Abstract

This study aimed to provide the basic data for the prevention of carpal tunnel syndrome by measuring and comparatively analyzing the changes in muscular strength, grasping force, and agility of hands before/after practice, targeting the dental hygiene students taking the scaling practice course. Targeting total 15 students(4th-year) of Dental Hygienics who had no problems with anatomical structure, muscular strength, grasping force, and senses of hands, the muscular strength, grasping force, and agility of hands were measured before/after the scaling practice. The collected data was processed by using the PASW Statistics 18.0(SPSS) Program. In the results of this study, the muscular strength and grasping force of hands were decreased after the practice compared to the ones before the practice. The agility of hands was increased after the practice compared to the one before the practice. Based on such results of this study, it would be necessary to avoid such exhausting hand gestures for scaling, and also to develop the preventive exercise to build up the strength of hands like stretching before/after scaling.

본 연구는 치석제거 실습수업을 하는 치위생학과 학생들을 대상으로 실습 전·후의 손의 근력, 파지력, 민첩성 변화를 측정하고 비교 분석하여, 수근관 증후군을 예방하기 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 치위생학과 4학년 재학생 중 손의 해부학적 구조, 근력, 파지력 및 감각에 이상이 없는 15명을 대상으로 치석제거 실습 전과 실습 후에 손의 근력, 파지력, 민첩성을 측정하였다. 수집된 자료는 PASW Statistics 18.0(SPSS) 통계프로그램을 활용하여 처리하였다. 연구결과 손의 근력과 파지력은 실습 전과 비교하여 실습 후에 감소하였다. 손의 민첩성은 실습 전과 비교하여 실습 후에 증가하였다. 이러한 결과를 통해 스케일링 동작 시 피로를 줄 수 있는 손동작을 자제하고, 스케일링 전후로 스트레칭 등 손의 힘을 기르는 예방운동의 개발이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
