Abstract

Arthritis Gout is a metabolic disease in which the body cannot uric acid resulting in a lot of uric acid which causes joint pain and is often experienced by most of the elderly. Various pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments were carried out to reduce uric acid levels. Arthritis Gout can be intervened with non-pharmacological therapies, including ergonomic exercise. Ergonomic gymnastics is a muscle movement combined with breathing techniques. Objective: This study aimed to identify the effect of ergonomic gymnastics on uric acid levels in people with arthritis gout in the working area of the Public Health Care Center of Penimbung, Penimbung Village. This research is a Pre-experimental study with a one-group pretest-posttest Design. Sampling techniques used purposive sampling. There were 16 elderly people as samples. Data analysis was a paired t-test to investigate the effect of ergonomic gymnastics before and after the therapy. Result: The results showed that ergonomic exercise can reduce uric acid levels in the elderly with arthritis gout where the value=0.000. It is recommended that elderly people who suffer from gouty arthritis do ergonomic exercises at least once a month to reduce uric acid levels.

 

ABSTRAK

Gout arthritis merupakan penyakit metabolik dimana tubuh tidak mampu mengontrol asam urat sehingga terjadi penumpukan asam urat yang dapat mengakibatkan nyeri pada persendian  dan sering dialami oleh sebagian besar lansia. Pengobatan farmakologi dan non farmakologi dilakukan untuk dapat menurunkan kadar asam urat. Penatalaksanaan gout arthritis dengan terapi non farmakologi dapat dilakukan dengan senam ergonomis. Senam ergonomis merupakan rangkaian gerakan otot yang dikombinasikan dengan tehnik pernapasan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi pengaruh senam ergonomis terhadap penurunan kadar asam urat pada penderita gout arthritis diwilayah kerja Puskesmas Penimbung Desa Penimbung. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Pre Experimental dengan rancangan One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan purposive sampling dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 16 orang. Analisa data disajikan dalam bentuk distribusi frekuensi dan analisis bivariat  yang dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji statistik paired t-test. Hasil: ada pengaruh senam ergonomis terhadap kadar asam urat pada penderita gout arthritis dengan nilai p=0.000. Disarankan agar lansia yang menderita gout arthritis dapat melakukan senam ergonomik minimal 1x sebulan untuk menurunkan kadar asam urat.
