Abstract

Most women experience severe pain problems during menstruation, usually called dysmenorrhea. Yoga practice can reduce body, mind, and psychic tension, reduce pain, and release endorphins to increase the response of the parasympathetic nerves which causes vasodilation of blood vessels throughout the body and uterus, and increases uterine blood flow thereby reducing the intensity of dysmenorrhea. This study aimed to determine the effect of yoga practice on reducing menstrual pain intensity (dysmenorrhea) in adolescent girls. This study used a literature review design using 3 databases, namely PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. The results showed that in the study, the exercises used were yoga with a percentage of 100% using yoga practice interventions. Yoga practice was done within 30-60 minutes per session with a period of 1-3 times a week. Menstrual pain in adolescents who were given yoga practice in the journal experienced a decrease in pain intensity with p = 0.05. Yoga can stimulate the body to release endorphins and enkephalins, inhibiting pain. Yoga is performed by relaxing the endometrial muscles when contractions and ischemia occur due to increased prostaglandin levels, which will cause vasodilation of blood vessels and cause blood flow to experience spasms and spasms ischemia and then reduce pain. Yoga will change the pattern of pain acceptance towards calming the body and will gradually recover from pain disorders. Yoga practice can be an alternative to reduce the intensity of menstrual pain in adolescent girls.

Abstract

Basic Nursing Clinical Practice is the first clinical learning experience for vocational nursing students. The achievement of complete competence will provide a positive experience, ability, willingness to learn actively and independently, and direct continuous learning so that competent vocational nurse graduates are achieved. Self-Directed Learning Readiness (SDLR) is a condition where students have full control in the process of making decisions related to their learning and accept full responsibility for it, even though later they need help and advice from lecturers and Clinical Instructors. Therefore, this research was conducted to determine the effectiveness of SDLR on the competency achievement of basic nursing clinical practice students. This study used a quasi-experimental design with one group pretest and posttest design. The sampling technique used total sampling, with as many as 91 respondents. Respondents were 2nd semester D3 Nursing Study Program students. The analysis used an independent sample t-test, with a 95% degree of confidence. The results of statistical tests using the Independent T-Test showed that there was a positive effect of SDLR on the Competency Achievements of Basic Nursing Clinical Students with a p-value <0.05. Of course, a high level of Self Directed Learning Readiness, can have a positive impact on student competency outcomes in carrying out Nursing Clinical Practice, where competency achievement targets will be met. Achievement of plenary competence will provide a positive experience, ability, willingness to learn actively and independently, and direct continuous learning so that competent vocational nurse graduates are achieved.

Abstract

Self-directed learning (SDL) solves learning challenges using various learning tools. Nursing requires lifelong learning, and SDL is an important skill for practitioners to stay current and effective. It is required of nursing students to embrace SDL and hone these abilities. Nevertheless, there is no indication of this novel procedure in Lumajang. This study aims to assess nursing students' preparation for SDL and its impact on learning outcomes. This quasi-experimental study purposefully included 91 students who carry out basic nursing clinical practice as participants. The instrument used in this study was the Self-Directed Learning Readiness Scale (SDLRS) questionnaire developed by Fisher. The results of this study showed that there was an increase in the SDLR level from 9 students (9.9%) having a high SDLR level to 78 students (85.8%) and 82 students (90.1%) having a moderate SDLR level to 13 students (14.2%). The nursing students' average SDL preparedness level has a substantial impact on learning outcomes. Nursing training institutes should give the resources required to adopt SDL as a primary teaching technique to ensure competent lifelong professionals.
