Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine empirically the causal relationship between significant adverse outcomes of elderly frailty. The 2017 National Survey on Old Adults was used to test this, but only nine variables necessary for the hypothesis test were abstracted from it. The results of the hypothesis test are summarized as follows. The sub-variables of adverse outcomes, such as disabilities in daily living activities, disabilities in instrumental daily living activities, and health care utilization, were analyzed empirically by inputting sub-variables of six frailty factors into hierarchical regression analysis. In the final model, the physical activities, emotional control, and social support were verified as significant variables influencing the disabilities in daily living activities. These included the following: physical activities, sensory functions, cognition, emotional control and social support as those influencing disabilities in the instrumental daily living activities; and nutrition, physical activities, sensory functions, emotional control, and social support as those influencing the health care utilization. Based on the results of the hypothesis test, it is necessary to develop and implement personalized health management programs that specifically identify elderly weakness factors that affect adverse outcomes, such as disabilities or health care utilization.

본 연구는 노인허약의 유의미한 부정적 결과요인들을 검증해 그 인과적 관계를 실증하는 데 연구 목적을 두었다. 이를 검증하기 위해 본 연구는 전국노인실태조사 자료 중 2017년도 조사 자료를 활용하되 본 연구에서 설정한 가설 검증에 필요한 9개 변수만을 추출해서 활용하였다. 가설 검증 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 6가지의 허약요인의 하위 변수들을 위계적 회귀분석에 투입해 부정적 결과요인의 하위 변수인 일상생활활동 장애, 도구적 일상생활활동 장애, 의료서비스 이용에의 영향관계에 대한 실증 결과 일상생활활동 장애에 미치는 영향 실증 결과에서는 최종 모형에서 신체활동, 감정 조절, 사회적 지지가 유의한 영향변수로 검증되었고 도구적 일상생활활동 장애에 미치는 영향 실증 결과에서는 최종 모형에서 신체활동, 감각기능, 인지력, 감정 조절, 사회적 지지가 유의한 영향변수로 검증되었으며 의료서비스 이용에 미치는 영향 실증 결과에서는 최종 모형에서 영양, 신체활동, 감각기능, 감정 조절, 사회적 지지가 유의한 영향변수로 검증되었다. 본 연구의 가설 검증 결과에 기초할 때 장애나 의료서비스 이용과 같은 부정적 결과에 영향을 미치는 노인허약요인을 구체적으로 식별해 그에 상응하는 개별화된 건강관리프로그램의 개발 및 실행이 필요하다.
