AB - Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the levels of the preferences for care near the end of life-korean version(PCEOL-K) and factors affecting the PCEOL-K among nurses and physicians.
Methods: A descriptive study was conducted with 407 nurses and physicians working in general hospital and university hospital, Daegu and Busan. Data were collected through selfreported questionnaires from June to September, 2010. Data were analyzed using the Pearson’s Correlation Coefficient, t-test, ANOVA, Turkey’s HSD, and multiple regression with SPSS/WIN 15.0.
Results: The mean score of PCEOL-K was 69.03±5.48 for nurses and 68.69±7.15 for physicians.Factors predicting subjects’ PCEOL-K were clinical experience, fear of death, and the personal meaning of death. These factors explained 40.0% of the PCEOL-K (F=21.00, p<.001).
Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that the construction of comprehensive framework for nurses and physicians in relation to end-of-life care may contribute to improved positive preferences for care near the end of life by encouraging their professional careers and spirituality.
