Plastic bronchitis is a rare disease characterized by marked airway obstruction, via the formation of large gelatinous or rigid cast. In Korea, there were few case reports with plastic not in adults, but children. So we report an adult who was diagnosed as eosinophilic casts, no history atopic and cardiac disease.

A total 60 chronic stroke patients were divided into mirror treatment (MT-EF) Group, MT group, CON group. Each group min a day five times week for eight weeks. MT-FE 30 weeks in therapy process EMG-FES. process. conservative treatment. To measure ability, Biorescue (COP, LOS), Berg scale (BBS) FRT, test by 10 m walk test. revealed...

BACKGROUND:This report presents the case of a 58-year-old man with right hemiplegia who improved his gait and lower limb motor function following virtual reality (VR)-based physical therapy. The use augmented or VR-based technology is being increasingly used to support therapy in patients deficits improve gait, can be small hospitals outpatient departments. CASE REPORT:A was diagnosed left due traumatic brain injury (TBI). He received 20 minutes real-time feedback training 30 general...

We investigated the phenomenon of limb-specific locomotor adaptation in order to adjudicate between sensory-cue-conflict theory and motor-adaptation theory. The results were consistent with cue-conflict demonstrating that two different leg-specific hopping aftereffects are modulated by presence conflicting estimates self-motion from visual nonvisual sources. Experiment 1 shows increases forward drift during attempts hop place on one leg while blindfolded vary according relationship...

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to examine the effects visual restriction and unstable base dual-task training (VUDT), (VDT), (UDT) on balance attention chronic stroke patients. [Subjects Methods] subjects were 38 patients, who divided into two groups 13 patients each one group 12 They given for 30 minutes per session, three times a week, eight weeks. Their measured using center pressure (COP) migration distances, functional reach test (FRT), Berg scale (BBS), with Trail Making Tests...

Abstract Objective We investigated the effect of upper limb sensory stimulation and virtual reality rehabilitation (SMVR) on extremity active joint angle, function cognitive ability in chronic stroke patients. Methods A total 30 patients were randomly divided into SMVR group CON group. was performed 60 min three times a week for 8 weeks robot rehabilitation. conservative treatment peripheral movement min. The measured by Jebsen-Taylor hand test (JTT) Stroop (ST) Trail making (TMT). Results...

[Purpose] The purpose of the present study was to examine effects ankle joint muscle strengthening and proprioceptive exercises accompanied by functional electrical stimulation on stroke patients' balance ability. [Methods] For six weeks beginning in April 2015, 22 patients receiving physical therapy at K Hospital located Gyeonggi-do were divided into a (FES), exercise group (FPS group) 11 an FES stretching (FS patients. conducted for 30 min per day, five days week weeks. Balance ability...

Objective: We investigated the effects of maitland thoracic joint mobilization and lumbar stabilization exercise on diaphragm thickness respiratory function in patients with a history COVID-19. Methods: Thirty who had passed one month after COVID-19 onset were randomly divided into combined breathing groups; each group performed exercises ergometer exercises, respectively, for 50 min, three times week, eight weeks. used MYSONO U5 MicroQuark to evaluate (forced vital capacity, forced...

BACKGROUND: Trunk control ability is an important component of functional independence after the onset stroke. Recently, it has been reported that robot-assisted training effective for stroke patients. However, most studies on have conducted upper and lower extremities. OBJECTIVE: The purpose this study was to evaluate effects trunk postural balance in METHODS: Forty participants with hemiparetic were recruited randomly divided into two groups: RT (robot-assisted training) group (n= 20) 20)....

In the present study, effects of visual restriction and unstable base dual-task training (VUDT), stable (SDT), on stroke patients’ balance concentration abilities were examined.

Abstract Objective We investigated the effects of eye movement with PNF neck on trunk stability and standing position balance ability chronic stroke patients. Methods A total 30 patients were randomly divided into EMPN group CON group. was performed 60 min three times a week for 8 weeks in movement. conservative treatment 60min. The measured by Trunk impairment scale (TIS) test Center Pressure (COP), Limited Stability (LOS), Berg Balance Scale (BBS) Functional Reach Test (FRT). Results There...

Abstract This study was performed to evaluate the effects of Mirror therapy combined with EMG-triggered Functional Electrical Stimulation on upper extremity function in patient Chronic Stroke. A total 24 chronic stroke patients were divided into 3 groups. Group I (n=8) given traditional physical (TPT), group II (n=7) and mirror (MT), III (n=9) conjunction (EMGFES-MT). Each one hour a day 5 times week for 6 weeks. We obtained following result between before after treatments about changes...

BACKGROUND: Numerous studies have investigated factors for trunk, balance stability and gait parameters of post-stroke patients. Evidence-based recommendations are required the treatment ankle proprioceptive exercise with thermal stimulation in OBJECTIVE: We effects on trunk stability, balance, ability METHODS: A total 30 patients were randomly divided into training group (APT) control group. The APT performed exercises 60 min five times a week eight weeks. followed conservative Trunk was...

Abstract Objective We investigated the effects of Kinesio Taping with Laser Therapy (KTLT) on Pain threshold, Blood flow, and Balance ability patients Knee Osteoarthritis. Methods A total 32 were randomly divided into KTLT Control (CON) group. group was performed 30 min three times a week for four weeks in low-level laser therapy (LLLT) treatment process Taping. CON sham LLLT taping. To measure oppressive pain Commander Algometer measurement blood flow rate skin surface, noninvasive...

The Korea National Park Service will create a national park ecoculture education platform to actively respond travel trends and revitalize leisure culture, including marine sports. This study analyzed the relationship between platforms visit characteristics using cross-analysis correspondence analysis establish appropriate differentiated operational plans for future platforms. Cross-analysis showed significant path information acquisition, preferred time, stay purpose of visit. According...
