초록

본 연구는 냉각 통증 모델을 이용해 간섭파전류와 경피신경전기자극간에 진통 효과를 비교하고자 하였다. 16명의 대상자는 6주기의 냉각 통증 모델 검사를 수행하였다. 대상자는 각 주기에서 차가운 물에 손을 담근 후 통증을 호소하는데 걸리는 시간을 이용하여 통증 역치와 시각적통증강도를 이용하여 통증 강도 및 통증 불편감을 측정하였다. 대상자에게 무작위로 각각 간섭파전류 주파수 50 Hz와 100 Hz, 경피신경전기자극 주파수 50 Hz와 100 Hz를 적용하였다. 본 연구에서 4가지 전기자극은 모두 통계적으로 유의하게 통증 역치가 증가하였으나 전기자극간에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 그리고 통증 강도와 통증 불편감에서는 모두 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론적으로 현재의 실험 조건에서 4가지 전기자극간에는 유의한 차이가 없었으나 주파수 50 Hz의 간섭파전류가 다른 전기자극보다 적용시 더 편안하였다.

The aim of this single blind intervation study was to compare the analgesic effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and interferential currents (IFC) on cold-induced pain in healthy volunteers. Sixteen subjects completed six cycles of the cold-induced pain test. During each cycle pain threshold was recorded as the time from immersion of the subject is hand in cold water to the first sensation of pain and pain intensity and unpleasantness ratings were recorded using visual analogue scales. Subjects were randomly allocated to receive each 50 Hz-TENS, 50 Hz-IFC, 100 Hz-TENS and 100 Hz-IFC. Statistical analysis showed that four interventions elevated the cold pain threshold significantly and the difference between interventions was not simply significant. But, no significant differences were identified in pain intensity and unpleasantness ratings. We conclude that there were no differences in the analgesic effects of the four interventions under the present experimental conditions. But, 50 Hz-IFC has been shown to be more comfortable than other interventions.
