Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find out effective ways to improve the operation of EEG Laboratory room. In order to attain this purpose the present status of the rooms' organization, staff, facilities and performance was surveyed with structured checklist. And also the staff' s opinion on the problems and improving strategies of EEG Laboratory room was surveyed with structured questionaire. The survey was conducted in 140 general hospitals with EEG room of which 73 hospitals' data were collected successfully. The data were analyzed by frequencies percentages and χ2 test with SPSS computer program. The major findings of this study were as follows. 1. The average number of EEG rooms are 1.21 of tatal 1.19 of university hospitals and 1.33 of general hospitals. And the average area of EEG rooms is 3.75 pyong(3.3 pyong makes 1㎡) of total, 3.96 pyong of university hospitals and 3.61 pyong of general hospitals. 2. The average number of EEG lab cases are 1,240 of total 1,659 of university hospitals and 1,111 of general hospitals, while average number of lab items are 4.33 of total, 5.22 of university hospital and 4.06 of general hospitals. 3. The staff of EEG laboratorv rooms are relatively satisfied with .iob itself such as interesting in, achivement of the job. 4. The problems to be solved in priority are inadeguacy of facilities which 22% of respondents suggested and scale of manpower which 11% of respondents suggested, while only 7% of the respondents suggested quality of lab is regquired to be improved. On the basic of these results, this study suggests that hospital administrations would improve the manpower and physical resources of EEG rooms rather than quality level of lab. Taking the importance of EEG lab for patient care into consideration, more investment is required to improve the operation of EEG Laboratoy Room in general hospitals.
