연구목적: 국내 욕창 예방 보조기기의 사용성평가 연구의 참여자 특성, 사용성평가 요소, 보조기기 유형, 평가도구 등의 사용성 평가 방법을 조사하는 것이다. 연구방법: Google scholar, RISS, KISS, Korea scholar, DBpia의 데이터베이스에서 “욕창” OR “욕창예방” AND “사용성” OR “사용성평가”를 키워드로 설정하여 문헌을 수집하였다. 문헌선정은 PRISMA(Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis) 흐름도에 따라 진행하였다. 선정문헌을 대상으로 Quality Assessment Checklist와 Critical Appraisal Skills Programme Case Control Checklist로 문헌의 질을 평가하였다. 연구결과: 대상자는 치료사가 98명(46%)으로 가장 많았고, 보조기기의 유형은 침대, 매트리스, 방석이 있다. 사용성평가의 요소 및 평가도구는 평균압력, 체압분포 등 체압 관련 요소와 FSR(Force sensing resistor), Pressure mat(FSA pressure mapping system), X-sensor와 같은 체압 관련 평가도구가 가장 많았다. 결론: 본 연구가 앞으로도 꾸준히 연구되고 개발될 욕창 예방 보조기기 사용성 평가에 대한 기초자료로 활용되기를 기대한다.

Purpose: To investigate usability testing methods such as participant characteristics, usability testing factors, assistive device types, and evaluation tools in the domestic pressure ulcer prevention assistive device usability testing study. Method: The literature was collected by setting "ulcers" OR "Preventing pressure ulcers" AND "Usability" OR "Usability testing" as keywords in the database of Google school, RISS, KISS, Korea school, and DBpia. Literature selection was conducted according to the flow chart of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). The quality of the literature was evaluated with the Quality Assessment Checklist and the Critical Appraisal Skills Program Case Control Checklist for the selected literature. Results: The subjects were 98 therapists (46%) and the types of assistive devices were beds, mattresses, and cushions. As for the factors and evaluation tools of usability testing, body pressure-related factors such as average pressure and body pressure distribution, and body pressure-related evaluation tools such as FSR(force sensing resistor), FSA pressure mapping system, and X-sensor were the most. Conclusion: It is expected that this study will be used as basic data for the evaluation of the usability of an assistive device for preventing pressure ulcers that will be continuously studied and developed in the future.
