“…The results were significant after 1 week of treatment. [25] The fourth trial concerned with the prevention of PHN and was discussed before. [43] Results of these previous studies supported the findings of the current study, which make TENS a preferable, noninvasive, affordable modality with no side effects more than medications and other invasive modalities.…”

“…The distance of the skin to the source of heat is vertically 60 to 75 cm, while the patient in prone lying position, for 15 minutes. [25] Then 5 minutes passive stretching exercises for the hamstring while the patient in supine lying position with sustained time of stretching to about 6 seconds. Moreover, all patients received the same medical care (Carbamazepine tablets, Tegretol CR 200, Novartis, Egypt).…”

Objectives: To compare the efficacy of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMFT) versus transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) in the treatment of post-herpetic neuralgia of the sciatic nerve.Methods: A double-blinded randomized clinical study has included 56 patients (18 males and 38 females). Participants were randomly and equally assigned into 2 groups. Both groups received conventional physical therapy treatment. Moreover, group (A) has an additional TENS, and group (B) had PEMFT. Both modalities were applied once daily, 3 times a week for 20 minutes for 8 successive weeks. Visual analog scale (VAS) and carbamazepine intake (CMI) dose have been assessed before and after interventions.Results: There was a significant decrease in VAS and CMI post-treatment in group A and B compared with that pretreatment (P > .001). The percent decrease in VAS and CMI in group A were 72.44% and 69.47% respectively and that for group B was 68.95% and 67.94% respectively. The findings revealed a non-significant difference in VAS and CMI (P > .05) between groups. The Means of VAS and CMI were (2.4 ± 0.78, 204.5 ± 16.76 and 2.67 ± 0.9, 210.57 ± 16.5) in group A and group B respectively. The mean difference for VAS and CMI was (−0.27 and −6.07) between groups post-treatment respectively. Conclusion:Both TENS and PEMFT were effective and nearly equivalent in improving the post-herpetic neuralgia of the sciatic nerve as measured by in VAS and CMI. Clinical recommendations should be highlighted to instigate the using of TENS and PEMFT in the management of post-herpetic neuralgia of the sciatic nerve.Abbreviations: CMI = carbamazepine intake, HZ = herpes zoster, PEMFT = pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, PHN = post herpetic neuralgia, TENS = transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, VAS = visual analog scale, VZV = varicella zoster virus.

“…Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mendesain dan membuat infrared theraphy yang digunakan untuk menganalisis tegangan otot pasien baik sesudah maupun sebelum terapi sehingga dapat diketahui efek dari penyinaran yang sudah dilakukan kepada pasien II. PENELITIAN TERKAIT Terapi terdapat beberapa jenis, namun terapi yang sering digunakan adalah terapi sinar inframerah, terapi inframerah memanfaatkan radiasi dari gelombang elektromagnetik yang dipancarkan [15], [16], [17], [18]. Terapi sinar inframerah merupakan salah satu metode untuk menghilangkan rasa pegalpegal dan nyeri pada otot.…”

Tangan adalah salah satu bagian tubuh manusia yang sering digunakan. Aktivitas berlebihan bisa menjadikan otot pada tubuh manusia mengalami kelelahan sehingga mengakibatkan nyeri. Penyembuhan nyeri otot bisa dilakukan menggunakan salah satu alat medis yaitu therapy infrared. Terapi infrared adalah penyinaran lampu pijar inframerah ke bagian tubuh yang menembus bagian kulit sehingga dapat melancarkan peredaran darah. Penggunaan metode VAS sebagai nilai indikator tingkat nyeri. Metode ini dilakukan dengan uji coba ke pasien di RSUD Jombang. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan 3 percobaan yaitu pasien diminta untuk melakukan handgrip 10, 20 dan 30 kali, dan masing-masing akan diukur tegangan sensor ototnya baik sesudah disinari infrared maupun sebelum disinari, sehingga dihasilkan data sebagai berikut : jika memakai 10 handgrip terjadi penurunan tegangan otot dari 250,784 mV menjadi 240,833 mV, jika pasien memakai 20 handgrip dihasilkan penurunan tegangan otot dari 255,375 mV menjadi 246,94 mV dan percobaan memakai 30 handgrip dihasilkan penurunan tegangan dari 278,026 mV menjadi 264,566 mV, sehingga terdapat hasil yang signifikan antara sebelum dan sesudah penyinaran inframerah

Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common knee pain complaint. Non pharmacological therapy, including microwave diathermy therapy (MWD) and infra red therapy (IR) is one of the treatment options. Both work in tissue repair, increase metabolic processes, and reduces inflammation in knee OA by electromagnetic radiation hyperthermia. The purpose of this literature review was to analyze comparison of the effectiveness of MWD and IR in reducing pain intensity in knee OA patients. The data were collected by analyzing literature from several databases, namely PubMed-NCBI, ProQuest, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. The criteria for inclusion of articles are articles in English and Indonesian in research published in 2011–2021. In this literature review, 8 articles were used. According to the findings of the review, MWD and IR were both effective in reducing pain in knee OA patients. Three of the five MWD articles showed that reducing pain intensity of knee OA was more effective. Two of the three IR articles showed that reducing pain intensity of knee OA was more effective. It may be concluded that IR therapy is better than MWD therapy in reducing pain knee OA based on the average score of pain parameters using VAS before and after therapy. Keywords: effect, microwave diathermy, infra red, pain, knee osteoarthritis Abstrak: Osteoartritis lutut (OA) adalah keluhan nyeri lutut yang paling umum. Salah satu pengobatan yang dapat dilakukan adalah terapi non farmakologi yaitu terapi microwave diathermy (MWD) dan terapi infra red (IR). Keduanya memiliki kesamaan dalam hipertermia radiasi elektromagnetik, dan berfungsi perbaikan jaringan, peningkatan proses metabolisme, dan pengurangan inflamasi OA lutut. Tujuan Literature review ini untuk membandingkan efektivitas MWD dan IR dalam mengurangi intensitas nyeri pada pasien OA lutut. Penulisan dilakukan dengan menganalisis literatur dari beberapa database jurnal kedokteran elektronik, yaitu: PubMed-NCBI, ProQuest, Science Direct dan Google Scholar. Kriteria pencantuman artikel adalah artikel berbahasa Inggris dan Indonesia dalam penelitian yang diterbitkan tahun 2011–2021. Ada 8 artikel yang digunakan dalam literature review ini. Hasil tinjauan menemukan bahwa MWD dan IR keduanya efektif dalam mengurangi rasa nyeri pada pasien OA lutut. Tiga dari lima artikel MWD menunjukkan hasil yang lebih efektif dalam mengurangi intensitas nyeri OA lutut. Dua dari tiga artikel IR menunjukkan hasil yang lebih efektif dalam mengurangi intensitas nyeri OA lutut. Berdasarkan dari rata-rata skor parameter nyeri dengan VAS sebelum dan sesudah terapi, dapat disimpulkan bahwa pemberian terapi IR lebih baik daripada pemberian terapi MWD terhadap pengurangan nyeri OA lutut. Kata-kata kunci: effect, microwave diathermy, infra red, pain, knee osteoarthritis
