초록
대상포진성 신경통 환자의 통증을 조정하기 위한 목적으로 본원 통증치료실을 내원한 환자 26명을 대상으로 저출력 레이저 치료를 시행한 결과는 아래와 같다. 1) 통증완화 효과에 대한 평가로서 LLLT는 통증환자에게 비침습적이고 안전하게 시행할 수 있었다. 2) 저출력 레이저 조사후 VAS의 변화는 치료전
There are several methods for the treatment of herpetic neuralgia, but there is no method that results in complete remission. The laser has lately come into use to reduce several acute or chronic pains. Twenty six patients who suffered from herpetic neuralgia were treated with Ne-Ne and Ga Al AS lasers simultaneously 2 or 3 times per week. In order to determine the degree of pain relief, we used the visual analogue scale. The results were as follows. 1) Low level laser therapy (LLLT) was a non-invasive, simple method. 2) The improvement rate after 15 irrradiations of laser was 63%. 3) The Highest improvement rate (24%) was shown after one irradiation of laser. 4) Only one patient above age 60 (3.8%) developed postherpetic neuralgia. 5) There was no significant difference effects of LLLT between above and below the age of 60. 6) There was no complication during or after irradiation of laser.
