Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by increased blood glucose levels in the body due to impaired carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism. Symptoms that often appear include polyuria (frequent urination) and polydipsia (frequent thirst) as a sign of lack of insulin in the body. In Indonesia, diabetes sufferers will reach 20.4 million people in 2024, with Palembang ranking as the highest number of cases in South Sumatra. One effective non-pharmacological action is foot massage therapy which helps lower blood glucose levels by increasing peripheral blood circulation and providing a relaxing effect. The design of this study is a case study with an intervention carried out from June 22 to 25, 2026 in the internal medicine inpatient ward of Bhayangkara Mohamad Hasan Hospital Palembang. Therapy is given for 30 minutes every day for three consecutive days to three respondents. After the application of therapy, the results of blood glucose levels in Mrs. N were 214 mg/dl, Mrs. Rm was 220 mg/dl, and Mrs. Rl was 278 mg/dl. The application of Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) foot massage has been shown to provide comfort that contributes to blood glucose stability. This therapy is recommended as a non-pharmacological management reference for people with diabetes.

Abstract

Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) is a chronic condition that causes impaired heart function in pumping blood, which can reduce oxygen levels in the body. The increasing incidence of CHF in Indonesia requires appropriate treatment to improve patient health status. One of the evidence-based practice (EBP) interventions that can be applied is the provision of a semi-Fowler position to increase oxygen saturation in CHF patients. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of providing a semi-Fowler position in increasing oxygen saturation in CHF patients undergoing treatment in the inpatient room of Siti Fatimah Hospital, South Sumatra Province. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive case study method on three CHF patients who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and oxygen saturation measurements using an oximeter before and after the semi-Fowler position intervention for three days. The results showed an increase in oxygen saturation after the application of the semi-Fowler position in all respondents. In Mr. M, there was an increase in average oxygen saturation of 6%, in Mr. N by 3.3%, and in Mrs. N by 4.7%.
