Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the experience of patients with uterine benign neoplasms in response to high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment. The study participants were patients who received high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment after diagnosis of benign uterine neoplasms and were contacted through purposive techniques. Five patients agreed to participate in this study. Data were collected from February, 2018 to May, 2018 at Women's hospital in D city. The interview data were analyzed by the phenomenological analysis method developed by Colaizzi using open-ended questions during in-depth interviews. Three categories emerged from the analysis using Colaizzi's method: 1) Discomfort. 2) Ambivalence. 3) Will and need. These study results contribute to a deeper understanding of the experience of patients with uterine benign neoplasms in response to high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment. Therefore, it should be developed as part of an effective nursing education program to provide evidence-based guidelines and nursing interventions that alleviate health problems in patients receiving high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment and proper nursing understanding of the development of new treatment methods for woman's health.

본 연구의 목적은 현상학적 접근을 통하여 고강도 초음파 치료를 받은 자궁양성종양 환자에 대한 경험의 본질을 심도 있게 파악하기 위해 이루어졌다. 연구 대상자는 자궁양성종양을 진단받고 고강도 초음파 집속술 치료를 받은 5명의 환자였다. 본 연구의 자료 수집은 2018년 2월부터 3월까지 이루어졌으며, 고강도 초음파 집속술을 시술하고 있는 D시 여성전문병원에서 시행되었다. 연구방법은 일대일 심층 면담을 통해 이루어졌으며, 자료는 비구조적이고 개방된 질문형태를 사용하여 자신의 의견과 경험을 자유롭고 유연하게 표현할 수 있도록 하였다. 인터뷰 자료는 Colaizzi의 현상학적 분석 방법을 사용하였다. 연구결과 5명의 대상자로부터 얻은 고강도 초음파 집속술 치료에 따른 건강문제는 총 3개의 범주로 구성되었고, 각각의 범주는 다시 하부 요인으로 구성되었다. 3개의 범주로는 '불편감', '양가감정', '의지와 요구' 로 나타났다. 본 연구는 고강도 초음파 치료를 받은 자궁양성종양 환자들의 경험을 이해하는데 도움을 줄 것이다. 나아가 본 결과는 향후 여성건강을 위한 새로운 치료법의 개발과 발전에 따라 올바른 간호학적 이해 및 고강도 초음파 치료를 받는 환자에 대한 지속적인 연구와 효과적인 간호 교육프로그램 개발이 이어져야 할 것이다.
