본 연구는 뇌졸중으로 인한 성인 편마비 환자의 계단 높이에 따른 보행 훈련을 통하여 균형과 근활성도 변화를 분석하는데 목적이 있다. 뇌졸중으로 진단받은 편마비 환자 30명을 대상으로 5cm, 10cm, 15cm 높이의 계단 보행 훈련군으로 나누어 계단 보행 훈련을 실시하였으며, 임상적 균형능력 측정도구인 Berg Balance Scale(BBS), Timed up and go(TUG), Functional Reach Test(FRT)와 근활성도를 측정하였다. 연구결과 균형변화에서는 세 군간 계단 보행 훈련 전과 후의 균형 변화량이 통계학적으로 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았으나(p>.05), 10cm 높이 계단 보행 훈련군에서 가장 큰 변화량을 보였다. 근활성도변화에서는 계단 오르기시 10cm 높이 계단 보행 훈련군에서 넙다리곧은근, 넙다리두갈래근, 장딴지근, 15cm 높이 계단 보행 훈련군에서 모든 근육들이 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보였으며(p<.05), 계단 내리기시 근활성도 변화에서는 5cm 높이계단 보행 훈련군에서 앞정강근와 장딴지근, 10cm 높이 계단 보행 훈련군에서 모든 근육들이, 15cm 높이 계단 보행 훈련군에서 넙다리두갈래근, 앞정강근, 장딴지근이 통계학으로 유의한 차이를 나타내었다(p<.05). 따라서, 높이에 따른 계단 보행 훈련은 편마비 환자의 임상적 균형 능력과 근활성도를 변화시키는데 영향을 줄 수 있으며, 특히 10cm 높이 계단 보행 훈련군에서는 다른 높이의 계단 보행 훈련군에서 보다 약간 상대적인 증가를 보였다.

This study examined the differences in the improvement of walking ability between treadmill training with fast-tempo auditory stimulation (FTAS group) and the general treadmill training (control group) in hemiplegia. The subjects were allocated randomly into both groups. Eleven patients of the FTAS group and 11 patients of the control group underwent training for 30 minutes per day for 6 weeks. Before and after intervention, the walking ability was measured by the 10m gait-evaluation and the number of steps in 20m walking. The gait velocity was improved further in the FTAS group than the control group (p<.05). This study provides evidence of the efficacy of treadmill training with FTAS in improving the gait ability when compared to the general methods in patients with chronic hemiplegia.

This study was to evaluate the effects of an action observation to improve on gait in stroke patients. Participants were randomly allocated to two groups: experimental (n=10) and control (n=10). Both groups were trained for 60 minutes, 6 times a week during 6 weeks by neuro-development treatment. Experimental group practiced additional action observation for 3 session 10 minutes per week 6 weeks. Both groups were evaluated by gait velocity, affected step length, non affected step length, affected stride length, non affected stride length, double support time, cadence, and timed up and go to test. There were significantly increased by action observation in outcomes of the gait performance from the gait velocity, affected side step length, affected side stride length, cadence, timed up and go test. In conclusion, the action observation improves gait performance in stroke patients. The results suggest that action observation training is feasible and suitable for individuals with hemiparesis patients.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of aquatic gait training on plantar foot pressure, foot kinesiology and gait speed in right hemiplegic patients. The subject were 20 stroke patients who elapsed from 12 month to 24 month after stroke(aquatic gait training group(n=10), land gait training group(n=10)). This study measured plantar foot pressure, toe out angle, subtalar joint angle, gait speed from data of gate on 2m long measuring apparatus for RS-scan system(RS scan Ltd. German). This experiment performed in twice, before and after the aquatic gait training and land gait training. Collected data were statistically analyzed by SPSS Ver. 12.0 using descriptive statistics, paired t-test. Aquatic gait training group had more variety pressure area on their foot such as T1(Toe 1), HM(Heel medial), and HL(Heel lateral). But motion of subtalar joint flexibility and toe out angle decreased considerably and gate speed also increased. According to the result, aquatic gait training is considered as more effective way in foot stability and normal gait pattern than land gait training.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Action-observational training program on gait and balance of patients with hemiplegia. Subjects of this study, among the patients who received the diagnosis cerebral vascular accident, for patients total of 4 people have agreed to research. Experimental group 2 people, control group 2 people, was a total of 4 people. Group-specific arbitration method, was applied to Action-observational training program(experimental group) and general Task-oriented training program(control group). Each training courses 30 minutes for 4 weeks, examined the changes in 10 Meter Walk Test(10MWT), gait speed, Berg Balance Scale(BBS) and time up and go(TUG) ability to examine a total of 4-week course effectively. The intervention were compared by measuring before and after. There were significant improvements in the subscales of the gait and balance test of those who practiced with the Action-observational training program, while the control group showed no significant changes. Therefore, Action-observational training program is effective in improvement of to improve the gait and balance in patients with hemiplegia.

This study examined the gait ability and foot pressure after backward walking training in hemiplegia patients after stroke to provide evidence for the application of backward walking to the rehabilitation of those patients. Twenty hemiplegia patients hospitalized at one rehabilitation hospital were enrolled in this study, which was conducted from 23 April to 18 May, 2012. The subjects were randomized into either the experimental group or control group. The control group received general physical therapy for 30 minutes and the experimental group received 20 minutes of physical therapy and 10 minutes of backwards walking training five times a week for four weeks. The gait ability and foot pressure of both feet were measured quantitatively and compared. The results showed the weight bearing (entire foot, anterior and posterior of foot) of the paralyzed foot during the stance phase showed a significant difference (p<.05). The difference in the foot pressure of right and left feet was more significant in the experimental group than that of the control group (p<.05). Therefore, this study confirmed that backward walking training in a rehabilitation program would be helpful for improving the gait ability of hemiplegia patients after stroke.

본 논문에서는 하지 편마비 환자의 편마비 정도를 측정하여 사용하지 않으려고 하는 근육을 강제적으로 사용하도록 하여 하지를 재활할 수 있도록 훈련하는 시스템을 제안한다. 제안하는 시스템은 체중 부하 및 하지 슬관절의 움직임을 측정하여, 이를 통해 환자가 자신의 편마비 정도를 인식할 수 있도록 화면에 출력함으로써 환자가 피드백을 통해 강제적으로 편마비 하지를 사용 하도록 훈련 시킬 수 있다. 하지 슬관절(Knee Joint)의 움직임은 기존의 방법과는 달리 적외선 필터를 장착한 단일 카메라를 통한 모션 캡쳐 기술을 사용하여 획득한다. 또한, 재활 시스템에 가상현실 기술을 도입하여 무릎을 동시에 굽혔다가 펴는 기립훈련과 양측 하지를 이용한 보행훈련을 입력으로 가상공간을 탐험할 수 있게 함으로써 환자가 흥미롭게 재활훈련을 받을 수 있도록 하였다.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of mental practice to improve on gait and quality of life in stroke patients. Participants were randomly allocated to two groups: experimental(n=10) and control (n=10). Both groups received neural development treatment training for 6 sessions 1 hour per week during 6 weeks. Experimental group practiced additional mental practice for 3 session 10 minutes per week 6 weeks. Results were evaluated by spatial-temporal parameter, 10m walk test, and quality of life. There were significantly increased by mental practice in outcomes of the gait performance from the gait velocity, cadence, double support, single support, 10m walk test. There were significantly increased by mental practice in outcomes of stroke impact scale from the strength, social participants, and stroke recovery. In conclusion, the mental practice improves gait performance and quality of life in stroke patients. The results suggest that mental practice training is feasible and suitable to stroke patients.

In this study, we developed a wireless rehabilitation auditory feedback gait training system for symmetrical weight-bearing in patient with CVA. The device consists of an instantaneous shoe equipped with two load-cell sensors. Auditory feedback can be applied according to the weight-bearing. For gait patterns analysis, cadence, walking velocity, stance/swing phase ratio and gait cycle were examined. The clinical test with six healthy volunteers and two hemiplegic patients was performed applying the auditory feedback system. Both normal subjects and hemiplegic patients were increased strength on weight-bearing in affected limb, walking velocity, and cadence after biofeedback device. Also, the stance time with weight-bearing was increased while the swing time was decreased in gait phase. It can be expected that by using the feedback system, the patient with lower limb disorder will be able to reach a better quality of weight-bearing during gait.
