Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a method and system for providing a gait rehabilitation service using rhythm auditory stimulation (RAS)

The present invention relates to a method and system for providing a gait rehabilitation service using rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS). More particularly, the present invention relates to a method and system for providing a gait rehabilitation service through rhythmic auditory stimulation To a method and system for providing services.

In the 1990s, the University of Colorado began to study rhythmic auditory stimulation (RSA) based on neurological theory that constant, regular rhythms and repetitive auditory stimuli unconsciously promote motor function. Theoretical and clinical studies on rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS) are underway at numerous research institutes both in Korea and abroad. Rhythmic hearing in improving walking ability of patients with stroke, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson's, Huntington's chorea, cerebral palsy, It has been proven that stimulation (RAS) has a great effect. In other words, auditory stimulation using rhythmic hearing stimulation (RAS) was suggested to those who had difficulty walking due to brain damage, and it was confirmed that the auditory stimulation was transmitted directly to the spinal cord, resulting in immediate body movement.

The characteristics of Parkinson's gait are the following: Narrow stride and heading, Uncontrollable gait speed, Walking only on a cog, Walking, It is difficult to start the first step of walking, The freezing phenomenon that increases or decreases in number and stops, and the stiffness of the muscles due to flexion of the torso and the rigidity of the muscles. Such a Parkinsonian gait abnormality can directly stimulate the black matter of the brain when the auditory stimulation of a certain rhythm is given, thereby affecting immediate walking. In particular, patients with the highest expected effect on rhythmic hearing stimulation (RAS) theory have been identified as Parkinsonian gait abnormalities, and many studies have been conducted steadily at home and abroad.

Various products have been developed according to these studies. Conventional products can not be analyzed unless they are large-sized devices equipped with gait analysis function. In case of hospital products, there are disadvantages of time and space limitations. There is a problem that it is difficult to purchase or can not be used continuously.

In addition, since conventional products are mainly used only during training for walking rehabilitation, there is a disadvantage in that it can not prevent accidents such as falling due to problems such as walking freezing which may occur in daily life of a person with Parkinson's Walk.
