Purpose : This study examined the relationship between oral health management behavior and subjective health perception by using a tool that measures health-related quality of life named EQ-5D. The findings are expected to provide fundamental data for developing diverse programs, including health- and oral-health-related educational media, to ultimately enhance people's health-related quality of life. Methods : Adults over the age of 20 were extracted from the raw materials of the 8th national health and nutrition examination survey conducted in 2019. Among them, 4034 were finally chosen as the study subjects after checking the response distribution of relevant questions and excluding inadequate samples. Variables included general characteristics, health management behavior, oral health management behavior, subjective health perception, and EQ-5D level. Cross-tabulation test, independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance, and linear regression analysis were conducted using SPSS 25.0. Results : EQ-5D, which measures the level of health-related quality of life, was high when the subjects had a medical check-up experience, no experience of unsatisfactory medical service, and did not get an influenza vaccination (p<.001). The quality of life was higher when the subjects received dental inspections, did not require treatment, and used oral care goods (p<.005). Health-related quality of life was also higher when the subjective health level and subjective oral health level were high. Conclusion : Results indicate that subjective health, oral health perception level, and quality of life together were high when people had a regular check-up, did not neglect treatment, and used oral care goods. Considering the findings of this study, check-up programs that are customized for each age group are necessary. Health-related quality of life could be enhanced through the provision of diverse medical services and active efforts to prevent any medical blind spot.

This study was conducted to assess improvements in nutritional status following the application of nutrition education to elderly patients in a long-term care hospital. The study was carried out from January to May 2009, during which a preliminary survey, a pretest, the application of nutrition education, and a post-test were applied in stages. The number of subjects at pretest was 81, and the number of participants included in the final analysis was 61 (18 men, 43 women), all of whom participated in both the nutrition education program and the post-test. The survey consisted of general demographic items, health behaviors, dietary behaviors, the Nutrition Screening Initiative checklist, and nutrient intake assessment (24 hour recall method). The nutrition education program lasted for four weeks. It included a basic education program, provided once a week, and mini-education program, which was offered daily during lunch times. The survey was conducted before and after the education program using the same assessment method, although some items were included only at pretest. When analyzing the changes in elderly patients after the nutritional education program, we found that, among subjective dietary behaviors, self-rated perceptions of health (P<0.001) and of depression (P<0.001) improved significantly and that dietary behavior scores also improved significantly (P<0.001), while nutritional risk levels decreased. In terms of nutrient intake, subjects' intake of energy, protein, fat, carbohydrate, calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin A, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and vitamin C all increased significantly (P<0.001). These results indicated that nutritional education is effective in improving the nutritional status of elderly patients. We hope that the results of this study can be used as preliminary data for establishing guidelines for nutrition management tailored to elderly patients in long-term care hospitals.

Background : In order to improve the quality of life of dying patients, they need to receive not only the physical, psychological, social, and spiritual care, but also systematic and continuous care to die with dignity. However, no adequate medical services are available for these terminal cancer patients. We studied their behavior patterns of health care utilization to understand more of their medical and social needs. Methods : We investigated 108 bereaved families through the telephone interview with structured questionnaires. They were randomly selected through the retrospective chart review of the terminal patients who passed away due to cancer. Results : Most of the terminal cancer patients received their care from proper medical services including admission to hospital (45.4%), outpatient clinic (22.2%), emergency room (16.7%), and oriental medicine (12.0%). But during the terminal phase of their illness, 32.4% of patients never received medical care including oriental medicine, and 28.7% received alterative natural care. 26 bereaved families (24.1%) pointed out the indifference of medical staff as a problem receiving proper hospital care, and 22 (20.4%) emphasized emotional strain of their helplessness with the patients' suffering as a problem of caring at home. Over 90% suggested availability of continuous care, hospice care, home care, and 24 hour telephone service to be improved. Conclusions : Due to various reasons, adequate medical care is not delivered to the terminal cancer patients in our present medical system. These problems can be approached with the establishment of proper education and medical delivery system. The role of comprehensive medical specialty cannot be overly emphasized to accomplish this most effectively.

본 연구는 유아교사와 어머니들의 구강건강지식, 유아구강건강관리행동, 그리고 구강건강교육에 대한 인식 차를 알아보고자 충북 Y군 유아교사 90명과 어머니 235명을 대상으로 설문조사를 하였으며, SPSS Windows ver. 12.0 (SPSS Inc.)을 이용하여 분석한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 유아교사들과 어머니들의 구강건강지식정도는 차이가 없었다. 2. 유아교사들은 어머니들에 비해 보다 바람직한 치아우식예방 행동, 칫솔관리행동, 구강위생행동 지도를 하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 41%의 어머니들은 유아교육 및 보육 기관에서 실시하는 구강정기검진과 이후의 처치서비스에 대해 무관심하거나 인지하지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 어머니들은 유아교사들에 비해 구강건강에 대한 관심이 높으나, 유아교사들에 비해 구강건강교육에 대한 경험이 적었다. 어머니들은 유아들의 구강건강관리에 대한 내용으로 구강건강교육을 받기를 원하였고, 유아교사들은 구강건강교육을 위한 지침서와 매체에 대한 구강건강교육을 받기를 원하는 것으로 나타났다. 유아교육 및 보육기관과 가정에서 일관되게 유아를 위해 양질의 구강건강관리를 위해서는 유아교사와 어머니들 모두에게 구강보건교육에 대한 인식을 높이고, 유아구강건강 관리행동의 이행을 위해 올바른 구강건강지식을 전달하고 그들이 부족하다고 생각되는 영역에 대한 내용의 유아구강 보건교육 프로그램 개발이 요구되며, 또한 이들이 이런 프로그램을 손쉽게 접할 수 있는 교육방법 및 매체의 개발도 필요하다고 사료된다.
