A questionnaire examined participants' general characteristics and their experience with and awareness of oriental treatment and a survey on the need for health promotion course of traditional korean medicine were used as the research tools. Results showed that 56.8% of respondents had an experience with oriental treatment over the last year. Participants who responded that oriental treatment was effective accounted for 72.3%. Respondents selected "subject and contents of class" (59.1%) as the important factor in attending the oriental health promotion course, and cardiovascular disease (23.7%) as the disease they wanted to learn about. They considered "self-health care method for diseases" (69.0%) as what they expected most from the class. The results of this study will be useful when planning health promotion course of traditional korean medicine to satisfy the participants' needs.

이 연구는 일개 광역시민 500명을 대상으로 한의약 건강증진 강좌 개설을 위한 기초자료를 마련하고자 수행되었다. 조사 도구로는 대상자의 일반적 특성, 한의약 치료에 대한 경험 및 인식, 한의약 건강증진 강좌에 대한 수요조사 문항으로 구성된 설문지를 이용하였다. 조사 결과 지난 1년간 응답자의 56.8%가 한의약 치료를 이용한 경험이 있었고, 이들 중 74.6%가 한의원을 이용하였다. 질환별로는 근골격계 질환(48.2%), 치료방법으로는 침치료(34.8%)의 이용률이 가장 높았다. 한의약 치료의 효과가 좋다는 응답률은 72.3%였으며, 응답자의 90.9%가 다른 사람에게 한의약 치료를 '추천할 의향이 있다'고 하였다. 응답자의 81.2%가 한의약 건강증진 강좌에 참여할 의사를 보였으며, 강좌 시행에 적합한 장소로는 의료기관(22.5%)을 가장 많이 선택하였다. 강좌 참여 결정에 가장 중요한 사항으로 '강좌의 주제 및 내용'(59.1%)을 수강 희망 주제 질환으로는 순환기질환(23.7%)을 우선으로 선택하였으며, 강좌를 통해 기대하는 사항으로는 '질환에 대한 자가 건강관리 방법'(69.0%)을 가장 많이 고려하였다. 이 연구의 결과는 대상자의 요구를 보다 충족시킬 수 있는 한의약 건강증진 강좌 구성에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.
