  • 최근 늘어나고 있는 스트레스로 인한 피로와 심리적 장애로 인해 현대인들은 고통 받고 있다. 다수의 사람들이 고통을 완화시키기 위해 약물치료에 의존하고 있는 추세이며 대체의학이나 대체요법으로 치료하는 사람들도 많이 있다. 그러나 약물치료는 약물 복용 후 더 많은 스트레스를 겪는 등 여러 가지 부작용을 가지고 있다. 이에 비해 대체요법의 테라피분야, 마사지, 발반사요법 등은 비 약물치료로써 인체에 부담이 덜하며 편안한 심신을 유지하며 치료받을 수 있는 부분이다. 이에 본 저자는 컬러테라피요법과 발반사요법의 장점을 종합하여 고통이 없이 간단한 방법으로 치료효과를 볼 수 있는 컬러 발반사요법(color foot reflexology)을 전 연구에서 공동개발한 바 있다. 이를 본 논문에서는 자극시 효과에 플라시보 효과를 대조군으로 비교하여 인체생리신호측정반응을 평가하여 발 컬러 반사요법이 인체생리반응에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 정량적으로 연구하였다. 최적화된 실험환경과 객관화된 시스템에서 건강한 성인군을 대상으로 실험하였다. 그 결과 자극을 주었을 때는 HRV에서 부교감신경의 증가세가 나타났으며 혈압, 맥박, 체온 말초혈류량이 활발하게 작용하는 변화를 보였다. 그러나 플라시보에서는 거의 변화가 없거나 뷸규칙적인 결과가 나타났다. 이결과는 컬러 발반사요법이 자율신경계와 인체생리적반응에 긍정적인 영향에 관계됨을 알 수 있으며 이는 개발 기기의 유효성을 증명하는데 좋은 자료로써 충분한 근거이다. 그리고 이의 연구결과를 바탕으로 향 후 발과 관련하여 불규칙적인 생리현상에 의한 질병이나 질환에 관하여 특정군을 대상으로 실험 연구하여 객관적인 실험검증을 할 계획이다.

  • Purpose: The purpose of the study was to compare the effectiveness of multi interventional package (MIP) and lifestyle interventions (LI) on physiological parameters of women with metabolic syndrome, to compare the effectiveness of MIP and LI on biochemical parameters of women with metabolic syndrome and to compare the effectiveness of MIP and LI on socio-psychological parameters of women with metabolic syndrome. Methods: A quasi experimental nonequivalent control group design with two experimental groups and one control group was used to collect data from 60 self-help group women. Samples were selected by multistage sampling. Reflexology foot massage, dietary modification, moderate intensity exercise and structured education were given to MIP group and dietary modification, moderate intensity exercise and structured education were given to LI group for 12 weeks. Control group received routine care. Demographic and clinical data sheets were used to collect basic information. Knowledge was assessed by a knowledge questionnaire. Physiological (weight, body mass index, waist circumference and blood pressure) and biochemical parameters (HDL, triglycerides and FBS) were assessed before and after the intervention. Results: The study found significant change in the physiological and biochemical parameters of metabolic syndrome as well as knowledge among the MIP group and LI group compared to the control group (p <.001). Conclusion: MIP and LI are effective in controlling the parameters of metabolic syndrome. Hence the guidance may be provided to women with metabolic syndrome for adopting necessary lifestyle changes as well as reflexology foot massage to control the physiological and biochemical parameters of metabolic syndrome.

  • Purpose: Home health nurses could affect patients' choice of alternative therapy. This study was carried out to investigate home health nurses' attitudes and cognition toward alternative therapy. Method: The subjects were 92 nurses who preparing the home health nurses at 2 university in Seoul and Suwon. Using the questionnaire. we measured the subjects' attitudes and cognition toward alternative therapy. Result: The mean score of attitudes about application was 3.14. and the score of attitudes about therapeutic effect was 2.57. The score of attitudes about therapeutic effect were significantly positive correlation to the score of cognition about alternative therapy. The attitudes about therapeutic effect were different significantly according to number of working years. But they commonly wanted to apply the soojichim. aroma-therapy. massage. danjon breathing. music therapy. plant therapy. and foot reflexology to their home health care subjects. Conclusion: Alternative therapies became a popular source of health care in Korea. This study showed pre-home health nurses had positive attitudes toward alternative therapies and they had wide variations of knowledge in how to use each therapy. But they acknowledge the value of alternative therapies as useful nursing interventions. so we all nurses should pay attention to develope the nursing intervention using alternative therapy.

  • 본 연구는 월경불편감을 겪는 대상자들의 월경전증후군 및 월경곤란증을 완화하기 위해 적용한 수기요법의 중재효과를 확인하기 위해 실시한 메타분석 연구이다. 2018년 5월 31일까지 출판된 문헌들을 대상으로 검색한 결과 11개의 데이터베이스에서 총1,808개의 연구가 일차적으로 확인되었으며, 두 명의 연구자가 포함기준 및 배제기준을 충족하는 30개의 논문을 최종 선택하여 RoB과 RoBANS를 통해 각각 질 평가를 수행하였다. 연구 결과, 월경전증후군에 적용한 수기요법의 중재효과는 발반사요법이 -1.20 (95% CI: -1.55 to -0.86), 이압요법이 -0.44 (95% CI: -0.68 to -0.20), 지압요법이-0.56 (95% CI: -0.80 to -0.32)으로 나타났다. 월경곤란증에 적용한 수기요법의 중재효과는 발반사요법이 -0.64 (95% CI: -1.07 to -0.20), 이압요법이 -1.09 (95% CI: -1.46 to -0.71), 지압요법이 -0.75 (95% CI: -1.00 to -0.50), 마사지가 -0.68 (95% CI: -1.08 to -0.27)로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 수기요법이 월경전증후군 및 월경곤란증으로 야기되는 월경불편감을 완화시키는 효과를 있음을 확인한 바, 추후 표준화된 수기요법 개발의 기초자료로 본 연구의 결과가 활용되기를 기대한다.

  • The purpose of this study was to help in explaining the necessity of education on complementary and alternative medicine(CAM) and opening relevant curriculums in nursing education by grasping the kinds of CAM in which nursing students want to be opened. Data were collected from September 27, 2003 through October 20, 2003. A group of 865 nursing students were surveyed using questionnaires in seven universities whose curriculums on CAM have not been available. Collected data were statistically analyzed by using SAS 8.02 system, and the study results are as follows: 1. The average of subjects' behavior toward CAM was 3.52 of the total 5 with practical affairs 3.79. medical treatment 3.79, social concerns 3.84, and communication 3.78. 2. Most nursing students $(90.6\%)$ did not precisely understand the meaning of CAM although they had heard of it. Most of them $(85.5\%)$ had no experience of applying CAM. The study also revealed that more qualified CAM lecturers in the future are needed: specialist in the relevant field $(83.2\%)$, doctor and herb doctor $(6.5\%)$, clinical nurse $(6.0\%)$ and professor of the department of nursing science $(4.3\%)$. 3. Concerning students' behavior toward CAM, there were statistically significant difference between students from agrarian and fishing villages (F=4.91. p=.007) and the others. 4. CAM courses that students want were therapeutic touch (massage) $(22.9\%)$. aroma therapy $(14.8\%)$, manual healing methods $(14.7\%)$, treatment of blood vessel $(8.3\%)$, foot reflexology $(7.9\%)$, and heart remedy $(6.8\%)$. In conclusion, the study indicated that nursing students had positive attitudes toward CAM and for this. healers should have a frank talk with patients in order to maximize symptom-relieving effects. However, the study showed that most nursing students did not understand the exact meaning of CAM. Considered the fact that improvement of both health status and quality of life will be an important issue in the future, active introduction and education of CAM in nursing curriculum are a matter of necessity.
