Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the results of giving microwave diathermy (MWD), transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), and exercise therapy in the elderly with osteoarthritis and whether physiotherapy can reduce pain due to osteoarthritis. In a case study of elderly people aged 60 years with osteoarthritis dextra, therapy was carried out three times a week for 4 weeks, with measurements using the numeric rating scale and muscle strength measurements with manual muscle testing (MMT). Management of MWD for 15 minutes, TENS for 20 minutes, and exercise therapy for 8 times 2 sets. Symptoms experienced during physiotherapies such as pain when walking and squatting movements are reduced and patient complaints decrease which indicates a decrease in pain level and an increase in ROM. Physiotherapy with MWD, TENS and exercise therapy modalities can reduce pain and increase ROM in the elderly with cases of osteoarthritis.
