Low back pain (LBP) merupakan sebuah sindrom klinis ditandai dengan timbulnya gejala nyeri di sekitar punggung bawah yang tanpa atau dapat disertai penjalaran pada tungkai bawah. Posisi tidak ergonomis seperti membungkuk, memiringkan badan, dan posisi menggapai atau berlutut yang dapat menyebabkan beberapa dampak, salah satunya LBP. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menganalisis hubungan postur tubuh dan lama berdiri dengan kejadian LBP pada pekerja bidang produksi dan logistik di Cikarang. Penelitian ini menggunakan analitik observasional dengan desain penelitian potong lintang karena membahas dua variabel (independen dan dependen) selanjutnya diobservasi atau diukur hanya sekali pada setiap variabel dalam waktu yang sama. Sampel penelitian berjenis kelamin lakilaki, berjumlah 62 responden, berusia 18-40 tahun dengan kata lain termasuk kriteria inklusi dan teknik pengambilan sampel berupa simple random sampling. Analisis postur tubuh menggunakan Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA), untuk lokasi serta pengukuran intensitas nyeri LBP menggunakan kuesioner Nordic Body Map (NBM) dan Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), analisis bersifat kuantitatif karena didasarkan pada skala yang tersedia pada kategori setiap instrumen penelitian. Hasil uji Fisher hubungan postur tubuh dengan kejadian LBP diperoleh nilai signifikansi p=1,000 (p> 0,05) dan untuk lama berdiri dengan kejadian LBP didapatkan nilai signifikansi p=0,067 (p> 0,05). Kesimpulan hasil tersebut tidak terdapat hubungan antara postur tubuh dan lama berdiri dengan kejadian LBP pada pekerja. Hal ini dapat dipengaruhi usia pekerja yang dominan termasuk kategori usia produktif sehingga sifat fisiologis otot masih sangat menunjang produktivitas kerja. Selain itu disela-sela kegiatan, para pekerja dapat leluasa melakukan peregangan minimal pada tubuhnya sehingga kekakuan pada otot di sekitar punggung bawah dapat dihindari.

Context: A simulated horseback riding (SHR) exercise is effective for improvement of pain and functional disability, but its comparative effectiveness with the other is unknown. Objective: The authors aimed to demonstrate the effect of a SHR exercise in people with chronic low back pain. Design: A randomized controlled trial. Settings: Community and university campus. Participants: A total of 48 participants with chronic low back pain were divided into 2 groups, and SHR exercises (n = 24) or stabilization (STB) exercises (n = 24) were performed. Interventions: The exercises were performed for 30 minutes, 2 days per week for 8 weeks. Main Outcome Measures: Numeric rating scale, functional disabilities (Oswestry disability index and Roland–Morris disability), and fear-avoidance beliefs questionnaire (FABQ) scores were measured at baseline and at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 6 months. Results: A 2-way repeated analysis of variance identified that between-group comparisons showed significant differences in the FABQ related to work scale (F = 21.422; P = .01). There were no significant differences in the numeric rating scale (F = 1.696; P = .21), Oswestry disability index (F = 1.848; P = .20), Roland–Morris disability (F = 0.069; P = .80), and FABQ related to physical scale (F = 1.579; P = .24). In within-group comparisons, both groups presented significant differences in numeric rating scale (both SHR and STB after 4 wk), Oswestry disability index (both SHR and STB after 6 mo), and Roland–Morris disability (SHR after 6 mo and STB after 8 wk) compared with baseline values. In FABQ-related physical (SHR after 4 wk) and work scales (SHR after 6 mo), there were only significant differences in the SHR compared with baseline values. Conclusions: SHR exercise for 8 weeks had a greater effect than STB exercise for reducing work-related FABQ. The SHR exercise performed in a seated position could substantially decrease pain-related fear disability in young adults with chronic low back pain.

Low Back pain (LBP) merupakan sindroma klinis yang ditandai dengan nyeri pada regio punggung bawah dengan atau tanpa disertai nyeri tungkai. Pembatik berisiko mengalami LBP. McKenzie Exercise dan William’s Flexion Exercise merupakan back exercise yang mudah dilakukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan membandingkan efektivitas McKenzie Exercise dan William‘s Flexion Exercise untuk menurunkan intensitas LBP pada pembatik. Penelitian menggunakan two-group pretest-posttest design. Sebanyak 20 orang pembatik di Kampung Batik Giriloyo dipilih dengan teknik purposive sampling. Subjek penelitian dibagi menjadi dua, yaitu kelompok yang melakukan McKenzie Exercise dan kelompok yang melakukan William’s Flexion Exercise. Kedua kelompok melakukan latihan tersebut dengan frekuensi tiga kali seminggu selama dua minggu. Sebelum dan sesudah latihan, intensitas LBP diukur menggunakan Numeric Rating Scale.  Uji Wilcoxon digunakan untuk mengetahui apakah terdapat perbedaan intensitas LBP sebelum dan sesudah latihan. Uji Mann-Whitney digunakan untuk mengetahui apakah terdapat perbedaan efektivitas McKenzie Exercise dan William’s Flexion Exercise  dalam menurunkan intensitas LBP. Analisis data menunjukkan intensitas LBP  pada kedua kelompok sebelum melakukan back exercise adalah 5 (4-6). Pada kelompok yang melakukan McKenzie Exercise maupun kelompok yang melakukan William’s Flexion Exercise didapatkan penurunan intensitas LBP menjadi 2 (1-3). Terdapat perbedaan intensitas LBP sebelum dan sesudah latihan pada kelompok McKenzie Exercise (p = 0,004) dan pada kelompok William Flexion Exercise (p = 0,004). Tidak ada perbedaan penurunan intensitas LBP antara kelompok McKenzie Exercise dan kelompok William’s Flexion Exercise (p = 0,328). Low Back Pain (LBP) is a clinical syndrome that consists of pain at the lower back region with or without limb pain. Batik workers were at risk of LBP. McKenzie Exercise and William’s Flexion Exercise are an easy back exercise. This study was aimed to compare the effectiveness of McKenzie Exercise and William’s Flexion Exercise for reducing LBP among batik workers. This study used a two-group pretest-posttest design. A total of 20 batik workers in Kampung Batik Giriloyo were selected by purposive sampling technique. The research subjects were divided into two, namely the group doing the McKenzie Exercise and the group doing the William’s Flexion Exercise. Both groups did the exercise three times a week for two weeks. Before and after the exercise, the intensity of LBP was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale. The Wilcoxon test was used to determine whether there were differences in LBP intensity before and after exercise. The Mann-Whitney test was used to determine whether there was a difference in the effectiveness of the McKenzie Exercise and William's Flexion Exercise in reducing LBP intensity. Data analysis showed LBP intensity in both groups before doing back exercise was 5 (4-6). In the group that did the McKenzie Exercise and the group that did the William’s Flexion Exercise, the LBP intensity decreased to 2 (1-3). There were differences in LBP intensity before and after exercise in the McKenzie Exercise group (p = 0.004) and the William’s Flexion Exercise group (p = 0.004). There was no difference in the decrease in LBP intensity between the McKenzie Exercise group and the William’s Flexion Exercise group (p = 0.328).

Low back pain (LBP) is one of the most common health complaints in the community. About 80 percent of adults have experienced this condition. This research is a quantitative research with a cross sectional approach. The study was conducted at the Ulos Sianipar Gallery onAugust 2021. The population in this study were all weavers who worked at the Ulos Sianipar Gallery Medan as many as 54 people by using the slovin formula obtained sample of 48 people. Data was collected through a questionnaire, specifically for work attitudes with the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) method, carried out with the help of cameras, bows and worksheets. The results showed that individual factors: age (p=0.003), body mass index (p=0.044) and length of work (p=0.022); work environment factors: work duration (p=0.020) and rest time (p=0.018); and work factors: workload (p=0.001) and work attitude (p=0.001) have a relationship with LBP on weavers at Galeri Ulos Sianipar Medan. It is recommended for business owners to adjust the position of the thread on the weaving machine to the sitting position of the worker so that it does not require the worker to raise his hand higher, the weaver is advised to reduce or avoid awkward postures such as bending over which can cause muscle fatigue due to frequent or repetitive weaving.

Aims: To examine how the choice of words explaining ultrasound (US) may influence the outcome of physiotherapy treatment for low back pain (LBP).Methods: Sixty-seven patients with LBP < 3 months were randomly allocated to one of three groups – traditional education about US (control group [CG]), inflated education about US (experimental group [EG]) or extra-inflated education about US (extra-experimental group [EEG]). Each patient received the exact same application of US that has shown clinical efficacy for LBP (1.5 Watts/cm2 for 10 minutes at 1 Megahertz, pulsed 20% over a 20 cm2 area), but received different explanations (CG, EG or EEG). Before and immediately after US,measurements of LBP and leg pain (numeric rating scale), lumbar flexion (distance to floor) and straight leg raise (SLR) (inclinometer) were taken. Statistical analysis consisted of mixed-factorial analyses of variance and chi-square analyses to measure differences between the three groups, as well as meeting or exceeding minimal detectable changes (MDCs) for pain, lumbar flexion and SLR.Results: Both EG and EEG groups showed a statistically significant improvement for SLR (p < 0.0001), while the CG did not. The EEG group participants were 4.4 times (95% confidence interval: 1.1 to 17.5) more likely to improve beyond the MDC than the CG. No significant differences were found between the groups for LBP, leg pain or lumbar flexion.Conclusion: The choice of words when applying a treatment in physiotherapy can alter the efficacy of the treatment.

LATAR BELAKANG : Selama masa pandemi, pemerintah menetapkan Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar (PSBB) untuk menurunkan kasus infeksi COVID-19 sehingga intensitas kejadian LBP lebih meningkat daripada sebelum karantina yang mencerminkan efek negatif dari peraturan tersebut. Hal tersebut disebabkan karena adanya perubahan gaya hidup yang signifikan seperti waktu yang dihabiskan untuk duduk meningkat, waktu berolahraga yang berkurang, dan persentase individu melaporkan lebih banyak mengalami stress selama karantina daripada sebelum ditetapkan PSBB. Studi saat ini melaporkan dampak nyeri punggung bawah yang mengakibatkan terganggunya status fungsional penderita disebabkan oleh kebutuhan biaya pengobatan setiap tahun dan keterbatasan kunjungan penderita ke layanan kesehatan, sehingga hal tersebut mengindikasikan penderita nyeri punggung bawah perlu dilakukan evaluasi seberapa besar ketidakmampuan fungsional yang terjadi dan faktor yang mempengaruhinya.   TUJUAN :  Untuk mengetahui hubungan intensitas nyeri dengan status fungsional penderita LBP di Poliklinik Saraf RSUP Dr. Wahidin Sudirohosudo. METODE :  Observasi analitik dengan pendekatan cross sectional  dan teknik pengambilan sampel adalah simple random sampling.  Data menggunakan kuesioner Numerical Rating Scale dan Indeks Barthel. Penelitian dilakukan di RSUP Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo selama dua bulan yang dimulai dari Maret 2021 hingga April 2021. HASIL :   Pada hasil analisis data sampel menggunakan uji korelasi kendall's tau-b , didapatkan nilai korelasi (-0,644) dengan nilai kemaknaan hubungan ( p.sig  0,000) menunjukkan korelasi antara intensitas nyeri dengan status fungsional. KESIMPULAN : Intensitas nyeri memiliki hubungan dengan status fungsional penderita Low Back Pain  (LBP) di RSUP Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo. KATA KUNCI  : Nyeri Punggung Bawah , NRS, Indeks Barthel

The metal casting industry, Nitikan is a micro business whose production process is carried out manually. The equipment used is simple and without considering the user's health. This can be seen in the product finishing process that uses a sanding machine. The equipment is not designed according to the user's posture so the operator bends in doing work movements, of course this is very risky to experience lower back pain injuries. This study aims to analyze the work activities of the finishing process using the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) and Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) approach and design work tools that can be applied to improve work posture. The results of data processing and analysis obtained a Rapid Entire Body Assessment score on a sandpaper machine single head of 5 and a Rapid Upper Limb Assessment score of 4, the score indicates that the work position has the potential to experience a risk of low back pain, so there must be an improvement in work posture. Work posture improvement is done by designing a tool in the form of a sandpaper machine that takes into account ergonomic dimensions to reduce the risk of lower back injury. The final result after the improvement is obtained Rapid Entire Body Assessment score of 3 and Rapid Upper Limb Assessment score of 4. This shows that the risk of lower back injuries can be minimized.

Introduction Low back pain and comorbid afflictions influence negatively on the quality of life, postural control and gait. Facet joint syndrome is one of the causes of low back pain. Cryoablation is a minimal invasive percutaneuous technique for zygapophysial joint syndrome. Aim The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of the cryoablation in patients with chronic low back pain on pain, disability and spatiotemporal gait parameters in the course of facet joint syndrome. Material and methods The study included 19 patients (13 women, 7 men) with chronic low back and facet arthropathic changes in MRI, and with failure in conservative treatment. The evaluation was performed before and with one-month follow-up after cryoablation and included pain assessment (Numeric Rating Scale), the evaluation of functional state and disability (Revised Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Index, Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire) and an analysis of spatiotemporal gait parameters (treadmill). Results A significant improvement in pain, functioning and spatiotemporal gait parameters such as distance and the number of steps were found. Conclusions Cryoablation is an effective method for pain reduction in facet joint syndrome, which improves functioning and gait. Cryoanalgesia is a safe procedure for the treatment of low back pain related to facet joint syndrome if earlier conservative management failed. Keywords: cryoablation, low back pain, functional assessment, gait

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Low Back Pain (LBP) is considered as the second leading source of musculoskeletal disorders, affecting 85% individuals worldwide at some point in their life time. Numerous studies estimated Occupational Therapists have predominant risk of developing LBP due to nature of their daily activities therefore the aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of lumbar stabilizing exercises among Occupational Therapists with non specific LBP. METHODOLOGY A single blind, RCT was conducted at Dr. Ziauddin Hospital included 30 Occupational Therapists divided in to Group A and B that received lumbar stabilization and general extension exercises respectively. Both the groups received 4 weeks of intervention on 6 days/week. Data was collected Pre and Post the treatment on Numeric Rating Scale and Oswestry LBP Disability Questionnaire. RESULTS Both the groups showed significant results (p<0.05), however Group A showed marked reduction in pain and disability in comparison to Group B that showed moderate decrease in both outcome measures. CONCLUSION Lumbar stabilization exercises are more effective to reduce LBP as compared to general extension exercises. Multi-center trials are recommended in the management of LBP in healthcare professionals to prevent musculoskeletal disorders.
