Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether medial gastrocnemius ultrasound imaging of the Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) has the possibilities as a measurement method. This study was conducted from April 21th 2011 to April 30th 2011. Thirty-five healthy subjects were included based on the absence of regular physical activity, and no history of recent trauma, musculoskeletal pathology, cardiovascular disease or drug intake. All subjects induced DOMS through climbing for 5 hours and we measured the visual analogue scale (VAS), creatine kinase (CK) and maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVlC) of ankle plantar flexor prior to DOMS and at 24, 48 and 72 hours post DOMS and these measurements were compared with pennation angle of medial gastrocnemius measured by ultrasound imaging. Results of this study were as following. VAS, CK, and MVIC of ankle plantar flexor were found significant difference related measurement period (p<0.05) and pennation angle of medial gastrocnemius were found significant difference related measurement period (p<0.05). Furthermore, we confirmed that the flow of change between variables related measurment period was consistent. Through this study, we think that measuring the changes in pennation angle of medial gastrocnemius over time using ultrasound imaging will be able to be used as a new method measuring DOMS.

본 연구의 목적은 지연성근통증에 대한 내측 비복근 초음파 영상의 측정도구로서의 가능성에 대해 알아보고자 함에 있다. 본 연구는 2011년 4월 21일부터 4월30일까지 실시되었다. 평소 규칙적인 운동을 하지 않으며, 최근 외상의 경험, 근골격계 질환, 심혈관계 질환이 없고 약물을 복용하지 않는 35명의 건강한 성인이 참여하였다. 대상자들은 5시간의 등반을 통해 지연성근통증을 유발하였으며, 지연성근통증 전과 지연성근통증 후 24, 48, 72시에 통증(visual analogue scale :VAS), 혈중 크레아틴 키나아제(creatine kinase: CK) 활성도, 족저 굴곡근의 최대근수축력(maximal voluntary isometric contraction: MVlC)을 측정하였고, 이 측정값과 초음파로 측정한 내측 비복근의 우상각을 비교하였다. 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 통증지표, 혈중 크레아틴 키나아제 활성도, 족저 굴곡근 최대등척성근수축력에 측정시기에 따른 유의한 차이가 발생하였으며(p<0.05), 내측 비복근 우상각에서도 측정시기에 따른 유의한 차이가 발생하였다(p<0.05). 또한 변수 간 측정시기에 따른 변화의 흐름이 일치하는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 초음파 검사를 통한 내측 비복근 우상각의 시간경과에 따른 변화 측정이 지연성근통증을 감지하는 새로운 측정방법으로 사용될 수 있을 것이라 생각한다.
