Abstract

This study examined the effects of balance taping therapy on improving knee pain and the obstacles to daily activity in rural elderly women. The research design was a quasi-experimental research using a non-equivalent control group pre-test and post-test design. The data were collected from January 19th to April 14th, 2017. The research subjects included female elderly over 65 years old who visited 12 senior centers located at Y city in rural areas. The participants were composed of 26 people in the experimental group and 28 people in the control group. Data were collected before and 24 hours after balance taping therapy, and the pain and obstacles to daily activity were measured. The collected data were analyzed using the PASW Statistics 23 Program, which included a $X^2-test$, Shapiro-Wilk test, and Mann-Whitney U test. After the intervention, significant differences were observed in the knee pain (Z=-6.658, p<.001) and obstacles to daily activity (Z=-3.466, p=.001). With regard to lower domain variables of the obstacles to daily activity, significant differences in standing up (Z=-2.860, p=.004), daily activity (Z=-2.629, p=.009), walking (Z=-3.868, p<.001), and dressing up (Z=-2.049, p=.040) were observed between the two groups. On the other hand, there were no significant differences in grip (Z=-.542, p=.588) and arm stretching (Z=-.416, p=.678). In conclusion, applying balance taping to rural elderly women clearly decreases the level of knee pain, reduces the obstacles to daily activity, and improves their quality of life.

본 연구의 목적은 밸런스 테이핑요법이 농촌 여성노인의 무릎통증과 일상활동장애 개선에 미치는 영향을 확인하는 것이다. 연구설계는 비동등성 대조군 전후설계를 이용한 유사실험연구이다. 자료수집 기간은 2017년 1월 19일부터 4월 14일까지이며, 연구 대상은 농촌지역인 Y시에 소재한 경로당을 방문한 65세 이상 여성노인 54명으로 실험군 26명, 대조군 28명이다. 자료는 밸런스 테이핑 적용 전과 24시간 후에 무릎통증과 일상활동장애 정도를 조사하였고, 수집된 자료는 PASW Statistics 23.0 프로그램을 이용하여 $X^2-test$, Shapiro-Wilk test, Mann-Whitney U test로 분석하였다. 본 연구결과 24시간 동안 밸런스 테이핑요법을 적용받은 실험군이 대조군에 비해 무릎통증(Z=-6.658, p<.001)과 일상활동장애(Z=-3.466, p=.001) 정도가 유의하게 감소하였다. 일상활동장애의 하위영역 중에서는 일어서기(Z=-2.860, p=.004), 일상적 활동하기(Z=-2.629, p=.009), 걷기(Z=-3.868, p<.001)와 몸단장하기(Z=-2.049, p=.040)의 장애정도가 유의하게 감소하였고, 물건 쥐기(Z=-.542, p=.588)와 팔 뻗치기(Z=-.416, p=.678)는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 본 연구결과 밸런스 테이핑요법은 농촌 여성노인의 무릎통증 감소와 일어서기, 일상적 활동하기, 걷기, 몸단장하기와 같은 일상활동장애 개선에 효과적인 간호중재로 확인되었다. 추후 대상자의 사전 통증정도, 밸런스 테이핑 적용횟수, 24시간이상 적용에 따른 장기효과, 다른 신체 부위 적용에 따른 효과 확인과 밸런스 테이핑 적용이 통증의 감소로 우울감 등 심리 건강에도 효과적인지 파악하는 후속연구, 그리고 밸런스 테이핑 적용이 통증감소와 일상활동장애를 개선시키는 생리학적 기전을 밝히는 연구를 제언한다.
