Pain In The Elderly

Background: The aging process results in changes in the musculoskeletal system causing a decrease in function of joints, loss of elasticity and limited mobility. This condition also causes joint pain, especially in the joints supporting the body weight, namely the knee. The previous studies discussed the method of reducing pain using a contras bath which was implemented by soaking parts of the body that experience pain alternately with hot and cold water, this was difficult to apply if the pain occurs in the upper body. Modifications in contrast baths using compresses to the knee joint have never been implemented before.Objective: This study aimed to figure out the effect of the contras bath method using compresses to reduce knee joint pain in the elderly.Method: The design of this study was pre-experimental with one group of pretest-posttest. The sample used was 16 elderly who were selected by random sampling at Posyandu (a center for pre- and postnatal health care and information for elderly) in village of Sawit Gantiwarno, Klaten. Contrast bath is applied by giving compresses of warm and cold water alternately with a ratio of three minutes: one minute per-day during 20 minutes, for a week. Pain measurement is performed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) instrument.Result: The mean of knee pain before giving a contrast bath was 5.44, whereas after a contrast bath was 3.50. Bivariate analysis used Wilcoxon, it showed p value <0.05 which means there was a significant difference in knee joint pain before and after contrast baths were applied.Conclusion: Administration of contrast bath can reduce knee joint pain in the elderly.

Pain In The Elderly

Gout and rheumatoid arthritis is a disease that is often encountered in the community, one of them on the elderly (the elderly) are characterized by pain that occurs repeatedly in the joints. Ginger compress can be used as a nonpharmacological measures to deal with the pain. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of ginger compress in reducing joint pain in the elderly in UPT PSTW Khusnul Khotimah Pekanbaru. This design of research is a quasi experiment with sampling total sampling with 16 respondents. Data collection tool using pain scale test pre and post administration of ginger compress. The research result shows that the average intensity of joint pain before and after the ginger compress is 2.500. The test results obtained statistical p value = 0.000 where p <α 0:05. this means that there are differences in average significant difference between the intensity of joint pain in the elderly before and after the ginger compress.

Aging is a process that will be experienced by humans according to the cycle of growth and development. Changes both physically and psychologically often cause disorders and health problems that must be resolved. Problems with the physical aspect of the elderly, one of which is a decrease in musculoskeletal function, especially in the joints, often manifest the appearance of joint pain. The presence of joint cartilage damage due to inflammation, as well as an increase in the load on the joints due to excess body weight (obesity) is other factors that often arise. The hip, lumbal, cervical and knee joints are the parts that support the body's weight, so they experience the most problems. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between obesity and the incidence of knee joint pain in the elderly. The design of the study was correlational analytic with a cross sectional approach. The sampling was purposive sampling with 50 respondents as the sample. The instrument used was an observation sheet to measure the respondent's obesity variable and to determine the presence of joint pain using an interview form. The measurement results were then processed and bivariate analysis was carried out using the chi square test. The results of the research analysis Showed the value of p = 0.004 and α = 0.05, this meant that p < 0.05, so there was a correlation between the level of obesity and the occurrence of joint pain. This was because not only age but also  increasing body weight cause joint paint.  The ability of the knee joint to support the body as a whole was getting heavier due to friction of the joint cartilage. From these studies, it can be concluded that in the elderly, excess body weight can affect to the ability of bones and joints and result in joint pain. The health workers should support the elderly so that the elderly avoid the stress.

BACKGROUND : Joint pain is a condition that often experienced for elderly and caused by a degenerative disease that causes reduced joint synovial fluid and give a pain and joint stiffness. ROM excercise is an exercise to increasing flexibility of muscles and joints. PURPOSE : The purpose of this research was to find out the effect of ROM excercise on lower extremities joint pain level for elderly. METHODS : The method of this research was a quasi experimental research design consisted of pre and postest without control. The data collected by 6 time for 2 weeks, with amount of sample counted 33 respondents. The level of the lower extremities joint pain was measured by VAS pain scale. The data were analyzed with SPSS 17 program with non parametric statistic test, to see the scale of lower extremities joint pain in elderly when there was no movement was measured by McNemar test, while moving (walk) and to see the general lower extremities pain scale before and after ROM exercise was measured by Marginal Homogenity test. RESULTS : The research result showed the differences of joint pain scale before and after ROM exercise when the elderly has no movement (p value = 0,05), and there is a differences for pain scale before and after ROM exercise when the elderly has movement (p value = 0,005). Generally, there is a difference joint pain level between before and after ROM exercise (p value = 0,014). CONCLUSIONS : After doing ROM exercise for 6 times, the reduction of joint pain in elderly was occured. When there was no any movement, the level of low joint pain in elderly before ROM exercise was about 30,3% to being 3% after ROM exercise. When moving (walk) the level of low joint pain which is being suffering by elderly from 54% before ROM exercise being 36,4% after ROM exercise. While generally before ROM exercise, the level of medium joint pain in elderly was about 15,2% before ROM exercise being null (0%), means that no body suffers joint pain after ROM exercise. Statistically, based on non-parametric test by McNemar and Marginal Homogeneity test, there was the significant difference in scale of average scores in joint pain before and after ROM exercise when there was no any movement with P-value 0,004 and when the was a movement (walk) P-value 0,005. Generally, there was the difference in avarage scores in joint pain in elderly before and after ROM exercise with P-Value 0,014. So, ROM exercise can be used as a way to decrease the scale of joint pain in erderly.

ABSTRACT   Joint inflammation characterized by swelling of the joints, redness, heat, pain and movement disorders. Arthralgia causes the elderly to have difficulty in carrying out activities that are burdening the joints of the body. Wet cupping therapy is a complementary therapy that has a working principle of vacuum, injury and blood-sucking in certain areas so it can cure the disease. This study was to identify the effect of cupping therapy on pain intensity in elderly patients with arthralgia in Bangsalsari Jember. It was a quasy experiment research with pretest-posttest with control group approach. The sample in this study was 30 elderly then divided into two groups, i.e. 15 elderly in the wet cupping therapy group and 15 elderly in the warm compress group. It used purposive sampling. The average pain intensity before moist cupping therapy was 7.47, and after wet cupping therapy 5.53. While the moderate pain intensity before warm compress was 7.00 and after warm compress 5.73. Wilcoxon test results moist cupping therapy obtained P-value 0.001 means there are significant differences before and after the wet cupping therapy. While Wilcoxon test results, warm compress got P-value 0.001 means there are substantial differences before and after the warm compress. Mann Whitney test result obtained P-value 0.383 means there is no significant difference of effect between the treatment group and the control group.
