Abstract
본 연구는 환자가 느끼는 자신의 주관적 구강보건영향지수(OHIP-14; Oral Health Impact Profile-14)와 주관적 전신건강지수(THI; Todai Health Index)를 사용하여, 구강보건이 전신건강과 삶의 질(QOL; Quality of Life)에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 알아보고 구강질환 예방과 구강보건 향상을 위한 프로그램을 개발에 필요한 기초 자료를 제공하여 지역사회주민의 건강과 삶의 질을 증진하고자 한다. 주관적 구강건강상태에 따른 OHIP를 분석한 결과 자가 인식 구강 건강상태는 전 영역에서 유의한 차이가 있었고, 총 점수가 건강한 편이 4.33으로 유의하게 높았다. 주관적 구강건강상태에 따른 THI를 분석한 결과 자가 인식 구강건강상태는 전 영역에 걸쳐 유의한 차이가 있었으며, 총 점수에서는 매우건강 한 자가 3.83으로 점수가 높았다. 주관적 구강건강상태에 따른 QOL을 분석한 결과 자가 인식 구강건강상태에서는 사회적 영역을 제외한 전 영역에서 유의한 차이가 있었으며, 총 점수는 건강한 편이 3.39로 가장 높았다. This study adopted two instruments, i.e. Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14: index of patient's subjective oral health impact) and Todai Health Index (THI: index of patient's subjective systemic health) The Purpose of this study was to determine potential effects of oral health upon systemic health and quality of life (QOL) and provide required basic reference data for developing oral diseases prevention program and public oral health improvement As a result, it may contribute to improving health and quality of life in local community. Analysis on OHIP for subjective oral health conditions revealed that there were significant differences among all categories of self-aware oral health conditions on statistic basis and good oral health group showed significantly higher total OHIP points (4.33) than any other group. Analysis on THI for subjective oral health conditions showed that there were significant differences among all categories of self-aware oral health conditions on statistical basis and very good oral health group got higher total THI points (3.83) than any other group. Analysis on QOL for subjective oral health conditions suggested that there were significant differences among all categories of self-aware oral health conditions but social category and good oral health group got highest total QOL points (3.39) of all groups.
