Abstract

Objective : This systematic review aimed to investigate the effect of focal muscle vibration in patients with post-stroke spastic hemiplegia. Methods : We searched literature published between April 2009 and October 2017 using PubMed and RISS databases. The main search terms were Vibration therapy, Focal vibration, Somatosensory, Upper limb, and Spasticity after stroke. Based on inclusion/exclusion criteria, 6 articles were selected. Results : Articles on focal muscle vibration intervention ranged from evaluation of application-only vibration to muscle vibration with task-oriented activity. Intervention effects on upper extremity spasticity and function and activities of daily living were assessed. There were significant effects on upper extremity spasticity, function, and cortical excitability. Conclusions : This study can provide information on focal muscle vibration for use by clinical therapists. However, further studies are needed to identify the optimal stimulation site and frequency/amplitude of application to maximize the effects of focal muscle vibration.

목적 : 본 연구는 국외 학술지를 대상으로 한 체계적 문헌고찰 연구를 통해 경직을 가지고 있는 뇌졸중 환자를 대상으로 진동자극의 효과를 제시하는 데에 목적이 있다. 연구방법 : 전자 데이터베이스인 NDSL과 RISS를 사용하여 2009년 4월부터 2017년 10월까지의 논문을 검색하였다. 주요 검색 용어로 'Vibration therapy', 'Focal vibration ', 'Somatosensory', 'Upper limb'와 'Spasticity after stroke를 사용하였다. 선정기준과 배제기준을 통해 최종적으로 6개의 논문이 선정하였다. 결과 : 국소 진동자극의 효과를 알아보기 위한 중재방법으로는 진동자극만을 적용한 중재부터 과제기반 진동자극 중재부터 다양하였다. 중재효과를 알아보기 위해 경직, 상지기능, 일상생활동작 평가도구가 사용되었다. 국소 진동자극은 뇌졸중 환자의 경직 감소와 상지기능에 긍정적인 영향이 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 대뇌피질의 활성화에도 유의미한 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 결론 : 본 연구를 통해 치료사들은 국소 진동자극 적용에 필요한 정보 및 근거를 찾을 수 있을 것이다. 하지만 다양한 국소 진동자극의 적용 방법으로 인해 효율적인 진동수, 진폭의 크기 및 진동을 적용할 위치를 확인하는 데에는 어려움이 있었다. 향후 국내연구에서는 국소 진동자극의 효과를 극대화 할 수 있는 체계적인 중재 프로토콜에 대한 연구가 필요하다.
