Abstract

Background: Postpartum pain experienced by every mother was a subjective and physiological experience. This is due to increased hormones oxytocin and prolactin, causing uterine contractions after the placenta and the baby was born. The acupressure technique was a non-pharmacological technique aimed at reducing the level of pain in postpartum mothers. This technique has never been applied in dr. R. Soedarsono Pasuruan general hospital. Purpose: This study aimed was to determine the effect of acupressure to decrease pain levels in postpartum women. Method: The population in this study were postpartum women, with a sample of 16 people. The study used One group, pre-post test design with systematic random sampling. VAS (Visual Analog Scale) was used to collect the data. The data analyzed with Wilcoxon test (α =0,05). Result: The results showed that before acupressure 62,5% postpartum women experienced moderate pain (10 people). After acupressure 62.5% postpartum women experienced mild pain (10 people). The statistic test result showed p= 0,00 (p < α) so Ha was accepted.

Psychosocial problems are problems that occur in the mental and social. Stigmatization of people with mental disorders is still common. Stigmatization about people with mental disorders who are considered dangerous and families who feel ashamed and worried about having family members with mental disorders, often lead to social isolation or intentionally isolate people with mental disorders by shackles. The purpose of counseling is to increase family knowledge about the importance of avoiding stigmatization in people with mental disorders. Counseling is done by providing education and leaflets according to the theme. Based on the results of the pre-survey conducted before this outreach activity, family knowledge about the importance of avoiding stigmatization in people with mental disorders was respondents with low knowledge (60%) and with sufficient knowledge (40%). After providing education, it was found that there was a significant increase in the knowledge of family members: enough (40%), good (60%).
