The purpose of this study is to provide guidelines for effective osteoarthritis passive aquatic rehabilitation program and form of exercise prescription through passive aquatic rehabilitation exercise for 24 weeks for women with osteoarthritis. The subjects of this study were the passive aquatic rehabilitation group (CG, n = 10) and the control group (AREG, n = 10) among the subjects who had been diagnosed with osteoarthritis by the K orthopedic surgeon and visited the hospital more than 3 times were selected. The results of this study showed that the change of shoulder height in the group was significantly different in passive aquatic rehabilitation exercise group (p <.001). There were significant differences in passive aquatic rehabilitation exercise group (p <.001) between the groups with inhaled sacpula patterns. Changes in the pelvis patterns inferior pattern of the left and right pelvis patterns in the group were significantly different in passive aquatic rehabilitation exercise group (p <.001).

The purpose of this study is to develop systematical components and implementation of rehabilitation physical activity by analyzing the relative importance among each factor. To achieve the purpose of this study, 20 participants were selected, and they consisted of instructors and adapted physical activity teachers and professional who have experiences in institutes and hospital where have operate program related to rehabilitation physical activity and adapted physical activity program. Delphi technique was conducted for three times by the participants. For the decision of priorities about improvement factors, AHP was performed. The results were as follows. As the result of this study, the factors of the rehabilitation physical activity consisted of six type of exercise; fitness, psychological exercise, aquatic exercise, sense & perception exercise, ambulatory exercise, and motor skills. Also, 21 sub-factors were also extracted. The result from analyzing the priorities of factors was fitness 33.2%, aquatic exercise 20.6%, psychological exercise 16.3%, sense & perception exercise 11.7%, ambulatory exercise 10.8% and motor skills 8.6%. Also, among results from the weighted state of priority factors, muscular strength and endurance were the most importance factor which had 23.4% weighting, and meditation was the least importance factor which had 0.5% weighting.

The purpose of this study is to find out how underwater rehabilitation exercises affect physical fitness and blood lipids for 10 weeks and provide basic data to help prevent middle-aged women from cardiovascular diseases. The subjects of this study were middle-aged women living in Seoul, Korea. The underwater rehabilitation exercise was performed for 1 week and 3 times for 10 weeks, and the exercise time was 60 minutes for 1 time including the warm up, the main exercise and the cool down. The exercise intensity was set at 60-70% of the heart rate reserve calculated from the pre-exercise test. The measurement variables were physical fitness and blood lipid. In the data processing, descriptive statistics were presented for each measurement item and a 2-way RGRM ANOVA was conducted to examine the interaction effects between groups. The results have shown significant interaction effects in physical fitness(Flexibility, Cardiorespiratory Endurance, Muscular Endurance) and the blood lipids(TG, TC, HLD-C, LDL-C). This study found that the 10-week underwater rehabilitation exercise program of middle-aged women increased physical fitness level and decreased and increased blood lipid, which could be an effective and convergent program to prevent and reduce cardiovascular disease.

The purpose of this study was to comparison the effects of aqua-and-land based obstacle training on balance of chronic stroke patients. Subjects were randomly divided into an aqua group(n=15) and d land group(n=15). Both group received obstacle training for 40 minutes, 3 times a week during 12 weeks. Static balance was assessed by measuring the mean velocity of mediolateral, anteroposterior and sway area with the eyes open using Good Balance System. Dynamic balance was assessed by measuring Functional Reaching Test(FRT) and the Timed Up and Go test(TUG). Following the intervention, both groups showed significant changes static balance(the mean velocity of mediolateral, anteroposterior and sway area) and dynamic balance(FRT and TUG). There were significant difference in the mean velocity of mediolateral, anteroposterior, sway area, FRT and TUG between the two groups after the interventions. The results of this study suggest that the aqua group and land group were increase balance functions of chronic stroke patients. The aqua group was significantly higher than the land group for patients with chronic stroke patients. We hope that aquatic training can be useful for patients with chronic stroke patients to improve balance functions and the aqua training research for improve balance functions will be conducted continuously.

This study was performed to explore the effects of aqua-exercise program on back pain, flexibility. time of exercise and self-efficacy in the women with chronic back pain. The design of this study was a equivalent pre-post test experiment. The subjects consisted of 31 women living in seoul. They underwent tests of back pain. flexibility. time of exercise and self-efficacy as baseline data before aqua-exercise program. The aquatic exercise was based on the Back hab and was consists of 60minutes session, 2 times a week for 5 weeks. Data were analyzed with percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test and pearson correlation coefficient using SAS program. The results were as follows. 1. The back pain has significantly decreased after aqua-exercise program. 2. The dorsal flexibility has significantly increased after aqua-exercise program. 3. The time of exercise has significantly increased after aqua-exercise program. 3. The Self-efficacy has significantly increased after aqua-exercise program. The findings showed the aqua-exercise program could be effective in decreasing the back pain and effective in increasing the flexibility, time of exercise and self-efficacy. It can be suggested the aqua-exercise is effective in the health promotion of the women with chronic back pain.

The purpose of this study was to determined the converge effects of combined exercise rehabilitation on lower limb muscular function and cytokines in taekwondo player with patellofemoral pain syndrome. In this study, combined exercise rehabilitation(aquatic exercise 3 times a week, resistance exercise 2 times a week) was performed and 20 collegiate taekwondo player with patellofemoral pain syndrome(control group: n=10, combined exercise rehabilitation group: n=10) were participated for 8 weeks. Statistical significance verification was carried out by a two - way ANOVA repeated measures design as a mixture using the SPSS 18.0 program. The statistically significant level was set at 0.05. The results of this study were as following. Peak torque was higher significantly in extensor(p<.001) and flexor(p<.01) at $60^{\circ}/sec$ in the combined exercise rehabilitation group than the control group over combined exercise treatment period. Average power was higher significantly in extensor muscles at $180^{\circ}/sec$ in the combined exercise rehabilitation group than the control group over combined exercise treatment period.(p<.01). The variable of TNF-a was higher significantly in the combined exercise rehabilitation group than the control group as over combined exercise treatment period. Therefore, it can be concluded that a combined exercise rehabilitation program is effective in improving the lower limb muscular function and TNF-a in Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome patient.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of aquatic rehabilitation program on gross motor function measure and balance in children with cerebral palsy. Methods : Subjects of this study, among the children who received the diagnosis cerebral palsy, for children total of 14 people have agreed to research. Cerebral palsy of 14 chilidren were applied to aquatic rehabilitation program. The training courses 30 minutes 3 times weekly, examined the changes in gross motor function ability to examine a total of 4-week course effectively. Result : The results of this study is First, 14 cerebral palsy appeared a significant difference in GMFM-C, GMFM-D and GMFM-E(p<.01). Secondly, 14 cerebral palsy appeared a significant difference appeared in the balance capability after the experiment(p<.01). Conclusion : It is possible that the application of aquatic rehabilitation program is to effective in improvement of gross motor function measure and balance ability to children with cerebral palsy.
