Lumbar Herniated Nucleus Pulposus (HNP) is a primary cause of low back pain that can significantly reduce the quality of life of sufferers. Body mass index (BMI) is a risk factor influencing pain intensity in HNP patients, as increased BMI can cause additional mechanical stress on the lumbar spine, alter posture, and exacerbate pain. This study aimed to determine the relationship between BMI and pain intensity in patients with lumbar HNP at Budhi Asih General Hospital. An analytical observational research method with a cross-sectional approach was employed, involving 54 patients. BMI was categorized according to WHO criteria, while pain intensity was measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Data analysis using the Chi-Square test revealed a significant relationship between BMI and pain intensity in patients with lumbar HNP (P < 0.029). These findings suggest that obesity exacerbates pain in HNP patients. In conclusion, a significant relationship exists between BMI and pain intensity in lumbar HNP patients, and weight control through a healthy lifestyle and appropriate rehabilitation programs is expected to reduce pain intensity and improve patients quality of life.

The study concluded that there is a significant relationship between body mass index (BMI) and pain intensity in patients with lumbar herniated nucleus pulposus (HNP).The majority of patients included in the study were in the adult to elderly age group and female.Obesity was the most common BMI category among the participants.These findings emphasize the importance of weight management as a component of clinical care to reduce pain severity and improve patient outcomes.

Penelitian lebih lanjut perlu dilakukan untuk mengeksplorasi mekanisme biologis yang mendasari hubungan antara BMI dan intensitas nyeri pada pasien HNP, misalnya dengan mengukur kadar sitokin inflamasi dan menilai dampaknya terhadap persepsi nyeri. Selain itu, studi intervensi yang melibatkan program penurunan berat badan yang terstruktur dan rehabilitasi yang dipersonalisasi perlu dilakukan untuk menguji efektivitasnya dalam mengurangi nyeri dan meningkatkan kualitas hidup pasien HNP. Penelitian prospektif dengan ukuran sampel yang lebih besar dan periode tindak lanjut yang lebih lama juga diperlukan untuk mengkonfirmasi temuan ini dan mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor lain yang mungkin memengaruhi hubungan antara BMI dan nyeri pada pasien HNP, termasuk faktor genetik dan gaya hidup. Studi ini diharapkan dapat memberikan dasar bagi pengembangan strategi pencegahan dan penanganan HNP yang lebih komprehensif dan efektif.
