Purpose: The purpose of this study were to investigate the self-reported quality of life and family burden and to examine the factors associated with the quality of life in patients with cancer. Methods: 216 patients participated in the cross-sectional study. The European Group of Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) and the Family Burden Scale were sent by mail to 2,000 cancer patients. Two hundred and sixteen patients answered the questionnaire. The stepwise multiple regression was conducted to analyze predictors of overall quality of life. Results: All subscales of EORTC QLQ-C30 were significantly correlated with family burden. The regression analysis of patients with cancer revealed some variables as significant predictors; performance, perceived severity, family burden, time since diagnosis, and sex. Conclusion: The results offer a number of recommendations for future research and nursing practice focused on primary care for patients with cancer and their family for improving quality of life.

The purpose of this study was to develop and validate the scale to measure dementia patient's caregiver burden of Korea. In the first phase of the study, 15 caregivers of dementia patients were interviewed to provide narrative data from which items were developed. Initially 65 items were generated from the interview data of 15 caregivers. Content validity was judged by two separate panels of experts with 27 professionals and 30 family caregivers. These items were analyzed through the Index of Content Validity and 33 items were selected which met .80 or more of the CVI. This preliminary FCBSD-K was tested with 207 adult caregivers for reliability and construct validity including item analysis and orthogonal(Varimax) factor analysis. Eight items were deleted because of high or low item-item correlation. The result of the second factor analysis produced six factors that coincided with the conceptual framework posed for the scale developed. The six factors were labeled as 'physio social factor' 'emotional factor' 'family cultural factor' 'role obligation' 'guilt feeling' and 'financial & supportive system factor'. The alpha coefficient relating to internal consistency was .9264 for reliability. In conclusion, cultural factor is related to dementia patient's caregiver burden and FCBSD-K was useful in assessing the dementia patient's caregiver burden in Korea.

Purpose: This study was performed to examine the relationship between caregiver burden and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in family caregivers of stroke patients in the community. Methods: Subjects were 33 stroke patients who had a experience of hospitalization during last 1 year and their family. Data were obtained from personal interview by nursing students in October, 2003. We assessed the functional status of stroke patients, caregiver burden and the HRQOL of caregivers using SF-8. Results: A higher subjective burden was related to dependent functional status of patients than independent(P<.01). The independent cognitive function of stroke patients and good health of caregivers were related to high HRQOL of caregivers. PCS and MCS of HRQOL were negatively correlated to subjective burden, -.34(p<.01) and -.37(p<.05). Conclusion: We founded functional status of stroke patients. caregiver burden and HRQOL of caregivers were related to each other. To improve the HRQOL of caregiver, decreasing burden of caregivers and the functional status improvement of stroke patients must be considered.

Purpose: This study was conducted to test the reliability and validity of Family Burden Questionnaire. Method: The subjects were 156 caregivers of children with acute or chronic disease. To test the reliability, internal consistency using Cronbach's α coefficient was analyzed, and factor analysis, known-group technique, and concurrent validity were utilized for validity test. Result: Cronbach's α coefficient of the tool was .89. Six factors were identified and explained 58.7% of the total variance. Through analysis using known-group technique, the difference of family burden between acute and chronic disease groups was statistically significant(t= -4.09, p<.001). Correlations with mood state, other family burden score by Family Burden Interview Schedule, quality of life, and health symptoms were also relatively high and statistically significant. Conclusion: Family Burden Questionnaire showed a relatively high validity and reliability to measure the burden of caregivers caring patients with various chronic conditions in Korea. For the further study, it may be reconsidered to identify the factor structure of the Family Burden Questionnaire with the various subjects from different age groups.

Purpose: This is to find out the correlation between a families burden on a cerebrovascular accident patient and the demand for nursing home. Method: The data was established by using structured questionnaires for 102 nursing families of cerebrovascular accident patient at three university hospitals. Result: 1) The total burden was showed to be at 3.21, which was some what higher than average. Total average of demand for nursing home was at 3.30, which was higher than average. 2) This showed static correlations between the economic, social, physical dependent and psychological burden, and demand for nursing home. The result represents that the higher burden showed a significantly positive correlation to the higher demand for nursing home. Conclusion: If a systemic support of nursing home is prepared the differentiated nursing home matched perfectly on each burden, the burden on a family of the patient can be decreased effectively.

The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between burden and burnout of the family care-givers for caring of terminal patients with cancer. A total of 99 convenience sample was recruited form hospitals. The data were collected by a direct interview with Questionnaire about family burden and burnout. The mean score of burnout of main care-givers was 2.98, and the mean score of burden was 3.03. The care-givers' burnout was significantly different by age, sex, job, duration of treatment, level of acceptance on the stage of death, and ability of daily living activities. The family care-givers' burden was significantly different by the jobs, complication of patients, level of acceptance on the stage of death, and ability of daily living activities. In conclusions, the burnout of family care-givers was highly and positively correlated with the burden.

목적: 장애우 가족에게 적용한 죽음준비 교육이 삶의 의미, 부담감, 극복력 및 죽음에 대한 태도에 미치는 효과를 파악하는 것이다. 방법: 대상자는 울산광역시에 소재한 장애인 종합복지관에 등록된 장애우 가족 16명이었다. 죽음준비 교육은 총 4부로 구성되었으며, 1부는 삶과 죽음의 신비와 소중함, 2부는 죽음의 의미와 평화로운 죽음을 위한 준비, 3부는 장례예식의 이해와 사별 후 적응, 4부는 유서 쓰기와 입관체험으로 진행되었다. 각 회기당 150분씩 주 1회, 총 10주간 실시하였으며, 회기별로 주제와 관련된 강의를 한 후 5~6명씩 3조로 나누어 토의하고 발표하도록 하였다. 수집된 자료는 SAS Window용(ver. 9.0)통계 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 결과: 죽음준비 교육 후 장애우 가족의 삶의 의미와 극복력은 증가하는 경향이 있었으며, 부담감은 감소하였고, 죽음에 대한 태도는 긍정적으로 변화하였다. 결론: 죽음준비 교육이 장애우 가족에게 삶의 의미와 죽음에 대한 태도를 긍정적으로 변화시키고 부담감을 감소시켰으므로 더 많은 장애우 가족들에게 확대 적용될 수 있기를 기대한다. 또한 죽음준비란 죽음의 순간을 준비하는 것은 물론 자신의 삶에 대한 점검이며 의미있는 삶을 사는 과정이므로 건강 프로그램(well-being)과 더불어 죽음준비 교육(well-dying)이 이루어지기를 제언한다.

본 연구의 목적은 미혼 성인자녀 부양부담감이 기혼 여성의 우울감에 미치는 영향과 그 과정에서 부부갈등의 매개효과를 검증하는데 있다. 이를 위해 여성가족패널(KLoWF) 7차년도 자료를 토대로 베이비부머 남편과 미혼 성인자녀 둔 기혼여성 1,076명을 추출해 구조방정식을 활용하여 분석하였다. 분석결과를 살펴보면 첫째, 미혼 성인자녀 부양부담감은 기혼여성의 우울감에 정(+)적인 영향을 미치고, 부부갈등에도 정(+)적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 둘째, 부부갈등은 기혼여성의 우울감에 정(+)적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 부부갈등은 미혼 성인자녀 부양부담감과 우울감 사이에 부분매개 역할을 하는 것으로 확인되었다. 이와 같은 연구결과를 근거로 기혼여성의 우울감을 낮추고 부부갈등을 해소시키기 위한 다양한 프로그램들을 제시하였다.

Purpose: To investigate the degree and relationship of the quality of life(QOL) and family burden in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation recipients(HSCTr) at admission and discharge to isolation unit. Method: Data were obtained by interviewing from 60 HSCTr and 50 of their primary caregivers' and were analyzed by SAS program. Result: The degree of quality of life in pre and post HSCTr was significantly lower in the group who had physical discomfort compared with those who had no physical discomfort. The mean score of quality of life in pre HSCTr was significantly lower compared with in post HSCTr. Objective burden of family was higher than subjective one. Conclusion: QOL in HSCTr showed lower in the group of who had medical history, physical discomfort, no hope for cure and more than 5 weeks of length of stay. On the basis of these results, it is necessary to develop nursing intervention and to apply nursing care for improving their quality of life.
