Abstract

Objective : This systematic review aimed to investigate the impact of transcranial direct current stimulation combined with constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) in patients with stroke Methods : PubMed and NDSL databases were employed to review literature published between January 2009 and December 2018. The main search terms were "Transcranial direct current stimulation" or "tDCS," "Constraint-induced movement therapy" or "CIMT," "Upper extremity function," "Upper limb," and "Stroke." Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 6 articles were selected. Furthermore, intervention effects on upper extremity function, activities of daily living, and cortical activity were assessed. Results : The current intensity, application time, and protocol of the CIMT varied the between studies. However, the intervention procedures to perform CIMT immediately after transcranial direct current stimulation was the same. Transcranial direct current stimulation combined with CIMT was effective in improving upper limb function and activities of daily living in patients with stoke and had a significant effect on cerebral cortex activation. Conclusions : This study provides information on transcranial direct current stimulation combined with CIMT for use by clinical therapists. Further studies are needed to standardize the stimulation time, current intensity, and electrode attachment position. Furthermore, randomized controlled trials, including long-term follow up, are needed for larger populations using the most appropriate CIMT protocol.

목적 : 경두개 직류 자극과 강제 유도 운동 치료의 결합된 중재를 적용한 뇌졸중 환자의 회복과 관련된 연구 동향을 알아보고, 중재 계획 시, 도움이 될 수 있는 정보 및 근거를 제시하는 데 목적이 있다. 연구방법 : 전자 데이터베이스 PubMed, NDSL 등을 이용하여 2009년 1월부터 2018년 12월까지 10년간 온라인 데이터에 등록된 논문을 검색하였다. 주요 검색어로 'Transcranial direct current stimulation' or 'tDCS', 'Constraint-induced movement therapy' or 'CIMT', 'Upper extremity function', 'Upper limb', 'Stroke'을 혼용하여 사용하여 본 연구의 선정기준과 배제기준에 부합하는 6편의 논문을 최종 선정하여 분석하였다. 결과 : 경두개 직류 자극의 적용 전류의 세기, 적용시간 등과 강제 유도 운동 치료의 프로토콜은 다양한 방법으로 이루어져 있었지만, 경두개 직류 자극 직 후 CIMT를 시행하는 중재 절차는 동일하게 시행되었다. 중재 효과를 알아보기 위해 상지기능, 일상생활동작, 대뇌피질 활성도 평가 등이 사용되었다. 경두개직류 자극과 강제 유도 운동 치료의 결합된 중재는 뇌졸중 환자의 상지기능과 일상생활동작 개선에 효과적인 것으로 나타났으며, 대뇌피질의 활성화에도 유의미한 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 결론 : 본 연구를 통해 경두개 직류 자극과 강제 유도 운동 치료의 결합된 중재 적용에 필요한 정보 제공 및 근거를 마련하였다. 추후 연구를 통해, 경두개 직류 자극의 자극시간과 전류의 세기, 전극의 부착 위치 등에 대한 일반화가 필요할 것이며 가장 적절한 강제 유도 운동 치료 프로토콜을 사용하여 큰 모집단을 대상으로 장기간 추적 관찰을 포함한 무작위 대조군 실험연구가 필요하다.
