초록

본 연구는 성인 뇌졸중 환자의 보행기능을 향상시키기 위해 사용되고 있는 보행보조기의 가장 이상적인 길이를 제시함으로써 뇌졸중 환자만을 위한 전문화된 맞춤형 보행보조기 길이의 사용을 독려하기 위하여 실시하게 되었다. 그 결과, 지팡이 높이에 따른 성인 뇌졸중 환자의 보행균형, 보행분석에서 보행의 속도 증가를 위해서 몸통 굴곡을 통한 무게 중심이 아래쪽에 위치하고, 하지근육의 활성도 증가를 위해서 몸통 신전을 통한 무게 중심이 위쪽으로 이동하여 척추 기립근의 수축으로 뇌졸중 환자의 지팡이 높이에 따른 균형과 보행 변화의 근거를 제시한다.

Objecctives: This study investigates the effects of using customized walking aids individualized for stroke patients by measuring the effects of different cane lengths to determine the ideal length of walking aids for stroke patients. Methods: Cane lengths were determined from the greater trochanter with walking aids measured 5cm below, at the greater trochanter and 5cm above. All patients walked for ten meters with each cane length to measure speed. Then, we measured the opto gait, timed up go test, and electromyography three times each. Statistical analysis was performed using a linear mixed model, and in the case of significance, the p-value was corrected using the Bonferroni method. Results: There was a statistically significant differences in time up and go test(TUGT), 10m walking, stride and speed between the groups. Conclusions: Long cane length increases body symmetry, stride, increasing muscle activity, and short cane length increases balance and walking.
