Abstract

Introduction: The International Diabetes Federation revealed that Indonesia is currently ranked sixth worldwide for deaths from diabetes in 2021. In addition to pharmacological therapy, managing type 2 diabetes mellitus can use non-pharmacological therapies, such as progressive muscle relaxation therapy. This study aimed to analyze the effect of progressive muscle relaxation therapy on blood glucose levels in older people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Method: This study used a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental approach, pre-test, and post-test with a control group. Sampling technique random sampling of 70 elderly. Instruments: observation sheet of blood glucose levels and PMR SOP. Data analysis using the T-Test. Results: The average blood glucose level before the intervention was 211.7 mg/dl and 183.74 mg/dl after the intervention. In the intervention group, there was an effect with p-value = 0.036 (p-value <0.05). Post-intervention and post-control, there was no difference with a value of 0.074 (p> 0.05), meaning there is no difference. Conclusions: Progressive muscle relaxation affects blood glucose levels in the elderly with type 2 diabetes mellitus at the elderly Posyandu, Singosari Village.

Abstract

Introduction: School-aged children are in the developmental stage of concrete operational thinking, where they begin to think logically and solve problems in a structured way. However, many children at this stage still experience difficulties in subjects which often requires high levels of concentration and problem-solving skills. This study aims to determine the effect of classical music therapy on learning concentration in school-aged children. Method: This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group design. Population consisted of 42 school-aged children, a sample of 38 was obtained using a non-probability sampling. Classical music therapy was used as the independent variable, while learning concentration served as the dependent variable. Learning concentration was measured before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test to determine the effect intervention. Results: The results of the Wilcoxon statistical test yielded a ρ value of 0.00, which is smaller than the predetermined significance level (α = 0.05). This finding indicates that classical music therapy has a statistically significant effect on improving learning concentration in school-aged children. The outcome supports the notion that classical music stimulates cognitive, focus, and learning atmosphere. Conclusion: This study concludes that classical music therapy has a significant positive influence on learning concentration. The intervention was shown to enhance students’ ability to maintain focus and sustain attention during learning activities, suggesting that classical music supports environment for academic engagement. Results reinforce the importance of innovative educational interventions that address cognitive, emotional, and environmental factors in the learning process.
