Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether extracorporeal shock wave (ESWT) is an effective treatment for rotator cuff tendinitis. Study subjects included 32 patients (16 in the experimental group and 16 in the control group). The patients were evaluated by assessing pain and function using visual analog scale (VAS), pressure pain threshold (PPT), Constant and Murley Scale (CMS), and simple shoulder test (SST). The results of this study indicated that ESWT after the subjects in the experimental group experienced significant changes in pain, range of motion, muscle strength, and function when compared to the control group. These results indicate that ESWT could be considered as an effective and efficient treatment for rotator cuff tendinitis.

본 연구는 회전근개건염 환자에게 체외충격파 치료를 실시하여 통증과 기능에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보고자 하였다. 2011년 9월부터 2012년 2월까지 초음파를 통해 회전근개건염 진단을 받은 환자 32명(치료군 16명, 대조군 16명)을 대상으로 치료군에게 4주 동안 체외충격파 치료를 실시하였다. 통증은 visual analog scale(VAS)와 pressure pain threshold(PPT)를 사용하여 평가하였고 기능평가는 위해 Constant and Murley Scale(CMS)와 Simple Shoulder Test(SST)를 통해 평가 하였다. 연구 결과 체외충격파 중재 후 치료군에서는 대조군에 비해 통증과 관절가동 범위, 근력, 기능 등 모든 부분에서 유의한 변화를 보였다. 이 결과는 회전근개건염 환자에게 체외충격파 치료가 어깨의 통증과 기능에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 가능성을 시사하고 효과적인 치료방법이라 할 수 있다.
