Abstract

Purpose: Pediatric palliative care (PPC) is emphasized as standard care for children with life-limiting conditions to improve the quality of life. In Korea, a government-funded pilot program was launched only in July 2018. Given that, this study examined various PPC delivery models in other countries to refine the PPC model in Korea. Methods: Target countries were selected based on the level of PPC provided there: the United Kingdom, the United States, Japan, and Singapore. Relevant literature, websites, and consultations from specialists were analyzed by the integrative review method. Literature search was conducted in PubMed, Google, and Google Scholar, focusing publications since 1990, and on-site visits were conducted to ensure reliability. Analysis was performed on each country's process to develop its PPC scheme, policy, funding model, target population, delivery system, and quality assurance. Results: In the United Kingdom, community-based free-standing facilities work closely with primary care and exchange advice and referrals with specialized PPC consult teams of children's hospitals. In the United States, hospital-based specialized PPC consult teams set up networks with hospice agencies and home healthcare agencies and provide PPC by designating care coordinators. In Japan, palliative care is provided through several services such as palliative care for cancer patients, home care for technology-dependent patients, other support services for children with disabilities and/or chronic conditions. In Singapore, a home-based PPC association plays a pivotal role in providing PPC by taking advantage of geographic accessibility and cooperating with tertiary hospitals. Conclusion: It is warranted to identify unmet needs and establish an appropriate PPD model to provide need-based individualized care and optimize PPC in South Korea.

목적: 소아청소년 호스피스 완화의료(이하 소아완화의료)는 생명을 위협하는 질환을 가진 소아청소년의 삶의 질을 향상시기 위한 총체적 돌봄 철학이자 실무의 표준이다. 국내에서는 2018년 7월 국가 지원의 소아완화의료 시범사업을 도입하였는데, 소아완화의료의 발전 방향을 제시하기 위해 국외 선진국의 소아완화의료 제공체계를 고찰하였다. 방법: 소아완화의료 제공 수준을 검토하여 영국, 미국, 일본, 싱가포르를 대상으로 선정하였다. 소아완화의료 제공체계를 다룬 국내외 학술지 등 문헌을 통합적으로 고찰하고 현지 전문가의 자문과 현지 방문조사를 수행하였다. 1990년 이후 영어, 일본어로 발간된 문헌을 중심으로 PubMed, Google, Google Scholar에서 검색하여 학술지, 정책보고서 등을 참고하였다. 각국의 소아완화의료 발전과정, 정책, 재정 모델, 대상 기준, 전달 체계, 질 관리 체계에 대해 분석하였다. 결과: 영국은 지역사회의 독립형 소아전문 완화의료기관이 일차 의료체계와 협력하며 어린이병원의 전문 소아완화의료 자문팀과 의뢰와 자문을 주고받는다. 미국은 병원기반의 전문 소아완화의료 자문팀을 중심으로 지역사회의 호스피스기관, 가정의료기관이 네트워크를 구축하고 돌봄 코디네이터를 지정하여 소아완화의료를 제공한다. 일본은 완화의료, 재택의료, 장애아동 및 만성질환아동 지원체계에서 완화의료 성격의 서비스를 제공한다. 싱가포르는 소아전문 가정 완화의료 단체가 어린이병원의 전문 자문팀과 협력하여 높은 지리적 접근성을 토대로 중추적으로 완화의료를 제공한다. 결론: 국외의 제공체계를 참고하고 국내의 현장의 요구를 반영하여 소아완화의료의 제공체계를 정비하여 미충족 요구가 발생하지 않도록 한국 소아청소년 호스피스완화의료를 최적화해 나가야 한다.
