본 연구는 목과 상지의 누적외상성장애를 호소하는 대상자들중에서 근막동통증후군으로 진단받은 환자군과 단순 증상호소군인 대조군사이에서 검사결과의 분석을 통하여 집단 검진시 고려해 볼 수 있는 검사항목을 찾고자하였다. 조사대상은 컴퓨터를 통한 자료검색 및 대화형태의 업무를 하는 여성 전화교환원 904명이었으며, 근막동통증후군으로 진단받은 105명의 환자군과 상지의 누적외상성장애의 증상만을 호소하는 550명의 대조군을 비교하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 신체계측과 악력 및 Pinch strength 측정결과, 키와 몸무게, 앉은 자세의 높이 등에서는 환자군과 대조군의 차이가 없었으나, 약력은 환자군의 우측손이 대조군보다 유의하게 낮았으며, Pinch strength는 두 군간의 유의한 차이는 없었다. 2. 시각적 상사척도는 환자군의 평균값이 $6.74{\pm}2.29$이며, 대조군은 $4.37{\pm}2.32$으로 나타나 두 군간 뚜렷한 차이를 보였다. 3. 근육효소검사에서는 비정상으로 분류된 이상자의 분포가 환자군과 대조군에서 유사한 분포를 보여 실제 진단과정에 미치는 영향은 미비한 것으로 나타났다. 4. 다중 로지스틱 회귀분석을 이용한 유의한 변수는 나이, 우측 상부승모근의 압통역치값과 시각적 상사척도로 나타났다. 5. 압통역치검사와 시각적 상사척도는 근막동통증후군의 진단에 객관적 검사로서 고려할 만한 검사로 나타났다.

Purpose: This research was for checking the effect of meridian massage on the reduction of pain and subjective symptoms of myofascial pain syndrome. Method: The method of the research was interruptive time series design. The research objects are 25 hospital workers with myofascial pain syndrome at B hospital in Busan from July 22, 2002 to August 18, 2002. SPSS Win 10.0 was used for data analysis, paired t-test and repeated measures ANOVA for hypothesis test. Result: The recipients of meridian massage felt less pain than before(F=12.587, p=.000). The recipients of meridian massage felt less often than before (F=6.705, p=.001). The recipients of meridian massage got lower score on subjective symptoms of myofascial pain than before(F=12.857, p=.000). The recipients of meridian massage had lower blood pressure than before(systolic blood pressure; t=4.697, p=.000, diastolic blood pressure; t=3.426, p=.002). The recipients of meridian massage did not get the lower number of pulse than before(t=0.33, p=.744). Conclusion: The above results show that meridian massage is effective on the reduction of pain and subjective symptoms of myofascial pain syndrome and makes stable the blood pressure. Therefore meridian massage can be apply as the effective intervention for the reduction of pain and subjective symptoms of myofascial pain syndrome.

목적 : 이 연구의 목적은 스트레칭이 노인의 경부 통증과 관절가동범위에 미치는 영향을 알아보는데 있다. 방법 : 치료에 따른 전, 후 경추 굴곡 신전 패턴을 이용한 스트레칭이 목의 관절가동범위 변화와 통증변화에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 20명(남자 10명, 여자 10명)을 대상으로 치료 전, 치료 4주 후에 얻은 측정치를 대응 t-검정을 사용하여 분석하였다. 결과 : 치료 4주후 통증수치, 경추 관절 굴곡, 신전, 좌회전, 우회전 변화는 유의한 감소를 보였다. 결론 : 스트레칭이 노인 경부근막동통증후군 환자의 관절가동범위 증가와 통증 감소에 효과적이라는 것을 확인하였다.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the effects of myofascial pain syndrome on shoulder pain, range of motion, and body composition around the shoulder in middle-aged women. Methods: A total of 72 women participated in the randomized controlled trial. The subjects were grouped into an experimental group (n=39) and a control group (n=33). The experimental group received a resistance exercise program using an elastic band for 8 weeks, 3 days a week. The control group followed a normal daily for 8 weeks. Measurements were conducted three times; before the experimental treatment (pre-test), the 2nd and 8th weeks after treatment. Results: Regarding the general characteristics and homogeneity of the dependent variables, there were no significant differences between the two groups, except for the thickness of the left and right muscles and the left fat. After treatment, shoulder pain was significantly different between the two groups (F=18.54, p<.001) and the range of shoulder motion was significantly different (left, F=86.70, p<.001; right, F=98.66, p<.001). Furthermore, there were a significant differences in the thickness of muscles between the two groups (left, F=40.20, p<.001; right, F=29.57, p<.001); however, the thickness of fat was not significantly different. Conclusion: The resistance exercise program reduces shoulder pain and improves the range of motion of the shoulder joint and increases muscle mass on around the shoulder. It suggests to conduct a study to confirm the long-term exercise effect.

In the treatment of hemifacial spasm, the operative methods, such as neurovascular decompression, rhizotomy etc. are the most efficacious therapy on its control. But, due to some side effects and complication, pharmacotherapy has been the first attempted by first intention of hemifacial spasm. The carbamazepine is the most commonly used agent, however it is often inefficacious in some cases, and attenuates as the time passes, engages in some symptoms, such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and causes an aplastic anemia, it has many deficiencies in becoming the first intention. Acupuncture is a simple, effective and conservative spasm control modality. It is so simple to use in hemifacial spasm. We had observed 3 cases of hemifacial spasm which were treated by acupuncture in Oriental clinic recently. We reported these cases and reviewed related literatures briefly. The results of treatment are as follows; The clinical conditions of spasm intensity was improved after the therapy. These results suggest that acupuncture and negative therapy be effective as the first intention in healing hemifacial spasm.

The purpose of this review was to examine the clinical characteristics of patients who had a diagnosis of Myofascial Pain Syndrome(MPS). Myofascial pain is a painful condition of skeletal muscle characterized by the presence of one or more trigger points. A trigger point(TrP) is a focus of hyperirritability in a tissues. Of the patients with MPS, 21(44.7 %) were male and 26(55.3 %) were female. The mean duration of MPS was 9.6 months for males and 11.3 months for females. Trigger points with associated referred patterns of pain were found in muscles of the post neck(trapezius, infrasupinatus) and in quadratus lumborum muscle. Patients reported increased fatigue(87.2 %), tingling sensation(66.0 %), numbness(66.0 %), tension(55.3 %), anxiety(44.7 %), headache (59.6 %), pilomotor activation(59.6 %).

The purpose of this study was to exame the pain relief effects of myofascial pain syndrome patient by Post-Isometric Relaxation. From July, 1996 to January, 1997, PIR was applied to myofascial pain syndrome associated with musculoskelatal lesions and was examed on 17 muscles in 98 patients at Sun General Hospital, Taejon city. The results of this study were as follows ; 1. Immediate pain relief group was 58(59%). 2. Only tenderness relief group was 24(25%). 3. No effect group was 16(16%). These results could be confirmed that the increased tension of the affected muscles with the resulting pain relieved by restoring the full stretch length of the muscle by PIR.
