摘要

器械辅助软组织动员(IASTM)技术使用专门的手持器械对人体施加可控的机械力,以达到促进愈合、改善活动范围和减轻疼痛的目的。然而,达到临床效果的最佳作用力范围尚未确定。推进 IASTM 力优化研究的一个障碍是缺乏可量化治疗力的商用仪器。本研究旨在评估将柔性力传感器安装到市售 IASTM 仪器上以获得有效力测量值的可行性。在模拟治疗过程中,通过比较柔性力传感器和测力板之间的数据,评估了这种新方法的有效性。类内相关系数、线性回归模型和布兰德-阿尔特曼图均表明,当仪器在 45°、65° 和 90°治疗角度下使用时,测力板和柔性传感器之间的一致性极佳。当仪器保持 30° 时,测量值之间的一致性降低。因此,附带传感器的市售仪器可以使力的测量更加方便可行,适用于更广泛的研究环境,促进 IASTM 研究的发展,最终为临床决策提供信息,改善患者护理。

Implementing A Flexible Sensor to Identify Forces during Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization
Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) techniques use specialized hand-held instruments for applying controlled mechanical forces to the body with the goal of facilitating healing, improving range of motion, and reducing pain. Nevertheless, an optimal range of forces for achieving clinical outcomes has yet to be established. A barrier to advancing research on IASTM force optimization is the lack of commercially available instruments that quantify treatment forces. The aim of the current study was to assess the feasibility of attaching a flexible force sensor to a commercially available IASTM instrument to obtain valid force measurements. The validity of this novel approach was assessed by comparing data between the flexible force sensor and a force plate during a simulated treatment. Intraclass correlation coefficients, linear regression models, and Bland Altman plots all indicated excellent agreement between the force plate and flexible sensor when the instrument was used at 45°, 65°, and 90° treatment angles. Agreement between measures decreased when the instrument was held at 30°. Thus, commercially available instruments with attached sensors could make force measurement more accessible and feasible for a wider range of research settings, facilitating the advancement of IASTM research and ultimately informing clinical decision-making to improve patient care.
