Abstract

This study was conducted through a focus group interview of 4 teams of 40 nursing students to provide basic data for the development of customized cadaver practice programs and life and nursing ethics education by identifying the anatomical observation experiences of nursing students through cadaver. We tried to grasp the meaning and essence of the anatomical observation experience using the Colaizzi analysis method. As a result of the analysis, 3 categories, 6 theme clusters, and 12 themes were derived. The theme clusters for each category are as follows: Unrest (worry, confrontation), reflection (the boundary between life and death, teaching of the body teacher), growth (step forward, a valuable experience that will never be again). It was an opportunity for nursing students to realize the mystery of the human body and the preciousness of life through the experience of cadaver, and to consider the altruistic life through donation while recognizing that death is also a process of life in a broad sense.

본 연구는 간호학생의 카데바 실습 경험을 확인하여 간호학과 맞춤형 카데바 실습 프로그램 개발 및 생명·간호 윤리 교육을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 40명을 대상으로 4팀의 포커스 그룹 인터뷰 통해 도출된 자료를, Colaizzi 분석방법으로 인체 해부 관찰 경험의 의미와 본질을 파악하고자 하였다. 간호학생의 인체 해부 관찰 경험에 대한 분석결과는 3개 범주와 6개의 주제모음 및 12개의 주제가 도출되었다. 각 범주별 주제모음은 다음과 같다: 불안(걱정, 직면), 성찰(삶과 죽음의 경계선, 시신스승의 가르침), 성장(전진, 다시없을 값진 경험). 간호학생은 카데바 실습 경험으로 인체의 신비와 생명의 소중함을 깨닫고, 죽음 또한 넓은 의미에서 생명의 한 과정임을 인식하며 기증을 통한 이타적인 삶도 고민해보는 기회였다. 이상의 연구결과를 바탕으로 효과적인 카데바 실습 오리엔테이션과 감정 대처법 제시, 가상 죽음체험과 같은 죽음준비 프로그램을 통해 생명과 죽음, 인간의 존엄성에 고민해볼 수 있는 기회를 간호학생들에게 제공할 필요가 있다.
