Abstract

Background: Chemotherapy's effects decrease the quality of life in breast cancer patients. Smartphone apps are ready to deliver Benson's relaxation program. Objective: This study aimed to develop and assess the usefulness of the “Bens-App (Benson’s relaxation application)” for breast cancer patients. Methods: The study included 28 breast cancer patients in Baladhika Husada Hospital in Jember. Indonesia. Developed the application in several stages (1) literature review to determine the content, (2) the application feasibility test carried out by 2 experts in medical surgical nursing and oncology. Performed usability tests after the patient had used Bens-App for 7 days. The mHealth App Usability Questionnaire (MAUQ) was used to measure usability. Results: Bens-App contains 6 features (1) health information about breast cancer, Benson's relaxation, and fatigue (2) Benson's relaxation guide using audio (3) "reminder" reminds patients to perform Benson relaxation twice/day (4) self-monitoring which in graphical form on the home page, (5) documentation via the web to observe patient activity with the Bens-App. Usability tests results show 3 items get the highest average MAUQ score, "I will use this application again" (6.5/7), "Applications that are useful for health and me" (6.5/7), "Applications improve my access to health services" (6.5/7) and the lowest average score on the item" I can use the application when the internet network is poor or unavailable” (5.28/7). Conclusion; Bens-App can be received well, although some items still need improvement. Further research in larger populations is required

Abstract

Military personnel performance is a crucial factor in achieving operational effectiveness, especially at the TNI AL IV Batam Main Base. Although adaptability and dual positions have been shown to have a significant effect on personnel performance, there is a knowledge gap regarding how superior support can moderate the relationship. This study aims to analyze the effect of adaptability on personnel performance, with superior support as a moderating variable, which is a new aspect and has not been widely studied in the military context. A quantitative approach was used in this study, using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method through AMOS software. Data were obtained from 30 respondents who were military personnel at the TNI AL IV Batam Main Base. The results showed that adaptability and dual positions had a positive and significant effect on personnel performance. In addition, superior support was shown to moderate the relationship between adaptability and dual positions with performance, strengthening the influence of both factors. The model used in this study also showed good fit, so it can be relied on to explain the relationship between variables. These findings fill the gap in previous research and emphasize the importance of developing adaptability, effective dual-job management, and superior support in order to improve the performance of military personnel in a dynamic and challenging work environment

Abstract

The pulmonary complication after cardiac surgery is estimated to be 2-4%. These complications increase the length of hospital stay and increase cost. Postoperative cardiac surgery care focuses on pulmonary function with active cycle of breathing technique (ACBT). This study aimed to identify the effectiveness of ACBT in recovery pulmonary function in postoperative cardiac surgery. This study used pra experiment method involving 30 respondents with purposive sampling technique in adult surgery intensive care unit and Surgical ward. This group applies ACBT for 4 days: 2x/day, duration 15 minutes/session on 1st and 2nd day after surgery; 1x/day, duration 15 minutes/session on 3rd and 4th day after surgery. The Peak Expiratory Flow Rate is evaluated with Peak flow meter tools. The pretest data were obtainedd on the pre operation and the post test data were obtained on the 3rd day after surgery. This data analyzies with distribution mean and wilcoxon. The result distribution means of Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF) pretest is 420,33 l/minute and the post test is 432,33 l/minute. The result of wilcoxon test is p=0,001< α=0,05, it is show that significant effect in PEF (Peak Expiratory Flow) pre, 3rd day PEF. ACBT consists of deep breathing and hold breathing, so the air flow easier and the discharge mucous, on the last step is the huffing technique. It is not required stretgh to discharge mucous and reduce pain. ACBT can be used as a nursing intervention for airway management to recovery pulmonary function in postoperative cardiac surgery.
