Abstract

The purpose of this study is to help prevent chronic diseases of the elderly and improve their quality of life by investigating the effects of high concentration oxygen water intake with wearable walking exercise on knee joint ROM and pain variables in elderly women with chronic arthritis. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, 33 elderly women at D located in C city, Chungcheongnam-do, were selected at random and allocated 11 elderly women each for the High concentration oxygen water+wearable walking exercise group(WHEG), wearable walking exercise group(WEG), control group(CG) and measured knee joint motions and pain variables before and after the experiment. The data obtained from this study were analyzed using the SPSS 20.0 statistical program and two-way repeated ANOVA was used. The conclusions obtained through this study are as follows. First, as a result of analyzing the change of knee joint ROM according to high concentration oxygen intake during wearable walking exercise, WHEG was significantly improved compared to WEG and CG, and WEG was significantly improved compared to CG. Second, as a result of analyzing the change of pain variable according to high concentration oxygen intake during wearable walking exercise, WHEG was significantly improved compared to EG and CG, and EG was significantly improved compared to CG.
