Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the satisfaction level of care services depending on the activities of daily living and types of care services for inpatients with chronic disease. Methods: The participants consisted of 156 chronically ill patients. A structured questionnaire and personal interviews were used for collecting the data. The data were analyzed using SPSS (ver. 12.0) program for frequency, t-test, ANOVA, multiple regression analysis. Results: The chronically ill patients taken care of by family members were more satisfied with care services than those taken care of by paid caregivers. Also, the more able the patients were for their daily living activities, they were more satisfied with care services. In addition, type of care services was the most important factor in terms of affecting patients' satisfaction with care services most. Conclusion: The result of this study suggests that nurses need to pay more attention to those with low activities of daily living and taken care of by paid caregivers, who have the probability of low satisfaction of care services.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of Tai Chi exercise on loneliness, sleep pattern, and instrumental activities of daily living in elderly women. Methods: A quasi-experimental design, a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest was used. Elderly women who agreed to participated in the study were assigned into an experimental group (n=20) or a control group (n=20). The experimental group participated in Tai Chi exercise program (Sun-style 12 forms) for 50 minutes per session, 2 times a week for 8 weeks. Tai Chi exercise program consisted of 10 minutes for warm-up, 35 minutes for main session, and 5 minutes for cooling down. Study outcomes were measured through study questionnaires. Data were analyzed using Chi-square test, t-test and Mann-Whitney test by SPSS WIN 14.0 program. Results: Compared with the control group, the experimental group showed significant improvement in loneliness (t=-2.733, p=.009), sleep pattern (t=2.552, p=.015), and instrumental activities of daily living (z=-2.171, p=.030). Conclusion: Tai Chi exercise program may be an effective nursing intervention for elderly women.

Purpose: This is a descriptive survey research study that identifies the intrapersonal, interpersonal, and organizational and community factors affecting the instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) in community-dwelling seniors. Methods: The study used data from a 2017 national survey of senior citizens, and includes 10,299 subjects aged 65 years or more. Complex sampling was performed to increase accuracy of the population, and hierarchical logistic regression was performed to identify the factors affecting IADL in seniors. Results: Amongst the organizational and community factors, we determined that the number of health centers, welfare facilities for senior citizens, hospital beds, and community sport facilities affected IADL in seniors, even after adjusting for intrapersonal and interpersonal factors. Conclusion: Helping seniors to maintain IADL independence for a longer duration is essential for their physical and social independence. Therefore, when establishing and developing policies for health promotion programs, efforts should be undertaken to actively reflect the level of IADL functions, and to create an accessible health and medical welfare environment by considering characteristics of senior citizens for operating programs.

Purpose: This study was conducted to identify factors associated with stroke patients' quality of life (QOL) and examine the mediating effects of interpersonal relations in the relationships of activities of daily living (ADL) and body image with QOL. Methods: In this study, 160 stroke patients were recruited from an outpatient clinic of a university hospital and rehabilitation clinic of a long-term care hospital. Participants completed a questionnaire which included sociodemographic characteristics, ADL, body image, interpersonal relation, and QOL. Descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, multiple regression analysis, and process macro mediation analysis were conducted using SPSS. Results: The mean scores were 91.01 (range 6~100) for ADL, 61.19 (range 40~79) for body image, 87.53 (range 29~123) for interpersonal relations, and 186.67 (range 71~243) for QOL. Multiple regression analyses showed that ADL, body image, interpersonal relations, and participation in group activities after stroke were significantly associated with QOL among stroke patients (p<.05). There were no mediating effects of interpersonal relations in the relationships of ADL and body image with QOL (p>.05). Conclusion: This study showed that there is a need for physical, psychological, and social recovery to improve the QOL of stroke patients.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify the factors affecting the life satisfaction during the communal life of the elderly in rural areas. Methods: A total of 143 subjects were selected through convenient sampling. Data were collected in self-reporting questionnaires from 1 August to 30 August 2019. The data were analyzed with SPSS/WIN 23.0. Results: The Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) was significantly different according to age, education, and cohabitation. Depression was significantly different according to gender, age, education, and cohabitation. Life satisfaction was significantly different according to age, education, religion, and cohabitation. There was a positive correlation between Instrumental Activities of Daily Living and depression, except for life satisfaction. 41.0% of life satisfaction was explained by depression, religion, and IADL. Conclusion: The results of this study may be useful in understanding the life satisfaction level of elderly communal life and developing more specific programs for mental activity programs, and depression management strategies are required.

Purpose: To investigate the relationships among stress, depression, family function, and activities of daily living in elderly females. Methods: Using a descriptive correlation for the study design, data was collected from 134 elderly females older than 60 years of age. Result: The level of depression among the subjects was 6.04($\pm5.30$) and level of stress was 1.62($\pm.70$). The performance capacity of the activities of daily living was 17.79($\pm0.87$), and the instrumental activities of daily living was 22.33($\pm2.66$). The family function was 2.82($\pm3.47$). Depression and stress showed a positive correlation(p<.001) and had a negative correlation with family function(p=.025), as the correlation with instrumental activities of daily living was negatively related(p=.008). Stress had a positive relationship with family function(p<.001). and was negatively related to instrumental activities of daily living (p=.041). Conclusion: For health promotion of elderly females, it is critical to make an effort to establish and constantly develop a program, as well as policy for the health of the elderly considering and understanding gender differences.

의학 기술의 발달로 인해 현 사회의 노령 인구가 급증하는 가운데 노화로 인한 노인들의 신체능력 및 인지능력의 저하가 전 세계의 사회적 문제로 자리 잡았다. 인지능력의 저하는 치매로까지 연결될 수 있어 초기에 관리를 하는 것이 매우 중요하며, 인지능력 향상을 목적으로 다양한 콘텐츠가 제작되고 있다. 최근 다양한 분야에서 콘텐츠들이 디지털화를 통해 효용을 높이고 있으나 노인을 위한 콘텐츠는 사용자의 특성상 디지털 콘텐츠로의 전환 및 활성화가 쉽지 않아 아날로그 콘텐츠가 현재까지도 일상 및 병원 치료활동에 주로 활용되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 현재 사용 중인 아날로그 콘텐츠의 사례분석을 통해 노인 콘텐츠의 특성을 파악하고 한계점을 도출해 노인 인지능력 향상을 위한 콘텐츠가 제공해야 하는 특성과 발전해나가야 할 방향성을 제시하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 노인 경도인지장애 개선을 위한 서비스디자인 가이드라인 개발을 위한 선행연구로 수행되었다.

목적 : 본 연구는 뇌졸중 환자를 대상으로 한 이중과제 훈련(Dual-task training)의 효과를 알아본 연구들을 분석하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 연구방법 : NDSL, RISS, PubMed, CoChrane, EMBASE를 통해 지난 10년 간 국내외 학술지에 게재된 논문들을 검색하였고, 최종적으로 10개의 논문을 선정하였다. 이를 전통적 단일계층 근거 모형에 따른 질적평가를 시행하고, Comprehensive Meta Analysis 3.0 프로그램을 통해 메타분석을 시행하였다. 결과 : 선정된 10편의 논문의 질적 수준은 모두 전통적 단일계층 근거 모형의 I과 II에 해당되어 높은 편에 속했다. 이중과제 훈련을 구성하고 있는 운동과제로는 7편의 문헌에서 보행 또는 균형 과제를 선택했으며, 3편의 연구에서 상지운동 관련 과제를 선정하였다. 메타분석을 실시한 결과 일상생활활동 수행능력이 0.65, 인지기능이 0.64로 보통(medium) 효과크기로, 하지운동 기능과 상지운동 기능은 각각 0.34와 0.22로 작은(small) 효과크기를 보였다. 일상생활활동 수행능력과 인지기능의 효과크기만 통계학적으로 유의미하였다(p<0.05). 결론 : 본 연구를 통해 이중과제 훈련이 뇌졸중 환자의 일상생활활동 수행능력 및 인지기능 회복에 유용한 중재기법이 될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이는 국내 임상 환경에서 뇌졸중 환자에게 적절한 중재방법을 선정할 때 도움이 될 만한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구는 농촌지역 재가 낙상경험 노인의 낙상 두려움을 살펴보고, 그 관련요인을 확인하고자 시도하였다. 본 연구는 2010년 2월 1일부터 3월 31일까지 경상남도 하동군의 1개 면과 산청군의 1개 읍에 거주하는 노인 중 지난 1년간 낙상 경험이 있는 노인을 대상으로 일대일 면접을 통해 수집한 735명의 자료를 분석하였다. 낙상두려움간의 차이를 보인 것은 성별, 연령별, 학력, 동거 여부, 이동수단, 음주, 경제수준, 낙상횟수, 의료 이용여부, 건강식품구입여부, 보조용품구입여부, 낙상계절, 낙상장소, 낙상이유, 신발종류, 손상정도, 활동제한, 일상생활수행능력 이었다. 농촌 지역 노인의 낙상두려움의 예측요인으로서 위계적 중 다회귀분석을 실시한 결과 낙상횟수가 가장 영향력이 높았으며, 성별, 입원여부, 건강식품구입, 일상생활수행능력 등이 낙상에 대한 두려움의 관련요인으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때 낙상을 자주 경험하는 노인일수록 낙상에 대한 두려움이 증가할 수 있으므로 낙상이 빈번한 노인을 대상으로 한 자신감 강화 교육 프로그램의 개발과 일상수행능력을 향상시킬 수 있는 방안을 모색하여 보급함으로써 낙상에 대한 두려움을 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
