Abstract

This study was conducted to emphasize the importance of oral health education by identifying the relationship between the oral health knowledge level, the oral health education request level, and Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index(GOHAI) of the elderly. The survey was conducted on 191 elderly people aged 65 and over living in Chungbuk from January 6, 2020 to February 7, 2020, and for data analysis, χ2-test, t-test, Pearson correlation analysis, logistic regression analysis were performed. As a result, it was found that the quality of life as measured by GOHAI increased when they had oral health education experience, had a high level of oral health knowledge and oral health education request level, and had regular oral examinations. Based on the above results, in order to improve the quality of life related to oral health of the elderly, it is necessary to prepare policies to increase the participation rate by developing and continuously expanding opportunities for oral health education in various ways.

본 연구는 노인들의 구강보건지식수준과 구강보건교육요구도 및 구강건강평가지수(GOHAI)의 연관성을 파악하여 구강보건교육의 중요성을 강조하기 위해 실시하였다. 자료조사는 2020년 1월 6일부터 2020년 2월 7일까지 충북지역의 65세 이상 노인 191명을 대상으로 하였으며, 자료의 분석을 위해 χ2-test, 독립표본 t검정, Pearson 상관분석, 로지스틱 회귀분석을 시행하였다. 조사결과 GOHAI로 측정한 구강건강관련 삶의 질은 구강보건교육경험이 있고, 구강보건지식수준과 구강보건교육요구도가 높으며, 정기적인 구강검진을 받을수록 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 토대로 노인들의 구강건강관련 삶의 질 향상을 위해서는 구강보건교육의 기회를 다양하게 개발하고 지속적으로 확대하여 구강보건교육의 참여율을 높이는 정책 마련이 요구된다.
