  • 목적: 본 연구는 말기환자의 의료적 의사결정에 대한 임상간호사의 인식 구조와 유형을 분류하고 파악하여 향후 실무현장에서 말기 의료적 의사결정 수행능력 향상과 공유된 의료적 의사결정 체계를 구축하기 위해 기초자료를 제공하기 위한 Q 방법론을 적용한 조사연구이다. 방법: 관련 문헌고찰과 개방형 질문지 그리고 개별 면담을 통해 Q 모집단을 추출하여 167개의 Q 진술문을 표집하여 내용의 중복과 표현의 명확성 등을 고려하여 수정한 후 Q 모집단을 의미와 주제별로 6개의 범주로 분류한 다음 각 범주에서 대표적이거나 상이한 의미의 Q 진술문 34항목을 선정하였다. P 표본은 대학병원에서 근무하고 있는 2년 이상의 임상간호사 37명을 편의표집방법으로 선정하였으며 34개의 진술문은 Q 카드에 인쇄하여 연구대상자들로 하여금 강제 정상분포가 되도록 각자 의견의 중요도에 따라 9점 척도 상에 Q 분류하도록 하였고, 양극단에 분류한 진술문과 관련하여 대상자와 면담을 시행하였다. 수집된 자료는 PC-QUANL Program으로 요인분석 하였다. 결과: 분류된 말기환자의 의료적 의사결정에 대한 대상자의 유형은 모두 4가지로 나타났으며 이들 유형에 의해 설명된 전체 변량은 52.7%였다. 제1유형은 '환자 참여형'으로 의료적 의사결정에 대한 환자의 자율성 보장과 이와 관련된 규율이나 법적 장치의 정비와 가이드 라인 마련에 중점을 두었다. 제2유형은 '의료인 역할중시형'으로 환자의 자율성 존중이 실현되기 위한 의료인간의 공유된 의사결정에 중점을 두었다. 제3유형은 '개방적 죽음문화형'으로 평소 죽음에 대해 환자, 가족, 의료인과의 개방적이고 솔직한 대화의 분위기 조성을 효율적인 말기 의료적 의사결정의 실천적 행위로 인식하였다. 제4유형은 '가족의사결정 참여형'으로 말기 의료적 의사결정에 가족의 현존과 역할이 갖는 의미에 강조점을 두었다. 결론: 이상의 결과를 통하여 임상에서 말기환자의 의료적 의사결정에 대한 교육프로그램을 계획하고 수행할 때에는 각 유형에서 나타난 임상간호사의 인식을 반영한 통합적이고 다 학제적인 교육내용이 반영되어야 할 것으로 본다. 본 연구는 임상간호사를 대상으로 오늘날 우리 사회에서 중요시 되고 있는 말기환자의 의료적 의사결정과 연관된 다양한 관점들을 문화적 측면에서 조명했다는 점에서 의의가 있다. 따라서 성숙하고 통합적인 말기 의료적 의사결정 교육프로그램을 위한 기초자료로 유용하게 활용될 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 제언을 하면, 첫째, 말기환자의 의료적 의사결정과 관련된 의학과 간호학 분야의 통합적이고 다 학문적인 공통교육과정 개발을 제언한다. 둘째, 본연구를 토대로 한국인의 말기 의료적 의사결정에 대한 태도 측정도구 개발을 제언한다.

  • Today, more chronically ill and handicapped people are being cared for at home by a family member caregiver. The task of caring for a family momber may mean that the caregiver has less time and money and more work which may result in increased fatigue and symptoms of illness. This study was done to examine the well-being of family caregivers. Fifty three family caregivers were interviewed. Concepts were measured using existing tools and included : Burden(25 item 5 point scale), Social sup-port (21 item 7 point scale), Health status defined by a symptom checklist(48 item S point scale), and Well -being defined by a quality of life scale (14 item 7 point scale) and caregiving activities. Data collection was done by interview and Q-sort. Social support and well - being were positively correlated as were symptoms and burden. Symptoms and burden were negatively correlated with social support and well-being. Items on the quality of life scale had a mean score range from 3.09 to 4.96. Quality of life related to income was lowest (3.09) but the desire to use more money for the patient was rated 2.90 on the burden scale where the item means ranged from 0.73 to 3.55. The high mean of 3.55 was for obligation to give care and the low 0.73 was (or not feeling that this was helping the patient. Mean scores for symptoms ranged from 0.26 to 2.15 with the 2.15 being for “worry about all the things that have to be done.” Over half of the patients were dependent for help with some activities of daily living. The caregivers reported doing an average of 3.40 out of five patient care activities including bathing (77.4%), shampooing (67.9%), and washing face and hands (49.1%), and 3.74 out of seven home maintenance activities including laundry (98.1%), cooking (83.0%), and arranging bed-ding(75.5%). The caregivers reported their spouse as one of the main sources of social support, including in times of loneliness and anger The mean score for loneliness as burden was 2.15 and ranked fourth and 31 (58.5%) of the sample reported being lonely recently and not being satisfied with the support received. Similarly anger caused by the patient was given a mean score of 2.13, and anger was reported to have been present recently by 38 (71.7%) of the sample and satis-faction with the support given was low. Having someone to help deal with anger ranked twelfth out of 21 items on the social support scale and had a mean score of 3.98 (range 3.49 to 5.98). Spouses were reported as a major source of social support but the fact that 50% of the caregivers were caring for a spouse, may account for the quality of this source of social support having been affected. These caregivers faced the same problems as others at the same stage of life. but because of the situation, there was a strain on their resources, particularly financial and social. In conclusion it was found that burden is correlated negatively to quality of life and positively to symptoms, but in this sample, symptoms and bur-den were scored relatively low. Does this indicate that the caregivers accept caregiving as part of their destiny and accept the quality of their lives with burden and symptoms just being a part of caregiving\ulcorner Does the correlation between the bur-den and symptoms indicate they are a measure of the same phenomenon or that the sample was of a more mobile, less burdened group of caregivers\ulcorner Quality of life was the one variable that was significant in explaining the varience on burden. Further study is needed to validate the conclusions found in this study but they indicate a need for nurses to ap-proach these caregivers with a plan tailored to each individual situation and to give consideration to interventions directed at improving quality of life and expanding social support networks for those caring for spouses.

  • At the start of the new century, South Africa probably had the largest number of HIV-infected people of any country in the world. The only nation that comes close is India with a population of one billion people compared to South Africa's figure of 57 million. The tragedy is that this did not have to happen. South Africa was aware of the dangers posed by AIDS as early as 1985. In 1991, the national survey of women attending antenatal clinics found that only 0.8percent were infected. In 1994, when the new government took power, the figure was still comparatively low at 7.6 %. The 2004 figure which has been published is 26.5%. This article tracks the epidemic globally, in the region and in South Africa. I explain some of the basic concepts around the disease and look at what may happen with respect to numbers. The situation is bad, and the number of people falling ill, dying and leaving families will rise over next few years. This will impact on South Africa in a number of important ways. This article assesses the demographic, economic and social consequences of the epidemic. It disposes of a number of myths and present the real facts. The AIDS in South Africa is not related to individuals only. It warns that AIDS in Africa is becoming a community and systemic problem. The acuteness of the problem does not stem merely from the fact that communities are affected, or could even be wipe out by the end of this decade, but from the fact that AIDS will place incredible burdens and obligations upon medical services, health care and religious communities such as churches. The facts confront churches' mission with the important question: who is going to take care of all the patients and where? The reality is that people dying of AIDS will have to be cared for at home by relatives and friends. A further question that arises is whether our people are prepared for this. AIDS was considered to be a homo-plague and the hunt was on for a scapegoat in the light of the fatal implication of the disease. At present we are in the strategic phase where we all realize that it will be of no avail to scare people with the ominous threat of AIDS AIDS destroys the optimism of our achievement ethics. This exposure of the culture of optimism is also an exposure of the so-called 'human basic fear which accuses Christianity that their concept of sin is a damper on man's search for liberation and basic need to be freed from all Imitation. AIDS is also a test for our ecclesiastical genuineness and the sincerity of our mission sensibility. It poses the question: How unconditional is Christian love? Is there room for the AIDS sufferer in the community of believers, despite the fact he is an acknowledged homosexual? The question to put to the church is whether the community of believers is an exclusive to put to the koinonia which excludes homosexuals. They may be welcome on principle, but in actual fact are not acceptable to the church community. As South Africa enters the new century, it is clear that the epidemic is not having a measurable impact. However, the impact of AIDS is gradual, subtle and incremental. The author's proposal of what is currently most needed in South Africa is that the little things will make a difference. It's about doing lots of little things better at grassroots level, with the emphasis on doing. There are so many community, churches and NGOs initiatives worth building on and intensifying. One must not underestimate the therapeutic value of working together in small groups to overcome a problem

  • 전국의 대도시, 중소도시, 읍면지역의 주부 100명을 대상으로 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 전화면접조사를 실시하였다. 식품안전에 대하여 불안을 느끼는 사람이 55.4%, 불안을 느끼지 않는 사람이 34.6%로 식품안전성에 대해 불안을 느끼는 사람의 비율이 1.9배 높은 것으로 나타났다. 식품안전에 대한 불안감에 영향을 미치는 요인은 유아나 초등학생의 자녀여부, 학력, 채소류 구입 장소, 브랜드, 보존료나 착색료 등의 식품첨가물, 원재료의 원산지 등이었다. 불안요인 중 잔류농약은 대상자의 96.0%가, 보존료나 착색료 등 식품첨가물 95.7%, 환경호르몬 93.0%, 식중독균 등 유해 미생물 91.7%, 유전가변형식품은 90.2%가 불안을 느끼는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 실제로는 잔류농약이나 식품첨가물보다 미생물의 발생으로 인한 식품오염으로 나타날 수 있는 식중독의 경우 더욱 치명적일 수 있으므로 이러한 사실을 일반 소비자들에게 인식시킬 필요가 있다. 불안을 느끼는 식품으로, 도시락은 대상자의 93.3%가, 수입 식품은 92.7%, 패스트푸드 89.9%, 햄과 소시지 등 식육가공식품 88.7%, 외식(패스트푸드 이외의 식품) 81.6%, 통조림과 냉동식품 등 가공식품 83.5%, 컵라면 등 인스턴트식품 82.0%, 쌀 47.4%, 식용유 53.8%, 우유 및 유제품은 56.6%가 불안하다고 느꼈다. 식품의 제조(재배) 및 원료(원산지)를 제시해주는 식품표시에 대하여 신뢰하지 못하고 불안을 느끼는 대상자가 많으므로(75.2%) 표시 제도와 인증제도의 적절한 운용을 통해 식품에 관련한 충분한 정보가 소비자들에게 전달될 수 있는 대책이 강구되어야 하겠다. 신선식품(농축산물)구입시 가장 우려되며 우선적으로 고려하는 사항은 '수입산인지 국내산인지'이었으며 '유통기한', '무농약 및 유기재배 여부', '만질 때 혹은 외관상으로 느껴지는 신선함' 등이 그 다음으로 고려하는 것으로 나타났다. 가공식품 구입시에는 '보존료 및 착색료 등의 식품첨 가물'(93.6%), '유통기한'(92.4%), '원재료가 무농약$.$유기재배인지'(88.8%)에 대하여 염려된다고 응답한 비율이 높았다. 식품안전을 확보하기 위한 식품생산에서 소비단계까지 개선사항으로 '비료, 농약 살포, 수확시 관리 등 생산단계'(59.6%) 및 '물, 토양, 대기 등 자연환경'(43.6%)의 개선이 중요하다는 견해가 많았다. 위의 결과로 볼 때 식품안전성을 확보하기 위해서는 식품위생과 안전성, 식품표시에 대한 홍보와 교육이 지속적으로 이루어져 소비자들의 식품안전에 대한 인식과 신뢰도를 높여야 할 것이다. 농장단계에서 오염원을 줄이는 방안이 최종생산물의 검사에 기반을 둔 식품안전정책보다도 안전성 확보에 훨씬 유효하다는 사고방식이 보편화되고 있으므로 농산물 생산단계에 우수농산물관리 제도(good agricultural practices)를 정착시키고, 나아가 사전예방 원칙을 적용한 HACCP 시스템을 도입하여 식품(특히 축산물)의 안전성을 확보하여야 하겠다. 또 food chain 전반에 관한 이력정보의 부족과 정보의 신뢰성이 문제가 되므로 생산단계부터 가공단계, 유통단계, 그리고 판매 단계 에 이르기까지의 모든 과정을 소비자가 역으로 거슬러 올라가 확인할 수 있는 '이력정보체계 (traceability system)'를 활성화하여야 하겠다.

  • 재난(災難)은 외면적으로는 인간과 사회에 감당하기 힘든 피해를 주는 엄청난 사건이며, 내면적으로는 인간의 마음속에 있는 온갖 종류의 개인적, 집단적 콤플렉스들을 자극한다. 2014년 세월호 침몰 사고는 많은 인명이 갑자기 사망한 인재이며, 대한민국뿐 아니라 전 세계의 수많은 사람들이 큰 심리적 충격을 받았다. 저자는 이 사고의 재난정신건강지원에 직접 참여하면서, 현대 기술 문명의 발달에 대한 자만심이 무너지고 거대한 슬픔과 무력감에 빠진 사람들을 만나는 과정에서 의식적, 무의식적 반응들을 분석심리학적 관점에서 고찰하고 연구해야 할 필요성을 실감했다. 본 연구는 신화와 암각화를 중심으로 선사시대 인간의 재난에 대한 관념과 대처양식을 조사하여, 그 속에 나타난 보편적, 원초적, 원형적 인간 심성과 문화적 특수성을 찾아내고 그 의미와 지혜를 발견하여 현대의 재난대응의 문제점과 개선의 방향을 고찰하고자 한다. 세계 도처의 창세신화들은 태초에 우주적 창조의 일부로서 재난이 있었다는 것을 보여준다. 인류는 선사시대로부터 세계의 주기적 경신(更新)이라는 파괴와 창조의 양면성의 관념에서 재난을 이해하고 대처했으며, 금기의 위반이 재난을 일으킨다는 관념을 갖고 있었다. 재난은 외견상 파괴적 작용을 통해서 의식의 근본적 경신(更新)을 지향하는 '자기(Self)'의 의도로 해석할 수 있다. 재난이라는 정신적 위기 상황에서 행해진 다양한 의례는 무의식과의 소통을 통해 인간의식을 새롭게 하고, 전체 정신의 조화를 추구하는 정신적 재생의 기회가 됐다. 현대 사회는 재난대응에 있어서 외면적, 기술적, 행정적 대응에만 치중한 나머지 고통받는 인간의 심성과 내면적 대처의 중요성을 간과하고 있다. 우리는 재난의 발생을 결정할 수는 없지만, 재난의 대처방식을 결정할 수는 있다. 외면적 재난대응을 힘써 발달시킴과 동시에, 재난의 의미를 성찰하여 인간의 심성을 살피는 내면적 재난대응을 함으로써 인간은 재난을 통해 고통의 의미를 발견하고 성숙의 길로 나아갈 수 있을 것이다.

  • This study purports to examine sociodemographic characteristics and those factors associated with osteoarthritis in women experiencing the disease in order to make suggestions for the prevention and management of osteoarthritis in women. The subjects were 143 women who were diagnosed to have osteoarthritis and under follow-up care at an outpatient department of a university-affiliated hospital. The data were collected through personal interviews by using the structured questionnaire between October 6 and October 24, 1997. The degree of daily living activities was measured with 24 items, which were made based upon Katz Index, Barthel Index and Functional Status Index. Each item has 4 response categories : (1) being able to do alone with any difficulty, (2) being able to do alone with some difficulty, (3) being able to do alone with the help of a person or an instrument, (4) not being able to do at all. The data was analyzed with correlation analysis, t-test, ANOVA, and regression analysis. The results are summarized as follows : 1. As for the age of the subjects, 59.4% were between 45 and 64 years, while 28% were 65 years and above. The subjects having religion were 71.7% and 44.1% of the subjects were protestants. The educational level was low : 31.5% graduated from elementary school, while 30.1% had no formal education. Those married subjects were 72%. Fifty nine percent of the subjects evaluated their economic status as middle class. 2. Those people from whom the subjects currently receive some help were spouses in 35.8% of the subjects. Likewise, 50% of the subjects indicated spouse as the people from whom they want to receive help. 3. The score of the ability of daily living activities ranged between 48 and 96, with the mean of 78.94. Those means of physical activity, ADL(activities of daily living) and IADL(instrumental activities of daily living) were 14.89, 13.97 and 50.09, respectively. Except for the items of carrying heavy stuff and of washing clothes in the sitting position the subjects showed independence in more than 90% of the items, where Independence is defined as being able to do alone or with the help of a person or an instrument. 4. The increase in age was a significant predictor of the decrease in the ability of daily living activities. Those graduated from middle school and above showed a significantly higher degree in the ability of daily living activities than those with less educational level. The married women revealed significantly higher scores in physical activity, ADL, and IADL than the unmarried ones. The ability of daily living activities was not significantly related to having religion, economic status and living with family. 5. The average duration of experiencing osteoarthritis was 4 years and 7 months. Regarding the site of the onset, 65% of the subjects indicated knees. The women with osteoarthritis for less than 3 years were 65%. The ability of daily living activities was significantly different by the duration of illness : the longer the duration of illness, the less the ability of activities. The above findings suggest the need for developing those programs for prevention disabilities in performing daily living activities and for managing diseases targeting the women of middle and old age, with low educational level, and with unmarried status. In addition, there should be developed an instrument for measuring the ability of daily living activities which reflects daily lives of Korean women with osteoarthritis in order to examine comprehensive effects of osteoarthritis on women's daily lives in this country.

  • Objective : The purpose of this study is to identify actual operations and issues of wireless paging system operation for the aged living alone as the end users of wireless paging system primarily in Gwangyang city, and thereby to explore possible advanced and integrated ways to promote social safety network for the aged. Methods : The survey tool used in this study was a structured questionnaire form consisting of question items. The researcher hereof conducted this survey by means of direct visit and interview during two seasons, i.e. from February to August, 2008 and from December 2008 to March 2009, respectively. Results : 1) For general demographic characteristics, it was found that 90.9% of all respondents were women and 61.2% of all respondents were at age 75 to 84. for health conditions, it was found that more than 90% of all respondents often took medicines due to their unhealthy body, and most of respondents suffered from musculoskeletal diseases 79.3% and circulatory diseases 61.6%. for walking capacity, it was found that 45.5% of all respondents used walking aids, and disable respondents (11.5% of all respondents) were represented primarily by those with physical disability (52.6% of disable respondents). for actual use of medical institutions, it was found 47.3% of all respondents relied on local clinics, since they preferred neighborhood hospitals or clinics they can trust for medical care. for social activities and supports, it was found that 43.6% respondents had 'needs for assistance at times' and 33.9% respondents have 'no need for assistance'. And it was found that the major difficulties in living alone at old age were represented primarily by health problems 37.8% and economic difficulties 33.5%. 2) For characteristics related to wireless paging system, it was found that 90.3% respondents used wireless paging system recommended by firemen, and 28.5% respondents used this system. and it was found that 59.6% respondents used this system once, and 85.2% respondents used it because of acute or chronic diseases. more than 90% respondents thought that they knew about wireless paging system and considered themselves safe, but 83.6% respondents didn't attach a remote control on their upper clothes, and even 49.1% respondents turned off the power of wireless paging system due to their concern about electricity bill and noise. 3) It was found that 83.6% respondents felt it necessary to use wireless paging system, and wireless paging users felt more satisfied with using the system than non-users, and 50.7% showed high satisfaction at certain psychological benefits like 'confidence in coping with critical situations' and 'a sense of relief'. In addition, it was found that some respondents who answered that 'they didn't turn off the paging system as they knew how it works' and those who answered that they knew 'how to use it' showed relatively high satisfaction. And some respondents who kept it well and felt it necessary also showed high satisfaction. 4) It was found that the level of satisfaction our respondents felt with using wireless paging system varied significantly availability($x^{2}$ = 12.759, p = .002), psychological advantages($x^{2}$ = 12.174, p = .002), knowledge about how to use system($x^{2}$ = 7.021, p = .016), power on/off($x^{2}$ = 13.221, p = .001), level of knowledge about system($x^{2}$ = 21.002, p = .000), maintenance($x^{2}$ = 9.871, p = .007) and level of necessity($x^{2}$ = 34.939, p = .000) on the statistical basis.

  • 본 연구는 치과위생사 의료인화에 대한 요구와 논의가 있는 현 시대적 상황에서 치과의료인력을 대상으로 치과위생사를 위한 선행과제와 의료인이 되었을 때의 긍정적 부정적 효과, 확장 가능한 전문업무에 대해 파악하고자 하였다. 치과위생사 259명, 치과의사 128명을 대상으로 치과위생사 의료인화에 대한 인식과 선행 과제, 긍정 및 부정적 효과와 확장 가능한 전문업무 등에 대해 조사 분석하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 치과위생사 의료인화에 대해 치과위생사의 94.2%, 치과의사의 46.9%가 인지하였고, 치과위생사는 협회매체(52.5%), 치과의사는 치과신문(23.4%)을 통해 인지하는 경우가 많았다. 찬성도는 치과위생사의 95.0%, 치과의사의 64.1%였으며, 당위성은 치과위생사가 84.9%, 치과의사 51.6%였다. 당위성의 근거로 치과위생사는 업무 전문성과 교육과정 부합성이 높았고 업무 부합성이 낮았으나 치과의사는 의료체계 유사성이 높았고 교육과정 부합성이 가장 낮았다. 의료인화를 위한 선행 과제 중 직업적 영역에서 치과위생사와 치과의사 모두 직업의식과 윤리의식이 높았다. 제도적 영역에서도 두 직종 모두 치위생교육 질 관리가 가장 높았으며, 학제 일원화가 가장 낮았다. 사회적 영역에서 치과위생사는 중앙정부설득과 국민공감대 형성이 높았고, 치과의사는 유관단체 협력과 중앙정부 설득이 높았다. 치과위생사 의료인화 시 긍정적 효과는 치과위생사 인식 확장이 치과위생사와 치과의사 모두 가장 높았고, 부정적 효과는 치과위생사의 경우 임금상승 심화와 위임진료 증가가 높았고, 치과의사는 임금상승 심화와 구인난 심화가 높았다. 의료인화 시 확장 가능한 전문업무로는 독자적 치주관리프로그램 운영으로 치과위생사(79.9%)와 치과의사(69.6%) 모두에게 가장 높게 나타났다. 치과위생사는 치주관리를 위한 진단(44.4%)과 전신질환자 구강건강관리(44.0%), 비외과적 치주처치(41.3%), 근육 정맥주사(27.4%) 순이었고, 치과의사는 근육 정맥주사(44.1%), 비외과적 치주처치(34.3%), 전신질환자 구강건강관리(29.4%), 치주관리를 위한 진단(13.7%) 순이었다. 이상의 결과를 통해 치과위생사 의료인화가 가지는 의미에 대한 충분한 검토와 논의가 필요할 것으로 생각되고, 의료인화와 관련하여 치과위생사의 업무가 합리적으로 조정되고 합법화하는 데 본 연구가 활용되기를 기대한다.
