Background: Trigger finger is a condition when the finger feels stiff when bent or stretched. This condition occurs because the protective layer surrounding the tendons becomes inflamed in the tendons or tissue connecting bones and muscles, causing a painful sensation when the sufferer bends or straightens the fingers. Trigger finger can also cause the finger to feel painful and stiff so that it cannot be moved. Objective: This research is aimed at sufferers of Trigger Finger conditions to reduce pain. Research Method: Case study with a sample size of 1 person suffering from Trigger Finger. Ultrasound intervention and application of Neuromuscular Taping 3 times a week for 2 weeks. This research was conducted at RSI Ibnu Sina Pekanbaru in January – March 2024. The pain measurement tool used the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The research design was pre and post test, namely comparing VAS scores before and after the intervention. Results: after 6 treatments for 2 weeks with 3 treatments a week. In the reduce pain results before = 2.5 (mild pain) and after = 1.75 (mild pain); tenderness before = 7.5 (severe pain) and after 4.5 (moderate pain); movement pain before = 6 (severe pain) and after = 3.5 (mild pain). Conclusion: Ultrasound intervention and Neuromuscular Taping are conservative interventions in Trigger Finger treatment that can reduce pain.

THE EFFECT OF NEUROMUSCULAR TAPING ON CORE STABILITY EXERCISE ON PAIN SENSATION IN CASES OF MYOGENIC LOW BACK PAIN

Achmad Banu Mustofa — 2024-08-30

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the disparity in the impact of neuromuscular taping versus core stability exercise on pain perception in individuals with myogenic low back pain. Method: This study employed a quantitative technique utilising a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was utilised to quantify pain. 22 samples were chosen using purposive sampling based on preset criteria. Results: of the hypothesis I and II testing, conducted using the related t-test, yielded a P-value of 0.000. Additionally, the hypothesis III testing, performed using the independent t-test, resulted in a P-value of 0.001. The average decrease in pain perception in group I was 35.09, while in group II it was 42.27. Conclusion: Utilising neuromuscular tapping in core stability exercise yields superior results in reducing pain sensation in individuals with myogenic low back pain compared to core stability exercise alone.

DIFFERENCES IN THE EFFECTS OF NECK EXERCISE AND MCKENZIE EXERCISE ON PAIN IN CASES OF NECK PAIN DUE TO COMPUTER ACTIVITIES

Objective: To determine the difference in the effect of neck exercise and McKenzie exercise on pain in cases of neck pain due to activity with a computer. Methods: This research is experiment quantitative with a comparative study of two different groups that are correlated with each other with pretest and posttest groups. The total sample was 22 active students of the regular class of physiotherapy faculty of Esa Unggul University class of 2019-2022 obtained by purposive sampling, then divided into two groups by the odd-even randomization-allocation method. Pretest and posttest data were measured by numeratic rating scale (NRS). Results: Normality test using Shapiro Wilk test obtained normal and abnormal distributed data. Homogeneity test using Levene's test obtained homogeneous data. The results of hypothesis testing I and II using t-test related, obtained the results of p <0.001 which means the p value is significant, which means that neck exercise and McKenzie exercise are effective in reducing pain in neck pain cases due to activities with computers. In the hypothesis III test using the Mann-Whitney test, the results obtained p=0.466 which means the p value is not significant, which means there is no significant difference between neck exercise and McKenzie exercise in reducing pain in cases of neck pain due to activity with a computer. Conclusion: Neck exercise is effective in reducing pain in cases of neck pain due to computer activities. McKenzie exercise is effective in reducing pain in cases of neck pain due to computer activities. There is no difference between neck exercise and McKenzie exercise in reducing pain in cases of neck pain due to computer activities.

EFEK PENAMBAHAN FOOT CORE STABILITY EXERCISE PADA INTERVENSI CORE STABILITY EXERCISE DALAM PENINGKATAN POSTURAL CONTROL PASIEN PASCASTROKE

Sondang Samosir — 2024-08-30

Objective: to analyze the improvement of postural control of post-stroke patients due to the addition of foot core stability to core stability exercise. Method: the implementation of this study is a type of "randomized controlled trial experimental" to analyze the inequality of the "addition of foot core stability intervention new bobath concept to a core stability exercise intervention in improving postural control of post- stroke patients". The sample consists of 20 patients and will be divided into two groups, namely treatment group I providing core stability exercise training, and treatment group II providing additional foot core stability exercise to core stability exercise intervention. Results: based on the results of the normality test by implementing the Shapiro-Wilk test method and from the results of Levene's test method homogeneity test obtained research data that is normally distributed and homogeneous. Then from the results of hypothesis testing with the Paired T-test method in treatment group I, the p-value is 0.36, which means "increased postural control is free from the influence of core stability exercise" while the test results in treatment group II obtained a p-value of 0.001, which means "increased postural control is influenced by the addition of foot core stability to core stability exercise". In addition, a p-value of 0.845 was also obtained from the results of the Independent T-test, which means "there was an inequality of functional pain reduction in treatment groups I and II". Conclusion: there is an increase in postural control which is influenced by the addition of foot core stability to core stability exercise.

HUBUNGAN SIKAP BELAJAR ONLINE TERHADAP DISABILITAS LOW BACK PAIN MYOGENIK DI SMA NEGERI 5 KAB. TANGERANG

Uga Cahyani — 2024-08-30

Objective: To determine the relationship between online learning attitudes and the level of myogenic low back pain disability in SMA Negeri 5 Kab. Tangerang. Methods: This research is a correlative analytical research using a cross-sectional design. The total sample was 32 people with an age range of 16-18 years, namely students from SMA Negeri 5 Kab. Tangerang. Online Learning Attitude data was measured using the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA). In contrast, the results of measuring the level of myogenic low back pain disability were measured using the Modified Oswestry Disability Index (MODI). Result: Hypothesis testing with Chi-Square produces a p-value of 0.540 (p>α (0.05)). The average and standard deviation of online learning attitudes using the Rapid Entire Body Assessment measurement is 4.72 ± 1.250, and the level of myogenic low back pain disability using the Modified Oswestry Disability Index measurement is 19.44 ± 10.922 for students at SMA Negeri 5 Kab. Tangerang. Conclusion: There is no relationship between online learning attitudes and the level of myogenic low back pain disability in SMA Negeri 5 Kab. Tangerang.
