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.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to testify effects of Balance Taping Therapy on the pain and range of motion of the knee joint in the female elderly with degenerative knee arthritis. Method: The research design was one group pretest-posttest design. The data were collected from November 15 to December 25, 2004. The subjects were 23 female elderly with degenerative knee arthritis who were registered at one public health center in Busan. Balance Taping Therapy was conducted twice a week for 5 weeks. The data were analyzed such as the number, percentage, paired t-test, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test using SPSS 10.0 WIN Program. Result: The pain in the female elderly with degenerative knee arthritis significantly decreased from 8.82 to 6.04 after Balance Taping Therapy(t=16.781, p=0.001). The knee flexion joint range of motion in the female elderly with degenerative knee arthritis significantly increased from 119.73 to 123.13 after Balance Taping Therapy (t=-6.003, p=0.001). The knee extention joint range of motion statistically significantly increased from 112.74 to 117.83 after Balance Taping Therapy(t=-8.940, p=0.001). Conclusion: Balance Taping Therapy proved an effective nursing intervention in decreasing pain and increasing the range of motion of the knee joint in the female elderly with degenerative knee arthritis.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of balance taping procedures on lower back pain. Method: This study is nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design of quasi-experimental study. From May in 2004 to July in 2004, the research was done for females who have lower back pain in Gyeonggi province. Experimental group was 37, and control group was 36. The degree of lower back pain and that of the pain on activity of daily living(ADL) were each measured two times. Result: In the experimental group, the lower back pain score before taping was 6.38, that of 1 hour after the taping applied was 3.27. The lower back pain score of experimental group was significant statistically decreased and that of control group was almost not changed. Moreover, the pain score on ADL was statistically decreased in experimental group. Therefore balance taping is effective to reduce lower back pain and to improve ability of ADL. Conclusion: This study supports that balance taping may benefit individuals with lower back pain and balance taping therapy can be used as an independent nursing intervention. However, a larger study is in need to provide definite evidence and to determine long-term effects.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of balancing taping therapy on reducing headache in patients with angina pectoris undergoing nitrate IV therapy. Methods: A non-equivalent control group non-synchronized design was used. A total of 50 patients with angina pectoris undergoing nitrate therapy at G hospital participated in the study. For measuring pain intensity, the Visual Analogy Scale (VAS) and Non-Verbal Pain Behavior Scale were used. Data were analyzed using SPSS 19.0 program. Results: No significant differences were observed between the experimental and control groups in pain intensity. However, the number of times of analgesics of experimental group was significantly lower than those of control group. Conclusion: Balance taping can be effective in pain for patients undergoing nitrate IV therapy. Therefore, utilizing the balance taping can be useful method to reduce headache in patients with angina pectoris during the IV therapy of nitrate.

The purpose of this study is to examine whether whole-body balance taping therapy could contribute to take balance of all of the body and to decrease the pain. Data were collected from 20 people who received the treatments of physical therapy in one welfare center of Daegu city for four weeks from 6. Jan. 2003 to 7. Feb. 2003. A simple questionnaire and VAS for evaluation of a pain degree was used. And the Biomyth 7 was used to measure the whole-body balance and the sample exercise protocol for KAT 2000, which is a balance training device tool, was also used as an evaluation tool. The result of the study showed that balance level of human body was improved after receiving the whole-body balance taping therapy. Total, Right Left, Front, Back score of the balance level before the therapy was 1033.6, 656.1, 377.6, 639.9, 394.5 respectively. However, the scores of them after the therapy was decreased to 432.0(p<0.01), 293.2(p<0.01), 142.3, 287.7(p<0.05), 143.9(p<0.05) respectively. And the degree of pain before the therapy in the Back and Knee was 6.1, 6.7 respectively. However, the degree of the pain after the therapy was decreased to 3.1(p<0.01), 3.1(p<0.01) respectively. Further studies using case - control groups are required because this study only deal with the before-after test for the same group.
