초록

요양병원에서 6개월 이상 입원 가료중인 노인환자들을 대상으로 구강건강상태를 객관적으로 평가하였고, 전신질환 및 우울감 상태를 파악하여 구강건강관련 삶의 질과의 관련요인을 확인한 결과는 다음과 같다. 대상자의 잔존치아 수는 11.22개였고, 우식치아 수는 1.17개, 동요치아 수는 0.93개였으며, 81.9%에서 구취가 확인되었다. 전신질환이 없거나 한 가지 미만인 경우는 29.70%에 불과하였고, 70.31%가 두 개 이상의 복합적인 전신질환을 가지고 있었다. 대상자의 87.8%에서 우울감이 있었으며, 이 중 55.40% 는 심한 우울감을 나타냈다. 구강건강관련 삶의 질은 평균 2.62점이었고, 관련요인으로는 요양등급, 입원기간, 연령과 함께 잔존치아 수와 우식치아 수로 확인되었다. 이상의 결과를 통해 요양병원에 장기입원 중인 노인환자는 일반노인에 비해 전반적으로 구강건강상태가 좋지 않았으며, 전신질환 수와 우울감이 높고, 구강건강관련 삶의 질이 낮아 고령화사회에서 노인인구를 위한 대책이 시급하며, 특히 요양시설 노인환자를 위한 구강건강관리 프로그램 개발이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

This study intended to examine the health status and quality of life among the elderly patients who stayed in geriatric hospitals for a long period of time. The study involved 222 elderly who were older than 65-year-old, an oral examination was conducted in 10 geriatric hospitals located in the metropolitan area and Chungcheong-do. Cross-tabulation, one-way ANOVA, t-test, and Stepwise multiple regression were performed for analysis. The average number of teeth among the subjects was 11.22 and that of dental caries was 1.17. Also, the average number of teeth mobility was 0.93 and halitosis was detected among 81.9%. Only 29.70% reported absence or a kind of systemic disease and 70.31% of the subjects was shown to have more than two kinds of complex disease. In addition, 87.8% of the subjects had depression and among them, 55.40% showed serious depression. The average score on quality of life was 2.62 points and as for the related factors, the number of remaining teeth and dental caries were counted along with care grade, hospitalization period, and age. According to such results, the oral health status among the elderly patients staying long in geriatric hospitals were not good in general; also they showed high level of systemic disease and depression and low quality of life.
