Research Abstract

In this study, (1) we make a test fresh warm water as control on a condition (temperature, CO_2 concentrations) to effect the peripheral circulation promotion in the lower limbs by the highly-concentrative artificial CO_2 bath, (2) after that, make a test on improvement of the pain in lower extremities by the highly-concentrative artificial CO_2 bath. We finally evaluated the quality of life for pain in lower extremities improvement by the highly-concentrative effervescent bath in a nursing facility and the home and attempted by the placement as the health work based on the evidence of the care prevention. As a result of having investigated it in the nursing facility residents who included a person with a symptom, the skin temperature increased in approximately a bath with the both groups, but was not able to find the significant difference between groups. We were able to find that "a general healthy feeling" of SF -8 tended to be high in stimulation group in the long term of 1.5 months. Unfortunately there were few persons who had the lower limbs algetic symptom that an agreement, cooperation was obtained, and an effect for the pain did not have an evaluation and, however, decreased in approximately a bath in individuals in both carbonated water bath group, fresh water bath group. The skin of dorsum of foot bloodstream change was more significantly higher level after a bath than controls. Even elderly people can expect their symptoms better due to the vasodilatation by the highly-concentrative artificial CO_2 bath.
