Abstract

This study focused on the observation of pregnant women after surgery to determine the comparison of drugs and pain scales after surgery with the ERACS method and the method without ERACS. This study aims to determine the comparison of drugs and pain scales in patients after Sectio Caesarea surgery using the ERACS method and without ERACS. Currently, the Enhanced Recovery After Caesarian Surgery (ERACS) method as a perioperative program is popular, because it is considered to have a faster healing time and minimize pain so as to provide comfort to patients. This quantitative study was designed using a Cross-Sectional approach. The research sample was 40 respondents whose Pain Scale was measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) measured with an observation sheet. Based on the results of statistical analysis. In the results of the Univariate test analysis on drug administration and pain scales of both VAS variables after (24 hours). It can be concluded that there is a difference between the amount of pain medication given and the pain scale with the ERACS method and the method without ERACS. The ERACS method has been shown to be more effective in reducing pain after Sectio Caesarea surgery and accelerating patient recovery compared to the method without ERACS. These findings support the use of the ERACS method as a standard of care to improve patient comfort and clinical efficiency

Abstract

Incised wounds are disruptions of skin integrity that require effective treatment to accelerate healing. Cinnamon (Cinnamomum burmanii), rich in secondary metabolites such as eugenol, cinnamaldehyde, and flavonoids, is known for its potential as an anti- inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial agent. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of cinnamon extract ointment in healing incised wounds in Wistar rats. This experimental study used a post-test only control group design. A total of 30 Wistar rats were divided into five groups: a negative control (ointment base), a positive control (gentamicin ointment), and three treatment groups with cinnamon extract ointments at concentrations of 10%, 20%, and 40%. Observations of wound length and healing percentages were conducted over 14 days. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests. The results showed a significant reduction in wound length in the 40% cinnamon extract ointment group (19.6 mm) compared to the negative control (12.8 mm) and were close to the effectiveness of gentamicin ointment (20 mm). The highest wound healing percentage was also achieved in the 40% concentration group (98.2%), comparable to gentamicin ointment (100%). Cinnamon extract ointment at a concentration of 40% effectively accelerates the healing of incised wounds in Wistar rats, with effectiveness comparable to gentamicin ointment. Further research is needed to evaluate its safety and clinical potential.
