초록

본 연구의 목적은 아로마발반사요법과 발반사요법이 농촌의 본태성고혈압 노인 환자의 혈압, 맥박, 그리고 혈중지질농도에 미치는 효과를 확인하기 위함이다. 연구방법은 비동등성 대조군 전 후 유사 실험연구로, 2008년 6월 30일부터 8월 9일까지 6주간 충청남도 G군 소재 C보건진료소에 등록된 본태성고혈압 환자로 실험군 I(아로마 발반사요법) 24명, 실험군 II(발반사요법) 27명, 대조군(기존의 처치) 20명을 대상으로 하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS/WIN 12.0 프로그램으로 분석하였다. 연구결과는 6주 간 아로마발반사요법과 발반사요법을 각각 적용한 후 실험군 I과 실험군 II 모두 대조군에 비해 수축기 혈압(p<.05)과 이완기 혈압(p<.05)에서 유의한 차이를 보였고, 맥박수도 유의하게 감소하였으나(p<.05), 혈중지질농도의 변화는 세군 간에 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>.05). 결론적으로 아로마 발반사요법과 발반사요법은 농촌의 본태성고혈압 노인 환자의 혈압 하강과 맥박수 감소에 긍정적인 기여를 하는 것으로 나타났으므로 향후 아로마발반사요법과 발반사요법을 본태성고혈압 환자의 간호중재방법으로 활용 할 수 있을 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of aroma foot reflexology and foot reflexology on blood pressure, pulse rate and blood lipid level of elderly essential hypertensive patients in a rural area. The research method was a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design and the participants were consisted of 71 elderly patients with essential hypertension who were being registered at C health Clinic(G gun, Chungnam province). Here, we compared experimental group I(aroma foot reflexology) 24 persons, experimental group II(foot reflexology) 27 persons and control group(conventional treatment) 20 persons to measure the effect. The data were analyzed with SPSS/WIN 12.0. The systolic blood pressure(p<.05), the diastolic blood pressure(p<.05), and the pulse rates(p<.01) of experimental group I and II after intervening respectively with aroma foot reflexology, and foot reflexology for 6 weeks were significantly decreased than the control group, but the blood lipid level was no significant difference among 3 groups(p>.05). In conclusion, both of aroma foot reflexology and foot reflexology had positive effects to decrease the blood pressure and pulse rates of the elderly essential hypertensive patients in a rural area and would be utilized as a nursing intervention for them.
