Abstract

Personal hygiene is self-care done to maintain health both physically and psychologically. A clean body minimizes the risk of someone contracting an illness. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between personal hygiene and complaints of skin disorders in farmers. The population is study were all farmers in the Alalak Utara Village of Banjarmasain. The sample is study was 30 respondents. The results of data analysis showed that there were complaints of skin disorders in 8 respondents (88.9%), with poor personal hygiene,. While for those who have no complaints of skin disorders 1 respondent (11.1%) with less personal hygiene, 3 respondents (37.5%) with sufficient personal hygiene, and 7 respondents (53.8%) with good personal hygiene. The results of the statistical test show the value of p = 0.046 that there is relationship between personal hygiene and complaints of skin disorders in farmers in the North Alalak Village, Banjarmasin

Abstract

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common healthcare-associated infections among bedridden patients using urinary catheters. Proper fulfillment of elimination needs by nurses is considered essential for preventing catheter-associated infections; however, evidence on its relationship to UTI risk remains limited. This study aimed to examine the association between nurses’ compliance with elimination care standard operating procedures (SOPs) and the risk of UTI among bedridden patients. A quantitative study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in an inpatient hospital setting involving 59 nurses and 59 bedridden, catheterized patients. Total sampling was applied to recruit participants. Nurses’ compliance with elimination care SOPs was measured using a validated questionnaire, while UTI risk among patients was assessed using a clinical observation checklist. Data were analyzed through univariate analysis and Fisher’s Exact Test with a significance level of α = 0.05. The findings showed that most nurses demonstrated very high compliance with elimination care SOPs. The majority of patients were categorized as having no UTI risk, while a smaller proportion showed potential risk. Statistical analysis indicated a significant association between nurse compliance and UTI risk (p = 0.028). Patients treated by nurses with higher compliance were less likely to experience UTI risk. These findings emphasize the importance of strengthening nurse compliance through continuous training, supervision, and monitoring to improve patient safety and nursing care quality.

Abstract

Postoperative pain is one of the most common clinical problems experienced by patients with fractures and may delay recovery. Benson Relaxation Therapy is a non-pharmacological intervention that may help reduce pain intensity. This study aimed to examine the effect of Benson Relaxation Therapy on postoperative pain among patients with fractures. A pre-experimental study with a one-group pretest–posttest design was conducted involving 34 patients with fractures recruited using accidental sampling. Pain intensity was assessed using a pain scale before and after the intervention and analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Before the intervention, most participants experienced moderate pain (91.2%), whereas after the intervention the majority reported mild pain (76.5%). The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test demonstrated a significant difference in pain intensity before and after the intervention (p = 0.001). Benson Relaxation Therapy had a significant effect on reducing postoperative pain among patients with fractures.

Abstract

Fatigue and sleep disturbances are two common symptoms experienced by cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. These conditions negatively impact quality of life and the effectiveness of treatment. One promising non-pharmacological approach is autogenic relaxation, a relaxation technique that combines self-suggestion, controlled breathing, and focused attention on bodily sensations to achieve physical and mental calmness. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of autogenic relaxation in improving sleep quality and reducing fatigue levels in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. The study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest and control group. A total of 30 patients were divided into two groups: intervention (n = 15) and control (n = 15). The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The intervention was conducted for two weeks, twice a day, using an audio guide. Sleep quality was measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and fatigue was assessed using the Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS). The intervention group showed a decrease in mean PSQI scores from 11.2 to 8.1 (p = 0.017) and FAS scores from 34.5 to 28.3 (p = 0.031). Data analysis was performed using the Shapiro–Wilk normality test, followed by the Wilcoxon test for analysis within groups, and the Mann–Whitney test for between groups. The control group did not show any significant changes. These results indicate that autogenic relaxation stimulates a physiological relaxation response that contributes to improved sleep and reduced fatigue. Autogenic relaxation is an effective and applicable non-pharmacological supportive intervention for cancer patients during chemotherapy.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of Dikdea as a Diabetes Mellitus risk screening tool for adolescents. The study employed a quantitative research design using a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) with a pretest–posttest control group design. The results showed that the intervention group experienced significant improvements in knowledge, attitudes, and healthy behaviors related to Diabetes Mellitus prevention compared to the control group, with significant differences in knowledge (p=0.021), attitudes (p=0.017), and healthy behaviors (p=0.013). Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis also showed that Dikdea had good diagnostic ability (AUC=0.87; sensitivity 84.2%; specificity 79.5%). In conclusion, Dikdea is an effective non-invasive screening tool for identifying the risk of Diabetes Mellitus among adolescents and has the potential to be implemented as a school-based screening strategy to support the early detection and prevention of Diabetes Mellitus.   Keywords: Adolescents, Diabetes Mellitus, Early Detection, Risk Screening
