Along with increasing production of automobile in Korea, incidence of injured gravida is expected to rise in short period of time. This paper is attempted to review the literatures on trauma sustained from traffic accidents among pregnant women.
Attention is particularly focused on incidence, uniqueness of uterine injuries compared with other regions and impact on reproductive organ at the traffic accidents. Furthermore, differences in degree of injuries between users and non-users of safety belt and its working mechanisms are noted. As for pregnant women, three point belt is safer than lap belt where-as air bag is safer than belt for the benefit of fetus.
Problems of human rights arising from artificial insemination still remain controver-sial from the social and ethical point of views. Once religious aspects of the problem is con-sidered, the issue on in vitro fertilization is more contradictory and in complexity. Policy such as approval of adopted child discouraging artificial insemination should be re-evaluated considering barren couples amounting to 900,000, together with existing traditional value system on off springs. Such conviction is enhanced considering individual is entitled to have a family. Furthermore, some state laws have legalized artificial insemination, and even tissue and organ banks have been established.
