Abstract

Innovations can be applied in hospitals for exercise muscle can help to prevent and reduce muscle spasms in patients. The research objectives to develop innovation of multi–purpose stretcher machine for stretching muscles of arms and shoulders to increase relaxation. This study was quasi-experimental research for sample size included 40 patients with myofascial pain syndrome. The data collection tools consisted of an innovative multi-purpose stretcher such as Goniometer, questionnaire for myofascial pain syndrome and clinical treatment evaluation. The experimental results were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Paired Simple t-test to compare results before and after the experiment of subjects pain scale, the degree of range of motion for extension and abduction in the shoulder joint.

     Results: Before the experiment mean muscle pain scale was 7.5 points and after the experiment the mean muscle pain scale was 3.05 points. When compared, the mean difference in arm and shoulder pain scores decreased was 4.45 points. The difference of the mean degree of movement in extension and abduction of the shoulder joint was 7.05, 10.95 degrees, respectively. Moreover, mean score of overall satisfaction with the use of the multi-purpose stretcher machine in the experimental group was 4.59 score.  New innovation can be applied in hospitals for exercise and stretching the muscles to be strengthened. and alternative for people to primary health care.
