Abstract

Hypertension is a condition where systolic blood pressure increases > 140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure > 90 mmHg. Swedish massage therapy is a complementary therapy that is believed to be able to provide a relaxation response. This study aims to determine whether there is an effect of Swedish Massage therapy on the blood pressure of the elderly. Literature review research was carried out using PICO searches in several databases such as Google Scholar, Gaster, Hindawi, Macro, and Pubmed. It was found that 5 journals met the criteria and showed the results that Swedish Massage was carried out 5 times a week for 5 weeks, with a duration of 1 hour and a p-value of P < 0/005 showing a significant effect. The effects of Swedish Massage have an influence on smooth blood circulation, stimulate parasympathetic activity and increase the release of endorphins so that this process is useful in stabilizing blood pressure. Swedish Massage Therapy can be recommended as a treatment for improving blood pressure in people with hypertension.

Abstract

Surgery is a treatment procedure that uses invasive techniques by opening the part of the body to be treated with an incision which ends with stitching the wound. Of course, patients who will undergo surgery will feel anxious. Therefore, therapeutic communication will be used to reduce patient anxiety. Therapeutic communication is health communication that can provide accurate information and increase the confidence of patients who will undergo surgery. Therefore, every hospital nurse must have good therapeutic communication skills. Adding therapeutic communication skills to nurses can be done through workshops and other training. The design of this research is a literature review or also known as a systematic method for carrying out identification and evaluation of works from the results of research conducted by previous researchers. Using 5 journals covering the last 10 years.The results of this study found that 5 journals said that good therapeutic communication was related to reducing anxiety in preoperative patients with a p-value <0.005.

Abstract

Down syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 21 (trisomy 21). This additional chromosome results in the overproduction of certain proteins, which can disrupt normal body growth and development and affect the development of the nervous system, particularly the brain. This case study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a physiotherapy intervention combining Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT) and Sensory Integration in improving motor abilities in children with Down syndrome. Assessments were conducted on two children aged 6 and 8 years using the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) dimensions B, D, and E, along with sensory function and range of motion examinations. The evaluation results demonstrated significant improvements following the intervention, particularly in gross motor function and postural stability. In conclusion, the combination of Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT) and Sensory Integration was shown to be effective in supporting motor development in children with Down syndrome. This exercise program can also be implemented independently at home under parental supervision as part of an ongoing rehabilitation program.

Abstract

Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) merupakan kelainan tulang belakang tiga dimensi yang ditandai dengan kelengkungan lateral disertai rotasi vertebra sehingga dapat menyebabkan gangguan postur, keseimbangan tubuh, dan penurunan kemampuan fungsional. Salah satu intervensi fisioterapi konservatif yang direkomendasikan pada AIS adalah Schroth Exercise. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hasil pemberian Schroth Exercise terhadap Angle of Trunk Rotation (ATR) pada pasien AIS. Penelitian menggunakan metode studi kasus terhadap tiga pasien AIS berusia 11, 12, dan 15 tahun di RSUP Fatmawati. Intervensi diberikan sebanyak tiga kali pertemuan dengan evaluasi menggunakan Skoliometer untuk mengukur nilai ATR. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa seluruh pasien mengalami penurunan nilai ATR setelah intervensi. Nilai ATR pada An. S.L. menurun dari 8° menjadi 6°, An. S. dari 6° menjadi 4°, dan An. A. dari 7° menjadi 5°. Penurunan tersebut menunjukkan adanya perbaikan rotasi trunk dan keseimbangan postur setelah pemberian Schroth Exercise. Dengan demikian, Schroth Exercise berpotensi menjadi salah satu intervensi fisioterapi konservatif yang dapat membantu mengurangi rotasi trunk pada pasien AIS. Namun, penelitian dengan jumlah sampel yang lebih besar serta durasi intervensi yang lebih panjang masih diperlukan untuk mengonfirmasi efektivitas intervensi ini.
