Abstract

This study is a 1:1 survey of 154 elderly 65 or older to find out the direct and indirect effects of oral dryness on their quality of life through the medium of depression. As a result, the subjective oral health of the elderly and oral dryness, depression and quality of life were correlated. In the medial effect of subjective oral health and oral dryness on the quality of life, subjective oral health is the quality of life(β=.23, p<.01), depression(β=-.24, p<.01)and the influence of subjective oral health when depression is controlled(β=.08, p>05) was not significant and was completely mediated. Oral dryness is the quality of life(β=-.24, p<.01) and depression(β=.37, p<.001) was shown to have a significant effect and the influence of oral dryness when depression is controlled(β=.00, p>.05) was not significant and was completely mediated. In order to improve the quality of life for the elderly, it is necessary to develop and apply a comprehensive arbitration program that can improve oral health and oral function, and to study the effects of consequences in the future.

본 연구는 노인의 구강건조증이 우울을 매개로 삶의 질에 미치는 직간접적 영향을 알아보고자 65세 이상의 노인 154명을 대상으로 1:1 설문조사를 시행하였다. 그 결과 노인의 주관적 구강건강과 구강건조증, 우울, 삶의 질은 상관성이 있었다. 주관적 구강건강과 구강건조증이 삶의 질에 대한 우울의 매개효과에서, 주관적 구강건강은 삶의 질(β=.23, p<.01), 우울(β=-.24, p<.01)에 유의한 영향을 미쳤고, 우울이 통제될 때 주관적 구강건강의 영향력(β=.08, p>.05)은 유의하지 않아 완전 매개하였다. 구강건조증은 삶의 질(β=-.24, p<.01)과 우울(β=.37, p<.001)에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고 우울이 통제되었을 때의 구강건조증의 영향력(β=.00, p>.05)은 유의하지 않아 완전매개 하였다. 이상의 연구결과를 바탕으로 노인의 삶의 질을 높이기 위해서는 구강건강과 구강기능을 향상 시킬 수 있는 포괄적 중재 프로그램을 개발, 적용할 필요가 있으며 추후 적용 효과에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
