Methods: Medical records of 102 patients diagnosed with depressive disorder who were treated with Korean medical treatment (herbal-medication, acupuncture, Korean psychotherapy) for at least 12 weeks and measured psychological scales (Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI)) every 4 weeks were analyzed. Results: After 12 weeks of treatment, BDI-II, STAI-X-1/2, BAI, and STAXI-S/T all decreased statistically significantly. STAI-X-1 and BAI were significantly decreased throughout the treatment interval (comparisons every 4 weeks). The other four scales decreased significantly from 0 to 4 weeks and from 8 to 12 weeks. Conclusions: Treatment for depressive disorder with Korean Medicine was effective not only in improving overall symptoms of depressed patients, but also in improving accompanying anxiety, anger, and physical symptoms.

The questionnaire was carried out before and after oral examination and dental prosthetic treatment from July to December, 2013. The study instruments included Beck's anxiety inventory and self-rating depression scale by Zung. The questionnaire was adapted and modified from Kwon's anxiety inventory and Lee's depression scale. Results: While the anxiety level increased from 69.4% to 78.2% in the normal people, the depression level changed from 53.2% to 64.1% in the normal people. The gender variable had a positive effect on anxiety and depression while educational level had a negative effect on them. The dental fear was closely related to anxiety and depression before and after the prosthetic treatment. The entire body health perception showed a negative effect on anxiety and depression. The distrust towards the dentist had an influence on the anxiety and depression in the prosthetic patients.

연구목적: 본 연구는 혈액투석요법을 받는 말기신부전 환자들과 우울 또는 불안장애 환자의 삶의 질을 비교하고 삶의 질에 영향을 주는 정신의학적 요인을 조사하여 향후 환자 치료에 활용하고자 하였다. 방 법: 신장내과에서 혈액투석을 받고 있는 말기신부전 환자 33명과 정신과 외래에서 치료를 받고 있는 우울 또는 불안장애 환자 34명을 대상으로 심리평가도구를 실시하였다. 연구도구는 인구통계학적 자료를 포함한 설문지와 WHO에서 고안한 한국판 삶의 질 척도의 간편형(K-WHOQOL-BREF), 우울증 자가평가 척도인 Beck Depression Inventory(BDI), 불안 자가평가 척도인 State-Trait Anxiety Inventory(STAI)를 이용하였다. 결 과: 혈액투석 환자군은 우울 또는 불안장애 환자군과 전체 삶의 질의 평균점수에서는 차이가 없었으나, 혈액투석 환자군이 우울 또는 불안장애 환자들에 비해서 삶의 질 척도 중 심리건강 항목에서 삶의 질이 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 불안수준은 혈액투석 환자군이 우울 또는 불안장애 환자군에 비해서 더 낮았다. 반면에 우울수준은 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결 론: 혈액투석 환자군이 우울 또는 불안장애 환자군에 비해 삶의 질 중에서 특히 심리건강 항목과 불안수준에서 더 나은 결과를 보였다. 그러나 혈액투석 환자군이 전반적인 삶의 질과 우울수준에서 우울 또는 불안장애 환자군과 유사한 결과를 보였으며 일반인구의 우울과 불안의 유병율보다 높은 비율의 우울과 불안을 보였다. 이는 혈액투석 환자군을 대상으로 정신의학적 문제에 대한 적극적인 정신과적 개입이 필요함을 시사해준다.
