Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of active movement with skin mobilization on range of motion, pain, and rating of perceived exertion in patients diagnosed with axillary web syndrome after axillary lymph node dissection. Design: A Case report Methods: It was performed on 7 patients diagnosed with axillary web syndrome after lymph node dissection. The subjects experienced a decrease in the range of joint motion and pain in movement when raising their arms in their daily lives, and complained of discomfort. The active range of motion, numeric rating scale, and modified Borg scale of shoulder joint flexion were measured, and the differences after active movement with skin mobilization were compared. Results: All subjects increased by 24.9 degree on average in active range of motion after active movement with skin mobilization intervention. There was no pain in the maximum range of joint motion measured before intervention, and rating of perceived exertion was significantly reduced. Conclusions: Active movement with skin mobilization can be a very useful way to help improve and treat axillary web syndrome, and it is recommended for improving the function and quality of life of axillary web syndrome patients. and It is also believed that it can be used steadily at home through the education of patients and families.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the manual workload in repetitive wrist and finger motion. To evaluate manual workload, angular displacement of the joint, EMG of the muscle and subjective rating were studied. Both wrist motion and finger motion were studied. A screw-driving task was used for the wrist motion experiment. A keyboard typing task was used for the finger motion experiment. All finger joint angles and wrist angles were measured by an angle-measuring glove($CyberGlove^{TM}$, Virtual Technologies, Inc.). Surface EMG was recorded from FCU muscle and FDS muscle simultaneously with the angle measurement. Subjective ratings of exertion were also recorded using the modified Borg's CR-10 scale. Repetition rates of 0.5, 1, 2 motions per second were used with each task. As a result, manual workload increased with increasing repetitiveness. Peak spectral magnitude and frequency components corresponded closely with joint angular displacement amplitudes and repetition rates. Results of the correlation analysis showed that there were significant correlation among EMG, frequency-weighted motion and subjective measurement. Both EMG and frequency-weighted filtering showed consistent workload estimation with increasing task frequency. Subjective ratings showed slight over-estimation of the workload as the task frequency is increased.

Purpose: This study was to investigate the effects of respiratory rehabilitation training on the respiratory functions of hospitalized cervical spinal cord injury patients. Methods: One group pre and post test design was used. Subjects were 20 cervical spinal cord injury inpatients of the national rehabilitation center. Training program consisted of air cumulation training, manual assisted coughing training, and abdominal breathing. Trained rehabilitation nurse implemented 20 minutes program twice a day for 4 weeks. Respiratory function was measured as peak coughing flow rate, and perceived respiratory difficulty after activity on wheel chair for 30 minutes and during speaking and singing. Perceived respiratory difficulty was measured with modified Borg scale. Also content analysis was done with the result of open ended question about subjective feeling about training. All variables were measured 3 times before, 2weeks and 4 weeks after the program. Results: Peak coughing flow rate significantly improved after compared to before training. Also all three perceived respiratory difficulty variables decreased significantly after training. In the content analysis, 'it's easier to cough up phlegm' was the most frequent answered subjective feeling. 'Sound at speaking and coughing became louder', 'respiratory volume increased', and 'comfortable chest feeling' were frequent answered subjective feeling, in order. Conclusion: Although it is preliminary since no control group, respiratory rehabilitation training was found to be effective to improve respiratory function in terms of peak coughing flow rate, perceived respiratory difficulty, and subjective feeling. It is necessary further systemic research to investigate the effects of respiratory rehabilitation training.

배 경: 만성폐쇄성폐질환의 여러 가지 호흡재활프로그램 중에서 자기효능감을 증진시키는 것이 호흡재활치료에 효과적이라는 국외 보고는 있으나 국내에서는 연구가 시도되지 않았다. 저자들은 만성폐쇄성폐질환자에서 자기효능감증진 호흡재활프로그램의 효과를 알아보기 위하여 이 연구를 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 대상은 호흡기내과 외래에서 진료 받는 만성폐쇄성폐질환자 중 GOLD분류에 의한 II,III 병기 환자로 하였으며, 치료군 18명, 대조군 18명으로 선정, 비교하였다. 연구는 무작위할당 대조군 전-후연구로 이루어졌다. 저자들이 개발한 자기효능감증진 호흡재활프로그램을 8주 동안 실시하였으며 치료군은 실시 전, 4주, 8주째는 1:1의 교육과 상담이 이루어졌고 전화상담은 매주 1~2회 이루어졌다. 교육과 상담으로 대리경험, 성취경험 등이 이루어지도록 하였고 매일 가정에서 운동훈련과 이완요법을 수행하도록 하여 성취경험과 정서적 이완이 이루어지도록 하였다. 대조군은 프로그램 실시 전에 1:1의 교육과 상담만 제공하였다. 평가는 자기효능감, 평소 호흡곤란, 운동유발호흡곤란, 운동내구성은 6분 걷기 거리로, 폐기능, 삶의 질 등을 양 군에서 측정 비교하였다. 결 과: 자기효능감증진 호흡재활프로그램은 대조군보다 치료군에서 유의하게 자기효능감이 향상되었다. 평상 시 호흡곤란, 운동 시 호흡곤란, 6분 걷기 거리도 치료군에서 유의하게 향상되었다. 그러나 폐기능은 유의한 차이가 없었다. 자기효능감증진 호흡재활프로그램은 치료군에서 삶의 질도 유의하게 향상되었다.. 결 론: 만성폐쇄성폐질환자에서 자기효능감증진 호흡재활프로그램은 자기효능감, 운동내구성, 삶의 질을 증가시키고 운동유발 호흡곤란 정도를 감소시키는 효과가 있었으며, 자기효능감증진 호흡재활프로그램은 만성폐쇄성폐질환자의 호흡재활치료로 효과적으로 활용될 수 있겠다.

Background: We present a case of asthma-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease syndrome (ACOS), which has features of both asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, in a 63-year-old man treated with Korean medicine. Methods: For four weeks of hospitalization, the patient received acupuncture, Guarujisil-tang decoction, and herbal steam therapy. The main symptoms of ACOS, which are dyspnea, chest discomfort, and throat discomfort, were treated with acupuncture. Guarujisil-tang decoction and herbal steam therapy were administered to relieve cough and smooth the expectoration of mucus. Results: By the end of hospitalization, no significant change was observed in lung function. However, the patient's subjective symptoms, including dyspnea, chest discomfort, sore throat, and sweating, were improved. The patient's objective sign of opaque yellow mucus changed to clear mucus after the treatment. His scores for the quality of life questionnaire for adult Korean asthmatics and the modified Borg scale also showed improvement from 42 to 62 and from 3 to 1, respectively. Conclusions: Although we reported only one ACOS case, this study is significant in that case reports of ACOS treated with Korean medicine are rare. Further study is needed to confirm the effectiveness of Korean medicine in patients with ACOS.

연구배경: 호흡곤란은 심폐질환 환자의 가장 흔한 증상이며 호흡 장애 결과로 인한 운동 능력저하는 일상 생활을 불가능하게 한다.(daily disability) 운동시 산소 소모량은 운동 능력 평가의 기능적 척도이며 심폐기능 정도를 반영하는 가장 좋은 지표로 얄려져왔다. 그러나 운동 부하 검사는 장비가 비싸고 복잡하며 증상이 심하거나 노령층의 환자에는 수행에 많은 제약점이 따른다. 반면 걷기검사는 일상 생할과 비슷한 운동량으로 실시하여 특별한 장비가 필요없고 재현성이 높은 좋은 방법으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 호흡 곤란을 호소하는 환자에서 걷기검사를 시행하여 동맥혈검사 및 폐기능 검사, Modified Borg Scale(MBS), 최대 산소 흡수율(maximal oxygen uptake; 이하 VO2max) 간의 상관 관계 및 6분과 12분 걷기검사간의 상관 관계를 알아보고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방법: 호흡곤란을 주소로 내원한 37 명의 환자를 대상으로 COPD, 심혈관질환, 기관지 천식, 운동시 호흡곤란을 호소하였으나 정상 소견을 보인 네 군으로 분류하여 각각의 환자에서 안정 상태에서 폐기능 검사와 동맥혈 가스 분석을 실시하였다. 안정 시 MBS를 이용하여 호흡곤란 지수를 기록하고, 걷기검사를 실시하였다. 증상 제한적 최대 운용 검사(Symptorn-limited maximal exercise)는 자전거 타기 검사로 시행하였다. 결과: (1) 전체 환자에서 VO2max 은 COPD 및 심혈 관질환에서 다른 두군에 비해 유의하게 낮았으며 (p<0.05), 걷기검사 역시 현저히 낮았다. (2) 전체 환자에서 12분 걷기 검사는 VO2max, PaCO2, FVC(% predicted), FEV 1 (% predicted)과 상관관계가 있었으며, COPD 환자군에서는 걷기검사와 VO2max간에만 상관 관계가 있었다. (3) COPD 환자군에서 VO2max와 FEV1, FVC간의 상관관계가 가장 컸고, VO2 max와 걷기검사간에 유의한 상관관계가 있었으나 걷기검사와 FEV1 FVC간에는 상관관계가 없었다. (4) 6분 걷기검사와 12분 걷기검사는 매우 유의한 상관관계가 있었다(r=0.92, p<0.01). 결론: 걷기검사는 심폐기능을 반영하는 운동능력 평가의 간단한 방법으로 VO2max의 간접적인 지표로 유용하였으나 최대 운동 능력과는 다른 개념인 'daily disability'를 평가할 수 있는 방법이다. 또한 6분 걷기검사는 12분 걷기검사보다 환자의 부담은 줄이면서 심폐질환자의 폐기능 및 운동 기능 평가에 비슷한 결과를 보였다.
