Abstract

Background: Sarcopenia’s definition are low muscle strength, low muscle quantity or quality, and low muscle performance. Several studies have found that skeletal mass can decrease as a result of a lack of physical activity and it along have to increase risk of adverse outcomes including falls, frailty, disability, morbidity and mortality. Exercise interventions is the most effective strategy for increasing the skeletal muscle mass and maintain functional independence of elderly people. In this review will discuss about how physical activity be a habitual exercise that less cost and easy to do, will be home based exercise for elderly people with sarcopenia to decrease of exacerbate. Methods: The literature had selected studies from the following databases: PubMed, Google Scholar and PEDro. We explored evidence which relevant topic using the following database with keyword ‘sarcopenia and pre-sarcopenia’, ‘exercise for sarcopenia and pre-sarcopenia’, 'home-based exercise’, ‘physical activity for elderly’, ‘elderly with sarcopenia’ and selection by inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Four studies were corresponded with home exercise-based habitual physical activity for people with pre sarcopenia and prevent sarcopenia which have been analyzed as results of the study. The habitual physical activity that can be home based exercise for prevent decreasing of muscle mass in elderly people are exercise snacking, stretching exercise, walking and tele exercise. All of the exercises showed significantly increased muscle mass and were easy to do, and those safety. The easiest is exercise snacking, but stretching exercise and walking around are more effective to increase the muscle mass and muscle strength compared to exercise snacking along. Conclusion: Sarcopenia can be prevented in older adults with in home-based exercise from habitual physical activity such as exercise snacking, stretching exercise, walking around, and tele-exercise.

Abstract

Background: Hernia Nucleus Pulposus (HNP) is a condition in which the nucleus pulposus has bulged from the intervertebral disc, consequently damages the walls of the annulus fibrosus and compresses the nerves. Clinical problems such as radiating pain, sensory disturbances according to dermatomes, muscle weakness, restricted range of motion, especially during flexion, and decreased functional ability. Core stability exercise is one of the physiotherapy treatments to reduce pain and improve the patient's functional ability with lumbar HNP. The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of core stability exercise on increasing functional ability in cases of lumbar HNP with Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire as a parameter. Methods: A single case study provided a physiotherapy intervention to a 56-year-old female patient for four weeks with four evaluations. The dose of exercise given was three times a week, three sets, five repetitions, 6-9 minutes of each type of exercise, and hold time 5-10 seconds. The improvement of functional ability is measured by using the Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire. Results: There was an improvement in functional ability as measured by Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire. At pre-intervention, the Modified Oswestry score was 52% meaning the patient had severe disability. On the 4th week evaluation, the patient's Modified Oswestry score decreased to 26%, indicating moderate disability. Conclusion: This study showed that core stability exercise effectively improved functional ability in a patient with lumbar HNP.

Abstract

Background: Elderly is someone who has reached the age of 60 years and over. Along with increasing age, a person will experience physical changes in the musculoskeletal system, which causes a decrease in the number of muscle fibers and muscle mass. This can result in a decrease in muscle strength, especially in the leg muscles, which is one of the factors that can affect the balance of the human body. The decreased dynamic balance will result in the risk of injury in the elderly. Objective: The aim of this study was to prove the relationship of leg muscle strength and dynamic balance in the elderly. Methods: The design of this study was a cross sectional study conducted in April 2021 with a population of all elderly people in Banjar Jasan, Desa Sebatu, Kecamatan Tegalalang, Kabupaten Gianyar, that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, so that 46 samples were obtained. Measurement of muscle strength using a Leg Dynamometer and dynamic balance using the TUG test. Data analyzed using computer software, namely the Pearson test to determine the relationship of leg muscle strength and dynamic balance. Results: The results showed that from 46 elderly there was a relationship of leg muscle strength and dynamic balance using the Pearson test with p results of 0.001 (p < 0.05) with a correlation coefficient of -0.819 (r > 0.05) which indicates a very strong correlation. Conclusion: It can be concluded that there is a very strong and negative relationship between leg muscle strength and dynamic balance in the elderly.

Abstract

Introduction: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) is one of knee’s ligaments that serves as a passive stabilization of the knee joint, to prevent excessive anterior tibia translation. On the medical management of an ACL tear, will be reconstructed with a surgical procedure, to graft the ACL using tendon tissue to restore joint fixation and stabilization, this surgery can be done with arthroscopy. In the post-reconstruction conditions, appropriate physiotherapy management is needed to reduce the risk of complications such as swelling, decreased joint range motion, muscle weakness, decreased balance and functional activity. Therefore, in this case, we discuss the early management of physiotherapy in cases of ACL reconstruction. Case Report: The patient was a male of 25 years who suffered a complete tear of the right ACL. He underwent an arthroscopically aided reconstruction 2 weeks after the injury with hamstring autograft. After 1 weeks, he visited the physiotherapy clinic and at the time had trouble bending and straighten the knee, his thigh muscles seemed to shrink, and difficulty to walk. Rehabilitation is carried out one session a day, six days a week, included exercise to improve ROM, strength, and gait training. Conclusion: This case suggests the exercise program provided can increase the range of motion of the knee joint after ACL reconstruction. Results of this case suggest a need for continued research with a larger group of patients with long-term evaluation is necessary to evaluate the safety and efficiency of exercise program in this case.
