Abstract

This study examined the effects of the physical functions (ADL, IADL), mental functions (CES-D, MMSE-K) and oral health impact profile (OHIP-14) on the quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF) of the elderly in long-term care facilities. The study subjects were 602 elderly people, who were surveyed at the entrance to the long-term care facilities. The interviews were conducted using a questionnaire during the period from May 1, to June 30, 2014. As a result, the quality of life was affected more by the CES-D and MMSE-K than by the ADL and IADL or by OHIP-14; the quality of life improved with a higher ADL, IADL, and OHIP-14 and a higher CES-D and MMSE-K. A higher OHIP-14, ADL and IADL resulted in a higher CES-D and MMSE-K. These results suggested that the quality of life is correlated significantly with the physical functions (ADL, IADL), mental functions (CES-D, MMSE-K), and the oral health impact profile (OHIP-14).

본 연구는 장기요양시설 노인의 신체적 기능(ADL, IADL), 정신적 기능(CES-D, MMSE-K) 및 구강건강영향지수(OHIP-14)가 삶의 질(WHOQOL-BREF)에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 시도하였다. 조사대상은 장기요양시설에 입소하여 있는 노인 602명으로 하였으며, 조사는 2014년 5월 1일부터 6월 30일까지의 기간 동안에 구조화된 설문지를 이용한 면접조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과, 조사대상자의 정신적 기능(CES-D, MMSE-K)은 신체적 기능(ADL, IADL)이나 구강건강영향지수(OHIP-14)보다 삶의 질에 더 큰 영향을 미쳤으며, 신체적 기능과 구강건강영향지수가 높을수록, 정신적 기능이 높을수록 삶의 질을 증가시키는 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 위와 같은 연구결과를 볼 때, 장기요양시설 노인들의 삶의 질은 신체적 기능, 정신적 기능 및 구강건강영향지수와 유의한 관련성이 있음을 시사하고 있다.
