Abstract

This study examined the associations among the factors related to self-care behavior in patients with liver cirrhosis, focusing on disease knowledge and family support. The subjects were 120 liver cirrhosis patients recruited from the medical out-patient clinic of ageneral hospital in the U metropolitan city during the period of June-August, 2015. The data were analyzed with SPSS(Version 21) program. The results showed that the average scores of disease knowledge was $12.64{\pm}2.16$ out of 18; family support was $23.28{\pm}5.68$ out of 32; and self-care behavior was $35.66{\pm}8.67$ out of 60. The study subjects had moderate levels of disease knowledge and family support, but low levels of self-care behavior. The data showedthat self-care behavior was positively correlated with disease knowledge (r=0.675, p<0.001) and family support (r=0.804, p<0.001) of the subjects. The best predictors for self-care behavior were family support, disease knowledge, frequency of alcohol consumption per week, having liver cirrhosis patients among family or relatives, and educational level, which accounted for 69.7% of the variance. In conclusion, promoting the self-care behavior of liver cirrhosis patients should be planned based on a consideration of the patient's educational level, knowledge of their own disease, and family support.

본 연구의 목적은 간경변증 환자의 자가간호 행동 관련 요인, 특히 질병지식과 가족지지와의 관련성에 대해 조사하기 위함이었다. 연구대상자는 2015년 6월부터 8월까지 2개월 동안 U 광역시 1개 종합병원 내과 외래를 이용하는 120 명의 간경변증 환자를 대상으로 조사하였다. 자료는 SPSS (Version 21) 통계 프로그램을 사용하여 분석하였다. 그 결과, 대상자의 간경변증에 대한 질병 지식 점수는 18점 만점에 평균 $12.64{\pm}2.16$점이었고, 가족 지지는 32점 만점에 평균 $23.28{\pm}5.68$, 자가간호 행동은 60점 만점에 평균 $35.66{\pm}8.67$점이었다. 즉, 대상자들은 질병에 관한 지식과 가족지지 정도는 보통수준이었으나 자가간호 행동은 낮았다. 또한 간경변증 환자의 자가간호 행동은 질병지식 (r=.675, p<.001)과 가족지지(r=.804, p<.001)와 긍정적 상관관계가 있었다, 자가간호 행동의 가장 좋은 예측요인으로는 가족지지, 질병 지식, 음주회수, 친지 중 간경변증이 있는 경우, 대상자의 교육 수준이었으며, 이들 요인들이 자가간호 행동을 69.7% 설명하였다. 결론적으로 간경변증 환자의 자가간호 행동을 향상시키기 위해서는 대상자의 교육수준, 질병지식 수준과 가족지지 수준을 고려하여 계획하여야 할 것이다.
