[Purpose] This study examines the effects of the flexion-distraction technique and the drop technique on disorders and on Ferguson's angle in female patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation. [Subjects and Methods] Thirty female patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation were divided into an experimental group (n=15) treated with flexion-distraction and drop techniques and a control group (n=15) treated with spinal decompression therapy. Both groups were treated three times a week over an eight-week period. [Results] In the comparison of changes within each group after treatment, both groups showed statistically significant decreases in disorders and in Ferguson's angle. [Conclusion] Flexion-distraction and drop techniques may be an effective intervention to improve disorders and Ferguson's angle in female patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation.
[目的] 本研究探讨屈伸牵引技术和斜扳技术对女性腰椎间盘突出症患者病情及 Ferguson 角的影响。[对象与方法] 将 30 例女性腰椎间盘突出症患者分为实验组(n = 15),采用屈伸牵引和斜扳技术治疗;对照组(n = 15),采用脊柱减压疗法治疗。两组均每周治疗 3 次,为期 8 周。[结果] 在比较每组治疗后的变化时,两组的病情和 Ferguson 角均有统计学意义的下降。[结论] 屈伸牵引和斜扳技术可能是改善女性腰椎间盘突出症患者病情和 Ferguson 角的有效干预措施。
