Abstract

This study conducted surveys of 88 eldery people over 100 years in Gyeongnam on April to June, 2011 during 90 days. It was intended to find the factors of longevity, Activity Daily of Living (ADL), and Instrumental Activity Daily of Living (IADL). Major results of this study were as follows: The factors of longevity are getting enough sleep over than seven hours(95.5%), taking in less salty food (69.8%), optimism without even thinking about suicide (86.9%), nonsmoking habit (92%), and moderation in drink (86.4%). The most difficult part of Activity Daily of Living (ADL) is taking a bath, and that of Instrumental Activity Daily of Living (IADL) is taking a bus or subway alone. All items of ADL and IADL, female was higher than the male, but not statistically significant(p<0.05). Therefore, further study is expected to develop the supplementary policy to support the elderly people with declining to carry out physical activities. It is also expected to develop the public welfare programs and policies for the aged, allowing them to take responsibility and to participate as a member of the society.

본 연구는 경남지역의 백세인(100세 이상 자) 88 명을 대상으로 2011년 4월부터 6월까지 약 90여 일간장수 요인과 일상생활 수행능력 도구적 생활수행능력 정도를 파악하기 위한 목적으로 수행하였다. 장수요인으로는 7시간 이상의 충분한 수면(93.6%), 규칙적인 식사(95.5%,) 짠 음식 적게 섭취(69.8%), 그리고 자살을 생각하지 않는 낙관적 사고(86.9%)와 금연(92.0%) 과 절주(86.4%,)로 나타났다. 일상생활수행능력(ADL) 중 목욕하는 것이 가장 힘들었으며 도구적 생활수행능력(IADL)의 경우는 버스나 전철 혼자타기가 가장 힘든 것으로 나타났다. 모든 영역에서 여성이 남성에 비해 일상생활수행능력, 도구적 생활수행능력이 높은 것으로 나타났으나 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다(p<0.05). 따라서 향후 연구에서는 본 연구의 결과를 토대로 점차 늘어나고 있는 백세인의 신체수행능력 저하를 보완 지지할 수 있는 정책의 개발이 필요한 것으로 사료된다.
