Objective : This study obtained normative values for variable parameters of lumbar function with the isoinertial triaxial dynamometer in patients with chronic low back pain. Subjects and Methods : 30 patients(male 15, female 15) with chronic low back pain in this study. Variable parameters that were measured with the Isostation B-200 were lumbar range of motion, isometric maximum torques, and maximum velocities in three axis. Results : In patient male group mean R.O.M. was $82.9{\pm}12.5$ degrees in lumbar rotation, $76.5{\pm}17.1$ degrees in lumbar flexion/extension, and $64.3{\pm}14.5$ degrees in lumbar lateral flexion. In patient female group mean R.O.M. was $78.4{\pm}18.5$ degrees in lumbar rotation, $71.7{\pm}20.4$ degrees in lumbar flexion/extension, and $63.2{\pm}14.4$ degrees in lumbar lateral flexion. In patient male group mean isometric maximum torques was $64.7{\pm}23.8ft-lbs$ in lumbar rotation, $81.1{\pm}42.0ft-lbs$ in lumbar flexion, $122.2{\pm}43.6ft-lbs$ in lumbar extension, and $101.0{\pm}37.0ft-lbs$ in lumbar lateral flexion. In patient female group mean isometric maximum torques was $41.9{\pm}9.2ft-lbs$ in lumbar rotation, $49.9{\pm}23.9ft-lbs$ in lumbar flexion, $90.1{\pm}26.8ft-lbs$ in lumbar extension, and $62.0{\pm}16.7ft-lbs$ in lumbar lateral flexion. In patient male group mean maximum velocity of isoinertial exercise with low (25%) resistance was $102.4{\pm}28.8deg/sec$ in lumbar rotation, $108.9{\pm}32.2deg/sec$ in lumbar flexion/extension, and $103.5{\pm}30.4deg/sec$ in lumbar lateral flexion. In patient female group mean maximum velocity of isoinertial exercise with low (25%) resistance was $84.1{\pm}24.4deg/sec$ in lumbar rotation, $93.2{\pm}32.9deg/sec$ in lumbar flexion/extension, and $98.5{\pm}33.7deg/sec$ in lumbar lateral flexion. In patient male group mean maximum velocity of isoinertial exercise with high (50%) resistance was $74.0{\pm}20.9deg/sec$ in lumbar rotation, $98.7{\pm}32.8deg/sec$ in lumbar flexion/extension, and $85.0{\pm}25.8deg/sec$ in lumbar lateral flexion. In patient female group mean maximum velocity of isoinertial exercise with high (50%) resistance was $67.3{\pm}26.4deg/sec$ in lumbar rotation, $82.5{\pm}31.0deg/sec$ in lumbar flexion/extension, and $79.7{\pm}23.9deg/sec$ in lumbar lateral flexion.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether unstable surface core exercise is more effective than stable surface core exercise on improving functional movement and balance and reducing pain in sedentary female workers with backpain. Participants were randomly assigned to an unstable surface core exercise(UEG; n=10) or a stable surface core exercise(SEG; n=10) group. They participated in the given exercise for 8 weeks. FMS, Y-Balance and VAS were measured before and after the participation in exercise, which were subjected to a repeated-measures ANOVA. In the case of a significant interaction between time and group, paired sample t-tests were conducted for a post hoc analysis within each subject group. Results indicated that FMS of the UEG had a significant effect on HS (p<.01), ASLR (p<.05) and TS(p<.001), but not for other variables. YBT did not show a significant effect for any variable (AT, PL, PM, TS), although the main effect of time was significant in both subject groups. VAS had a significant effect only in the UEG(p<.001). Our findings indicate that compared to SEG, UEG is more effective for improving functional movement and reducing pain, but not for improving balance, in sedentary female workers with backpain.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of stabilization exercise performed after abdominal drawing exercise using pressure biofeedback for 8 weeks on pain level, performance of transverse abdominis, back pain disability index, and quality of life in women in their 30s less than one year after giving birth. Methods: A total of 20 women who voluntarily participated less than one year after giving birth were randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group. The control group was subjected to abdominal drawing exercise before lumbar stabilization exercise, and the experimental group was subjected to abdominal drawing exercise using pressure biofeedback before lumbar stabilization exercise thrice a week for eight weeks. The quadruple visual analog scale (QVAS), the performance of transverse abdominis, the Korean version of the Oswestry disability index (KDOI), the inventory of functional status after childbirth (IFSAC), and the Short Form-12 item (SF-12) were evaluated before and after the intervention. Results: Except for the Physical Components Summary Scale of SF-12, after the intervention, the experimental group showed significant improvement in QVAS, performance of Transverse abdominis , KDOI, and Mental Components Summary Scale of SF-12 compared to the control group. Conclusion: Selective deep muscle activation through abdominal drawing exercises using pressure biofeedback can help rehabilitation for women after postpartum.
The purpose of this study was to present the IMU sensor based trunk stabilization exercise and to evaluate the changes in the muscle activity and thickness with non-specific low back pain patients (N=30). They were classified into two groups; lumbar stabilization exercise using IMU sensor (ILS), (n1=20) and general lumbar stabilization exercise (GLS), (n2=10). By comparing the difference between pre and post intervention via trunk muscle activity and muscle thickness, the significant differences were identified. Muscle activity was measured on external oblique (EO), internal oblique (IO), and multifidus (MF) by using surface electromyography (sEMG). Muslce thickness was measured on external oblique, internal oblique, transverse abdominis (TrA), and multifidus (MF) by using ultrasonography. sEMG activity was recorded at right side-bridge position. Each group performed the proposed lumbar stabilization exercise for 30 minutes a day, 5 times a week for 4 weeks. Trunk muscle activity was observed with a significant increase in the IO of ILS (p<.05) and a decrease in the MF of GLS (p<.05). Trunk muscle thickness was significantly increased in left EO and both IO of GLS (p<.05), and also significant increased right EO, both IO, both TrA, and both MF of the ILS (p<.05). In the future, a convergence approach of rehabilitation and engineering is needed to select a sensor suitable for rehabilitation purposes, study the validity and reliability of data, and produce appropriate rehabilitation contents.
Background: The purpose of this study was to the effects of stretching on lumbar flexibility after lumbar and lower muscle strengthening exercise. Design: Randomized Controlled Trial.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the phases of back pain occurring on pregnant women, and to raise the necessity of the pain management on the basis of the former analysis. The objective group is 284 pregnant women who visited department of OBGY of hospital located both in Seoul and Andong. The results are as follows; 1. 204(71.8%) pregnant women were suffering from back pain. The ratio of pain occurrance in terms of the duration of pregnancy shows that 78.3% within 3 pregnant months, 68.4% between four and six months and 72.1% over seven month. Most common ares of pain was low back area rating 60.5%. 2. The most painful postural for the suffering women was lying on the back rating 35.9% and the next painful posture was standing rating 34.4%. And the most painful movement was to maintaining continues movement(57.8%). Twisting back rates the second(17.2%). These two variables were relevant each other(p<0.05). 3. 46.7% of pregnant women were experiencing nocturnal pain. Among women experienced the pain before pregnancy, 39.9% were suffering during the pregnancy. The occurrence of nocturnal pain was related to the pain before and after the pregnancy(p<0.05). 4. 58.8% of pregnant women who experience back pain take the pain for granted as a normal proceeding of pregnancy while 3.9% recognize the symptom as an abnormal. Pain recognition in accordance with the phases does not show much difference(p<0.05). 5. It is shown that the more one delivers the number of babies, the faster back pain occurs(p<0.01). 6. 32.3% of the pain-suffering women have family member(s) having back pain. Family member(s) of the women who does not experience the pain don't have the pain either. This case reports 46.1%. Statistically, these two variables are relevant(p<0.01). 7. 43.0% of back pain experiencing women does not have any particular management plan against the pain. 20.7% is exercising as for prevention. Women who recognize the necessity of some means of therapy for their pain marked 42.9%. The majority(65.8%) of women responded exercise gymnastic work-out are most appropriate pain management. The above results show that a great number of pregnant women is experiencing back pain, however, they properly managed. This span suggests that appropriate advocacy and education for pregnant women is necessary. It is recommended that positive contribution can be made to better health of pregnant women when pain management by physical therapist is given.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to examine whether or not Postural Yinyang Correction of TMJ(Temporomandibular joint) using Standard intraoral appliance could decrease chronic low back pain. Methods : We reviewed the medical records of 40 patients with TMJ disorder aged from 30 to 70 years from 124 patients who were treated in chronic low back pain at Department of Acupuncture & Moxibustion of Korean Medicine Hospital of Dong-Eui University from November $1^{st}$, 2015 to June $5^{th}$, 2016. The patients were divided into 2 groups: Group A and Group B. In Group A, we treated the patients with acupuncture, sweet bee venom treatment and FCST(Functional Cerebrospinal Therapy) through Standard intraoral appliance from ABA(Accurate Balancing Appliance), Full body exercise therapy, and Upper cervical alignment balance therapy. In Group B, we treated the patients with acupuncture and sweet bee venom treatment. To estimate the effectiveness in controlling pain, we analyzed the Visual analog scale(VAS). To evaluate functional change of patients, we analyzed the Oswestry low back disability questionnaire(ODI). Results : In both groups, VAS and ODI decreased significantly. In the VAS, the result of Group A is significantly more effective than that of Group B. In the ODI, the result of Group A is statistically less effective compared to that of Group B, but not significantly. Conclusions : According to the results, Postural Yinyang Correction of TMJ using Standard intraoral appliance may be effective treatment for low back pain, but the further researches are needed.
