Abstract

Hypothermia often occurs during Caesarean section surgery due to the effects of anesthesia and room temperature. Therefore, a Blanket Warmer is necessary to increase the patient's body temperature. Objective: To determine the effect of Blanket Warmer use on body temperature increase in post-Caesarean section patients in the Recovery Room of the Central Surgical Installation of Dr. M.M. Dunda Limboto Regional Hospital. This study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest. Purposive sampling was used to select 23 respondents. This design involved two observations: before and after the experiment. Results: This study showed a p-value of 0.000 (p<0.05), indicating a significant effect, with an average value of 54.62 before and 67.69 after. It can be concluded that the use of a Blanket Warmer has an effect on increasing body temperature in post-Caesarean Section patients. Conclusion: Therefore, the use of a blanket warmer is essential to increase the body temperature of post-Caesarean Section patients who experience hypothermia while in the Recovery Room.

Abstract

Constipation is an elimination problem that often occurs in stroke patients due to neurological disorders, immobilization, and a low-fiber diet. This condition can decrease comfort, hinder recovery, and trigger complications such as fecal impaction. Warm abdominal compresses are a nonpharmacological intervention that can improve intestinal motility. Objective: To determine the effect of abdominal compresses on the rate of constipation in stroke patients. Methods: This study used a pre-experimental design with a one group pretest-posttest design approach. The sample consisted of 15 stroke patients who were selected using accidental sampling techniques in the Neuro Room of Prof. Dr. Aloei Saboe Gorontalo Hospital. The intervention was in the form of abdominal compresses with Warm Water Zak at 40–50°C for 20 minutes every day for three days. The level of constipation was measured using the Constipation Assessment Scale (CAS). The normality test used the Shapiro-Wilk test and the statistical analysis used the Wilcoxon test. Results: After a warm compress intervention in the abdomen for 3 days, the category of non-constipation increased from 0 respondents (0%) to 2 respondents (11.8%), mild constipation of 2 respondents (11.8%) increased to 11 respondents (64.7%), moderate constipation of 10 respondents (58.8%) decreased to 2 respondents (17.6%), and severe constipation of 4 respondents (29.4%) decreased to 2 respondents (5.9%). The Wilcoxon test showed a value of p = 0.000 (p< 0.05), indicating a significant effect of abdominal compression on the reduction of constipation. Conclusion: Abdominal compresses are effective in lowering the rate of constipation in stroke patients. This intervention is safe, easy to implement, and can be recommended as a nonpharmacological nursing measure to improve elimination function in stroke patients.
