Outline of Final Research Achievements

A major challage at the monmentaly for postpartum women after caesarean section is to prevent deep vein thrombosis and induce lower lim edema for women's QOL.The purpose of study is to identify higher operating -effectiveness of the ankle joint planter & dorsal flexion exercise.Six healthy women(reproductive generation 20's) volunteers paticipated in this study. They were asked to perform ankle joint planter & dorsal flexion exercise at a peace of once per second, 20 times. They perfomed the angle of 20 and 30 exercise.The change in blood flow in hte gastrocnemius muscle were evaluated by using a laser tissue blood oxygen monitor(OMEGAMONITOR BOM-L1 TRW).As a result, The level of Deoxy-Hb increased significantly during exercise compared with that during rest.We can also see that the decrease was more significant at an angle of 30 exercise.
The result suggest that the ankle exercise at an angle of 30 improved blood flow.
