Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the sensation changes in upper extremity and the quality of life for post-operative mastectomy patients. Methods: This study used a descriptive study design. The participants were 132 women who had mastectomies after being diagnosed with breast cancer and were participating in breast cancer self-help groups. The sensation changes in the arm of the surgery site was measured by the arm symptoms which were subjective uncomfortable feelings of the affected arm, and the quality of life was measured by Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36. Collected data were analyzed by ANOVA, t-test, ${\chi}^2$-test and multiple regression with SPSS WIN 12.0 program. Results: Patients with stage IV breast cancer had severe changes in sensation of the arm. Participants with lymphedema had statistically significant changes in sensation compared to participants without lymphedema, but the quality of life was not different between the two groups. Pain by the SF 36 was statistically different between the two groups, with- and without-lymphedema. The factors in upper extremity's sensation changes which influence on quality of life were pain and heaviness. Conclusion: Nursing intervention for relieving pain and heaviness of the affected arm needs to be developed in order to improve QOL of the breast cancer survivors.

질병발생 양상이 변화되고 건강에 대한 관심이 증가하며, 건강에 대한 임상적이며 객관적인 평가와 동시에 환자의 주관적 인식을 포괄하는 건강 상태를 평가하기 위한 노력이 계속되고 있다. HRQoL을 측정하는 것을 이러한 노력 중 하나로 꼽을 수 있는데, 본 연구는 일반적인 HRQoL과 구강건강 상태와의 관련성을 알아보기 위해 수행되었다. 대표성 있는 국민건강영양조사 자료 중 제6기 2차년도(2014년) 자료를 활용하여 분석을 수행하였다. EQ-5D로 측정된 일반적인 HRQoL에 영향을 미치는 요인은 성별, 연령, 교육수준, 소득수준, 민간건강보험 가입 여부, 주관적으로 인식하는 전신건강상태, 최근 1년간 치통 경험, 현존 치아 수로 확인되었다(p<0.05). 구강건강은 전반적인 건강상태를 결정짓는데 중요한 역할을 하기 때문에 객관적인 구강건강 상태가 전신건강에 영향을 미치고, 이는 결국 일반적인 HRQoL에 관련성이 있는 것으로 볼 수 있다.

본 연구의 목적은 도구적 일상생활에 초점을 둔 복합인지중재 프로그램이 치매고위험군 노인의 인지기능, 우울정도, 삶의 질에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보는 것이다. 본 연구는 충북 G지역에서 2018년 3월부터 6월까지 실시한 인지재활 프로그램에 참여한 24명의 치매고위험군 노인을 대상으로 하였다. 중재방법은 도구적 일상생활과 관련된 인지훈련 및 창조적 활동을 적용하였고 중재 전후에 MMSE-DS, 주관적 기억감퇴 설문지, 단축형 우울척도, 삶의 질 평가를 실시하여 변화를 비교하였다. 그 결과 연구대상자들은 도구적 일상생활 초점의 복합인지중재프로그램 후 주관적 기억력 감퇴 정도와 삶의 질에서는 유의미한 향상을 보였으나, 인지기능과 우울정도에는 변화가 없었다. 우리는 본 연구를 통하여 노인의 실제 생활에 영향을 줄 수 있는 복합인지중재 프로그램이 지역사회에서 유용하게 적용될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 추후 다양한 도구적 일상생활 활동을 활용한 프로그램의 개발이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Objectives: The purpose of the study is to investigate the subjective oral status perception and OHIP according to the oral health managementamong international and domestic university students. Methods: self-reported questionnaire was completed by 176 domestic and 175 international university students in Daegu and Gyeongbuk from August 25 to November 1, 2014. The informed consent was received after explanation of the purpose of the study by the researcher. The questionnaire consisted of general characteristics of the subjects, toothbrushing behavior, oral health management, subjective oral status perception. and oral health impact profile (OHIP). The subjective oral status perception and OHIP was measured by Likert 5 point scale. Results: The international students tended to have higher subjective oral status perception when they had longer stay with the roommate in Korea. The female international students tended to have higher OHIP than the male students. The domestic students with lower grades and roommates showed higher OHIP. The international students had a poorer practice of oral health management than domestic students. The overall mean of subjective oral status perception was 3.13 in domestic students, and 3.09 and 3.22 in international students. The overall mean of OHIP was 4.21 in domestic students and 4.25 and 4.16 in the international students, Conclusions: International students had a higher subjective oral status perception than domestic students, but their wrong oral health management lowered their quality of life. It is necessary to provide the oral health management for the international students continuously.

Purpose: This study has aimed to examine the relationship among self-esteem, Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and depression reported by hospitalized elderly patients with chronic diseases. Methods: A descriptive correlation study by means of a self-report questionnaire or face-to-face interview was used to collect data from 119 elderly patients who were hospitalized in a General Hospital from January 5 to February 25, 2010. Their levels of depression was measured using Short-Form Geriatric Depression Scale, self esteem using Jeon's, and activities of daily living using K-ADL. Results: 80.7% of the subjects experienced depression. Depression correlates with self-esteem (r=-.67) and ADL (r=.45). The influencing factors on depression were self-esteem, ADL, subjective health status, and family support satisfaction ($R^2=.57$), while self esteem in itself explained 45% of variance in depression. Conclusion: These findings indicate the importance of early detection of depression, which starts from the admission of patients and the continuing evaluation/management in daily life after discharge to ensure their well-being and quality of life. The development of program empowering self esteem, ADL and subjective health status with adequate family support during hospitalization and in daily life is indispensible.

Objectives Non-major depression with fewer symptoms than required for a Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-4th edition diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) has consistently been found to be associated with functional impairment. In this study, we aim to estimate the cognitive impairment and the quality of life in elderly patients with subsyndromal depression (SSD) compared with non-depressive elderly (NDE). Methods The Korean version of Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview was administered to 194 outpatients with depression and 108 normal controls. SSD is defined as having five or more current depressive symptoms with core depressive symptoms (depressive mood or loss of interest or pleasure) during more than half a day and more than seven days over two weeks. Depression was evaluated by the Korean form of Geriatric Depression Scale of a 15-item short version. Global cognition was assessed by Mini-Mental State Examination in the Korean version of CERAD assessment packet (MMSE-KC). Subjective cognitive impairment was assessed by the Subjective Memory Complaint Questionnaire. Quality of life was evaluated by the Korean Version of Short-Form 36-Item Health Survey. Results The mean score of the MMSE-KC in the SSD group was lower than that in the NDE group with adjustment for age, gender, and education [F = 4.270, p = 0.04, analysis of covariance (ANCOVA)]. If we defined those having Z-score of MMSE-KC < -1.5 as a high risk group of cognitive impairment, the odds ratio for the high risk group of cognitive impairment was 1.86 [95% confidence intervals (CI) 1.04-3.34] in SSD and 7.57 (95% CI 3.50-16.40) in MDD compared to NDE. The scores of physical component summary (F = 9.274, p = 0.003, ANCOVA) and mental component summary (F = 53.166, p < 0.001, ANCOVA) in the SSD group were lower than those in the NDE group with adjustment for age, gender, and education. Conclusions The subjects with SSD, as well as those with MDD, showed impairment of global cognition and also experienced low quality of life in both physical and mental aspects, compared to the NDE group.
