PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of task oriented circuit exercise(TOCE) on the balance and cognition in mild dementia patients. METHODS: The subjects of the study were 30 patients with mild dementia and assigned to the TOCE(task oriented circuit exercise) group(n=15) and aerobic exercise(AE) group(n=15). TOCE group performed six task three times weekly for 12 weeks. AE group underwent the cycle ergometer and treadmill exercise three times a week during the experimental period respectively. Timed up and go test(TUG), Berg balance scale(BBS) and AP1153 Biorescue were used to assess the parameters for the balance. Korean-mini mental state examination and Global deterioration scale(GDS) were used to assess the parameters for the cognition. For the statistical analysis, paired t-test and independent t-test were used to compare the differences among two groups. RESULTS: Each group showed improvement in balance and possibility for improving cognitive function. TOCE group especially, there were significant improvements in limit of stability. CONCLUSION: The results of the study suggest that TOCE is a more diverse exercise programs introduced in the study. Furthermore, TOCE can be a helpful to improve the balance and cognition in mild dementia patients.

본 연구는 순환식 과제지향 운동이 만성 뇌졸중 환자의 상지기능과 자기효능감에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 실시하였다. 선정 기준에 부합하는 28명을 순환식 과제지향 운동을 시행한 실험군 14명과 일반적 과제지향 운동을 시행한 대조군 14명으로 무작위 배정하였다. 중재는 주 5회 30분씩 4주간 실시하였으며 중재 전 후 상지기능과 자기효능감을 비교 분석하기 위해 뇌졸중 기능 회복 평가와 자기효능감 척도를 평가하였다. 순환식 과제지향 운동군은 중재 후 상지기능의 어깨/팔꿈치/아래팔, 손, 협응력과 속도 항목에서 유의하게 향상되었으며, 자기효능감 척도에서 유의하게 향상되었다. 그러나 일반적 과제지향 운동군은 중재 후 상지기능의 어깨/팔꿈치/아래팔 항목에서만 유의하게 향상되었다. 순환식 과제지향 운동군과 일반적 과제지향 운동군을 비교한 결과 상지기능의 어깨/팔꿈치/아래팔, 손 항목에서 그룹 간의 유의한 차이가 있었다. 그러나 자기효능감 척도에서는 그룹 간의 유의한 차이가 없었다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 순환식 과제지향 운동이 일반적 과제지향 운동보다 상지기능을 증진시킨 것을 알 수 있다.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of circuit class training on the performance of locomotor tasks in chronic stroke. Methods : The study included 45 patients with chronic stroke randomly divided into experimetal group and control group. Both groups participated in exercise classes three times a week for 8weeks. The experimental group had 10 workstation of circuit class designed to improve walking. The control group practiced fitness exercises by equipment in health center. Walking performance was assessed by measuring walking speed(timed 10-meter walk and TUG), GAITRite analysis and peak vertical ground reaction force through the affected foot during walking. Results : The experimental group demonstrated significant improvement(p<.05) compared with the control group in 10-meter walking and vertical ground reaction force after training. The experimental group showed significant improvements in the walking velocity and cadence by GAITRite system(p<.05). Conclusion : Task- oriented circuit class training leads to improvements in locomotor function in chronic stroke. Further studies are necessary to occur in usual environments to improve walking performance.
