A comparative analysis of experimental group and the control group in the VAS was not significantly different. ROM(flexion, extension, abduction, and internal rotation) was significantly increased in the experimental group, whereas external rotation significantly did not increased.

The objective of this study is to report the improvement of one patient with physical sequelas induced by spinal epidural abscess surgery. The patient was treated by acupuncture therapy with pulsed electromagnetic therapy and herb medicine. We evaluated the effectiveness by numerical rating scale (NRS). As a result, the patient improved significantly NRS score. And the patient's symptoms were alleviated. We guess that the causes of the patient symptoms are chronic inflammation and fibrosis of dural. We conclude that acupuncture therapy with pulsed electromagnetic therapy is an effective treatment to reduce the residual pain after spinal epidural abscess surgery. But there is a limit on this study due to sufficient number of case. Further studies will be needed.

Cervical traction effects its benefits by immobilizing the neck when it is used in a continuous manner from a reclining position. when used intermittently traction functions by elongating the neck and straightening the cervical Lordosis. This position of slight flexion opens the posterior articulations, widens the intervetebral foramina, disengages the facet surfaces, and elongates the posterior muscular tissues and Ligaments. The duration of traction is arbitary but the amount of traction is that which is tolerated by the patient and benefits the patient's problem. Application of traction in slingh flexion accomplishes the same separation with Less force and thus with Less discomfort experienced by the patient. But the effect of traction on the disks is debated.

Purpose : This study was conducted to investigate correlation between patient satisfaction and rehabilitation motivation in a physical therapy environment. Methods : This study conducted a survey on musculoskeletal and neurological patients receiving rehabilitation treatment at a hospital. The subjects of the study were patients who were currently receiving rehabilitation treatment, either hospitalized or outpatient. 234 people were collected. A questionnaire was consisted of a total of 55 questions, including 27 questions about motivation for rehabilitation, 14 questions about physical therapy service environment, and 14 questions about patient satisfaction and intention to revisit. The detailed items in rehabilitation motivation consisted of 8 questions about task-oriented motivation, 7 questions about change-oriented motivation, 4 questions about obligatory motivation, 4 questions about external motivation, and 4 questions about intrinsic motivation, and in the physical therapy service environment, 4 questions about facility service and therapist service. , 6 questions, 4 questions about services used, 3 questions about friendliness, 4 questions about professionalism, 3 questions about treatment satisfaction, and 2 questions each about repeat visit and recommendation. Results : Facility service (r=.21) was highly correlated for task-oriented motivation, therapist service (r=.22) for change-oriented motivation, therapist service (r=.31) for mandatory motivation, therapist service (r=.19) for external motivation, and facility service (r=.56) for internal motivation. Revisit for task-oriented motivation (r=.47) is kind to change-oriented motives (r=-.13) was highly correlated with kindness (r=.19) for mandatory motives, recommendation (r=.14) for external motives, and expertise (r=.52) for internal motives. There was a high correlation between professionalism (r=.61) for facility services and kindness (r=.53) for therapist services, and revisit (r=.40) for service use. Conclusion : According to the results of this study, it was found that there was a correlation between patient satisfaction and rehabilitation motivation in a physical therapy environment.

This case study was performed to assess the effectiveness of taping therapy for the patient who have patellofemoral joint pain during knee extension exercise. The results were as follows: 1. Pain degree of VAS was decreased at every taping therapy. 2. A number of knee extension was increased at every taping therapy. 3. Diameter of quadriceps was increased at every taping therapy. 4. Pattern of gait was normalized at every taping therapy. We found improve of pain degree, a number of knee extension, diameter of quadriceps, and pattern of gait. These results are imply that taping therapy may have effectiveness to those who have patellofemoral joint pain during knee extension exercise.

Purpose : The main purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of muscle strengthening exercise on balance ability of knee osteoarthritis. The subject were consisted of 30 women patients with knee osteoarthritis. Method : The strengthening exercise group with modality treatment. The strengthening exercise for 40 minutes per day and three times a week during 6 weeks period. Short Form McGill Pain Questionnaire(SFMPQ) was used to measure patient's pain level. Patient Specific Functional Scale(PSFS) was used to measure patient's functional disability level. BPM was used to measure sway area. Global Perceived Effect Scale(GPES) was used to measure recovery or worse of patient's condition. Results : 1. SFMPQ was muscle strengthening exercise showed significantly decreased more than before treatment(p<.05). 2. PSFS was muscle strengthening exercise showed significantly increased more than before treatment (p<.05). 3. Sway area was muscle strengthening exercise showed significantly limited area more than before treatment(p<.05). 4. GPES was muscle strengthening exercise showed significantly increased more than before treatment(p<.05). Conclusion : This study will be used as exercise method of patient with osteoarhtritis.

The objectives of this study was to investigate the incidence and any correction between hemiplegia with pusher syndrome and neuropsychological symptoms such as hemineglect and anosognosia. Pusher syndrome defines that the patient leans toward the hemiplegic side regardless of the position that patient was placed on and resists any attempt for passive correction of posture that would move his weight toward the midline of the body. The subjects of this study were 69 acute hemiplegia who had been rehabilitated at department of rehabilitation medicine, Asan Medical Center from May 1. 1999 through July 31. 1999. The data were analyzed by researchers who were trained for assessment of anosognosia and hemineglect. 12 subjects were excluded for confusion. The method of statistical analysis used for our study was Fisher's exact test. Results of the study disclosed 21 hemiplegia(38.6%) with pusher syndrome. In conclusion, these hemiplegic patients with pusher syndrome did not have any correlation with hemineglect and anosognosia and also had no preference of stroke side.

High turnover intention of physical therapist is one of the serious problems at the present time which providing low quality physical therapy. The data were collected from July 1, to August 31, 2000 and analyzed by ANOVA, Pearson Correlation Coefficients. The summarized result are as follows: 1. The job satisfaction score of physical therapists showed the highest of the pride of patient treatment and total mean score was 2.96. 2. Those who were in the range of 26 to 30 years of age showed the strongest desire to leave the hospital 3. There were 68.8% in male. 47.6% in female who hoped to turnover intention. 4. There were significant difference between those who want to leave and those who want remain in relation patient number, work hospital work years. 5. There were no significant difference between those who want to turnover intention and those who want remain in relation patient number and work years. 6.

Pain is the most common symptom that brings a patient to the hospital. Repetitious stress and sprain injury result in various pains, and so we tried to improve cervical movement and release from pain by using taping technique of actual agonists and postural muscles in addition to psychological relaxation. The 4 patient with neck problems were applied Arikawa taping approaches. The flexor or extensor patterns were determined by Arikawa method at first. if the symptoms and patterns were similar, the taping was attached same point. After taping on major muscles of causing neck pain levator scapula, scalenus medius, sternocleidomastoid, splenius capitis, semispinalis capitis. - we found neck pain released and cervical ROM increased. In conclusion, we determined cervical movement related to rotation of splenius capitis, extention of semispinalis capitis, levator scapula, flexion and rotation of scalenus medius.
