The effects of brisk walking & muscle strengthening exercise on pain, fatigue, physical function & disease activity were examined in 28 patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Research design was a quasi-experimental study of non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design. 14 for the experimental group and 14 for the control group were selected from the out patients on rheumatoid arthritis clinic of Dong-A University Hospital. The experimental group underwent 16 weeks of brisk walking and muscle strengthening exercise using Thera-Band. Pain, fatigue, physical function & disease activity was measured before and after 16 weeks of exercise. At baseline test, Fatigue & physical function score between groups were significantly different. So differences with in experimental group(baseline versus follow up) were compared with differences within the control group by Mann-Whitney test. There were significant differences between groups in the difference score on pain (U=6.50 p<.001) and fatigue (U=26.5 p<.01). For the experimental group, the score on the pain & fatigue was significantly decreased but no changed for the control group. Also there was a significant differences between groups in the difference score of the physical function (U=22.5 p<.001). For the experimental group, the score of the physical function has been significantly in creased. However, for the control group, it has been no changed. But there were no significant differences between groups in the ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) and the CRP (C-reactive protein)level. In summary, brisk walking & muscle strengthening exercise led to significant improvements in pain, fatigue, and physical function without exacerbating disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Purpose: This thesis study aimed to examine the effects of elastic-band resistance exercise on physical fitness, activities of daily living (ADLs), falls efficacy, and quality of life among older women receiving home nursing care under long-term care insurance. Methods: We used an equivalent control group pre-test/post-test design. We assigned older women at the nursing care center J to the experimental group (n=21), and older adult women at the nursing care center H to the control group (n=21). The experimental group engaged in an elastic band resistance exercise twice per week from February 18 to April 12, 2019. Results: There were significant differences in the Short Physical Performance Battery score (t=4.15 p<.001), left grip strength (t=0.57, p<.569), right grip strength (t=1.38 p<.177), flexibility test scores (t=2.34, p<.024), ADLs (t=6.86, p<.001), falls efficacy (t=5.16, p<.001), and quality of life (t=3.87, p<.001). Grip strength was increased slightly in the experimental group, but the increase was not significant. Conclusion: Elastic band resistance exercise is an effective nursing intervention to enhance physical fitness, flexibility, ADLs, falls efficacy, and quality of life among older women receiving home nursing care under long term care insurance.

Purpose : The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of foot position on dynamic stability in female with genu varum. M ethods: Eight females with genu varum participated in this study and performed the four squat exercise methods that foot position ($-45^{\circ}$, $0^{\circ}$, $+45^{\circ}$) and $0^{\circ}$ squat with band. Center of pressure (COP; anterior-posterior, medial-lateral, traveled distance, ellipse area) and ground reaction force as dynamic stability were measured using footscan system. Multivariate analysis of variance and one-way repeated analysis of variance measurement with Tukey honestly significant difference were used to identify significant differences of foot angle ($-45^{\circ}$, $0^{\circ}$, $+45^{\circ}$) and $0^{\circ}$ squat with band method. Results: In anterior-posterior COP displacement, $-45^{\circ}$ foot angle and $0^{\circ}$ squat with band were significantly showed lower than $+45^{\circ}$ foot angle squat (p=0.006). Also, in COP traveled distance, $0^{\circ}$ squat was significantly showed lower than $+45^{\circ}$ foot angle (p=0.019). During the descending phase, ground reaction force significantly showed in -45 foot angle was lower than other exercise methods. Conclusion: The $0^{\circ}$ squat with band exercise showed higher dynamic stability and $+45^{\circ}$ foot angle squat exercise showed lower dynamic stability in female with genu varum.

Background: The weakness of the gluteus medius (GM) is associated with various musculoskeletal disorders. The increasing GM activity without synergistic dominance should be considered when prescribing pelvic drop exercise (PD). Isometric hip extension or flexion of the non-weight bearing leg using thera-band at the ankle during PD may influence hip abductor activities. Objects: To determine how isometric hip extension or flexion of the non-weight bearing leg using thera-band at the ankle during PD influences the activities of three subdivisions of GM (anterior, GMa; middle, GMm; posterior, GMp), tensor fasciae latae (TFL), contralateral quadratus lumborum (QL), and GMp/TFL, GMm/QL activity ratios in patients with GM weakness. Methods: Twenty-three patients with GM weakness were recruited. Three types of PD were performed: PD, PD with an isometric hip extension of the non-weight bearing leg (PDE), and PD with an isometric hip flexion of the non-weight bearing leg (PDF). Surface electromyography (SEMG) was used to measure hip abductor activities. One-way repeated-measures analysis of variance was used to assess the statistical significance of muscle activities and muscle activity ratios. Results: GMa, GMm, and GMp activities were significantly greater during PDF than during PD and PDE (p < 0.001, p = 0.001; p = 0.001, p = 0.005; p = 0.004, p = 0.004; respectively). TFL activity was significantly greater during PDE than during PD and PDF (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, respectively). QL activity was significantly greater during PDF than during PD (p = 0.003). GMp/TFL activity ratio was significantly lower during PDE than during PD and PDF (p = 0.001, p = 0.001, respectively). There were no significant differences in the GMm/QL activity ratio. Conclusion: PDF may be an effective exercise to increase the activities of all three GM subdivisions while minimizing the TFL activity in patients with GM weakness.

The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of lower extremity resistance training using elastic bands on balance in elderly people. Eight elderly persons each were randomly assigned to a test group(resistance exercise group, REG) or a control group(CG). FRT and TUG test were used to compare balance before and after exercise. Exercise programs were implemented three times a week for 40 minutes for nine weeks. They did warm-up exercise for 5 minutes and then lower extremity resistance exercise using elastic bands for 30 minutes. And then they did cool-down exercise for 5 minutes. TUG and FRT significantly decreased but in the control group it did not significantly decrease. In comparison between the groups, TUG and FRT significantly reduced in the resistance exercise group compared to the control group. Lower extremity resistance training using elastic bands performed by elderly persons are considered to be effective in improving balance.

노화가 진행됨에 따라 근육은 감소 현상(sarcopenia)을 나타낸다. 근육의 감소는 노인의 의료비 증가와 직접적인 관련성은 없어 보이지만, 근육의 감소가 근력의 감소로 연결되어 체력의 약화, 활동성의 감소, 낙상의 증가 등과 같은 독립적인 생활을 감소시킨다. 이는 신체장애로 연결되며, 또다시 당뇨, 비만, 고지혈증, 고혈압 등과 같은 만성퇴행성 질환으로 연결된다. 결국, 근감소증은 사망률을 상승시키는 잠재 위험요인이 된다. 본 연구는 탄력밴드 운동을 통한 근감소증 예방과 관련된 변인인 신체조성 및 체력의 향상된 변화와 더불어 운동 중단에 따른 운동효과의 상쇄(相殺) 정도를 살펴보는데 있다. 본 연구의 피검자는 S시 J구 J노인복지관 운동프로그램에 참가하는 60-70대의 노인 14명으로 선정하였다. 12주 동안의 탄력밴드 운동은 주2회의 빈도로 실시하였다. 측정시기는 12주간의 통제전, 통제후(운동전), 12주간의 운동 후(운동중단 전), 12주간의 운동중단 후로 신체조성 과 체력 변인을 측정하였다. 12주간의 통제전·후 신체조성과 체력 변인에는 통계적인 유의차가 나타나지 않았으나, 12주간의 운동전·후 신체조성의 체중(t=2.978, p=0.001), 체질량지수(t=3.502, p=0.004), 체지방율(t=2.216, p=0.045), 근육량(t=-3.837, p=0.002), 내장지방면적(t=5.186, p<0.001), 허리-엉덩이 둘레비(t=3.045, p=0.009) 모든 변인에서, 체력의 2분 제자리 걷기(t=-6.891 p<0.001), 덤벨들기(t=-4.702, p<0.001), 의자에서 일어섰다 앉기(t=-4.860, p<0.001), 의자앉아 앞으로 굽히기(t=-5.910, p<0.001), 등 뒤에서 손잡기(t=-3.835, p=0.002), 244cm 왕복 걷기(t=7.560, p<0.001)의 모든 변인에서 운동의 효과를 나타내었고, 그 효과가 12주간의 운동중단 후에도 신체조성의 체중(t=2.323, p=0.037), 체질량지수(t=2.503, p=0.026), 근육량(t=-3.137, p=0.008) 변인에서, 체력의 2분 제자리 걷기(t=-6.489 p<0.001), 의자에서 일어섰다 앉기(t=-4.694, p<0.001), 의자앉아 앞으로 굽히기(t=-3.690, p=0.003), 244cm 왕복 걷기(t=7.539, p<0.001)의 변인에서 그 유지가 지속되었다. 노인에게 있어서 탄력밴드 운동은 신체조성 및 체력에 긍정적인 영향을 나타내며, 그 운동의 효과가 12주가 경과되어도 유지되고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.
