Abstract

Background: Joint pain is a common complaint experienced by many people, especially the elderly. One of the non-pharmacological methods that can be used to reduce pain is warm water compress therapy using cinnamon powder (Cinnamomum). This compress provides a warming effect that can decrease muscle spasms, improve blood circulation, and help suppress the inflammatory response in the joint area. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of a warm water compress with cinnamon powder (Cinnamomum) on changes in the pain scale of gout arthritis among the elderly at Bukit Selabu Sekayu Public Health Center. Methods This research used a pre-experimental design with a One Group Pre-Test Post-Test approach. The sample consisted of 35 elderly respondents, selected through total sampling. The research instruments included the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for administering the warm water compress with cinnamon powder and an observation sheet using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Results : The findings showed that the mean pain score before the intervention was 4.63 (moderate pain category), and after the warm water compress with cinnamon powder was applied, it decreased to 1.97 (mild pain category). The statistical test obtained a p-value = 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference between pre- and post-intervention. A 2.66-point reduction on the NRS was considered clinically meaningful, showing that this therapy effectively reduced joint pain in the elderly. Conclusion: The application of a warm water compress with cinnamon powder (Cinnamomum) was proven to be statistically and clinically effective in reducing joint pain levels among elderly patients with gout arthritis. This therapy can serve as a safe and practical non-pharmacological alternative that can be applied in primary health care services.

Abstract

Latar Belakang : Infeksi Saluran Pernafasan Akut (ISPA) Biasanya akan terjadi pada 14 hari dengan gejala yang sering muncul seperti demam, batuk, pilek, sakit kepala, sakit tenggorokan, keluarnya cairan berlebihan dan kehilangan nafsu makan. Kebiasaan manusia yang sering mengabaikan kejadian ini, padahal infeksi akibat virus dan bakteri dapat dengan cepat menumpuk di saluran pernapasan. Terapi non farmakologi yakni pemberiaan terapi batuk efektif, memudahkan pasien untuk mengeluarkan dahak,memperbanyak istirahat dan konsumsi air putih untuk mengencerkan dahak agar lebih mudah untuk dikeluarkan.Tujuan :untuk mengetahui penerapan latihan batuk efektif pada anak dengan (ISPA)di Wilayah Puskesmas Tebat Agung Muara Enim Tahun 2024 Metode: metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan studi kasus, dan intervensi batuk efektif, subjek pada studi kasus terdapat 2 pasien. Teknik pengumpulan data meliputi wawancara, observasi, pemeriksan fisik dan dokumentasi. Hasil Penelitian : pada pengkajian kedua pasien mengatakan batuk berdahak. Pada  pasien 1 dan 2 diberikan terapi farmakologis tetapi pada pasien 1 diberikan terapi tambahan yaitu terapi non farmakologis latihan batuk efektif, pada evaluasi hari ketiga pasien 1 mengatakan dahaknya sudah mulai berkurang sedangkan pada pasien 2 mengatakan dahak tidak terlalu banyak, tetapi masih ada sedikit. Diagnosa Keperawatan utama Bersihan Jalan Nafas Tidak Efektif. Setelah tiga hari dilakukan intervensi batuk efektif dan implementasi SLKI dan SIKI masalah teratasi. Kesimpulan : batuk efektif terbukti dapat membantu pasien untuk mengurangi dahaknya dibandingkan hanya dengan menggunakan terapi farmakologis saja. Kata Kunci : ISPA, Batuk Efektif

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by increased blood glucose levels due to impaired insulin secretion or action, which can lead to ineffective peripheral perfusion. This study aimed to determine the effect of Buerger Allen Exercise (BAE) on peripheral perfusion in patients with diabetes mellitus at risk for ineffective peripheral perfusion. The study used a descriptive method with two respondents who met the inclusion criteria in the inpatient ward of X Hospital, South Sumtera. Client 1 received Buerger Allen Exercise (BAE) twice daily for three days, while Client 2 was only observed. Measurement of the Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) showed an increase from 0.7 to 1.0 in Client 1, accompanied by warmer skin and reduced numbness. Client 2 showed no significant change. It can be concluded that Buerger Allen Exercise (BAE) is effective in improving peripheral perfusion in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

Background: Non-hemorrhagic stroke frequently results in upper extremity motor impairment, which limits patients’ functional independence and quality of daily living. Fine motor dysfunction commonly occurs due to neuromuscular damage affecting coordination and muscle strength. Rehabilitation interventions that are simple, accessible, and feasible in nursing practice are essential to support early motor recovery. Ball-grip exercise represents a low-cost rehabilitative approach that may enhance muscle strength through repetitive hand stimulation. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the effect of ball-grip exercise on improving fine motor function in a patient with non-hemorrhagic stroke through a nursing case study approach. Methods: A descriptive case study design was conducted at Bhayangkara Moh. Hasan Hospital Palembang in June 2025. Two adult patients diagnosed with non-hemorrhagic stroke were selected using purposive sampling based on upper limb weakness, stable consciousness, communication ability, and willingness to participate. The intervention consisted of ball-grip exercise performed for 10–15 minutes twice daily over four consecutive days alongside standard pharmacological therapy. Muscle strength was assessed using Manual Muscle Testing (MMT), supported by observation, interviews, physical examination, and medical record documentation. Data were analyzed descriptively by comparing pre- and post-intervention motor function. Results: The patient receiving combined pharmacological therapy and ball-grip exercise demonstrated improvement in muscle strength from MMT score 3 to 4 within four days, accompanied by increased functional independence, particularly in holding a spoon and eating independently. Conversely, the patient receiving pharmacological therapy alone showed no significant improvement in muscle strength or fine motor function during the same observation period. These findings indicate that ball-grip exercise may accelerate fine motor recovery in patients with non-hemorrhagic stroke. Conclusion: Ball-grip exercise is a practical and feasible nursing rehabilitation intervention that may enhance fine motor recovery in non-hemorrhagic stroke patients. Integration of simple rehabilitative exercises with pharmacological therapy may optimize functional outcomes. Healthcare providers are encouraged to incorporate structured hand exercises into routine nursing care, and further research with larger samples and longer observation periods is recommended to strengthen clinical evidence.
