Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the factors influencing the decision on whether to receive regular oral check-ups among the national health insurance beneficiaries with income and aged over 20 years in Korea. This was a cross-sectional study, using the data from the 2014 6th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES VI-2), conducted by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The final sample included 2,843 subjects who participated in the health examination survey and oral check-ups. The IBM SPSS Statistics ver. 20.0 was used for the statistical analysis, based on the complex sampling design. The Rao-Scott chi-square test was used to verify the difference in the distribution of independent variables with regard to oral check-ups. The binary logistic regression analysis was used to determine the influencing factors. The ratio of beneficiaries who received oral check-ups was less than half of those who received medical examinations. The Rao-Scott chi-square test, revealed significant differences in the age group (p<0.05) of the predisposing factors, toothache within a year (p<0.001), untreated dental caries (p<0.001) of the need factors, personal income level (p<0.001), educational level (p<0.001), type of medical insurance (p<0.001), and private health insurance (p<0.01) of the enabling factors. In the binary logistic regression analysis, factors influencing oral check-ups were age group, personal income level, educational level, toothache within a year, and untreated dental caries. These findings show a variety of factors influencing the utilization of regular oral check-ups.

본 연구는 20세 이상 경제활동자의 구강검진 수진에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하기 위해 제6기 국민건강영양조사(2014) 자료를 이용하여 복합표본설계로 분석하였다. 구강검진 여부에 응답한 2,843명을 대상으로 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 첫째, 20세 이상 경제활동자의 건강검진 수진율은 66.5%, 구강검진 수진율은 30.1%로 건강검진 수진율 절반 수준에도 미치지 못하였다. 둘째, 소인성 요인에 따른 구강검진 수진 여부를 비교한 결과 연령에서 40대(34.3%)와 50대(34.3%)가 가장 높고, 30대(30.1%), 20대(27.5%), 전기노인(24.9%), 후기노인(12.0%) 순이었다. 셋째, 가능성 요인에서는 개인소득이 상위집단일수록, 교육수준이 높을수록 구강검진 수진율이 높았다. 개인소득이 하위그룹에 비해 상위그룹이 구강검진을 받을 확률이 1.50배 높았고, 대졸 이상인 사람에 비해 초졸 이하인 사람은 0.37배, 중졸인 사람은 0.49배 구강검진을 받을 확률이 낮았다. 건강보험종류에 따라 직장보험(33.5%) 가입자가 지역보험(24.2%) 가입자에 비해, 민간의료보험 가입자(31.7%)가 비가입자(22.7%)에 비해 구강검진 수진율이 높게 나타났다. 넷째, 필요성 요인에서는 치통을 경험한 사람(36.9%)이 치통을 경험하지 않은 사람(25.9%)에 비해, 구강검진 수진 확률이 0.55배 낮았다. 영구치우식 유병자(23.2%)가 영구치우식 비유병자(33.0%)보다 구강검진 수진 확률이 0.62배 낮았다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때 20세 이상 경제활동자의 구강검진 수진에 영향을 미치는 요인은 의료자원의 이용을 가능하게 하는 외적요인인 가능성 요인(개인소득, 교육수준, 건강보험종류, 민간의료보험가입 여부), 상병의 수준을 의미하는 필요성 요인(치통 경험 유무, 영구치우식유병 여부), 질병 이전부터 존재해 온 개인의 특성을 의미하는 소인성 요인(연령) 등이 복합적으로 작용하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 효과적인 구강검진 및 치료체계를 확립하기 위해서는 개인의 구강관리라는 행태적 요인뿐만 아니라 의료자원의 이용을 가능하게 하는 가능성, 소인성, 필요성 등 다양한 요인을 종합적으로 고려할 필요가 있음을 본 연구결과는 시사해 주고 있다.
