Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the health management experience of Vietnamese Married Immigrant Women living in the city. Methods: The study participants were 11 Vietnamese immigrant women residing in the urban area who felt bad about their health. Data collection was conducted in depth through individual interviews, and the collected data were analyzed through Strauss & Corbin data analysis. Results: The core category was "health is not a necessity but a choice in a strange land called Korea". The contextual conditions were, "The hard thing-exposing "myself" to the world", and "Hurts hidden, to be away from people's eyes". For the causal condition, the categories of "Unfamiliar life to live alone", "Unfamiliar life different from expectation", and "Symptoms of body suddenly suffering alone", were derived. Through action-interaction, the immigrant women revealed that in their Korean social-structural context, they tended to follow "Health pushed away in turbulent life". The intervening conditions were "a person who is able to help me", "places that can give a helping hand nearby", and "Vietnamese women's grit". A Vietnamese married immigrant woman had her own "Health in the chain with life". As a result, they gained "Health, which is a top priority in life" or "Health oppressed by the weight of life". Conclusion: This study enhanced the understanding of the healthcare process of Vietnamese married immigrant women living in urban areas.

담석증의 원인으로 잘 알려진 위험 요소는 고령의 나이, 여성성별, 비만, 대사증후군, 제주 이주민이다. 많은 젊은 성인들이 교통이 원활하고 상업 활동이 활발한 제주시에 사는 경향이 있다. 반면에 고령자들은 어업과 농업에 종사하기 때문에 서귀포에 많이 거주하는 경향이 있다. 이주민과 고령자의 비율은 두 지역 거주자의 담석증 유병률에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 따라서 이 연구의 목적은 제주도 두 지역 거주민들에서 담석증 유병률과 임상적으로 연관된 위험인자들을 비교해 보고자 하는 것이다. 이 연구는 2012년 1월부터 2019년 12월까지 제주도에 소재한 단일 건강검진센터에서 검진을 시행한 13,050명을 대상으로 하였고 거주자들의 주소지에 따라 분석하였다. 제주도 거주민들의 담석증 유병률은 제주시 거주민들에서 5.7%, 서귀포시 거주민들에서 5.8%였다. 다변량 분석에서 연령 (P=0.008), 체질량지수 (P=0.044), 고밀도지질단백질-콜레스테롤 (P=0.006) 및 감마-글루타밀전이효소 (P=0.013)가 담석증에 영향을 미치는 독립적인 요인이었다. 고령, 평균 체질량지수, 감마-글루타밀전이효소 및 낮은 고밀도지질단백질-콜레스테롤은 담석증의 독립적인 위험인자였다. 그러나 거주지는 담석증의 유병률에 영향을 미치지 않았다.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to identify and explain the essences and structures of maternal conflicts in Vietnamese married immigrant women in Korea. Methods: A phenomenological methodology was used for the study. Eleven Vietnamese married immigrant women participated in the study. Verbatim transcripts were analyzed using Colaizzi's method. Results: Four categories, 10 clusters and 26 themes emerged from the data for the experience in maternal conflicts of Vietnamese married immigrant women. The four categories were 'An unprepared young motherhood in another culture', 'Feeling left out of the mother's place along the bands of Nap tai tradition', 'My image is like not-being able to stand alone/be independent' and 'Finding hope in motherhood despite of conflicts and stigmas'. Conclusion: Vietnamese married immigrant women experienced not only the negative aspects but also sublimation of maternal conflicts. Based on the results, health professionals need to develop effective nursing interventions toward a positive maternal identity and approach with interculturalism for the Vietnamese married immigrant women in Korea.

2000년대 이후 급격히 증가한 이주민으로 인해 우리나라는 다문화 사회로의 진입이 확대되었고, 결혼이주여성들 또한 늘고 있어 이들과의 조우는 이제 필연적이다. 통계에 의하면 외국어 사용에 불편을 느끼는 비율이 65.5%에 이른다고 밝혀졌다. 이를 통해 자동통역기에 대한 사용자들의 수요가 매우 높다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 기술을 이용한 온라인 전시회는 하이퍼링크를 통해 전시회사와 방문객이 소통한다. 이처럼 언택트 서비스를 제공하는 모바일 앱들은 불필요한 말을 하거나 사람을 마주하지 않고도 관객들이 자신의 스케쥴이나 취향에 맞추어 원하는 시간에 서비스를 편리하게 이용할 수 있다는 점에서 활용된다. 본 기술개발 활동은 이러한 사회적 활동의 접근성을 극대화시키며, 정확한 통역을 자동음성 및 텍스트로 제공함으로써, 외국 방문객들의 편리함과 지역사회 동화를 도모할 수 있다.

Purpose: This study was to explore situations that might put the middle-aged Korean-Chinese female migrant workers at risk for work-related musculoskeletal diseases (WMSDs). At the development phase of a continuing health project, the study aimed to clarify health promotion program needs of the migrant population. Methods: A qualitative description research design was used with three focus groups of 23 Korean-Chinese female migrant workers. Each focus group interview was conducted for 70-minutes using semi-structured interview guidelines. The data were analyzed using directed qualitative content analysis techniques. Results: The majority of the participants were household workers and their work included heavy material handling, standing for a long time, and working in awkward postures. They experienced discrimination from employers, lack of control at work, limitations in open-communication, job insecurity, and acculturation. They had needs to have health promotion programs for preventing and managing chronic diseases, depression and menopause as well as WMSDs. Conclusion: The participants were situated in work environments with physical demanding tasks, acculturative and job-related stress and lack of opportunities to participate in health promotion programs. It is suggested to develop a comprehensive program to better meet the needs of middle-aged Korean-Chinese female migrant workers rather than targeting the reduction of WMSDs.

Purpose: This qualitative study aimed to develop a substantive theory of the process of adaptation to motherhood in Central Asian-Korean immigrants to Korea. Methods: Individual, in-depth interviews were conducted from July to September 2017, with 18 women who emigrated of Korean ethnicity from Central Asia to Korea, and took care of their baby for at least a year after their first delivery in Korea. The interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. Data from the transcriptions were analyzed through Strauss and Corbin's grounded theory method, and data analysis was conducted simultaneously with data collection. Results: As a result of categorizing the interview data through the process of open coding, 10 categories, with 31 subcategories and 102 concepts were drawn, and "growth as a Central Asian-Korean mother in an unfamiliar, historical hometown" was found to be the core category of the process of adaptation to motherhood in Central Asian-Korean immigrants to Korea. Conclusion: A characteristic of the process of adaptation to motherhood in Central Asian-Korean immigrants to Korea, drawn from this study, is that it differs according to the level of initiative to carry out interaction strategies, and the use of various supportive social resources. The findings indicate the need for Medicare eligibility adjustment for antenatal care, the extension of the visa renewal period during childbirth, the development of web- or mobile application-based educational programs in Russian language, and the establishment of integrated visiting healthcare services, community service resources, and policy support to enable these women to utilize various supportive social resources.

최근 우리나라는 국제결혼이 증가함에 따라 다문화 여성 인구가 늘어나고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 구강관리 프로그램을 통하여 다문화 여성의 구강 건강 상태를 추적 조사함으로써 구강건강 상태를 파악하여 개선점 및 이와 관련되는 요인들을 조사하여 향후 다문화가족의 구강관리 프로그램을 구축하는데 도움이 되고자 하였다. 연구 대상자는 대구광역시 다문화 가족 센터에서 모집하여, 1년 동안 지역의 치과 병.의원과 연계하여 필요한 치료를 받도록 하였다. 전체 참가자 608명 중에서 1년간 추적조사 한 표본은 40명이었다. 면접조사로 사회 경제적 수준과 구강 상태에 관한 일반적인 특성에 대하여 알아보았고, 구강 검사를 실시하여 치아우식증과 치주 건강 상태를 알아보았다. 통계 분석은 SPSS 20.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 구강관리 프로그램의 전과 후 결과를 비교 하였을 때, 1년 동안 DMFS, DS, FS, DT, FT 및 CPI가 유의하게 감소하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 다문화 여성 및 가족에 대한 관심과 구강건강 증진을 위한 기초 자료로 이용되기를 기대한다.
