Abstract

Background: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common disorder in children, characterized by symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that can interfere with individual development. The prevalence of ADHD in Indonesia reaches 26.4%, with a higher rate in boys. Objectives: This study aims to explore the effect of music therapy on the level of hyperactivity of children with ADHD at YPAC Surakarta. Music therapy has been shown to stimulate the brain and reduce symptoms of hyperactivity through increased concentration and impulse control. Through the music intervention program, it is hoped that children can experience a decrease in hyperactive behavior, as well as an increase in social and emotional skills. This research contributes to the understanding of the use of alternative therapies in the treatment of ADHD in Indonesia. Methods: This study uses a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design, especially one group pretest-posttest design. Samples were taken using purposive sampling techniques based on inclusion criteria. Data analysis was carried out univariate and bivariate, including normality tests and hypothesis tests using paired sample t-tests. This method is designed to provide a clear picture of the impact of music therapy interventions on children with ADHD. Results: The research sample consisted of 17 children, dominated by the category of children with an age range of 5-9 years, totaling 11 people and the majority of whom were male. The results of the paired sample t-test showed that before the music therapy intervention, the average score of the participants was 14.65, while after the intervention, the average decreased to 12.24. The average difference between the two measurements was 2.412. A value of (ρ) less than 0.001 indicates a statistically significant difference. These results indicate that music therapy has a positive effect in reducing the level of hyperactivity in children with ADHD. Conclusion: The application of music therapy can be implemented as an intervention program to reduce hyperactivity levels in children with ADHD. Further research with a larger sample size is also needed, along with the involvement of parents in the therapy to strengthen the intervention outcomes.  Keywords: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Hyperactivity, Music Therapy

Abstract

Background: Independence in performing Activities of Daily Living (ADL) is a key indicator of quality of life among the elderly. Older adults who are able to carry out ADL independently tend to report higher levels of life satisfaction. However, rural areas have distinct social and environmental characteristics compared to urban settings, which may influence this relationship. Objectives: This study aims to examine the relationship between the level of ADL independence and life satisfaction among older adults living in rural areas of Karanganyar Regency. Methods: This research employed an analytical quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 100 older adults were selected through purposive sampling from several villages in Karanganyar Regency. The instruments used were the Katz Index for ADL and the Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) for measuring life satisfaction. Data were analyzed using the Cho-Square correlation test. Results: The results showed a significant relationship between ADL independence and life satisfaction among the elderly (p = 0.002; α < 0.05). Older adults who were independent in performing ADL tended to report moderate to high levels of life satisfaction compared to those who were not independent. Conclusion: There is a positive and significant relationship between independence in daily activities and life satisfaction among older adults in rural areas of Karanganyar Regency. Enhancing community-based assistance and rehabilitation programs can support elderly independence and improve their quality of life.

Abstract

Background: Non-specific neck pain is defined as pain in the posterior and lateral aspects of the neck between the superior nuchal line and the first thoracic spinous process without any signs or symptoms of structural pathology. Objectives: To determine which intervention is more effective between myofascial release and stretching in reducing pain in non-specific neck pain. Methods: This study employed a two-group pre-test and post-test design involving 30 respondents who were randomly assigned into two groups. Group I received myofascial release intervention, while Group II received stretching. Both interventions were administered three times per week for two weeks. Pain intensity was measured using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) before and after intervention. Data were analyzed using non-parametric tests: the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test for within-group comparisons and the Mann-Whitney U Test for between-group comparisons. Results: The Wilcoxon test showed significant differences between pre-test and post-test scores in both the myofascial release group (Z = -3.477; p < 0.001) and the stretching group (Z = -3.432; p < 0.001). The Mann-Whitney test indicated no significant difference in pre-test scores between groups (p = 0.839), but a significant difference was found in post-test scores (p = 0.009). Conclusion: Both myofascial release and stretching are effective in reducing pain in non-specific neck pain. However, myofascial release is more effective compared to stretching. Keywords: Pain, Neck Pain, Myofascial Release, Stretching.

Abstract

Background: Non-ergonomic work positions and monotonous postures, when maintained for extended periods, can have detrimental effects on workers, leading to muscle tension in the neck and shoulders, which may result in neck pain. Non specific neck pain refers to pain that can be provoked by static neck postures over long durations, neck movements, and tenderness upon palpation of cervical muscles without accompanying pathological conditions. Physiotherapy interventions that can be applied to reduce non-specific neck pain include post-isometric relaxation and stretching exercises. Objectives: To determine which intervention is more effective between post-isometric relaxation and stretching exercises in reducing non-specific neck pain. Methods: An experimental study with a two-group pre-and-post test design was conducted over two weeks in September 2024. Subjects were workers in a garment factory who met the inclusion criteria. A total of 52 subjects were randomly divided into two groups. Group I (n=27) received treatment through post isometric relaxation, while Group II (n=25) received treatment through stretching exercises. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used to measure the reduction in neck pain. Results: Based on the results of the pre-post test statistical test of groups I and II, a value of p = 0.000 (p< 0.05) was obtained, which means that there is an effect of the pre-post test statistical test of groups I and II. For the post-test statistics of groups I and II, a value of p = 0.000 (p < 0.05) This indicates a difference in effect, with a mean difference of 26.51 in the PIR group and 14.2 in the stretching exercise group.Conclusion: Post-isometric relaxation is more effective in reducing pain in non-specific neck pain. Keywords: Non-specific neck pain, Post isometric relaxation, Stretching exercise, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).

Abstract

Background: High blood pressure or commonly known as hypertension is a non-curable disease characterized by systolic pressure ≥140 mmHg and diastolic pressure ≥90 mmHg. Exercise is a non-pharmacological treatment that has a significant effect in lowering blood pressure and exercise can be done by anyone because it is easy. Physiotherapy plays a role in providing elastic band exercise (EBE) which is one of the exercises that can improve muscle strength, body composition, and cardiovascular fitness in the elderly. When someone does exercise, there is a decrease in activity in the sympathetic nerves and the parasympathetic nerves experience an increase in activity, which causes the body to automatically respond to a decrease in blood pressure. Objectives: To determine the effect of elastic band exercise on lowering blood pressure in the elderly. Methods: The subjects in this study were 30 members of the Elderly Posyandu (Poslan) in Tohudan Hamlet, Colomadu Karanganyar. The inclusion criteria in this study are as follows: (1) subjects aged 60-79 years (2) hypertension with systolic pressure ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic pressure ≥90 mmHg, (3) communicate well and are able to follow the instructions given (4) willing to participate in the study by signing an informed consent. This study is a pre-experimental study, the research design uses a one group pre-post test design, namely one group of elderly people who will be given treatment in the form of elastic band exercise. Results: The results of the difference in the effect of pre-test and post-test on research subjects using the Wilcoxon Test obtained results for systole p = 0.00 (p <0.05) and diastole p = 0.00 (p <0.05). This shows the influence of research subjects on reducing blood pressure in the elderly. Conclusion: Providing elastic band exercise has an effect on reducing blood pressure in the elderly. Keywords: Elastic band exercise, Blood pressure, Elderly, Hypertension.

Abstract

Background: Elderly individuals are an age group vulnerable to various health problems, one of which is hypertension. Hypertension in the elderly can be influenced by several factors, including age, Body Mass Index (BMI), physical activity level, and smoking history. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the relationship between these factors and blood pressure in the elderly. Methods: This research employed a cross-sectional design with a quantitative approach. The study subjects were elderly aged ≥60 years living in the area of Posyandu Lansia Brotoseno, Indronatan Village, Kartasura Subdistrict, Sukoharjo Regency. Data were collected through interviews, BMI measurement, and blood pressure examination, then analyzed using Spearman and Kendall’s Tau correlation tests. Results: The findings showed a significant positive correlation between age and blood pressure (p=0.00; r=0.630), no significant correlation between BMI and blood pressure (p=0.263; r=-0.161), a significant negative correlation between physical activity and blood pressure (p=0.00; r=-0.572), and no significant correlation between smoking history and blood pressure (p=0.196; r=0.169). Conclusion: The study concludes that age and physical activity are significantly associated with blood pressure in the elderly, while BMI and smoking history are not significantly related.

Abstract

Background: Hearing loss in children is one of the main causes of delayed language development, which affects cognitive, social, and academic domains. Early interventions such as hearing aids (HA), cochlear implants (CI), and speech therapy have been developed to minimize these impacts. Objectives: This study aims to review the effectiveness of early intervention on language development in children with hearing loss using a systematic review approach. Methods: Literature searches were conducted through PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, CINAHL, and Google Scholar databases, with inclusion criteria focusing on children aged 0–6 years who received intervention before six months of age. Results: Seven studies met the eligibility criteria and were included in the synthesis. The results indicate that children who received intervention before six months demonstrated significantly better receptive and expressive language outcomes compared to those who were treated later. Factors such as family involvement, consistent device use, and the application of auditory-verbal therapy contributed substantially to successful intervention outcomes. Conversely, delayed diagnosis and limited service accessibility remain major barriers in developing countries. Conclusion: early intervention is proven effective in enhancing language development among children with hearing loss; therefore, early screening and timely therapy should be prioritized within pediatric healthcare services. Keywords: Early intervention, Hearing loss, Language development, Effectiveness
