Abstract

Gout arthritis is a non-communicable disease commonly found in the elderly, characterized by joint pain due to monosodium urate crystal deposition. Its high prevalence in Indonesia is associated with a high-purine diet, low physical activity, and limited knowledge of disease management. Complementary therapy using boiled bay leaves offers a safe and affordable method to reduce uric acid levels. This case study was conducted on four families with elderly members aged 60–75 years suffering from gouty arthritis in the Sananwetan Community Health Center, Blitar City. Nursing care was provided through assessment, nursing diagnosis, planning, intervention, implementation, and evaluation. Interventions included health education on a low-purine diet and administration of 10–15 bay leaves boiled in 200–400 ml of water, consumed once daily for six days. Data collection was performed through interviews, observations, and physical examinations, including uric acid level monitoring. The main nursing diagnoses established were ineffective family health management, chronic pain, knowledge deficit, readiness to improve coping, readiness to enhance knowledge, and impaired family processes. Results showed a reduction in uric acid levels (average 6.2 mg/dl), decreased joint pain, and improved family knowledge and involvement in patient care. This study highlights the effectiveness of integrating family-based health education and complementary therapy using bay leaves in managing gouty arthritis. Family support proved to be an essential factor in successful disease control and quality of care for elderly patients.

Abstract

Indonesia is currently entering a phase of population aging, with an increasing proportion of elderly people. Elderly individuals are more susceptible to psychosocial issues such as stress, loneliness, low self-esteem, and anxiety. This condition is exacerbated by a lack of physical activity, making them susceptible to health problems such as joint pain, degenerative diseases, and cognitive decline. These various issues increase the risk of depression in the elderly. Gardening occupational therapy is a non-pharmacological therapy that can be applied to elderly people with depression. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of gardening occupational therapy on reducing depression in the elderly. The study design was a quasi-experimental study with a pre-posttest without a control group. A sample of 20 elderly individuals was selected using a purposive sampling technique. The inclusion criteria were: no cognitive impairment, able to understand simple instructions, depression, no serious illness, and no severe physical mobility impairment. The study was conducted over a one-month period in Singonegaran Village, Kediri. The research instrument used was the Geriatric Depression Scale-15 (GDS-15). The results showed that gardening occupational therapy significantly reduced depression in the elderly, as indicated by a change in scores from an average of 9 to 4.3, with a p-value of 0.003. Gardening therapy, as an occupational intervention, provides simultaneous physical, social, and cognitive stimulation that plays a role in reducing depressive symptoms by increasing daily activity, social interaction, and a sense of personal accomplishment as participants engage in caring for and witnessing plant growth.
