Abstract

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease, primarily affecting the elderly, and is classified into primary OA (with no specific cause) and secondary OA (caused by other diseases or conditions). Although it cannot be cured, appropriate management can control the symptoms and prevent disease progression. This study aims to assess the perception and knowledge of hip and knee OA patients in Jambi City using the Osteoarthritis Knowledge Scale (OAKS) instrument. Data were obtained from 87 patients at Kambang General Hospital: 54 filled out the Knee OAKS and 33 for Hip OAKS. The results showed that patients' understanding of general knowledge about OA was high (84%), but knowledge related to prevention was significantly lower (44%). Knowledge regarding treatment and symptom management was moderate (68.2%), and understanding of healthy lifestyle behaviors was 53%. These findings indicate a significant gap in patient knowledge, particularly regarding preventive measures and lifestyle modifications. Therefore, targeted educational interventions are crucial to improve patient understanding, enhance self-management, and ultimately achieve better clinical outcomes in managing OA.

Abstract

Low back pain is a common degenerative illness among the elderly, significantly impacting their quality of life and independence. Insufficient understanding of effective management frequently worsens the disease. The objective of this community service program was to enhance comprehension of low back pain among elderly and their caregivers at the Olak Kemang Public Health Centre in Jambi City. The programme consisted of an instructional session with 41 participants utilising a multidisciplinary-developed interactive visual module, accompanied by a practical demonstration of stretching exercises. A pre- and post-test design was used to quantitatively evaluate the alteration in participants' knowledge. The data were examined with the Wilcoxon and Pearson chi-square tests. The findings indicated a statistically significant enhancement in participants' knowledge, with the median score increasing from 60 (range: 30-80) in the pre-test to 85 (range: 50-100) in the post-test (p < 0.001). The number of participants who attained a passing score (≥70%) rose considerably from 19 to 31 (p = 0.007). The interactive visual education program effectively enhances awareness regarding lowback pain among the elderly and their caregivers. This strategy is highly recommended for implementation in other community health programs. Keywords: Low back pain; caregiver; health education; elderly
