Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of cervical stretching program on neck pain, fatigue and range of motion caused by overuse of smartphone. Methods: We treated stretching program to measure the pain, fatigue, and range of motion of the neck before and after cervical stretching program for experiment group (n=25), control group(n=27) nursing college students using the smartphone. The general characteristics of the subjects and the range of neck pain, fatigue, and cervical range of motion were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results of the cervical stretching program for neck pain, fatigue, and range of motion of the neck were analyzed using independent t-test. Results: After cervical stretching program, the pain of the neck(t=2.86, p=.006), fatigue(t=5.44, p<.001). flexion(t=-2.10, p=.041), extension(t=-2.84, p=.006), right lateral flexion(t=-2.4, p=.047), left lateral flexion(t=-2.05, p=0.46) and right rotation(t=-4.48, p<.001), left rotation(t=-3.38, p=.001) range of rotation were improved. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that a cervical stretching program can be used as an effective intervention for health problems in musculoskeletal disorders due to smartphone overuse.

본 연구의 목적은 경부스트레칭프로그램이 스마트폰을 과다 사용으로 발생하는 경부통증, 피로, 관절운동범위에 미치는 효과를 평가하기 위함이다. 스마트폰을 과다 사용하는 간호대학생 실험군(n=25), 대조군(n=27)을 대상으로 경부스트레칭프로그램 적용 전 후 경부통증, 피로, 관절운동범위의 정도를 측정하였다. 대상자의 일반적인 특성과 경부통증, 피로, 관절운동범위는 기술통계와 추론통계를 사용하여 분석하였다. 경부통증, 피로, 관절운동범위에 대한 경부스트레칭프로그램의 효과는 독립 t 검정으로 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 대상자에게 경부스트레칭프로그램 적용 후 경부통증(t=2.86, p=.006), 피로(t=5.44, p<.001). 굴곡((t=-2.10, p=.041), 신전(t=-2.84, p=.006), 오른쪽 측방굴곡(t=-2.4, p=.047) 왼쪽 측방의 굴곡(t=-2.05, p=0.46)) 및 오른쪽 회전 범위(t=-4.48, p<.001), 왼쪽 회전범위(t=-3.38, p=.001)가 개선되었다. 이 연구의 결과는 경부스트레칭프로그램이 스마트폰 사용에 따른 근골격계 장애에 건강 문제에 대한 효과적인 중재로 사용될 수 있다는 것을 보여준다.
