Abstract

Kelurahan Kroyo, located in Karangmalang District, Sragen Regency, has strategic road access and the majority of its population works in the private sector, agriculture, and as brick craftsmen. However, the physical conditions often leading to heavy physical activity have made health issues, especially low back pain (LBP), a major health concern. LBP, a common problem among the elderly, is often triggered by factors such as aging, poor work habits, and a lack of physical activity. This can decrease the quality of life and productivity within the community. The purpose of this community service program is to provide preventive education and management of LBP through health counseling and physiotherapy interventions to the community of Kelurahan Kroyo, particularly members of the Persatuan Wredatama Republik Indonesia (PWRI). The participant in this activity is the PWRI Branch of Karangmalang, which has 26 elderly members. The implementation method of this program was carried out in three stages: preparation (coordination with the village administration and the village midwife), execution (health counseling and interactive discussions), and evaluation (post-test to assess participants' understanding). The results of the activity show an increase in participants' knowledge about the prevention and management of LBP, with the pre-test average score being 36.7% and the post-test increasing to 63.3%. This activity not only enhanced health awareness but also provided practical skills that can be applied in daily life, such as stretching exercises and proper posture. Through this community service, it is hoped that PWRI members will be able to reduce LBP complaints and lead a healthier and more productive life.

Abstract

Background: Due to its strong association with major morbidity and mortality in the elderly, such as heart attack, stroke, kidney disease, and death, hypertension is currently one of the health problems associated with non-communicable diseases. It is certainly influenced by various vari¬ables, one of which is one’s cardiorespiratory fitness which can affect blood pressure. The study aims to find out if there is a correlation between cardiorespiratory fitness and blood pressure in the elderly.Subjects and Method: The cross-sectional study was conducted in Pepe Village, Kwarasan, Juwiring, Klaten, Central Java. A sample of 31 elderly people was selected by using purposive sampling. The dependent variable was blood pressure. The independent variable was cardiorespiratory fitness. Cardiorespiratory fitness was measured by the Six Minute Walking Test (SMWT). Blood pressure was measured with a sphygmomanometer. The correlation between cardiorespiratory fitness and blood pressure was tested using Pearson correlation and Spearman rho with a 95% confidence interval and p<0.050 statistical meaningfulness.Results: Cardiorespiratory fitness lowered systolic blood pressure by 0.14 mmHg (r= -0.14; p= 0.442) and diastolic blood pressure by 0.55 mmHg (r= -0.55; p= 0.771), but both were statistically insignificant.Conclusion: There was no relationship between blood pressure and physical fitness in the elderly.Keywords: hypertension, blood pressure, cardiorespiratory fitness, six-minute walking test, elderly.Correspondence: Farid Rahman.

Abstract

Latar Belakang: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) adalah kondisi medis umum yang menyebabkan rasa sakit, mati rasa, dan kesemutan di tangan dan lengan pada pasien yang mengalami CTS. CTS terjadi ketika saraf median ditekan saat bergerak melalui pergelangan tangan. Faktor risiko untuk CTS termasuk obesitas, aktivitas pergelangan tangan yang monoton, kehamilan, keturunan genetik, dan peradangan reumatoid. Manifestasi klinis yang muncul berupa adanya nyeri, penurunan lingkup gerak sendi, penurunan kekuatan otot dan penurunan aktivitas fungsional. Intervensi untuk penanganan carpal tunnel syndrome dapat menggunakan transcutaneous electrical nerve (TENS), ultrasound (US), dan terapi latihan berupa strengthening. Metode: Studi kasus tunggal dengan desain penelitian pre dan post test yaitu membandingkan antara penilaian sebelum dan sesudah intervensi TENS, Ultrasound dan terapi latihan berupa strengthening exercise kemudian diobservasi dan dievaluasi sebanyak 3 kali. Hasil: Terjadi perubahan pada skala nyeri dengan NRS , kekuatan otot dengan MMT, dan kemampuan fungsional dengan Wrist Hand Disability Index (WHDI). Kesimpulan: Studi kasus ini menyimpulkan bahwa intervensi fisioterapi berpengaruh pada nyeri, kekuatan otot dan kemampuan fungsional pada pasien CTS. Full Text:
