Method: Data was collected with questionares from 119 women registered in the gynecology department of a general hospital in Seoul who had undergone a hysterectomy. Result: There was a significant difference between the condition of pre and post operation coital frequency, sexual satisfaction, and spouse's attitude toward the extraction of the partner's uterus. There was a significant difference between their views of the operation. Twelve months after the operation sexual attitude of sexual aspects changed, but not in physical and psychological aspects. There was a significant difference between sexual attitude and satisfaction on sexual, psychological aspects, but not physical aspects.

본 연구는 오마하체계를 이용하여 보건소 방문간호사의 간호업무 수행도와 필요도를 조사한 서술적 조사연구이다. 방문간호사의 간호업무는 '개인위생', '통증', '약물요법', '영양', '신체활동', '위생', '수면과 휴식양상', '구강건강', '정신건강', '인지'순으로 수행도가 높았다. '성생활', '산후', '수입', '가족계획', '임신', '영성', '학대', '생식기능', '방임', '말과 언어' 순으로 간호업무 수행도가 낮았다. '성생활', '학대' '방임', '생식기능' 문제는 문제의 사정 및 적극적 개입을 위한 교육적 지원이 필요하다. '산후', '임신', '가족계획' 등의 문제는 출산지원을 위한 지역의 정책방향에 따라 방문간호사의 역량 강화가 필요하다. '수입', '주거', '지역사회자원과의 의사소통'은 보건복지 연계 및 정부와 지방자치단체의 정책적 지원이 필요하겠다. 본 연구결과는 방문간호사의 역할규명 및 역할확대를 위한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 본다.

Due to the ever increasing life-span of human beings, the average woman is living well into her 70's. Henceforth, they spend at least one-third of their life after menopause. Climacteric encompasses the time preceding, during, and proceeding menopause : a transitional period of shifting from the period of being fertile to the period of senescence. In other words, this is the time at which they lose the ability to reproduce. Menopause can influence a woman's sexual life immensely due to the physiological, social, and psychological changes that occur during that period. In korea, where some women still live according to Confucian Culture in terms of sexology, nurses can play a vital role in the dissemination of sexual facts to women. This study was designed to clarity the characteristic and satisfaction of sexual life. This was done according to the classification of three types of climacteric women : pre-meno-pausal, menopausal, and post-menopausal. I studied 159 climacteric women between the ages of 45 & 59, living in or around the vicinity of Taegu City. This study utilized the investigative tools for sexual life patterns which were constructed with field experts' consultation and reference review by the author. The sexual satisfaction was translated from DSFI. The climacteric symptoms were invented by Kupperman, This research is descriptive. The data was collected between July 15, 1998 and October 14, 1998. Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA and Pearson Correlations, and was computed with the SPSS program. The results obtained are summarized as follows; The frequency of sexual activity was highest in pre-menopause and declined after menopause. The frequency of genital caressing declined after menopause. The difference between the frequency of masturbation and coital pain was not significant according to the classification set forth in this experiment. Congruently, the frequency of orgasms declined after menopause. The mean satisfaction of sexual life is 27.1 years. The range of expected score is 9-45 years of age. Satisfaction was highest in the pre-menopausal group and proved to be statistically significant. Some of the general characteristics that affected the satisfaction a woman's sexual life in the climacteric stage during this project were ; age, income, satisfaction in younger pre-menopausal and the large income group than the other experimental groups.
