Popis: 〔目的〕本研究は,脳血管障害片麻痺患者における6分間歩行距離と麻痺側・非麻痺側膝伸展筋力,下肢Brunnstrom stage,深部感覚障害の有無,麻痺側・非麻痺側下肢荷重率の関連について検討を行った。〔対象〕脳血管障害片麻痺患者55名で,調査時平均年齢65.1歳,発症からの平均期間98.7日であった。〔方法〕6分間歩行距離と上記項目の関連についてStepwise重回帰分析を用い分析した。〔結果〕6分間歩行距離には,調査項目の中でも麻痺側下肢荷重率が強く6分間歩行距離に関連した。6分間歩行距離300 m以上では,36例中34例が麻痺側下肢荷重率80%以上,500 m以上では9例全てが麻痺側下肢荷重率 90%以上であった。〔結語〕6分間歩行距離には,麻痺側下肢荷重率が強く関連することが示唆された。
[Purpose]For 55 cerebrovascular hemiplegic patients, muscle strength of both of the affected and non-affected limbs, Brunnstrom stage of lower limbs, deep sensation, and the weight-bearing rate on both of the affected and non-affected limbs were studied for correlation with the 6-minute walk distance. [Subjects] The average age of the patients was 65.1 years, the average time from the onset of stroke was 98.7 days. [Methods] The correlations between the 6-minute walk distance and the above variants were analyzed with stepwise multiple regression analysis. [Results] The weight bearing rate on the affected limb correlated significantly with the 6-minute walk distance. Thirty-four out of the 36 patients with more than 80% weight-bearing rate on the affected limb achieved a 6-minute walk distance of more than 300 m, and all of the patients who had more than 90% weight-bearing rate on the affected limb achieved a 6-minute walking distance of more than 500 m. [Conclusion] We concluded that the weight-bearing rate on the affected limb correlated most significantly with the 6-minute walk distance.
