본 연구는 초음파 영상(ultrasound imaging)을 이용하여 네발기기 자세(quadruped position)에서 골반압박벨트(pelvic compression belt)가 뭇갈래근과 척추세움근의 근두께에 융합적으로 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 실시되었다. 대상자는 30명의 남자대학생으로 실험에 자발적으로 참여한 자로 선정하였다. 골반압박벨트를 위앞엉덩뼈가시아래(anterior superior iliac spines)에 착용한 상태와 착용하지 않은 상태에서 네발기기 자세를 실시하였고, 초음파영상 진단장치를 이용하여 근 두께를 측정하였다. 자료분석은 반복측정분산분석을 이용하였다. 연구결과, 뭇갈래근의 경우 골반압박벨트를 착용하였을 때가 착용하지 않았을 때보다 근두께가 유의하게 증가하였고(p<.05), 척추세움근의 경우도 골반압박벨트를 착용하였을 때가 착용하지 않았을 때보다 근두께가 유의하게 증가하였다(p<.05). 따라서 본 연구결과를 통해 골반압박벨트의 착용이 요통환자에게 효과적이며, 임상에서 다양한 네발기기 자세운동의 처방과 적용 시에 유용한 자료로 활용하고자 한다.

본 연구는 산업 및 업무 현장의 환경에서의 요통 발생률을 최소화하고자 현재 지속적으로 연구되어지는 골반 자세와 요통 예방 치료를 위해 사용되어지는 허리벨트를 사용하여 요부의 척추기립근에 대한 근활성 정도를 알아보고자 하였고, 그 결과 벨트 미착용 시 근 활성이 유의하게 높게 나타났으며, 골반 전방경사시 더 높은 근활성을 나타냈다. 따라서 요부를 안전하고 요통의 위험요인 들로부터 예방하기에 적합한 요추 전만자세의 필요성을 알게 되었고, 허리벨트의 사용으로 인해 보다 올바른 물건 들기 자세를 교육할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구의 목적은 노인 여성의 약화된 천장관절 안정화를 위하여 비탄력 고정식 벨트를 적용하여 균형 능력과 낙상예방에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 노인 여성들은 출산과 폐경으로 천장관절의 약화 및 골반 주위근육들의 약화로 인하여 균형능력의 감소와 낙상위험률이 증가된다. 그러나 이와 관련된 연구는 불충분하다. 연구 대상자들은 실험군과 대조군으로 각각 20명씩 무작위로 배정하였으며, 비탄력 고정식 벨트를 실험군에게 적용한 후 균형 측정기를 사용하여 균형능력과 낙상 위험률을 평가하였다. 또한 비탄력 고정식 벨트를 적용한 실험군에서 하복부근육의 근두께를 초음파기기를 사용하여 실험 전후에 측정하였다. 통계방법은 연구대상자의 일반적 특성을 위하여 독립 t-검정, 균형 및 낙상지수를 위하여 $2{\times}2$ 반복 측정 분산분석 및 근두께를 위하여 짝비교 t-검정을 사용하였다. 두 그룹의 교호작용 효과는 안정성 지수(F1,38=47.24, p=0.001), 퓨리에 지수(F1,38=88.83, p=0.001), 체중분포 지수(F1,38=50.21, p=0.001) 및 낙상 지수(F1,38=21.59, p=0.001)에서 모두 통계적으로 유의하게 나타났다. 또한 비탄력 고정식 벨트를 적용한 결과 실험 후 복횡근(p=0.001)과 내복사근(p=0.001)의 근두께는 통계적으로 유의하게 증가하였다. 노인 여성들의 약화된 천장관절의 강화 및 안정화 방법으로 비탄력 고정식 벨트는 균형 및 낙상 예방에 긍정적이며 용이성, 보편성 및 경제적으로 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

Background : To assess the effect of a pelvic compression belt on the strength of hip flexor in healthy young individuals. Study design: Pre- and post-treatment measurement design on one factor was used. Methods : 30 healthy volunteers (male: 15, female: 15) participated in this study. Dynamometer was used to measure the strength of hip flexor, and measurements were performed before and after the application of the pelvic compression belt at neutral position of hip joint and at 30 cm raised position from floor with straight leg in supine. Results : After the application of the pelvic compression belt, the strengths of hip flexor measured at both positions were significantly increased when compared with before the application (p<.05). However, at neutral position of hip joint and at 30cm raised position from floor, there were significantly different in the changing patterns in the strengths of hip flexor between men and women (p>.05). Conclusion : The findings suggest that the pelvic compression belt is helpful in strengthening hip muscles. With easy application, it is sufficiently feasible for clinical use.

Design: Randomized Controlled Trial. Methods: This study randomly divided the experimental and control groups in 24 healthy adults wearing pelvic compression belts, and they conducted Swiss ball exercise programs, 5 times for 40 minutes a week during 3 weeks in conclusion 15 times. Results: The results showed that the experimental groups have increased significantly in muscle strength and flexibility (p<.05). Conclusion: This study showed that pelvic compression belts and Swiss ball exercise programs will help health improvements such as muscle strength, flexibility, and balance in normal adults, and it is also thought to be worth applying to patients with back pain.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of using a pressure bio-feedback unit (PBFU) and a pelvic belt (PB) on the electromyographic (EMG) signal amplitude of the gluteus medius (Gmed) and the quadratus lumborum (QL) during hip abduction exercise when lying on the side. Methods : Twenty able-bodied volunteers (10 male, 10 female) were recruited for this study. The EMG signal amplitude was randomly measured during hip abduction with preferred hip abduction (PHA), with PBFU, and with PB. The surface EMG signal was recorded from the Gmed and the QL. Data were analyzed using a one-way repeated ANOVA. Results : Muscle activity of Gmed was significantly higher in PBFU and in PB than in PHA (p<.05). There were no significant difference between PBFU and PB(p>.05). Muscle activity of the QL was significantly lower in PB than in PHA(p<.05). The Gmed/QL muscle activity ratio was also significantly higher in PBFU and in PB than in PHA(p<.05), with no significant difference between PBFU and PB (p>.05). Conclusion : Based on these findings, using a PBFU and a PB is an effective method to disassociate QL use from Gmed use during hip abduction exercises when lying on the side.

Background: The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the pelvic compression belt (PCB) on the thickness of the transversus abdominis (TrA) during active straight leg raising (ASLR). Methods: Thirty healthy subjects (10 men and 20 women) volunteered to participate in this study. The thickness of TrA was measured using a real-time ultrasonic diagnostic imaging system. Subjects were instructed to rest in a resting (hook-lying) position and to perform ASLR with and without the PCB. The PCB was positioned below the anterior superior iliac spine with stabilizing pressure from elastic bands. Results: In the resting position and during ASLR, the thickness of the TrA significantly differed between subjects with and without PCB (p<.05). In addition, there was a significant interaction between the measurement position and the presence or absence of PCB (p<.05). Conclusions: These findings suggest that the PCB may affect deep core muscles such as TrA during various activities. Further studies are required to generalize the results of the present study.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the dynamic balance and activity of internal oblique muscle, multifidus muscle, gluteus maximus muscle, biceps femoris muscle during the Y balance test following the wearing of pelvic compression belt. Forty healthy adults were recruited for this test. The dynamic balance score was estimated as the following: (anterior+posteromdial+posterolateral)/($3{\times}leg$ length)${\times}100$. The electromyography signals were measured through %reference voluntary contraction, which was normalized by reference voluntary contraction of Y balance test without wearing the pelvic compression belt. The paired t-test was carried out to compare the dynamic balance score and the activity of the trunk and hip extensor with and without the wearing of pelvic compression belt. The dynamic balance score of the Y balance test when wearing pelvic compression belt was significantly than when measured without wearing the pelvic compression belt (p<.05). The muscle activity of the internal oblique and the multifidus was significantly decreased when wearing pelvic compression belt (p<.05). The muscle activity of the gluteus maximus was significantly increased when wearing pelvic compression belt (p<.05). However, there was no significant difference in hamstring muscle activity, with or without wearing the belt (p>.05). In conclusion, this study shows that the wearing of pelvic compression belt affects trunk muscle and hip extensor muscle activity related to the pelvic mobility and stability and increases dynamic balance and also contributes to the stabilization of the external pelvic stabilization.

Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate that effect of manual therapy using pelvic compression belt on hip abductor strength and balance ability in total knee replacement (TKR) patients. Methods: The subjects consisted of twenty two post-TKR patients. Participants were randomly assigned to a pelvic belt group (n=11) and a placebo group (n=11). All participants underwent manual therapy including range of motion exercise, soft tissue mobilization around knee joint, strengthening exercise (Quad set, SLR, sidelying hip abduction, standing hamstring curls, sitting knee extension, step-up, wall slide to $45^{\circ}$ knee flexion). Manual therapy was executed five times a week for 2 weeks. Outcome measures included hip abductor strength by using Biodex system 4 pro, anterior to posterior balance, medial to lateral balance, total balance by using Biodex balance system SD. Results: After the completion of the manual therapy, hip abductor strength was showed statistically significant improvements in pelvic belt group (p<.05). Anterior to posterior balance, medial to lateral balance, total balance were showed statistically significant improvements in pelvic belt group and placebo group (p<.05). There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in hip abductor strength and there was no statistically significant difference in balance. Conclusions: This results suggest that manual therapy using pelvic compression belt has could be used for selective muscle activation of the hip abductor muscle and has useful in hip abductor strength and balance ability in TKR patients.
