Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between prosthetic status and health related quality of elderly by using EuroQol-5 dimension (EQ-5D) which is a standardized instrument used as a measure of health outcome. Data from 1,179 elderly subjects (over 65 years old) from the fifth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were used in our analysis. Oral examination were conducted to obtain wearing prosthetic and needed prosthetic. EQ-5D is a widely used health condition measuring instrument. It consists of the five dimensions: Mobility, Self-care, Usual activities, Pain/discomfort and Anxiety/depression. EQ-5D index is a score calculated out of a weighting system. In this study, the mean score of the EQ-5D index among the elderly was 0.86. For EQ-5D index gender, female showed statistically significantly lower quality of life than male. The related factors EQ-5D index, when the lower demand for fixed prosthodontics and full denture. Wearers in partial and complete denture than non-wearers showed higher EQ-5D index. In order to improve EQ-5D index among the elderly who demand prosthetic status, which has lost its function through providing proper dental prostheses.

이 연구는 국민건강영양조사를 이용하여 우리나라 만 65세 이상 노인을 대상으로 보철 상태에 따른 건강관련 삶의 질을 조사하여, 노인의 구강건강증진의 기초자료를 확보하고자 하였으며, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 전체 연구대상자의 HRQoL은 0.86이었으며, 성별에 따른 HRQoL은 남자에서 0.90에 비해 여성에서 0.82로 남자가 유의하게 높았으며, 월 평균 소득이 증가할수록, 학력수준이 높을수록, 상실치아 개수가 낮을수록 HRQoL이 유의하게 높았다. 연구대상자 중 고정성 가공의치와 총의치 필요한 대상자는 HRQoL이 유의하게 낮았으며, 부분의치와 총의치를 장착하지 않은 대상자에서 HRQoL이 유의하게 높았다. EQ-5D의 현재의 건강 상태 5개의 항목에서 운동능력 항목은 부분의치 장착군에서 비장착군에 비해 어려움에 대한 응답한 비율이 높았으며, 자기관리 항목에서 총의치장착군에서 어려움이 있다고 응답한 비율이 높았다. 불안/우울 항목에서 총의치 장착군이 비장착군에 비해 어려움이 있다고 응답한 비율이 높았다.
