Life Experience of Patients suffering from Crohn's Disease: Yang-Sook Yoo, Eun-Ju Lee, Ok-Hee Cho; J Korean Acad Nurs 2013;43(3):409-419. Published online June 28, 2013; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2013.43.3.409

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to describe and explore the experience process of life of patients with Crohn's disease.

Methods

Using a grounded theory methodology, 24 interviews were performed with 7 men and 5 women, 17-47 years of age, suffering from Crohn's disease.

Results

'Tuning of two conflicting lives' was identified as the core category, and 5 subcategories were identified and they were integrated into the core category. The identified outcomes were 'Living a withdrawn life', 'coping flexibly', 'drifting with tangled emotions' and 'maintaining long-term remission'.

Conclusion

When caring for these patients, it is important to identify needs, allow patients to express what they want at that moment and support them in maintaining a daily life that can be perceived as normal.

Depression and Risk Factors in Patients with Crohn's Disease: Ok-Hee Cho, Yang-Sook Yoo, Suk-Kyun Yang; J Korean Acad Nurs 2012;42(2):207-216. Published online April 30, 2012; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2012.42.2.207

Abstract PDF

Purpose

This study was conducted to determine the risk factors among patients with depression with Crohn's disease.

Methods

Data were collected by questionnaire from 276 patients who were diagnosed with Crohn's disease at a tertiary hospital located in Seoul. Measurements included patients' demographic characteristics, clinical characteristics, depression level, and health-related quality of life. Data were analyzed using t-test, χ²-test, Wilcoxon rank sum test, and logistic regression analyses.

Results

The incidence rate of depression (BDI-II≥14scores) was 31.9% (n=88). Univariate analysis revealed that being a woman, school graduation status, economic status (low), BMI(<18.5Kg/m²), disease duration (≥3 years), CDAI (≥150 scores), frequency of hospital admission (≥2), extra-intestinal manifestation (arthralgia, stomatitis), administration of 5-aminosalicylic acid, and disease related quality of life (SIBDQ<50 scores) were associated with depression. Multivariate analysis revealed that economic status (low), school graduation status, and quality of life (SIBDQ<50 scores) were more likely to report high level of depression.

Conclusion

Future research should consider managing depression as an essential component of comprehensive care for patients with Crohn's disease. In addition, further research is needed to develop strategies to better improve quality of life among patients with Crohn's disease who are depressed.

Development and Evaluation of 「Hospice Smart Patient」 Service Program: Chai-Soon Park, Yang-Sook Yoo, Dong-Won Choi, Hyun-Jeong Park, Ji-In Kim; J Korean Acad Nurs 2011;41(1):9-17. Published online February 28, 2011; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2011.41.1.9

Abstract PDF

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to develop and implement the Hospice Smart Patient Program and to evaluate its effectiveness.

Methods

It was quasi-experimental non-equivalent pre-post study. Breast cancer patients who underwent surgery, chemotherapy or radiotherapy, or who needed palliative care, participated in the study. Participants were divided into two groups, experimental and control groups based on their preferences. The program was developed after literature review and discussion among experts on hospice and palliative care. Participants who were in the experimental group received either face-to-face or phone 「Hospice Smart Patient」 Service at least once a week for 5 months.

Results

There was a significant difference in quality of life and communication skill between the two groups after the service was provided. In addition, participants in experimental group showed improved decision making skills, mastery sense, and understanding of hospice and palliative care, which would be beneficial in improving their quality of life.

Conclusion

We have concluded that the 「Hospice Smart Patient」 Program is useful for cancer patients in decision making, improving self-control and choosing hospice care to improve their quality of life.

Effects of Aromatherapy on Changes in the Autonomic Nervous System, Aortic Pulse Wave Velocity and Aortic Augmentation Index in Patients with Essential Hypertension: Jung-Hee Cha, Sun-Hee Lee, Yang-Sook Yoo; J Korean Acad Nurs 2010;40(5):705-713. Published online October 31, 2010; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2010.40.5.705

Abstract PDF

Purpose

To investigate the effectiveness of aromatherapy on blood pressure, heart rate variability, aortic pulse wave velocity and the aortic augmentation index of essential hypertensive patients.

Methods

Using a coin toss, 22 participants were assigned to the experimental group and 20 to the control. The experimental group was given a blend of oils of lemon (Citrus limonum), lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), and ylang ylang (Cananga odorata) which were prepared in the ratio of 2:2:1, respectively. The control group was given an artificial lemon fragrance of Limonene (35 cc) and Citral (15 cc) mixture. The experiment, inhalation, was conducted for 3 weeks (2 min per inhalation, 2 times per day) to both groups.

Results

There was a noticeable difference in systolic blood pressure between the groups (p=.001), however the difference in diastolic blood pressure between the two groups was not significant. There was a notable difference in sympathetic nerve system activity of heart rate variability (p=.047). However, the differences in aortic pulse wave velocity or the aortic augmentation index were not significant.

Conclusion

Aromatherapy is effective in lowering systolic blood pressure and sympathetic nerve system activity.
