연구목적: 여성 요실금 환자들의 불안과 우울의 정도를 알아보고 체외자기장신경치료 전후로 불안과 우울의 정도를 비교하고자 하였다. 연구방법: 산부인과 외래 여성 요실금 환자 55명을 대상으로 자가보고형 설문지를 이용하여 환자들을 호전군과 비호전군으로 나누어 체외자기장신경치료 전후로 불안과 우울의 정도를 측정하였다. 측정도구로는 Beck Depression Inventory(BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory(BAI), Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)를 사용하였고 통계분석은 SPSS를 사용하여 치료전후의 불안과 우울의 정도를 T-test를 하여 비교하였다. 결과 및 결론: 여성 요실금 환자들은 높은 수준의 불안과 우울을 보였다. 불안과 우울의 정도는 체외자기장신경치료 후 요실금의 호전과 관계없이 감소하였다. 체외자기장신경치료를 포함하여 요실금의 치료는 치료의 성공유무와 상관없이 치료한다는 그 자체로 요실금 환자들의 불안과 우울에 도움을 주는 것 같다.
