Twenty five cancer patients were assigned to two groups: The experimental group which received Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) training and the control group without the training. Base line data for dependent variables -nausea and vomiting, state anxiety and symptom distress- were collected when the subjects of both groups received the first cycle chemotherapy. Then the experimental group was trained for PMR between the first and the second cycle chemotherapy. The same dependent variables were measured during the second cycle chemotherapy from the subjects. Results indicated that the PMR group showed no significant difference in severity of nausea and vomiting compared to the control group. Although the significance was not supported, the severity of nausea and vomiting in experimental group decreased while control group increased between the first and fifth day of the second cycle chemotherapy. The experimental group showed significantly less state anxiety during the second cycle than the control group (p＜0.01). Significantly low symptom distress was also reported in the experimental group compared to the control group(p<0.01). The result suggests that PMR training may be an effective procedure for helping cancer patients cope with the adverse effects of their chemotherapy.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of progressive muscle relaxation on nausea, vomiting, fatigue, anxiety, and depression in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Methods: This study was a quasi-experimental research using non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design. Data were collected from outpatients in a university hospital from April to August, 2009. There were 74 participants, 39 in the experimental group and 35 in the control group. The experimental group was given daily the progressive muscle relaxation for 20 min during three weeks. The structured questionnaire was used to measure nausea, vomiting, fatigue, anxiety, and depression. Data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 12.0 program, $x^2$-test, Fisher's exact test, t-test and ANCOVA were conducted to examine the homogeneity and the research hypotheses. Results: There were statistically significant decreases in anxiety and depression in the experimental group compared to the control group. However, there were no significant differences in nausea, vomiting, and fatigue between the groups. Conclusion: In this study, progressive muscle relaxation was effective in alleviating anxiety and depression of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Therefore, progressive muscle relaxation can be usefully utilized as a nursing intervention that enhances psychological function of cancer patients.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of progressive muscle relaxation therapy on nausea, vomiting and anxiety experienced by children who were histologically diagnosed as malignancy and have received cancer chemotherapy. Twenty subjects with 10 in experimental group and 10 in control group, between the age of 7 to 12 years participated in this study. All subjects were admitted for inpatients chemotherapy at the S hospital between April to August 1998. The methods used for interventional muscle relaxation were both the 16 items of the progressive muscle relaxation therapy developed by Jacobson and the 4 items of the muscle relaxation therapy by Wolpe. The method for assessing nausea, vomiting was the Index of Nausea and Vomiting by Rhodes et al and that for anxiety was State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children by Spielberger. The data was analysed by repeated measures ANOVA and Scheffe test using SAS program. The results were as follows : 1. On measurement of nausea, vomiting, in the experimental group, the mean values of the second and the third measurements showed tendency to slightly decrease compared with the first measurement, but there was no statistically significance. And in the control group, there were no significant differences among first measurement, second measurement and third measurement. Also there was no significant difference in the mean values assessing nausea, vomiting between experimental and control group (F=1.33, p=0.2645). 2. The results assessing state anxiety showed, in the experimental group, progressive decrease in mean values at each measurement, while the control group showed no significant differences between the mean values of each measurement. Also there was statistically significant difference in state anxiety measurements between experimental and control group(F=4.36, p=0.05). In conclusion, muscle relaxation therapy for school-aged children with chemotherapy could not be effective to decrease nausea, vomiting, but it could be effective to decrease anxiety.

This study was designed to investigate the effects of the progressive muscle relaxation on behavioral states and emotional reactions of adolescent athletes. The participants were 167 adolescent male soccer players aged between 12 and 18 who were junior or high school students in Seoul. Ninety-three of them were assigned to the experimental group, while seventy-four to the control group. The experimental group was treated by 10 sessions (20 min./session) of Jacobson's progressive muscle relaxation for two weeks, while the control group was not treated. The self and observer reported behavioral states, general stress by visual analogue scale, physical symptoms of stress, athletic stress, state anxiety, depression, self-esteem were measured before and after two weeks of the progressive muscle relaxation. The results were as follows ; 1. The self and observer reported behavioral states were significantly decreased in the experimental group compared with the control group. 2. The general stress and the gastrointestinal symptoms of stress were significantly decreased in the experimental group compared with the control group. No significant difference on athletic stress was found between the two groups. The depression and the state anxiety were significantly decreased in the experimental group compared with the control group. The self-esteem was significantly increased in the experimental group compared with the control group. 3. The influential factors on behavioral state of adolescent male athlete were depression and state anxiety. The accelerating factor on behavioral state change after the progressive muscle relaxation was state anxiety. These results are suggested that the progressive muscle relaxation could be effective in stabilizing behavioral state, decreasing general stress, gastrointestinal symptoms of stress, depression, state anxiety, in increasing self-esteem of adolescent male athletes. And the behavioral state change after the progressive muscle relaxation was influenced by state anxiety.

천궁의 메탄올 수용액 추출물의 진정 작용을 밝히기 위하여 staircase test를 시행하였으며, 근육이완 효과를 검색하기 위하여 rotarod test를 시행하였다. 진정 작용의 기전 구명을 위하여 GABA 및 glycine 수용체에 작용하는 약물인 picrotoxin, yohimbine, isoniazid, strychnine 등의 약물을 이용하여 발작 유도에 걸리는 시간을 비교 관찰하였다. 또한 생체에서의 안전성을 검증하기 위하여 Irwin의 행동시험 및 신경세포에 대한 독성을 평가하기 위하여 MTT test를 실시하여 다음의 결과를 얻었다. 1. Staircase 실험에서 천궁 추출물을 10mg/kg 용량으로 경구 투여했을 때 climbing수는 대조군과 차이가 없었으나, rearing수에서는 대조군에 비하여 42%의 감소를 보였다. 2. 30mg/kg의 용량으로 경구 투여했을 때, climbing수는 대조군과 차이가 없었으나, rearing수에서는 51%의 감소를 유발하였다. 3. 근육이완 작용을 탐색하기 위한 rotarod 실험에서는 대조군과 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 4. 천궁 추출물의 투여는 picrotoxin, isoniazid, yohimbine에 의한 발작에서는 큰 변화를 유발하지 않았으나, strychnine에 의한 발작 유도시간은 41%의 증가를 유발하였다. 5. 일반 행동에서도 특이한 변화를 유발하지 않았으며, 신경세포에 적용했을 때 특이한 독성 반응을 나타내지 않았다. 천궁의 메탄을 수용액 추출물은 현저한 진정 작용을 유발하며, 그 작용 기전으로서 glycine의 작용을 증가시켜 chloride ion의 세포내 유입으로 인한 억제성 신경전도를 유도한다고 사료된다. 또한 근육이완 작용도 나타나지 않았으며, 특이한 생체독성도 유발되지 않은 것으로 보아, 향후 치과임상에서 진정요법의 한 수단으로서 사용될 수 있다는 가능성을 제시한다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of exercise therapy and relaxation therapy on catecholamine and heart rate in people in white color jobs and to determine this information the effectiveness of applied exercise therapy and relaxation therapy as a nursing intervention method for stress patients. The subjects were divided into an exercise therapy group, a relaxation therapy group, and control group and the research design was a nonequivalent control group pretest-post test design(exercise therapy : n= 12, relaxation therapy : n=12, control group, the group without any treatment in exercise on relaxation therapy : n=12), The subjects in the exercise therapy group were given a particular intensity for each kp during 30min, bicycle ergometer which is using an LX PE training system before & after 4weeks of training. The exercise therapy that was used was Astrard load method which tested absolute exercise load of heart rate before & after four weeks, and resting heart rate was tested for exercise and relaxation therapy before, after four weeks, and at eight weeks. The results of each kp & absolute exercise load were calculated with the target rate formula(maximal heart rate-rest heart rate) x exercise intensity(%) + rest heart rate so the subjects could continue 60-70% exercise intensity for exercise therapy over eight weeks. The relaxation therapy subjects were trained using a modified Jacobson's relaxation technique for eight weeks. The exercise and relaxation therapy were trained at the following intensity for eight weeks(3times/week, 30min/day) to see changes in catecholamine & heart rates. After eight weeks, statistical analysis of exercise & relaxation therapy were carried out Two-way ANOVA and multiple range test(SNK : Student Newman Keul) were used. The results are as follows : 1. The change of epinephrine & norepinephrine in the exercise therapy, relaxation therapy, and control group was statistically significant at the .05 level after four weeks & eight weeks. Also, exercise therapy was statistically significant at .05 level over that of the control group after 4weeks. 2. The change of heart rate in relaxation therapy was statistically significant at the .05 level, and was statistically significant at the .05 level over that of the exercise therapy and control group. In conclusion, it is obvious that exercise therapy and relaxation therapy should be one of the most effective stress treatment and desirable nursing interventions methods for job stress in people in white color jobs.

도인술은 경락과 경혈에 자극에 의한 체조법과 호흡법을 결합하여 기혈의 순환을 활발하게 하고 사기의 배설을 촉진시키므로 근육, 건, 인대의 탄력성과 활력성을 증강하고 관절의 활액 분비와 관절 주위의 순환을 촉진하고 경락을 통해 전신을 조정해 준다.(신준식, 1995). 내$\cdot$외관적 질환, 부인과 질환을 예방하고 치료하는 운동요법 중에 요통과 견괄절 질환에 대해서만 몇 가지 행법만 소개하므로 모든 질병을 치료보다 예방적인 측면으로 건강증진, 치료목적, 근 이완, 피로 회복의 효과를 달성할 수 있다. 도인법은 확고하게 과학적으로 증명된 것은 아니지만 질병 치료와 건강 증진 목적으로 현재까지 시행하고 있으므로 한방 물리치료의 한 분야이므로 좀 더 효과적이고 발전에 많은 활용하기 위하여 제한하는 바이다.
