Abstract

Background: Gadgets are modern communication tools designed with advanced technology to facilitate communication. Prolonged use of gadgets can lead to excessive load on the cervical spine, resulting in neck pain. Objectives: This study aims to determine the effect of gadget usage duration on neck pain complaints among students of the Physiotherapy Department at Poltekkes Kemenkes Surakarta.  Methods: This research employed a comparative analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 212 active students from the Physiotherapy Department at Poltekkes Kemenkes Surakarta were selected through an online questionnaire. The variables examined included daily gadget usage duration and the level of neck pain, measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test.  Results: The findings showed that the majority of respondents used gadgets for more than 6 hours per day (117 respondents), and most reported mild neck pain (138 respondents). However, the Chi-square test produced a p-value of 0.941 (p > 0.05), indicating that there was no significant relationship between gadget usage duration and neck pain complaints among the physiotherapy students. Although neck pain complaints were more commonly found among respondents with longer gadget use duration, the relationship was not statistically proven. Conclusion: Based on the results, it can be concluded that the duration of gadget use does not affect the frequency level of neck pain complaints among students of the Physiotherapy Department at Poltekkes Kemenkes Surakarta.

Abstract

Pembatasan aktivitas diluar rumah mengakibatkan penurunan kapasitas fisik masyarakat tidak terkecuali penderita diabetes mellitus. Penderita DIABETES MELITUS terbukti rentan terhadap infeksi penyakit, terutama yang disebabkan oleh bakteri dan virus yang mempengaruhi saluran nafas bawah. Dibalik mekanisme yang tidak diketahui saat ini, kadar glukosa tinggi memiliki peran yang cukup relevan berkaitan dengan komplikasi terkait diabetes kronis. Sebagaimana diketahui, kadar glukosa yang tinggi ini bertanggung jawab atas gangguan fungsi antibakteri neutrophil. Mikroangiopatik tampaknya terjadi di saluran pernapasan penderita DM, sehingga menghambat pertukaran gas di paru-paru. Beberapa laporan juga memperlihatkan kerentanan yang lebih tinggi terhadap infeksi saluran pernapasan bawah yang disebabkan oleh mikroorganisme atipikal dan episode penumonia parah pada penderita diabetes mellitus. Untuk itu perlu adanya upaya lebih lanjut dalam mencegah kerentanan resiko bagi penderita diabetes mellitus. Metode Pendekatan: Penyuluhan dan Pemeriksaan rutin penderita diabetes mellitus. Tempat dan waktu: Di Kelurahan Tegalgiri, Nogosari, Boyolali pada bulan April – Agustus 2025. Target luaran: Termonitor kesehatan penderita diabetes mellitus.
