Abstract

The aim of this pilot survey was to investigate the presence status, usage problems, and improvement needs of the upper extremity rehabilitation equipment(: UERE) in the department of occupational therapy(: OT) of hospital setting in Korea. The authors received a questionnaires of clinicians working in a department of OT hospital setting through a social network service. Responses of 72 were analyzed in the first questionnaire, and 47 were analyzed in the second questionnaire. In the first questionnaire, the presence status of 16 UERE was confirmed to be 29.2~97.2%, and the usage experience of 9 UERE in the second questionnaire was 36.2~97.9%. In the second questionnaire, UERE's usage problems were reported discomfort in 15(31.9%) of 47 therapists, and improvement needs were 23(49%). The usage problems of the 9 UERE questioned by open-ended questionnaire were uninteresting, easily damaged, level unadjustable, direction unadjustable, and inconvenient installation. The improvement needs were classified into digitization, durability, level adjustable, adjustable function, convenience. The present pilot survey identified the presence status and usage experience of UERE in the department of OT and could be used as a basis for the development of closed-ended questionnaire on usage problems and improvement needs of UERE.

본 예비 연구는 국내 병원 작업치료실에서 상지 재활도구의 보유현황과 사용상 문제, 그리고 개선 필요성을 조사하고자 하였다. 연구자는 소셜 네트워크 서비스를 통하여 병원환경 작업치료실에서 근무하는 임상가를 대상으로 설문을 1차와 2차로 구분하여 실시하였다. 1차 설문은 72개를 분석하였으며, 2차 설문은 47개를 분석하였다. 1차 설문에서 16개의 상지 재활도구의 보유율은 29.2~97.2%로 확인되었으며, 2차 설문에서 9개의 상지 재활도구의 사용경험은 36.2~97.9%로 확인되었다. 또한 2차 설문에서 상지 재활도구의 사용상 문제는 47명 중 15명(31.9%)이 불편함을 호소하고 있었으며, 개선 필요성은 23명(49%)이 개선이 필요하다고 응답하였다. 개방형 설문형태로 취합한 9개의 상지 재활도구의 사용문제는 흥미, 내구성, 난이도, 다양한 방향에 대한 조절기능, 설치 및 편리성 부족으로 구분할 수 있었다. 개선사항은 디지털화, 내구성, 난이도, 조절기능, 편리성 증대로 구분할 수 있었다. 본 예비 연구는 국내 병원 작업치료실의 상지 재활도구의 보유현황과 사용경험을 확인할 수 있었으며, 추후 상지 재활도구의 문제점과 개선 필요성에 대한 폐쇄형 설문지의 개발에 근거자료가 될 것이다.
