초록

본 연구에서는 경로당 이용 노인을 대상으로 인지기능장애 정도를 파악하고 노인의 인지기능장애에 영향을 미치는 융복합적 요인을 확인하고자 하였다. 자료 수집을 위해 2016년 6월부터 2016년 7월까지 C도의 총 4개 동, 읍, 면에 거주하고 있는 60세 이상 경로당 이용 노인 375명을 대상으로 일반적 특성을 비롯한 건강관련 특성, 우울정도, 인지기능장애를 조사하여 분석하였다. 연구결과 대상자의 인지기능장애에 연령과 교육수준, 경제적 지원 경로, 뇌졸중 과거력, 운동여부가 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 연령이 80세 이상의 경우 74세 이하보다 인지기능장애 위험이 3.50배 정도 높았으며(p=.002), 교육수준의 경우 수준이 낮을수록 인지기능장애 위험이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다(p=.036), (p=<.001). 또한 뇌졸중 과거력이 없는 경우 인지기능장애 위험이 낮은 것으로 나타났으며(p=.033), 운동을 하지 않는 경우 인지기능장애 위험이 1.84배 증가하는 것으로 나타났다(p=.044). 본 연구를 바탕으로 인지기능장애 위험요인을 고려하여 발병 후 치료보다 인지기능 저하가 발생하기 전부터 예방하고 관리하는 노력이 요구된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the degree of cognitive impairment for the elders taking part in activities at senior community center and to identify the multiple factors affecting the cognitive dysfunction of them. Data were collected for the 375 elders taking part in activities at senior community center at 4 different areas of dong, up, and myun of C-city from June 2016 to July 2016, and their general characteristics as well as health-related characteristics, depression, and cognitive dysfunction were investigated and analyzed. The results of this study showed that cognitive dysfunction was affected by the age, education, economic support, history of stroke, and exercise. The risk of cognitive dysfunction was 3.50 times higher in patients over 80 years old than patients below 74 years old(p=.002), and the lower the level of education showed the higher the risk of cognitive dysfunction(p=.036)(p<.001). In addition, the risk of cognitive dysfunction was low in the absence of a history of stroke(p=.033), and the risk of cognitive dysfunction increased by 1.84 times if they do not exercise(p=.044). Based on the present study, It is required to consider the risk factors for cognitive dysfunction efforts to prevent and manage cognitive impairment before the onset of cognitive dysfunction.
