한국어 초록

노인인구의 증가와 핵가족화로 인한 독거노인 수의
증가 그리고 노인들의 활동반경이 점차 넓어지고 활동량
이 많아짐에 따라 노인의 사고발생률이 증가하고 있다.
우리나라 65세 이상 노인의 안전사고로 인한 사망률은
다른 연령층에 비해 높은데, 2003년부터 2006년까지
한국소비자원 소비자위해감시시스템에 접수된 65세 이
상 노인 안전사고는 2004년 20.2%, 2005년 64.5%,
2006년 57.4%로 매년 증가하고 있고 있다(한국소비자
원, 2007).

The purpose of this study was to
investigate safety awareness and accidents in
elders. Method: A descriptive survey was done
to determine the incidence of accidents and
level of safety awareness. The participants were
300 elders 65 or over living in Seoul. Data
were collected from May 1 to July 31, 2007
through personal interview using a structured
questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, t-test,
ANOVA, and logistic regression were used to
analyze the data. Results: The results are as
follows. 1. The average safety awareness score
was 44.57 of a maximum of 54. 2. Most of
accidents were caused by falls (25.7%), followed
by bumping into something (11.0%), and traffic
accidents (3.6%). 3. There was no statistically
significant difference between accidents and
safety awareness level. 4. There were significant
correlations between incidence of burns and
health status (p<.05), and incidence of bumps
and age (p<.01) and incidence of arthritis
(p<.05). 5. There were significant correlations
among safety awareness level and age (p<.05),
health status (p<.01), and incidence of
hypertension (p<.01). Conclusion: These results
suggest that safety education programs are
necessary to achieve safety for elders and to
prevent accidents.
