전북 전주 예수병원 혈관이식외과 김미진(사진) 과장이 최근 열린 '대한고압산소의학회'추계학회에서 "유방암 수술 후 발생한 림프부종에서의 고압산소치료의 적용 경험"이라는 주제를 발표해 '최우수상'을 수상했다.

추계학회는 고압의학과 관련된 진료ㆍ교육ㆍ인증ㆍ정책 수립에 따른 국내외 협력을 통해 고압의학 분야의 발전을 도모하기 위한 학술대회다.

고압산소치료는 대기압보다 2~3배가량 높은 고압산소를 주입해 체내 혈액 속에 녹아들게 하는 치료법이다.

2기압 이상의 압력이 가해진 챔버 안에서 100%에 가까운 산소로 호흡하면 일반 대기압 상태와 비교해 산소농도는 10배ㆍ산소투과율은 3배 증가한다.

특히, 몸 곳곳으로 고농도 산소가 공급돼 신체조직 내 산소 부족으로 유발된 질환들이 개선된다.

고압산소치료가 필요한 대표적인 증상은 일산화탄소 중독ㆍ감압병(잠수병)ㆍ화상ㆍ버거씨병ㆍ당뇨병성 족부궤양(당뇨발)ㆍ뇌농양ㆍ난치성 골수염ㆍ방사선치료 후 발생한 조직괴사 등 다양한 질환의 치료에 이용되고 있다.

김미진 과장은 또, 지난 21~22일까지 판교 차바이오컴플렉스(CBC)에서 열린 '제3회 아시아외과초음파학'국제학술대회'에서 "Early experience of midline catheter device for patients with poor peripheral vascular access"라는 주제의 논문으로 '우수 포스터상'도 수상하는 영예를 안았다.

이번 국제학술대회는 코로나19 감염증 예방을 위해 발표와 질의응답이 비대면 온라인 생중계 방식으로 개최된 가운데 국내 외과의사 200여명과 몽골ㆍ우즈베키스탄ㆍ싱가포르ㆍ카자흐스탄ㆍ필리핀 등 아시아 10여개 국가 200여명 등 총 400여명이 참석했다.

한편, 김미진 과장은 예수병원 혈관이식외과에서 신장이식ㆍ하지정맥ㆍ투석수술ㆍ대동맥ㆍ혈관중재시술ㆍ혈관ㆍ이식ㆍ유방ㆍ갑상선 등의 전문 분야를 맡고 있으며 대한외과학회ㆍ대한혈관외과학회ㆍ대한정맥학회ㆍ고압산소의학회ㆍ한국유방암학회 정회원으로 활발한 연구 활동을 이어나가고 있다.

Jesus Hospital Manager Mijin Kim honored 'Academic Award'

Korean Society of Hyperbaric Oxygen Medicine 'Best'ㆍAsian Surgical Ultrasound'Excellent Poster Award’

Reporter Kim Hyun-jong

Jeonju Jeonju Jeonju, Jeonbuk, Jeonju, vascular graft surgery manager Mijin Kim (pictured) presented the subject of “Experience of applying hyperbaric oxygen therapy in lymphedema after breast cancer surgery” at the'Korean Hyperbaric Oxygen Medicine' Autumn Conference, which was recently held and won the'Best Award'. did.

The Fall Society is an academic conference to promote the development of hyperbaric medicine through domestic and international cooperation in accordance with the establishment of treatment, education, certification, and policies related to hyperbaric medicine.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a treatment that injects hyperbaric oxygen, which is two to three times higher than atmospheric pressure, to dissolve in the body's blood.

When breathing with oxygen close to 100% in a chamber where a pressure of 2 atmospheres or more is applied, the oxygen concentration increases 10 times and the oxygen permeability increases 3 times compared to the normal atmospheric pressure.

In particular, high-concentration oxygen is supplied throughout the body to improve diseases caused by lack of oxygen in body tissues.

Representative symptoms requiring hyperbaric oxygen therapy are used in the treatment of various diseases such as carbon monoxide poisoning, decompression sickness (submersible disease), burns, burger's disease, diabetic foot ulcer (diabetic foot), brain abscess, intractable osteomyelitis, and tissue necrosis that occurred after radiation therapy. .

Mijin Kim also said, "Early experience of midline catheter device for patients with poor peripheral vascular access" at the '3rd Asian Surgical Ultrasound International Conference' held at the Pangyo Cha Bio Complex (CBC) from the 21st to 22nd. It was also honored with the'Excellent Poster Award' for the thesis on the subject.

This international conference was held in a non-face-to-face online live broadcast with presentations and questions and answers to prevent the corona19 infection. A total of 400 including 200 domestic surgeons and 200 from 10 Asian countries including Mongolia, Uzbekistan, Singapore, Kazakhstan, and the Philippines. Dawn attended.

Meanwhile, Manager Mi-jin Kim is in charge of specialized fields such as kidney transplantation, lower limb vein, dialysis surgery, aorta, vascular intervention, blood vessels, transplantation, breast, thyroid, etc. As a full member of the Venous Society, Hyperbaric Oxygen Medicine Society, and the Korean Breast Cancer Society, he continues his active research activities.
