Abstract

Purpose: This study examined self-efficacy, self-care behavior, posttraumatic growth, and quality of life in cancer patients and their levels by disease characteristics groups to identify patient groups that require psychosocial intervention. Methods: We surveyed 107 patients using a structured questionnaire about the four factors and analyzed the factors by stratifying the patients by the period after the cancer diagnosis, by stage and by current treatment status. Results: The mean score for self-efficacy was 37.78, and that for self-care behavior 49.96. Patients who were diagnosed less than one year ago scored higher on medication, a sub-category of self-care behavior, than the post-diagnosis period of 1~2 year group. The score was higher in the currently-treated group than the follow-up and distant metastasis groups. For posttraumatic growth, the mean was 56.17, and the factor was higher in the 1~2 year post-diagnosis group after than the less than one year group. The score was higher in the follow-up group than the currently-treated group. With regard to quality of life, the mean score was 25.79, and no significant correlation was found with disease characteristics. Conclusion: A shorter post-diagnosis period increased self-care behavior, and the greatest posttraumatic growth was reported by the 1~2 year post-diagnosis group. It may be necessary to provide cancer patients with an education program and other strategies less than one year after the diagnosis to improve self-efficacy and self-care behavior. To promote post-traumatic growth, it may be helpful to provide patients with psychosocial intervention within two years after the diagnosis.

목적: 암환자의 자가간호행위, 자기효능감, 외상 후 성장, 그리고 삶의 질의 정도를 평가하고, 질병관련특성에 따른 차이를 파악하여 이들의 정도가 낮은 환자군의 질병관련특성을 발견하여, 이를 증진시킬 교육과 프로그램의 적용 등 심리사회적 개입이 필요한 환자군에 대한 자료를 제공하고자 한다. 방법: 암환자 총 107명을 대상으로 자가간호행위, 자기효능감, 외상 후 성장, 심리, 사회관계적 삶의 질에 관한 설문조사 하였고, 진단병기, 진단 후 경과기간, 치료현황의 질병관련특성에 따라 그룹으로 나누어 이에 대해 평가하였다. 결과: 자가간호행위는 총 65점 중 평균점수 49.96점, 자기효능감은 총 50점 중 평균점수 37.78점으로 나타났다. 자가간호행위는 하위요인 중 투약의 항목에서는 진단 후 기간이 1년 이상 2년 미만의 환자집단에 비해 1년 미만의 환자집단에서, 추적관찰중 집단 및 전이집단에 비해서 현재치료중 집단이 높은 점수를 나타냈다. 외상 후 성장은 총 80점 중 평균점수 56.17점이 나왔고, 진단 후 경과기간 1년 이상 2년 미만의 환자집단이 1년 미만의 환자집단에 비해서 점수가 유의하게 높았으며, 하위요인으로는 자기지각의 변화가 차이를 보였다. 추적관찰 중인 집단이 현재치료 중 집단보다 점수가 유의하게 높았으며, 하위요인으로 대인관계의 깊이증가와 영적, 종교적 관심증가에서 차이를 보였다. 삶의 질은 총 40점 중 평균점수 25.79점이였으며, 질병관련특성에 따라 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결론: 진단 후 경과기간이 짧을수록 자가간호행위 높은 점수를 나타냈고, 외상 후 성장은 암 진단 후 경과기간이 1년 이후 2년 미만이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이를 토대로, 진단 후 1년 이내에 자가간호행위와 자기효능감 증진을 도모하는 것이 이를 유지하는 데에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다. 또한 암 진단 후 2년 시점에서 외상 후 성장을 위한 외적 자원의 투입이 필요하다.
