초록

In this paper, the effects of the external-rotation exercise on the gait of hemiplegia was investigated. 26 patients with hemiplegia due to cerebrovascular accident participated in this study. Subjects were randomly assigned to experimental group(n=12) and control one(n=14). 12 subjects of the experimental group were received the external rotation reducing exercise on the mat with seating and supine posture after the general therapeutic exercise for hemiplegia. 14 subjects of the control group were received only general therapeutic exercise. The effects of external rotation reducing exercise were evaluated by measurements of gait velocity, cadence, stride length, step length and foot angle using ink-foot prints. The collected data were analyzed statistically based on Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney and correlation analysis. After treatment of three weeks, it turned out that external rotation reducing exercise has the significant effect on foot angle(p<0.01). However the exercise has no statistically significant direct effect on the gait velocity, cadence, stride length and step length.
