본 연구는 낮병원 프로그램을 받은 뇌졸중 환자들의 일반적인 특성과 삶의 만족도 중 어떤 항목이 도구적 일상생활활동과 삶의 만족도에 가장 영향력을 미치는지 인과 관계 분석을 하였다. 국립재활병원에 입원한 환자 중 실험군 41명과 대조군 41명을 선정하여 도구적 일상생활활동수행능력을 평가하고 삶의 만족도 검사를 실시하였다. 연구 결과 실험군과 대조군의 도구적 일상생활활동수행능력 비교에서 실험군이 대조군 보다 높은 기능을 보였으며, 삶의 만족도 비교에서도 모든 항목에 대해 실험군이 대조군보다 높게 나타났다. K-ADL과 K-IADL 및 삶의 만족도에 일반적인 특성 항목 중 어떤 항목이 영향을 주는지 알아 본 결과 K-ADL과 K-IADL 모두 연령, 경제상태 순으로 나타났으며, 삶의 만족도에서는 경제상태, 학력, 혼인상태, 직업유무, 일상생활시 조력자 유무 순으로 나타났다. K-ADL과 K-IADL에 삶의 만족도 항목 중 어떤 항목이 영향을 주는지 알아 본 결과 K-ADL은 통증, 사회기능, 정신건강, 신체적 역할 순으로 나타났으며 K-IADL에서는 신체적 역할제한이 가장 설명력이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구를 통해 뇌졸중 장애인들이 병원에서 재활치료가 끝난 이후에 신체적 기능을 유지하고 이차 장애를 예방하며 사회통합과 삶의 만족도 향상을 도모하기 위해서 지속적인 재활치료가 강조되어야함을 알 수 있었다.

The ratio of the elderly population is rapidly growing due to socio-economic development and better medical services. As the average life-span of the Korean elderly becomes longer, the proportion of the elderly is increasing. Therefore, the elderly need to sustain a high quality of life. However, all these factors, such as sensory loss, decreased endurance, mobility limitation, and a loss of independence, act to diminish the quality of life among the elderly. It is necessary for elders to adapt themselves to aging, to maintain their physical functions and especially, it is important to keep their independence in activity of daily living and self care.

The correlated factors of ADL were cognitive function, long-term care grade, disability of arm and leg, bed sore and tube feeding. This study suggests that cognitive functions have to be mainly considered in long-term care grade. It is necessary to make an effort to develop long-term care grade in Korean long-term care insurance system an cognitive function improvement program for the beneficiary older adults. Above all things government will be seriously contemplating of revise contents for long-term care grade to provide quality of care for the older adults.

본 연구에서는 집이나 사무실과 같은 일상 공간에서 발생할 수 있는 연간의 일상생활행위 (ADL: Activities of Daily Living) 들을 인지하는 분산 모델을 제시한다. 사용자의 환경 정보, 위치 정보 및 행위 정보를 간단한 센서들이 부착된 가정용 기기들과 가구, 식기들을 통해 무선 센서 네트워크를 통해 수집하며 분석한다. 하지만 이와 같은 다양한 기기의 활용과 충분히 분석되어지지 않은 데이터들은 본 논문에서 제시하는 일상 환경에서 고차원의 ADL 모델을 구축하기 어렵게 한다. 그러나 ADL들이 생성하는 센서 데이터들과 센서 데이터들의 순서들은 어떤 행위가, 이루어지고 있는지 인지할 수 있도록 도와준다. 따라서 이 센서 데이터들의 순서를 특정 행위 패턴을 분석하는 데 활용하고, 이를 통해 분산 선형 시간 추론 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이 알고리즘은 센서 네트워크와 같은 소규모 시스템에서 행위를 인지하는 데 적절하다.
