The purpose of this study was to investigate spirometric lung pattern, respiratory function and degree of fatigue by lung function tests and fatigue tests of 39 elderly people in a care facility aged 65 and over. The respiratory function tests were used to the Spirovit SP-1 and fatigue tests were used modified Piper fatigue scale(mPFS). Regarding the respiratory function, the FVC was $1.41{\pm}0.36$l, the FVC % predicted was $69.10{\pm}14.98$%, the $FEV_1$ was $1.02{\pm}0.31$l, the $FEV_1$ % predicted was $63.27{\pm}16.05$%, the $FEV_1$/FVC was $72.77{\pm}13.40$%, and the fatigue score was $5.83{\pm}1.09$. As for the spirometric lung pattern, 19 patients had a restrictive pattern(48.7%), followed by 11 with a mixed pattern(28.2%), 5 with an obstructive pattern( 12.8%), and 4 with a normal pattern(10.3%). Regarding the respiratory function and fatigue by spirometric lung pattern, the FVC and the FVC % predicted of patients with a normal pattern or an obstructive pattern were greater than other groups at a statistically significant level. As for the $FEV_1$, that of patients with a normal pattern was significantly higher than others, and for the $FEV_1$ % predicted, that of patients with a normal pattern or a restrictive pattern was significantly higher(p<.001). Fatigue score by patients with a normal pattern was significantly less than patients of other patterns(p<.001). Therefore, pulmonary physical therapy is considered necessary to improve respiratory function and fatigue degradation of elderly in a facility.

본 연구는 요양시설 노인의 사회적 지지와 우울수준과의 관련성을 규명하고자 시도하였다. 조사대상은 D광역시에 소재하고 있는 15개소의 요양시설에 입소하고 있는 65세 이상 노인 328명을 대상으로 하였으며, 자료 수집은 2018년 3월 1일부터 5월 31일까지의 기간 동안에 조사원이 조사대상 요양시설을 직접 방문하여 면접조사에 의하였다. 연구 결과, 조사대상자에서의 우울군의 분포는 사회적지지 점수가 낮은 군일수록 유의하게 높았으며, 우울수준 점수(CES-D)는 사회적지지 점수와 유의한 음의 상관관계를 보였다. 로지스틱 회귀분석 결과, 우울군에 속할 위험비는 사회적지지 점수가 가장 높은 군(Q4)보다 높은 군(Q3)에서 2.7배, 중간 군(Q2)에서 5.4배, 낮은 군(Q1)에서 10.1배 유의하게 증가하였다. 다중회귀분석 결과, 우울수준에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 종교유무, 자녀와의 관계, 주관적 건강상태, 신체의 부자유유무, 흡연상태, 아침식사여부 및 사회적지지가 유의한 변수로 선정되었으며, 투입된 변수들의 설명력은 41.1%이었다. 위와 같은 연구결과는 요양시설 노인의 우울수준은 사회적 지지와 유의한 관련성이 있음을 시사하고 있다.

본 연구는 노인장기요양보험 인정자 중에서 사망한 자의 임종 관련 의료비를 분석함으로써, 향후 임종 관련 의료비의 효율적 관리방안과 양질의 임종관리 제공방안을 모색하는데 목적이 있다. 본 연구에서 활용한 자료는 건강보험 및 노인장기요양보험 급여이용자료, 통계청 사망원인 통계자료이며, 2008년 7월 1일부터 2012년 12월 31일까지 장기요양 인정등급을 받고 같은 기간 내 사망한 자 총 271,474명을 최종 분석대상자로 하였다. 연구결과 대상자는 여성(60.6%), 75세 이상(74.7%)이 다수를 차지했고, 대부분이 2개 이상의 질환을 보유하고 있었으며, 특히 고혈압(44.3%), 치매(42.3%), 뇌졸중(29.9%) 등 비율이 높았다. 사망원인은 순환기계질환(29.8%), 암(15.3%), 선천성 기형, 변형 및 염색체 이상(14.7%) 등의 순이었고, 사망장소로는 의료기관(64.4%), 자택(22.0%), 사회복지시설(9.2%) 순이었다. 대상자의 등급인정 이후 사망까지 소요시간은 평균 516.2일이었고, 대상자 중 99.3%는 사망 전 1년간 건강보험 또는 장기요양보험 급여를 이용하였다. 특히, 1인당 평균 총 급여비는 사망한 달에 가까워질수록 규모가 커져, 사망 전 12개월 보다 사망 전 1개월에 3배 이상 높아졌다. 또한, 사망 전 1개월간 대상자의 31.8%는 연명치료 범위에 해당하는 치료를 받은 것으로 나타났다. 향후 장기요양 인정자의 임종 관련 불필요한 의료이용 감소 및 효율적 의료관리를 위해 건강보험과 장기요양보험 급여의 통합적 임종관리 전달체계 확립과 호스피스 등 임종케어의 적극적 도입을 제안한다.

This study is about major symptoms of elderly and medical services for elderly in long-tenn care facilities. The subject of this study was 298 patients over 00 years old staying in two geriatric hospitals and two nursing homes. The symptoms and medical services were level of patient classification from RUG(Resource Utilization Group)-III which is applied for both Medicare and Medicaid for skilled nursing facilities reimbursement system in US and designed for measuring patient characteristics and medical staff time. This classification is explained by each patient resource(staff time) utilization level which is called CMI(Case-Mix Index). In this study, the symptoms and services were compared by facility type and they were categorized by level and compared by CMI. Major findings are as follows; 1. There were more elderly who have cognitive function problems in nursing homes than patients in geriatric hospitals. There were more patients with behavioral problems in geriatric hospitals than residents in nursing homes. These results were both statistically significant. 2. The patients in geriatric hospitals received significantly more nursing rehabilitation services, rehabilitation services and extensive services than residents in nursing homes. Other hands, special care services were provided significantly more to residents in nursing homes than elderly in geriatric hospitals. 3. ADL and depression variables had higher CMI when the symptoms were heavier condition. The CMI were not matched with levels of cognitive function problems and behavioral problems. 4. The CMI matched well significantly with levels of nursing rehabilitation services, special care services, and clinically complex services provided for the patient in geriatric hospitals and only nursing rehabilitation services in nursing homes. The CMI for rehabilitation services level and extensive services had regular trends. From the result of this study, the resource utilization level and services provided for elderly in each long-term care facilities were figured out. For the further study, it needs to have more concern about RUG-ill which classification variables were just analyzed.

오늘날 의료가 단지 치료라는 개념을 넘어 서비스라는 인식이 확대되면서 의료서비스 소비 주체인 이용자들이 인식하는 의료서비스 질의 중요성은 날로 강조되고 있으며, 일차의료라고 해서 예외는 아니다. 이 연구는 65세이상 노인들이 보건소에서 제공하는 의료서비스의 질을 어떻게 인식하고 있는지 파악하고, 어떠한 요인들이 의료서비스 이용량과 관련성이 있는지를 탐색하고자 하였다. 이 연구는 서울시 보건소를 이용하는 노인들을 대상으로 연구원이 면접조사를 통하여 자료를 수집하였고, 총 307명의 설문자료를 분석하였다. 의료서비스 질은 융합적 요소를 고려하여 접근하였으며, 분석 결과, 이들의 구성항목 중에서 이용시설 및 환경, 환자중심진료, 의사의 전문적 지식 및 기술수준, 그리고 직원 및 간호사의 정서적 지지에 대하여 노인들이 긍정적으로 인식할수록 보건소의 의료이용이 증가하였다. 따라서 보건소가 쾌적하고 편리한 시설환경을 갖추고, 직원 및 간호사들은 이용자들과 원활한 의사소통을 위해 노력하며, 동시에 의사가 환자중심의 전문적인 의료서비스를 제공한다면 보건소의 의료서비스 질과 가치 향상에 도움이 될 것이다.

In order to estimate the utilization pattern of a rural health subcenter, and to identify the recognition for it among the inhabitants in Kogsung district, a questionnaire survey was carried out for objects of 708 population. The results observed were as follows; 1. The annual utilization rate of a rural health subcenter for a basic health service unit was 27.5 per 100 persons, and annual mean visiting times was 1.43 times. 2. The most frequent disease by, annual health subcenter utilization illness was respiratory disease(26.5%), and the next was musculoskeletal disease(23.9%), gastrointestinal disease(15.9%) by order. 3. Favorite reasons for community health subcenter utilization were lower medical cost(23.4%), near distance from living place(20.7%) and lower disease severity(19.5%) by order. But disfavorite reasons for it were non effective treatment(26.2%), insufficient equipment(25.4%) and absence of specialist(17.4%) by order. 4. Insufficient items about community health subcenter utilization were restriction of treatment limit(47.1%), lower reliance(22.4%) and not punctral(21.8%) by order. 5. The results of logistic regression analysis suggested that statistically significant factors in health subcenter utilization were age, educational level and the nearest medical facility class. 6. There was no difference between recognition for a community health subcenter's work and actual utilizing service, and desirable works for it were disease preventing service, disease control of elderly and sanitation control by order. These results suggested that to increase the utilization of rural health subcenter and to promote the accessibility of rural residents to primary health care, there must be considered public relation about health subcenter, expansion of health equipment and recognition about access time.
