Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the characteristics of elderly motorcycle accidents according to data from elderly inpatients to prepare prevention measures for the elderly against injury in motorcycle accidents. Chi-squared test, independent sample t-test, and canonical correlation analysis were performed on the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency's National Hospital Discharge In-depth Injury Survey data from 2015 to 2019, from which the records of 1,384 elderly inpatients hospitalized because of motorcycle accidents were obtained. intracranial injury(S06) was the most common care and treatment characteristic for both age groups. The most frequent injury site was the head and neck, and the most frequent injury type was a fracture. The above findings show that prevention education and policy formulation at the national level are necessary to identify and manage the factors of elderly motorcycle accidents. This study provides basic data for developing measures and policies to prevent and reduce injuries, making it significant for public health causes.

본 연구의 목적은 노인 오토바이 운수사고 입원환자의 노인분류에 따른 특성을 분석하여 노인 오토바이 운수사고의 손상 예방 대책을 마련하기 위한 기초자료의 제공에 있다. 2015년~2019년의 질병관리청 퇴원손상심층조사 자료 중 오토바이 운수사고로 입원한 노인 입원환자 1,384명을 대상으로 카이제곱검정, 독립표본 t-검정, 정준상관분석을 실시하였다. 진료 및 치료 정보 특성은 연소 노인과 고령 노인 모두 두개내 손상(S06)이 많았고, 손상 부위와 손상 유형은 각각 머리/목, 골절이 가장 많았다. 손상 발생 장소는 길/간선도로, 손상 시 활동은 이동중이 가장 많았다. 이상의 연구결과로 볼 때, 노인 오토바이 운수사고의 특성을 파악하여 이들을 집중적으로 관리하기 위한 국가적 차원의 예방 교육 및 정책 수립이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 이 연구는 손상 예방과 감소를 위한 대책 마련 및 정책 개발에 필요한 기초 자료를 제공했다는 점에서 의의가 있다.
