Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of lumbar stabilization exercise using the PNF techniques on the lumbar deep muscles thickness and functional activity in chronic low back pain patient. Group I(n=10): general physical therapy group; Group II(n=10): general lumbar stabilization exercise group; Group III(n=10): lumbar stabilization exercise using PNF techniques(stabilizing reversal, rhythmic stabilization, combination of isotonic) group. Change of pain was measured with visual analog scale(VAS). To observe muscle thickness changes, we measured transverse abdominis(TrA), external oblique(EO), multifidus with real time ultrasound scanning. The functional activity were measured with Oswestry Disability Questionnaire(ODQ) and Roland & Morris Disability Questionnaire(RMDQ). In VAS test, group III had more significantly decreased than before exercise. In muscle thickness test, group III had more significantly increased than before exercise in right/left TrA, EO, multifidus. In ODQ & RMDQ test, group III had more significantly decreased than before exercise. This study show that the PNF techniques is effective in improving the lumbar stability and functional activity in chronic low back pain patients.

본 연구는 만성요통환자에서 PNF 기법을 이용한 요부안정화 운동이 요부 심부근의 두께 변화와 기능적 활동에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 연구대상은 만성 요통환자 30명을 대상으로 하였으며, 실험군을 세군으로 10명씩 무작위 할당하였다; 실험군I은 일반물리치료군(n=10), 실험군II는 일반 요부안정화운동군(n=10), 실험군III은 PNF 기법을 이용한 요부안정화운동군(n=10)으로 나누었다. VAS를 사용하여 통증 변화를 측정하였고, 초음파 장비를 사용하여 4주간의 각 운동에 따른 요부 심부근들(복횡근, 외복사근, 다열근)의 근 두께 변화를 알아보았고, ODQ, RMDQ를 사용하여 기능적 활동 수준 변화를 알아보았다. 그 결과, 실험 전 후에 실험군II와 실험군III의 비교에서 VAS와 근 두께의 변화에 유의한 차이를 보였으며, 각 실험군 간의 유의성 검정 결과, 실험군III에서 다른 군들에 비해 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. ODQ, RMDQ 검사 결과에서는 실험 전 후에 실험군II와 실험군III의 비교에서 유의한 차이를 보였으며, 각 실험군 간의 유의성 검정 결과, 실험군III에서 다른 군들에 비해 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. 이상의 결과로 보아, PNF 기법을 이용한 요부 안정화운동은 일반 요부안정화운동에 비해 통증경감 및 요부에 위치한 심부근들의 두께 향상에 더 효과적임을 알 수 있었으며, 이러한 결과는 기능적 활동수준에도 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
