Abstract

This study aimed to examine factors associated with health-related quality of life among female cancer survivors based on COVID-19 infection experience. A sample of 137 female cancer survivors was recruited from November 2022 to January 2023. The collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, independent t-test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression ways using SPSS 25.0 program. As a result, age (𝛽=.20, p<.05), depressive mood (𝛽=-.29, p<.01) and anxiety (𝛽=-.39, p<.001), and social support (𝛽=.35, p<.001) were associated with health-related quality of life in the group having experience with COVID-19 infection (F=26.932, p<.001). On the contrary, the non-experienced COVID-19 infection group showed age (𝛽=.22, p<.001), anxiety (𝛽=-.54, p<.001), and prevention behaviors for COVID-19 infection (𝛽=.25, p<.001) were significant factors(F=64.937, p<.001). Tailed intervention is needed to improve health-related quality of life in female cancer survivors as a high-risk group for COVID-19, considering associated factors.

본 연구는 코로나19 감염 경험 여부에 따른 여성암 생존자의 건강관련 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하고자 시도되었다. 연구는 여성암 생존자 137명을 대상으로 2022년 11월 1일부터 2023년 1월 24일 까지 자료를 수집하였으며, 자료 분석은 SPSS 25.0 program을 이용하여 기술통계, 독립표본 t검정, 상관분석 및 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 건강관련 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인한 결과 코로나19에 감염경험이 있는 군은 나이(𝛽=.20, p<.05), 우울(𝛽=-.29, p<.01), 불안(𝛽=-.39, p<.001)과 사회적 지지(𝛽=.35, p<.001)가 유의한 영향요인으로 확인되었다(F=26.932, p<.001). 반면 코로나 19 감염경험이 없는 군에서는 나이(𝛽=.22, p<.001), 불안(𝛽=-.54, p<.001)과 코로나19 예방행위(𝛽=.25, p<.001)가 유의한 것으로 드러났다(F=64.937, p<.001). 코로나19 고위험군인 여성암 생존자의 건강관련 삶의 질을 향상시키기 위해 관련요인을 고려한 맞춤형 접근이 필요하다.
