Abstract

Pulmonary tuberculosis is a communicable infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis and often causes respiratory system disorders. Patients with pulmonary TB commonly experience shortness of breath coughing, and decreased breathing pattern effectiveness, which may interfer with daily activities. One non-pharmacological nursing intervention that can be implemented to help address these problems is the implementation of the orthopneic position. This position aims to maximize lung expansion, reduce the workload of the respiratory muscles, and improve patient comfort during breathing. This case study aims to describe the implementation of the orthopneic position in patients with pulmonary TB as an effort to improve breathing pattern effectiveness at TK II Putri Hijau Hospital, Medan. The expected outcomes of implementing the orthopneic position are that patients will be able to breathe more effectively, have a more regular respiratory rate, and experience reduced complaints of shortness of breath. Therefore, the orthopneic position can be used as an effective independent nursing intervention to support the recovery of patients with pulmonary TB.
