Abstract

Maternal mental health is a crucial aspect that affects both maternal and fetal well-being. This study aims to explore the experiences of pregnant women in maintaining their mental health during pregnancy in Pontianak City. Using a phenomenological qualitative approach, six participants were interviewed in-depth to understand the challenges faced and the coping strategies employed. The findings indicate that pregnant women experience anxiety related to childbirth, physical changes, and social pressures. Support from partners, family, and healthcare professionals plays a vital role in maintaining their mental health. Additionally, coping strategies such as relaxation activities, information-seeking, and spiritual approaches are utilized to manage stress. These findings highlight the need for social support-based interventions and mental health education for pregnant women.

Abstract

Stroke is a non-communicable disease that commonly affects the elderly and can lead to verbal communication disorders, especially when it impacts the brain’s speech center. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of speech therapy using the “Suara AIUEO” pocket book in improving speech ability in patients with non-hemorrhagic stroke. The method used was a descriptive case study involving one patient who experienced motor aphasia due to stroke. The intervention was carried out by providing “AIUEO” speech therapy twice a day for three days, each session lasting 10–15 minutes. Speech ability was measured using the Derby Communication Scale, which includes aspects of expression, comprehension, and interaction. The results showed an improvement in the patient’s communication scores, particularly in expression and comprehension. The patient began to articulate vowels clearly and understand simple instructions. This therapy is not only effective but also simple, affordable, and can be performed by family members at home. With proper education, families can play a crucial role in the rehabilitation process. “AIUEO” therapy is recommended as part of a holistic nursing care approach for stroke patients with speech disorders.

Abstract

Background: Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a hematopoietic disorder characterized by cytopenia, dysplasia, and genetic abnormalities that can transform into acute myeloid leukemia. MDS cases generally occur in children and adults. This case report involves a 75-year-old elderly individual with no history of MDS or family illness. Purpose of the Study: This study serves as a reference for screening the nursing perspective of MDS in the elderly. Methods: This research is a descriptive case report of 1 case. Results: A 75-year-old elderly patient with 1 month of weakness and pallor, blood pressure of 140/90 mmHg with controlled hypertension for 1 year. Laboratory results showed correlation with MDS symptoms: leukopenia (leukocytes 2.85 x 10^3/µl), thrombocytopenia (platelets 1,000/µl), and anemia (Hb 4.3g/dl). Conclusions: Hematological data support the patient experiencing MDS. Additionally, the patient's exposure to pesticides for 40 years also strongly supports the occurrence of MDS as it is a triggering factor for MDS.
