Abstract

This study aims to identify the effects of experiencing health promotion education on the present health status of elderly people. The subjects of this study were a total 10,532 elderly people (aged 65 years or older), and who were selected from the data of the '2017 Community Health Survey'. The health promotion education experience consisted of handwashing education/campaign, a non-smoking campaign and non-smoking education. The chronic disease control education experience consisted of education on hypertension, diabetes mellitus and arthritis. Psychiatric counseling consisted of consultations on stress, depression and suicide. The present health status consisted of the patients' ability to exercise, their self-care ability, their activities of daily living, their pain/discomfort and their anxiety/depression. The data was analyzed utilizing the chi-square test, the Mann-Whitney test and multivariate logistic regression analysis. The general characteristics of the subjects were 4,075 males (38.69%) and 6,457 females (61.31%). The average age was 73.71(±6.18) years old. The significant factors influencing the elderly peoples' present health status were age (OR=0.909, 95% CI=0.886-0.933), handwashing education/campaign (OR=2.463, 95% CI=1.703-3.563), a stop smoking campaign (OR=1.624, 95% CI=1.146-2.301) and consultation for mental problems (OR=0.533, 95% CI=0.359-0.791). In conclusion, to modify the personal habits that the elderly have had for a long time and to show the effects of education, long-term continuous education that focuses on the characteristics of the people will be effective.

이 연구의 목적은 노인이 경험한 건강증진과 만성질환관리 보건교육, 정신문제 상담 경험이 현재 건강상태에 미치는 효과를 확인하는 것이다. 이 연구는 '2017년 지역사회 건강조사' 자료를 활용하여 65세 이상 노인 10,532명을 최종 대상자로 선정하였다. 건강증진 교육경험에는 손씻기 교육 및 홍보 경험, 금연 캠페인 경험, 금연교육 경험으로 구성되었다. 만성질환관리 교육 경험은 고혈압, 당뇨병, 또는 관절염 관리 보건교육 경험으로 구성되었다. 정신문제 상담 경험은 스트레스, 우울, 자살을 포함한 정신문제 관련 상담 경험으로 구성되었다. 현재 건강상태는 운동능력, 자기관리, 일상활동, 통증/불편, 불안/우울 정도로 구성되었다. 자료분석은 Chi-square test, Mann-Whitney test, 다변량 로지스틱 회귀분석을 활용하였다. 연구대상자의 일반적 특성은 남자가 4,075명(38.69%)이고, 여자가 6,457명(61.31%)이었으며, 평균연령은 73.71(±6.18)세이었다. 노인 대상자의 현재 건강상태에 영향을 미치는 유의한 요인으로는 연령(OR=0.909, 95% CI=0.886-0.933), 손씻기 교육 및 홍보 경험(OR=2.463, 95% CI=1.703-3.563), 금연캠페인 경험(OR=1.624, 95% CI=1.146-2.301), 정신문제 상담 경험(OR=0.533, 95% CI=0.359-0.791)으로 나타났다. 노인들이 오랫동안 유지해온 개인적 습성을 수정하여 교육의 효과를 보이기 위해서는 대상자의 특성을 고려한 장기간 꾸준한 교육이 효과적일 것이다.
