Abstract

Balance impairment is one of the major problems commonly experienced by older adults as a result of degenerative processes, leading to an increased risk of falls. Falls may cause fear of recurrent falling, reduced physical activity, loss of physical capability, and may eventually result in disability and psychological consequences such as depression. Structured, occupation-based physical activity has been shown to provide various benefits for older adults, including improving physical function, slowing functional decline associated with degenerative processes, reducing fall risk, and enhancing postural control. This study aimed to analyze the effect of the occupation-based Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT) BIG method on functional balance in older adults. A quantitative approach with a pre-experimental pretest–posttest design was employed. A total of 10 participants were recruited using a total sampling technique and underwent 16 intervention sessions over a 4-week period, with each session lasting 60 minutes. Measurement instruments included a respondent characteristic questionnaire, the Berg Balance Scale as the primary outcome measure, and the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) for intervention planning. The results indicated that individual factors (age, Body Mass Index, and comorbidities), as well as physical activity characteristics (frequency, intensity, and duration of exercise), were not significantly associated with functional balance in this sample (p > 0.05). In contrast, the paired t-test analysis demonstrated a significant effect of the occupation-based LSVT BIG intervention on functional balance in older adults (p < 0.001). These findings suggest that the occupation-based LSVT BIG method may be considered a promising intervention approach for improving functional balance in older adults

Abstract

Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) remains a gold standard for restoring joint function in patients with severe hip osteoarthritis, yet achieving optimal functional recovery post-surgery remains a challenge. Robot-assisted rehabilitation (RAR) has emerged as a novel physiotherapy modality offering structured, repetitive, and sensor-driven training that may enhance recovery trajectories. Objective: This literature review aims to identify and synthesise current evidence on the effectiveness of RAR in improving functional outcomes after THA, focusing on gait performance, muscle strength, balance, and quality of life. Methods: A comprehensive search of PubMed, PEDro, ScienceDirect and Google Scholar was conducted for peer-reviewed articles published between 2015 and 2025. Studies included those evaluating robotic modalities in THA rehabilitation. Data extraction and narrative synthesis were guided by the PICO framework. Results: Eight studies met inclusion criteria. Robotic systems such as Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL), Honda Walking Assist (HWA), Luna-EMG and Hunova demonstrated improvements in gait speed, stride length, lower limb strength, balance control and patient-reported functional scores compared with conventional therapy. Evidence supports enhanced neuromuscular coordination through individualized robot-based training. Conclusion: Robot-assisted rehabilitation appears to be a promising modality to support functional recovery after THA. Nevertheless, further large-scale studies with long-term follow-up are needed to confirm sustained benefits and cost-effectiveness for routine clinical practice.

Abstract

Background: The use of laptops and computers has become an essential part of daily life, especially among adolescents. However, the habit of maintaining a static posture for prolonged periods while using these devices often leads to excessive strain on the neck and shoulder muscles. To address these problems, interventions such as Mc Kenzie exercise and post isometric relaxation can be applied. Objective: To determine the difference in the effects of Mc Kenzie exercise and post isometric relaxation on reducing nonspecific neck pain in adolescents. Methods: This study employed a two-group pre and post-test design conducted from June to July 2025 at SMAN 1 Pulung Ponorogo. Subjects were selected using simple random sampling, with a total of 30 participants. Group I received Mc Kenzie exercise, while Group II received post isometric relaxation. Each group underwent treatment twice a week for four weeks. Pain intensity was measured before the first session and after the eighth session using the visual analogue scale (VAS). Results: Statistical analysis using paired t-tests showed significant differences in both Group I (p=0.001, pConclusion: Both Mc Kenzie exercise and post isometric relaxation effectively reduced nonspecific neck pain. However, post isometric relaxation was found to be more effective in reducing pain compared to Mc Kenzie exercise.

Abstract

The global increase in the elderly population presents significant challenges in maintaining independence and quality of life among older adults. One of the most common problems experienced by the elderly is fear of falling, which negatively affects physical activity, balance, and psychological well-being. Community-based exercise programs represent an approach that not only improves physical function but also strengthens social interaction and self-confidence among older adults. This study aims to review community-based exercise programs in reducing fear of falling and improving quality of life among the elderly through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) using the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. The literature search was conducted in the PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Crossref databases with inclusion criteria consisting of Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT), quasi-experimental, and prospective studies published between 2020 and 2025. From a total of 1,288 articles identified, five studies met the final inclusion criteria and were analyzed thematically. The findings indicate that community-based exercise programs, particularly multicomponent exercises such as the Otago Exercise Programme, Fall Prevention Exercise Program, and group-based exercise, significantly reduce levels of fear of falling (p < 0.05) and improve quality of life as measured by instruments including the Falls Efficacy Scale International (FES-I), 12-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12), and 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36). In conclusion, participation of older adults in community-based exercise programs contributes positively to both physical and psychological well-being; therefore, the implementation of community-based exercise should be strengthened through multisectoral collaboration and the involvement of healthcare professionals to support sustainable healthy aging.
