만성 통증 환자의 우울증 및 삶의 질 저하에 대한 많은 보고가 있으며, 통증 조절을 위해 심리적 측면도 중요한 요소로 포함된다. 온열 수치료는 통증 조절을 위하여 가장 많이 시행되는 치료법 중의 하나이며 다양한 방법으로 임상에서 적용될 수 있다. 현재까지 전신 온열 수치료가 통증, 심리, 주관적인 삶의 질에 미치는 영향에 대하여 포괄적인 연구가 시행된 사례가 없으므로, 본 연구에서는 만성 통증 환자에게 제주도내 상수원을 이용한 온습포치료, 즉 통증 부위의 부분치료 또는 전신 온열 수치료를 시행한 후 통증의 정도, 정서, 주관적 삶의 질 평가 결과에 변화가 있는지 알아보기로 하였다.

Objectives : We supposed that abdominal muscles are related to chronic cough, because abdominal pressure and respiratory muscles are influenced by abdominal muscle function. We have evaluated the effect of myofacial releasing of abdominal muscles with oriental medical treatment by experimenting two patients suffering from chronic cough. Methods : One patient was treated with acupuncture therapy and muscle stretching exercise for myofacial releasing of abdominal muscle. The other patient was treated with hot pack therapy and abdominal respiration training for myofacial releasing of abdominal muscle. Results and Conclusions : After oriental medical treatment of abdominal muscles in two cases, We figured out that the patients were on the mend. These results suggest that myofacial releasing of abdominal muscles using oriental medical treatment was effective in improving chronic cough.

The effects of physical therapy on the knee joint dysfunction due to femur fracture C.E. Parkr, J. Baik, J.H. Rhee* One hundred and twenty - four knee joint dysfunction due to femur fractured treated, at dept of physical therapy Incheon christian hospital for 3 years since 1978were reviewed. Despite lack of progress note , the late results in sixty- eight cases of joint dysfunction were analysed clinically. The reselt obtained in this study are summerized as follow :1. Sex distribution of total patients surveyed showed that 73.5% in male, and26,5% in female. In age distribution, the most predominent age group was 21 ~.30years with 35.3%.2. About 56% of the cases were caused by traffic accident,3. The modalities of physical therapy suitable to each cases were applied, 94.1 %of all cases were treated with hot pack, 98.5 % active exercise, 73.5 % isometric exerclse .4. The improvement by physical therapy on knee joint dysfunction was classified into 4 grades and showed following results ; excellent 66.1%, good 26.5%, fair5.9% and poor 1,5% respectively.

Purpose : The purpose of the study was to determine Effects of application on manual therapy of knee pain cause of Sacroiliac joint dysfunction. Methods : The patient with knee pain was 59years female. Muscle Energy Techniques, high-velocity, low-amplitude and modality(Hot pack, ultrasound, TENS) using during one month. Results : The patient has improve pain, muscle strength and function.

More efficient use of the battery pack is dependent upon how to measure the remaining capacity of the battery accurately. Among various measurement methods, the basic correction measurement method has still been a hot research topic area to reduce the errors. In this paper, the problems of the existing methods have been investigated and the research direction for measuring more accurate remaining capacity has been suggested by applying the numerical simulations in the future.

Objectives: This paper aims to report the effects of Korean medical treatment on three patients who operated laparoscopic gynecological surgery. Methods: Three patients operated laparoscopic gynecological surgery and got Korean medical treatment during 5 or 6 days hospitalization. The treatment included Ikgibohyeol-tang-gagambang, acupuncture, moxa and hot pack treatment. Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) of chief symptoms was measured every morning. Results: After the treatment, the pains following surgery decreased, and general conditions improved. Conclusions: These cases show that Korean medical treatment including Ikgibohyeol-tang-gagambang is effective for patients who operated laparoscopic gynecological surgery.

The causes of tongue pain and discomfort include systemic disease, malnutrition, mental illness, fungal infection, and neuropathy. Three postmenopausal women reported burning sensations and stiffness of the tongue for various periods, from one month to four years. There were no objective etiological factors to cause the tongue pain and discomfort. Muscular tenderness upon palpation of masticatory muscles, sternocleidomastoid, trapezius, and tongue were observed. Physical therapy approaches such as moist hot pack, ultrasound, and myomonitor were performed on three patients with tongue pain, just as for temporomandibular joint disease. Additional botulinum toxin injection therapy was applied to one patient who displayed a clenching habit. All three patients showed a marked improvement in their tongue symptoms after the muscle relaxation and botulinum toxin injection therapy.

In this paper, a constant frequency phase shifting PWM-controlled voltage source full bridge-type series load resonant high-frequency inverter using the $4^{th}$ generation IGBT power modules is presented for innovative consumer electromagnetic induction heating applications, such as a hot water producer, steamer and super heated steamer. The bridge arm side link passive capacitive snubbers in parallel with each power semiconductor device and AC load side linked active edge inductive snubber-assisted series load resonant tank soft switching inverter with a constant frequency phase shifted PWM control scheme is evaluated and discussed on the basis of the simulation and experimental results. It is proved from a practical point of view that the series load resonant and edge resonant hybrid high-frequency inverter topology, what is called, DE class type, including the variable-power variable-frequency regulation function can expand zero voltage soft switching commutation area even under low output power setting ranges, which is more suitable and acceptable for newly developed induction heated dual pack fluid heaters. Furthermore, even the lower output power regulation mode of this high-frequency load resonant tank inverter circuit is verified so that this inverter can achieve ZVS with the aid of the single auxiliary inductor snubber.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of cold therapy and thermal therapy, and immunoreactivity of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF), Interleukin-1(IL-1) and Interleukin-6(IL-6) on angiogenesis after muscle contusion injury. Methods : Muscle contusion injury was induced in the gastronemius muscle by dropping a metal bead(22.8g). Cold and thermal theraphy was applied immediately and directly to the skin of injured muscle daily for three days. (experimental group-1 : $5^{\circ}$ cold pack, experimental group-2 : $50^{\circ}$ hot pack, control group non applied, treatment time : 10minutes) Results : The experimental group-1 and 2 showed higher immunoreactivity of VEGF, IL-1, IL-6 than control group during 3 days(P<0.05). And the experimental group-2 showed higher than the experimental group-1 especially VEGF(P<0.05). Conclusion : There data thermal therapy was more effective than cold therapy in the acute muscle contusion injury.

Objectives : This study aimed to investigate temperature characteristics by heat transfer type of therapeutic modalities. Methods : We selected heating and cooling modalities that are frequently used in clinical by heat transfer type: conduction, convection, radiation, and conversion. We used ham as tissue model, and applied the modalities for 30 minutes. We measured real-time changed temperature($^{\circ}C$) of the surface, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 mm depth. Results : 1. In conduction-using hot pack, ice pack, and CryoStamp heating-cooling combination therapy unit($40^{\circ}C/{\sim}15^{\circ}C$), the surface temperature sharply rose close to equilibrium in first 5 minutes. 2. In convection-using smokeless moxa, temperature slowly rose to the maximum at 25-minute elapsed time. But in another convection-using CRAiS cryotherapy device, result was similar to that of conduction. 3. In radiation-using infrared lamp, result was similar to that of conduction, but not reached equilibrium during applying time. 4. In conversion-using ultrasound device, temperature was the highest at 6 mm depth, and not reached equilibrium during applying time. Conclusions : We could comprehend temperature characteristics and proper use of modalities by heat transfer type. It would be necessary to consider in vivo physical conditions in further studies.
