Abstract

The purpose of this study was to assess treatment-seeking behavior and to identify the factors that affect treatment-seeking behavior of men having lower urinary tract symptoms. One hundred thirty-two men working at public institutions or visiting the public institutions were included for this study. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire survey done from October to November, 2016. Data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 18.0 program. The treatment-seeking behavior was found only in 55.6% (n=79) with lower urinary tract symptoms. The factors that affect treatment-seeking behavior in men with lower urinary tract symptoms significantly were economic status, subjective health status, autonomy, and competence. Results of this study provided fundamental data for developing the program to promote treatment-seeking behavior in men with lower urinary tract symptoms.

본 연구는 하부요로증상을 가진 성인 남자의 치료 추구 행위 정도를 파악하고 치료추구행위의 영향 요인을 확인하고자 실시되었다. 연구는 공공기관에 근무하거나 공공기관을 방문한 성인 남자 중 하부요로증상을 가진 142명을 대상으로 2016년 10월에서 11월 사이에 구조적 설문지를 이용하여 이루어졌다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS/WIN 18.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였으며 분석결과, 하부요로증상과 관련한 치료추구 행위를 한 대상자는 55.6%(79명), 치료추구행위를 하지 않았다고 응답한 대상자는 44.4%(63명)로 나타났다. 하부요로증상 관련 치료추구행위의 영향요인은 경제 수준, 주관적 건강상태, 자율성, 관계성 등이 확인되었다. 이는 하부요로증상을 가진 성인 남자의 건강증진을 위하여 치료추구행위를 촉진하는 전략마련이 시급함을 의미하며, 이러한 결과를 고려하여, 중재프로그램 을 개발한다면 대상자의 건강증진에 기여할 것으로 기대한다.
