Physical therapists should under stand motor control models and apply various models to evaluation and treatment of neurologically impaired patients. Thus, this paper reviews motor control models and applications in clinical settings. Assumptions and limitations of reflex models, hierarchical models, and systems models are presented. This paper also delineates goals and dissatisfaction of neurologic rehabilitation approaches for neurologically impaired patients. Muscle reeducation approach, neurotherapeutic facilitation approach, and contemporary task-oriented approach are explained.

The age of specialization is upon physical therapy, as evidenced by the many special interest group. One of the special interest is manual therapy, which is the study of neurology, biomechanic, behavior science and pathology as well as the application of evaluative and treatment techniques of the neuromusculoskeletal system. Trend of manual therapy cover the whole medical in Europe. but America has two categories which is the neurologic manual therapy and the orthopedic manual therapy. The neurologic manual therapy was integrated with theory of PNF, Bobath technique, Vojta which is neurophysiologic approach concept. It is called motor control. A key aspect of the motor control requires a through knowledge of neurobiologic, biomechanic, and behavioral science. The orthopedic manual therapy runs to the evaluation and treatment of joints and their surrounding structures increase or decrease mobility and Fain control. In this article has to define and clarify the basic concepts of orthopedic manual therapy by comparing the general concepts, evaluation schemes, and treatment procedures of John McM Mennell, James Cyriax, Geoffrey Maitland, Freddy Kaltenborn and Ola Grimsby.

A 60-year-old male was admitted due to cervical spine injury (C7-T1 fracture dislocation) and quadriparesis after slip down. During conservative management in department of neurologic surgery, he complainted of fever, dyspnea, neck swelling. Follow up cervicothoracic CT revealed abscess pocket in paraglottic, retropharyngeal, anterior cervical spaces and mediastinum. Also noted bilateral pleural effusions. Under impression of descending necrotizing mediastinitis (DNM). cervical drainage and bilateral chest tube insertion was performed immediately. On next day. mediastinal drainage through mediastinotomy was performed with careful handling of cervical spine. Escherichia coli was identified in bacteriologic culture. Wire fixation of dislocated C7-T1 spine through Posterior approach was performed on 30th days after mediastinotomy. Right chest tube was removed on 40th days. At now, the patient is on rehabilitation and physical training program. DNM is relatively rare, but lethal disease with high mortality. Immedate and sufficient mediastinal drainage is essential in treatment.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) has a significant negative effect on the quality of life due to permanent neurologic damage and economic burden by continuous treatment and rehabilitation. However, determining the correct approach to ensure optimal clinical outcomes can be challenging and remains highly controversial. In particular, with the introduction of the concept of early decompression in brain pathology, the discussion of the timing of decompression in SCI has emerged. In addition to that, the concept of "time is spine" has been added recently, and the mortality and complications caused by SCI have been reduced by providing timely and professional treatment to patients. However, there are many difficulties in establishing international clinical guidelines for the timing of early decompression in SCI because policies for each country and medical institution differ according to the circumstances of medical infrastructure and economic conditions in the surgical treatment of SCI. Therefore, we aim to provide a current review of timing of early decompression in patient with SCI.

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), a noninvasive optical method, utilizes the characteristic absorption spectra of hemoglobin in the near-infrared range to provide information on cerebral hemodynamic changes in various clinical situations. NIRS monitoring have been used mainly to detect reduced perfusion of the brain during orthostatic stress for three common forms of orthostatic intolerance (OI); orthostatic hypotension, neurally mediated syncope, and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. Autonomic function testing is an important diagnostic test to assess their autonomic nervous systems for patients with symptom of OI. However, these techniques cannot measure dynamic changes in cerebral blood flow. There are many experimentations about study of NIRS to reveal the pathophysiology of patients with OI. Research using NIRS in other neurologic diseases (stroke, epilepsy and migraine) are ongoing. NIRS have been experimentally used in all stages of stroke and may complement the established diagnostic and monitoring tools. NIRS also provide pathophysiological approach during rehabilitation and secondary prevention of stroke. The hemodynamic response to seizure has long been a topic for discussion in association with the neuronal damage resulting from convulsion. One critical issue when unpredictable events are to be detected is how continuous NIRS data are analyzed. Besides, NIRS studies targeting pathophysiological aspects of migraine may contribute to a deeper understanding of mechanisms relating to aura of migraine. NIRS monitoring may play an important role to trend regional hemodynamic distribution of flow in real time and also highlights the pathophysiology and management of not only patients with OI symptoms but also those with various neurologic diseases.

본 연구는 국내 음악치료 및 물리치료 분야에서 리듬청각자극(RAS)을 적용하여 수행된 연구를 비교분석하였다. 이를 위해 1999년부터 2018년 11월까지 발표된 학위 논문과 학술지 게재 연구 중 RAS 및 보행기능 관련 주제어를 검색하여 기준에 부합한 45개의 연구를 선정하였고, 세부중재방법과 리듬자극의 유형, 기술된 치료 원리의 측면에서 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 두 영역에서의 연구 모두 일정한 간격의 리듬을 핵심적인 치료 자극으로 사용하고 RAS의 기본 절차를 따른 점에서는 공통적이었지만, 목표기능이나 구체적인 리듬제공방법에 있어서는 차이가 있었다. 음악치료 연구에서는 모두 보행기능이 목표 변인이었던 데 비해, 물리치료 연구에서는 균형이나 근력, 고유수용성감각 등 관련 신체기능이 목표에 포함되었다. 또한 음악치료 연구에서는 다양한 요소를 포함한 '음악'이 리듬자극으로 활용된 반면, 물리치료 연구에서는 메트로놈을 리듬자극으로 활용한 연구가 음악을 활용한 연구보다 많았다. RAS 원리와 관련하여 단순한 기법 설명 외에 동조화와 같이 치료의 원리가 충분히 기술된 연구는 물리치료보다는 음악치료 분야에서 많이 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 음악치료 연구에서는 리듬과 더불어 음악의 다양한 요소가 보행에 미칠 수 있는 영향이 고려되어 음악의 역할이 적극적으로 활용된 반면, 물리치료 연구에서는 보행에 영향을 미치는 다양한 신체기능에 대한 개입이 포함된 경향이 있음을 보여준다. 두 가지 측면 모두 재활에 있어 중요한 부분임을 고려할 때, 본 연구는 다학제간 연구를 기반으로 한 RAS 연구의 기법의 확장 적용에 대한 시사점을 제시한다고 할 수 있다.
