Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the rate of intention and registration of organ donation and to find their associated factors among some medical and nursing students. The study subjects were 629 students who majored in the medicine and nursing in medical school. The data were collected from self-administerd questionnaire composed of intention and registration of organ donation and scales of knowledge and attitude toward organ donation. As a result, the rates of intention and registration of organ donation were 72.1% and 12.5%, respectively. The associated factors with the intention of organ donation were sex, judging the brain death as a death, attitude for organ donation. The associated factors with the registration of organ donation were major, knowledge scores and attitude scores of organ donation.

인터넷 시대를 맞이하여 의학과/간호학과 전공 학생을 대상으로 장기기증에 대한 의향과 등록 여부에 대해 알아보고, 이들과 관련이 있는 요인을 파악하고자 하였다. 광주지역 사립 의학전문대학원/의과대학에 재학 중인 의학과/간호학과 학생 629명을 대상으로 장기기증에 대한 의향과 등록 여부, 장기기증에 대한 지식과 태도 등에 대해 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 자료수집하였다. 연구결과, 장기기증에 대한 의향은 72.1%가 있었고, 장기기증을 등록한 경우는 12.5%였다. 장기기증에 대한 지식점수는 $6.1{\pm}2.7$점으로 38%의 정답률을 보였고, 장기기증에 대한 태도점수는 $63.2{\pm}7.0$점이었다. 장기기증 의향에 대한 교차비는 여학생, 뇌사를 사망으로 인정하는 경우, 장기기증에 대한 태도 점수가 높을수록 통계적으로 유의하게 높았다. 또한, 장기기증을 위한 등록과는 의학전공, 장기기증에 대한 지식과 태도 점수가 높을수록 장기기증을 위한 등록에 대한 교차비가 통계적으로 유의하게 증가하였다.
