슬개동통증후군 환자의 재활운동 참여가 하지의 복합기능 향상에 미치는 효과

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of complex functional improvement for lower extremity to rehabilitation exercise in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). A total of 28 female participated in the cross-sectional study. We measured balance ability, gait pattern, and isokinetic muscular functional test of the knee joint included peak torque of flexor and extensor about before and after gradual exercise program. For this study, the subjects were performed for 80 minutes per day and 2-times a week during 8-weeks, and paired t-test was performed at the 0.05 level of significance. The measurement of balance ability and gait pattern results did not showed a statistically significant about before and after gradual exercise program. Nevertheless, after exercise showed a steady gait and balance more stable pattern. The measurement of isokinetic muscular function of knee joint results showed a statistically significant angular velocity at the strength of 60°/sec and endurance of 90°/sec about before and after gradual exercise program. Depending on rehabilitation had a positive impact on pain reduction and functional improvement could examine the effects of rehabilitation.
