경부 통증은 청소년과 성인에서 흔히 경험된다. 경부장애지수는 경부통의 상태를 평가하기 위하여 가장 흔히 사용되는 자가보고 방식이다. 이 연구의 목적은 일부 대학생의 경부장애지수에 대한 분포를 조사하는 것이다. 자료는 대학생(남성: 229, 여성: 405)을 위한 NDI 설문지로 수집되었다. 통계학적 분석은 SPSS 12. 0으로 이루어졌고, 기술통계, 독립표본 t-test와 피어슨 상관분석을 사용하였다. 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 경부장애의 정도를 나타내는 두 번째 선택 안에서 높은 항목은 '두통'으로 나타났고, 세 번째 선택 안에서 높은 항목은 통증정도로 나타났다. 둘째, 여성이 남성보다 더 높은 경부장애지수, 백분율, 경부장애등급을 나타냈다(p<0.05). 셋째, 남성은 '장애 없음'이 63.8%, '경도 장애'가 35.4%, '중등도 장애'가 0.9%로 나타났고, 여성은 '장애 없음'이 53.6%, '경도 장애'가 44.7%, '중등도 장애'가 1.5%, '중증 장애'가 0.2%로 나타났다. 마지막으로 경부장애지수등급은 경부장애지수 항목과 상관성이 있는 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 본 연구의 결과들은 장래의 임상적, 역학적 연구 자료에 기초를 제공할 수 있을 것이며, 경부장애의 예방과 관리에 대한 적절한 교육과 대책이 필요함을 나타낸다.

This study investigated the prevalence of unmet needs for health care among Korean adults and related factors. Using data from the 2012 Korea Health Panel, 1,896 adults aged 65 and over and two age groups(Young-Old(66-74) and Old-Old($65{\leq}$)) were analyzed to identify these factors. Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the main factors associated with unmet medical needs. According to the results of this study, the factors influencing unmet medical needs with regard to economic factors were Subjective Health Status(young-old), Disability(young-old), Activity Limitation(young-old), Education Level(old) and Economic Activity(old). The factors influencing unmet medical needs were factors of attitude, information, and disease. factors were Disability(young-old), Activity Limitation(young-old), Education Level(old) and Economic Activity(old).

Background: The Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) approach is recognized in the field of health promotion as a way to optimize intervention for promoting health by taking into account specific social, economical, and institutional situations of the community. However, the CBPR approach has not been applied in the field of community-based rehabilitation. Objects: This study was conducted to explore the self-perceived satisfaction of therapists and disabilities on the Short-term Intensive Home-based Rehabilitation (SIHR) program developed using the CBPR approach as well as determine the points that need improvement. Methods: This research was conducted through in-depth interviews. The SIHR program was developed, applied, and evaluated by both the researchers and four therapists on the basis of the CBPR approach. The SIHR program was administered to four disability for 1 hour a day, 2 or 3 times a week, for 8 weeks, and their self-rehabilitation was monitored once a week for 4 weeks. After all intervention periods, in-depth interviews were conducted by using a semi-structured questionnaire for the therapists and disability. Results: The therapists were satisfied with the contents of the SIHR program, such as behavioral change technique and goal-directed training. They were also satisfied with the process of developing the program through a community network. Disabilities were satisfied with the therapists' persuasive and emotionally interactive way of delivering the SIHR program as well as the individually customized rehabilitation training and physical improvement. The short period (8 weeks) of the SIHR program was noted by both therapists and disabilities as the part that needs improvement. Conclusion: The SIHR program developed using the CBPR approach was feasible and satisfying to therapists and disabilities. However, a longer SIHR program should be developed. Community networks could help therapists effectively utilize community resources and thereby provide more rehabilitation program for persons with disability.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of low back pain relieving program on back muscle strength, intensity of pain, low back disability level in elementary school teachers who have low back pain. subjects were elementary school women teachers who worked at eight elementary school located in Seoul. Intended subjects size were seventy consist of thirty-four experimental group(three schools) and thirty-six control group(five schools), but actual subjects size was forty-four. Among the forty-four patients subjects, twenty-three were experimental group receiving health education about right postures, etiologies of low back pain, diagnosis of low back pain and exercise program composed of muscle strengthening exercise, stretching exercises and twenty-one were control group. During the 8 weeks program, the subjects were received two times education and six times group exercise practices in 1st week and three times per week group exercise practices, two times education in other 7 weeks. This study as carried out from April 1, 1999 to June 30, 1999. Back muscle strength was measured by back muscle strength measuring machine and the intensity of pain were measured by the Visual Analogue Scale(VAS), and level of disability was measured by Oswestry low back pain disability scale. Study measurements were taken before and after 8 week exercise program. Data were analyzed using paired t-test, and ANCOVA. The results were summarized as follows. 1. After low back relieving program, back muscle strength was increased significantly(p=0.000) and there was significant difference in back muscle strength change between experimental group and control group(p=0.002). 2. After low back pain relieving program, pain on anterior bending, pain on posterior bending were decreased significantly than measurements before the program(p=0.000 p=0.000) and there was significant difference in pain on anterior bending and posterior bending change between experimental group and control group(p=0.000, p=0.000). 3. After low back pain relieving program, Oswestry disability scale scores were decreased significantly(p=0.000, p=0.000) but there was no significant difference in Oswestry disability score change between experimental group and control group.

본 연구는 장기간 노인(전문)병원 및 요양시설에서 생활하고 있는 뇌졸중 생존 노인들의 건강관련 삶의 질에 미치는 요인들이 무엇인지 규명함으로써 대상자들의 삶의 질 증진을 위한 사회복지 실천 방안들을 제언하고자 시행되었다. 연구 대상자는 충청지역 및 D 광역시 소재 노인(전문)병원 18곳과 요양시설 13곳에서 장기 입원(입소)하고 있는 55세 이상의 뇌졸중 생존 노인들이며 서베이 방법을 사용하여 직접면담조사를 실시하였다. 조사는 2008년 12월 16일부터 2009년 1월 17일까지 실시되었고, 총 328부의 설문지가 통계분석에 이용되었다. 연구결과 대상자들이 인지하고 있는 건강관련 삶의 질은 비교적 낮게 나타났고, 특히 건강관련 삶의 질을 구성하고 있는 하위 영역 중 사회적 관계 영역이 가장 낮게 나타났다. 투입된 독립변수들이 건강관련 삶의 질에 미치는 상대적 영향력은 '우울', '향후 경제적 부담감', '일상생활수행능력', '장애수용', '중복질환', '경제적 주부양자가 배우자인 경우'순으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 장기재활 및 요양서비스를 이용하고 있는 뇌졸중 생존 노인들의 건강관련 삶의 질에 질병관련 요인뿐만 아니라 심리사회적 요인, 환경적 요인 모두 중요한 영향을 미치고 있다는 것이 규명되었고, 그 가운데서도 심리사회적 요인의 영향력이 제일 큰 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이를 바탕으로 노인의료복지시설에서 생활하고 있는 뇌졸중 생존 노인들의 삶의 질을 향상시키고 더 나아가 사회복지사들의 역량을 고취시킬 수 있는 사회복지 방안들이 논의되었다.
