Abstract

Forward head posture refers to the anatomical alignment of the head positioned anteriorly to the shoulders. An imbalance in the muscles of the cervical region characterizes this disorder. This phenomenon can be attributed to multiple variables, one of which pertains to the length of the work period. This investigation seeks to establish the relationship between working duration and forward head posture. This research method uses a cross-sectional analytic observational study design that was carried out from February to March 2023 in Gianyar. The study employed a sample size of 60 individuals, selected by the utilisation of a basic random sampling methodology. The CVA measurement uses the MB Ruler, and the duration of work is measured with a self-report questionnaire. Data analysis in this study used the SPSS version 24 application with bivariate tests using Chi Square and Spearman's rank tests. The findings of this study revealed a statistically significant association between work duration and forward head posture, as indicated by a p-value of 0.012 (p < 0.05). The findings of this study indicate a statistically significant correlation between the duration of employment and the occurrence of forward head posture.

Abstract

Osteoarthritis (OA) merupakan salah satu gangguan muskuloskeletal yang paling sering dijumpai, terutama pada populasi usia lanjut, ditandai dengan kerusakan struktural sendi dan penurunan fungsi fisik. Terdapat latihan blood flow restriction yang dapat digunakan sebagai alternatif latihan dengan pendekatan latihan beban rendah yang tetap memberikan efek terhadap adaptasi otot. Metode yang digunakan dalam studi ini yaitu review literature yang mencakup proses pencarian dan analisis berbagai referensi yang relevan dengan topik melalui basis data. Berdasarkan studi sebelumnya, pemberian latihan blood flow restriction dapat memberikan adaptasi fisiologis pada peningkatan kekuatan dan massa otot, aktivasi serat otot tipe II, peningkat hormon anabolik, serta perbaikan fungsi sendi dan penurunan nyeri sehingga latihan blood flow restriction metode intervensi yang efektif dan aman bagi individu dengan knee osteoarthritis (OA), terutama pada populasi lanjut usia.

Abstract

Background: Musculoskeletal disorders are among the health problems increasingly observed across various age groups. One of the commonly encountered conditions is forward head posture (FHP). This condition has the potential to cause postural deviations, functional limitations, and musculoskeletal pain. Exercise therapy is a widely used approach to address FHP. Specifically, Scapular Stabilization Exercise (SSE) is a training method that can improve postural alignment and reduce associated symptoms. This literature review aims to analyze the effects of SSE on individuals with FHP based on findings from relevant research studies. Methods: This article was developed using a literature review methodology, which involved searching and examining various sources related to the topic obtained through databases such as Google Scholar, PEDro, and PubMed. A total of five articles were reviewed for this study. Results: Based on previous research, SSE can be an effective exercise therapy option for individuals with FHP. Conclusion: Scapular Stabilization Exercise (SSE) has proven effective as an exercise therapy approach for FHP. This intervention is known to increase Cervical Vertebral Angle (CVA), and reduce pain and disability in the short term.

Abstract

Forward Head Posture (FHP), also known as "text neck," has become an increasingly prevalent postural issue among school-aged children due to the non-ergonomic use of electronic devices. This condition, characterized by an abnormal forward projection of the head, places chronic stress on the cervical spine, leading to various complaints such as neck pain, headaches, and reduced respiratory function. In response, a community outreach program was implemented to optimize postural awareness and promote healthy gadget usage habits. The intervention employed an educational and participatory methodology, including interactive sessions, demonstrations of correct posture, and hands-on practice of stretching exercises to alleviate muscle tension. The program's success was quantitatively evaluated by comparing pre-test and post-test results to assess the students' level of knowledge and awareness. The findings revealed a significant improvement, with student comprehension scores increasing dramatically following the intervention. While a majority of students initially demonstrated a low understanding of ergonomic principles, a substantial increase in knowledge was observed post-program. This outcome confirms that an educational approach combined with practical application is highly effective in instilling the awareness and skills necessary for FHP prevention, underscoring the importance of early intervention for the musculoskeletal health of the digital generation.
