Abstract

This study was conducted to examine cognitive function and the ability for occupational participation in patients with mild and moderate dementia and to identify correlations between these two variables. The study investigated 95 dementia patients who visited a day care center in Daegu between September and November, 2017. Their detailed cognitive functions were examined using the Mini-Mental State Examination-Korean (MMSE-K) and the Korean Version of the Loewenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment Geriatric population: LOTCA-G. Their occupational participation was measured using the Model of Human Occupation Screening Tool (MOHOST). The subjects' cognitive functions and abilities for occupational participation were analyzed using the descriptive statistics produced by the SPSS 20.0 program. In addition, Pearson correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlations between the cognitive functions of the subjects and their abilities for occupational participation. The results of the study showed positive correlations between cognitive function and the ability for occupational participation of patients with mild and moderate dementia. Based on the results of this study, the evaluation of the patients with dementia and ability for occupational participation related to the cognitive function in establishing the therapeutic goal should be considered.

본 연구는 경도와 중등도 치매 환자의 인지 기능과 작업 참여 능력을 알아보고, 인지 기능과 작업 참여의 상관관계를 알아보고자 시행하였다. 2017년 9월부터 2017년 11월까지 대구광역시 지역의 주간보호센터를 방문하는 95명의 치매 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 인지 기능을 측정하기 위하여 한국판 간이정신상태 판별검사(MMSE-K)와 한국판 로웬스타인 작업치료 인지 평가-노인용(Loewenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment Geriatric population: (LOTCA-G)을 사용, 작업 참여를 측정하기 위하여 인간작업모델 선별 평가도구(MOHOST)를 사용하였다. 본 연구 결과는 SPSS 20.0 통계처리 프로그램의 기술 통계를 이용하여 연구 대상자의 인지 기능과 작업 참여 정도를 분석하였고, 인지 기능과 작업 참여 간 상관관계 분석을 위해 피어슨 상관분석을 실시하였다. 연구 결과 치매 환자의 인지 기능과 작업 참여 간 상관관계를 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 치매 환자의 평가 및 치료적 목표 수립 시 인지 기능과 관련한 작업 참여도 고려해야 할 것으로 사료된다.
