Abstract

This study examined the effects of robot-assisted therapy on the motor and functional recovery of the lower limbs in 53 subacute stroke patients. Robot-assisted therapy was performed using Lokomat? (Hocoma AG, Zurich, Switzerland) for thirty minutes per day, five times a week for four weeks. The outcome measures used were the Fugl-Meyer assessment, Motricity index(MI), Functional ambulation category(FAC), Berg balance scale(BBS) for gait function and balance ability, 10m walking test, K-Modified Barthel Index(K-MBI) for the activities of daily living and Mini mental state examination (MMSE), and Beck's depression inventory(BDI) for depression. All patients recruited underwent these evaluations before and after the four week robot-assisted therapy. For the evaluation, the somatosensory evoked potentials were used to assess the functional recovery. Robot-assisted therapy on the lower limb after subacute stroke showed improvement in motor strength, gait function, and the activities of daily living. All changes in terms of MI, FAC, BBS, and K-MBI exhibited a statistically significant difference after the four weeks robot-assisted therapy. The somatosensory evoked potential result showed a correlation with the MI and K-MBI. Robot-assisted therapy is believed to facilitate the motor and functional recovery of the lower limb in subacute stroke patients.

본 연구는 아급성기 뇌졸중 환자에서 로봇 보조치료법이 운동능력 및 기능적인 회복에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 환자 53명이 연구에 참여하였다. 로봇보조 보행치료군은 고식적인 치료에 추가로 Lokomat$^{(R)}$ 이용하여 하루에 삼십분씩, 일주일에 5회, 4주 동안 시행하였으며, 대조군은 고식적인 치료에 추가로 하루에 삼십분씩 고식적인 치료를 시행 받았다. 모든 환자들은 임상지표의 비교를 위해, 치료 전과 4주간의 치료 후 Fugl-Meyer assessment, Motricity index, functional ambulation category, Berg balance scale, 10m 보행검사, 한국판 수정 바델지수, 한국판 간이 정신 상태검사와 벡 우울증 척도를 평가 받았다. 환자들은 기능회복과 체성 감각 유발전위 검사 결과의 관계를 알아보기 위해 유발 전위 검사를 시행하였다. 아급성기 뇌졸중 환자에서 로봇 보조 보행치료군에서 대조군에 비해 하지의 운동기능, 보행 능력, 일상생활능력의 유의한 호전이 나타났다. 체성 감각 유발 전위 검사의 결과는 임상 지표들의 관련성 분석에서 Motricity index와 한국판 수정 바델지수와 관련이 있는 것으로 나타나 아급성기 뇌졸중 환자의 기능을 예측하는데 유용할 것으로 생각된다. 로봇 보조 보행치료는 아급성기 뇌졸중 환자의 운동기능과 보행기능의 회복을 촉진하는 것으로 생각된다.
