4. Introduction
•Background
–Mongolia is considered to be one of the countries with a sufficient supply of health professionals in terms of proportion to the size of the population, especially in urban areas.
–However, the problem of dense population in urban areas and internal migration has deteriorated the quality, accessibility, and load of healthcare services.
–In this situation, it is claimed that the stress and depression driven by over workload of health professionals has somewhat negatively influenced their attitude towards work and job satisfaction.
–Other factors, such as the number of the patients, duration of medical checkups, procedures, consultations, and other additional functions, like serving patients with special needs, can lead to significant job stress.
•Significance
–There was no study dealing with job stress and job satisfaction for health professionals in Mongolia

12. Evaluation of CDSS for Drug Prescription Based on Success MeasuresJinwooPark, Young Moon Chae, Young TaekLee, Koungwon Cho, JungheeKim, Byung HwaLee(Published in Journal of Korean Society of Medical Informatics. 2009; 15(3): 293-301)
12
13. Introduction
•Background
–Medication errors are increasing
–The Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) for drug prescriptions was developed by integrating the computerized physician order entry (CPOE) system to support doctors and pharmacists in making correct decisions on prescribing drugs in line with the prescription guidelines by the Health Insurance Review Agency (HIRA)
•Significance
–This is the first attempt to evaluate effectiveness of CDSS for drug prescription in Korea
–Use of DeLoneand McFarlanmodel for performance evaluation of CDSS
13
14. Objectives
•The purpose of this paper is to analyze the performance of the CDSS with respect to system quality, information quality, and user satisfaction to reduce prescription error
•Specific objectives are:
–To identify the factors influencing CDSS performance
–To analyze association between quality measures and user satisfaction
14
15. Subjects
•A questionnaire was designed by structuring primary evaluation areas first and then more detailed sub-areas in each primary area.
•The survey was conducted by mail or by visit for 6 weeks from April 20 to May 29, 2009, for the pharmacists from 38 hospitals using the CDSS.
•Hospitals were selected by stratified random sampling
•Research design is cross-sectional design
•A total of 84 questionnaires were returned from 22 users (response rate of 58%). Of them, 77 were used for the analysis, excluding 7 that were found unusable for statistical analysis.
15
16. Model and Statistical Analysis
•Based on the Deloneand McLean framework, we evaluated the success of the CDSS by using two quality measures (system quality and information quality) as independent variables; and three performance measures (user satisfaction and organizational impact) as dependent variables for the multiple regression analysis (Figure 1).
•Chi-square analysis with cross-tabulation was performed to analyze the specific associations among two quality measures and three measures of user satisfaction (information satisfaction, system satisfaction, and willingness to recommend to others).
•We also analyzed the associations between two quality measures and improvements in drug safety as a performance measure of organizational impact by using Chi-square

20. Implementing Health Management Information Systems: Measuring Success in Korea’s Health CentersYoung Moon Chae, Suck Il Kim, Byung HwaLee, Sung HaeChoi, In SookKim(Published in International Journal of Health Planning and Management, 1994; 9: 341-8)
20
21. Introduction
•Background
–Quality of health statistics produced at the district level is still very low so that health status of the district cannot be accurately determined.
–Management data needed for planning, organizing, and evaluating health programs are not readily available for district managers.
–Productivity and morale of most health workers are low because they suffer from heavy workloads of tedious paper works and simple tabulation.
–Health centers and health subcentersare not responding to the changing needs of primary health services, which has been changed from family planning or MCH to chronic degenerative diseases (e.g. hypertension, diabetes)
•Significances
–HMIS can be regarded as management innovation within health center to meet the unrelenting challenge of providing and assuring health services to the community.
–Relatively little research, however, has been done on measuring the processes of introducing a management innovation into a health center.
21
22. Purposes
•To assess the extent to which a management innovation, in this case a HMIS, is perceived as successful to health center personnel
•Specifically,
–To examine the three key measures of successful implementation of HMIS: productivity of health center staffs, adoption process, and the satisfaction of visitors to the health center.
–To compare user satisfaction between computerized center and not-computerized center
22
23. Methods
•Research design –longitudinal design with control
–Three surveys were conducted to measure the changes in productivity and adoption process (knowledge, persuasion, decision, implementation, and confirmation) of health workers over time during the period of 20 months.
–The effects of the Health Management Information System (HMIS) on the quality of services to the visitors were also measured 7 months after the 3rd survey by comparing the quality of services between the study health center and the similar health center as a control group
23
26. Statistical Analysis
•The changes in three adoption variables (knowledge, persuasion, and decision) were compared between the survey 1 and survey 2 (before and after the implementation of the HMIS) using Wilcoxsonsigned-rank test.
•The changes in job processing time, which is a surrogate measure for the productivity of health center staffs, between the three surveys were compared using the Bonferronimethod because there were significant differences in variances among the three groups.
•Three satisfaction variables (waiting time, credibility, and convenience) of visitors between the two health centers were compared with Chi-square test, and average score of these variables were compared with t-test(1 point for the dissatisfied and 3 point for the satisfied).

48. Incidence and mortality rate of cervical cancer among all women
Cervical cancer:
–Incidence rate: 45.9 per 100,000.
•The highest incidence rate: women aged 30-39 years old
–Mortality rate: 3.4 per 100,000
•The highest mortality rate: women aged 50 or older
Pap smear test:
–Women who had never been screened by Pap smears:
•1.7-fold high risk of incidence for cervical cancer
•2-fold high risk of mortality for cervical cancer
49. Discussion
•The Healthy People 2010target for cervical cancer is a reduction in mortality to 2.0 deaths per 100,000 women.
•Since 1998, the rate remains near 3.0 deaths per 100,000 women. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force strongly recommends screening for cervical cancer in women who have been sexually active and have a cervix.
•Pap smear screening should be targeted for younger women. As a result, we can also reduce the overall burden of cervical cancer among Korean women.
•Future studies are needed.
50. Discussion
•This large prospective cohort study of Korean women showed that several reproductive factors including age at menarche, age at first delivery, menopause status and long-term estrogen exposure were independent risk factors for development of cervical cancer.
•Death due to cervical cancer among Korean women was associated with high level of fasting serum glucose (FSG) (RR=1.73, 95%CI=1.03-2.92), late stage of hypertension (RR=2.00, 95%CI=1.06-3.59) and smoking.

52. Introduction
•Background
–3rdNational Health and Nutrition Survey conducted in 2005 reported that 32% of Korean adults were obese, based on the same criteria. Obesity is related to a metabolic syndrome and therefore obese people are at a greater risk of developing cardiovascular disease
–web-based therapy management system with mobile phone access has been developed and distributed to obese patients to support weight management.
•Significance
–We developed the SmartDiet, a mobile phone-based weight control system that not only closely tracks an obese patient’s daily nutrition intake, but also has games that users can play to learn about weight control.
–The SmartDietis different from the previous dieting applications in a sense that users could download and implement personalized dietary information onto their personal mobile phones
52
53. Objectives
•This study evaluated the effectiveness of the mobile phone application SmartDietwith respect to acquiring dietary information, weight control, and user satisfaction.
•Specific objectives are:
–To describe demographic characteristics and lifestyle of study population
–To analyze the effects of SmartDietby comparing body composition between case and control group
–To analyze user satisfaction
53
54. Research Design
•Subjects
–The effectiveness of the SmartDietwas evaluated based on the pretest-posttest with control design.
–19 subjects were assigned to the case or intervention group, and 17 subjects were assigned to the control group.
•Statistical Analysis
–Differences in demographic characteristics and lifestyle between the intervention group and the control group were analyzed by the Chi-square test.
–The changes in body composition before and after the intervention for both groups were compared by the paired t test.
