ABSTRACT
Objective To measure the dynamic parameters of pushing manipulation with one-finger (PMOF), and provide the quantitative basis for evaluation and measurable criteria of PMOF. Methods A multi-film pressure measurement system was used to test and record the graphics of the operator when performing PMOF, and the data of corresponding parameters were recorded and analyzed. Results For PMOP, the maximum force was (11.75±0.88) N, the operation frequency was (111.7±6.98) times/ min, the cycle was (539±35.73) ms, the effective work ratio was greater than 0.28, and the waveform homogeneity was greater than 0.927. Conclusions The requirement of being permanent, forceful, homogeneity during PMOP can be objectively measured thorough graphics and quantitative indicators, but there is still a lack of quantitative indicators to measure and evaluate the requirement of being soft, deep and thorough for PMOF.
ABSTRACT
Tuinan manipulation is one of common non-surgical treatment methods for the cervical vertigo, with a good anti-vertigo effect. However, the key factor affecting efficacy of cervical vertigo is the manipulation force (including force size, time, frequency), which is lack of Objective quantification criteria. There is still not any unified statement about the mechanism of anti-vertigo effect. In this study, based on the summary of previous research work, the shortcomings of current research are analyzed, and a possible solution for manipulation quantification is suggested, and normalization, standardization as well as the mechanism of nerve centers are also investigated.
