  • 당뇨병은 노화와 밀접한 관계가 있다. 이 때문에 나이가 들수록 당뇨병이 많이 발생한다. 실제 우리나라 한 대학병원의 조사에 따르면 65세 이상 노인 10 명 중 3명이 당뇨병환자로 나타났다. 이렇게 노인당뇨의 발병률이 점점 증가하고 있지만 노인 대부분은 그저 '늙어서 그런가보다'며 제대로 된 당뇨검사나 치료를 받지 않아 심각한 상황을 예고한다.

  • 의료기술과 생활형편의 향상에 의한 평균수명의 연장으로 우리 나라 노인 인구는 전 인구의 7$\%$를 넘어섰다. 이른바 고령화 사회가 된 것이다. 이처럼 노인 인구수가 급증하면서 눈에 띄게 늘고 있는 노인병 중의 하나가 당뇨병이다. 보고에 따라서는 20세에서 44세 사이의 연령대에 비해 65세 이상의 연령에서 10배나 더 높은 유병률을 보인다. 당뇨병이 있으면서도 노인이기 때문에 진단을 받지 않고 있는 경우를 합하면 더 늘어날지 모른다.

  • With increasing elderly living with diabetes, health professionals have focused on the relations between behaviors improving health status and life satisfaction. This research attempts to explain the influence of the health promotion behaviors on the life satisfaction of the elderly with diabetes. Also, we are focusing whether there is a mediating effect of depression between health promotion behaviors and life satisfaction of the elderly with diabetes. 685 persons with diabetes over 60 years of age were selected from the data of KLoSA (Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing), administered by The National Institute of Labor in 2006. Life satisfaction was measured by 5 items: health status, economic status, relationship with a spouse, relationship with children, and the quality of life. Health promotion behaviors were measured by 4 items: regular diet, exercise, smoking, and drinking. The mediating variable is the depression measured by CES-D10. As the method of analysis, the multiple regressions were used with SPSS 12.0. The result of the study shows that the health promotion behaviors have a positive influence on life satisfaction and a negative influence on depression. It was also verified that the depression variable has a partial mediating effect between health promotion behaviors and life satisfaction. These results present the importance of integrated (physical, psychological, and social) approach for the health promotion experts intervening with the elderly with diabetes.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the correlation between diabetes empowerment, health perception, and diabetes self-care behaviors with diabetes for the elderly in the community, and to identify the factors affecting diabetes self-care behavior in the elderly with diabetes. A survey was conducted on 80 diabetic elderly people over the age of 65 who were registered at a local public health center. The mean age was 71.15 years, and 41 males and 39 females were included. Diabetes self-care behavior showed a significant positive correlation with economic status (r=.245, p=.029) and diabetes empowerment (r=.406, p<.001), but health perception (r=.127, p=.263) did not show a significant correlation. As a result of this study, diabetes empowerment and economic status of the diabetic elderly were found to be significant influencing factors on diabetes self-care behavior in the diabetic elderly, and the explanatory power of the model was 19.6% (F=10.623, p<.001). Therefore, if a community program is developed to improve the diabetes empowerment of the elderly with diabetes in the community and economic support policies are also provided at the level of public health, it will be possible to improve the self-care behavior of the elderly with diabetes in the community.
