  • 본 연구는 방문건강관리사업 대상자 중 취약한 노인여성과 노인증후군 관련요인에 대한 인과관계 모형을 규명하여 취약한 노인 여성의 보건의료서비스 제공 시 효율적인 방안제시를 위한 기초자료로 활용하고자 시행하였다. 연구대상자는 2008년 7월 1일부터 9월 30일까지의 기간 동안 전국 보건소에 등록된 방문건강관리사업 대상자 중 동의된 65세 이상 노인여성 1,350명을 선정하여 훈련된 조사원이 직접면담을 통해 조사하였다. 수집된 자료 중 불충분한 29명을 제외한 1,321명을 최종 분석대상으로 하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 17.0 프로그램을 이용하여 빈도분석 및 카이제곱 검정, t-검정, ANOVA, 사후검정은 Tukey를 이용하였으며, 유의한 변수들을 선정하여 로지스틱 회귀분석을 이용하여 분석 하였다. 연구결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 허약과 관련 있는 노인증후군위험요인은 우울, 요실금, 낙상력, 일상적 수행활동(ADL)으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 둘째, 허약에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 연령이 75세 이상의 고령일수록, 우울과 요실금의 증상이 있을 때, 최근 낙상경험이 있을 때 허약의 증가 위험이 높은 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 셋째, 노인증후군의 위험요인 증가에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 평생 동안 담배를 5갑 이상 피웠을 때, 당뇨병이 있을 때로 나타났다(p<0.05). 이상 결과를 볼 때, 취약 노인 대상으로 노인증후군, 허약의 향상을 위해서는 만성질환관리 프로그램 뿐 만 아니라 체계적인 근력강화 운동 및 정신건강관리 프로그램의 충분한 확대보급이 반드시 필요하다.

  • This study conducts empirical research on gender differentials of economic resources in old age. The economic resources are assessed by the presence of independent income source and the amount of total income. The study, based on nation-wide survey of the elderly, examines the effects of individual level variables and household level ones. Also, it compares such effects between male and female elderly. The analysis shows that several variables have gender specific effects. Among them, particularly interesting and important are marital status and coresidence with children. The positive effect of having spouse is greater among female elderly than among male elderly. Also, while coresidence with children among male elderly has insignificant or slightly positive relation to their own economic resources, it has a negative relation among female elderly. These results indicate that female elderly are dependent on their husbands and children. The study suggests that future research on the elderly incorporate gender differentials into models attempting to capture diversity within the elderly population.

  • This study was to investigate basic level of physical activity test that reflects activity of daily living(ADL) for institutionalized elderly women. The subjects were 105 elderly women over than 65 years living in long-term care facilities located in Daejeon and Chungnam. The measured eight items related to ADL were tested and the data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, factors analysis and correlation. The results were statistically significant differences. Among eight test items, two factors(muscle strength and mobility) were extracted by principal component factor analysis(PCA). The two factors are appropriate domains for assessment of basic physical activity of institutionalized elderly women. By using Pearson's correlation, between two factors and age, the first principal component scores were significantly decreased with age increasing. Degradation of ADL must be prevented for institutionalized elderly women through maintain muscle strength and mobility.

Some implications of the findings are added.

  • The purpose of this study was to explore the level of anger and social support and to identify factors affecting anger in elderly women. This was a cross-sectional descriptive survey. A convenience sample of 155 elderly women was recruited from two senior welfare centers and three nursing homes in J city. Data were collected from June 15 to July 15, 2010 through interviews using a structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple linear regression using the SPSS WIN 18.0 program. The level of social support and anger was 3.73 and 2.72 out of 5, respectively. Anger was statistically significantly different according to type of residence (B=0.21, t=2.42, ${\rho}$=.017), psychiatric medication (B=0.66, t=4.93, ${\rho}$ <.001), physical medication (B=0.41, t=4.22, ${\rho}$ <.001), and evaluation support (B=-0.15, t=-3.00, ${\rho}$=.004), and these accounted 33.0% of anger. Providing proper information and developing social support program would be useful for managing anger of elderly women.
