Background: Correction of secondary cleft nose deformity is one of the most important portions in the management of cleft lip patients. Various techniques have been introduced to achieve adequate shape, balance, and symmetry of anatomical landmarks. None of these methods can claim to universally solve all aspects of the problems encountered in secondary cleft deformity surgery. Some authors overlook the aspect of functional rehabilitation with regard to nasal respiratory pathway problems, which is present in over 90% of the patients. This study aimed to evaluate the aesthetic and functional improvements of the authors' non-destructive technique. Methods: With over 15 years of experience, open rhinoplasty was performed, which included total remodeling of the deformed lower lateral cartilage using several suture fixation techniques without any graft or implantation with septo-turbinoplasty. A total of 150 questionnaires were sent by e-mail, but 55 completed questionnaires were returned. Surgical outcomes were evaluated using questionnaire responses, and outcomes were divided into five categories each for esthetic and functional analyses. Results: The satisfaction rate ranged from 75 % to 98%, which means "more or less," "very much," and "absolutely yes" in the esthetic and functional viewpoints. Conclusion: The results of this study strongly recommend performing the suture fixation technique and functional rehabilitation simultaneously for cleft lip/nose correction.

Object : This study was planned to show the influences of MET(muscle energy techniques) treatment and acupuncture treatment on iliopsoas muscles of sprain and strain of lumbar spine patients. Method : This study was carried out on the 39 patients who had been treated for their sprain and strain of lumbar spine from March 2 to October 15, 2010 in the department of oriental rehabilitaion medicine, Dongsuwon oriental medicine hospital. And 22 out of 39 patients had a tenderness and pain in their iliopsoas muscles. And we divided those 22 patients into 2 groups by blocked randomization; group A took near acupuncture point needling treatment on the iliopsoas muscles, group B took MET(muscle energy techniques) treatment on the iliopsoas muscles. To evaluate the efficiency of each treatment, all patients were examined with VAS(visual analogue scale) before treatment and after the 3rd, 5th treatment. Result : On the VAS, it was decreased significantly after treatment in all groups. And it didn't show the clear difference between two groups. Conclusion : In this study, it did not show statistical difference in VAS between two groups.

For the self-directed rehabilitation of upper extremity hemiplegia patients, in this paper we propose an interface method capable of doing bilateral exercises in rehabilitation robotics. This is a method for estimating information of movements from the unaffected-side, and projects it to the affected-side in order. That the affected-side is followed the movements of the unaffected-side. For estimation of the unaffected-side movements information, gyro sensor data and acceleration sensor data were fused. In order to improve the measurement error in data fusion, a HDR filter and a complementary filter were applied. Estimated motion information is derived the one side of the drive input of rehabilitation robot. In order to validate the proposed method, experimental equipment is designed to be similar to the body's joints. The verification was performed by comparing the estimation angle data from inertial sensors and the encoder data which were attached to the mechanism.

The multiple acupuncture techniques have been used to relieve the pain of lateral ankle sprain. Recently, early functional rehabilitation is emphasized in rehabilitative concepts using active ROM, facilitated proprioception, alphabet exercise and so forth. Similarly, in oriental rehabilition medicine, traditional movement technique called "Dong-Ki" has been used to relieve pain of ankle sprain. So we used "Dong-Ki" technique with SSP(silver spike point) electrotherapy transformed from alphabet exercise and evaluated the effects in method of randomized controlled trials. Methods : 27 outpatients with lateral ankle sprains were randomized into two groups : 15 samples and 12 controls. Sample group was treated with "Dong-Ki" technique(writing his name with foot) with SSP electrotherapy to relieve pain during additionally. "Dong-KI". Outcomes were measured by 10cm VAS and ankle circumference(cm). Results : In terms of VAS, Sample group had inclination of pain relieving but not significantly meaningful. In terms of ankle circumference measurement, Sample group showed significantly improved.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to analyse the domestic trends of Chuna treatments techniques in Korean literature. Methods: We searched the clinical trials on Chuna treatments through both electronic search(used keyword 'chuna') and hand search in 3 Korean web databases(OASIS, NDSL, RISS) and 4 related journals(The Journal of Korea CHUNA Manual Medicine for Spine & Nerves, Journal of Oriental Rehabilitation Medicine, The Journal of Korean Acupuncture & Moxibustion Society, Journal of Korean Medicine Society). All relevant clinical trials were selected and extracted to be analyzed according to their published year, journals, types of study, used techniques. Results: The number of the clinical studies tends to increase every year. The studies on Chuna treatments were mainly published in The Journal of Korea Chuna Manual Medicine for Spine & Nerves. In case of types of study, case reports and case series were predominant. The most frequently adopted techniques of Chuna in studies were flexion distraction technique for lumbar spine and JS supine position cervical spine distraction. Conclusions: Through the results of this study, we hope that the more qualitative education could be conducted by strengthening the techniques which often used. Also analysis of the reason of rarely used techniques should be conducted and the modification or developing techinques should be followed as a counter measures. As applying more rigorous methodology, more qualitative evidence based Chuna studies should be conducted in future clinical research.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of one proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation technique and static stretching on calf muscle tightness. The subjects consist of 9 hemiplegics, and 9 quadriplegics. The eighteen subjects were randomly divided into 3 groups: prorioceptive neuromuscular facilitation(6 persons), static stretching(6 persons) and control(6 persons). Contract relax antagonist contract and static stretching techniques were applied continuously for twenty minutes each. Of the many proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques, only the contract relax antagonist contract technique was applied. The static stretching technique was applied with the subject placed in standing on a seventy degree inclined tilt table for twenty minutes. A wedge was placed under the feet to obtain maximum dorsiflexion. Wedge thickness varied with each subject. Results revealed: (1) a significant difference between the experimental and the control groups(p<0.05). (2) a significant difference between contract relax antagonist contract and static stretching groups(p<0.05). (3) At day five, the final increments were: contract relax antagonist contract $11.9{\pm}1.90^{\circ}$, static stretching $7.7{\pm}2.3^{\circ}$(mean${\pm}$standard deviation).

Dr. Lawrence H Jones developed innovative approach for the treatment of neuromuscular and musculo-skeletal disorders such as fibromyalgia, myofacial pain syndrome, any other muscle pain. This technique is called Strain/Counterstrain technique which uses effect of neuromuscular reflex for treatment of strain. First, Relieving spinal or other joint pain by passively putting the joint into its position of greatest comfort; secondly relieving pain by reduction and arrest of the continuing inappropriate proprioceptor activity. This was accomplished by markedly shortening the muscle that contains the malfunctioning muscle spindle by applying. mild strain to its antagonists. In other words, the inappropriate strain reflex is inhibited by application of counterstrain. Many other techniques have been developed for treating of muscle pain due to somatic dysfunction, but we want to introduce you to strain/counterstrain technique because this is basic concept and theory of Chum therapy for controling motor system.
