  • The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in wrist extensor activity, pain, and grip strength before and after wearing a forearm strap in their 20s who complained of chronic lateral epicondylitis for more than 6 weeks. As a result of the study, there was an increase in wrist extensor activity on both the injured and non-injured sides after wearing the forearm strap, but this was not statistically significant. There was a statistically decrease in pain after wearing the forearm strap on the injured side, and a statistically significant increase in grip strength on both. After applying the forearm strap with pad, there was an increase in muscle activity of ECRB (extensor carpi radialis brevis) on both the injured and non-injured sides. This is thought to be due to the strap pad acting as a compressive force, reducing pain, and increasing muscle recruitment ability due to stability in wrist extension. However, considering that the number of study subjects is insufficient to generalize the results, additional supplementary research is deemed necessary.

  • 목적: 주관절 내상과염 및 외상과염은 주관절 통증의 가장 흔한 원인 중의 하나로 이에 대한 치료방법으로 최근 체외충격파 치료가 임상에서 점점 많이 시도되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 내, 외상과염에 대한 체외충격파 치료를 시행한 후 그 임상적 결과를 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2005년 11월부터 2009년 1월까지 본원에서 주관절 내, 외상과염으로 진단받은 환자 중 72명 74예(남자 11명, 여자 61명)를 대상으로 하였으며 평균 연령은 52.4세였다. 모든 환자는 타 병원에서 국소 주사, 물리 치료, 약물치료, 주관절 석고 고정 등의 보존적 치료방법을 시행받았으나 증상이 호전되지 않아 본원을 방문한 경우로 치료 효과의 판정은 통증의 개선 정도를 통해 평가하였는데 휴식 시와 작업 시의 통증의 정도를 각각 치료 전과 치료 후 6주, 12주, 24주에 visual analogue scale (VAS)를 이용하여 측정하고 이와 함께 통증으로 수면 중 깨어나는 횟수를 조사하여 이를 같은 방식으로 치료 전, 후를 비교하여 평가하였다. 결과: 치료 24주 째 최종 추시에서 휴식시 통증의 경우 우수 70예, 양호 4예였으며 불량은 없었고 작업시 통증의 경우 우수 42예, 양호 14예, 보통 8예였으며 불량은 없었다. 이에 따라 작업시 VAS를 바탕으로 한 치료 성공률은 약 89.2%로 확인되었다. 휴식시 통증의 VAS 평균값은 치료 전 4.60에서 치료 6주째 2.01, 12주째 0.43, 24주째 0.16으로 개선되었고 작업시 통증의 경우 평균값이 치료 전 7.20에서 치료 6주째 4.05, 12주째 2.01, 24주째 0.36으로 유의하게 개선되었다. 수면 중 깨어나는 빈도 역시 치료 전 1주일에 평균 9.64회에서 치료 6주, 12주, 24주가 되면서 각각 1.21회, 0.08회, 0.09회로 유의한 치료 효과를 보여주었다. 결론: 체외충격파를 이용한 주관절 내, 외상과염의 치료는 보존적 치료에 반응하지 않는 환자들에서 통증의 감소와 근력 증진을 위한 효과적인 치료법으로 사료된다.

  • Taping treatment is frequently used in the management of musculoskeletal pain The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of ultrasound and taping treatment on the pain and grip strength with lateral epicondylitis. Pain and grip strength were assessed prior, after first, after second, after third, after fourth, and after fifth treatment. All 6 times calculated pain and grip strength. To find out the effectiveness of taping treatment, we were divide two groups. the one group was consisted of 20 patients that treated with H/P, electrical therapy and ultrasound, and the other group was consisted of 20 patients that treated with H/P, electrical therapy and taping. The results were as follow: 1. There were statistical significance on the pain and grip strength with ultrasound group(P<0.05). 2. There were statistical significance on the pain and grip strength with taping group(P<0.05). 3. Taping group was more statistical significance than ultrasound group on the pain(P<0.05). 4. There was no statistical significance between ultrasound group and taping group on the grip strength(P>0.05).

  • Objective: The purpose of this study is to examine about dental hygienists' myofascial pain syndrome, lower back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), medial and lateral epicondylitis, hand-arm vibration syndrom and work-related musculoskeletal syndrome (WMSD) experience and hygienists' posture, motion. Methods: The self-administered questionnaire was surveyed from June 1 to September 30 of 2018 targeting 280 dental hygienists in Gyeongnam province and 266 dental hygienists' answers were analyzed. Results: The average daily working hours of a dental hygienist was more than eight hours 59.0%, with an average of 33 patients per day. The average number of patients who receive treatment for more than 30 minutes is 15. The angle of motion of the subjective evaluation was above 60%. Medical position and form of movement were more than 50% above the standard level. Symptoms of posture and motion that cause WMSD were hand-arm vibration syndrome 68.1%, myofascial pain syndrome 58.6%, lower back pain 51.1%, CTS 50.4% in order. Experience WMSD related symptoms which dental hygienists experience were myofascial pain syndrome 92.9%, CTS 57.9%, lower back pain 56.4%, medial and lateral epicondylitis 37.2%, hand-arm vibration syndrome 24.4%. Conclusion: The above results showed the posture and motion of dental hygienists and were found that the experience rate which dental hygienists experience WMSD of myofascial pain syndrome, Lower back pain, and CTS was significantly more than 56%.

  • This study describes the reliability of pragmatic combinations of acupuncture points for lateral epicondylalgia (LE) as prescribed by physiotherapists who were experts in acupuncture. Raters (n = 14; 33-59 years) independently prescribed acupuncture points for 30 simulated human patients with LE who were surveyed via a printed questionnaire. The frequency and cooccurrence of acupuncture points prescribed for patients with lateral epicondylitis were assessed. Absolute agreement and Light's kappa (${\kappa}_{Light}$) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to quantify the interrater agreement. Raters prescribed 103 unique acupuncture points in different combinations with a median (min-max) of 5 (0-11) acupuncture points. The most prescribed acupuncture point was LI-11 (297 of 420; 71%), and the most common cooccurring acupuncture points were LI-11 and LI-4 (160 of 420; 38%). The absolute agreement for prescribing the acupuncture points ranged from 70% (point GB-20) to 0% (points LI-10, SP-6, LI-11, GB-34, LI-12, and LI-4). Point LR-3 showed the highest interrater reliability for prescribing the acupuncture points [${\kappa}_{Light}=0.112$, 95% CI = (0.055-0.194)], whereas point LI-4 showed the lowest reliability [${\kappa}_{Light}=-0.003$, 95% CI = (-0.024 to 0.024)]. These findings suggest that pragmatic prescriptions of acupuncture points for LE are unreliable among physiotherapists who are experts in acupuncture. Explicit, high-level evidence-based rules for prescribing and teaching combinations of acupuncture points for LE are warranted.

  • 목적: 주관절 외상과염은 주관절 동통을 유발하는 대표적인 질환 중 하나로 이에 대한 치료 방법은 여러 문헌에서 보고 된 바 있다. 본원에서는 외상과염에 대한 혈소판 풍부 혈장 (Platelet-Rich-Plsma) 주입 치료를 시행한 후 그 임상적 결과를 평가해 보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2009년 1월부터 2009년 12월까지 본원에서 외상과염으로 진단받은 환자 15명 (남자 5명, 여자 10명)을 대상으로 하였으며, 평균 연령은 43.5세 였다. 모든 환자는 타 병원에서 1년 이상의 물리치료, 약물치료 등의 보존적 치료를 시행 받았으나, 증상호전을 보이지 않아 수술적 치료를 고려하는 환자였다. 대상 환자는 주관절 외상과에 경피적 혈소판 풍부 혈장 농축액 3cc를 1회 주입하였으며, 치료효과의 판정은 휴식 시와 작업 시의 visual analogue scale (VAS), The Patient-Rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation (PRTEE)를 시술 후 4, 12주 후 측정하고 치료 전후를 비교평가 하였다. 결과: 치료 4주, 12주 단기 추시에서 휴식시 통증의 VAS 평균 값은 치료 전 4.6에서 치료 4주째 2.5 12주째 1.8로 개선 되었고, 작업시 통증의 경우 치료 전 7.8에서 치료 4주째 6.2 치료 12주째 4.25로 개선 되었다. PRTEE score 평균 값은 치료 전 60.13에서 치료 4주째 46.12, 12주째 24.6으로 개선 되었다. 결론: 보존적 치료에 반응을 보이지 않는 불응성 주관절 외상과염의 치료에 있어 혈소판 풍부 혈장 주입을 이용한 치료는 효과적인 치료법이며, 수술적 치료를 시행 전 고려 되어야 한다고 사료 된다.
