Abstract

This study was to identify the association between osteoporosis knowledge and performance of osteoporosis preventive behaviors among low-income middle-aged women, and to determine the impact of these variables on osteoporosis preventive behaviors. The subjects were 317 middle-aged women from low-income who visited three general hospitals in P city, and data were collected from February 1, 2021 to December 30, 2022 using structured questionnaires. The collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and Stepwise multiple linear regression using SPSS/WIN 27.0 program. As a result of the study, the osteoporosis knowledge of the subjects was low at 11.97±6.89 points, which showed a difference in the case of osteoporosis prevention education, fracture experience. The osteoporosis prevention behavior was low at 41.03±7.63 points, which showed a difference according to religion, comorbidity, osteoporosis prevention education and fracture experience, and subjective health status. There was a statistically positive correlation between osteoporosis knowledge and osteoporosis prevention behavior(r=.527, p<.001), and the factors affecting osteoporosis prevention behavior were fracture experience(𝛽=.415, p<.001), osteoporosis prevention education(𝛽=.359, p<.001), and self-rated health(𝛽=.186, p<.001). Therefore, it is necessary to develop a program that can promote osteoporosis prevention behavior of middle-aged women in low-income and to prepare measures to encourage participation.

본 연구는 저소득층 중년 여성의 골다공증 지식, 골다공증 예방행위의 상관관계 및 골다공증 예방행위에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구대상자는 P시에 소재한 3개 종합병원에 내원한 저소득층 중년 여성 317명이며, 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 2021년 2월 1일부터 2022년 12월 30일까지 자료를 수집하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS/WIN 27.0 프로그램을 이용하여 기술 통계, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, Stepwise multiple linear regression으로 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 연구대상자의 골다공증 지식은 11.97±6.89점으로 낮게 나타났고, 골다공증 예방 교육 및 골절 경험에서 차이를 보였다. 골다공증 예방행위는 41.03±7.63점으로 낮았고, 종교, 동반질환, 골다공증 예방 교육 및 골절 경험, 주관적 건강상태에 따라 차이를 보였다. 골다공증 지식과 골다공증 예방행위는 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였고(r=.527, p<.001), 골다공증 예방행위에 영향을 미치는 요인은 골절 경험(𝛽=.415, p<.001), 골다공증 예방 교육(𝛽=.359, p<.001), 주관적 건강상태(𝛽=.186, p<.001) 순으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구 결과를 토대로 저소득층 중년 여성의 골다공증 예방행위를 증진시킬 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하고, 참여를 권장할 수 있는 방안을 마련하는 등의 지속적인 관리가 이루어져야 할 것이다.
