Beneficial effect of isometric device therapy in overcoming sprain injuries in the ankle due to sports using the arduino uno pro mini and load cell device design (Efecto beneficioso de la terapia con dispositivos isométricos en la superación de las lesio

Abstract

This study aims to create an isometric exercise therapy tool in overcoming sprain injuries on the digital-based ankle that is valid, reliable, practical, effective and efficient. This type of research uses a Research and Development design, this research involves 3 experts who are competent in their fields, namely instrumentation physicists, exercise physiologists, and physiotherapists. A total of 30 men who were selected using the Purposive Sampling technique with ages ranging from 20 to 28 years and had sprain injuries in the ankle participated in this study. The testing of the tool was carried out using a questionnaire, test and retest. Statistical analysis of the data used is r-correlation. The results of the reliability test of the alpha coefficient, the results of the first day and the second day have a "high" correlation. The results of the product practicality test by the three experts show the product has a "very good" level of practicality, and the results of the product effectiveness test are obtained with an effectiveness level of "very good". Therefore, design an isometric therapy device for ankle sprain injuries due to sports using Arduino Uno and load cells which are effective for treating sprain injuries. 
 Resumen. Este estudio tiene como objetivo crear una herramienta de terapia de ejercicio isométrica para superar las lesiones por esguince en el tobillo digital que sea válida, confiable, práctica, efectiva y eficiente. Este tipo de investigación utiliza un diseño de Investigación y Desarrollo, esta investigación involucra a 3 expertos que son competentes en sus campos, a saber, físicos de instrumentación, fisiólogos del ejercicio y fisioterapeutas. En este estudio participaron un total de 30 hombres que fueron seleccionados mediante la técnica de muestreo intencional con edades comprendidas entre los 20 y los 28 años y que tenían lesiones por esguince de tobillo. La prueba de la herramienta se realizó mediante un cuestionario, prueba y reprueba. El análisis estadístico de los datos utilizados es la correlación r. Los resultados de la prueba de confiabilidad del coeficiente alfa, los resultados del primer día y el segundo día tienen una correlación "alta". Los resultados de la prueba de practicidad del producto realizada por los tres expertos muestran que el producto tiene un nivel de practicidad "muy bueno", y los resultados de la prueba de efectividad del producto se obtienen con un nivel de efectividad de "muy bueno". Por lo tanto, diseñe un dispositivo de terapia isométrica para las lesiones por esguince de tobillo debido a los deportes utilizando Arduino Uno y células de carga que sean efectivas para tratar las lesiones por esguince.

Comparative Analysis of Adaptations Progress in VO2max, Leg Power, and Agility among Male and Female Sports Science Students

“…leg power, and agility in male and female sports science students. Recent research emphasizes the multifaceted benefits of regular physical exercise or physical conditioning, including not only physical health condition improvements but also cognitive function, mental well-being, and longevity (Arnando et al, 2023;Dimyati, Setiawati, et al, 2023;Edmizal et al, 2023;Komaini, Anton;Saputra, Aidil;Syafrianto, Donal;Gusril;Syamsuar;Ayubi, 2022). This study demonstrates that there is a significant effect on VO2max and leg power after an 8-week strength and conditioning program.…”

Design of sensor-based bilateral leg muscle circumference balance testing tool for athletes

“…Studies (Toro et al 2019) [18] found that the use of sensor technology provided valid results in detecting fatigue. In addition, our previous research reported that designing an isometric therapy device for sportsrelated ankle sprain injuries using Arduino Uno and a load cell was effective in treating sprain injuries [5]. The main results of our research show that the sensorbased design of a bilateral leg muscle circumference balance device for athletes is effective for use as a balance measurement tool.…”

“…Instability of a joint will cause the surrounding structures to be easily injured, especially if the elasticity and strength of the tissues supporting and moving the joint are inadequate [3,4]. If an injury is not treated immediately it will result in a more serious injury [5]. Based on information data that has been obtained related to the sport of football, a study reported that during the 2014 FI-FA World Cup in Brazil, a total of 104 injuries were recorded, which is equivalent to 58 injuries per 1000 matches [6].…”

Validity Test of Hamstring Muscle Strength Test for Handball Athletes

“…In the position athletes can also measure ability according to the capacity of muscle strength of each individual. But, athletes have a greater risk of injury compared to ordinary people (Firmansyah et al, 2023;Komaini et al, 2022) A literature review showed that a history of hamstring injuries was a significant risk factor for injuries to the hamstring and ligaments (Harding et al, 2020), but that previous injuries were also a strong risk factor when athletes returned to the field (Mcintyre et al, 2020a;Warren et al, 2010).…”
