목적: 본 연구는 보건소에 등록된 재가 호스피스 완화돌봄 대상자의 특성과 증상을 분석하는 것이다. 방법: 부산광역시 소재 6개구 보건소에 등록된 호스피스 완화돌봄 대상자 144명의 초기 방문기록지(호스피스대상자 등록카드, 초기 통증평가지, 초기 통증 외 증상평가지)를 후향적으로 분석하였다. 결과: 대상자의 평균 연령은 67.7세이었으며, 혼자 사는 대상자가 46.2%, 교육정도는 중졸 이하가 65%였다. 종교는 불교가 36.3%로 가장 많았고, 47.5%가 의료급여 대상자였다. 진단명은 폐암, 위암, 간암의 순이었고, 기능 상태는 일상생활이 어려운 경우가 48.9%로 나타났다. 등록 당시 암 치료 중인 대상자는 39.6%이었고, 84.5%가 말기상태를 인지하고 있었다. 대상자들의 83.6%에서 통증을 호소하였으며, 그 중 36.5%에서 중간정도 이상의 통증을 호소하였다. 통증 외 증상에서 가장 많은 대상자가 호소하는 증상으로는 피로(84.7%)였으며, 피로를 호소하는 대상자의 49.3%가 중증의 증상을 호소하는 것으로 나타났다. 결론: 본 연구결과 재가 호스피스 완화돌봄 대상자들은 사회경제적 취약군으로, 중간정도 이상의 통증과 통증 외 증상을 호소하는 대상자가 많았다. 따라서 재가 호스피스 완화돌봄 대상자의 효율적인 관리를 위해서는 대상자 특성에 따른 차별화된 통합적 전략이 필요하다.

목적 : 본 연구는 강남성모병원 호스피스 병동에 입원한 환자들의 입원 시 삶의 질과 간호서비스를 받는 동안 삶의 질 변화와 호스피스 간호서비스가 말기환자의 삶의 질에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 시도하였다. 방법 : 1999년 10월부터 2000년 3월 사이에 가톨릭 대학교 강남성모병원 호스피스 병동에 입원한 환자와 가족 100명을 대상으로 연구자가 수정, 보완하여 개발한 설문지를 통해 자료를 수집하였고, 수집된 자료는 repeated measures ANOVA로 분석하였다. 결과 : 1) 간호제공자에 의해 인지된 환자의 삶의 질 평점은 입원시, 입원 1, 2, 3, 4주에 각각 3.31, 3.68, 3.56, 3.73, 3.75로 입원 당시보다 시간이 지남에 따라 유의하게 향상되었고, 입원시점에 따라 항목별로 살펴 볼 때 "신체적 청결"(F=6.50, P=0.0001) "통증조절"(F=18.01., P=0.0001) "대변상태"(F=2.96, P=0.0237) "수면상태"(F=3.99, P=0.0048) "메스꺼움/구토"(F=4.50, P=0.0022) "의료진의 편안한 돌봄"(F=3.95, P=0.0051) "가족들의 돌봄"(F=2.76, P=0.0317) "불안감"(F=3.14, P=0.0177) "마음이 편안함"(F=3.63, P=0.0085) "인간적인 대우"(F=3.32, P=0.0136) "죽음이 끝이 아니라 새로운 시작이라고 생각함"(F=2.54, P=0.0450) 등의 항목에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 2) 환자 자신에 의해 인지된 삶의 질 평점은 입원 시와 입원 1주에 각각 3.63, 3.83으로 향상되었지만 유의한 차이는 보이지 않았다. 입원시점에 따라 항목별로 살펴볼 때 "통증조절" 항목만이 유의한 변화를 보였다. 3) 사망시점으로부터 삶의 질 평점은 사망 5주전, 4주전, 3주전, 2주전, 1주전에 각각 3.48, 3.51, 3.44, 3.46, 3.50이었으며 유의한 차이는 없었다. 결론 : 본 연구의 결과 호스피스 서비스는 말기 환자의 삶의 질에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 보여졌다. 따라서 호스피스 서비스의 질 향상을 위해 호스피스 환자들을 지지해 줄 중재방안을 모색해야 하며, 특히 간호의 영적 영역에 초점을 두어야 하겠다. 또한 말기 환자의 주관적인 삶의 질 측정을 위해 도구개발이 이루어져야 하며 대상자를 확대하여 계속적인 연구가 있어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

Methods: In this descriptive research study, 154 pediatric nurses who experienced terminal care at least once were surveyed. This study used three scales, including the Palliative Care Quiz for Nursing (PCQN), Perception of Hospice-Palliative Care, and Terminal care stress. Data analyses using SPSS 22.0 included descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Mann-Whitney U test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and stepwise multiple linear regression. Results: Terminal care stress experienced by the pediatric nurses was significantly related to the perception of hospice-palliative care; the hospice-palliative care education program enhanced the knowledge and perception of hospice-palliative care. Conclusion: Hospice-palliative care education programs should be developed and provided for pediatric nurses to improve pediatric hospice-palliative care. Additionally, further research on this topic is required because the present results are inconsistent with previous and current researches.
