Abstract

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a progressive decline in kidney function, causing metabolic disturbances and fluid-electrolyte imbalance, which can lead to uremia. CKD patients are required to restrict fluid intake to prevent complications, but this often causes excessive thirst. One simple method to relieve thirst is mouth rinsing with boiled water. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of mouth rinsing with boiled water in reducing thirst intensity among CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis. A descriptive design with a case report approach was employed. Nursing care was provided from April 16 to May 4, 2024, in the Female Internal Ward of Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital, Padang. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to assess thirst intensity. The sample consisted of two CKD patients selected based on inclusion criteria. Results showed that mouth rinsing with boiled water effectively reduced thirst intensity, decreasing from moderate thirst (score 4–6) to mild (score 1–3), and from severe thirst (score 7–10) to moderate (score 4–6). This simple intervention is effective and can be recommended as a nursing action to reduce thirst, both in hospital settings and at home.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to prevent stunting through the holistic empowerment of pregnant women in the working area of Belimbing Public Health Center, Kuranji District, Padang City. The implementation method employed a participatory and cross-sectoral collaborative approach, beginning with a Community Deliberation Meeting (Musyawarah Masyarakat Kelurahan), followed by the establishment of Pregnant Women Classes, maternal health assessments (antenatal care, nutritional status, and hemoglobin examination), provision of iron tablets and supplementary food, as well as refresher training and capacity strengthening for health cadres. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in pregnant women’s knowledge regarding stunting prevention, increasing from 55.3% to 92%, an increase in antenatal care participation up to 98%, a reduction in the prevalence of anemia among pregnant women from 17.69% to approximately 4–5%, and a decrease in chronic energy deficiency from 5.06% to 2.1%. In addition, the knowledge level of health cadres improved substantially after training. In conclusion, the holistic empowerment of pregnant women integrated with the active involvement of cadres, families, and cross-sectoral support is effective in improving maternal health status and reducing stunting risk factors from the prenatal period.
