보건연구개발 사업을 위한 지역사회 진단의 일환으로 도시 영세지역 주민을 대상으로 시행한 건강진단 조사의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 전체 대상주민 2,591명중 건강진단에 참여한 영세지역 주민은 437명(16.9%)였으며 남자는 9.9% 여자는 23.9%가 참여하였다. 연령별로는 60세 이상군이 42%로 가장 높은 참여율을 나타냈고 20-29세군이 5.9%로 가장 낮았다. 건강진단에서 이상소견율은 남자가 38.7%, 여자가 45.8%였으며 전체적으로 43.7%였고 연령별로는 60세 이상군이 69.8%로 가장 높고 10-19세군이 10.9%로 가장 낮았다. 국제질병분류(ICD 17 대분류)에 의한 질병분포는 소화기계 질병이 23.7%로 가장 높았고 순환기계 질병 19.7%, 신경계 및 감각기 질병 13.2% 순이었다. Screening test에서 헤마토크릿치가 낮은 경우가 14.6%, 고혈압이 10.1%, 청력손실 5.5%, 간기능이상 4.1%, 당뇨가 2.3%, 단백뇨가 1.4%, chest X-선상 이상소견이 0.9%였다.
The purpose of the this study was to assess the morbidity pattern of urban residents in the poor area by health screening for the community diagnosis. The items of health screening were history taking and physical examination by medical doctor and hearing test, check blood pressure, test for hematocrit, liver function(sGOT, sGPT), urine sugar and protein, and chest X-ray. The examinee in health screening were 437 persons and they occupied 16.9% of total residents in the poor area. Male examinee were 129 persons(9.9% of total residents) and female examinee were 308 persons(23.9% of total residents). Age group of above sixty years old, 42.0% of total residents in the poor area were participated, but only 5.9% were participated in age group of 10 to 19 years old. Among the 437 examinee, 191 persons(43.7%) had one or more abnormal findings in health screening. In male 38.7% had abnormal findings, and some what lower than that of female(45.8%). Age group of above sixty years had most high rate of abnormal findings(69.8%), in contrast to age group of 10 to 19 years old (10.9%). Diseases of the digestive system was the most common and which occupies 23.7% of total abnormal findings. And diseases of the circulatory system occupied 19.7%. Low hematocrit(14.6% of total participants of 437 persons) occupies the most common abnormal findings for screening test(hematocrit, blood pressure, hearing test, sGOT/sGPT, urine protein and urine sugar, chest X-ray) and high blood pressure(10.1%) occupied second, third; hearing impairment (5.5%), fourth ; abnormal liver function (4.1%), fifth ; sugar in urine (2.3%), sixth ; protein in urine(1.4%) and lastly abnormal chest X-ray (0.9%). The positive rate of abnormal findings in health screening was very high compared with morbidity rate by health interview. It is supposed that some portion of this high rate is by selection bias in examinee in health screening specially high participating rate in older age, and the other portion is due to the low socioecomic status and bad environment of the residents of the poor area. These findings will be good information for the research and development of health care system in the urban poor area.
