Abstract

Background: Nausea and vomiting are the most common side effects during chemotherapy and often disrupt patients' quality of life. The purpose of this implementation is to assess the effect of peppermint aromatherapy administration on reducing nausea and vomiting in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. The design is a one-group pretest-posttest, with implementation carried out at the Medical Installation of Arifin Achmad Hospital, Riau Province, over eight weeks, including preparation, pre-test, intervention, post-test, analysis, and dissemination. Two patients who meet the inclusion criteria participated as subjects. Human resources involved include researchers, academic supervisors, head nurses, and implementing nurses. The intervention was given through inhalation of peppermint aromatherapy using a nebulizer three times per chemotherapy cycle. Dissemination is planned through internal hospital presentations, academic forums, scientific publications, and community education. The results of the implementation showed a significant decrease in the intensity and frequency of nausea and vomiting based on RINVR measurements, accompanied by an increase in patients' subjective comfort without side effects. In conclusion, peppermint aromatherapy is effective as a non-pharmacological complementary therapy to reduce nausea and vomiting in chemotherapy patients and has the potential to be integrated into oncology nursing practice. Success evaluation was conducted through process observation, pre- and post-intervention measurements using RINVR, patient interviews, and nursing documentation audits. Data collection methods included direct observation, structured interviews, filling out RINVR instruments, and reviewing care records. This implementation supports the development of evidence-based nursing and can serve as a basis for developing SOPs for peppermint aromatherapy in the chemotherapy room.Keywords: Peppermint aromatherapy; nausea and vomiting; chemotherapy; complementary therapy; oncology nursing

Abstract

ABSTRACT Pregnancy is a process that begins with the release of a mature egg cell in the oviduct which then meets sperm so that the two unite to form a cell that will grow. High risk pregnancy is a pregnancy that will cause greater harm and complications to both the mother and the fetus in the womb and can cause death, pain, disability, discomfort and dissatisfaction. Complications during pregnancy can be categorized as a risk of pregnancy, as much as 90%. Maternal death according to the World Health Organization (WHO) is death that occurs during pregnancy, childbirth, or within 42 days after delivery from causes that are directly or indirectly related to the pregnancy. The aim of this research is to determine the influence of health education using animated video media on pregnant women's knowledge about high-risk pregnancies. The method used was Quasy Experiment. The results obtained were respondents' knowledge before being given health education about High Risk Pregnancy with a median of 1.23. Meanwhile, respondents' knowledge after being given health education was a median of 1.55. So a p value of 0.000 can be obtained. Thus, Ha 0.05 means that it is accepted or there is an influence of Health Education Using Animation Video Media on Pregnant Women's Knowledge about High Risk Pregnancy, with the significance value (p) in the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test being 0.300 (p 0.05), so it is based on the normality test Kolomogorov-Smirnov data is normally distributed. Meanwhile, the significance value (p) in the Shapiro-Wilk test is 0.650 (p 0.05), so that based on the Shapiro-Wilk normality test the data is normally distributed. The hope is that through the results of this research, respondents are asked to continue to increase their knowledge regarding pregnancy examinations, not only through health workers. but can be done through the media and other information places Keywords: Health Education, Animation Video, Knowledge of Pregnant Women, High Risk Pregnancy  ABSTRAK Kehamilan adalah suatu proses yang diawali dengan keluarnya sel telur yang matang pada saluran telur yang kemudian bertemu dengan sperma sehingga keduanya menyatu membentuk sel yang akan tumbuh.

Abstract

Triple Elimination testing is an important strategy to prevent the transmission of HIV, syphilis, and hepatitis B from mother to child. However, currently the coverage of check-ups for pregnant women is still not optimal. This study aimed to explore the role of family and health worker’s support in strengthening pregnant women's decisions to undergo Triple Elimination tests based on Health Belief Model perspective. This study used a qualitative design with a descriptive approach. Seven pregnant mothers were selected using purposive sampling in the working area of Sidomulyo Health Center, Pekanbaru City. Data were collected through in-depth interviews using semi-structured guidelines and manually analysed using the Directed Content Analysis method. The analysis produced one main theme, which is the role of family and healthcare support as reinforcing factors in pregnant women's decision-making, consisting of two subthemes: family support as a decision booster and healthcare support as a booster of pregnant women's confidence. Family support comes in the form of attention, motivation, accompaniment, and emotional reinforcement, while healthcare providers offer education, counselling, and therapeutic communication that increase confidence and reduce doubts regarding Triple Elimination checks. Family and healthcare support are important factors that reinforce a pregnant woman's decision to undergo Triple Elimination check-ups by boosting confidence, a sense of security, and understanding of the benefits of early detection. Antenatal services need to optimize family involvement, especially the husband, and enhance education and therapeutic communication by healthcare workers to increase pregnant women's participation in Triple Elimination check-ups

Abstract

The development of information and communication technology has led to significant changes in the provision of nursing care. This study examines nurses' experiences with using Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) for nursing care documentation. This study aims to explore the experiences of nurses using EMR in documenting nursing care. This qualitative study uses a phenomenological approach involving 10 nurses, including the head of the room, team leader, and implementing nurses. Participants were selected using purposive sampling techniques, with the following criteria: nurses who perform nursing care documentation using an Electronic Medical Record (EMR), nurses working in inpatient, outpatient, emergency (IGD), and intensive care units, nurses with a work experience of at least 2 years, and nurses who are willing to participate. The study was conducted at a private hospital in Pekanbaru. Data were collected through interviews and analysed using thematic analysis, employing the Colaizzi method. Result: The analysis revealed three themes: the benefits of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) in nursing services, supporting factors for the implementation of EMR, and inhibiting factors for the implementation of EMR. Based on the study results, it can be concluded that nurses feel the effectiveness and efficiency of EMR in documenting. However, during its implementation, there are still obstacles that require attention from hospital management. Thus, providing health services becomes optimal and efficient for patients and health workers.

Abstract

Ineffective discharge planning results in discontinuity of patient care at home. This condition worsens patient outcomes, leading to patients returning to health services with the same medical history or with new and more severe complications. This study aims to explore the experience of healthcare workers and patients in implementing discharge planning for heart failure patients. This study employed a phenomenological design with a qualitative, interpretative approach. The participants consisted of 17 individuals: ten health workers from a private hospital in Pekanbaru, two heart specialists, three nurses, two pharmacists, three nutritionists, and seven patients with heart failure who were planning to return home. Participant recruitment was conducted using a purposive sampling method. Data collection was through in-depth interviews, and data analysis used the Colaizzi analysis stages. Four themes are interrelated with the studied phenomena: the information received by patients regarding discharge planning, specific education for heart failure patients, the challenges faced by healthcare workers in completing the discharge planning form, and the important components of discharge planning for heart failure patients. The experiences of healthcare workers and patients in implementing discharge planning in this study reveal that there are still inadequacies that concern both healthcare workers and patients. The themes identified in this study can contribute to the development of discharge planning forms for heart failure patients. Therefore, this study on healthcare services suggests that it may reduce the recurrence rate of heart failure in patients.

Abstract

Background: Oral mucositis (OM) is a common and severe complication in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy, with a prevalence of 20-40% in chemotherapy patients and up to 90% in those receiving head and neck radiotherapy. The pathophysiology of OM involves a complex inflammatory process starting from initiation by free radicals to epithelial healing. Risk factors such as chemotherapy drug types, older age, female gender, immune status, and poor oral hygiene influence OM occurrence. Standard prevention and treatment approaches like cryotherapy, palifermin, and lidocaine are often limited by side effects and cost. Purpose: To analyze the therapeutic potential of honey as a natural agent in the prevention and management of oral mucositis among oncology patients. Method: This literature review analyzed findings from Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) assessing both oral and topical honey for oral mucositis management in cancer patients. Results: The review showed that honey effectively reduces the incidence and severity of OM, accelerates mucosal healing, alleviates pain, and improves patients’ quality of life. Local natural honey demonstrated more consistent results than Manuka honey, which may be cytotoxic at high concentrations. Optimal therapeutic effects were achieved through regular honey application three times daily for 2–6 weeks, primarily via modulation of inflammatory and oxidative stress pathways and stimulation of epithelial regeneration through phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and enzymatic antioxidants. Conclusion: Honey is a safe, well-tolerated, and clinically effective adjunctive therapy for preventing and managing oral mucositis in oncology patients. However, variations in honey composition and treatment protocols require further standardized clinical trials to confirm its efficacy and optimize its use.   Keywords: Chemotherapy; Honey; Inflammation; Oral Mucositis; Radiotherapy.   Pendahuluan: Oral mucositis (OM) merupakan komplikasi umum dan berat yang terjadi pada pasien kanker yang menjalani kemoterapi dan radioterapi, dengan prevalensi 20–40% pada pasien kemoterapi dan mencapai 90% pada pasien yang menerima radioterapi kepala dan leher. Patofisiologi OM melibatkan proses inflamasi kompleks yang dimulai dari inisiasi oleh radikal bebas hingga penyembuhan epitel. Faktor risiko seperti jenis obat kemoterapi, usia lanjut, jenis kelamin perempuan, status imun, dan kebersihan mulut yang buruk memengaruhi terjadinya OM. Pendekatan pencegahan dan pengobatan standar seperti krioterapi, palifermin, dan lidokain seringkali terbatas karena efek samping dan biaya yang tinggi. Tujuan: Untuk menganalisis potensi terapeutik madu sebagai agen alami dalam pencegahan dan penatalaksanaan oral mucositis pada pasien onkologi. Metode: Tinjauan literatur ini menganalisis temuan dari Randomized Controlled Trials (RCT) yang menilai efektivitas madu, baik secara oral maupun topikal, dalam penatalaksanaan oral mucositis pada pasien kanker. Hasil: Madu secara efektif menurunkan insidensi dan tingkat keparahan OM, mempercepat penyembuhan mukosa, mengurangi nyeri, serta meningkatkan kualitas hidup pasien. Madu alami lokal menunjukkan hasil klinis yang lebih konsisten dibandingkan madu Manuka, yang pada konsentrasi tinggi dapat bersifat sitotoksik. Efek terapeutik optimal diperoleh melalui aplikasi madu secara teratur tiga kali sehari selama 2–6 minggu, terutama melalui modulasi jalur inflamasi dan stres oksidatif serta stimulasi regenerasi epitel oleh senyawa fenolik, flavonoid, dan enzim antioksidan. Simpulan: Madu merupakan terapi tambahan yang aman, dapat ditoleransi dengan baik, dan efektif secara klinis untuk pencegahan serta penanganan oral mucositis pada pasien onkologi. Namun, variasi komposisi madu dan protokol pengobatan memerlukan uji klinis lebih lanjut yang terstandarisasi untuk memastikan efektivitas dan mengoptimalkan penggunaannya.   Kata Kunci: Inflamasi; Madu; Oral mucositis; Penyembuhan; Terapi kanker.

Abstract

Background: Postpartum blues is a mild psychological disorder commonly experienced by mothers after childbirth, especially primiparous mothers who have no prior experience dealing with physical and emotional changes after delivery. This condition is characterized by symptoms such as mood swings, anxiety, frequent crying, and emotional fatigue. One important protective factor in preventing postpartum blues is family support. Purpose: To systematically review family support in preventing postpartum blues among primiparous mothers. Method: A literature review was conducted by searching for relevant scientific articles from databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Semantic Scholar, ResearchGate, and BMC. The analyzed articles were published between 2020 and 2024. Results: The analysis shows that family support, especially from husbands, has a significant relationship in preventing and reducing the risk of postpartum blues. Emotional support, practical assistance, open communication, and active involvement in infant care are key elements in supporting maternal mental health. Qualitative studies also indicate that family support provides a sense of being valued and strengthens mothers’ ability to cope with postpartum changes. Conclusion: Family support has been proven to play an important role as an effective non-medical intervention in preventing postpartum blues among primiparous mothers.   Keywords: Family Support; Postpartum Blues; Primiparous Mothers.   Pendahuluan: Postpartum blues merupakan gangguan psikologis ringan yang umum dialami oleh ibu setelah melahirkan, terutama pada ibu primipara yang belum memiliki pengalaman menghadapi perubahan fisik dan emosional pascapersalinan. Kondisi ini ditandai oleh gejala seperti perubahan suasana hati, kecemasan, mudah menangis, dan kelelahan emosional. Salah satu faktor protektif yang penting dalam mencegah terjadinya postpartum blues adalah dukungan dari keluarga. Tujuan: Untuk mengkaji secara sistematis dukungan keluarga dalam mencegah postpartum blues pada ibu primipara. Metode: Literature review dengan menelusuri artikel ilmiah yang relevan dari database Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Semantic Scholar, ResearchGate, dan BMC. Artikel yang dianalisis dipublikasikan dalam rentang tahun 2020 hingga 2024.

Abstract

Background: Sectio caesarea is a surgical procedure that may cause psychological problems, particularly preoperative anxiety. Anxiety experienced before surgery can negatively affect the patient’s physiological and psychological condition, postoperative recovery, pain perception, and overall satisfaction with health services. Preoperative education provided by nurses is considered an important non-pharmacological intervention to improve patient understanding and reduce anxiety before surgery. Purpose: To analyze the role of nurses in providing preoperative education to reduce anxiety in patients undergoing sectio caesarea based on evidence from previous studies. Method: This study used a literature review design with a systematic descriptive approach. Literature searching was conducted through PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and Garuda databases using the keywords “preoperative education”, “cesarean section”, “perioperative patient education”, and “anxiety reduction”. Articles published between 2020–2025 in English and Indonesian were included. The selected studies were analyzed using the PICOT approach consisting of Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome, and Time Results: A total of 10 studies met the inclusion criteria. Most studies reported that preoperative education effectively reduced anxiety levels in patients undergoing sectio caesarea. Educational interventions delivered through audiovisual media, structured teaching, and preoperative counseling improved patient understanding, self-efficacy, early mobilization, postoperative pain management, and patient satisfaction. Audiovisual-based education was identified as the most effective method because it enhanced patient comprehension and psychological readiness before surgery.   Keywords: Anxiety; Cesarean Section; Nursing Education; Preoperative Education; Sectio Caesarea.
