Abstract

Background : One of the most common Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSD) in dentists is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). The work of dentists with repetitive flexion and extension movements of the radiocarpal articulation can increase the risk of CTS. Patients with CTS most often experience numbness, tingling, and pain along the distribution of the median nerve, which can interfere with work. Objective : This study aims to determine the factors that influence the occurrence of carpal tunnel syndrome in dentists. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This study is an analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design. It included 144 dentists in Samarinda City as samples. Results : The results of the study showed that 46 (31.9%) dentists experienced CTS complaints, and 98 (68.1%) dentists did not experience CTS complaints. The bivariate analysis showed that factors related to the risk of CTS (p <0.05) were Age, Nutritional Status, Repetitive Movements, Length of Work, and Length of Service. At the same time, factors unrelated to the risk of CTS were Gender. However, in the results of the logistic regression analysis, there were only three risk factors for CTS, namely Repetitive Movement Factor (p = 0.011; OR = 4.44), Length of Work (p = 0.017; OR = 3.137), and Length of Service (p = 0.048; OR = 8.465). Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Risk factors associated with CTS are Repetitive Movement, Length of Work, and Length of Service. Risk factors not associated with CTS are Age and Nutritional Status.

Abstract

Objectives: This research aims to evaluate some aspects of the knowledge level in dental medicine students at Mulawarman University regarding the use of lateral cephalometric radiography in orthodontic treatment. Materials and Methods: This research uses a quantitative methodology with a descriptive cross-sectional approach conducted at the medical faculty of the Mulawarman University dentistry study program located in Samarinda Ulu District. The research sample was taken by a total sampling method and consisted of 90 Mulawarman University dentistry students. Research data were obtained through primary data collection in the form of questionnaires that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: The results showed that more respondents had a good level of knowledge, with as many as 41 students (45.56%). The class of 2022 dental students had a more dominant level of good knowledge, with as many as 13 students (68.42%) of the total class of 2022 students, and the class of 2021 dental students also had a good level of knowledge, with as many as 13 students (59.09%) of the total class of 2021. The results also show that the factor of high interest in learning is owned by the class of 2022, as many as 18 students (94.74%), and high interest also affects knowledge, so that with high interest, you can get a good level of knowledge (97.56%). In addition, the factor of how to study by non-cramming learning method is dominantly owned by the class of 2022, as many as 15 students (78.95%), and the factor of how to study can affect one's knowledge, so that by learning not overnight, the speed system can get a good level of knowledge (78.05%). Conclusion: In general, dental medicine students are knowledgeable about lateral cephalometric radiography. This level of knowledge is good, and in this study, the results showed that the class of 2022 most dominantly exhibited a non-cramming method and a high level of learning interest.

Abstract

Essential hypertension is a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, especially in the elderly population. Non-pharmacological interventions like Manual Visceral Physiotherapy (MVP) are being developed as an alternative approach to help reduce blood pressure without pharmacological side effects. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of MVP on changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure in elderly patients with essential hypertension. This study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach on 11 respondents aged ?46 years who underwent 12 sessions of MVP over 4 weeks. Blood pressure was measured before and after the intervention using a sphygmomanometer and analyzed with the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The results showed that the average systolic blood pressure decreased from 162 mmHg to 129 mmHg, and diastolic from 96 mmHg to 81 mmHg, with a p-value = 0.003 indicating a significant decrease. It can be concluded that MVP is effective in reducing blood pressure in elderly patients with essential hypertension and has the potential to be used as a complementary therapy in physiotherapy practice. Keywords:          Hypertension, Visceral Physiotherapy, Elderly   Abstrak Hipertensi esensial merupakan penyebab utama morbiditas dan mortalitas global, khususnya pada lansia. Manual Visceral Physiotherapy (MVP) dikembangkan sebagai intervensi non-farmakologis untuk menurunkan tekanan darah tanpa efek samping obat. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui efektivitas MVP terhadap perubahan tekanan darah sistolik dan diastolik pada lansia dengan hipertensi esensial. Desain penelitian menggunakan pra-eksperimen dengan one group pretest-posttest pada 11 responden berusia ?46 tahun yang menjalani 12 sesi MVP selama 4 minggu. Tekanan darah diukur sebelum dan sesudah intervensi, lalu dianalisis dengan uji Wilcoxon Signed Rank. Hasil menunjukkan penurunan rata-rata tekanan darah sistolik dari 162 mmHg menjadi 129 mmHg dan diastolik dari 96 mmHg menjadi 81 mmHg, dengan nilai p=0,003 yang menunjukkan signifikansi statistik. Disimpulkan bahwa MVP efektif menurunkan tekanan darah dan berpotensi sebagai terapi komplementer dalam fisioterapi. Kata Kunci:         Hipertensi, Fisioterapi Viseral, Lansia
