Abstract

This study investigated the effect of extracorporeal shock wave therapy on the knee angle, MAS, and TUG of the affected side in patients with hemiplegic strokes. This study selected 20 patients who received rehabilitation treatment at a hospital after having been diagnosed with stroke. The control group (n=10) received the general physiotherapy (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation), and the experimental group (n=10) applied the extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) to the injured limb after PNF treatment. This study used an integrated kinematics analyzer (4D-MT, Relive, Korea) to analyze walking, timed up and go test to evaluate the dynamic balance ability of patients, and MAS to evaluate the spasticity. In the study results, knee angle were significantly different in all groups(p<0.05) but there was no significant difference between the groups(p>0.05). In the study results, TUG were significantly different in all groups(p<0.05) but there was no significant difference between the groups(p>0.05). Based on the results of this study, I hope that more detailed research will proceed.

본 연구에는 편마비가 있는 뇌졸중 환자의 환측 경직성 하지에 체외 충격파 치료를 적용하여 보행 중 무릎각도와 MAS, TUG에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해서 실시하였다. 본 연구는 재활 병원에서 뇌졸중으로 진단받은 후 병원에서 재활치료를 받는 환자 20명을 연구대상자로 선정하였다. 대조군(n=10)은 일반적인 물리치료인 고유 수용성 감각 신경근 촉진법을 받았으며, 실험군(n=10)은 고유 수용성 감각 신경근 촉진법(PNF) 치료 후 체외 충격파 치료(ESWT)를 손상측 하지에 적용하였다. 본 연구에서 보행을 분석하기 위해 통합운동분석장치(4D-MT, Relive, Korea)를 사용하였으며 환자의 동적균형 능력을 평가하기 위해 Timed up and go test를 실시하였고 경련성을 평가하기 위해서 MAS를 사용하였다. 본 연구의 결과에서 무릎관절의 각도는 모든 그룹이 그룹 내 비교에서 통계학적으로 유의한 차이가 있었으나(p<0.05) 그룹 간에는 통계학적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). 본 연구의 결과에서 TUG는 모든 그룹이 그룹 내 비교에서 통계학적으로 유의한 차이가 있었으나(p<0.05) 그룹 간에는 통계학적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 보다 세분화된 연구가 진행되기를 바란다.
