The objective of this study was to discover the effects of the short-term home visiting physical therapy program involving patients with some chronic brain disorders at Gimhae City, Kyongnam. Recovery of activities of daily living (ADL) is a very important factor of rehabilitative procedures, and Functional Independence Measure (FIM) is a useful standard of evaluation for it. The FIM is widely used in brain disorder research because it measures real functional activities of daily living. We applied the physical therapy exercise program twice per week (10~15 times repeatedly); a warm-up and cool down exercise performed every ten minutes by active & active-assistive ROM and stretching exercises. Main exercises were composed of getting up & laying down in bed, standing training, walking exercise in the room, and window or wall sliding exercise using affected upper limbs for a total duration of 30 minutes. We collected the data from 20 patients with chronic brain disorders at his/her home and analyzed by means of SPSS/PC+ program (Ver. 10.0). After the six week long physical therapy exercise program, the average was $56.10{\pm}22.59$ point compared with initial $50.55{\pm}19.12$ point by FIM, improved functional ADL ability about 5.55 point, and these changed scores were statistically significant (p=.000). We also studied another factor regarding patient's satisfaction. The majority of subjects (10 people) rated the program with the maximum score of ten points (50.0%), and three people rated it a seven point program (15.0%), the other two subjects gave a rating of nine and eight points (10.0%). Because the program was effective at improving the physical ADL ability and satisfaction of each subject, we suggest continual development and implementation of a home visiting physical therapy program. Further study should involve a longer period of observation with a larger population that is involved in an individually designed home physical therapy program.

Purpose: This study identified the effects of dual-task gait training on balance, gait function, and activity of daily living in patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods: This study used a single-subject design. Two patients with Parkinson's disease participated in this study. Dual-task gait training was performed 1 hour per day 8 times during intervention phase. The subjects were measured 8 times in the baseline phase, 8 times in the intervention phase, and 8 times in the follow-up phase. The outcome measurements included a timed up and go test (TUG), a Berg balance scale (BBS), a 10 meter walk test (10MWT), a 6 minute walk test (6MWT), a dynamic gait index (DGI) and a Korean modified Barthel index (K-MBI). Results: When compared to the average of the baseline process, the data collected during the intervention period showed that the TUG and 10MWT results improved and the tendency line was above the baseline. In addition, BBS, 6MWT, DGI, and K-MBI values for both patients increased remarkably after the training. Conclusion: The results of this study revealed that dual-task gait training may be helpful to improve balance, walking function, and activity of daily living for patients with Parkinson's disease. Further studies need to confirm our findings.

PURPOSE: This study was conducted to determine the effect of patient-selected, task-oriented training on activities of daily living, quality of life, and depression for stroke patients. METHODS: This study included 40 stroke subjects, randomly assigned to either an experimental group or a control group. Both the experimental group and the control group included 20 stroke patients. Patients from the experimental group selected and performed task-oriented training. In the exercise program, the patient chose two categories from six categories and trained for 30 minutes a day, three times a week, for four weeks. Patients from the control group performed conventional task-oriented training. Outcomes were measured using the Korean version of a modified Barthel Index (K-MBI), the Korean Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (K-IADL), the Stroke-specific Quality of Life (SS-QOL), the Short Form 8 (SF-8), and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), both before and after training. RESULTS: There were significant differences between the before- and after-intervention data of the K-MBI and the K-IADL (p<.05) for both groups. Also, there were more significant improvements in the experimental group compared to the control group (p<.05) for the SS-QOL, SF-8 and BDI. CONCLUSION: The results of this study showed that patients-selected, task-oriented training had positive effects on stroke patients' activities of daily living, quality of life, and depression.

Purpose : This study compared the cost-effectiveness ratio of physical therapy in health centers and home physical therapy, two physical therapy methods for home-bound stroke patients, and clarified the economic validity regarding the effect of home physical therapy. Methods : To measure and compare the cost and effectiveness of the two physical therapy methods for stroke patients, subjects were recruited based on in-hospital and home physical therapy. Among the entire data collected, 82 and 90 participants were selected for in-hospital and home physical therapy, respectively. To measure costs, regarding both in-hospital and home physical therapy, direct cost and indirect cost for patients, family, medical institutes, and the government were measured. In addition, activities of daily living were measured in both methods to measure their effectiveness. Through collected data, the cost-effectiveness and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were analyzed. Results : Based on the analysis of cost-effectiveness, home physical therapy showed lower cost-effectiveness than in-hospital physical therapy. Furthermore, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio also showed a difference, which implied home physical therapy could have high effectiveness compared to cost. Conclusion : Based on these results, home physical therapy could be considered as an alternativeto other methods of physical therapy, for home-bound stroke patients. In addition, the result of thisstudy contribute by providing evidence that home physical therapy offers economic benefits and canbe more effective in treating home-bound patients when policy decisions are made to establish a home physical therapy system.

사람들이 어떠한 행동을 할 때는 특정 의도를 가지고 있기 때문에 상황에 맞는 적합한 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 사용자가 현재 하고 있는 행동에 대한 의도를 파악해야한다. 이를 위해 의도와 행동사이의 연관성을 이용하여 사용자의 의도에 따른 행동의 모델을 만든다. 일상생활에서 사람들이 하는 행동은 작은 단위 행동들의 연속(sequence)으로 이루어지므로, 사용자의 단위행동의 순서를 분석한다면 의도에 따른 행동 모델을 만들기가 용이해진다. 하지만, 이런 단위 행동 분석 방법의 문제점은 같은 의도를 가진 행동이 완벽하게 동일한 단위 행동의 순서로 일어나지는 않는다는 점이다. 시스템은 동일한 동작 순서로 일어나지 않는 행동들을 서로 다른 의도를 가진 행동으로 이해하게 된다. 따라서 이 문제점을 해결할 수 있는 사용자 의도 파악 기법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 과거의 사용자의 행동 정보를 기반으로 행동들의 유사성을 판별하였고, 그 결과를 이용하여 행동의 의도를 파악하는 방법을 사용한다. 이를 위해, 과거 사용자가 한 행동들을 단위 시간 별로 나누어 단위 행동의 순서로 만들고, 이를 K-평균 군집화 방법(K-means)으로 군집들의 순서로 나타내었다. 이 변경된 사용자 행동 정보를 사용하여 은닉 마코프 모델을 학습 시키고, 이렇게 만들어진 은닉 마코프 모델은 현재 사용자가 행한 행동이 어떤 행동인지를 예측하여 사용자의 의도를 파악한다.
