Abstract

Children with cerebral palsy will experience problems with their movements. Cerebral palsy affects muscles and a person's ability to control them. One of the disorders that occur in children with CP is disturbances in walking balance, which ultimately results in disturbances in walking motor skills, so children experience disturbances in daily living (ADL) activities in their daily lives. This research aims to determine the effect of using Anke Foot Orthosis on children's functional balance. Cerebral Palsy. Method: This type of research uses a Quasy Experiment with a pretest-posttest with a control group design. The total sample for this study was 10 respondents. Data collection was carried out using observation sheets. Analysis of this research data using univariate and bivariate analysis with Wilcoxon. Results: The influence of using Anke Foot Orthosis on the functional balance of Cerebral Palsy children, data taken before and after treatment with a value > 0.05. The conclusion is that there is no significant effect between using Anke Foot Orthosis and functional balance in children with cerebral palsy.

Abstract

Background: The risk of falls among the elderly was a significant public health issue, as it could lead to serious injuries, decreased quality of life, and increased healthcare costs. One of the main contributing factors to falls was the decline in knee joint stability and balance function. The use of simple orthoses such as knee supports was suspected to provide additional stabilization and enhance proprioceptive input, thereby improving balance and reducing the risk of falls. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effect of knee support use on the risk of falls in the elderly in terms of static and dynamic balance. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. The sample consisted of 15 elderly individuals at the Posyandu Lansia in Dusun Pepe, Kelurahan Gedongan. The instrument used to measure static balance was the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), and for dynamic balance, the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test was used. Data were analyzed using a Paired T-Test and Wilcoxon, preceded by a normality test using the Shapiro-Wilk method. Results: The results of the pairedsample t-test and wilcoxon test showed that the significance value was less than 0.05. There was an increase in BBS scores and a decrease in TUG time after the knee support intervention was given. Knee support had an effect on the risk of falls in the elderly in terms of both static and dynamic balance. All research participants were female. Conclusion: This study showed that knee support intervention affected the risk of falls in the elderly as seen from improvements in static and dynamic balance.
