모바일 개인건강기록(Personal Health Records: PHR) 어플리케이션의 이용이 소비자 건강행태에 미치는 영향
The Effects of a Mobile Personal Health Records (PHR) Application on Consumer Health Behavior
초록
본 연구는 모바일 개인건강기록(Personal health record: PHR) 어플리케이션의 장단점을 분석하고 그 어플리케이션의 사용이 소비자 건강정보행태에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구를 위해 총 27명의 대학생들이 3개월 동안 PHR 어플리케이션을 사용하였으며, 그 경험을 바탕으로 서면인터뷰를 실시하였다. 내용분석 결과, 시각적 인터페이스를 통한 예방 차원의 건강관리 및 건강 향상을 위한 동기부여와 구체적 가이드라인의 제공, 가족과의 데이터 공유 및 간병인(caregiver)의 환자 건강관리지원, 무엇보다도 환자와 의료전문가와의 상호작용 강화 등이 PHR의 혜택으로 부각되었다. 반면 근력운동과 같은 콘텐츠의 미비 내지는 타 기기와의 호환성 미흡 등이 문제점으로 지적되었다. PHR의 도움으로 건강을 향상시키고자 하는 소비자들은 감정적 지원을 받는가 하면, 수면장애극복, 금주, 금연, 그리고 체중감량 및 식습관의 변화 등 건강행태를 변화시키고자 하는 동기부여가 생겼으며, 실제로 건강행태의 변화를 성취함으로써 자기효능이 증가하기도 하였다. 본 연구는 국내 연구에서는 도입단계인 PHR에 대한 연구를 시도했다는 것에 학문적 의의가 있으며, 헬스케어분야의 패러다임 변화에 대응하기 위한 건강 및 의료정보서비스를 모색하는데 통찰력 있는 시사점을 제공한다.

Abstract
The present study aimed at investigating the strengths and weaknesses of a mobile personal health record (PHR) application and identifying its impacts on consumer health information behavior. For the study, twenty-seven college students used a PHR application for three months, based on which the study conducted paper-based interviews with them. The results of content analysis highlighted the benefits of the PHR such as supporting preventive healthcare and motivating and providing specific guidelines for healthy lifestyles by utilizing visual interface design, sharing the data with family and assisting caregivers to manage patients’ healthcare, and above all enhancing the interaction between patients and healthcare professionals. However, the study found the drawbacks of the PHR such as a lack of data entry for strength training and the incompatibility with other healthcare applications. The participants were motivated to change their health behaviors in ways such as getting rid of sleep disorders, avoiding alcohol and smoking tobacco, and losing weight, and changing eating habits. Some consumers improved self-efficacy by changing their health behaviors, while the PHR provided emotional supports to the consumers who wanted to improve their health. The present study has an academic significance because the study of PHR is a burgeoning area in Korea. The study provides insights for promoting health and medical information services to cope with the paradigm shift of healthcare fields.
