당뇨병 환자의 임상영양치료를 위한 임상영양사의 직무표준 개발

Abstract

ABSTRACT This study was conducted to develop job standards for clinical dietitian administering clinical nutrition ther-apy to diabetic patients in hospitals. Based on DACUM (Developing A Curriculum) analysis of 17 members including clinical dietitians, professors majoring in clinical nutrition and researchers, information on duties, tasks and task elements of clinical dietitians for diabetes care were derived and applied to diabetes melli-tus-specific clinical nutrition care in hospitals for evaluation. The final developed job standards for clinical di-etitians for diabetes care included four duties, 19 tasks and 56 task elements. The duties consisted of nutrition assessment, nutrition diagnosis, nutrition intervention, and nutrition monitoringㆍevaluation. For application of diabetes mellitus-specific job standards in clinical nutrition care, 108 work activities were developed and clas-sified into 90 basic and 18 recommended types. Performance rates of standardized jobs were 80.2% at nu-trition assessment, 99.6% at nutrition diagnosis, 78.5% at nutrition intervention, and 32.9% at nutrition mon-itoringㆍevaluation. These results can be applied as guidelines to implement jobs for diabetes mellitus-specific clinical nutrition services in clinical settings. In addition, they would be useful for education standards in edu-cational institutions for education and training of clinical dietitian.
