본 연구의 목적은 여러 가지 하지입식검사에 적용할 수 있는 Multi-Function Device(MFD)를 제작하여 기존에 사용하던 Weight Bearing Platforms(WBPs)들과 X 선 영상의 비교를 통해 임상 활용을 제안하고자 한다. MFD는 단상(보조기구)를 이용한 Weight Bearing Foot/Ankle, Hindfoot Alignment View 검사시 X선 장치의 X선 관구의 최하 조절 높이를 고려하여 제작하였다. 그리고 Foot/Ankle Phantom으로 MFD와 WBPs에서 Weight Bearing Lateral Foot과 Hindfoot Alignment View를 검사하여 X선 영상의 해상력을 Quick MTF(modulation transfer function)프로그램으로 비교하였다. 연구결과 MFD와 WBPs에서 검사한 두 가지 영상 모두 MTF 50(50% Contrast Spatial Frequency)과 10-90%(10-90% of Maximum Energy Rise Distance) Rise의 C/P(Cycles Per Pixel)평균과 LPH(Lines Per Image Height)평균 모두 유의한 차이는 없었다(p>0.05). 연구에서 제작한 MFD는 환자의 안전과 여러 가지 검사를 복합적으로 수행 할 수 있는 유용한 보조기구로 임상 활용을 제안한다. 또한 정책적으로 보조기구의 활용을 권장한다면 전문 업체의 활성화를 돕는 길이며 의료의 질도 더욱 향상할 수 있을 것이다.

This study used an unstable platform to change the support surface type and position of both lower limbs in order to determine changes in weight distribution and muscle including the vastus medialis, tibialis anterior, lateral hamstring, and lateral gastrocnemius of both lower limbs were evaluated during knee joint flexing and extending in a semi-squat movement in 32 hemiplegic patients. The support surface conditions applied to the lower limbs were divided into four categories: condition 1 had a stable platform for both lower limbs; condition 2 had an unstable platform for the non-hemiplegic side and a stable platform for the hemiplegic side; condition 3 had a stable platform for the non-hemiplegic side and an unstable platform for the hemiplegic side; and condition 4 had an unstable platform for both sides. The normalized EMG activity levels of muscles and weight bearing ratio of both sides in the four surface conditions were compared using repeated measures ANOVA. A significant increase was found in the weight support distribution for the hemiplegic side in flexing and extending sessions in condition 2 compared to the other conditions (p<.05). A statistically significant decrease in significant decrease in asymmetrical weight bearing in flexing and extending sessions was observed for condition 2 compared to the other conditions (p<.05). A similar significant decrease was found in differences in muscular activity for both lower limbs in condition 2 (p<.05). The muscular activity of the hemiplegic side, based on the support surface for each muscle showed a significantly greater increase in condition 2 (p<.05). An unstable platform for the non-hemiplegic side and a stable platform for the hemiplegic side therefore increased symmetry in terms of the weight support distribution rate and muscle activity of lower limbs in hemiplegic patients. The problem of postural control due to asymmetry in hemiplegic patients should be further studied with the aim of developing continuous effects of functional training based on the type and position of the support surfaces and functional improvement.

목 적: 후족부의 병리학적 상태의 치료와 평가를 위해서는 관상면에서 종골과 경골이 연관된 배열상태의 정확한 평가가 필수적이다. 이전의 방사선학적 검사인 발과 발목의 전후방향, 측방향, 사방향 촬영과 종골 축방향 촬영 등의 X-선 촬영상은 관상면에서 종골과 경골이 연관된 배열상태를 증명하지 못했다. 이에 본 연구에서는 후족부 관상면 배열영상(hindfoot coronal alignment view)을 새롭게 소개하고자 한다. 검사방법 : 1) 양쪽 발을 지탱할 수 있는 방사선투과성의 스탠드형 보조기구를 제작한다. 2) 양측 발은 weight-bearing position이 되게 한다. 3) 각각의 발의 위치는 발의 종축이 보조기구 판과 수직이 되도록 자세를 유지한다. 4) silhouette tracing: 발뒷꿈치 outline과 둘째 발가락이 일직선상으로 지나도록 위치시킨다. 5) 중심 X-선: 발바닥 쪽을 향해 약 $15{\sim}20^{\circ}의 각도로 종골의 뒷쪽을 향해 입사한다. 결 과 : 1) 경골 축과 종골의 내측, 외측 결절의 영상이 함께 표출된다. 2) 종골이 회전되지 않아야 한다. 3) 거퇴관절강(talotibial joint space)이 함께 나타나야 한다. 결 론: CT나 MRI 영상에서도 관상면에서 후족부의 배열상태를 증명할 수 있지만, 환자의 체중이 주어지지 않기 때문에 발의 임상적인 증상을 보여주기에는 충분하지 못했다. 하지만 후족부 관상면 배열영상은 후족부의 inversion, eversion의 자세변화를 보여주고, 경골 원위부와 종골의 varus, valgus deformity의 치료를 위한 평가 자료로 좋은 검사방법이며, 비교적 자연스럽고 편안한 자세로 환자에게 큰 도움을 줄 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of different types of rehabilitation training program on the kinetic and kinematic parameters during sit-to-stand movement(STS) in chronic stroke patients. Two groups of hemiparetic patients, experimental and control, participated in the study. The experimental group participated in a 10-week training program (three sessions/wk, $1{\sim}1.5\;hr/session$) consisting of a warm-up, aerobic exercises, lower extremity strengthening. and a cool-down. The control group participated in an aerobic exercise. Three dimensional kinematic analysis and force platform; were used to analyze the duration of STS, lower extremity angle, and weight bearing ability. The experimental group which had more strength of lower extremity displayed decrease in duration of STS. However, the control group showed increases in duration during sit-to-stand movement. The control group flexed their trunk more than the group did Therefore, it took more time to extend their trunk during STS. The duration in sit-to-stand was affected by the strength of lower extremity and the angle of trunk movement. The angles of ankle and knee joint had an influenced on duration of STS. The post experimental group performed with their feet near the front leg of the chair during sit-to-stand, therefore the duration was decreased. The repetitive sit-to-stand movements as a resistance exercise was effective to hemiparetic patients in learning mechanism of sit-to-stand. The control group showed decreased differences in the vertical ground reaction forces between paretic and non-paretic limbs. Their training program included strengthening exercise that may help improving weight bearing ability. The control group showed increases in the center of pressure in the anteroposterior and mediolateral displacement. This means that the stability of movement was low in the control group. Their training program which combined aerobic and strengthening exercises that are more effective to improve the stability of movement.

This study was conducted to find out the compensation strategy through kinetic gait analysis by comparing dog with congenital luxation of the shoulder joint and normal dog. Ground reaction forces were recorded for all limbs while normal poodle dog and poodle dog with shoulder joint luxation was allowed to walk on an instrumented platform. The dogs were evaluated for maximal vertical force (MVF), body load distribution (BLD), and symmetry index (SI). The MVF was increased in the contralateral forelimb of luxated shoulder joint. The SI was also increased in a dog with dislocated shoulder joints in the forelimbs. For BLD, the maximum load distribution increased centrally, but the total load distribution decreased in the ipsilateral forelimb paw. In contrast, total load distribution was increased in the contralateral forelimb paw. During forelimb lameness, changes in weight-bearing load showed compensatory load redistribution. These biomechanical changes may lead to changes in the musculoskeletal system in a dog with luxated shoulder.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of the center of pressure (COP) trajectory in healthy elderly subjects while crossing an obstacle before and after participation in Tai Chi training. Forty healthy elderly subjects participated either in a 12-week intervention of Tai Chi training or in a health education program. The participants were divided into two groups (the experimental group and the control group). Subsequently, the participants were pre- and post-tested on crossing over an obstacle from a quiet stance. Participants in the experimental group received Tai Chi training that emphasized the smooth integration of trunk rotation, a shift in weight bearing from bilateral to unilateral support and coordination and a gradual narrowing of the lower-extremity stance three times weekly. The participants in the control group attended a health education program one hour weekly and heard lectures about general information to promote health. Performance was assessed by recording the changes in the displacement of the COP in the anteroposterior (A-P) and mediolateral (M-L) directions using a force platform. Participants in the Tai Chi group significantly increased the A-P and M-L displacement of the COP after Tai Chi training (p<.05). No significant differences in the A-P and the M-L displacement of the COP between pre-testing and post-testing in the control group were found. This study has shown that participation in Tai Chi exercise increased the magnitude of the A-P and M-L displacement of the COP, thereby improving the ability of healthy elderly participation to generate momentum to initiate gait. These findings support the use of Tai Chi training as an effective fall-prevention program for the elderly.

Purpose : Chronic ankle instability can lead to problems in balance and gait due to weakness of the ankle muscles and decreased proprioceptive sensation. Balance training that stimulates proprioceptors is necessary to improve ankle stability. We aimed to compare the effects of unstable support balance exercises using whole body sonic vibration and an aero-step (TOGU) on proprioception and balance in individuals with unilateral functional ankle instability. Methods : Thirty-six participants with unilateral functional ankle instability were randomly recruited and divided into two groups (group 1 = sonic whole body vibration, group 2= TOGU). Individuals in each group participated in training for 5 weeks, 40 minutes per session, 5 times per week, and performed weight-bearing exercises in five postures on different unstable support surfaces. Proprioception was measured by digital inclinometer (Dualer IQ), and balance was measured by force platform (Biodex balance system). Results : Significant differences were observed in proprioception before and after intervention within both group (p<.05). Significant differences were also observed in the balance index before and after intervention within both groups (p<.05). Conclusion : As a result of this study, it is suggested that for individuals with ankle instability, unstable support surface training using a whole body sonic vibrator and TOGU can have a positive effects on proprioception and balance ability.
