Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the affection factors of quality of life in thyroid cancer patients after thyroidectomy. The subject of this study were 125 patients with thyroid cancer who were receiving operation and outpatient medical examination in general hospital in Gwangju city. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Sheffe test, Pearson correlation analysis and stepwise multiple regression analysis using SPSS 21.0 program. The significant factors influencing quality of life were depression(${\beta}=-0.39$, p<.001), spiritual fatigue(${\beta}=-0.30$, p<.001) and physical fatigue(${\beta}=-0.24$, p<.001), which explained 57.2% of the quality of life. Therefore, it is necessary to develop nursing intervention program reducing fatigue and depression for thyroid cancer patients after thyroidectomy.

본 연구는 갑상선암 수술환자의 삶의 질 영향요인을 확인하고, 변인간의 관계를 규명하여 갑상선 암 환자의 삶의 질 향상 프로그램 개발의 기초 자료를 제공하고자 한다. 연구 대상자는 광주지역에 소재한 종합병원에서 갑상선절제수술을 받은 갑상선암 환자 125명을 대상으로 하였다. 자료분석은 spss 21.0 프로그램을 이용하여, 일반적 및 질병관련 특성, 피로, 우울, 삶의 질 정도는 기술통계, 일반적 특성에 따른 삶의 질 차이검증은 t-test, one-way ANOVA와 사후분석으로 산출하였고 피로, 우울, 삶의 질의 관련성은 피어슨상관분석, 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 요인은 단계적 회귀분석을 실시였다. 이를 분석한 결과 학력, 암 진단 전 체중변화, 암 진단 전 피로, 암 진단 전 사회활동, 현재 건강상태에서 삶의 질과 유의한 차이를 보였으며, 상관관계에서는 피로(r=-.70, p<.001), 우울(r=-.68, p<.001)이 삶의 질과 부적상관관계를 보였다. 삶의 질의 유의한 영향 요인은 우울(${\beta}=-0.39$, p<.001), 영적 피로(${\beta}=-0.30$, p<.001), 신체적 피로(${\beta}=-0.24$, p<.001)이었으며, 전체 설명력은 57.2%이었다. 따라서 이들의 삶의 질을 향상시키기 위해서는 갑상선 암 수술 후 우울과 피로를 감소시킬 수 있는 간호중재가 필요하다.
