Abstract

The study was performed to determine the impact of the gastrocnemius taping with balance training on spasticity and balance ability of the ankle joint. A total of 25 stroke subjects were divided into two groups: a taping with balance training (n=14), a sham taping with balance training (n=11). Spasticity assesment was scored by modified ashworth scale. Balance ability assesment was performed by functional reach test (FRT), the timed up & go test (TUG). The stability index (SI), the left-right weight distribution (left-right WD), the toe-heel weight distribution (toe-heel WD) were analyzed in the eyes open conditions(EO) and eyes closed conditions(EC) conditions using by the Tetrax interactive balance system. The experimental group showed a significant improvement in SI, left-right WD and toe-heel WD in the EO and EC, MAS, FRT, TUG. In comparison between the groups, a significant improvement was detected in FRT, TUG, SI and left-right WD in the EO, and left-right WD and toe-heel WD in the EC. It was found out that a short period of balance training with taping is effective on spasticity and balance ability in stroke patients. Therefore, any stroke patient without skin damage is encouraged to use the gastrocnemius taping for balance rehabilitation.

본 연구는 뇌졸중 환자에게 균형훈련과 동시에 장딴지근에 테이핑을 적용하여 발목관절 경직 및 균형능력에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 진행된 연구이다. 뇌졸중 환자 25명은 장딴지근에 테이핑을 적용한 상태에서 균형훈련을 한 연구군 14명, 거짓 테이핑을 적용한 상태에서 균형훈련을 한 대조군 11명으로 나뉘었다. 경직 평가는 수정된 ashworth 척도로 점수화 하였고, 균형능력 평가는 기능적 팔뻗기와 일어나 걸어가기 검사, TETRAX를 이용하여 눈 뜨고 감은 상태에서의 안정성 지수(stability index), 왼쪽 오른쪽 체중지지도, 앞 뒤 체중지지도를 선택하여 분석하였다. 연구군은 경직, 기능적 팔뻗기, 일어나 걸어가기, 눈 뜨고 감은 상태에서의 안정성 지수, 왼쪽 오른쪽 체중지지도, 앞 뒤 체중지지도에 유의한 개선이 있었다. 두 군간 비교에서는 연구군이 대조군보다 기능적 팔뻗기, 일어나 걸어가기, 눈 뜬 상태에서 안정성 지수, 왼쪽 오른쪽 체중지지도, 눈 감은 상태에서 왼쪽 오른쪽 체중지지도 앞 뒤 체중지지도에 유의한 개선을 보였다. 테이핑 적용상태에서 단기간의 균형훈련은 뇌졸중 환자의 경직 및 균형능력에 효과적인 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러므로 피부에 손상 및 이상이 없는 뇌졸중 환자라면 균형재활에 있어 장딴지근 테이핑 적용을 적극 권고하는 바이다.
