Abstract

Asthma is a chronic disease of the respiratory system that causes respiratory symptoms, such as wheezing, shortness of breath and coughing, so that one of the non-pharmacological therapies can be used to help increase oxygen saturation, eosinophil levels and prevent recurrence independently by using the buteyko breathing technique and asthma gymnastics. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the buteyko breathing technique and asthma gymnastics on the improvement of oxygen saturation values ??and eosinophil levels. The study quasi experiment used a pre-test – post-test design with a control group design involving 36 asthma patients. Selected through a non- probability sampling technique with a purposive sampling method which is divided into 3 groups, namely 12 respondents in intervention group 1 who were given buteyko breathing technique treatment, 12 respondents in intervention group 2 who were given treatment in the form of buteyko breathing technique and asthma gymnastics, while 12 respondents in a control group that was only given asthma gymnastics. Measurements of oxygen saturation and eosinophil levels were carried out on the 1th, 7th to 14th day with 3 measurements, then the data were analyzed using the General Lineal Model (GLM) test. Repeated ANOVA test showed that there was a difference in the mean value of oxygen saturation (spo2) and eosinophil levels with a value of p = 0.000 which indicated that there was a significant difference between groups with the highest increase in oxygen saturation value in the intervention group 2 (Buteyko and asthma gymnastics) that is 1.83, followed by intervention group 1 (Buteyko breathing technique) that is 0.50 and the smallest decrease in the value of SpO2 was in the control group (asthma exercise) of 0.42. The highest decrease in eosinophil levels was in the intervention group 2 that is -21.66, followed by the control group that is -18.67 and the smallest decrease in eosinophil value was in the intervention group 1 at -7.66. Research conclusions buteyko breathing technique and asthma gymnastics effectiveness on value improvements oxygen saturation and eosinophil levels.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is influenced by lifestyle factors such as high fat intake which has the potential for high blood cholesterol level. Cocoa products, which are rich sources of flavonoids, have been shown to reduce blood pressure and the risk of cardiovascular disease.Aims: The purpose of this research is to examine the dark chocolate consumption in decreasing the level of blood cholesterol and triglyceride in hypertension patients.Methods: This research is a quasi-experiment study with pre and post and control group design. There were thirty two (32) hypertensive patients selected from Jatiroto Health Center in June-July 2018 using a random sampling technique. The respondents were then divided to (1) a control group where patients were prescribed to a popular non-pharmacological therapy Simvastatin and (2) an intervention group where the respondents were prescribed with Simvastatin and also received an additional dark chocolate 60gr/day (given twice a day, each 30gr) for 15 days. A spectrophotometer glycerol phosphate oxidase (GPO-POD) with 546 nm wavelength was employed to measure the levels of blood cholesterol and triglyceride. The significant mean difference between pre and posttest, and the changes between control and intervention group were defined by statistical analysis T-test.Results: This study acknowledged that the prescribed simvastatin alone presents a significant contribution to decrease the cholesterol level at 14.40 point (p value = 0.041), however, the generic is not enough to deliver a significant effect to the decrease of triglyceride level in the hypertension patients (p value = 0.361). A great contribution to the depression of cholesterol and triglyceride level in the hypertensive respondent was observed if simvastatin prescription was combined with a provision of 60 gram dark chocolate, respectively to the level of 57.06 and 38.41 mg/dL with p value = 0.001. The addition of dark chocolate in the simvastatin prescription will significantly reduce the blood cholesterol level (p value = 0.020), but not really effective to reduce the triglyceride (p value = 0.560).Conclusion: The findings suggest that giving dark chocolate to the hypertensive patients who receive simvastatin prescription will decrease the cholesterol and triglyceride levels greater than the consumption of simvastatin drugs alone. Keywords: Dark chocolate, Simvastatin, Hypertension, Cholesterol, Triglyceride
