  • 본 연구의 목적은 독거노인의 자살생각에 영향을 주는 요인을 규명하여 자살예방을 위한 프로그램 개발과 수행에 필요한 기초자료로 활용되도록 하기 위하여 시행 되였다. 본 연구는 2017년 제4차 노인실태조사 자료를 활용한 이차분석 연구이며 2017년 현재 전국 17개 시·도의 일반 주거시설에 거주하는 65세 이상의 노인 10,299명의 자료를 활용하여 로지스틱 회귀분석을 시행하였다. 분석결과 독거노인 10.5%가 자살에 대해 생각해 보았고 성별, 나이, 만성질환 수, 우울증, 차별경험에서 자살생각 정도가 유의하게 차이를 나타냈다. 따라서 독거노인의 자살예방을 위해서 만성질환자에 대한 지속적인 관리와 우울증환자의 조기발견 및 다양한 사회활동 프로그램에 참여할 수 있도록 공공· 민간영역 모두 관심과 적극적인 관리가 필요하다.

  • Three hundred sixty-two(male 131, female 231) elderly aged over 65 in Chungb- uk area were interviewed to determine the disease states and drug usage patterns. The prebalence of disease was 78% and women reported more chronic diseases(83%) than men(71%). Elderly who live with spouse and have an occupation have a lower rate of disease. Average number of diseases of the elderly was $1.8\pm{1.1}$, and women$(2.1\pm{1.3)}$ have significantly higher average number of diseases than that of men$(1.4\pm{0.7)}$. Also the elderly in urban areas$(2.1\pm{1.4)}$ have significantly higher number of diseases than that of the elderly in rural areas$(1.6\pm{0.9)}$. Arthritis, hypertension, cardiovascular and gastric diseases were the most frequently listed chronic diseases in order for both men and women. Anemia and fracture of bone were relatively higher in women than in men. Particularly, the arthritis of the urban elderly have a rate of 1.5 times higher than that of the rural elderly. Fifty-two percent of the elderly were currently using drugs ; among drug users 71.2% used prescription drugs and 20.5% used nonprescription drugs. The average number taken per person was 2.1$\pm$1.4 and there was no sex or age difference. However, the elderly in rural areas $(2.7\pm{1.7)}$ consumed a significantly higher number of drugs than those in urban areas$(1.7\pm{0.7)}$. The average number of prescripti- on drugs taken was 2.0$\pm$1.4 while the average of nonprescription drugs taken was $(1.3\pm{0.6)}$. Analgesics and antihypertensive drugs were most commonly used. Vitamin and analgesics were the most frequently used self-prescribed drugs. It was noted that potential adverse drug interaction by concominant drug consumption for arthritis and antihypensive drug, abuse of digestants and antiacid without treatment of the underlying disease, and misuse of quick-acting bowel medications were problematic for the elderly. In addition drugs used for the elderly have some adverse effect on the digestive system. The types and composition of drugs used by the elderly were identified and presented. Medication compliance was poor and 13.5% reported adverse reactions such as edema, heartburn, nausea, and difficulty with eating. Seventeen percent of the elderly obtained drugs arranged by those other than medical staff. Also, even among those elderly who obtained drugs prescribed by a doctor, 69.1% of subjects had not receive instruction about potential adverse reactions. These results suggest that nutritional problems related to drug usage might exist and so dietitians, either individually or as members of health teams, need to have a better understanding of drug-nutrient interaction and closer supervision, and drug information/education service should therefore be provided to prevent or minimize adverse drug reaction in elderly users of medication.

  • 섬망은 자연적으로 발생하는 상태는 아니며 더욱이 내인성 질환은 아니다. 그러나, 섬망은 일부 특정인구 집단에서 발생하는 데, 노인 또는 내과적 상태가 악화된 환자들에서 흔히 발생된다. 이것은 체계적인 섬망역학 연구의 제한점으로 작용한다. 일반 인구 집단에서는 그 발생이 상대적으로 적기 때문에 섬망에 대한 많은 역학 연구들은 노인에 집중되었다. 그리고, 연구에 사용된 섬망 평가도구들의 민감도와 특이도도 매우 다양하다. 노령, 남자, 불량한 인지 및 기능 상태, 그리고 알코올 남용이 잘 알려진 섬망의 위험 인자들이다. 저자는 노인, 치매 환자, 고관적 골절 환자, 중환자실 입원 환자, 말기 암 환자, 그리고 뇌졸중 환자에서의 섬마의 역학에 대하여 다루게 될 것이다.

  • In this study, the characteristics and patterns of family problems were explored. What constituted family problems, and how those evolved over the period of drastic changes in the Korean society were examined, by analyzing articles published from the 1940s to the 1980s in the four major national newspapers in Korea. A total of 6542 articles related to family problems in the four newspapers, Chosun, Dong-A, Kyunghyang, and Seoul, were used for the content analysis of this study. The main categories of family problems were classified as poverty, marital issues, issues related to children and adolescents, elderly issues, problems in the family as an institution, and the so-called family-lag problem. Each of these categories consisted of several subcategories: The poverty-related problems included the problems caused by difficulty in making a living and instability of living, for example. The marital issues category consisted of conflicts between the couple, unfaithful spouses, domestic violence, divorce, and so on. Issues related to children and adolescents included juvenile delinquency, difficulty in bringing up children, child abuse, single motherhood, and underage household heads, for example. The elderly issues included the anxiety over the aging society, support for the elderly, conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, alienation of the elderly, etc. Problems in the family as an institution consisted of the legal issues in such areas as marriage, succession of the family head, and adoption. Lastly, the family-lag problem included confusion over family values, and conflict caused by the inconsistency between consciousness and actual behavior related to the family or family crisis. From the 1940s to the 1980s, family-lag was the most common problem (26.2% of the total articles), followed by issues related to children and adolescents (23.1%), poverty (16.2%), marital issues (15.9%), elderly issues (12.4%), and problems in the family as an institution (6.0%). During the 1940s and the 1950s, poverty was a prominent problem, and in the 1960s, issues related to children and adolescents were most commonly addressed in the articles. In the 1970s and the 1980s, the family-lag problem was the most frequently addressed.

  • Aging society and aged society are determined by the component ratio of the elderly to the whole population; aging society is defined as a society whose ratio of the elderly population is less than 7%, and it is called aged society when the ratio is over 14%. Korea's aging process is so fast and unprecedented over the world according to many statistical data and investigations. The purpose of this study was to provide guidance and basic data to educate the elderly for the proper use of medication and health functional food. This study was carried out on 80 subjects of age 65 or older in Cheong Jusi in Choogncheongbuk-do. They answered questionnaire that was prepared for this study. The data were collected from August 4, 2008 to August 18, 2008. The collected data were analyzed by using the SPSS 12.0OK (for window) program and Microsoft EXCEL. The following is a summary of the results of this study. First, in the aspect of purchasing, the majority of respondents bought OTC drugs and health functional food for health and illness prevention. Purchasing places of drugs were diverse. Second, in the aspect of taking drugs, the older answerers were, the higher the number of drugs being taken was. Third, in the aspect of proper storage of drugs, most respondents have no specific spaces. Finally, regarding recognition of drug abuse and disposal, most people have little awareness or have no idea.

  • The research is to identify social networks of problems that have an influence on the quality of ageing people's lives by using social network analysis, based on the premise that there are differences in networks of ageing problems in urban and rural areas. From analyzing network of ageing people's problems using NodeXL, vertices in the networks of both urban and rural areas are well-connected. For urban areas, financial poverty is the core problem related to the quality of life. It has direct connections with illness and health, family responsibility, housing, role loss in community, and employment, which have positive or negative interactions with the quality of older people's lives. For rural areas, on the other hand, role loss in community is the major problem. It has direct connections with the elderly abuse, financial poverty, leisure activity, divorce, isolation and loneliness from society, education, and suicide. As a result, the research shows that the problems of ageing people have strong linkages and interactive effects with a structure of network, and the networks are different depending on types of places for living.
