초록
보건진료원들의 보완요법에 대한 지식, 태도 및 활용경험을 알아보기 위하여 부산 경남 대구 경북 지역에서 연차보건의료 서비스를 제공하고 있는 보건진료원 393명을 대상으로 2002년 2월 1일부터 3월 31일까지 직접 면담 및 우편 설문조사를 실시하였다. 11가지 보완요법 각각에 대한 보건진료원의 관심률은 수지침이 75.3%로 가장 높았고 향기요법 71.0%, 한방요법 68.4%, 마사지 67.4%, 지압 64.6% 등의 순이었으며, 동종요법이 23.4%로 가장 낮았다. 치료효과에 대한 신뢰율은 한방요법이 92.6%로 가장 높았고 수지침 85.5%, 마사지 83.7%, 지압 81.7% 등의 순이었고, 동종요법은 18.1%로 가장 낮았다. 보완요법을 환자에게 권유한 경험은 한방요법 65.1%, 수지 침 50.4%, 마사지 44.8%, 지압 34.4%, 향기요법 27.5% 등의 순이었으며, 동종요법이 2.8%로 가장 낮았다. 보완요법의 학습 경험이 있는 응답자는 수지침 33.1%, 한방요법 13.2%, 향기요법 11.2%, 마사지 8.4%, 지압 5.6% 등의 순이었으며, 동종요법의 학습 경험자는 한명도 없었다. 지난 5년간 보완요법을 직접 이용한 경험이 있는 응답자는 한방요법 23.9%, 수지침 18.8%, 향기요법 5.9%. 마사지 5.3%, 지압 5.1% 등의 순이었고 동종요법은 이용 경험자가 없었다. 이용 경험이 있는 모든 보완요법에서 치료 효과가 있었다는 응답자가 압도적으로 많았으며 부작용의 사례는 매우 적었다. 각각의 보완요법에 대해 보수교육이나 공무원 교육 훈련시 하나의 교육과정으로 도입하기를 희망하는 비율은 수지침 78.1%, 한방요법 69.2%, 향기요법 67.9%, 지압 63.9%, 마사지 63.1% 등의 순이었다. 보건진료원들의 일차진료시 보완요법 사용 희망률은 수지침 63.6%, 마사지 52.9%, 향기요법 51.9%, 한방요법 50.1% 등의 순이었으며, 카이로프락틱과 동종요법은 각각 170%, 12.2%로 매우 낮았다. 대상 보건진료원의 지난 5년간 보완요법 시술경험률은 수지침 8.4%, 한방요법 4.6%, 마사지 2.5%, 향기요법 2.5% 등의 순이었고 봉침요법과 동종요법을 시술한 경험자는 없었다. 시술받은 환자의 반응은 대부분이 긍정적이라고 하였으며, 부작용의 사례는 매우 낮았다. 이상의 결과에서 볼 때 보완요법에 대한 보건진료원들의 관심, 신뢰, 권유 경험률 등은 높았지만 실제 학습 경험률은 매우 낮았다. 또한 실제 이용과 시술경험을 통해 부작용의 문제가 없었으며, 건강에 도움이 될 수 있는 보완요법에 대해서는 교육과정으로 도입하기를 희망하였다. 따라서 지역주민들에게 보완요법 선택과 관련하여 제공하고 건강에 도움이 될 수 있는 보완요법 관련 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 보건진료원에 대한 체계적이고 합리적인 보안요업 교육과정을 개발하여 실시할 수 있도록 정책적인 관심과 지원이 필요하다고 생각된다.
In order to find out the knowledge, attitude, and experience of community health practitioners(CHP) on complementary therapy, 393 community health practitioners who provide primary health care service in Busan, Kyeongnam, and Daegu, Gyeongbuk regions were interviewed or surveyed by mail from February 1st to March 31st, 2002. In terms of interest of CHPs toward 11 different hinds of complementary therapy, the rate of interest for soojichim was the highest with 75.3%. Aroma therapy had the interest of 71.0% of the CHPs, oriental medicine had 67.4%, and massage had 67.4%. The interest for shiatsu was 64.6%, while homeopath had the lowest rate of interest of 18.1%. In terms of reliance on the treatment results, oriental medicine scored the highest with 92.6%, and soojichim, massage, and shiatsu followed with 85.5%, 83.7%, and 81.7% respectively. Homeopath had the lowest reliance of 18.1%. The 65.1% of the CHPs had the experience of recommending oriental medicine to patients. 50.4% indicated that they had recommended soojichim, and 44.8% had recommended massage before. Shiatsu and aromatherapy followed with 34.4% and Homeopath had the lowest rate of 2.80%. When CHPs were asked if they had received any training in complementary therapy, 33.1% indicated that they had studied soojichim and 13.2%stated that they had learned oriental medicine. Aromatherapy, massage, and shiatsu followed with 11.2%, 8.4%, and 5.6% respectively On the other hand, none of the CHPs had received training in homeopath. In terms of using complementary therapy during the past 5 years, 23.9% had been treated with oriental medicine, and 18.896 had received soojichim. 5.9% had received aromatherapy, 5.3% had used massage, and 5.1% had experience with shiatsu. None of the practitioners had used homeopath during the past 5 years. Significantly many number of practitioners indicated that they had excellent treatment results with all hinds of complementary therapy, and there were rare cares of side effects. When they were asked if they wanted complementary therapy to become part of the curriculum during re-training or training for public service personnels, 78100 wanted soojichim, 69.2% wanted oriental medicine, and 67.9% wanted aroma therapy. 63.9% wanted shiatsu to be included, and 63.1% wanted massage. When CHPs were asked if they wanted to use complementary therapy during primary health care, 63.6% wanted to use soojichim, 52.9% wanted massage, and 51.9% wanted to use aroma therapy. Oriental medicine also showed a high rate of 50.1%. On the other hand, only a small percentage wanted to use chiropractic or homeopath with 17.0% and 12,2% respectively. Among the CHPs, there were some who had administered complementary therapy during the past 5 years. 84% had administered soojichim, 4.6% had administered oriental medicine, and 2.5% had administered massage 2.5% of the CHPs answered that they had administered aromatherapy. However, none of them had administered apitherapy or homeopath. Most of patients showed positive responses, and the rate of side effect was very low. As shown in the above results, although CHPs have a high rate of interest, reliance, and experience in recommending complementary therapy, only a low percentage of them had received any training in complementary therapy. In addition, since there were little side effects when they received or administered complementary therapy, they hoped complementary therapy, which can be beneficial to health, to be introduced to the curriculum. Therefore, in order to provide community members with complementary therapy and the correct information regarding the selection of complementary therapy that could be beneficial to health, a policy of continuous interest and support is needed so that CHPs can he provided with a systemic and rational curriculum of complementary therapy.
