본 연구는 성인당뇨병 환자들을 대상으로 의료급여수급여부에 따라 건강수준 및 질병관리 장애요인에 차이가 나타나는지를 분석하고 질병관리 장애요인이 건강수준에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 자료수집은 서울의 종합병원 당뇨병클리닉 및 지역사회 복지기관에서 편의표집한 55세이상 성인당뇨병 환자 144명을 대상으로 조사를 실시하였다. 분석결과, 의료급여환자가 건강보험환자에 비하여 건강수준이 더 나쁘다고 인식하고 있었으며, 질병관리 장애요인을 더 많이 경험하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 건강보험환자와 의료급여환자간 건강수준의 차이는 인구학적 요인 및 질병관련 특성들을 통제한 이후에도 유의하였다.

The influence of nutrition during early life on physical growth as well as mental development has been thoroughly discussed in the literature. The physical dimensions of the body are greatly influenced by nutrition, particularly during the period of rapid growth in early childhood. Nutritional status affects every pediatric patient's response toillness. Good nutrition is important for achieving normal growth and development. It is indicated that permanent impairment of the central nervous system may result from dietary restriction of imbalance during certain periods of life. If children under 3 years of age show a good nutritional status, it may be assumed that they are well nourished. Several common diseases of children such as iron deficiency, chronic constipation and atopic dermatitis are known food related diseases. Patients with chronic illness and those at risk of malnutrition should have detailed nutritional assessments done. Components of a complete nutritional assessment include a medical history, nutritional history including dietary intake, physical examination, anthropometrics (weight, length or stature, head circumference, midarm circumference, and triceps skinfold thickness), pubertal staging, skeletal maturity staging, and biochemical tests of nutritional status. The use of age, gender, and disease-specific growth charts is essential in assessing nutritional status and monitoring nutrition interventions. Nutrition assessment and dietary counseling is helpful for the cure of disease, and moreover, the prevention of illness.

The purpose of this study was to explore and describe the experience of caregivers with mentally ill children. The sample consists of 4 participants who care for their children with mentally ill. They were asked open-ended questions in order for them to talk about their experiences. With permission of the subjects, the interviews were recorded and transcribed. The methodology utilized was the Colaizzi's phonomenological approach. The interview data was organized by themes into 5 categories anguish, positive emtion, maturation, acceptance of the disease, and seeking information. These 5 themes were further categorized into 4 main groups : emotional impact, spiritual maturation, adapting to the illness, and seeking support needs. The results of this study have clinical and theoretical implications not only for psychiatric nursing in Korea but also for all clinicians working with the families of the mentally ill.

본 연구는 지역사회에 거주하는 만성질환을 가진 노인을 대상으로 하여 자기관리 프로그램의 효과 및 사용하는 측정도구가 무엇인지 확인하는데에 목적을 두고 있다. 문헌검색을 위해 사용된 데이터베이스는 Google Scholar, RISS, Dbpia였으며, PICO 기준틀을 기반으로 연구질문을 선정하였다. 2010년 1월부터 2019년 9월까지 발표된 문헌을 검색하여 포함기준과 배재기준을 적용하여 최종 6편의 문헌을 선정하였다. 연구결과, 선정된 문헌은 Level 1-2의 질적수준을 가지고 있었다. 프로그램의 일반적 특성에서는 간호사가 가장 많이 프로그램을 진행 하였으며, 프로그램은 노인 50명 이하를 대상으로 운영되었다. 또한, 주로 보건소와 노인정, 경로당에서 프로그램이 진행되었다. 연구대상자는 고혈압을 가진 만성질환자를 대상으로한 문헌이 가장 많았으며, 프로그램의 종속변수는 모든 문헌에서 인지적 영역을 다루었고, 그 뒤로 신체적 영역을 종속변수로 측정한 문헌이 많았다. 본 연구결과는 지역사회에 거주하는 만성질환을 가진 노인에게 자기관리에 대한 중재의 효과성을 제공하고, 지역사회에 만성질환을 대상으로 하는 프로그램 개발에 대한 필요성을 강조한다. 또한, 노인의 다양한 인지적, 신체적, 정신적, 사회적, 삶의 질의 영역에 관련된 측정도구를 제시하며 다학제간 연구의 필요성을 제시힌다.

Objectives: The suicide rate in Korea is increasing every year, and is the highest among the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development countries. Psychiatric patients in particular have a higher risk of suicide than other patients. This study was performed to evaluate determinants of mental health care utilization among individuals at high risk for suicide. Methods: Korea Health Panel data from 2009 to 2011 were used. Subjects were individuals at high risk of suicide who had suicidal ideation, a past history of psychiatric illness, or had utilized outpatient services for a psychiatric disorder associated with suicidal ideation within the past year. The chi-square test and hierarchical logistic regression were used to identify significant determinants of mental health care utilization. Results: The total number of subjects with complete data on the variables in our model was 989. Individuals suffering from three or more chronic diseases used mental health care more frequently. Mental health care utilization was higher in subjects who had middle or high levels of educational attainment, were receiving Medical Aid, or had a large family size. Conclusions: It is important to control risk factors in high-risk groups as part of suicide prevention strategies. The clinical approach, which includes community-based intervention, entails the management of reduction of suicidal risk. Our study identified demographic characteristics that have a significant impact on mental health care utilization and should be considered in the development of suicide prevention strategies. Further studies should examine the effect of mental health care utilization on reducing suicidal ideation.

The effects and roles of social support and stressors (stressful life events and chronic strains) on psychosocial distress were examined in a model with data from a sample of the white-collar workers (N=416) in Korea. The findings of this study present that mean levels of psychosocial distress were higher in the female, youth, unmarried and divorced, and low economic status (monthly income). The analysis also shows that, as expected, stressful life and chronic strains as stressors are positively related to occurrence of psychosocial distress, and social support is negatively related to psychosocial distress. Further, the contribution of social support to predicting psychosocial distress is greater in magnitude than that of stressful events, chronic strains, and seciodemographic variables. There is no evidence that social support buffers the impacts of stressors on psychosocial distress, rather social support takes a role of mai or direct effects on psychosocial distress. Therefore, the strength of the social support is an important and meaningful strategy to prevent from stress and mental, physical illness.

만성 피로증후군은 인지능력 감소, 근골격 및 수면 장애증상을 가지며 심한 피로감을 특징으로 하는 증상군을 말한다. 아직 명확한 진단기법이나 확립된 표식자가 없으며, 타질환을 배제한 후 증상기준에 따라 진단하고 있다. 병태생리도 명확한 인과관계가 증명되지 않고 있으며 치료 역시 환자의 증상개선과 삶의 질 향상을 목표로 여러 방법을 동원하고 있는 실정이다. 그러나 대조군과 비교한 많은 연구들에서 중추신경계, 신경호르몬 조절 시스템 및 만성 면역 활성 등의 이상이 보고되고 있으며, 이러한 결과들을 근거로 현재 다양한 치료방법이 동원되고 있다. 또한 이 증후군은 가족력의 가능성이 크므로 향후 유전 및 환경적 요인에 관한 연구가 활발해질 것으로 보인다. 대부분의 환자들은 우울증이나 범불안 장애 등을 동반하고 있으며, 이들이 병태생리와 관련 있을 가능성도 크다고 볼 수 있다. 결론적으로 이 증후군은 개인의 유전적 요소에 생리학적, 정신적 요인과 더불어 영양, 생활습관, 스트레스, 호르몬 등의 다양한 요인들이 복합적으로 상호 작용하여 만성적인 피로감과 다양한 증상을 나타내는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 환자-의사간 긴밀한 관계를 바탕으로 약물 및 비약물요법과 인지요법, 단계적 운동요법 등 효과가 인정된 치료방법을 꾸준히 사용하면 증상개선과 삶의 질 향상에 도움이 될 것으로 생각한다.

The purpose of this study was to observe the health status of the elderly, and to investigate the correlation between their health status and quality of life. Data from the years 2010 and 2011 were used which are from the fifth edition of the 'Survey of the Korean National Health and Nutrition'. According to multiple regression analysis, perceived health status, chronic illness, stress, depression, and suicidal thoughts were important factors in quality of life. Above all, the most important factor was perceived health status (its explanatory power was 36.5%). In conclusion, perceived health status has strong effects on the quality of life in the elderly, and it is necessary to provide more extensive welfare projects to improve the quality of life in Korean elderly.
