Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the quality of life according to the level of subjective perception as well as to analyze the influencing factors and improve the subjective perception to improve the quality of life. The results of the survey for adult patients in hospitals and neighborhood clinics in the region of Busan for nine months from December 2015 were as follows. Regarding the total symptoms, the women had a score of 1.41, and the younger respondents felt they suffered from no symptoms. An analysis of the quality of life by the general characteristics showed that the respondents who were better educated and had no systemic diseases had a higher score of 54.71 on the OHIP-14. The respondents who were better educated and had no systemic diseases had a higher score of 6.48 when a single item was used to determine their happiness index, and the respondents who were better educated and had no systemic diseases had a higher score of 3.82 when five items were used to rate their happiness index. The factor with the greatest influence on their scores on the OHIP-14 was the total symptoms, followed in order by the happiness index and self-rated oral health status. The variable that exerted the largest influence on the happiness index was the OHIP-14, followed by the self-rated health status, high-school or lower education, and the presence or absence of one or more chronic disease. Therefore, an improvement in the subjective awareness level is required to boost the quality of life, and a variety of health education programs should be prepared to raise the awareness level. In addition, there should be a chance to convey accurate information.

본 연구는 부산지역 병의원에 내원하는 성인을 대상으로 주관적 인식수준에 따른 삶의 질을 알아보고 영향요인을 분석하여 주관적 인식개선을 위한 방안마련과 함께 삶의 질 향상을 위한 기초자료로 삼고자 한다. 2015년 12월부터 약 9개월간 부산지역 병의원에 내원하는 성인들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 결과는 다음과 같다. 주관적 건강수준에서 여자가 3.16점으로 높았고, 연령은 높아질수록 낮았으며, 비 흡연자에서 3.17점으로 높았고, 주관적 구강건강수준은 연령이 높을수록 낮았고, 최종학력에서는 대졸이상이 3.04점으로 가장 높았으며, 흡연을 하지 않는 경우 2.87점으로 높았다. 증후증상 합은 여자가 1.41점으로, 연령이 낮을수록 증상의 인식이 없었다. 최종학력은 높을수록 월 소득은 많을수록, 비 흡연자에서 구강 내 증상 인식수준이 낮았다. 일반적 특성에 따른 삶의 질을 분석한 결과, OHIP-14는 최종학력이 높을수록, 전신질환 없는 경우 54.71점으로 높았으며, 단일문항 행복지수는 학력이 높을수록, 전신질환이 없는 경우 6.48점으로 높았다. 또한 5문항 행복지수는 학력이 높을수록, 전신질환이 없는 경우 3.82점으로 높았다. OHIP-14에 미치는 요인으로 증후증상 합이었으며, 행복지수, 주관적 구강건강상태순 등으로 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 행복지수에 가장 큰 영향력을 미치는 변인은 OHIP-14이었으며, 주관적 건강상태, 학력_고졸이하, 만성질환 유무 순 등으로 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 삶의 질 향상을 위해서는 주관적인 인식수준의 개선이 필요하며, 인식수준개선을 위한 다양한 보건교육프로그램과 함께 정확한 정보를 전달할 수 있는 장의 마련이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
