Abstract

Delirium is an acute confused state associated with poor outcomes among hospitalized long-term care hospital elderly patients. This study was conducted to examine the effects of acomfort promotion program based on Kolcaba's comfort theory for prevention of delirium among elderly patients who have been hospitalized in long-term care hospitals. The study used was a quasi-experimental type, with two groups of patients; those who received their usual care plus comfort nursing intervention (n=34) and those who only received usual care methods. Using the IBMSPSS/PC (Version 21), the homogeneity of the control and intervention group wereevaluated by the chi-squared test and an independent t-test, and all collected data wereanalyzed. Hypotheses were tested by independent t-tests and repeated measures of ANOVA. Delirium occurred at a rate of 2.9% (1/34) in the intervention group and 14% (5/34) -in the control group ($x^2=3.98$, p=0.047). The severity of the delirium in theintervention group was lower than that of the control (t=2.27, p=.027). The duration of delirium was 2days in the intervention group and 2-10days in the control group, indicating delirium in the intervention group lasted for a significantly shorter period ($x^2=3.22$, p=0.048). According to the change of time, the intervention group showed improvement in all areas including comfort scores (F=108.85, p<0.001), anxiety scores (F=63.39, p<0.001), depression scores (F=89.78, p<0.001), quality of sleep scores (F=63.63, p<0.001), and pain scores (F=93.64, p<0.001). In conclusion, elderly patients who were admitted to nursing homes were advised to participate in nursing intervention,which effectivelyprevented delirium based on the Kolcaba's comfort theory of physical, psychological, spiritual, social, cultural and environmental approaches to prevent delirium. Therefore, it is necessary to extend the program for prevention of delirium in the physical, psychological, spiritual, social, cultural, and environmental contexts to prevent delirium in geriatric hospitalized elderly patients.

본 연구는 요양병원 입원 노인환자를 대상으로 섬망예방을 위한 안위증진 프로그램이 섬망발생, 섬망지속정도, 섬망위험요인을 감소시키는데 효과가 있는지 검토하기 위한 비동등성 대조군 전후 설계의 유사실험연구이다. 자료수집 기간은 2016년 7월 3일부터 8월 20일까지 이루어졌으며 연구 대상은 요양병원에 입원중인 65세 이상의 노인 환자로 실험군 34명, 대조군 34명이었다. 자료분석은 IBM SPSS 21.0 Program을 이용하여 independnet t-test, repeated measures ANOVA를 이용하여 분석하였다. 섬망예방을 위한 안위증진 프로그램은 Kolcaba이론을 바탕으로 개발하였고, 개발된 프로그램의 효과는 다음과 같다. 섬망발생률은 실험군 2.9% (1/34명), 대조군 14.7% (5/34명)로 실험군에서 통계적으로 유의하게 낮았으며($x^2=3.98$, p=.047), 섬망심각도는 실험군(0.24)이 대조군(5.1)에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 낮았다(t=2.27, p=.027). 섬망지속시간은 실험군(2일)이 대조군(2~10일)보다 통계적으로 유의하게 짧은 것으로 나타났다($x^2=3.22$, p=.043). 시간의 변화에 따라 실험군에서 안위는 증가하였으며(F=108.85, p<.001), 불안(F=63.39, p<.001)과 우울(F=89.78, p<.001)은 감소하였다. 수면의 질은 실험군이 대조군에 비해 높았고(F=63.63, p<.001), 통증은 실험군이 대조군에 비해 낮았다(F=93.64, p<.001). 결론적으로 요양병원에 입원한 노인환자의 섬망예방을 위해서 신체, 심리 영적, 사회 문화적, 환경적 접근을 한 Kolcaba이론에 근거한 섬망예방을 위한 안위중재예방프로그램의 효과가 있는 간호중재임이 확인되었다. 따라서 요양병원 입원 노인환자들의 섬망예방을 위해서 신체, 심리 영적, 사회 문화적, 환경적 맥락에서의 섬망예방을 위한 안위중재프로그램을 확대 시행할 필요가 있음을 제언한다.
