Abstract

To examine the effects of horticultural occupational therapy (HOT) on the physical and psychological rehabilitation of stroke patients with paralysis on one side of the body, a horticultural therapy (HT) program was implemented along with occupational therapy (OT) in 20 patients with hemiplegia after stroke (treatment group). In the control group, another 20 patients with hemiplegia after stroke received OT but no HT. The HOT program consisted of various indoor horticultural activities that proceeded stepwise on a weekly basis over the course of four weeks. The selected horticultural occupations were organized into four-phases: motivation, adaptation, sociality, and interpersonal relationships and communication. The grooved pegboard test (GPT), geriatric depression scale (GDS), and functional independent measure (FIM) were tested to the patients in this study. Unlike control group, the treatment group showed statistically significant differences in GPT, GDS, and FIM ($p$<0.001). In addition, communication, social cognition, and self-care scores as FIM subordinate factors were improved significantly by HOT program which motivated patients to engage in rehabilitation therapy. This finding suggests that HOT has the potential to be used as an OT program for stroke patients with hemiplegia.

반신마비 뇌졸중 환자의 심리적 정서적 재활에 대한 원예작업치료의 효과를 확인하고자 40명의 반신마비 뇌졸중 환자 가운데 20명을 대상으로 원예치료와 작업치료를 시행하였다(치료군). 나머지 20명을 대상으로 작업치료만을 실시하였다(대조군). 원예치료 프로그램은 다양한 실내원예활동으로 구성되었으며 1주일을 기본으로 4주 단위로 3단계 즉 3개월 동안 실시하였다. 선정된 원예작업은 동기유발, 적응, 사회성, 관계와 소통의 4개의 단위로 구성되었다. 원예작업치료의 효과 분석을 위해 손기능척도(GPT), 노인우울척도(GDS), 일상생활동작검사(FIM)를 실시하였다. 그 결과 대조군과 달리 원예작업 치료를 받은 처리군에서 재활 효과가 우수하였으며 GPT, GDS, FIM 모두 통계적으로 고도로 유의한 결과를 나타냈다. 또한 원예작업치료를 통해 환자들의 재활치료에 대한 동기부여는 물론 FIM의 하부요소인 의사소통, 사회인지도, 자기보호 항목도 크게 향상되었다. 본 연구를 통해 원예작업치료가 반신마비 뇌졸중 환자에 대한 작업치료 프로그램으로 활용될 수 있다는 것을 확인 가능하였다.
