본 연구에서는 배낭 어깨끈의 압박에 의한 통증과 신경 및 혈관압박을 감소시키기 위해 배낭 어깨끈의 압박부위 개선방안을 제안하고 이 배낭이 두가지 국부적 discomfort를 감소시키는 효과를 실험을 통해 평가하였다. 어깨끈 변형을 통해 등세모근 윗쪽부위 및 대흉근 바깥쪽부위의 압박을 대흉근 안쪽부위, 등세모근 중간부위 및 견갑골부위로 이동시키고 어깨끈과 등세모근 윗쪽부위는 접촉하지 않도록 하는 방안이 제안되었다. 실험결과 압박에 의한 통증과 신경 및 혈관압박의 정도가 어깨끈의 압박부위가 개선된 배낭에서 기존배낭보다 상대적으로 적은 것으로 평가되었으며 총체적인 선호도도 어깨끈의 압박부위가 개선된 배낭이 더 높았다. 보조적으로 배낭 착용시의 생리학적 부하정도를 측정한 결과, 개선된 배낭이 생리학적 부하를 효과적으로 감소시키지는 못하는 것으로 나타났으나 주관적 안락도 평가에서는 오히려 우수하였다. 이상이 결과는 본 연구에서 제안한 압박부위 개선배낭이 배낭 착용시의 안락도 결정에 있어 상대적으로 중요도가 높은 국부적 discomfort측면에서 기존배낭보다 우수하여, 생리학적 부하 측면에서는 개서효과가 없음에도 불구하고 전체적 안락도의 향상에 성공한 것으로 분석된다.

Mammography, the basic test for finding and treating increased breast cancer, gives the anxiety of cancer and radiation exposure to most women. In addition, it gave very severe compression pain, so we studied the degree of pain and tried to reduce the pain. The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the modified imaging technique and the basic imaging technique based on clinical experience, respectively. The subjects of this study were 160 women from 30 to 60 years old who visited to Seoul Boramae Hospital operated by Seoul National University Hospital from February to March 2017 for breast screening. Modified 80 persons and 80 persons were divided into two groups, and each group was asked to fill out questionnaires sequentially without knowing the subjects. The first method is a modified method in which an automatic pedal is divided into four or more presses, a manual pressure is used together, and an attitude is described in detail. Secondly, we used only the automatic pedal compression method and press it within 1-3 times. In the mean of the pain distribution, the experimental group (modified method) was 2.49 and the control group (basic method) had an average of 4.86, which showed 48.8% less pain. In this modified method, the pain scores of the experimental group were lower than those of the control group, and the degree of the pain was statistically significant.

Recently, incorrect and unhealthy postures have become increasingly prevalent due to reasons such as smartphone use. Consequently, imbalanced muscle contraction occurs. In particular, if the oblique muscle is contracted, the accessory nerve will be compressed, causing ischemic pain in the upper trapezius muscle. To investigate the effect on pain in the upper trapezius muscle, this study applied the ischemic compression method to the accessory nerve capture point at the 1/3-point of the oblique cervical muscle. In this study, the ischemic compression method was applied to eight women twice a week for four weeks, and pain was evaluated before, immediately after, and three weeks after application. The visual analogue scale, McGill Pain Questionnaire, and pressure dynamometer were used to evaluate subjects' pain. As a result of this study, it was confirmed that the pain was significantly reduced after treatment, and that the pain reduction was still effective three weeks after completion of the intervention, indicating that the intervention on the accessory nerve compression point on the oblique cervical muscle was both effective and long-lasting for pain reduction in the upper trapezius muscle. Future studies should increase the number of subjects to check not only pain reduction in the upper trapezius muscle, but also improvement of neck function.

The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of mammo pad made of different kinds of materials on the reduced inconvenience and compression pains of patients to examine plausible interchangeability of existing pads made of single kind of material, and to examine the changes in pains of patients taking mammography and various factors therein. The high-hardness and highly-elastic mammo pressure pads, capable of replacing existing mammo pad of "H" company, were manufactured, and the display quality of mammography obtained from respective mammo pad were compared to each other to appraise the availability of manufactured mammo pad. In addition, 200 patients, who came to a general hospital in Seoul, were selected as subjects for the survey employing a questionnaire which was distributed to the subjects from December 2018 to March 2020 to identify the factors involved with the mammo pad of patients while taking mammography. The results of mammography obtained from both of the existing and newly manufactured mammo pad revealed appropriate display qualities fell within the range of clinical criteria. Besides, the factors associated with changing compression pains of patients taking mammography were analyzed wherefrom the general factors in the following order of age, height, and BMI index appeared, while the experiential and female factors appeared as in the following order: presence of menstruation, experience of child-birth, experience of breast feeding, menopause, grade of breast, shape of breast, and experience of mammography. In conclusion, the following factors comprising the age, experience of breast feeding, experience of mammography, and menopause rendered approximately 54% of power of explaining the degree of changing pains during mammography. Regarding the changes in compression pains while taking mammography, the increasing experience of mammography of patients rendered approximately 0.26 times more at the intermediate range of compression pains and approximately 0.14 times more at the range of severe pains.

This study was conducted to identify the effects of pressure taping between tibia and fibula of High Ankle Sprain athletes on pain, Range of Motion(ROM), and strength and to provide basic data for rehabilitation programs. The subjects of the study were conducted with a total of 10 athletes except for four who gave up who were diagnosed with high ankle sprain, or who were diagnosed with ankle sprain but their physical examinations proved positive. The results showed no significant differences in pain(Visual Analog Scale, VAS). The ROM was significantly increased in inversion(IV) and eversion(EV) in both groups. The Isometric strength was significantly improved in IV(0°, 7°, 14°) and EV(0°) in Taping Group(TG). When taping was applied to athletes with injury to the High Ankle Sprain, ROM and muscle strength improved at the same pain level.

목 디스크는 경추(목뼈) 사이의 디스크가 삐져나오거나, 뼈조직이 비정상적으로 자라 목으로 지나가는 척추신경을 압박하여 통증이 발생하는 질환이다. 목디스크는 뒷목 통증부터 저림, 감각 둔화 등의 증상이 서서히 나타나기 때문에 환자 스스로 질환을 자각하기가 쉽지 않아 적절한 치료시기를 놓치는 경우가 많다. 그러나 목디스크는 중증으로 발전할 경우 중추신경 마비로 인한 호흡곤란, 전신마비 등 치명적인 증상을 일으키기도 하므로 주의해야 한다.

Cardiac arrest is a series of conditions occur when the heart is stopped, regardless of the cause. one of the only ways to save a patient's life in the event of cardiac arrest is cardiopulmonary resuscitation, which is very important beacause it can maintain circulation through this technique, and high-quality CPR affects the survival rate and neurological prognosis of the patient. For infant cardiopulmonary resuscitation, use two finger to compress the chest. Hower, this method can be diffcult to reach the chest commpressions recommended by the American Heart Association because of the anatomically increased fatigue of the fingers and diffculty of vertical pressure. The study aims to verify the effects of new chest compressions in the implementation of chest compressions during infant cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The study also showed singnificant differences in chest depth and average rate of pressure(p<0.001). Based on the results of this study, we can see that the accuracy of the new chest compressions during infant cardiopulmonary resuscitation is increased, and the depth of chest compressions is improved, improving the quality index of chest compressions.
