Abstract

This study is intended to look into the effects of wig wearing on scalp disorders in female patients with cancer. To achieve this, a survey was empirically carried out to female patients with cancer. The findings are as follows. The effect of wig wearing for hair loss on scalp itching in female patients with cancer showed that larger inconvenient factors did not cause the itch when wearing wig. And the adhesion, perspiration and psychological shrinking of wig wearing did not directly spark the scalp itch. The effect of wig wearing for hair loss on scalp trouble in female patients with cancer showed that higher inconvenient status and psychological shrinking significantly caused scalp trouble when removing wig, while the adhesion and perspiration did not directly correlated with scalp trouble when removing wig. As for the findings, it suggests that the simple adhesive status and perspiration do not just cause scalp disorders in that wig wearing for hair loss causes the scalp itch and trouble in female patients with cancer.

본 연구는 여성암환우의 가발착용이 두피질환에 미치는 영향을 알아보고 향 후 암 환우들을 위한 가발 제작 시 필요한 기초자료를 제공하고자 실증 조사를 실시하였다. 그 결과 여성암 환우의 탈모용 가발 착용이 두피 가려움증에 미치는 영향은 가발착용 시 여러 가지 불편요소가 클수록 가려움을 유발하는 것으로 나타났으며 가발착용의 밀착성과 땀 분비, 심리적 위축성은 두피 가려움을 직접적으로 유발하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또, 여성암환우의 탈모용 가발 착용이 두피 트러블 유발에 미치는 영향에서도 가발의 탈착 시 불편 여부와 심리적 위축감이 높을 경우 두피 트러블을 유발시키는데 유의적인 영향을 미치는 반면 가발 탈착 시 밀착성과 땀 분비는 직접적인 연관이 없는 것으로 나타나 기각되었다. 이 같은 결과는 여성암 환우의 탈모용 가발 작용이 두피가려움과 트러블을 유발시킴에 있어 단순한 밀착여부와 땀 분비만으로 두피질환을 유발하지 않음을 시사한 것으로 볼 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구의 결과를 토대로 심적으로 고통 받는 여성 암 환우들을 위한 편리하고 우수한 가발 제작이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
