Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the level of QoL of the terminal cancer patients at home and to identify any influencing factors on QoL. Method: Subjects of this study consisted of 72 terminal cancer patients who were receiving home care nursing for more than 2 weeks in 6 general hospitals. Data were collected by a self-reporting questionnaire on QoL, pain, physical functioning, and symptom experience from Feb, 2006 to Dec, 2006. Data were analyzed by t-test, one way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression using SPSS Win 14.0. Results: Mean score of QoL was 98.6(230 in total). Except the level of family coping, general characteristics and disease related variables did not show significant difference in QoL. QoL was higher in the family with better coping, and QoL showed negative correlation with three types of pain, physical functioning, and symptom experiences. Least pain, physical functioning, and level of family coping explained QoL up to 26.7%. Conclusion: The QoL was closely related with pain, physical functioning, symptom experience, and family coping. And the least pain, physical functioning and level of family coping were important factors influencing on QoL of terminal cancer patients. However, some other variables influencing the QoL need to be investigated in the future.

Purpose: The purposes of this study were to determine the core nursing interventions in nursing notes and the practice which was perceived by nurses of an oncology unit with patients with terminal cancer. Also, comparing interventions in nursing notes with interventions in perceived practice was done. Method: Subjects were 44 nursing records of patients with terminal cancer who had died from Jan. to Dec. 2002 at C University Hospital and 83 nurses who were working on an oncology unit for more than one year. Data was collected using a Nursing Interventions Classification and analyzed by means of mean and t-test. Results: The most frequent nursing intervention was 'nausea management' in the nursing note and was 'medication administration: oral' in perceived practice. The frequency of nursing interventions in the nursing record was lower than in perceived practice. Conclusion: This study finds that nurses actually practice nursing care, but they may omit records. To correct for omitted nursing records, development of a systematic nursing record system, continuous education and feedback is recommended.

The purpose of this study was to develop Nurse's Suffering Experience Scale and to test the reliability and validity of the instrument. Method: The subjects used to verify the scale's reliability and validity were 220 nurses who were taking care of the end stage cancer patients, while working at university and general hospitals in Daegu and Kyungbuk province from April 20. to July 10, 2001. The data was analyzed by the SPSS/WIN 8.0 program. Results: A factor analysis was conducted, and items that had a factor loading more than .40, and an eigen value more than 1.0. were selected. The factor analysis classified a total of seven factors statistically, and it's communality was 44%. The explanation of factors based on the conceptual framework and item content are as follows: The first factor was expanding self consciousness, the second factor was forming empathy with family, the third factor was professional challenge, the fourth factor was change of values, the fifth factor was spiritual sublimation, the sixth factor was helplessness, and finally the seventh factor was rejection to death. Cronbach's coefficient to test reliability of the scale was .8665 for total of 44 items. The Scale for Nurse's Suffering Experience developed in the study was identified as a tool with a high degree of reliability and validity. Therefore this scale can be effectively utilized for the evaluation of the degree of nurse's suffering experience in clinical settings.

Purpose: This study was to identify the relationship between perceived family support and quality of life in hospitalized patient with terminal cancer. Method: Study subjects were 104 patients with terminal cancer who were hospitalized and treated at K university hospital, in Busan. Perceived family support and quality of life were measured using the Kang's Revised Family Support Scale and Youn's Quality of Life scale for terminal patients. Results: 1) The mean score of perceived family support was $4.23{\pm}0.61$. The mean score of quality of life was $5.83{\pm}1.37$. 2) The perceived family support was significantly different with primary care giver, food type, medical period after diagnosis. 3) The levels of quality of life was significantly different by number of children, effect of religion on the one' life, perceived state of disease and pain. 4) There was moderate positive correlation between perceived family support and quality of life. Conclusions: Increase in perceived family support was associated with increase in quality of life in hospitalized patients with terminal cancer. It is necessary that the development of nursing education program for family which help to support the patient with terminal cancer for increasing the quality of life of patient with terminal cancer.

Purpose: The main purpose of this study was to develop a substantive theory on the process of the spiritual experience in Christian terminal cancer patients in the context of Korean society and culture. The question for the study was 'What is the spiritual process in Christian terminal cancer patients?'. Method: The research method used was the Grounded Theory Method developed by Strauss & Corbin(1998). Participants for this study in total were 9 Christian terminal cancer patients. Data was collected using in-depth interviews during April 2003 to March. 2004. Data collection and analysis were carried out at the same time. Result: From the analysis 58 concepts and 20 categories emerged. The categories were presented into a paradigm, which consisted of condition-actions/interactions-consequences. The theoretical scheme was described by organizing categories. In total, 4 stages were developed from the condition-actions/ interactions-consequences. Throughout these stages, the 'overcoming process of unbalanced interconnectedness' was the core category discovered. Conclusion: This study provides a framework for the development of individualized care interventions in the 'overcoming process of unbalanced interconnectedness' for Christian terminal cancer patients.

목적: 의학의 발달로 인구가 고령화됨에 따라, 사망의 원인이 되는 질환 및 동반질환의 유병기간은 함께 증가하고 있으며, 고령환자의 임종기 관리에 대한 연구의 필요성도 더욱 증가하고 있다. 그러나 임종기 치료 강도에 대한 국내연구는 암환자에 국한되어 있으며, 비-암환자의 임종기 치료 강도에 대한 국내 연구는 없었다. 그래서 본 연구는 암환자와 비-암환자의 임종기 치료 강도에 대해 연구하였다. 방법: 경희대학교병원에서 2014년 12월 1일부터 2015년 3월 31일까지 4개월간 사망자의 의무기록을 조사하여 암환자와 비-암환자의 기본 인구학적 정보, 임종기 치료 강도, 심폐소생술 금지 요청서 경향 등에 대해 비교 연구하였다. 결과: 비-암환자가 암환자에 비해 나이가 많았음에도 불구하고(73.7 vs. 67.4, P=0.001), 중환자실 치료(87.4% vs. 36.0%, P<0.001), 기도 삽관 및 기계 호흡(63.2% vs. 24%, P<0.001), 응급 투석(28.7% vs. 8.0%, P=0.001)을 더 많이 받은 것으로 나타났으며, 나이(P=0.038), 암의 유병 여부(P<0.001)가 임종기 침습적 치료에 영향을 미치는 인자로 나타났다. 결론: 임종기 치료 강도는 비-암환자에서 더 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 나이와 암의 유병여부가 임종기 치료 강도를 결정하는 중요한 인자였다.

현대 의학은 과학과 더불어 놀라운 만큼 발전을 거듭하고 있기에 각종 암 환자의 조기 발견으로 인하여 인간의 생명 연장에 큰 공헌을 하고 있다. 조기 발견의 일환으로 시행되는 핵의학 검사 중에서 Bone scan을 통한 암 환자의 전이 여부와 전이되는 시기, 정도를 연구함으로서 암 발견의 초기와 말기의 차이뿐만 아니라 그 시기를 추정한 데이터로 적극적 치료를 수행할 수 있기를 기대하고자 한다. 더불어 암 판정을 받은 환자는 그 시기를 더 지연시킬 수 있는 필요적 방어를 수행할 수 있도록 최대한 지도가 가능하리라 판단이 된다. 암 판정의 초기에는 부단한 노력과 투자로 검사와 치료를 병행하다가 일정시간이 경과하고 난 후에는 다소 소홀해지는 경우가 빈번하게 나타남을 알 수 있었으며, 그로 인해 암세포의 전이가 활발하게 진행되어짐을 확정할 수 있었다. 이는 치료 목적을 가지고 대하는 각 의료기관 및 의료기관 종사자에게 있어 간과 할 수 있는 부분이 아니므로 보다 적극적 대처를 요하는 사안이다.
