This study was designed to investigate the psychological effect of aromatherapy on chronic hemodialysis patients. Methods : 40 subjects of this study selected from Je Young-Sung Internal Medicine Clinic in Busan. The experimental group were random assigned to 20 subjects who had visited on Monday, & Wendesday & Friday and received aromatherapy every day for 2 weeks. the control group were random assigned to 20 subjects who had visited on Tuesday & Thursday & Saturday and did not receive any intervention. Experiment had been conducted from July. 7th July 21, 2003 and anxiety by Spilberger's state anxiety scale and depression by Zung's Scale were measured in the course of aromatherapy for both experimental group and control group.

  • 목적: 보완대체요법을 이용하는 인구 및 비용이 전 세계적으로 꾸준히 늘고 있다. 젊은 인구에 비해 노인인구에서 이용량이 높을 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구에서는 노인사망자를 대상으로 사망전 6개월간의 보완대체요법 이용실태를 조사하고자 했다. 방법: 2001년 하반기동안 사망한 후 건강보험에서 장제비를 지급 받은 서울지역 65세 이상 노인 4210명을 선정하였다. 이들을 성별 연령별로 배열하여 14명씩 총 301군으로 구분하였고, 각 군에서 1명씩 선택하여(총 301명) 사망시 연령, 성별, 사망 원인질환, 보완대체요법에 대한 설문조사를 시행하였다. 보완대체요법은 심신조정요법, 한의학 관련요법, 한방민간요법, 식이 영양 요법, 수기신체 치료 요법, 약물요법, 에너지 요법으로 총 7가지 영역으로 구분하였다. 결과: 사망 전 6개월간 보완대체요법을 이용한 사망자는 247명으로 전체 대상자의 83.1%였다. 보완대체요법중 특히 식이 영양 요법의 이용률(65.5%)이 가장 높았고 약물요법(29.9%)도 많이 이용하였다. 성별과 사망원인에 따라 이용률에 유의한 차이를 보였는데 여성(60%)이 남성(40%)보다 높았고, 노인성 질환군(30.8%)이 가장 높고, 암인 군(16.8%)이 가장 낮았다. 보완대체요법의 전체 만족도와 부작용 점수를 보면 6점 만점에 평균 4.25점, 부작용은 평균 5.55점으로 부작용이 거의 없었다. 식이 영양요법의 만족도(평균4.41점)가 가장 높았고 수기신체치료요법(평균 3.38점)이 가장 낮았다. 수기신체치료요법에서 부작용이 가장 없었고(평균 5.88점), 한의학 관련요법의 부작용 점수가 가장 낮았다(평균 5.35점). 또한 연령과 사망원인 질병에 따라 만족도와 부작용 수준에 유의한 차이를 보였다. 결론: 65세 이상 노인의 대다수가 사망전 6개월간 보완대체요법을 이용하였으며 전체 만족도도 상당히 높고 부작용도 거의 없었다. 현실적인 대안을 마련하는 것이 필요하다.0.04{\pm}0.20$ P=0.1519), 우울 정도, 불안 정도, 스트레스 정도는 자가치료 순응도가 좋을수록 감소하는 경향을 보였으나, 통계적으로 유의하지는 않았다. 아로마 자가 치료군에서 수축기 혈압은 약간 증가하였으나 통계학적 의의는 없었다($4.53{\pm}14.43mmHg\;vs\;0.0{\pm}7.22mmHg$, P=0.152). 자가 치료군에서 환자들은 두통(20%), 감각이상(6.7%), 오심(6.7%) 등의 부작용을 호소했으나, 이들 모두 일시적인 것으로 자가치료를 중단할 정도는 아니었다. 결론: 유방암 환자들에게 아로마 손 마사지 교육을 시킨 후 자기 스스로 2주간 시행한 결과, 통증강도, 우울 및 불안 정도가 의미 있게 감소하였다.임의 유무와 이유에 대해서는, '망설이지 않았다'(34명)가 '망설였다'(6명)보다 높게 나타났다. 사별가족모임에 참석한 후의 소감, 개선사항, 아쉬운 점에 대한 질문에는, 대부분의 응답자들이 '의미 있는 시간이었다', '사별가족에 대한 배려와 관심에 대해 감사한다.'라는 긍정적인 응답이 있었고, '고인에 대한 회상을 할 수 있는 자리여서 좋았다.' '사별가족모임이 일년에 한 번이 아니라 계속적으로 있었으면 한다.', '한편은 슬프고 한편은 기쁘다.' 등의 의견이 있었다. 사별 후 느끼는 가장 큰 어려움에 대해 참석가족은, '우울감'(10명), '외로움'(7명)의 빈도가 높았고, '그리움'(1명), '경제적/역할상 어려움'(4명), 무응답(6명)으로, '우울감'이 가장 큰 어려움으로 나타났다. 반면에, 비참석 가족에서는, 가장 큰 어려움은 '경제적/역할상 어려움'(6명), '외로움'(5명), '우울감'(3명), '후회감'(1명), '고인에 대한 원망감'(1명), '특별히 어려움이 없다'(1명)라고 답하였다. 결론: 호스피스 서비스를

  • In this paper, we checked health problems of outpatients who suffered from cancer, apoplexy, and arthritis. After accessing each patients condition, in order to alleviate their sufferings, we introduced several methods of aroma therapy as a holistic approach to these health problems. Aromatherapy, which can be defined as a nature-friendly complementary / alternative method, has its great merit in its easy way of treatment by the family member of patient or patient himself. Recently, it was scientifically proved that aroma therapy has various curative effects. The easiness of applying aroma therapy is full of suggestions concerned with the future of nursing science. Recently, in the domain of home care nursing, there happened a fundamental change in its structure: a change from the supplier/professional-centered to the consumer/patient-centered one. With this change, home care nursing as a cherished desire of nursing science obtained its legal ground in the established medical programs and, in the same context, patients came to have the chance to receive demanded medical services in their home without going through complicated hospital admission procedures. Considering the future status of home care nursing as a major contributor in the consumer-centered structure of medical health service, aroma therapy as a complementary/alternative method is expected to contribute not only to establishing more effective structure of health service supply but also to resolving chronic health problem of outpatients.

  • Purpose: To investigate the effectiveness of aromatherapy on blood pressure, heart rate variability, aortic pulse wave velocity and the aortic augmentation index of essential hypertensive patients. Methods: Using a coin toss, 22 participants were assigned to the experimental group and 20 to the control. The experimental group was given a blend of oils of lemon (Citrus limonum), lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), and ylang ylang (Cananga odorata) which were prepared in the ratio of 2:2:1, respectively. The control group was given an artificial lemon fragrance of Limonene (35 cc) and Citral (15 cc) mixture. The experiment, inhalation, was conducted for 3 weeks (2 min per inhalation, 2 times per day) to both groups. Results: There was a noticeable difference in systolic blood pressure between the groups (p=.001), however the difference in diastolic blood pressure between the two groups was not significant. There was a notable difference in sympathetic nerve system activity of heart rate variability (p=.047). However, the differences in aortic pulse wave velocity or the aortic augmentation index were not significant. Conclusion: Aromatherapy is effective in lowering systolic blood pressure and sympathetic nerve system activity.
