Abstract

Rheumatism is a condition marked by joint inflammation, swelling, and pain, often causing limitations in daily activities and decreasing productivity. Prolonged symptoms, especially over 10 years, may lead to joint damage, making patients reliant on others and impacting their social and economic functioning. This study aims to examine the effect of rheumatic exercises on pain levels among rheumatic patients in the Kalijudan Public Health Center area, Surabaya. The research employed a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design involving 31 participants selected through purposive sampling. Rheumatic exercises were the independent variable, while pain levels were the dependent variable, measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). The data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test with a significance level set at p<0.05. The results showed a Wilcoxon test value of 0.000, indicating a statistically significant difference in pain levels before and after the intervention. These findings demonstrate that rheumatic exercises effectively reduce pain in rheumatic patients. The study concludes that implementing rheumatic exercise programs can be a beneficial non-pharmacological intervention to manage pain in patients with rheumatism, particularly in community health settings like the Kalijudan Public Health Center.

Abstract

Dysmenorrhea is a common menstrual pain complaint experienced by adolescent girls and can interfere with learning activities and overall quality of life. The management of dysmenorrhea encompasses not only pharmacological interventions but also non-pharmacological strategies, which are regarded as safer alternatives with minimal adverse effects. Among such approaches, physical therapy including abdominal stretching and effleurage massage has garnered attention. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of abdominal stretching and effleurage massage in alleviating dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls. The research design employed was a pre-experimental method utilizing a two-group pretest-posttest framework, consisting of two intervention groups without a control group. A total of 32 female students from Muhammadiyah 10 Senior High School Surabaya who experienced dysmenorrhea were selected using purposive sampling. The results showed a significant decrease in pain scale before and after the intervention in both groups. The group receiving effleurage massage showed a faster reduction in pain intensity compared to the abdominal stretching group. The average pain scale after treatment decreased significantly in both groups. Respondents reported feelings of relaxation and comfort after the intervention. No side effects were found during or after the therapy. Effleurage massage yielded more effective results in a shorter time. In conclusion, abdominal stretching and effleurage massage are effective in reducing dysmenorrhea in adolescent girls. These therapies can serve as safe and practical non-pharmacological treatment alternatives. This study is expected to be a reference for healthcare professionals and educators in providing education and holistic management of menstrual pain in adolescents.

Abstract

The increasing prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) among adolescents represents a significant public health challenge, largely driven by lifestyle factors and insufficient awareness of preventive measures during early life stages. Despite existing health education efforts, traditional media such as leaflets often fail to effectively engage this population, limiting their impact on knowledge and behavioral change. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of animation book-based health education compared to conventional leaflet methods in enhancing knowledge and attitudes toward diabetes mellitus prevention among adolescents at Muhammadiyah 1 Junior High School, Sidoarjo, Indonesia. Utilizing a quasi-experimental design with non-equivalent control groups, 64 ninth-grade students were allocated evenly into an intervention group receiving animation book education and a control group receiving leaflet-based education. Pretest and posttest assessments were conducted using structured questionnaires to measure changes in knowledge and attitudes. Statistical analysis applying paired and independent t-tests revealed a significant improvement in both knowledge and positive attitudes in the intervention group compared to the control group (p = 0.001). Notably, the animation book group demonstrated a substantial increase in knowledge scores, with the percentage of students exhibiting “good” knowledge rising from 40.6% to 93.8%, while the control group showed only marginal gains. Attitudinal improvements followed a similar pattern, indicating that the animation book medium facilitates more effective cognitive and affective engagement. These findings suggest that animation book-based education serves as a superior and innovative pedagogical tool for school-based health promotion aimed at early diabetes prevention. Integration of such interactive media can enhance adolescent health literacy and support preventive behaviors, ultimately reducing the future burden of non-communicable diseases.
