A Study on Wound Care Knowledge and Concerns of Patients at Discharge

퇴원하는 환자의 상처관리에 대한 지식과 염려에 관한 연구

  • Published : 2009.11.30

Abstract

This study was done to examine patients' wound care knowledge and concerns prior to discharge from a tertiary hospital. The participants in this descriptive survey were 112 patients having wounds. During interview, a structured self-administered questionnaire was filled out. The participants were 71 males and 41 females. Wound types were surgical incision (52.7%), percutaneous wound (26.8%), pressure ulcer (9.8%) and diabetic foot and arterial ulcers (5.4%). Their wound care knowledge was 52.0% of correct answer and the mean of concerns (range 1-7) was 2.79. There was no significant correlation between their knowledge and concerns of wound care. The factors influence on wound care concerns were fear of wound care, wound pain, length of hospital stays, and perceived health condition. This findings showed that discharge patients with a wound had some incorrect knowledge and various concerns about wound care. They may help to direct patient teaching in discharge plan.

본 연구는 3차병원에서 퇴원하는 환자의 상처관리에 대한 지식과 염려사항을 파악하기 위해 112명의 피부상처를 지니고 퇴원을 앞둔 112명 환자에게 구조화된 설문지로 면담을 통해 조사하였다. 상처의 유형은 외과적 절개(52.7%), 삽관상처(26.8%), 욕창(9.8%), 당뇨발과 동맥궤양(5.4%) 등이었다. 상처관리에 관한 지식은 52.0%의 정답률을 보였고, 상처관리에 대한 염려(범위1-7)는 2.79였고, 상처관리에 대한 지식과 염려는 상관관계가 유의하지 않았다. 퇴원후 상처관리에 관한 염려에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 유의한 변수는 상처관리에 대한 두려움, 상처통증, 입원기간, 및 주관적 건강인식으로 나타났다. 상처를 지니고 퇴원하는 환자들의 상처관리에 대한 지식은 부정확한 것이 많으며 다양한 염려사항들을 가지고 있으므로 퇴원계획시 이에 대한 구체적인 교육이 필요할 것이다.
