Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the factors related to awareness, treatment, and control of hypertension in Korea using data from the 4th KNHANES. The analytical technique employed multivariate logistic regression analysis and the major findings of this research are as follows. First, awareness of hypertension was positively associated with age, occupation, self-rated health, Body Mass Index, and health examination since 2 years ago, in both males and females. Second, treatment of hypertension was positively associated with age, self-rated health, Body Mass Index, and health examination since 2 years ago, in both males and females. Third, control of hypertension was positively associated with age, self-rated health, Body Mass Index, and health examination since 2 years ago, in both males and females. Finally, the results of analysis suggest that the government should especially focus on the vulnerable group and continue to strengthen effective efforts for improving awareness, treatment, and control of hypertension.

본 연구는 고혈압 환자를 대상으로 효과적인 관리대책을 개발하는데 유용하게 활용할 수 있는 기초자료를 얻기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 제4기 국민건강영양조사자료(2007~2009)를 이용하였으며, 분석방법은 다변량 로지스틱 회귀분석을 적용하였다. 본 연구의 주요 결과로는 첫째, 고혈압 인지와 통계적으로 유의한 관련성이 있는 변수는 남녀 모두에서 연령, 직업, 주관적 건강상태, 체질량지수 및 건강검진 여부 변수였다. 둘째, 고혈압의 치료는 남녀 공히 연령, 주관적 건강상태, 체질량지수 및 건강검진 여부 변수가 유의했다. 셋째, 고혈압의 조절에는 남녀 모두 연령, 주관적 건강상태, 체질량지수 및 건강검진 여부 변수가 유의한 변수였다. 정책적 시사점으로는 고혈압 관리수준을 전반적으로 향상시키려면 선택과 집중의 원칙하에 취약 집단에 초점을 맞추어 이들에게 적합한 대책을 집중적으로 시행해야 할 것이다.
