Abstract

Hypertension is a disease called the silent killer because the symptoms are without complaint, only known after complications are discovered. Increased blood pressure in patients with hypertension can be overcome by using pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments. Non-pharmacological therapy that can be done to reduce blood pressure in hypertensive sufferers is stress management using meditation therapy. Praying Meditation: "God In A Breath". This study aims to determine the effect of Praying Meditation: "God In A Breath" on reducing blood pressure in patients with hypertension. This research was conducted in the working area of Puskesmas Koting District, Sikka Regency. This study used a quasi experimental design with a randomized pretest-posttest control group design approach, the study sample used a simple random sampling of 87 people. The analysis used univariate with frequency and percentage, bivariate using the Wilcoxon test, and statistical difference test (Mann-Whitney test). The results showed that the Wilcoxon test had a significant effect on the Praying Meditation: "God In A Breath" intervention on blood pressure with a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05). The results of the Mann-Whitney test showed a significant difference between the blood pressure of the intervention group and the control group with a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05). Prayer meditation has an effect on lowering blood pressure so that it can be one of the nursing interventions that can be given by nurses and can be continued by hypertensive patients independently. Keywords: blood pressure,hypertension , praying meditation.

Abstract

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic and progressive joint disorder that is usually found in middle to old age, which is characterized by damage to cartilages located in the joints of the bones. Its presence is often followed by muscle weakness, limitation in movement and local pain—ultimately decreases the quality of life for patients suffering from it. Purpose: This study aims to analyse the effect of contrast bath therapy and rheumatic exercise on changes of pain and movement range in older people with osteoarthritis. Methods: This research used a quantitative method, i.e., Quasi-Experiment with One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. Based on the design, intervention was only conductedtowards one group without comparison. The effectiveness of the treatment was assessed by comparing the scores pre-test and post-test of 35 elderly respondents, whose inclusion criteria were: elderly residents of the Padu Wau Waipare Social Care Center, Kangae District, Sikka Regency; age> 60 years; having a medical history of knee osteoarthritis and complaints of joint pain (scale 1-9);and not currently experiencing inflammation with uncontrolled severe joint pain scale (scale 10) whichrequires elderlies to have bedrest then analysed using wilcoxon test statistical. Results : The result of Wilcoxon test statistical test indicates that there is an effect of rheumatic exercise and contrast bath therapy on changes in pain levels and range of motion before and after rheumatic exercise therapy in which from the total of 35 respondents who were observed, the z value = -3.357b<z table value and p value = 0.001 (p <0.05). Conclusion: that there is a significant effect caused by rheumatic exercise and contrast bath therapy on changes in pain levels and range of motion.

Abstract

Stroke is a loss of brain function due to cessation or reduced blood supply to the brain, causing local or global nerve function disorders that arise suddenly, progressively, and rapidly. Blood flow that is not smooth in stroke patients can result in hemodynamic disturbances including oxygen saturation. One of the independent nursing actions to increase oxygen saturation is by giving a head up position of 30 degrees. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of giving a 30 degree Head Up position on oxygen saturation in stroke patients. This type of research is quantitative research with a quasi-experimental research method with one group pre-test-post-test design. The number of samples in this study were 15 samples with accidental sampling technique. Data were collected using observation instruments. The results showed that 100% of the 15 respondents experienced a decrease in oxygen saturation, and 100% experienced an increase in oxygen saturation after giving the head up position 30 degrees. This study used the Wilcoxon statistical test which showed that giving the head up position 30 degrees had a significant effect in increasing oxygen saturation in stroke patients (p value = 0.000; = 0.05; and Z count = -3.493). There is an effect of giving a 30 degree head-up position on oxygen saturation in stroke patients in the emergency department of RSUD dr. T.C. Hillers Maumere. Recommendations from the study are aimed at nurses so that they can apply the provision of a 30 degree head up position as one of the independent nursing actions for stroke patients and to hospitals to prepare a 30 degree head up position SOP.

Abstract

Background: Health is something that is very important for human life. Health and lifestyle are influenced by developments over time. One example is the lack of consumption of foods with fiber to meet daily needs, which causes health problems, namely appendicitis. Appendicitis is a common cause of acute inflammation of the right lower quadrant of the abdominal cavity, which is treated by emergency abdominal surgery. The inflammatory process that occurs in the appendix increases intraluminal pressure which causes the pain to become more severe, generalized or periumbilical and move to the right lower quadrant. One way to deal with pain is by applying the effleurage technique (massage/touch therapy). The aim of this case study is to determine the reduction in pain scale in post-appendectomy patients after effleurage technique therapy (massage/touch therapy). The method used in this case study is case study design with a nursing care process approach. The subjects in this case study were 2 patients, who were obtained from inclusion and exclusion criteria, data collection using the numeric rating scale (NRS). The results of the case study show that the average pain level of the two patients after being given effleurage technique therapy intervention (massage/touch therapy) for 3 days experienced a change from moderate pain to mild pain. The conclusion of this case study shows that there were changes that occurred after the effleurage technique (massage/touch therapy) was given to the 2 patients and they experienced a decrease in the pain scale.
