어깨 보조기 디자인이 둥근 어깨 자세에 미치는 영향 = Effect of Shoulder Brace Design on Round Shoulder Posture

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Purpose: Recently, as a result of the use of smart devices, the incidence of musculoskeletal diseases in areas such as the neckand shoulders has increased. A common effect is rounded shoulder posture, which badly affects the movement and posture ofthe scapula, causing musculoskeletal disease. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the effects of three shoulder brace productson rounded shoulder posture.
Methods: A total of 12 subjects comprising men and women in their 20s with round shoulder posture participated in this study.
Three shoulder brace designs were selected, and the height change of the shoulder acromion in the lying state before and afterwearing the braces was measured. Effectiveness verification was analyzed using the Mann–Whitney U test.
Results: The results confirmed that the different shoulder brace designs had different effects on round shoulder posture.
Conclusion: Currently, numerous designs of shoulder braces are being sold, but their effects have not been verified.
In the future, more diverse designs of shoulder braces should be studied, and effective shoulder brace designs shouldbe developed and used.
