Abstract

This study aims to prevent maternal social isolation by analyzing the causes of postpartum obesity and postpartum depression and stress in Korea. Gneral characteristics of mothers as a result of the study: 91.1% (102 people) answered that they had social experience, and only 8% (9 people) answered that they had no social experience. In the question of whether to return to society, 17.9% responded that they have already returned, 54.5% did not, and 18.8% were on maternity leave. As a result of examining the level of BMI increase among mothers through chi-square test of BMI changes before and after childbirth and general characteristics, 55% experienced below-average BMI increase; 45% experienced above-average BMI increase. Those in their 30s accounted for 40.2%, and those in their 40s accounted for 57.1%. Postpartum obesity and maternal psychological status (t-test): Mothers with postpartum obesity were more hypersensitive (t = -1.997, p = 0.048) and more prone to suffer from hard breathing (t = -1.930, p = 0.056), emptiness (t = -2.673, p = 0.010), and body numbness (t = -2.315, p = 0.024) than mothers who are not suffering from not postpartum obesity. Per the results of postpartum BMI increase and maternal psychological state (t-test) analysis, mothers with an average increase in postpartum BMI were more depressed than mothers who did not. Research Results - Postpartum obesity due to pregnancy and childbirth has been identified as an important individual cause affecting mental and physical problems after childbirth. In conclusion, I also think that the government should support the management of maternal obesity and the elimination of depression through the results of this study.

본 연구는 국내 산후 복과 산후 우울증 및 스트레스 등의 실태조사를 통해 원인을 분석하고, 산모의 사회적 고립를 예방하고자 시도한 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구방법-전국에 거주하는 1살 이하의 자녀를 둔 주 대상인 20-40대 여성을 표본으로 선정하였고, 총 111부를 최종 분석 자료로 사용하였다. 연구결과-산모들의 일반적 특성 -일반적 특성으로 사회 경험을 묻는 말에서는 91.1%(102명)가 사회 경험이 있다고 응답하였고, 8%(9명)만이 사회 경험이 없다고 응답하였다.(사회경험유 91.1%(102명), 사회경험 무 8%(9명) 사회 복귀를 여부를 묻는 질문에서는 17.9%의 산모가 복귀하였다고 응답하였고, 54.5%의 산모는 복귀하지 않았으며, 18.8%의 산모는 출산 휴가 중인 것으로 나타났다. 출산 전과 후의 BMI 변화와 일반적 특성의 교차분석(카이제곱 검정) 산모들의 BMI 증가 수준을 살펴본 결과 Table 3과 같이 BMI가 평균 이하로 증가한 산모가 55%, 평균 이상으로 증가한 여성이 45%로 조사되었다. 연구결과- 임신과 출산으로 인해 여성들은 신체적 변화로 인해 과체중이 될 확률이 높다. 연구결과-임신과 출산으로 산후비만은 산후 정신적, 신체적 문제에 영향을 미치는 개인의 중요한 원인으로 확인되었다. 연구 결과를 바탕으로 산모비만관리와 우울증관리에 적극적인 정부 정책이 필요하다고 사료된다.
