PURPOSE: It is known that work stress was linked to WRMDs in workplace. The purpose of this study was to identify the characteristics of work related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMDs) related to job stress among prosthetists and orthotists. METHODS: Eighty-six self-reported symptoms of discomfort (SRSD) and job stress were collected by questionnaire and analyzed. RESULTS: The results were as follows: Over 70% of respondents had WRMDs. The shoulder was the most painful region and each of "within 15 minutes", "once a week" and "severe moving or doing exercise" items were main characteristics in the SRSD. Finally, the "repetition of simple work" item in job stress ranked as resulting in "often discomfort" in over 43% of respondents. Additionally, there was a statistically significant correlation between job stress and pain intensity (p<.05, $r_s$=.36). CONCLUSION: Further studies are needed to identify the factors affecting musculoskeletal symptoms and job stress of prosthetists and orthotists in Korea.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify factors related with demographic and work characteristics that affect musculoskeletal pain and quality of life among personal assistants for people with severe disabilities. Methods: The subjects were recruited among personal assistant for people with severe disabilities who participated in refresher training held in K-si, Gyeonggi-do Province through convenience sampling. Using a survey instrument developed by the authors, subjects responded to questionnaires concerning muscluloskeletal pain and quality of life. The collected data was analyzed using SPSS 21.0. Basically, collected data was analyzed in terms of frequency, t-test or ANOVA and multiple regression analysis. Results: Total years of work experience and subjective physical workload were associated with the number of pain sites and intensity. Additionally, for quality of life, subjective physical workload was related in the regression model. Conclusions: Based on this study, we identified that characteristics of work affected the musculoskeletal pain and quality of life of personal assistants for the severely disabled, and suggested improvement of the working environment, including musculoskeletal pain prevention education programs during the refresher education for assistants to the severely disabled.

Purpose: The objectives of this study were to investigate the current status of the pain in and the dysfunction related to the musculoskeletal system experienced by patients with end-stage renal failure receiving hemodialysis. Methods: A questionnaire survey was given to 107 patients undergoing hemodialysis in M Hospital. The survey was conducted by using a brief pain inventory(BPI) to investigate the body parts in pain, degree of pain, difficulty in daily life, correlation with hemodialysis and the degree of satisfaction with their own health. Results: The investigation of the patients undergoing hemodialysis showed that 89(83.2%) of the 107 patients experienced pain in their musculoskeletal system. Their pain's incidence was highest in the knees(46.1%) and 68.5% of the patients reported that the most severe pain they had experienced within the past 24 hours was at a level between "moderate" and "severe." The limitation of daily life by pain is high most as 47.7% in the accomplishment of works. Conclusion: Most hemodialysis patients experience musculoskeletal related pain that affects their daily life. Hemodialysis patient management programs should include an assessment and management of such pain.

The purpose of this study aim to analyze factors that influence the job satisfaction of physical therapist in working in Elderly Care Facilities. The participants were 173 physical therapist was using a self-administered questionnaire. Data was collected from June 12 to 15, 2012 and analyzed by SPSS 12.0. The average physical therapist's job satisfaction was $3.27{\pm}.49$ points. There was significant difference according to work motivation in job satisfaction. 83.4% of participants felt pain. The major causes of the pain were 'repeating the same job constantly(25.5%).' There were statistically significant correlations between pain on movement patterns(r=-.163, p<0.01), duration of pain(r=-.174, p<0.01) and job satisfaction. Multiple regression analysis revealed that job satisfaction became significantly high with work motivation is more definitely. It is necessary to develop job satisfaction management program and musculoskeletal pain policy for physical therapist.

Purpose : The purpose of the present study was to describe the prevalence and causes of occurrence on work-related musculoskeletal disorders(WMSDs) in physical therapist. Methods : Self-administered questionnaires were distributed by mail to 100 physical therapists in Daegu city. 85 of the questionnaires were returned and 80 of them except 5 unclearly answered ones were analyzed. Results : They felt the pain at shoulders(80%), lower back(74%), wrists(71%), neck(70%), elbow(48%), finger(40%). The major causes of the pain were "repeating the same job constantly(93%)," and "bending wrists too much and doing things that require excessive strength(90%)." It was significant different more Exercise therapist than modality therapist. Conclusion : We suggest that physical therapist for exercise therapy need the development and applies of various program for prevention of work-related musculoskeletal disorders.

Background: The aim of the study is to examine whether mediating or moderating effects of stress between teachers' work environment and work-related musculoskeletal disorders. Methods: Two hundred nine participants took part in the study and completed the surveys including work environment, stress and work-related musculoskeletal disorders questionnaires. Hayes's PROCESS macro was used to test the research models for mediating and moderating effects of stress between work environment with teachers and work-related musculoskeletal disorders. Indirect effect was tested using bootstrapped confidence intervals. Results: The result confirmed that Stress served as a indirect mediator between work environment and work-related musculoskeletal disorders, whereas there was no significant the moderating effect. Conclusion: Stress mediates the relationship between work environment and work-related musculoskeletal disorders. Therefore, it is crucial that teachers' work environment that increases stress should be enhanced to reduce work-related musculoskeletal disorders.

목적: 골격계는 전이성 암에 의해 흔히 영향을 받는 부위이다. 본 연구를 통해 하지에서 발생한 전이성 병적 골절에 대한 치료로서 잠김 금속판을 이용한 치료 결과에 대해 알아보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 2004년부터 2010년까지 하지에 발생한 전이성 암에 의한 병적 골절에 대하여 잠김 금속판을 이용하여 치료받은 12명(13예)의 환자를 대상으로 평가를 시행하였다. 평균 환자 나이는 62.2세(50-81세)였으며, 골절은 각각 근위 대퇴골 2예, 대퇴골 간부 3예, 원위 대퇴골 3예, 근위 경골 4예, 원위 대퇴골 1예에서 발생하였다. 치료 결과로서 휠체어 보행 가능 시기, 통증 완화 정도 및 합병증을 평가하였으며, 또한 수술 시간 및 술 후 실혈량에 대하여 평가하였다. 결과: 수술 후부터 휠체어 보행까지는 평균 3.2일(1-6일)이 소요되었다. 평균 시각 통증 척도는 수술 전 8.1점(7-9점)에서 술 후 1주일째 2.7점(2-4점)으로 호전되었으며, 수술과 연관된 조기 합병증은 발생하지 않았다. 평균 수술 시간은 88.4분(70-105분)이었으며, 술후 평균 실혈량은 246.5 ml (130-320 ml)이었다. 결론: 하지의 전이성 병적 골절에 대한 치료로서, 잠김 금속판을 이용한 내고정술은 심한 골 파괴나 골 결손을 보이는 장골의 골간단부 혹은 골간부 병변에 효과적인 치료 방법이며, 또한 조기 보행을 가능하게 하고, 통증 및 술후 합병증 감소에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.

간엽성 연골육종은 전형적인 연골육종과는 달리 매우 드문 것으로 알려져 있으며, 골격계 부위에서는 하지, 특히 대퇴골에서 대부분 발생하며, 다음으로 두안면부, 골반부에서 발생하는 것으로 보고되어 왔다. 11세 남아가 좌측 후족부 통증으로 타 병원에서 양성 골 종양 추정 하에 수술적 제거술을 시행 받고, 수술 후 조직검사 결과, 악성 종양으로 진단되어, 본원으로 전원 되었다. 조직 재 판독 결과, 좌측 종골 간엽성 연골 육종으로 진단되어, 슬하부 절단을 시행하였다. 외래 경과 관찰 중 술 후 3개월에 흉부 컴퓨터 촬영상 다발성 폐 전이성 결절 소견 보여 전이절제술 및 항암 치료를 시행하였다. 문헌상 간엽성 연골육종이 족저부 연부 조직에 발생한 경우는 1예가 있으나 종골 골조직에 발생한 경우는 없어 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

척추 추간판의 퇴화과정에서 발생하는 추간판성 통증은 근골격계의 난치성 질환이다. 이 질환은 현대 의학이 다루는 일반적 질환들과는 달리 객관적인 영상학적, 임상병리학적 지표로 확진되지 않는다. 그리고 현재의 기술로는 근본적인 치료법도 존재하지 않는다. 이 연구는 추간판성 통증치료를 위해 실시되는 신경차단술, 추간판 내열치료술, 수핵성형술 등 여러 중재시술법들의 치료적 근거가 타당성이 있는지, 그리고 각 기법들의 개발과정에서 전임상적 시험과 같은 안전성 검토가 충실히 이행되었는지를 문헌검토를 통해 분석하였다. 그 결과 치료적 근거가 객관적으로 검증된, 추간판성 통증의 중재시술 방법은 아직 없는 것으로 추정된다. 그리고 기술 개발과정에서 시술의 안전성에 대한 검토를 위해 필요한 전임상적 시험의 단계를 적절히 갖추지 않은 중재시술법의 사례들도 발견된다. 결론적으로, 아직까지 선명한 치료적 근거를 가진, 추간판성 통증에 대한 중재시술법은 없으므로, 임상에서 시술여부를 판단할 때는 보다 신중한 접근이 필요하다는 인식이 필요하며, 안전성에 대한 검토를 충실히 갖추지 않은 채 실시되어온 것으로 판단되는 일부 중재시술법들에 대해선 의료윤리적 문제가 제기될 수 있다.
