Objective: The aim of this review is to explore the latest intervention trends and effects of EMG-triggered functional electrical stimulation on the upper extremity functions in stroke patients. Design: Systematic review on clinical trials. Methods: A systematic literature search was performed to identify clinical trials evaluating the effects of EMG-triggered functional electrical stimulation (EMG-FES) and task-oriented EMG-triggered FES on the hand functions in stroke patients. Literature review was conducted with the following key words: hand function, functional electrical stimulation, task-oriented, stroke. Results: Ten clinical trials were included; 8 of them were randomized controlled trial, 1 was block-randomized, and 1 was a pre-post comparison study. A positive effect of electrical stimulation was reported in the patient groups that were treated with functional electrical stimulation combined with specific tasks, and volitional muscle contraction-triggered stimulation that was synchronized with tasks. Motor capabilities of the hand and arm were improved after the rehabilitation. Conclusions: EMG-triggered electrical stimulation may be more effective than non-triggered electrical stimulation in facilitating the hand functions in stroke patients in terms of muscle strength and voluntary muscle contraction of the paretic hand and arm. Triggered electrical stimulation can be even more effective when it is combined with specific tasks.

Purpose: This study examines deficits in upper-extremity function and trunk control ability on the osmotic demyelination syndrome of a patient with Hyponatremia and Hypokalemia. Using a proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation program, this case report aims to describe the effects of trunk stability exercises on trunk control ability, hand function, and daily living activities as well as its effects on the osmotic demyelination syndrome of a patient with Hyponatremia and Hypokalemia. Methods: The patient is a 47-year-old woman with osmotic demyelination syndrome as well as trunk and upper extremity impairment. She participated in this training intervention for four weeks. Results: The patient demonstrated improvements in trunk control ability, hand function, and performance of ADL. The following outcomes were measured before and after the training program: trunk impairment scale, hand power, Jebsen-Taylor hand function test, the Chedoke arm and hand inventory, and the modified Barthel index. Conclusion: The results suggest that trunk stability exercises in the form of a proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation program in Hyponatremia and Hypokalemia patients may increase trunk control ability, increase hand function, and improve ADL.

본 논문의 목적은 영상자극이 신체 안정성에 미치는 영향을 개념 모델(Conceptual Model)로 제시하고, 시청자에게 제공되는 영상의 종류(2D, VR)에 따라 신체 안정성(손 안정성)에 미치는 영항을 실험을 통해 알아보는 것이다. 최근에 VR과 같은 입체 영상이 스마트폰이나 운동기구 등과의 결합이 활발해지고 있고, 영상자극이 제거된 후 일시적으로 신체 균형 및 손 안정성에 영향을 미침에 따라 안전사고나 인적오류의 가능성도 높아지고 있다. 개념모델은 기존 연구결과들을 바탕으로 제시되었고, 실험결과를 기반으로 뇌에서 일어나는 인간정보처리과정 및 인지적 자원모델과 결합되어 설명되었다. 20명의 피실험자는 2D, VR 자극에 노출 된 후 영상피로가 Cybersickness 질문지를 통해, 손 안정성은 Hand Steadiness Tester를 이용해 측정되었다. 실험결과 2D보다 VR 영상이 높은 영상피로, 낮은 손 안정성을 유발하였다. 본 연구는 아직 시도되지 않은 영상 종류 및 영상피로 수준에 따른 손 안정성을 개념모델과 실험을 통해 밝혔다는데 의의가 있다.

목적 : 본 연구에서는 말소리장애 아동과 일반 아동을 대상으로 어휘인출 시 단순 손동작(hand tapping)을 반복하게 하는 것이 조음정확도와 유창성에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대해 알아보았다. 손동작을 반복하면서 어휘를 산출하는 것은 주의를 분산시키는 이중과제에 해당하기 때문에, 주의력 저하가 보고된 말소리장애 아동의 경우 일반 아동과 다른 행동 양상을 보이는지를 파악하고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 4, 5, 6세의 말소리장애 아동 15명과 일반 아동 15명이 본 연구에 참여하였다. 조음복잡성이 높은 어휘와 낮은 어휘를 각각 15개씩, 총 30개를 선정하여, 이에 대한 대면이름대기 과제를 실시하였다. 첫 번째 실험조건에서는 단순 손동작을 반복하지 않고, 두 번째 실험조건에서는 손바닥으로 책상을 두드리면서 그림 이름을 말하도록 하였다. 대상자의 반응에 대해 자음정확도, 비유창성 정도, 정확성 변화와 유창성 변화의 상관관계를 측정하여, 두 실험조건에 따른 두 집단 간 수행력을 비교하였다. 결과 : 첫째, 말소리장애 집단과 일반 집단 모두 손동작 반복 과제와 손동작 비반복 과제 간 자음정확도에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 둘째, 일반 집단은 손동작 반복 과제에서 비유창성이 유의하게 증가하였으나, 말소리장애 집단은 차이가 없었다. 셋째 손동작 반복에 따른 자음정확도 변화와 비유창성 변화는 일반집단의 경우 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있었으나 말소리장애 집단은 아무런 상관을 보이지 않았다. 결론 : 본 연구에서 주의력 분산을 위해 사용한 단순 손동작 반복은 결과적으로 집단에 따라 대상자의 목표행동에 방해가 될 수도, 혹은 그 반대로 도움이 될 수도 있었다. 어휘인출에 대한 손동작 반복의 영향이 두 집단 간 다른 양상으로 나타난 만큼 이에 대한 심층적 논의가 필요할 것이다.

To investigate the effect of neck collars for the protection of self-mutilation, attainable sites of the body in dogs with collars and durability of collars were examined for 7 days. The collars used in the present experiment were hand made plastic basket collar, IASIS$\^$R/ ( heat moldable plastics), commerical plastic and cardboard collars The hand made plastic basket collar was made of basket which could buy at any supermarkets. The dogs with hand made plastic basket collar and IASIS$\^$R/ which was cast from the neck to the scapular region could lick only on digits of the forelimb. However, the dogs with commercial plastic and cardboard collars could lick not only the digits of forelimb but femur and digits of the hindlimb. It was suggested that hand made plastic basket collar was superior to the other collars in easiness of putting, durability, protection of self mutilation and economy.

This case report was conducted to introduce the use of miniscalpel-acupuncture for the treatment of hand osteoarthritis. A-76-year old female patient who had pain on both hands due to osteoarthritis was treated with miniscalpel-acupuncture for 7 weeks. The main outcome were the Numeral Rating Scale (NRS) and the grip strength by dynamometer. After miniscalpel-acupuncture treatment, NRS was decreased and the strength of grasp was increased. The result of this study suggests that the treatment of miniscalpel-acupuncture may be effectively used to decrease pain and increase grip strength of patients who suffer from hand osteoarthritis. Further research is necessary by the reason of the limited sample size of this study.
