Abstract

This study was to investigate the change of gait temporal parameter and ankle joint moment between patients with achilles tendinitis and healthy people. Thus, the purpose of this study is to clarify biomechanical change of gait in patients with achilles tendinitis and to find risk factor for prevention of achilles tendinitis. We recruited 20 patients with an achilles tendinitis and 20 healthy people. While subjects shuttled 5 times on 13 m distance with comfortable pace, we examined gait function marker with three-dimensional gait analysis system. All subject outstepped center of forceplate during gait and calculated ankle joint moment using software. Obtained data was analyzed using SPSS 12.0 software. In results, we confirmed that patients with achilles tendinitis showed reduction of extension moment in early initial phase and reduction of flexion moment in mid-stance on hip joint. and reduction of flexion moment in early initial phase and reduction of extension moment in late phase on knee joint. And we identified that patients with achilles tendinitis showed reduction of dorsiflexion moment in early stance phase, maximal plantarflexion moment in mid stance phase, and dorsiflexion moment in late stance phase. Thus, there are biomechanical changes on gait in patients with achilles tendinitis compared to healthy people. And, in clinical settings, they should focus on changes of gait in patients with achilles tendinitis. Further study will be undertaken for the biomechanical changes of patietns with achilles tendinitis.

본 연구는 아킬레스 건염 환자들과 정상인들을 대상으로 보행 선형지표와 고관절, 슬관절, 그리고 족관절의 모멘트 변화를 조사하여 아킬레스 건염에 의한 보행의 역학적 변화를 구명하고 아킬레스 건염을 예방하기 위한 예측인자들을 찾고자 실시되었다. 연구의 대상자는 아킬레스 건염 환자 20명과 비슷한 신체조건을 가진 건강한 정상인 20명이며, 대상자가 맨발 상태에서 힘판의 중앙 부분을 밟고 지나가도록 13 m의 거리를 편안한 속도로 5회 왕복하도록 하였다. 또한 대상자가 보행하는 동안 3차원 동작분석 장비를 이용하여 고관절, 슬관절, 그리고 족관절 모멘트를 산출하였다. 수집된 자료들을 SPSS 12.0 소프트웨어를 사용하여 분석하였다. 연구의 결과 아킬레스 건염 환자들의 고관절은 입각기 초기에 신전 모멘트가 감소하였고, 중후반에는 굴곡 모멘트가 감소하였다. 또한 슬관절에서는 입각기 초기부터 지속적인 굴곡 모멘트의 감소가 나타났으며 후기에는 신전 모멘트의 감소를 보였다. 그리고 족관절은 입각기 중반에 저측굴곡 모멘트가 감소하였으며 말기에는 배측 굴곡 모멘트가 감소하였다. 정상인과 비교해 아킬레스 건염 환자들에게서 보행의 역학적인 변화가 두드러지게 나타났으며, 임상에서는 아킬레스 건염 환자의 보행에 대한 변화를 세밀하게 파악하여 치료적 접근을 시도해야 할 것으로 보인다. 그리고 앞으로의 연구에서는 아킬레스 건염 환자에게서 나타나는 역학적인 변화에 대한 조사가 더 이루어져야 할 것이다.
