본 연구는 심뇌혈관질환 고위험군 교육프로그램 개발을 위해 대구광역시 심뇌혈관질환 고위험군 등록관리 시범사업단 교육정보센터 방문한 65세 이상 고혈압?당뇨병 환자(고위험군)와 교육자를 대상으로 교육목적, 교육과정구성, 교육방법, 교육내용에 대하여 고위험군과 교육자의 교육필요도와 지식 정도 등의 교육요구도를 조사하였고, 교육내용 영역 및 내용에 대해서는 필요도와 고위험군 및 교육자가 평가한 고위험군의 지식 정도를 비교하였다. 연구대상자는 2009년 6월부터 8월까지 4개 교육정보센터 자조모임에 참석한 고위험군 60명과 교육정보센터 44명의 교육자를 대상으로 실시하였다. 가장 선호하는 형태는 소그룹(5-9명)교육, 교육 시간은 30분-1시간, 교육구성은 이론 50%와 실습 50%. 교육이수완료기간은 3개월로 응답하였다. 교육내용에 대한 필요도는 고위험군과 교육자 모두 평균 이상으로 응답하여 본 연구에서 제시한 모든 교육내용을 포함하는 것을 반영할 수 있었다. 고위험군과 교육자의 교육필요도와 지식 정도평가에 따라 교육프로그램 개발 및 교육방향을 제시하면 다음과 같다. 첫째 범주로 고위험군의 교육필요도와 지식 정도 점수 간에 차이가 없는 항목들로 대부분 기본교육과정으로, 잘 인지하고 있는 편이므로 표준화된 교육방법을 지속적으로 운영하면 될 것으로 생각된다. 둘째 범주로 고위험군의 지식 정도가 낮은 교육내용에 대해서는 기본교육과정에 포함시키고 효과적인 실습으로 모든 단계에서 반복할 수 있도록 한다. 셋째 범주로 고위험군의 지식 정도에 개인편차가 큰 항목들은 집단교육이나 소그룹교육보다 개별교육과정에 포함시켜 개별 교육 시 개인의 문제를 해결할 수 있는 기술향상을 목적으로 이루어질 수 있도록 한다. 넷째 범주로 고위험군의 지식 정도 점수와 교육자가 평가한 고위험군의 지식 정도 점수 간에 차이가 있는 항목들은 고위험군이 직접 참여할 수 있는 심화교육의 형태로 하며, 교육방법, 교육환경에 대한 표준화와 구체적인 매뉴얼을 제시하고 관리 목표를 설정하여야 할 것이다. 다섯째 범주로 고위험군과 교육자간 교육의 필요성에 대해 유의한 차이가 있는 항목들은 교육 시 이들 항목의 필요성을 강조하여야 할 것이다. 이상의 내용을 반영하고, 자가관리기술을 향상 시킬 수 있는 요소들을 추가하면 체계적인 교육 프로그램을 개발하는데 도움이 될 수 있을 것이다.

This study is to research the use and the demand of the elderly generation that pursue economic ability and active lifestyle. The composition of the meals were "homemade meals" 65.3%, "homemade & convenience meals" 26.7% overall. For the "never miss a meal" category, 70-74 years old was 48.3%, over 80 years old was 60.0%. The elderly under 70 years old showed a high frequency in the use of alternative meals (p < 0.05) and the elderly with higher education used the alternative meals more frequently (p < 0.01). The rice-cakes, bread, tuna cans, Korean side-dishes, beverages, meat, cup-noodles and seafood as alternative meals are in the order of most frequency. Also, 96.0%, 59.0% and 46.5% of the elderly had experience in using "Ready to eat (RTE)", "Ready to heat (RTH)" and "Ready to cook (RTC)". The oldest group surveyed, the elderly at the age of 80 years old and above showed lower preference for "completely cooked state" but showed highest results in the "half-cooked state". This shows the difference between people's perception and the behavior that showed high frequency of 96.0% in the experience with "RTE". This can be inferred that the elderly needs the development of convenience food that is moderately packaged according to the newer lifestyle where the elderly live independent from their children. Moreover, there is a higher demand in the healthy convenience food, which means that there is a need for development in the quality of the convenience food that will allow more faith in convenience food by the elderly.
