Validation of Muscle and Nerve in Anatomical Terminologies for Traditional Malay Massage Techniques on Stroke Rehabilitation
- Abstract:
- Introduction: The involvement of specific muscles and nerves in Traditional Malay Massage (TMM) techniques has shown to have a causal effect on body function, especially for stroke patients. Anatomical knowledge supporting the understanding and communication of TMM techniques should be explored and learnt. The study aimed to validate the anatomical terminologies involved in TMM technique for stroke condition.
- Methods: The body parts of stroke patient that are involved in TMM were triangulated through qualitative techniques and validated through a quantitative approach. The data was triangulated from: 1) interview, 2) observation, and 3) document. Two TMM practitioners, one male stroke patient and two male workshop participants were involved during the interviews and observation. For document analysis, two types of documents related to: 1) Malay's anatomical terms in TMM for stroke, and 2) anatomy in medical terminology were selected. These documents were utilised to translate anatomical terms in the Malay language into medical terms. The images from all the documents were compared and reconciled among the researchers. Eight experts conducted content validation on the extracted anatomical terms in Malay that were tabulated side by side with the English terms.
- Results: The muscle and nerves were identified, translated and categorised based on the six sections during the step-by-step TMM procedure. Fifty-five of body parts were coded as content validation items and they produced an overall high validity index.
- Conclusion: This study documented the validated anatomical terminologies of TMM for stroke condition that used in our published e-book on stroke management, available at: https://heyzine.com/flip-book/4f42d210ec.html.
