental process. This was a quasi- experimental, one group pretest-posttest design. The subjects of this study were 130 students in 3 universities, and they were provided the cyber class for 16 weeks. Data was analyzed by descriptive and plural answer statistics, and paired t-test.

Results

The cyber class was developed in five steps : analysis, design, data collection and reconstruction, programing and publishing, and evaluation. The results of program evaluation were positive, which included learning 3.47, system 3.57, and learning satisfaction 3.64 on the scale of 5. The posttest scores of cognition and reliability of alternative therapy were higher than pretest scores. The posttest score of health promoting lifestyle (t=-5.051, p=.000) and perceived health status (t=2.979, p=.003) were significantly higher than those of the pretest.

Conclusion

These results suggest that the cyber class is a positive method in increasing a cognition, reliability of alternative therapy, and is effective to improve a health promotion lifestyle and perceived health status for the university students.

Kwuy Bun Kim, Mi Hunn Lee, Sohyune R Sok
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2006;36(2):321-329.   Published online March 28, 2017
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2006.36.2.321
AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of music therpy on anxiety and depression in patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Method

The study was designed using a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The subjects consisted of 36 patients (Experimental group: 18, Control group: 18) who received hemodialysis in three hospitals located in Seoul. The measures were a Music Preference Questionnaire (MPQ), anxiety measurement, and depression measurement. Data was collected from December 26, 2004 to April 2, 2005 through questionnaires. The collected data was analyzed by the SPSS 10.0 program.

Result

The first hypothesis that patients undergoing hemodialysis who received music therapy would have less anxiety than patients undergoing hemodialysis who did not receive music therapy was supported (F=8.05, p=.008). The second hypothesis that patient undergoing hemodialysis who received music therapy would have less depression than patients undergoing hemodialysis who did not receive music therapy was supported(F=11.86, p=.002).

Conclusion

The results of this study suggest that music therapy may be applied as a method of nursing intervention contributing to the improvement of quality life by reducing their anxiety and depression of patients undergoing hemodialysis.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2006.36.2.341
AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

This study was conducted to develop and to determine the effect of an tailored falls prevention exercise for older adults.

Method

Subjects consisted of 59 older adults (experimental group : 29, control group : 30) living at nursing homes. Experimental group participated in tailored falls prevention exercise for 16 weeks (3 times a week, 50 min every session). Data were collected before the exercise, 16 weeks and 24 weeks after the beginning of exercise.

Results

1) the experimental group significantly improved the muscle strength of hip extensor and flexor, knee extensor and flexor, ankle dorsiflexor, and plantar flexor compared to the control group. 2) the experimental group significantly decreased the mean time for 10 times chair stand. 3) the experimental group significantly increased the standing time on one leg and the number of heel raise for 30 seconds compared to the control group. In addition more older adults in the experimental group completed the tandem stance and semi-tandem stance for 10 seconds than the control group. 4) The experimental group significantly decreased the mean time of 6m walk and the fall frequency compared to the control group.

Conclusions

This results suggest that tailored falls prevention exercise for older adults can improve muscle strength, static and dynamic balance and decrease the fall frequency of older adults.

Effects of Backrest Position on Central Venous Pressure and Intracranial Pressure in Brain Surgery Patients
Hyun Ju Kim, Kyeong Yae Sohng
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2006;36(2):353-360.   Published online March 28, 2017
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2006.36.2.353
AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

This study was done to investigate the effects of backrest elevation of 0 degree and 30 degrees that minimize the risk of increasing ICP when CVP is measured.

Methods

Subjects were sixty-four patients who stayed in the neurosurgical intensive care unit after brain surgery at two university-based hospitals. CVP, blood pressure, heart rate and ICP were measured along with position changes in order of backrest position with primary 30 degrees backrest position, 0 degree backrest position and secondary 30 degrees backrest position. For data analysis, one-group, repeated-measures analysis of variance design was used in SAS program.

Results

Backrest elevations from 0 degree to 30 degrees did not alter the CVP without increasing the ICP. Therefore, 30 degrees backrest position is a preventive position without increasing ICP.

Conclusion

30 degrees backrest position might be appropriate for brain injury patients when CVP is measured.

The Substitution Effect of Leadership Substitutes for Transformational Leadership in Nursing Organization
Jeong Hee Kim
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2006;36(2):361-372.   Published online March 28, 2017
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2006.36.2.361
AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

This paper was conducted to examine the effects of transformational leadership behaviors, within the substitutes for leadership model (Kerr and Jermier, 1978).

Method

Data was collected from 181 staff nurses in 3 general hospitals, with self-reporting questionnaires (MLQ developed by Bass, rd-SLS developed by Podsakoff, et al., and MSQ developed by Weiss, et al.). Descriptive statistics, factor analysis, Cronbach's alpha and moderated regression analysis were used.

Result

1) The transformational leader behaviors and substitutes for leadership each had correlations with job satisfaction. 2) The total amount of variance accounted for by the substitutes for leadership was substantially greater than by the transformational leadership behaviors. 3) Few of the substitutes variables moderated the relationships between the transformational leader behaviors and job satisfaction in a manner consistent with that specified by Howell, Dorfman, and Kerr (1986).

Conclusion

The finding of this study suggest that leaders need to have a better understanding of those contextual variables that influence job satisfaction. Thus future research should focus attention on the moderating effects of substitutes, as well as the things that leaders can do to influence them. In addition, it may be good to examine the effects of substitutes on other criterion variables.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2006.36.2.373
AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

The purpose of this study was to identify the factors related to the wellbeing of the family caregivers of the elderly with a stroke.

Methods

The subjects of this study were 199 elderly treated in four oriental hospitals in Korea, and their primary family caregivers. The data was collected by interviewsand a self reported questionnaire, during the period from October, 2003 to April, 2004.

Results

The results of this study were as follows. The mean score of wellbeing of family caregivers was 60.6412.63. The factors related to wellbeing of family caregivers were sex, age, education, depression, illness severity, ADL, paralysis, and speech disability in elderly characteristics. Among family caregivers characteristics, education, relation, and burden were significantly related. In situational variables, family income and the previous relationship between the elderly and family caregivers were related to wellbeing. Stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that the most powerful predictor of wellbeing was the burden of family caregivers. A combination of the depression of elderly and age of family caregivers accounted for 50.3% of the variance of wellbeing.

Conclusions

On developing the nursing intervention for improving wellbeing of family caregivers, many factors should be considered, especially caregiver burden, and elderly depression.

AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

The purpose of this study was to analyze and assess the current situation of Korea's school health education program and to establish measures to efficiently carry out school health education in Korea.

Method

The survey was conducted through the internet with the health educators of elementary, middle, and high schools nationwide to assess the current condition of school health education programs, and 2,459 samples were collected which accounted for 23.4% of the total respondents.

Results

According to school health educators on the enforcement of health education, the higher the education became, the less the health education was enforced. The enforcement rate was 96.9% in elementary schools, 76.7% in middle schools, and 67.3% in high schools. The major reasons were found as difficulty in securing class time (54.5%) and other excessive workloads (20.9%). As a result of the health education awareness survey, over 99% answered that health education is needed, over 80% answered that the education requires independent health textbooks, and over 95% answered that health educators are suitable for the person in charge of the education.

Conclusion

This study will be a useful in establishing a detailed policy on enhancing school health education in the future.

AbstractAbstract PDF
Purpose

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of constraint-induced (CI) movement using self-efficacy on U/E function of chronic hemiplegic patients. CI movement discourages the use of the unaffected U/E, combined with intensive training of the affected U/E.

Method

A non-equivalent pretest-posttest design was used. Study subjects were 40 hemiplegic patients conveniently selected from 2 different community health centers. The experimental subjects participated in the CI movement program for 6 hours daily over a period of two weeks. The exercises for affected U/E consisted of warming up, main exercise and ADL practice. To encourage the participants' behaviors self-efficacy enhancing strategies were used, which included performance accomplishment, vicarious experience, verbal persuasion and emotional arousal.

Result

After 2 weeks of treatment, the grip power, pinch power, wrist flexion/extension, elbow flexion, and shoulder flexion/extension were significantly higher in the experimental subjects than in the control subjects. However, there was no significant difference in hand functions of the two groups.

Conclusion

The above results show that the constraint-induced movement using self-efficacy could be an effective nursing intervention for improving U/E function of chronic hemiplegic patients. Long term studies are needed to determine the lasting effects of constraint-induced movement.
