수직 견인요법 적용 유무에 따른 재활운동이 여성 요통환자들의 요부 신전근력 굴신비율 및 통증지수 변화에 미치는 영향

초록

This study selected 28 female patients with low back pain (15 female patients belonged to vertical traction MedX exercise group while 13 female patients belonged to MedX exercise group). The patients in two groups underwent 8 weeks of differentiated exercise treatment methods; lumbar extension strength, flexion/extension strength ratio, and changes in VAS were measured to draw the following results. After 8 weeks of treatments, two groups showed significant increase in muscle strength in 0°, 12°, 24°, 36°, 48°, 60°, and 72° conditions (p<0.01). For lumbar flexion/extension strength ratio, vertical traction MedX exercise group showed 31.02% decrease while the MedX exercise group showed 25.10% decrease (p<0.05) resulting in the significant difference between two groups. For changes in VAS, vertical traction MedX exercise group showed 70.85% decrease while MedX exercise group showed 47.02% decrease resulting in the significant difference between two groups (p<0.01). Summarizing the above results, the results showed that combined exercise of lumbar vertical traction and MedX application Pneu-weight system aid in restoring daily life restrictions and daily life function in early stage because the combined exercise has positive effective in strengthening lumbar extension strength and reducing lumbar flexion/extension strength ratio and VAS.
