신의료기술 안전성·유효성 검증을 위한 체계적문헌 고찰

이선희,최원정 대한의사협회 2012 대한의사협회지 Vol.55 No.3

We used a systematic review to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a new health technology in Korea. The results of the systematic review are being used by the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service when the Ministry of Health and Welfare introduces new medical technology. The purpose of this study is to introduce this systematic review, which is the main methodology for evaluating the safety and effectiveness of new medical technology, and to share our experience of performing a systematic review to guide the reader in performing a systematic literature review accurately and easily. This paper presents the process of new health technology evaluation using a systematic review. A systematic review involves collecting current available evidence of health technology systematically. According to the evaluation process, in the first meeting of sub-committee, we develop a systematic review protocol including PICO and criteria for inclusion/exclusion. In the second meeting of sub-committee, we search comprehensively for appropriate literature according to the clinical question and to select in a clear and reproducible method. We also assess study quality, considering the internal validity and external validity of the selected literature, and make a table of extracted data. In the third meeting of subcommittee,we extract general information, study characteristics information, and study outcome information, and synthesize the outcomes. In the forth meeting of sub-committee, we finalize the conclusions based on synthesizing the studies. After the subcommittees’ assessments, the results are presented to the Committee for New Health Technology. Finally, we report this result to the Ministry of Health and Welfare. The systematic review is useful for helping policymakers make decisions about the introduction of new health technology based on evidence. It enables people to minimize confusion due to weak evidence for health technology. In case of domestically developed technology and technology for rare disease, it is difficult assess health technology due to a lack of evidence, so assessing raw data (charts, results of clinical trials) is needed in addition to a systematic review. Furthermore, the government should support clinical studies to develop evidence on new health technologies with potential benefit, and the introduction of a conditional coverage decision in the new health technology assessment system is necessary to deal with uncertainty.

데이터 분석 기반 미래 신기술의 사회적 위험 예측과 위험성 평가

서용윤 ( Yongyoon Suh ) 한국안전학회 2017 한국안전학회지 Vol.32 No.3

A new technology has provided the nation, industry, society, and people with innovative and useful functions. National economy and society has been improved through this technology innovation. Despite the benefit of technology innovation, however, since technology society was sufficiently mature, the unintended side effect and negative impact of new technology on society and human beings has been highlighted. Thus, it is important to investigate a risk of new technology for the future society. Recently, the risks of the new technology are being suggested through a large amount of social data such as news articles and report contents. These data can be used as effective sources for quantitatively and systematically forecasting social risks of new technology. In this respect, this paper aims to propose a data-driven process for forecasting and assessing social risks of future new technology using the text mining, 4M(Man, Machine, Media, and Management) framework, and analytic hierarchy process (AHP). First, social risk factors are forecasted based on social risk keywords extracted by the text mining of documents containing social risk information of new technology. Second, the social risk keywords are classified into the 4M causes to identify the degree of risk causes. Finally, the AHP is applied to assess impact of social risk factors and 4M causes based on social risk keywords. The proposed approach is helpful for technology engineers, safety managers, and policy makers to consider social risks of new technology and their impact.

정설희,권오탁,최연미,문경준,채정미,이루리 한국보건행정학회 2020 보건행정학회지 Vol.30 No.2

This study aims to compare the experience of selected countries in operating separate payment system for new healthcare technology and to find implications for price setting in Korea. We analyzed the related reports, papers, laws, regulations, and related agencies’ online materials from five selected countries including the United States, Japan, Taiwan, Germany, and France. Each country has its own additional payment system for new technologies: transitional pass-through payment and new technology ambulatory payment classification for outpatient care and new technology add-on payment for inpatient care (USA), an extra payment for materials with new functions or new treatment (C1, C2; Japan), an additional payment system for new special treatment materials (Taiwan), a short-term extra funding for new diagnosis and treatment (NUB; Germany), and list of additional payments for new medical devices (France). The technology should be proven safe and effective in order to get approval for an additional payment. The price is determined by considering the actual cost of providing the technology and the cost of existing similar technologies listed in the benefits package. The revision cycle of the additional payment is 1 to 4 years. The cost or usage is monitored during that period and then integrated into the existing fee schedule or removed from the list. We conclude that it is important to set the explicit criteria to select services eligible for additional payment, to collect and analyze data to assess eligibility and to set the payment, to monitor the usage or cost, and to make follow-up measures in price setting for new health technologies in Korea.

신기술의 위협과 경찰활동의 방향

송기복(Gi-Bok Song) 한국테러학회 2024 한국테러학회보 Vol.17 No.1

신기술은 경제성장과 발전의 원동력이면서 사람들의 생활방식과 사고에 영향을 미치고 있다. 특히, ICT(Information and Communications Technology)와 IoT(Internet of Things)의 접목으로 사이버 공간에서의 경제활동이 확대되고 있으며, 사이버 공간은 실제공간과 융합되어 현실 사회에 다양한 영향을 미치고 있다. 또한, 세계 각국은 양자기술(Quantum Technology), 인공지능(AI), 6세대 이동통신(6G) 등 신기술을 자국의 경제, 안보, 국방 분야 등에서 경쟁력 강화 수단으로 인식하여 개발하고 있으며 신기술 자체가 국가 간 패권 다툼의 중심에 있다. 향후 신기술 활용이 가속화되어 사회 구조적으로나 경제활동 과정 중 상호의존관계가 심화되는 사이버 공간은 인간에게 이익을 주는 동시에 위협도 가시화되어 사이버 공간에서 불확실성은 지속될 것이다. 따라서 경찰은 신기술의 발전에 따른 새로운 위협에 대처하기 위한 경찰활동을 도모하는 것이 필요하다. 본고에서는 신기술이 가져올 사회변화와 이로 인해 나타나는 새로운 위협에 대처하는 경찰활동을 개관하고, 신기술을 활용한 경찰력 강화, 사이버 공간에서의 경찰활동 확대, 종합적인 신기술 정책 추진 등 경찰활동의 방향에 대하여 제언한다. New technologies are the driving force for economic growth and development and affect people's lifestyles and thinking. In particular, economic activities in cyberspace are expanding due to the combination of ICT (Information and Communications Technology) and the Internet of Things (IoT), and cyberspace is fused with real space to have various effects on real society. In addition, countries around the world recognize and develop new technologies such as quantum technology, artificial intelligence (AI), and 6th generation mobile communication (6G) as a means of strengthening competitiveness in their economies, security, and defense fields, and the new technology itself is at the center of the struggle for supremacy between countries. In the future, cyberspace, where the use of new technologies accelerates and interdependence intensifies during social structural and economic activities, benefits humans and threats are visualized, and uncertainty in cyberspace will continue. Therefore, it is necessary for the police to pursue police activities to cope with new threats from the development of new technologies. This paper provides an overview of police activities to cope with social changes brought about by new technologies and new threats, and suggests the direction of police activities such as strengthening police forces using new technologies, expanding police activities in cyberspace, and promoting comprehensive new technology policies.

Diagnosis Related Group (DRG) Payment Systems in United States and European countries has institutional arrangements such as supplementary payments, DRG weight adjustments, and new DRG creations for the introduction of new medical technology. However, the controversy has been continued because payment for new medical technology is determined without explicit criteria by the professional committee in Korea. In this study, we carried out a case study on Procedures for Prolapse and Hemorrhoid (PPH) stapler to identify how the new medical technology have been introduced and diffused in Korean case payment system. PPH stapler was rarely used in early additional payment period when the amount of payment was low. However, the usage of PPH stapler increased rapidly in clinics and hospitals when the amount of payment was increased. After the creation of new DRG for PPH stapler, the usage of PPH stapler increased further in all types of health providers. In this case study, we have identified that new technology can be introduced smoothly if the additional payment is appropriate. However, there were not the mechanism to prevent inappropriate diffusion of the new technology and social consensus on the creation of new DRG which means continuous additional payment for the new technology. The result of this study can be used as basis for designing a reasonable payment system for the new technology in case payment.

신재생산기술에 대한 페미니즘의 논쟁과 여성의 위치

이선주(Seonju Lee) 한국동서비교문학학회 2016 동서 비교문학저널 Vol.0 No.36

To analyze the feminist debates on new reproductive technology, this study applies the two perspectives of technological determinism and one that transcends it. In the perspective of technological determinism, we examine radical feminism and eco-feminism which opposes new reproductive technology and cyber feminism which praises the technology. We call the perspective which separates technology from society to regard it as an independent area and perceives an inherent characteristic within the technology itself as technological determinism. Not only are radical feminism and eco-feminism which regard new reproductive technology as a vice classified as technical determinism but cyber-feminism which praises technology as being beneficial to women also belongs to it. The position of technological determinism regards the female as being extremely passive. The female is not given any autonomous agency as she is positioned as the victim of patriarchal capitalism or the subject of new reproductive technology experiments. In the stance opposing technological determinism, the various locations and agency of the female is emphasized. Sawicki of the Foucalt Feminism who examines the location of female resistance while objecting to new reproductive technology belongs to this position. Also, Haraway, who finds the potential for female liberation through post-human technology and cyborg, asserts the theory connecting the ‘situated knowledge’ of women who are placed in different positions and situations with female agency. This study examines how Sawicki and Haraway, while holding contrasting positions to technology, both transcend technological determinism to thereby actively interpret the location and agency of females.

송인옥,송동수 한남대학교 과학기술법연구원 2020 과학기술법연구 Vol.26 No.3

Korea and other countries around the world set goals for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and strive to achieve those goals in order to cope with climate change. In particular, the emergence of new technologies in the fourth industrial revolution has made it possible to respond to climate change more effectively. Already in Spain, the U.S., and other foreign countries are saving energy and activating new and renewable energy through the use of new technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence. As a result, it is producing the result of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Korea is also encouraging various activities and technology development for energy saving and supplying new and renewable energy by utilizing new technologies. However, the use of new technologies in response to climate change was not active due to limited collection and use of personal information and limited disclosure of data required by consumers. So the Data 3 Act was amended in 2020 to protect personal information through processing alias information and to support the activation of data use. However, the revision of the law alone has limitations in promoting the development of technologies to cope with climate change using new technologies. Currently, Article 27 of the 「FRAMEWORK ACT ON LOW CARBON, GREEN GROWTH」 general law for coping with climate change in Korea emphasizes the active use of information and communication technologies and services to save energy and improve utilization efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, it does not specify data that can be considered the core of the new technology and big data, which is the data utilization technology. Thus, the paper proposes to establish a provision on promoting the development of big data technology linked to information and communication in Article 27 of the 「FRAMEWORK ACT ON LOW CARBON, GREEN GROWTH」. The amendment also seeks to encourage the use of new technologies and the development of technologies in response to climate change. 우리나라를 비롯한 전 세계 국가는 기후변화 대응을 위하여 온실가스 감축목표를 설정하고 그 목표를 달성하기 위해 노력하고 있다. 특히 4차 산업혁명을 통하여 각종 신기술이 등장함에 따라 이를 활용한 보다 효과적인 기후변화 대응이 가능해지고 있다. 이미 스페인, 미국을 비롯한 해외 각국에서는 빅데이터, 인공지능 등의 신기술 활용을 통해 에너지 절감, 신·재생에너지 활성화가 진행되고 있으며, 그 결과 온실가스 감축이라는 결과를 도출하고 있다. 우리나라 역시 신기술을 활용하여 에너지 절감, 신·재생에너지의 보급을 위한 다양한 활동 및 기술개발을 장려하고 있다. 하지만 개인정보의 수집 및 이용의 제한 그리고 수요자가 필요로 하는 데이터의 공개가 한정되어 있어 기후변화 대응에 있어 신기술의 활용이 활발하지 못하였다. 이에 2020년 가명정보 처리를 통해 개인정보를 보호하고, 데이터 이용 활성화의 지원이 이루어질 수 있도록 데이터 3법이 개정되었다. 하지만 이러한 법 개정만으로 신기술을 활용한 기후변화 대응 기술개발 촉진에는 한계가 존재한다. 현재 우리나라 기후변화 대응의 일반법인 「저탄소 녹색성장 기본법」 제27조는 에너지의 절약 및 이용효율의 향상과 온실가스 감축을 위해 정보통신기술 및 서비스를 적극적으로 활용할 것을 강조하고 있다. 그러나 신기술 활용의 핵심이라 할 수 있는 데이터와 그 데이터 활용기술인 빅데이터에 관하여 규정하지 않고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 「저탄소 녹색성장 기본법」 제27조에 정보통신 연계 빅데이터 기술개발 촉진에 관한 규정을 신설할 것을 제안하여 이를 통해 기후변화 대응 부문에서도 신기술의 활용 및 기술개발이 이루어지도록 유도하고자 한다.
