목표 : 본 연구는 인천 지역에 사는 24~60개월 영유아를 가진 부모들의 보완대체요법에 대한 인식을 조사한 연구로, 보완대체요법 활용을 통한 한방과의 연계에 대한 가능성을 타진하기 위해 연구되었다. 방법 : 박지현(2007)이 사용한 질문지를 본 연구에 맞게 수정 보완하여 사용하였다. 수집한 자료는 SPSS 12를 사용하여 분석하였다. 결과 : 1) 영유아를 둔 한국의 모든 어머니는 자녀의 건강에 관심이 많았으며, 올바른 생활 습관을 갖게 하는 것이 가장 중요하다고 생각하였다. 2) 실제 80% 정도의 부모가 자녀에게 보완대체요법을 제공하였으며, 주로 예방차원에서 제공하기 때문에 질병이 발생하기 전에 사용을 하였다. 3) 보완대체요법은 질병이 발생했을 때 사용을 하지만, 보완대체요법의 사용은 주로 병원치료와 병행하는 경우가 많았다. 4) 직접 보완대체요법을 사용한 부모들의 80% 정도는 긍정적인 반응을 보였고, 이들 중 81% 정도는 다시 사용을 하겠다는 반응을 보였다. 결론 : 영유아 부모들은 건강 증진을 위한 보완대체의학에 대해 긍정적으로 인식하고 있었다. 이러한 결과는 한의학 영역에서 영유아 부모들에게 자녀의 건강을 효과적으로 증진시킬 수 있는 전문적인 의료지식뿐만 아니라 이들이 한의학에 접근할 수 있는 다양한 방법을 고안할 필요성을 제시하고 있다.

Purpose : This study describes how often complementary and alternative medical(CAM) therapies, what patterns of CAM therapies utilization, what types of CAM therapies and why CAM therapies are used in children and adolescent with chronic disease. Methods : We interviewed and filled out questionnaires with parents of patients suffering from asthma, atopic dermatitis, congenital myopathy, epilepsy and so on from Mar 2004 to Aug 2004. Results : Two hundred fifty two parents answered questionnaires; 160 cases(63.5 percent) had used CAM therapies. Utilization of CAM therapies according to each chronic disease was as follows : congenital myopathy(100 percent), atopic dermatitis(91.1 percent), asthma(72.5 percent), chronic diarrhea (50.0 percent), epilepsy(17.1 percent) etc. Types of CAM therapy were as follows : dietary supplement (31.1 percent), herb medicine(23.4 percent), massage(14.2 percent), acupuncture(4.6 percent) etc. Sixty four(40.0 percent) case underwent more than two types of CAM therapies simultaneously. One hundred thirty three(83.1 percent) case were asked through non-medical prescription. Ninety nine(61.9 percent) case were recognized positive effect of CAM therapies. Parents' and childrens' ages were influential factors in CAM therapies utilization : the older the parents and the younger the children, the higher the utilization. Conclusion : Although patients receive treatment with western medicine, many of them not only undergo CAM therapies, especially more than two types, but also recognize the positive effects of CAM therapies. As a result, we suggest that it is easy to use of CAM therapies, and the positive effects of CAM therapies are prominent, domestically. Therefore, medical approach and study about the effectiveness and side effects of CAM therapies is necessary to avoid the imprudent use of such therapies.

본 연구에서는 한국 인구의 노인층의 증가에 인하여 높아진 노인들의 건강에 관심도 높아지고 있으며 보완대체요법은 오랜 역사적 배경을 가지고 있으나 민간 요법으로만 인식되어 활용되고 있는 보완대체요법은 노인병 예방과 치료에 도움을 줄 수 있으므로 현재 노인층에서의 보완대체요법의 사용 현황을 분석해서 추후 활용방안을 찾고자 한다.

The aim of this study is to compare the differences in health promotion behaviors by the use of complementary alternative therapy(CAT) in elderly women with osteoarthritis. A total of 621 elderly women with osteoarthritis from public health centers and their branches at a city of C state were enrolled. This study analyzed the frequency and percentage of complementary alternative therapy utilization; a Chi-square test was used for utilization analysis according to subjects' general characteristics and disease features. Degree of health promotion behaviors according to CAT utilization was analyzed by a t-test and ANOVA. The study found that the CAT utilization rate for the total of 621 people was 61.7 %. For health promotion behaviors according to CAT utilization, statistically significant differences were found in exercise (p<0.001), health responsibility (p<0.001) and self-realization (p=0.016) from the domains. This study demonstrated the differences of health promotion behaviors based on CAT utilization. Due to the results of this study it is notable to mention that counseling, instruction for CAT utilization, and strategy development for health promotion are necessary for elderly women with osteoarthritis.

Objectives: The aim of this study is to analyze the utilization behaviour and influencing factors of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) therapies among elderly people with chronic diseases. Methods: The study population was selected among 9 welfare facilities for the aged in 2 cities among Daegu Metropolitan City & Gyeongsangnam Province by two-stage cluster sampling. 250 senior citizens participated in a face-to-face interview using a structured questionnaire. Logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the association between the utilization of CAM therapies and various characteristics of the elderly. All statistics were analyzed using the PASW (ver 18.0). Results: Among 233 elderly peoples, 70.4% (164 persons) had used various kinds of CAM therapies (including nutritional methods, pharmacologic and biologic treatments, etc.) more than once during the last year. 48.8% (64 persons) ~ 60.7% (88 persons) of the elderly used CAM therapies without health and medical experts' counsel. The elderly with perceptions of CAM therapy used it 2 times more than those without knowledge of CAM therapies. The number of chronic diseases was more likely to increase the usage of nutritional methods (OR=2.92, 95% CI: 1.07-7.97), manipulative and body-based practices (OR=5.85, 95% CI: 1.97-17.34), pharmacologic and biologic treatments (OR=2.92, 95% CI: 1.49-8.17). Elderly with diabetes used nutritional methods 3.76 (95% CI: 1.49-9.47) more than elderly without diabetes. Conclusions: CAM therapies use in the aged with chronic diseases appears common. The findings suggest that the clinical efficacy and safety of CAM therapies on medical management of chronic disease may be investigated and that patient-physician communication need to be strengthened.

Today modern people have been searching on managing themselves in easy ways without side-effects to lead a healthy and quality life, accordingly concerns about complementary and alternative medicine have been increasing. The scientific term' complementary and alternative medicine' has been originally used in the US and has become the general term for natural treatment of medical methods, which can be suggested as an alternative solution to modern medical problems. There should be a study based on users' subjectivity to reinvigorate complementary and alternative medicine more than it does now. The purpose of this study is to offer basic materials when assessing practical applications on complementary and alternative medicine using the Q method which is subjective pattern analysis, help understand features of complementary and alternative therapy according to patterns, and find out preferences for patterns of complementary and alternative therapy. As a result patterns of complementary and alternative medicine were classified into three types. Firstly, type I prefers to biological/herbal treatment. Secondly, type II prefers to mixed treatments. Thirdly, type III prefers to manual healing.

여기서는 보완대체의학의 임상효능을 평가하기 위한 일반적인 연구원칙들을 제시하였다. 어떻게 우리가 보완대체의학을 평가할 것인가? 그것이 정말 통상의학과 다른가? 우리는 보완대체의학을 통상의학과 비교하여 우리의 연구 질문들을 다르게 제시해야만 하는가? 보완대체의학은 안전하고 경제적인가? 그리고 우리가 이러한 전문적인 이슈들을 어떻게 제시할 것인가? 보완대체의학 연구는 관심을 가진 임상가들에게 지적인 도전을 제시 한다. 과학적으로 평가하는 것은 가능하긴 하지만 어렵다. 특정 약물치료를 통한 무작위대조 임상시험들은 침술, 동종요법, 수기요법과 같은 유사한 분야의 학문들보다 계획하고 투여하는 것이 훨씬 쉽다. 보완대체의학 분야에서 임상연구의 전술과 전략들은 개념상의 연속되는 도전들을 제시할 것이다.
