Abstract

Introduction: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has spread rapidly and massively from China to the rest of the world. Many of the hospitalized COVID-19 patients suffered from psychiatric symptoms such as anxiety and sleep disturbances, besides physical symptoms. Treatment of the psychiatric symptoms commonly used sedative, hypnotic, and anti-anxiety drugs. However, these drugs have some side effects. As an alternative, non-pharmacological intervention is needed. Some previous studies have shown that progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) can improve anxiety levels and sleep quality in other hospitalized patients. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of PMR in hospitalized COVID-19 patients who experienced anxiety and sleep disturbances. Methods: We conducted a narrative review by searching for studies through PubMed and Google Scholar database with a publication time span from 2020 to 2021. Keywords used in the search: [“anxiety” or “sleep quality” or “sleep disturbances” or “COVID-19” or “patients”] and [“progressive muscle relaxation”]. Results: Based on the search result, we found three related articles: two randomized controlled trials and one observational study. The studies examined the effectiveness of PMR to improve anxiety and sleep quality in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. In the results of the three studies, PMR was effective in improving anxiety symptoms and sleep quality in COVID-19 patients. Conclusion: Considering not least of hospitalized COVID-19 patients who experienced anxiety and sleep disturbances, PMR as a non-pharmacological intervention can be implemented, because it is easy to perform and proven effective in reducing anxiety and sleep disturbances.

Abstract

Introduction: Flat foot is a common foot deformity marked by the absence of the medial longitudinal arch of the foot. Flexible flat foot is usually symptomless but can affect the biomechanics of the lower extremity and lumbar spine, possibly increasing the risk of pain and injury. Conservative management, including physiotherapy, is important in flat foot management, yet the number of reports regarding physiotherapy for flat foot is scarce. Therefore, this case report aimed to describe a case of bilateral flexible flat foot in a male adolescent who was treated with a comprehensive physiotherapy program. Case Description: A 17-year-old male presented to the physiotherapy clinic with flat foot deformity on both feet. The patient received an hour of comprehensive physiotherapy program per session, twice per week, which included lower extremity stretching, various foot and leg strengthening exercises, proprioception exercises, and an educational aspect. The footprint test was conducted and the patient was evaluated using the Arch Index. The Arch Index measurements according to Cavanagh and Rodgers decreased from 0.38 to 0.32 (left foot) and 0.35 to 0.28 (right foot). Likewise, Staheli’s Arch Index measurements also decreased from 1.54 to 1.02 (left foot) and 1.5 to 0.7 (right foot). Conclusion: Following 20 physiotherapy sessions, the patient’s Arch Index measurements demonstrated an overall reduction, indicating noteworthy improvements in the medial longitudinal arch height. Hence, it can be concluded that a comprehensive physiotherapy program can help improve the medial longitudinal arch height, and thereby foot posture, of an adolescent with bilateral flexible flat foot.

Abstract

Introduction: To prevent the spread of the virus during the COVID-19 pandemic, all students in Indonesia were learning from home using laptops for long durations, that cause neck disabilities. This study was conducted to determine the relationship between laptop use and disability in the neck region. Methods: This study was analyzed using multivariate logistic regression analysis with 106 students in semesters 3rd, 5th, and 7th as participants. Data was taken using a questionnaire on a google form which was distributed in August 2021. Participant data such as age, gender, semester level, height, weight, physical activity per day and per week, use of Kinesio taping, any physiotherapy action taken for neck pain, use of pain medication, use of laptops per day and per week, and ergonomic position were collected as predictors of neck pain which were interpreted if the neck disability index questionnaire (NDI) value was >60%. Results: This study showed the results of 106 participants that have been analyzed, an increase of 1 hour of laptop use in students has a significant relation to an increase in neck pain of 3.1% after adjusting with other variables (p = 0.034). At the same time, other characteristics did not show a significant effect after adjusting with other variables on the occurrence of neck pain. Conclusions: With every increase in the possibility of using a laptop in undergraduate students, there was a significant increase in the risk of developing NDI after adjusting with other variables (gender, use of painkillers, ergonomic position, physical activity, and semester).

Abstract

Introduction: When the exercises we perform exceed the muscle endurance threshold, Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) often occurs. DOMS is pain that a person feels 24 to 48 hours after strenuous physical activity or heavy and intense physical activity that can lead to damage to muscles and other connective tissues in the form of small tears in the muscles, muscle spasms, overstretching, and can cause tendon and connective tissue tears. Symptoms produced by DOMS conditions are certainly alarming for daily activities. This literature review will discuss ways to reduce DOMS conditions by using Intermittent Pneumatic Compression to overcome these conditions. Methods: The method in this study used a literature review based on the study results of data sources (including PubMed, ScienceDirect, NCBI, and Google Scholar) database with a publication period from 2017 to 2022. Keywords used in the search: [“Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness,” “DOMS” or “Muscle Soreness”] and [“Intermittent Pneumatic Compression” or “Recovery Pump”]. Results: We found three related articles: two randomized controlled trials and one cross-over design based on the search result. The studies examined the effectiveness of Intermittent Pneumatic Compression on Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. In the results of the three studies, Intermittent Pneumatic Compression offered little to no benefit in the recovery of DOMS inactive people. Conclusion: All studies concluded Intermittent Pneumatic Compression was not effective in reducing Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness.

Abstract

Introduction: Plantar fasciitis is a degenerative syndrome that causes inflammation of the plantar fascia due to repetitive trauma and excessive stretching, which can cause a tear in the plantar fascia. This study aimed to determine the possible risk factors that affect the incidence of plantar fasciitis. Methods: This study design was the literature review. This study searched journals through Google Scholar and PubMed databases related to plantar fasciitis or the factors that influence plantar fasciitis. Results: In general, the risk factors for plantar fasciitis are classified into intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Inherent factors can be age, gender, and body mass index (BMI), while outside factors are the use of shoes and duration or standing time. Conclusions: A high BMI is a more dominant intrinsic factor in causing plantar fasciitis. Meanwhile, the use of shoes and the duration of time of standing were the more dominant external factors for the incidence of plantar fasciitis.

Abstract

Background: This study aimed to produce the Indonesian version of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament-Return to Sport After Injury (ACL-RSI) questionnaire and determine the value of content validity, construct validity, known-groups validity, and internal consistency reliability. Methods: First, the ACL-RSI questionnaire was translated through a cross-cultural adaptation process. Six experts in related fields assessed the adapted questionnaire by giving scores on four criteria: relevance, clarity, simplicity, and ambiguity, which will be calculated into content validity value. Seventy-one participants who experienced ACL injury because of sporting activities and had undergone reconstruction who joined the online community for Knee Injury Patients Support Group filled out the ACL-RSI to determine the known-groups validity and internal consistency reliability. The participants also filled out the Indonesian version of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) as a comparison to test construct validity. Results: The calculated content validity value obtained from the experts’ scoring was S-CVI/Ave = 0.97. Construct validity between ACL-RSI and all KOOS subscales showed a strong positive correlation with r = 0.78-0.87. Two hypotheses for known-groups validity were proven, with the group that had returned to their specific sport having a better ACL-RSI score than the group that had not returned (70.2 ± 10.0 vs. 49.3 ± 18.8, p<0.001), and the group planned to return to their specific sport as before the injury had a better ACL-RSI score than the group who did not intend to return (60.3 ± 16.5 vs. 32.6 ± 2.4, p<0.001). Internal consistency ACL-RSI showed very good reliability with Cronbach’s alpha = 0.96. Conclusions: The Indonesian version of ACL-RSI is valid and reliable for evaluating psychological readiness to return to sports after ACL reconstruction. However, a seemingly further similar study is necessary to fix the weaknesses in this study to produce a more representative Indonesian version of the ACL-RSI questionnaire.
