Abstract
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact on rat knee joints of extracorporeal shock wave therapy after experimentally induced intracerebral hemorrhage. [Subjects and Methods] Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into an experimental group that received extracorporeal shock wave therapy after central nervous system injury (n=10) and a control group that did not receive any therapeutic intervention after central nervous system injury (n=10). The Dartfish program was used to evaluate the SD rats’ locomotion. [Results] There was a significant difference between the control group and the experimental group in the change of knee joint angle during midstance after the intervention. [Conclusion] In conclusion, at extracorporeal shock wave therapy for central nervous system injury was confirmed to be effective at reducing knee joint angle, confirming it is a good physical therapy intervention, based on its efficacy.
