  • 본 연구는 취업을 앞둔 대학생들이 건강관리를 하는데 있어 건강정보를 어떻게 접근하여 획득하느냐에 따라서 건강행태 개선이 얼마나 이루어지는지 파악하고 건강행태 개선을 실현하는데 있어서 효과적으로 할 수 있도록 제언을 함에 그 목적이 있다. 경북의 일개 대학의 224명을 최종분석 대상자로 선정하였다. TV의 건강 관련 방송과 건강 관련 서적보다 인터넷 검색에 대한 분석결과가 유의미하였으며, 학년이 높아질수록 B=.103(p=.007), 건강정보 접근빈도가 많아질수록 B=.137(p=.008), 기존의 건강행태 점수가 높을수록 B=.431(p=.000)만큼 건강행태 개선의 점수가 증가하였다. 인터넷이 건강정보 검색에 있어 가장 인기가 있었는데 원하는 정보를 즉시 탐색하여 비교적 금방 얻어낼 수 있는 점이 주된 요인으로 보인다. TV의 건강 관련 방송은 건강전문가 등이 출현하여 건강정보를 알려주므로 질적인 측면에서는 인터넷 건강정보보다 우수하나 맞춤식으로 방송을 보기에는 어느 정도 무리가 있으나 건강 관련 서적과 방송은 인터넷에서 다시보기 및 e-book으로 전환되는 점에서 인터넷 건강정보와 구분이 모호해지는 면이 있다.

  • Background: After the first case of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in January 2020, Korea has experienced three waves in 2020. This study aimed to analyze changes in health care utilization according to the period of the 1st to 3rd waves of the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: We analyzed 3,354,469,401 national health insurance claims from 59,104 medical facilities between 2017 and 2020. Observed-to-expected ratios (O:E ratio) with data from 2017 to 2019 as expected values and data from 2020 as observed values were obtained to analyze changes in medical utilization. T-test was used to test whether the difference of observed and expected values was statistically significant. Results: In 2020, the O:E ratio was 0.894, indicating a decrease in health care utilization overall during the pandemic. The O:E ratio of the 1st wave was 0.832, which was lower than those of the second (0.886) and third (0.873) waves. Health care utilization decreased relatively more among outpatient, women, children and adolescents, and health insurance patients. And health care utilization decreased more in small medical facilities and in Daegu and Gyeongbuk during the first wave. During the pandemic, the O:E ratios of respiratory diseases were 0.486-0.694, while chronic diseases and mental diseases were more than 1.0. Conclusion: Health care utilization decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic overall, and there were differences by COVID-19 waves, and by the characteristics of patients and medical facilities. It is necessary to understand the cause of changes in health care utilization in order to cope with the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.
