Abstract

Introduction: Disobedience in the context of TB treatment is one of the major problems around the world. Many efforts have been made to improve the adherence to TB treatment; one of them is the utilization of health technology such as digital technology. The aim of the study was to identify the effectiveness of the use of health technology such as digital technology to improve treatment compliance.Methods: The literature review was used to identify the interventions and then the identification of the relevant literature was done by topic and title, obtaining the literature in full text form. The analysis of the results was drawn from the many interventions in the literature. There were 15 articles found from the systematic search performed in the Scopus, Proquest, Science direct, Spingerlink and Sage databases with an RCTs design. This was conducting by entering the keywords of adherence, promoting adherence, improving adherence, tuberculosis treatment, chronic disease, health technology, digital technology, mhealth and self-reminders.Results: The search was limited to journals from 2013 to 2018, with the inclusion criteria being the use health technology such as digital technology to improve the adherence to chronic disease treatment (TB treatment).Conclusion: There are several uses of health technology when it comes to improving the adherence to TB treatment that can be used as a promotive and preventive effort during the treatment of TB.

Abstract

Introduction: The number of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who undergo hemodialysis is increasing every year. Various attempts have been made to maximize the process of hemodialysis, one of which is by providing complementary therapy with music as therapy and through the administration of aromatherapy. The aim of this study was to identify the effectiveness of the use of music therapy and aromatherapy in a patient diagnosed with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis.Methods: The literature review followed on from the identification of the interventions then the studies were identified by keyword according to the topic and title. There were 15 articles that discussed the effect of music therapy and aromatherapy on patients undergoing hemodialysis. The design RCT was 7 articles, 3 quasi-experimental articles, and 5 clinical trial articles.Results: Music can raise the endorphin and serotonin levels and reduce the catecholamine levels, so it can change the respiratory rate and oxygen saturation, improve their quality of sleep and reduce fatigue.Conclusion: Our findings indicate that music therapy and aromatherapy have a positive effect on patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis.

Abstract

Introduction: Hyposalivation is a common problem experienced by head and neck (H&N) cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. Hyposalivation can cause negative effects on the physical aspects of making oral mucositis, pain during eating and talking as well as psychological effects that cause feeling of discomfort sadness and, ultimately, depression. Many nonpharmacological interventions can be done for hyposalivation that occur in patients, among which are chewing gum and cryotherapy because they are easy to do, easy to access, inexpensive and have minimal side effects. However, the effectiveness of these interventions is not yet clear. Hence, this study is aimed to determine the effectiveness of chewing gum versus cryotherapy to increase salivary volume in H&N cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy.Methods: A quasi-experimental time series group design to determine the most effective time to influence the increase in salivary volume. This research was conducted on 36 respondents H&N cancer undergoing radiotherapy with four times measurement are pretest-posttest on the 3rd, 5th, and 7th day of intervention between February and March 2020. Subjects were chosen using consecutive sampling. Chewing gum group will chew gum six (6) pieces/day and cryotherapy group will suck on ice cubes five (5) minutes before and after radiotherapy. The spitting method was used to collect saliva and the data were analyzed using General Linear Model-Repeated Measure (GLMRM).Results: Chewing gum is more effective to increase salivary volume than cryotherapy. The GLMRM within subjects at four (4) times measurement showed a significant difference between chewing gum and cryotherapy group with p value <0.05 on the 7th day. Subjects in the chewing gum group had better salivary volume increment than cryotherapy group.Conclusion: This study showed that chewing gum is more effective to increase salivary volume on patient H&N cancer undergoing radiotherapy because chewing gum has higher salivary volume increment than cryotherapy groups
