Abstract

This study investigated the characteristics and factors affecting inpatient infants, children, and adolescents who experienced falling, using NHDIS data from 2008 through 2017, The study analyzed data of 116 patients who were under 18 and who experienced injuries (KSCD, S00-S99) by falling (KSCD, W00-W19). Frequency analysis, cross-tabulations, and multiple regression analysis were conducted, using SPSS 23. There were more boys than girls, and most of the falls occurred at the ages of over one to under six years old. Most of the children had respiratory diseases, and most had open wounds or bruises due to falling. Also, most of the falls were related to the bed. In the factor analysis, age (β=.318), the main diagnosis (β=.231), and injury (β=.169) except gender affected falling. This suggests that it is necessary to conduct fall prevention education for children, considering the developmental stage characteristics and age group. It is necessary to screen the risk group such as children with a disease with relatively less restriction of activities or with a hyperactive disorder, and to develop a related manual. Hopefully, the results will be used as the basic data for fall prevention education and creating a fall prevention manual according to the characteristics of children's developmental stage for patients who need hospitalization, their caregivers, and the relevant medical team.

본 연구는 2008년부터 2017년까지의 질병관리본부의 퇴원손상심층조사 자료를 이용하여 입원 아동 중 낙상을 경험한 환자를 대상으로 유·아동·청소년 낙상의 특성과 낙상영향 요인을 규명하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 입원 중 낙상(한국표준질병사인분류, W00-W19)으로 손상(한국표준질병사인분류, S00-S99)을 경험한 18세 이하 아동 환자 116건의 데이터를 수집·분석하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 23을 이용하여 빈도분석, 교차분석, 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과, 입원 중 낙상을 경험한 아동은 남자가 여자 보다 많았고, 1세 이상 6세 이하의 연령에서 낙상이 가장 많이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 낙상을 경험한 아동의 질병유형으로는 호흡기 질환이 가장 많았고 낙상으로 인한 상해유형은 열린 상처나 타박상의 빈도가 가장 높았으며, 낙상 사고 원인으로는 침대와 관련된 낙상이 가장 많았다. 낙상 관련 요인분석 결과 성별을 제외한 연령(β=.318), 주진단명(β=.231), 손상(β=.169)의 순으로 낙상에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 연구결과는 아동에 대한 낙상예방 교육이 연령, 질병 유형, 아동의 발달단계에 따른 특성과 연령대를 고려하여 실시되어야 함을 시사하는 결과라 할 수 있다. 또한 비교적 활동에 제약이 적은 경미한 질환의 아동이나 과다행동을 보이는 유아기 아동 등 질병의 유형과 연령별 아동 발달 단계특성을 고려한 낙상 사고 위험군에 대한 스크리닝 및 이와 관련한 섬세한 낙상예방 매뉴얼 개발에 힘써야 할 것이다. 마지막으로, 본 연구결과가 입원을 필요로 하는 아동 환자, 보호자, 그리고 관련 의료진에게 연령별 아동 발달단계의 특성에 따른 낙상예방 교육 및 매뉴얼 개발의 단초로 사용되기를 기대한다.
