Abstract This is a descriptive cross-sectional study designed to analyze the prevalence and severity of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) in addition to its association with clinical, biochemical, and imaging variables in a cohort of patients with acromegaly. Data collection was performed by entering them in our database and we subsequently analyzed in the SPSS system. Of the 71 patients registered with acromegaly, 68 met the inclusion criteria. Among the results, 97.8% presented CTS evidenced by electroconduction. Of these, 43 (63.1%) showed moderate involvement, followed by 17 severe cases (25%) and 6 mild cases (8.8%). The level of GH in serum, the years of delay in diagnosis, and the size of the adenoma were related to the presence and severity of CTS (p less than 0.05). The multivariate analysis showed that severe grade had a significant association with these variables compared with moderate and mild grade.

ABSTRAK Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) merupakan salah satu gangguan pada lengan tangan akibat penyempitan terowongan karpal sehingga terjadi penekanan terhadap nervus medianus. Gerakan tangan saat menggunakan keyboard dan mouse dalam bermain game online memiliki tingkat repetisi tinggi pada jari tangan sehingga dapat berpengaruh terhadap kejadian CTS. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui proporsi dan faktor risiko CTS pada siswa SMA pemain game online di Kota Denpasar. Penelitian kuantitatif analitik dengan rancangan cross-sectional study. Responden berjumlah 70 siswa dengan teknik pengambilan sampel purposive sampling. Hasil menunjukan proporsi CTS responden sebesar 31,43% dengan kategori ringan. Seluruh variabel karakteristik individu yang mencakup usia (p=0,25) dan jenis kelamin (p=0,50) tidak memiliki hubungan yang bermakna dengan kejadian CTS, sedangkan variabel pola bermain, perangkat bermain, dan repetitive motion (p=0,00) terbukti memiliki hubungan bermakna dengan kejadian CTS. Pola bermain merupakan faktor risiko yang paling berpengaruh terhadap kejadian CTS pada siswa pemain game online dengan OR= 23,74. Oleh karena itu diperlukan adanya dukungan pemerintah berupa program preventif - rehabilitatif bagi pecandu game untuk mengedukasi siswa dan orangtua terkait dampak game online.   Kata Kunci: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Siswa, Game Online
