国民医療費の増大するなか予防医学への期待が大きくなっています。予防医学は多岐にわたるが身体運動を対象者に賦活し「ロコモーティブシンドローム」「サルコペニア」「フレイル」などの運動器に関係する疾患を予防・改善することは予防医学の重大な課題です。近年、加圧や電気刺激、振動を身体運動中の身体に課すことでこれまで運動成果が現れないと言われてきた低強度短時間運動でも筋力増加や筋肥大がみられるとする報告が多くあります。これらのうち身体各分節、特に四肢と体幹の接合部(腋下、鼠径部)ベルトで加圧し血流制限(BFR:Blood Flow Restriction)状況下で筋力トレーニングをすると低強度短時間で筋機能や形態が改善するとした「加圧トレーニング」が著名です。
河鰭一彦・人間福祉学部教授は、本研究で、加圧トレーニングで用いられたBFRから導かれるRIC(Regional&Remote Ischemic conditioning)を新しい機器を用いて被験者に賦活し、3回行われた激運動に関する運動成果について検証し得られた知見を報告しています。
Expectations for preventive medicine are increasing as national medical expenses increase. While preventive medicine covers a wide range of fields, the prevention and improvement of motor system-related diseases and conditions such as “locomotive syndrome,” “sarcopenia” and “frailty” by stimulating physical exercise in patients is an important issue. Recent years have seen many reports of increased muscle strength and muscle hypertrophy by subjecting the body to stimuli such as pressurization, electrical stimulation, or vibration, even with short-duration low-intensity training, a method that has so far been said to have little effect in terms of physical enhancement. Among these, “Kaatsu training” is well known as a method that has been said to improve muscle function and morphology through short-duration low-intensity muscle training with the blood flow restricted (BDR: Blood Flow Restriction) by a pressurizing belt fastened around articulations in the body, particularly the joints between the limbs and trunk of the body (armpit and groin regions). This study reports on knowledge acquired through verification of the results of vigorous exercise performed three times with the test subject stimulated by RIC (Regional and Remote Ischemic Conditioning) using a new device, a method based on BFR used in Kaatsu training.
