  • Objective: The visually impaired have limited access to health care services and related information, and thus, they can have serious hurdles against properly taking medications. Despite that it is important to improve self-care ability of the visually impaired for correct medication use, there have been few studies investigating their needs for health care services in Korea, particularly focusing on proper medication usage. This study is to explore safety-related issues regarding mediation usage among the visually impaired based on in-depth interview. We particularly focus on any obstacles for safe use of medicines including experience on medication-related adverse effects in order to provide preliminary evidence for policy measures to improve proper medication use among the visually impaired. Methods: Study sample was visually impaired individuals who resided in Seoul area and were registered in the National Association of Visually Impaired. The association helped the process of recruiting the study participants. In-depth interview for each study participants was conducted. Each interview was recorded and later converted into a written script to extract core contents for the analysis. Results: The study participants comprised of three women (42.9%) and four men (57.1%). One was in his 20's, and there were four participants in 30's and two in 40's. Fully impaired participants were majority (5 out of 7). Limitation to physical access to health care providers and health information were the key factors to hamper safe medication utilization among the study participants. Difficulty reading medication information and may take the wrong medication or incorrect doses of medication, resulting in serious consequences, including overdose or inadequate treatment of health problems. Visually impaired patients report increased anxiety related to medication management and must rely on others to obtain necessary drug information. Pharmacists have a unique opportunity to pursue accurate medication adherence in this special population. This article reviews literature illustrating how severe medication mismanagement can occur in the visually impaired elderly and presents resources and solutions for pharmacists to take a larger role in adherence management in this population. Conclusion: The visually impaired had difficulties reading medication information and identifying medicines, and took incorrect doses of medications. Public support for safe medication use and medication management among the visually impaired is necessary.

  • 연구목적 본 연구는 치매 군과 비치매 군의 통증 역치 및 통증 경험의 특성을 비교 하고자 한다. 방 법 2010년 강원 조기치매 검진사업의 일환으로 시행된 것으로, 연구 대상은 지역사회 거주중인 65세 이상 노인 8,302명이었다. 이 중, 한국판 간이정신상태검사(MMSE-KC) 점수가 저하 된 1259명을 선별했고, 이중 365명이 한국형 치매 진단평가 도구(CERAD-K)를 이용한 정밀검진을 받았다. 검사 결과 및 전문의의 판단 하에 정상, 경도인지장애, 치매 군으로 진단 후, 최종 비치매 군 90명, 치매 군 57명이(경도-중등도 알츠하이머형 치매) 분석되었다. 압통각계(Pressure algometer)를 이용하여 실험적으로 통증 역치를 측정했고, 자가보고식 검사인 Brief pain inventory(BPI)를 이용하여 통증 경험(통증 심도, 통증 방해도)을 조사했다. 집단 간 차이 분석은 Pearson Chi-Square와, 혼란변인(성별, 나이, 교육수준, GDS, 당뇨)을 보정한 ANCOVA검정을 시행했다. 결 과 인구학적 특성상 치매 환자 군에서 여성이 많고, 연령이 높고, 교육 연수가 낮았다. 통증 역치는 두 군에서 통계적으로 의미 있는 차이가 발견되지 않았다. BPI결과에서 비치매 군이 어깨 통증, 전체 통증 개수, '통상적 일'의 통증으로 인한 방해를 의미 있게 더 많이 호소했다(p<0.05). 그러나 두 군에서 통증 유병률 및 치료는 차이가 없었다. 결 론 치매 군은 비치매 군보다 통증을 더 적게 경험했다. 이는 치매 환자의 통증 역치는 보존되었으나, 내성이 증가한다는 선행 연구를 뒷받침 하는 증거로 여겨진다. 따라서, 치매 환자를 위한 적극적인 통증 사정 및 치료를 제안한다.

  • The Recommended Dietary Allowances(RDAs, Nutrient standards), dietary guidelines, and food guides, each define aspects for a healthy diet in different ways. The RDA and food guide for Koreans were first established in 1962 by the Food and Nutrition Committee of the Korea FAO Association. The committee released the RDA and suggested ways to intake the recommended nutrients. Every five years, the committee has added more data and released revisions. The latest edition of the RDA is the 6th revision. In the beginning, the concept of basic food groups was emphasized as basic data for planning means based on RDA. In the 5th revision, the basic food groups and dietary guideline for public health from the Ministry of Health and Welfairs(December, 1990) suggests that, 1) Eat a variety of foods with a recommended fat intake equaling or less than 20% of total calories ; 2) Maintain ideal body weight and prevent obesity ; 3) Eat foods low in salt. Salt intake should not exceed 10g ; 4) Do not drink too much ; 5) Eat regularly and enjoy meals. After these guidelines were established, the first nutritonal education efforts guidelines were developed in 1984. Despite broad possibilities for application, they had limited use, mainly as a nutritional assessment and food balance sheet preparation. They were not well utilized in public nutritional education and nutritonal policy through the media because of the weakness of the government's food and nutriton policy. Also a lack of administrative support and dietitians in the health department and administrative organizations was partly to blame. In regard to public health and nutrition status, life expectancy has increased 10 years since the 70's and the elderly population increased threefold in 1995 compared to 1960. The common causes of death in 1996 by 19 Chapters classification, were first disease of the circulatory system ; the second, neoplasms ; the third, external causes fo mortality ; the forth, diseases of the digestive system ; and the fifth, respiratory system diseases, In food intake, grain and complex starch intake has decreased while fruit and animal foods have considerably increased. Therefore, energy from carbohydrates has decreased while energy from protein and fat has increased. Energy intakes from protein, fat and carbohydrates were respectively 12.5, 7.2 and 80.3% in 1969 but 16.1, 19.1 and 64.8% in 1995. 62.9% of the householes had the fat energy less than 20%, while 37.1% had the fat energy above 20%. The only intakes of vitamin A and calcium were below RDA levles. Therefore, nationwide attention should be focused on public nutriton education and public activities with supplementation of the RDAs, according to the food guide and the dietary guideline.

  • 경제가 발전함에 따라 의료서비스의 수요도 높아지면서 한방의료 이용도 해마다 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 특히 65세 이상 노인일수록 양방보다는 한방을 선호하는 추세이며, 고령화 사회에 접어든 우리나라의 경우 한방 의료서비스의 중요성이 더욱 높아지고 있다. 이런 측면에서 지방중소도시 중 진주시를 대상으로 한의원의 밀도분석과 접근성을 분석함으로서 의료서비스의 질을 평가하였다. 그 결과 진주시 전체 의료시설 중 한의원은 27%를 차지하고 있고 주로 중심상업지역에 밀집되어 있어서 동별 한의원서비스 질에 불균형이 존재하였다. 특히 65세 이상 노인 인구의 한의원 접근성분석에서 진주시 전체 동 중 50%이상이 의료사각지역이 발생되어 매우 취약한 상태를 보여주었다. 따라서 고령화가 급속도로 진행되는 우리나라의 인구특성을 고려해 볼 때 지방 중소도시의 한방 의료 서비스 지원에 대한 체계적인 개선대책이 마련되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

  • The purpose of this study was to provide the valid data about residential-linked pension insurance development. The development was a part of national housing projects, which was an incentive for rural living of retired people, in order to relieve residential issues of elderly and revitalize rural communities by residents moving from cities. The insuring intent, decisive insuring factors and the residential service demand degree of people preparing retirement were analyzed. Data was collected in October, 2007. 364 Sample Subjects lived in Seoul Metropolitan area. Firstly, more than 90% of respondents had intention to purchase a residential-linked pension insurance and about 50% of them necessarily desired receiving premium for moving in. This indicated that it could be developed as an insurance which helped to meet housing expenses by housing-linked system, and in the mean time, it met the original purpose of pension insurance as the pension benefit could be guaranteed for all the insurance subscribers. Secondly, the respondents, whose income and private assets were higher, were able to pay more for insurance compared to average. Therefore, It was necessary to regulate monthly insurance bill and the payment period according to asset states of insurance subscribers after establishing certain amount of total insurance payment. Thirdly, by and large, it indicated the tendency that the less they prepare for older age the later they wanted to move into the pension insurance residence. It was inferred that in the case of insufficient preparation for older age, people preferred preparing behind time by postponing move in to moving in early to enjoy retired life, due to uncertainties. lastly, the respondents understood the significance of health, medical treatment and emergency management service and these two services were preferred as essential provided services. Because of the necessity of developing residential-linked pension insurance was found to be positive, further research to find the real cost, directives for operation and institutional support for this type of pension insurance might be needed.

  • The purpose of this study was to describe about elders with dementia, their families, and their living environment by visiting the households where demented elders resided. The findings will be used as a basis to develop future individualized adjustment programs for demented elders and their families living in communities. The study participants were 64 demented elders and their families who were registered to a dementia counseling center at Nam-Gu community health center located in Inchon, Korea. Data were collected for two months, from May to June 2001. The length of data collection for each home visit ranged from 1.5 to 2.5 hours. Conclusion are as follows based on these study findings: Those demented elders had more than one chronic health problem in addition to their pre-existing dementia condition. Two thirds of the demented elders were not receiving any specific treatment for dementia. They showed a moderate level of independence in basic ADL, but were mostly residing at home because of lack of ability to perform more delicate and complicate routine daily activities by themselves. In addition, the primary caregivers were not well adjusted to the care-giving activities for their demented family members due to the lack of knowledge and information about dementia. The caregivers were mostly women including daughters-in-law, woman spouses and daughters, over a half of whom perceived their physical and mental health status as poor. Their image toward the demented elders was considerably negative. while their level of knowledge on dementia was moderate. The burden for the care-giving was high, whereas their coping method was passive. As the difference in image toward elderly before and after the onset of dementia in their family member increases, the caregiver burden also increased. The main resource of social support for the caregivers was their children. The caregivers showed high level of needs for knowledge and information on dementia, and day care service was the most preferred type of service by the caregivers. There was lack of safety in the living environments for the demented elders and their families, and in the surrounding environments to prevent dementia-related symptoms. Considering that home-based family care-giving is the most culturally appropriate model of providing care for the demented elders in Korea, we need to develop and apply an individualized adjustment program for the demented elders and their families.
