Insiden osteoarthritis pada hip joint, osteoarthritis pada knee joint, dan degenerative lumbar spondylosis semakin meningkat seiring dengan bertambahnya populasi penduduk usia tua. Kasus Hip/Knee Spine syndrome sendiri cukup sering ditemukan. Namun literatur yang mengevaluasi kondisi klinis, khususnya keluhan low back pain pada pasien dengan hip/knee spine syndrome post total hip/knee replacement masih sangat terbatas Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengevaluasi efek dari total hip/knee replacement pada pasien dengan hip/knee spine syndrome, berkaitan dengan keluhan low back pain.Penelitian ini adalah observasional retrospektif. Penelitian ini menggunakan 5 orang pasien post total hip/knee replacement yang juga didapatkan keluhan low back pain. Pasien yang terpilih akan dievaluasi klinis dengan menggunakan kuesioner LBP VAS Score, Oswestry Disability Index, Hip Harris Score untuk pasien post total hip replacement, dan Oxford Knee Score untuk pasien post total knee replacement. Dilakukan pengamatan pre dan post operasi pada seluruh pasien. Data pasien didapatkan dari Rumah Sakit Orthopaedi dan Traumatologi Surabaya mulai bulan Juni-November 2015.Berdasarkan test paired samples, didapatkan hasil sig 0,001 (< 0,05) pada skor VAS dan sig 0,033 (<0,05) pada skor ODI. Maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara skor VAS LBP dan skor ODI sebelum dan setelah terapi Hip/Knee Replacement pada pasien dengan Hip/Knee Spine Syndrome.

For total knee replacement (TKR) patients, rehabilitation after the surgery is key to regaining mobility. This study proposes a sensor-based system for effectively monitoring rehabilitation progress after TKR. The system comprises a hardware module consisting of the triaxial accelerometer and gyroscope, a microcontroller, and a Bluetooth module, and a software app for monitoring the motion of the knee joint. Three indices, namely the number of swings, the maximum knee flexion angle, and the duration of practice each time, were used as metrics to measure the knee rehabilitation progress. The proposed sensor device has advantages such as usability without spatiotemporal constraints and accuracy in monitoring the rehabilitation progress. The performance of the proposed system was compared with the measured range of motion of the Cybex isokinetic dynamometer (or Cybex) professional rehabilitation equipment, and the results revealed that the average absolute errors of the measured angles were between 1.65° and 3.27° for the TKR subjects, depending on the swing speed. Experimental results verified that the proposed system is effective and comparable with the professional equipment.

Abstract Background Mechanical low back pain (MLBP) is a major cause of illness and disability, especially in people of working age. People with chronic low back pain often experience anger, fear, anxiety, decrease in physical ability, and inadequacy of role fulfillment. Objective This study aimed to compare the efficacy of extension exercise program versus muscle energy technique in treating patients with chronic mechanical low back pain. Subjects and methods Forty patients complaining of chronic mechanical low back pain participated in the study. Patients were randomly allocated into two equal groups: group A which received spinal extension exercise program and group B which received muscle energy technique. Treatment sessions were given three times per week for four successive weeks. Patients were assessed before and after treatment using visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), and digital goniometer to assess pain intensity, functional disability, and range of motion (ROM) of lumbar spine respectively. Results There was significant decrease in the scores of pain and functional disability in both groups post-treatment especially in group B. There was significant increase in lumbar range of motion in both groups post-treatment, especially in group A. Conclusion Extension exercise program had better effect on improving lumbar range of motion, whereas muscle energy technique was better in decreasing pain and functional disability in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain.

Medicinal Cannabis

Background: Anecdotal evidence indicates the possible efficacy of cannabis use as an adjunctive treatment in chronic low back pain. The purpose of the current study was to assess the results of treatment of patients suffering from chronic low back pain by medicinal cannabis (MCT). Methods: A cohort of 46 patients was followed for a minimum of twelve months. They were evaluated at baseline prior to MCT, 3 months later when MCT was begun and up to 12 months of MCT by patient reported outcome questionnaire (SF-12), visual analogue scale (VAS) and the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI), back specific function was assessed using the Oswestry score, range of motion was measured using the Saunders digital inclinometer. Opiate use was assessed using pharmacy dispensation records at baseline and after 12 months of MCT. Inclusion criteria included: age over 25 years, sciatica with documented treatment for at least 12 months, evidence on CT or MRI scan of disc herniation or spinal stenosis, failure of at least two narcotic drugs, and consent to use medicinal cannabis. Exclusion criteria included evidence of bone cancer, evidence of diabetic neuropathy, and evidence of prior psychotic reactions. Treatment protocol: Cannabis usage was at a fixed dosage of 20 grams per month, dose increase was considered at least after 6 months of treatment. The cannabis was smoked at a recommended rate of 4 dosages per day. Results: After 12 months of MCT BPI VAS decreased from 8.4 ± 1.4 to 2.0 ± 2.0; SF12-PCS improved from 47 ± 14 to 55 ± 12; SF12-MCS improved from 44 ± 6 to 50 ± 10; and sagittal plane active range of motion improved from 34º ± 8º degrees to 48º ± 8º, In conclusion, short term usage of smoked medicinal cannabis appear to improve both physical and mental function while decreasing pain levels of chronic low back pain sufferers.
