척수손상 부위에 따른 체구성 요소 및 에너지 소비량의 차이 비교

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analysis the difference of body composition, segmental total body water and resting energy expenditure according to spinal cord injury levels. The subjects who were composed of complete quadriplegia and paraplegia patients were tested by using multifriqency and segmental bioelectrical Impedance analysis and Automatic Gas Analyzer. The results were as followings:1. Total body water(TBW), extracellular water, intracellular water, protein, muscle mass and body cell mass was lower in complete quadriplegia than paraplegia patients. There was significant difference between two groups(p<.05). However bone mineral content and % body fat was higher in complete quadriplegia than paraplegia patients and has no significant difference between groups. 2. BMI(Body Mass Index), thigh circumference was lower in complete quadriplegia than paraplegia patients and % body fat, waist circumference and WTR(Waist-thigh Ratio) parameter was higher in complete quadriplegia than paraplegia patients. However there was no significant difference between two groups. 3. segmental total body water(STBW) was lower in complete quadriplegia than paraplegia patients. Also it showed significant difference between two groups except left leg(p<.05). 4. The electrical resistance in whole body and at each body part was higher in complete quadriplegia than paraplegia patients. Also it showed difference between two groups except lower limbs. 5. Resting oxygen uptake, respriation exchange ratio, fat free mass and resting energy expenditure(REE) was lower complete quadriplegia than paraplegia patients in difference between two groups.
