Abstract

Background: Osteoarthritis genu is a degenerative disease with symptoms of chronic inflammation of the joint cartilage which causes pain, limited movement and function. Closed kinetic chain exercise is an active movement that involves many joints and muscle groups simultaneously. This study aims to analyze the effect of closed kinetic chain exercise on reducing pain and increasing functional ability in osteoarthritis genu. Subjects and Method: Quasi experimental research with a research approach in the form of pretest and posttest with control group design. This study was conducted at RST dr. Soedjono Magelang in May-June 2023. A total of 20 osteoarthritis genu patients were divided into two groups: (1) The intervention group was given closed kinetic chain exercise and (2) The control group was given conventional physiotherapy. Pain level was measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Functional ability was measured by the Western Ontario and McMaster Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). Mean differences between the closed kinetic chain exercise group and the conventional physiotherapy group were analyzed using the independent t-test. Results: Providing closed kinetic chain exercise is effective in reducing the level of silent pain (Effect Size = 1.20; p= 0.014), movement pain (Effect Size= 0.99; p= 0.004), movement pain (Effect Size= 1.37; p= 0.023), and increasing functional ability in osteoarthritis genu patients (Effect Size = 0.10; p= 0.023). Conclusion: Providing closed kinetic chain exercise can reduce pain and increase functional ability in osteoarthritis genu.

Abstract

Background: Anxiety in pregnancy has many adverse effects, both on maternal mental health and birth outcomes, as well as being a risk factor for maternal depression. The period of pregnancy and childbirth is said to be a period of life that has the potential for pregnant women to experience stress. Early pregnancy occurs in young women aged <20 years. This study aims to analyze and examine the relationship between early pregnancy and postpartum anxiety using a systematic review method. Method: This research is a systematic review with PICO including: (1) Population: pregnant women; (2) Intervention: Early pregnancy; (3) Normal age pregnancy; (4) Postpartum blues. The databases used are Google Scholar, PubMed, and GARUDA. Inclusion criteria include full text in Indonesian and English with research subjects being pregnant women with anxiety. The exclusion criteria in this study were articles published under the last five years. Results: A total of 9 articles stated that there was a relationship between early pregnancy and postpartum anxiety. The average level of anxiety during pregnancy is quite high, and approaches a severe anxiety score. Anxiety levels decreased immediately after delivery, but there was no further decrease until the late postpartum period.
