髕骨疼痛症候群復建輔助器 Tibial pain syndrome rehabilitation aid

本發明係有關於一種髕骨疼痛症候群復建輔助器,尤指一種可立即刺激緩慢運動的股內斜肌〔VMO〕或股外側肌〔VL〕動作,使股內斜肌〔VMO〕與股外側肌〔VL〕二者運動時間可以保持一致,以支撐髕骨在正常軌跡上運動,達到有效改善髕骨疼痛的髕骨疼痛症候群復建輔助器。 The invention relates to a sacral pain syndrome resuscitation aid, in particular to an intramuscular oblique muscle (VMO) or lateral femoral muscle [VL] action which can immediately stimulate slow movement, so that the internal oblique muscle (VMO) and the lateral femoral Muscle [VL] can maintain the same movement time to support the movement of the tibia on the normal trajectory, and achieve the reconstruction of the sacral pain syndrome that effectively improves the pain of the tibia.

按,膝關節主要骨骼構造包含股骨〔大腿骨〕、脛骨〔小腿骨〕以及髕骨〔膝蓋骨〕,而幫助這個關節運動的主要肌群有股內斜肌〔Vastus medialis obliquus,VMO〕與股外側肌〔Vastus lateralis,VL〕等軟組織,若圍繞在膝關節周圍的軟組織力氣不夠,或是肌肉力量失去平衡,骨骼結構也會脫離原有的運動軌跡,而造成膝蓋疼痛的症狀。 According to the main skeletal structure of the knee joint, the femur [thigh bone], the tibia [calf bone] and the tibia [knee bone], and the main muscle group that helps this joint movement has the internal oblique muscle (Vastus medialis obliquus, VMO) and the lateral femoral muscle. Soft tissues such as [Vastus lateralis, VL], if the soft tissue surrounding the knee joint is not strong enough, or the muscle strength is out of balance, the bone structure will also deviate from the original trajectory, causing symptoms of knee pain.

在股內斜肌〔VMO〕肌力不足情況下,會減少髕骨內側的支撐力,導致髕骨往外移位,對於股內斜肌肌力不足情形,以往多認為其股內斜肌可能因為萎縮或發育不良,無法產生足夠的力量以抵抗股外側肌〔VL〕及髂脛束ITB〔Iliotibial band,ITB〕將髕骨外移而產生疼痛。然,隨著臨床試驗,逐漸發現髕骨疼痛症候群〔Patellofemoral pain syndrome,PFPS〕患者在動作時,其股內斜肌相對於股外側肌收縮時間較慢或強度減少。 In the case of insufficient muscle strength in the internal oblique muscles (VMO), it will reduce the supporting force on the medial aspect of the tibia, causing the humerus to shift outward. For the lack of muscle strength of the internal oblique muscle, it has been thought that the internal oblique muscle may be atrophied or Dysplasia, unable to produce enough strength to resist the lateral femoral muscle [VL] and the bundle of ITB (Iliotibial band, ITB) to move the humerus to produce pain. However, with clinical trials, it has been gradually found that patients with Patellaofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) have a slower or lesser contraction time with respect to the lateral femoral muscle during exercise.

為了改善或增進股內斜肌的功能,現在對於髕骨疼 痛症候群〔PFPS〕患者,有使用如下數種治療方法,以訓練影響股內斜肌的收縮;其中:a.閉鎖鏈式運動[Close-chain exercises〕:它能引起股四頭肌和膝屈曲肌共同收縮,降低脛骨股骨關節的位移及關節間的壓力,增加關節穩定性;b.等長收縮運動〔Isometric exercises〕:以等長收縮方式做髖部內收〔hip adduction〕動作,促進股內斜肌收縮,維持股四頭肌的平衡;c.等速肌力運動:能增加整個膝關節周圍肌群的肌力與肌耐力並增加本體感覺,增加膝關節穩定性而減少壓力,進而使疼痛減低。 In order to improve or enhance the function of the internal oblique muscle, now for the sacral pain In patients with pain syndrome (PFPS), there are several treatments that use training to affect the contraction of the internal oblique muscles; among them: a. Close-chain exercises: it can cause quadriceps and knee flexion Muscle contraction, reduce the displacement of the patellofemoral joint and the pressure between the joints, increase joint stability; b. Isometric exercises: Hip adduction action in isometric contraction, promote the femoral The oblique muscle contractes to maintain the balance of the quadriceps muscle; c. Isokinetic muscle exercise: can increase the muscle strength and muscular endurance of the muscles around the entire knee joint and increase the proprioception, increase the stability of the knee joint and reduce the pressure, thereby enabling The pain is reduced.

然,上述方法在訓練股內斜肌收縮的效果上,或有作用不夠直接直接,或有療效不夠顯著,或有施做困難等缺失,另也有於施做過程中會造成患者血壓升高的情形,亦有在器材設備上過於昂貴,無法適用各個階層民眾使用的弊失。 However, the above method has the effect of training the internal oblique muscle contraction, or the effect is not direct or direct, or the effect is not significant, or there are difficulties in the operation, and the blood pressure of the patient is increased during the application process. In other cases, it is too expensive in equipment and equipment, and it cannot be applied to the disadvantages of people at all levels.

Here, when the patient with the sacral pain syndrome (PFPS) is regularly treated by the doctor, the doctor can be used by the microprocessor (32). The computer communication port (34) is connected to transmit the data stored in the microprocessor (32) to the connected computer, or to the memory card input/output connected to the microprocessor (32). (35) The memory card is removed to be plugged into the computer. Thus, the doctor can read the patient's internal oblique muscle (VMO) and lateral femoral muscle [VL] movement status recorded by the microprocessor (32). Each piece of information for diagnosis, and then decide whether to increase or decrease the intensity of the shock stimulus and the time of the shock stimulus.
