The purpose of this study was examine the effect of self-exercise on patients with chronic arthritis. This study was performed from 1999 to 2001 with 107 subjects. Pain, Fatigue, Flexibility and Health status were measured. Data were analysed by SPSSWIN 10. 0 Package program, frequency, independent t-test and One Way ANOVA. The results were as follows : Of the 107 patients who were sutdied, mean age was 62 years and most of common disease were osteoarthritis. 67.4%was doing self-exercise and self-exercise consisted of 17 types of exercise. Fatigue was statistically different by disease type, duration of disease, education respectively. And fatigue, left shoulder flexibility were significantly different by duration of disease. There weren't significant differences between patient with self-exercise and patient without self-exercise on pain fatigue, flexibility and halth status. These findings confirms that self-exercise do not effective in increasing health improvement for the patients with osteoarthritis. From results of this study indicate that patients with arthritis should have taken systematic exercise such as the self-help education program aquatic exercise program for arthritis patient.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of Tai Chi exercise on muscle strength, grip strength, flexibility, pain, depression and self-efficacy in patients with osteoarthritis. Method: With a quasi-experimental design, 46 persons with osteoarthritis were assigned into an experimental group (n=22) or a control group (n=24). Muscle strength, grip strength, flexibility, pain, depression and self-efficacy were measured both before and after the exercise. Data were analyzed with SPSS WIN using descriptive statistics, t-test, and ANCOVA. Results: The mean age of the subjects was 68 years in the experimental group and 64 years in the control group. After controlling for age and pre-test outcome variables, muscle strength scores (F=-14.8, p= .00), grip strength scores (Rt: F=8.40, p= .01), and self-efficacy (F=47.3, p= .00) improved more in the experimental group than the control group. Joint pain scores (F=15.0, p= .00) and depression scores (F=14.7, p= .00) decreased in the experimental group. Conclusion: Tai Chi exercise is likely to be an effective nursing intervention to improve muscle strength, grip strength, and self-efficacy and reduce pain and depression for patients with osteoarthritis.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cushion insole on lumbar flexibility and motor fitness in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. 26 patients with lumbar spinal stenosis were randomly assigned to the experimental group 13 and the control group 13. Volunteers were allowed to wear cushioned insoles for two hours a day for six weeks. The experimental group was 8 mm and the control group was 4 mm, wearing a cushion insole as a blinded experiment. There was a significant increase(p<0.05) in the flexion test of the experimental group ($3.38{\pm}3.12$), but not statistically significant in the other tests(p>0.05). In conclusion, cushion insole was not suitable for intervention for lumbar spinal stenosis. There is a need to study the height and material of the insoles in the future.

본 발표에서는 OLED, LCD, E-ink 등에 적용되는 고품질 전도성 투명 산화막의 구조, 전기적 성질, 광학적 성질, 표면 거칠기 등에 미치는 공정 변수의 영향을 유연 기판 적용 사례를 들어서 설명한다. 특히 RF superimposed dc sputtering 방법으로 성장시킨 TCO의 특성이 현재 알려진 어떤 방법보다도 우수한 특성들과 유연 기판에 필수적인 내절성을 갖는 결과를 보여주고 있음에 주목하고 그 원리 및 대형화 가능성에 대해서 언급한다. 증착된 박막의 투습성 평가에서 측정 장비의 한계치 이하를 달성하였고 플라즈마를 이용한 중간 처리 과정의 효과로 PC, PET 등의 필름 기판에서도 우수한 성질을 갖는 박막의 성공적인 증착이 이루어 졌음을 설명한다. 여기에는 적절한 산소 분압의 유지가 관건이며 이미 재료연구소에서는 대형 타겟 시스템에 대해서 안정된 공정을 운영하고 있다. RF superimposed dc power의 특징은 타겟에서 반사되는 고속 중성 입자의 유속을 적절하게 제어할 수 있다는 점으로 판단되며 이는 주로 산소 원자와 산소 음이온의 에너지가 높다는 점에 주목할 필요가 있다. Carcia등의 보고에 따르면 산소 음이온의 경우에는 110 eV가 넘는 운동 에너지를 가지고 성장 중인 박막에 입사하여 결함을 생성한다고 한다. 이들 고속 입자들의 에너지를 낮추고 그 수를 감소시킬 수 있는 방법 중의 하나가 RF superimposed dc라고 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was try to check the change of a subjective evaluation about the life function fitness and health-related quality of life by executing the home support exercise program three times a week for total 16 weeks with elderly women that are order than 70 years old. The experiment group(total : 17 people, mean age : 79.4) and the control group(total : 17 people, mean age : 80.7) live Yeonje-gu in Busan city, and they don't have any physical injury and any inconvenience to move. and they are all composed of elderly women who agree to participate in this study. We carried out an analysis of covariance with SAS 9.2 statistics package. These are the results from it. First, the experiment group showed statistically significant increase(p<.001) in lifting dumbbells, repeatedly standing up and sitting down, 2.24m shuttle running, walking at the same place for 2 minutes. Second, there was no particular effect with the experiment group in flexibility(catching hands with their backs leaned against each other). This result point out that there is a need of supplementation like adding exercise item which can improve flexibility to home support exercise program. Third, there was no particular difference between the experiment group and the control group in 8 sub-factors with the subjective evaluation about health-related quality of life through SF-36. However, there the bodily pain and vitality sub-factors of experiment group was better than that of the control group with p<.10 level, so we considered this result showed us the positive effect slightly.
