Abstract

This study analyzed the influence of Qigong exercise intervention upon a change in glucose, blood lipid, and SFT(senior fitness test) of elderly women and to closely examine the efficacy of a Qigong exercise intervention to promote the health of older women. As research subjects, 24 elderly women aged over 80 were divided into Qigong group(n=12) and control group(n=12), respectively, and the program was carried out for 60 minutes per a day, five times per week for 24 weeks. Data were analyzed using SPSS WIN 20.0, repeated measures ANOVA. The Qigong group had a significantly lower glucose level than the control group. Second, the blood lipid and neutral fat(TG) was reduced significantly in the Qigong group than the control group. The total cholesterol(TC), high-density lipoprotein(HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein(LDL-C) did not show a significant difference. Third, as for SFT, the leg strength, leg flexibility, and total body endurance were significantly higher in the Qigong group than in the control group. Therefore, Qigong has an influence on the reduction in glucose and neutral fat(TG) and upon the improvement in SFT(leg strength, leg flexibility, and total body endurance) of elderly women, and may show effectiveness as an exercise prescription program for older women.

본 연구는 기체조 운동중재가 여성고령자의 혈당, 혈중지질, 체력(SFT) 변화에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 이를 통해 여성고령자들의 건강증진 활동을 위한 기체조 운동중재의 효용성을 규명하는데 목적이 있다. 연구대상은 80세 이상 여성고령자 총 24명을 각각 기체조집단(n=12)과 통제집단(n=12)으로 나누고, 24주간 주5회 1일 60분씩 프로그램을 실시하였다. 자료의 분석은 SPSS WIN 20.0으로 반복측정 변량분석(Repeated Measures ANOVA)을 실시하였으며, 그 결과 첫째, 혈당은 기체조집단이 통제집단 보다 유의하게 낮아진 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 혈중지질은 기체조집단이 통제집단 보다 중성지방(TG)이 유의하게 감소되었으며, 총콜레스테롤(TC), 고밀도지단백(HDL-C), 저밀도지단백(LDL-C)은 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 셋째, 체력(SFT)은 기체조집단이 통제집단 보다 하지근력, 하지유연성, 전신지구력 모두 유의하게 높아진 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로 기체조는 여성고령자들의 혈당, 중성지방(TG) 감소와 SFT체력(하지근력, 하지유연성, 전신지구력) 향상에 영향을 미쳐 여성고령자 운동처방 프로그램으로의 효용성을 기대할 수 있다고 사료된다.
