Abstract

The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of the superficial heat therapy on the cutaneous blood flow and the skin temperature at pre-auricular region. Two types of the superficial heat therapy-moist hot pack & infrared lamp- were applied to 20 healthy subjects(male: 10, female: 10). For each subject, the two parameters of cutaneous blood flow and skin temperature were measured before and after heat therapy, using laser doppler flowmetry(LDF). The author analyzed the differences of the effects between the two therapies and also characteristics of responsiveness between the two parameters. The results were as follows : 1. The two parameters were significantly increased after both superficial heat therapies. 2. Skin temperature showed a maximum peak immediately after both superficial heat therapies, but cutaneous blood flow showed a maximum peak 4 minutes after both superficial heat therapies. 3. Increased cutaneous blood flow after application of moist hot pack lasted longer than infrared lamp. 4. Increased skin temperature after both superficial heat therapies lasted for 60 minutes, but increased skin temperature after infrared lamp decreased more rapidly than moist hot pack. 5. Amount of changes in cutaneous blood flow after infrared lamp was larger in female than in male, but no significant gender difference was found since 20 minutes after infrared lamp. Both moist hot pack and infrared lamp showed favorable effectiveness in raising cutaneous blood flow and skin temperature. Moist hot pack was slightly superior in maintaining this effect.

본 연구는, 표면열요법 중에서 널리 쓰이는 습열 요법(온습포)과 건열 요법(적외선 램프)이 전이부 표층부 혈류량과 피부온도에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해, 건강한 성인 20명(남 10명, 여 10명)을 대상으로 laser doppler flowmetry를 사용하여 표면열요법 적용전후의 피부 온도와 표층부 혈류량을 측정함으로써 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 온습포와 적외선 램프 모두에서 표층부 혈류량과 피부 온도는 적용전보다 적용후에 유의하게 증가하였다. 2. 표면열 요법 적용 후 표면 온도는 표면열 요법 적용 직후에, 표층부 혈류량은 표면열 요법 적용 4분 후에 가장 높게 나타났으며, 그 이후 꾸준히 감소하였다. 3. 표면열 요법 적용 후 증가된 표층부 혈류량은 적외선 램프에 비해 온습포에서 더 오랫동안 유지되었다. 4. 표면열 요법 적용 후 증가된 피부 온도는 두 요법 모두 60분간 유의성있게 증가된 상태로 유지되었으나, 적외선 램프 적용 후 증가된 피부 온도는 온습포에 비해 급격히 감소하였다. 5. 적외선 램프 적용 직후 여성이 남성보다 표층부 혈류량의 증가가 컸으나, 그 이후 차이가 점차 감소하여 20분 이후에는 성별에 따른 차이가 없었다.
