Abstract

Gout arthritis, or uric acid, is a disease that affects the joint system, caused by factors such as age, gender, medical history, and obesity. A warm compress using moringa leaves, which contain low molecular weight flavonoids, allows the compounds to easily dissolve in water and be absorbed by the skin's pores. This can lead to vasodilation (expansion of blood vessels), which improves blood flow to the painful areas of the body. The aim of this study was to reduce pain experienced after health education and demonstration. Method the research used a case study method with two respondents in the Kota Uneng Subdistrict. The results from the case study showed that the application of warm moringa leaf compresses for 4 days successfully reduced pain in both patients with gout arthritis. Both clients were able to control their pain and independently perform the moringa leaf warm compress therapy. Therefore, the warm compress therapy with moringa leaves has been proven effective in reducing pain in gout arthritis patients.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by hyperglycemia due to the body’s inability to metabolize carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. High blood glucose levels are a major cause of diabetes mellitus-related complications. Diabetes mellitus can be controlled through non-pharmacological therapies, including autogenic relaxation therapy. Autogenic relaxation therapy is one intervention that may help reduce blood glucose levels. Objective: To implement family nursing care with autogenic relaxation therapy in patients with diabetes mellitus. Method: This study used a descriptive design with a case study approach, including pretest and posttest measurements of blood glucose levels. Data were collected through interviews, observation, physical examination, and documentation review. Results: The intervention resulted in decreased blood glucose levels in both clients after autogenic relaxation therapy was administered for 3 days, twice daily (morning and evening), for 15 minutes per session. In Case Study Subject I, blood glucose decreased from 228 mg/dL to 174 mg/dL, while in Case Study Subject II it decreased from 376 mg/dL to 200 mg/dL. Conclusion: The application of autogenic relaxation therapy was associated with a reduction in blood glucose levels.
