Abstract

Objectives : The aim of this study is to compare the improvement of Low back pain (LBP) depending on male Inpatient’s Brachlalankle Pulse Wave Velocity (baPWV),
Method : We evaluated 35 LBP inpatients who took pulse wave velocity test during admission at Jaseng hospital from November 2008 to september 2009. We used applanation tonometry method to measure pulse wave velocity and numerical rating scale to measure patient’s improvement.
Result : At admission, standard deviation of normal group’s NRS was and high risk group’s was (P=0.678). After 5 days of admission, standard deviation of normal group’s NRS was and high risk group’s was (P=0.680). After 10 days of admission, standard deviation of normal group’s NRS was and high risk group’s was (P=0.281). After 15 days of admission, standard deviation of normal group’s NRS was and high risk group’s was (P=0.124). At discharge, standard deviation of normal group’s NRS was and high risk group’s was (P=0.504). Comparison between admission and discharge, standard deviation of normal group’s NRS was and high risk group’s was (P=0.504)
Conclusion : Low back patients with high Brachialankle Pulse Wave Velocity, showed slower improvement rate compare to patients within normal rate. But statically, had no significance.
