The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of passive caudal gliding mobilization of the glenohumeral joint on the range of motion (ROM) of active and passive abduction; to evaluate the value of pain relief through visual analogue scale (VAS); to evaluate the correlation between improvement of shoulder abduction and intra-articular movement measured by fluoroscopy in frozen shoulder patients. The subjects consisted of twenty-one patients with clinically diagnosed frozen shoulder (11 males, 10 females) between 40 and 63 years of age (mean age : 52.7 years). The traction and caudal gliding mobilization based on the convex-concave rule in the resting position and at end range of abduction was peformed for 15 minutes per day and was repeated 10 times during a 2 week period. The ROM of abduction was measured by goniometer and pain was measured by VAS. The intra-articular movement was measured by fluoroscope, Neurostar Plus TOP (Siemens, Germany). ROM measurements of each patient was acquired at pre-treatment, immediate post-treatment and 2 week post-treatment. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 10.0 for Windows software and data was analyzed using the paired-test and the pearson correlation. The results of this study are as follows: 1. There was a significant decrease of VAS between pre-treatment data and 2 week post-treatment data (P<.05) but no significant difference between pre-treatment and immediate post-treatment data (P>.05). 2. There was a significant increase in ROM of active and passive abduction in the pre-treatment data, immediate post-treatment data, and in 2 week post-treatment data (P<.05). 3. With regard to results of the joint play test, there was a significant difference in the grade of traction between pre-treatment data and immediate post-treatment data and between pre-treatment data and 2 week post-treatment data (P<.05). There was no significant difference between immediate post-treatment data and 2 week post-treatment data (P>.05). 4. With regard to results of the joint play test, there was a significant difference in the grade of caudal gliding between pre-treatment data and immediate post-treatment data and between pre-treatment data and 2 week post-treatment data (P<.05). There was no significant difference between immediate post-treatment data and 2 week post-treatment data (P>.05), 5. With regard to the results of fluoroscopic findings, there was a significant change of the glenohumeral joint space between pre-treatment data and immediate post-treatment data and between immediate post-treatment data and 2 week post-treatment data (P<.05). There was no significant change of the glenohumeral joint space between immediate post-treatment data and 2 week post-treatment data (P>.05). 6. With regard to the results of fluoroscopic findings, there was a significant change of acromiohumeral joint space between the three data (pre-treatment data, immediate post-treatment data, 2 week post-treatment data) (P<.05). 7. Mobility grade by joint play test was significantly increased and was correlated to improved ROM of active and passive abduction (P<.05). In this study of frozen shoulder, passive caudal gliding techniques of the glenohumeral joint results in statistically significant changes in active and passive abduction as well as in VAS. There is also a significant correlation between joint play test and ROM of abduction.

목적: 이 연구의 목적은 종래형 인상채득 방법과 디지털 인상채득 방법에 대한 환자들의 느낌, 만족도와 선호도를 설문조사를 통해 비교분석하는 것이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 이 연구에 참여한 13명의 임상시험자(남자 6명, 여자 7명)는 종래형 인상채득 방법과 디지털 인상채득 방법을 동일에 경험하였다. 종래형 인상채득방법은 폴리비닐실록산(PVS) 인상재를 사용하였고, 디지털 인상채득은 새로 개발된 구강스캐너를 사용하였다. 두 종류의 인상채득을 시행한 직후 바로 설문조사를 진행하였고, 설문조사지는 다음의 세 개의 범주로 구성되었다; 1) 일반적인 치과 진료에 관해 2) 종래형 인상채득방법에 대한 만족도 3) 디지털 인상채득 방법에 대한 만족도. 만족도에 대한 측정은 Likert 척도를 사용하여 평가되었다. 설문조사 응답 중 분포에 관한 것은 백분율을 사용하였고, 비교 만족도에 유의성에 대한 통계분석은 paired t-test 검정을 사용하였으며 통계적 유의수준은 P < 0.05 로 하였다. 결과: 두 가지 인상채득 방법에 대한 전반적인 만족도에서 유의미한 차이가 있었다(P < 0.05). 디지털 인상채득방식이 숨쉬기, 냄새에 대한 항목에서 종래의 인상채득방법에 비해 높은 만족도를 보였다. 다만 구강 스캐너를 사용했을 때 스캐너의 팁 사이즈가 크고 입을 오래 벌리고 있어야 하는 문제로 인해 TMJ에 불편감을 야기했다. 결론: 구강스캐너를 사용하는 디지털 인상채득 방법이 종래의 인상채득방법에 비하여 더 선호되는 것을 확인하였다. 대부분의 조사에서 참가자들이 디지털 인상채득방법을 타인에게 추천할 의향이 있으며, 다음 보철 치료 시에도 디지털 인상채득 방법을 선택할 것이라고 했다.
