摘要

Purpose: This study was to determine the effect of fun swimming games (FSG) on forced vital capacity (FVC) and peak flow rate (PFR). Methods: Sixty healthy children aged 5-6 were randomly assigned to the FSG group or the control group, with 30 subjects in each. Takei FVC machine and Mini Wright peak flow meter were applied for measurement of FVC and PFR, respectively. FSG group received one-hour water play and swimming instruction, once weekly, for 12 consecutive weeks while the control group did not. Results: No significant initial pre-test difference was found in age, height, weight, body mass index (BMI), FVC, or PFR between groups. After three months of FSG intervention, in the FSG group, the FVC and PFR were significantly increased (0.74 ± 0.22 to 0.83 ± 0.24 L, p ＜ .05 and 122.30 ± 34.48 L/min to 129.83 ± 32.04 L/min, p ＜ .05). However, the control group FVC and PFR reminded unchanged (p ＞ .05). Conclusion: The research showed that one hour FSG for children improved respiratory parameters (FVC and PFR) when the exercise was done once a week one hour each session for three months.

目的：在觀察趣味的戲水游泳對於孩童肺活量與最大呼氣流速的效果。方法：總共60個5～6歲的健康孩童隨機分派在戲水游泳組與對照組，每組各30人。肺活量與最大呼氣流速分別以竹井（Takei）肺活量計與迷你賴特（Wright）流量計加以測量。戲水游泳組每週接受一小時的水上遊戲與游泳教學，連續12週，對照組則不做類似教學活動。結果：兩組間年齡、身高、體重、身體質量指數、肺活量與最大呼氣流速前測值皆沒有顯著差異。三個月的戲水游泳介入，戲水游泳組的肺活量與最大呼氣流速顯著的增加（分別由0.74±0.22增至0.83±0.24L，p＜.05與由122.30±34.48增至129.83±32.04L／min，p＜.05）。對照組的肺活量與最大呼氣流速沒有顯著變化（p＞.05）。結論：本研究顯示為期12週每週1次每次1小時的戲水游泳顯著增加孩童肺活量與最大呼氣流速等呼吸測量參數。
