Objectives: The study was based on the medical records of patients who were diagnosed with gynecological diseases at K University Hospital in D area, this study was conducted to identify the characteristics of patient's main diagnosis and to provide basic data on women's health by knowing the risk factors of gynecological disease.
Method: The study covered 150 medical records of patients aged 19 or older who were hospitalized for gynecological diseases for one year from July 2018 to June 2019.
Results: First, the distribution to the patient's main diagnosis group was 67.3% with 'gynecologic diseases group' accounting for the largest portion, while 'gynecologic neoplasm disease group' was 32.7%. There was no statistically significant difference in the general characteristics of the main diagnostic group.
Second, there was no statistically significant difference between all variables of the general and the obstetric characteristics for main diagnosis group.
Third, the treatment-related characteristics of the main diagnosis group showed statistically significant differences in the presence of symptoms and the day of hospitalization. When we first looked at the symptoms, 60.4% of the cases were 'symptoms' while 67.3 % of the cases were 'no symptoms'(p<0.001). In the day of hospitalization, 54.5 % of 'gynecologic diseases group' were 'more than six days,' and 63.3% "less than five days' were 'gynecologic neoplasm disease group' (p<0.05).
Fourth, as a result of correlation analysis between general, obstetric and treatment-related characteristics of the subjects and gynecological diseases indicated statistically significant correlations in drinking, family history, gravidity and parity, and significant negative correlations in 'menopause' or 'absence of menopause'. The 'surgery status' indicated a significant amount of correlation with the 'care results'.
Fifth, the effects of general and obstetric characteristics on gynecology showed that the logistic regression model showed 22% explanatory power, but there was no statistically significant difference.
Conclusions: Based on the results, it was found that different characteristics of main diagnosis group were important factor for gynecological diseases. It is necessary to identify and provide appropriate medical services for each group of women to focus on the improvement of women's health.
