초록

본 연구는 보건소 건강교실을 이용하는 고혈압 당뇨병 환자의 보완대체요법(CAM)에 대한 이용실태 및 인식을 알아보기 위하여 시도된 서술적 조사연구이다. 대상은 보건소 건강교실을 이용하는 고혈압 당뇨병환자 177명을 면대면 인터뷰를 통해 자료를 수집하였고, 자료는 SPSS WIN 18.0 프로그램을 이용하여 빈도, 백분율, 평균, 표준편차, Independent t-test, Pearson correlation분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 대상자의 56.5%가 CAM을 이용해 본 경험이 있었고, 의료인과 상의한 경험이 있는 사람은 전체의 16.0%에 불과하였다. CAM에 대한 일반적 인식점수는 $3.11{\pm}0.58$점으로 CAM 재이용의도 및 권유의도 및 관련교육 참여의도 간에 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있었다(r=.604, r=.516, r=.419, p<.001). 결론적으로, 만성질환자들의 CAM이용 현황 및 인식에 대하여 의료인들 및 보건당국이 관심을 가져야 할 필요가 있으며, 추후 만성질환자들의 올바른 CAM이용을 위한 효과적인 실행전략 및 정책 마련에 유용한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있다.

This study aimed to investigate the awareness and utilization of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) in hypertension or diabetes patients to participate in health class in rural community health center. A total of 177 hypertension or diabetes patients were participated in this study. Data were collected using face-to face interviews and were analyzed using the SPSS WIN 18.0 program. About 56.5% of subjects experienced CAM and 16.0% of subjects told heath care providers about CAM. General awareness of CAM was $3.11{\pm}0.58$ in 5 point, and awareness significantly positively correlated with intention to reuse CAM, recommend CAM, and participate in CAM-related education (r=.604, r=.516, r=.419, p<.001). Health care providers such as doctors and nurses need to be concerned about CAM utilization and awareness in chronic disease patients. These findings can be used in developing effective strategies for health care providers and health policy makers to provide right awareness and utilization of CAM for chronic disease patients and the public.
