Abstract

본 연구는 요양시설에 입소하여 생활하고 있는 노인들을 대상으로 ADL과 IADL을 측정하고 그에 관련된 요인을 검토하고자 실시하였다. 조사대상은 장기요양시설에 입소하여 장기요양급여를 받고 있는 노인 205명으로 하였으며, 조사는 2015년 6월 1일부터 7월 31일까지의 기간 동안에 면접조사를 통해 이루어 졌다. 연구결과, 전체 조사대상자의 ADL 수준은 $16.67{\pm}2.11$ 점(총득점 합계 범위: 6~18점)이었으며, IADL 수준은 $15.13{\pm}3.79$ 점(총득점 합계 범위: 7~21점)이었다. ADL에 관련된 요인으로는 배우자 유무, 외출 빈도, 주관적인 건강상태, 치아의 부자유 유무가 선정되었으며, IADL에 관련된 요인으로는 성별, 배우자 유무, 외출 빈도, 주관적인 건강상태, 신체의 부자유 유무, 건망증 유무가 선정되었다. 위와 같은 결과는 요양시설 입소 노인들의 신체적 기능은 인구사회학적 특성, 건강관련행위 및 건강상태 등 여러 요인들이 관련되어 있음을 시사한다. This study examined the levels of ADL and IADL among elderly people who were institutionalized in long-term care facilities and determined their association with socio-demographic characteristics, health status, and health related behaviors. Interviews were performed, during the period from June 1 to July 31, 2015, to 205 elderlies received from long-term care service. As a results, the total mean score was $16.67{\pm}2.11$ for ADL (range: 6~8) and $15.13{\pm}3.79$ for IADL (range: 7~21). The selected factors associated with ADL were with or without a spouse, frequency of going out, subjective health status, and mastication ability. The factors associated with ADL were selected, such as gender, with or without a spouse, frequency of going out, subjective health status, disability of body, and amnesia. In conclusion, the level of ADL and IADL in the elderly people selected from long-term care insurance were influenced by the socio-demographic characteristics, health status and health-related behaviors.
