Abstract

This study is a qualitative study using focus group interview to explore the perception regarding smartphone use for adhering to self-care in chronic heart failure patients. Eleven patients who were diagnosed with heart failure were included. Three focus groups were held with heart failure patients at an outpatient cardiac care center. The focus group discussions were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using the method of constant comparative analysis. The 12 sub-themes were categorized into 'perception of smartphone use', 'Barriers to smartphone use', and 'Facilitators to smartphone use'. We found that the need to design tailored the messages or health information based on individual preferences. Our findings will be used to develop or design a smartphone based self-care program for patients with heart failure.

본 연구는 만성 심부전 환자를 대상으로 스마트폰을 활용한 자가관리에 대한 환자의 인식을 파악하고자 스마트폰을 이용하는 만성심부전 환자 11명을 대상으로 질적연구의 한 방법인 포커스 그룹을 이용하였다. 환자는 세 그룹으로 나누어 조사하였고 면담 시 녹취한 자료를 기록하여 내용분석하였다. 그 결과 자가관리에 대한 인식은 자가관리 보조, 일상생활 불편, 혼란스러운 건강정보, 개인정보노출에 대한 두려움이었고, 방해요인은 요금부담, 노화에 따른 사용의 어려움, 사용방법에 대한 이해부족, 부정적 건강신념이었으며, 촉진요인은 이해가 쉬운 건강정보 전달, 의료진과 환자 간 의사소통 채널, 심리사회적지지, 개별화된 건강관리로 범주화 되었다. 그러므로 심부전 환자를 위한 모바일 자가관리 프로그램 개발 시 심부전 환자의 요구도와 선호도에 대한 측면과 스마트폰 활용을 함에 있어 긍정적 혹은 부정적 영향요인을 고려하여 설계하는 데 기초자료를 제공할 것이다.
