Effects of half-body and foot baths on peripheral circulation in healthy adult males: a pilot study

Takahashi Yusuke, Okura Kazuki, Kaga Midori, Yoshioka Masato

Ｊ　Ｐｈｙｓ　Ｔｈｅｒ　Ｓｃｉ ( 理学療法科学学会 )  34 ( 10 ) 652 - 656   2022.10  [Refereed]

<p> [Purpose] This study aimed to clarify the optimal conditions of warm-water bathing required to improve peripheral circulation. [Participants and Methods] Ten healthy males experienced three warm-water bathing depths (half-body, low-leg, and foot) on different days. Peripheral circulation (earlobe blood flow), tympanic temperature, pulse rate, and blood pressure were measured during each session and compared among the bathing conditions. [Results] In half-body bathing, the relative blood flow of participants increased steeply to a level 2.7-fold higher than the baseline during bathing and rapidly decreased after that. Conversely, the relative blood flow gradually and continuously increased to a level 1.7-fold higher than that at the baseline during low-leg bathing and maintained a similar level after that. The blood flow did not markedly change throughout the experiment in foot bathing. The pulse rate during foot bathing and that during low-leg bathing did not change throughout the observation period, but that of half-body bathing increased considerably. [Conclusion] Rapid changes in pulse rate or blood pressure associated with bathing are considered risky. We suggest that low-leg bathing, rather than the usually adopted half-body bathing, is appropriate for improving peripheral circulation in terms of effectiveness and safety.</p>

Kobayashi Mao, Kaga Midori, Andoh Hideaki

The Journal of Japan Academy of Diabetes Education and Nursing ( Japan Academy of Diabetes Education and Nursing )  25 ( 1 ) 93 - 102   2021.06  [Refereed]

Research paper (journal)   Domestic Co-author

<p>The purpose of this study was to analysis the role of the Nurses who are Certified Diabetes Educator of Japan (CDEJN), and a questionnaire was administered to 481 CDEJNs at 81 institutions who responded that they could cooperate with the study, and 199 responded to the questionnaire (41.4% response rate). The results of exploratory factor analysis revealed that the CDEJNs play six roles and behaviors: guidance for diabetic patients, guidance for complications and complication prevention, cooperation and collaboration in the diabetes guidance team, support for diabetes activities in the community, support for multidisciplinary guidance for diabetes care, reflection on diabetes nursing practice. Factor correlation coefficients ranged from 0.249 to 0.714, and Cronbach' s alpha coefficient for each factor was 0.939 for the entire CDEJN role behavior, and 0.822 to 0.915 within each factor. This study' s results suggest that more experience as a CDEJN is associated with more role behavior as a CDEJN.</p>
