ABSTRACT Chest wall mobility decreases with age in community-dwelling women aged 65 years or older. Thermotherapy is used to improve soft-tissue extensibility. However, its effects on chest wall mobility are unclear. This study aimed to examine the effect of thermotherapy on chest wall mobility in healthy elderly women. Twenty-eight elderly women participated in this study. Chest wall mobility at three levels (axillary, xiphoid, and tenth rib), respiratory function (forced vital capacity and forced expiratory volume), and tissue temperature (skin temperature (ST)) and deep temperature (DT) with 10 mm and 20 mm depth from the skin (10 mm DT and 20 mm DT)) were measured before and after 15 minutes of thermotherapy. The subjects randomly received one of the three interventions (capacitive and resistive electric transfer (CRet), hot pack (HP), and sham CRet (sham)). Chest wall mobility at all levels significantly increased after CRet intervention. Hot pack significantly increased tenth rib excursion; it also significantly increased ST, 10 mm DT, and 20 mm DT, whereas CRet significantly increased 10 mm DT and 20 mm DT. There were significant differences between CRet, HP, and sham in ST, 10 mm DT, and 20 mm DT. Furthermore, 20 mm DT had increased more in CRet than in HP. CRet improved chest wall mobility at all levels and HP improved at the tenth rib level. This implies that CRet can be one of the approaches to improve chest wall mobility.

深度热疗对健康老年女性胸壁活动度的影响

摘要 65 岁或以上的社区女性的胸壁活动度随着年龄的增长而降低。热疗用于改善软组织的可延展性。然而,其对胸壁活动度的影响尚不清楚。本研究旨在检查热疗对健康老年女性胸壁活动度的影响。二十八名老年妇女参加了这项研究。三个水平(腋窝、剑突和第十肋骨)的胸壁活动度、呼吸功能(用力肺活量和用力呼气量)以及组织温度(皮肤温度 (ST))和深部温度 (DT),10 毫米和 20 毫米在热疗 15 分钟之前和之后测量皮肤深度(10 毫米 DT 和 20 毫米 DT))。受试者随机接受三种干预措施中的一种(电容和电阻电转移(CRet)、热敷(HP)、和假 CRet(假))。CRet 干预后,所有水平的胸壁活动度都显着增加。热敷显着增加第十肋的偏移;它还显着增加了 ST、10 mm DT 和 20 mm DT,而 CRet 显着增加了 10 mm DT 和 20 mm DT。在 ST、10 mm DT 和 20 mm DT 中,CRet、HP 和假手术之间存在显着差异。此外,CRet 中的 20 mm DT 比 HP 中增加的更多。Cret 改善了所有级别的胸壁活动度,并在第十肋骨级别提高了 HP。这意味着 CRet 可以成为改善胸壁活动度的方法之一。而 CRet 显着增加了 10 mm DT 和 20 mm DT。在 ST、10 mm DT 和 20 mm DT 中,CRet、HP 和假手术之间存在显着差异。此外,CRet 中的 20 mm DT 比 HP 中增加的更多。Cret 改善了所有级别的胸壁活动度,并在第十肋骨级别提高了 HP。这意味着 CRet 可以成为改善胸壁活动度的方法之一。而 CRet 显着增加了 10 mm DT 和 20 mm DT。在 ST、10 mm DT 和 20 mm DT 中,CRet、HP 和假手术之间存在显着差异。此外,CRet 中的 20 mm DT 比 HP 中增加的更多。Cret 改善了所有级别的胸壁活动度,并在第十肋骨级别提高了 HP。这意味着 CRet 可以成为改善胸壁活动度的方法之一。
