Abstract

Background: In Central Java, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is included in the top 10 causes of death and disease burden. COPD is a respiratory disorder that worsens over time. Benson's relaxation therapy combined with Qur'anic recitation is one of the non-pharmacological interventions that has the ability to affect the rate of breathing. Objective: This study aims to find out how Benson's relaxation therapy and Qur'an recitation simultaneously affect RR in COPD patients. Method: Without a control group, this research employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest. The inclusion and exclusion criteria were used to pick a total of 18 samples using the purposive sampling approach. In order to examine the data, the Wilcoxon test and univariate and bivariate tests were used. Result: This research showed that before the intervention, the patient's respiratory rate was above normal, but then normalized after the intervention (p < 0.001). Conclusion: The combination of Benson relaxation therapy and Al-Quran recitation has a significant effect on the respiratory rate (RR) in COPD patients.

Abstract

Hypertension is a condition that often does not present clear visible symptoms, with blood pressure readings reaching 140/90 mmHg or higher. One non-pharmacological treatment method that can be considered to reduce hypertension is Benson relaxation therapy combined with Quranic recitation (murottal). This study aims to evaluate the effects of the combination of Benson relaxation therapy and Quranic recitation on blood pressure changes in hypertensive patients. The study design used a quasi-experimental quantitative approach with a pretest-posttest method without a control group. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, involving 21 hypertensive patients receiving treatment at the Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital. Wilcoxon test was used for data analysis. The results of the study showed that before the intervention, both systolic and diastolic blood pressure were in the stage 2 hypertension category, but after the intervention, blood pressure decreased to stage 1 hypertension. This indicates a significant change in blood pressure due to the combination of Benson relaxation therapy and Quranic recitation (p-value < 0.05).

Abstract

Hemodialysis is a medical procedure used to correct blood biochemical abnormalities caused by impaired kidney function, with the aid of a hemodialysis machine. One of the most commonly used accesses in this procedure is the Arteriovenous Fistula (AVF), which is an anastomosis between the artery and vein in the arm or other parts of the body to facilitate the cannulation process. However, during the AVF cannulation procedure, patients often experience pain, which can cause discomfort and anxiety. Cold compresses are one of the non-pharmacological techniques that can be used to alleviate this pain. This study aims to examine the effect of cold compresses on reducing pain during AVF cannulation in hemodialysis patients. This research uses a Quasi-Experimental design with a Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design model, involving 116 hemodialysis patients at RSI Sultan Agung Semarang. Patients were divided into two groups: the intervention group, which received cold compresses, and the control group, which did not receive treatment. Pain intensity was measured before and after cannulation using a visual analog scale (VAS). The results of the study show that the administration of cold compresses significantly reduced pain intensity, with a p-value of 0.000 (< 0.05). In addition, there was a significant difference in effectiveness between the intervention group and the control group, with the same p-value. In conclusion, cold compresses proved to be an effective, simple, safe, and easy-to-apply non-pharmacological intervention to reduce pain in hemodialysis patients during the AVF cannulation procedure. Therefore, the use of cold compresses can be recommended as a method to improve the comfort of hemodialysis patients.

Abstract

The family has an important role in the treatment process of cancer patients, especially in providing motivation during treatment. Social support from families has a great influence on the psychological condition of breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. As the health workers who interact most intensely with patients, nurses play a role in empowering families through education and counseling to improve the quality of support provided. This study aims to analyze the relationship between social support and motivation to recover in breast cancer patients at RSI Sultan Agung Semarang. The study used a correlational descriptive design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 77 respondents who were selected using purposive sampling techniques based on certain inclusion criteria. Data collection was carried out through a structured questionnaire, and statistical analysis was carried out using the Pearson correlation test. The results showed a significant relationship between social support and motivation to recover, with a correlation value of 0.478 and a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that the higher the level of social support patients receive, the greater their motivation to recover. The conclusion of this study is that social support has a positive contribution to increasing the healing motivation of breast cancer patients. Therefore, nursing interventions that actively involve families need to be improved as part of a holistic approach to the care of cancer patients.

Abstract

Appendicitis is an inflammatory condition of the small intestinal tract that is about 4 inches in size and located at the end of the secum. This condition often causes significant pain and requires effective management. In addition to pharmacological approaches, non-pharmacological methods such as relaxation techniques and alternative therapies are beginning to be widely applied to reduce pain and anxiety. One promising method is 5-finger hypnosis therapy, which is a relaxation technique that harnesses the power of the mind to achieve calmness and reduce the perception of pain. This study aims to determine the effect of 5-finger hypnosis therapy on pain reduction in appendicitis patients at RSI Sultan Agung Semarang. The research design used was quasi-experimental with a pre-posttest one group approach. A total of 32 appendicitis patients were selected as samples using the total sampling technique. Pain scales were measured before and after the intervention, then analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test. The results showed a Z-value of -3.097 and a p-value of 0.002 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference between pain levels before and after therapy. These findings prove that 5-finger hypnosis therapy is effective in reducing pain in appendicitis patients. This study recommends the application of 5-finger hypnosis therapy as a non-pharmacological approach that can support patient comfort and accelerate the recovery process holistically.

Abstract

Malaria is an infectious disease caused by various species of Plasmodium, such as Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium malariae, and Plasmodium ovale, which are transmitted through the bite of Anopheles mosquitoes. The spread of this disease is highly influenced by the presence of mosquito breeding sites as vectors of transmission. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the knowledge and attitudes of outpatients toward malaria prevention behaviors at the ASA Enterop Clinic in Jayapura. The study design used a descriptive analytical method with a cross-sectional approach. The research instrument was a questionnaire, and data analysis involved both univariate and bivariate analysis, as well as Chi-square statistical testing. The results showed that 57 respondents (54.0%) had good knowledge with good prevention behavior, and 5 respondents (8.0%) had moderate knowledge with good prevention behavior. Meanwhile, 1 respondent (4.4%) had good knowledge but poor prevention behavior, and 5 respondents (5.0%) had moderate knowledge with poor prevention behavior. The conclusion of this study indicates a significant relationship between knowledge and attitudes with malaria prevention behavior in the research area. These findings highlight the importance of improving public knowledge and attitudes in preventing malaria and suggest that strengthening health education and awareness is crucial for disease prevention.

Abstract

Patients undergoing chemotherapy often face side effects such as pain and anxiety, which may negatively impact their quality of life and adherence to treatment. While pharmacological management is commonly used, non-pharmacological interventions such as relaxation techniques are increasingly being considered to complement conventional therapy. This study aimed to examine the effect of the Benson relaxation technique on pain and anxiety levels in patients undergoing chemotherapy. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group was employed, and purposive sampling was used to recruit 70 respondents who met the inclusion criteria. Pain intensity was measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), and anxiety levels were assessed using the Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (ZSAS). Data were analyzed using the Marginal Homogeneity test. The results demonstrated a significant reduction in both pain (p = 0.000) and anxiety (p = 0.000) in the intervention group after the implementation of the Benson relaxation technique, while no significant changes were observed in the control group. These findings indicate that the Benson relaxation technique is effective in reducing pain and anxiety among patients receiving chemotherapy. The study highlights the importance of integrating simple, low-cost, and non-invasive interventions into oncology nursing care. Furthermore, the Benson relaxation technique can be recommended as a supportive therapy to improve patient comfort, psychological well-being, and treatment adherence in chemotherapy settings.
