The effect of hydrotherapy on pain intensity and functional ability in lumbar disk herniation (LDH) patients thatundergo non-operative procedure; pre-experimental study at medical rehabilitation installation of RSUPdr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang. Lumbar disk herniation (LDH) is the most common disease that becaused low backpain and functional disability. Some studies mentioned that hydrotherapy is an effective treatment for low back pain.Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effect of hydrotherapy on reducing pain intensity and improvingfunctional ability in LDH patients. This study was a pre-experimental study with one group pretest-posttest design. Datawas collected by direct interviews to the patients using visual analogue scale (VAS) to measure pain intensity andModified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire to assess functional ability before and after underwenthydrotherapy once a week for 4 weeks. The data then undergo Shapiro-Wilk normality test and continue with Paired t-Test or Wilcoxon test. From 30 subjects, it was found that there are effects of hydrotherapy on reducing pain intensity(p<0,001) and improving functional ability (p<0,001) in LDH patients that undergo non-operative procedure at theMedical Rehabilitation Installation of RSUP Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang. There are effects of hydrotherapy onpain intensity and functional ability in LDH patients that undergo non-operative procedure.

Study Design: Retrospective cohort study. Objective: There is only limited data on the outcome of primary surgery of lumbar disk herniation (LDH) in Dutch patients. The objective of this study is to describe undesirable outcomes after primary LDH. Methods: The National Claims Database (Vektis) was searched for primary LDH operations performed from July 2015 until June 2016, for reoperations within 18 months, prescription of opioids between 6 to 12 months and nerve root block within 1 year. A combined outcome measure was also made. Group comparisons were analyzed with the Student’s t-test. Results: Primary LDH surgery was performed in 6895 patients in 70 hospitals. Weighted mean of reoperations was 7.3%, nerve root block 6.7% and opioid use 15.6%. In total, 23.0% of patients had one or more undesirable outcomes after surgery. The 95% CI interval exceeded the 50% incidence line for 14 out of 26 hospitals with less than 50 surgical interventions per year. Although the data suggested a volume effect on undesired outcomes, the t-tests between hospitals with volume thresholds of 100, 150 and 200 interventions per year did not support this ( P values 0.078, 0.129, 0.114). Conclusion: This unique nationwide claims-based study provides insight into patient-relevant undesirable outcomes such as reoperation, nerve root block and opioid use after LDH surgery. About a quarter of the patients had a serious complication in the first follow up year that prompted further medical treatment. There is a wide variation in complication rates between hospitals with a trend that supports concentration of LDH care.
