Abstract

Background: Smartphone with all of its benefits make the majority of its users become too attached with the device that can fulfil their various needs. Due to its accessibility, an increase of daily screen time has also been observed which may have negative impacts on health, one of them being De Quervain’s Syndrome. De Quervain’s Syndrome is a type of Repetitive Strain Injury, affecting the thumb and wrist caused by a repetitious activity that puts burden or trauma to the aforementioned body parts. Objective: To assess the correlation between duration of screen time and method of handling smartphone towards the incidence of De Quervain’s Syndrome among the medical students of Diponegoro University. Methods: This research used an analytical-observational approach with a cross-sectional design. The subjects were 113 students from the Faculty of Medicine, Diponegoro University that were obtained using consecutive sampling method. The correlation between duration of screen time and method of handling smartphone with the incidence of De Quervain’s Syndrome were performed using Spearman’s test. Results: A weak significant correlation was observed between the average duration of screen time towards the incidence of DQS pain on the right hand based on the DQST results (p=0.11), but no significant correlation was found between the same variables on the left hand (p=0,082). There is no significant correlation between the method of handling smartphones with the incidence DQS pain based on the DQST results, both on the right (p=0.93) and left (p=0.167) hands. Conclusion: Average duration of screen time was weakly correlated with the incidence DQS pain in the right hand, but no correlation was found in the left hand, based on DQST results, among the students from the Faculty of Medicine, Diponegoro University. No correlation was observed between the method of handling smartphones and the incidence of DQS among the students from the Faculty of Medicine, Diponegoro University.

Abstract

BACKGROUND : Metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints range of motion (RoM) exercise can be done using either conventional exercise or robotic finger therapy. This study aimed to compare MCP joints RoM improvement between conventional exercise and robotic finger therapy exercise in post-stroke patients. METHOD : This study was a randomized controlled trial pre and post test controlled group design. The data were taken from individuals aged 45-65 years with a history of stroke undergoing medical rehabilitation at the Diponegoro National Hospital before and after intervention (robotic finger therapy exercise vs conventional exercise) for 6 weeks. MCP joints RoM was measured using goniometer before and after the intervention. Datas were analysed using SPSS ver 20.0. Normality of data distribution would be assessed using the Shapiro-Wilk test. Differences in the RoM of MCP joints before and after treatment in each group were tested using paired t-test. Group differences were tested using unpaired t-test. RESULT :  There was significant RoM improvement in each MCP joint in each group before and after the treatment (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in RoM improvement between groups (p>0.05). CONCLUSION : Both robotic and conventional therapy significantly improve MCP joints RoM in post-stroke patients. There was no significant difference in MCP joints RoM improvements between robotic finger therapy and conventional exercise.

Abstract

Introduction: Good health condition of Hajj pilgrims candidate will support the optimal performance of worship and decrease morbidity. One of the important health parameters is cardiorespiratory fitness. Exercise is important for improving cardiorespiratory fitness. The level of participation and implementation of structured training activities among Hajj pilgrims candidate is still lacking. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of additional lower extremity strengthening exercises on the cardiorespiratory fitness of prospective Hajj pilgrims who received walking aerobic training. Method: The research was conducted in Salatiga City in February-March 2023. The research design was a randomized control trial, the subjects were 36 Hajj pilgrims candidate, divided into treatment group (n=18) and control group (n=18). The treatment group was given lower extremity strengthening exercise 2x/week intensity 40-50% 1-RM, 2-4 set, 20 repetition and walking aerobic exercise 30 minutes 5x/week and the control group performed walking aerobic exercise 30 minutes 5x/week. Training was carried out for 6 weeks. Measurement of cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2max) with a 6 minute walk test before and after intervention. Result: There was a statistically significant difference in the mean pre- and post-intervention VO2max values at the treatment group (19.53 ± 4.76; p=0.0002) and the control group (18.36 ± 3.38; p=0.000). The increase of the mean difference/delta VO2max between groups was higher at the treatment group than the control group (4.16 ± 2.03 vs 2.87 ± 1.89; p = 0.031). Conclusion: The addition of lower extremity strengthening exercises to walking aerobics can increase cardiorespiratory fitness higher in hajj pilgrims candidate compared to walking aerobics alone.

Abstract

Introduction: Cardiorespiratory fitness declines with age. Regular exercise helps enhance an elderly person’s physical capacity, fitness, and overall quality of life. Senam lansia is physical activity that is frequently performed by the elderly population. Though hatha yoga has slower movements than exercise for the elderly, it still incorporates various exercise component. This study was aimed to assess the difference between hatha yoga exercise and senam lansia on cardiorespiratory fitness of the elderly.Methods: This study was a randomized controlled pre- and post-test. The hatha yoga group and the control group were randomly selected with a total of 26 participants. For six weeks, three times a week, participants in the intervention group and control group performed hatha yoga and senam lansia, respectively. The six-minute walk test is used to measure maximum oxygen consumption (VO2 max), a measure of cardiorespiratory fitness.Result: The mean VO2max value was 15.03 ± 2.63 ml/kg/minute in the hatha yoga group and 13.82 ± 2.05 ml/kg/minute in the senam lansia group with significant differences between groups. The increase in VO2 max values before and after the intervention was 1.83 ± 1.15 ml/kg/minute in the hatha yoga group and 1.35 ± 1.04 ml/kg/minute in the senam lansia group with no significant difference between the two groups.Conclusion: Hatha yoga exercises and senam lansia have the similar effect on increasing cardiorespiratory fitness as measured by the 6-minute walk test.
