THE EFFECTIVENESS OF "FLASH CARD" IN IMPROVING MOTHERS' KNOWLEDGE ON PREGNANCY
Get PDFBackground: The government has been supporting expecting mothers by providing pregnancy education courses in order to improve the quality of mother and child health and to reduce maternal mortality rate (MMR) and infant mortality rate (IMR).

This study was conducted from January to September 2016 with a population of 40 pregnant women and sampling by means of accidental sampling with 10 respondent. The research was designed by using Quasi-Experiment Wilcoxon statistical techniques.
Results: From Wilcoxon test, the results demonstrate a level of knowledge in the control group with a score of 0.59 sig (p>0.05). In the treatment group sig 0.05 (p>0.005) indicates a significant difference between the group using flip charts and the flash card group. From the Mann-Whitney test, the results yield sig 0.002 (p>0.005) which shows that flash card proved to increase the level of knowledge of pregnancy.
Conclusion: Counselling using a flash card is an effective method to educate the expecting mothers to better understand the knowledge of pregnancy health

SHOULDER FLEXIBILITY IN COLOR GUARD PLAYER FOLLOWING POSTERIOR SHOULDER STRETCHING AND MUSCLE ENERGY TECHNIQUE
Get PDFBackground: Color guard players often exhibited loss of glenohumeral joint range of motion (ROM) in internal rotation which has been associated with shoulder pathology. Current stretching protocols aimed at improving flexibility of the posterior shoulder have resulted in different outcomes and previous studies have not been discussed color guard players for the subject.
Aims: This study was to determine the differences effects between non assisted posterior shoulder stretching (NAPSS) and muscle energy technique (MET) to increase internal rotation ROM of glenohumeral joint of the color guard marching band.
Methods: This study is experimental pre test and post test two group design, the subjects are 18 color guard players. The subjects were divided into 2 groups that 9 subjects in group I treated NAPSS and 9 subjects in group II treated MET. The treatment was given for 5 times per week in 2 weeks. This study used goniometer for measuring internal rotation ROM. Saphiro Wilk test for the normality test. Paired sample T-test to determine increasing of internal rotation ROM for group I and group II. Independent sample T-test to determine the differences effect between group I and group II.
Result: The result of paired sample T-test is p=0.001 (p< 0.05) in group I and p=0.001 (p< 0.05) in group II which exhibited that there is an effect the treatment of both posterior shoulder stretching and muscle energy technique to increase internal rotation ROM. The result of Independent sample T-test is p=0.084 (p >0.05) indicated that there is no different effect between posterior shoulder stretching and muscle energy technique.
Conclusion: NAPSS and MET were capable of significantly increasing internal rotation ROM of glenohumeral joint and no different effects between the methods. Both methods can be used as stretching program before marching band exercise.
