Abstract

This study investigates the factors influencing quality of life for cancer patients based on demographic characteristics, physical-mental health, and oral health. These factors are analyzed using the results from 235 cancer patients in Korea's 7th national health and nutrition survey. Data were analyzed using PASW Statistics Ver. 18.0. Studies show that cancer patients experienced stress (74.5%), depression (84.3%), and activity limitations (15.3%). In oral health, problems chewing were often experienced in groups with low incomes (3.35±.21), activity limitations (2.71±.31), and depression (3.01±.27). The factors influencing quality of life were higher by 3.43 times in the low-income group and by 8.39 times in the activity-restricted group, by 2.74 times in the high-stress group, by 4.58 times in the depression group, by 2.68 times in the chewing-problems group, and were 4.92 times higher in the speech problems group (p<0.05). To improve quality of life, not only mental and physical health care, but also oral care is necessary. An integrated management plan for medical staff in the treatment process of cancer patients is required to prevent mental, physical, and oral discomfort.

본 연구는 암환자의 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 요인을 인구사회학적 특성, 심신건강, 구강건강 측면에서 분석하고 암환자의 삶의 질 증진을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 시행되었다. 자료 수집은 국민건강영양조사 제7기 3차 년도 조사대상 중 암환자로 진단받은 235명을 최종대상자로 선정하였고 PASW Statistics ver 18.0 프로그램으로 복합표본 분석을 하였다. 연구결과 암환자 중 스트레스는 74.5%, 우울증은 84.3%, 활동제한은 15.3%가 경험하고 있었고 씹는 문제는 29.0%, 발음 문제는 13.6%가 경험하고 있었다. 구강건강에서 씹기 문제는 소득이 낮고(3.35±.21), 활동제한이 있는 경우(2.71±.31), 우울증이 있는 경우(3.01±.27) 높게 경험하고 있었다(p<0.05). 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 요인은 소득이 낮은 경우 3.43배, 활동제한이 있는 경우 8.39배, 스트레스가 있는 경우 2.74배, 우울증이 있는 경우 4.58배, 씹기 문제가 있는 경우 2.68배, 말하기 문제가 있는 경우 4.92배 유의하게 높게 나타났다(p<0.05). 본 연구결과를 통해 암환자의 삶의 질 증진을 위해서는 심신 건강관리뿐만 아니라 구강 관리가 요구되었고, 암 치료 과정 중 합병증으로 발생하는 심신 및 구강 불건강 예방을 위해 암 치료과정에서 의료진의 통합적인 관리방안이 요구되었다.
