Single Case Study : Pengaruh Latihan Hidroterapi Terhadap Intensitas Nyeri Dan Kemampuan Fungsional Pada Pasien Osteoarthritis Genu

Background: The aging process and life expectancy increase the number of osteoarthritis. One of them is arthropathy of the knee, the main symptoms of which are pain in the knee and a decrease in the patient’s ability to perform functional activities. The purpose of osteoarthritis treatment is to relieve symptoms, improve the patient’s quality of life, and prevent the further development of disease. Although exercise on land is comfortable, pain makes it difficult for patients to carry out weight-bearing physical activities in daily life due to pain, ultimately leading to poor mobility, knee stiffness and muscle weakness. Exercise in water or hydrotherapy has a buoyancy effect (water buoyancy) which has the potential to reduce joint stress, the effect of hydrostatic pressure and water temperature can relieve joint pain.Case description: We report 2 respondents where respondent A is a woman aged 50 years, from radiological examination results with the impression of grade II knee osteoarthritis. Then respondent B is a 44-year-old woman, with radiological examination results with the impression of grade I-II knee osteoarthritis. Intervention: For one month 2 respondents were given hydrotherapy exercises once a week so that respondents received 4 hydrotherapy exercise sessions where one session was 45-60 minutes carried out from May to June 2022. Result: The treatment or intervention carried our by the researcher to 2 respondents by giving 4 session of hydrotherapy exercises, there was a decrease in the intensity of motion pain assessed using NRS and increase in the patient’s functional ability based on the WOMAC questionnaire. Conclusion: Our case shows that hydrotherapy exercise on respondents with osteoarthritis genu dextra grade II and osteoarthritis genu grade I-II can be concluded that hydrotherapy exercise can reduce motion pain intensity and improve functional ability in both respondents

Pengaruh Pemberian Four Square Step Test Terhadap Peningkatan Keseimbangan dan Penurunan Risiko Jatuh pada Lansia : Critical Review

Background: Aging is generally accompanied by physical and physiological decline which results in restrictions and prevention in performing several activities in individuals, one of which is related to balance. Balance and coordination disorders can result in an increased risk of falls in the elderly. about 30% of the elderly are known to have experienced falls, and generally women have a higher risk of falling than men. One method to improve balance is the FSST, which stimulates the work of muscles, joints, and improves coordination of the visual and vestibular systems. Objective: To review scientific articles on the effect of giving the FSST on improving balance and reducing the risk of falling in the elderly. Methods: Using a critical review system on 8 selected articles with a Randomized Controlled Trial study design. Results: The FSST is proven to improve balance and reduce the risk of falling in the elderly. Conclusion: The FSST is recommended as a method of improving balance in the elderly due to structured physical activity that can train muscles, joints, and train coordination of the visual system in changing environmental conditions where FSST is recommended to be done three times a week for five weeks
