Extrinsic factors include slippery floors, inadequate lighting, and uneven floors. This study aims to provide the Application of Square Stepping Exercise in Reducing the Risk of Falling in Mrs. I with Instability at the Budi Sosial Foundation Home in Batam City in 2025. The method used in this study is Auto-Anamnesis. The results of the case study research obtained by the author were carried out on Mrs. I through the application of square stepping exercise techniques for 6 days on the first diagnosis of physical mobility disorders related to decreased muscle strength. The second diagnosis of fall risk was proven by the age of 68 years. Balance disorders, decreased muscle strength, and a history of falls. Overcome because on the first day the results of the fall risk assessment were obtained TUG score 16 seconds, which is a high risk of falling, BBS score 34, which is walking with assistance, and the elderly balance assessment score 7, which is a moderate risk of falling. And on the sixth day, the TUG results obtained a score of 11 seconds, which means a low risk of falling, the BBS obtained a score of 41, which means walking independently, and the elderly balance assessment obtained a score of 4, which means a low risk of falling.Keywords: Elderly, Fall Risk, Square Stepping Exercise.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between comorbidities and depression in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus at Puskesmas Sei Langkai, Batam. The background highlights high cases of elderly diabetes mellitus (3,064 cases/4.93%) and elderly depression (52 cases/0.02%) in 2023, where comorbidities can increase depression risk, impacting physical, psychological, and social aspects. Method:A quantitative study with cross-sectional design involving 54 elderly samples selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed with the Kruskal-Wallis test. The majority of respondents (79.6%) had comorbidities, with hypertension being the highest (77.8%). About 63% suffered from diabetes mellitus for >2 years. Statistical tests showed a significant relationship between comorbidities and depression (p=0.049<0.05). Comorbidities increase the health burden on elderly diabetes mellitus patients and correlate with depression occurrence. These findings emphasize the importance of comprehensive health monitoring in the elderly, particularly detection and management of comorbidities to prevent or reduce depression risk. This information is useful for elderly patients and their families in holistic healthcare efforts.Keywords: Comorbidities, Depression, Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract: Elderly individuals with non-hemorrhagic stroke face high risks of balance disturbances and falls due to motor and cognitive decline. The Otago Exercise Program, a structured regimen to strengthen lower limb muscles and improve balance, has proven effective in reducing fall risk among older adults. This study aims to implement the program to reduce instability, an elderly patient with non-hemorrhagic stroke at the True Love Nursing Home. Using a case study approach within the nursing care process framework, physical examination and revealed weakness and stiffness in the left extremities, with muscle strength scores of 3/3/4/4. The intervention emphasized mobility improvement through six days of Otago Exercise. Interventions followed the plan with goals, contributing to gerontological nursing knowledge.

Abstract

Abstract: Dyspepsia is an upper gastrointestinal disorder characterized by epigastric discomfort, nausea, vomiting, and early satiety. The prevalence of dyspepsia is relatively high in several countries, including the United States (23–25.8%), India (30.4%), and China (23.3%). In Indonesia, the prevalence of dyspepsia reaches 40–50% of the population. One non-pharmacological approach to managing dyspepsia is acupressure therapy. Acupressure is an effective non-pharmacological intervention for reducing nausea by stimulating the autonomic nervous system and balancing the body’s energy.  This study employed a descriptive case study method involving one patient (Mrs. A) with a medical diagnosis of dyspepsia and a nursing diagnosis of nausea at Harapan Bunda Hospital, Batam. The intervention consisted of acupressure therapy at the Pericardium (P6) point for three consecutive days, with a duration of two minutes per session prior to pharmacological therapy. Data were collected through observation of changes in the patient’s nausea intensity and physiological responses.  After three days of acupressure therapy, the patient demonstrated a significant reduction in nausea complaints. On the first day, the patient experienced severe nausea with five episodes of vomiting; on the second day, nausea decreased without vomiting; and on the third day, the patient no longer experienced nausea. The patient’s general condition improved, appetite increased, and daily activities returned to normal.  The application of acupressure therapy at the Pericardium (P6) point was proven to be effective in reducing the intensity of nausea in patients with dyspepsia. Stimulation of this point helps stabilize the autonomic nervous system and improve the flow of body energy, thereby suppressing stimulation of the vomiting center. Acupressure can be considered a safe and easily applied complementary non-pharmacological nursing intervention for managing nausea in patients with dyspepsia.  Keywords: Dyspepsia; Nausea; Acupressure Technique; Pericardium (P6).
