Abstract

Background. Reducing blood pressure in the elderly can be achieved through the utilization of alternative treatments, one of which is papaya juice. Hypertension in the elderly is highly perilous and can lead to fatal consequences. This research aimed to investigate the efficacy of papaya juice consumption in lowering blood pressure among the elderly population. Research Method. This research employed a Quasi-Experimental design with a Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design. The population studied consisted of all hypertensive patients at the Mojolangu Community Health Center. Sampling was conducted using a purposive sampling technique, with a total of 30 respondents – 15 assigned to the control group and 15 to the intervention group. Data collection utilized measurement tools including a Sphygmomanometer, stethoscope, and observation sheets. Data analysis was performed using Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests. Findings. "The results of the study using the Wilcoxon test revealed that the systolic blood pressure had a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05), and for diastolic blood pressure in the intervention group, a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05) was obtained. This indicates that papaya juice is effective in assisting with blood pressure reduction. Further assessment of the difference in systolic and diastolic blood pressure reduction was conducted through the Mann-Whitney test, yielding a p-value of 0.049, indicating a significant difference. Conclusion.  Papaya mengkal juice is highly effective and can be considered a viable alternative non-pharmacological therapy option to aid in lowering blood pressure in elderly individuals with hypertension.

Abstract

Background. Injuries from accidents in the school environment generally occur in the musculoskeletal system and must be treated quickly and appropriately. Injury will cause bleeding, bone deformity or disability and even death. Splint dressing relief can be performed by any trained layperson. One of the lay people trained at school is a student who has received basic emergency education. Improving fracture treatment in students can be done by online simulation using Streaming Tv Tube. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of fracture handling simulation through TV Tube streaming on student preparedness in handling fractures Research Method. This type of research is a quantitative study using a Quasi-Experimental research design with a pre-post-test without control by providing a TV Tube streaming simulation intervention in one group without a comparison. The research sample was 43 students of SMA Al Islam 1 Surakarta. Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon test Findings. The results of the Wilcoxon test showed a p-value of 0.000 so there was an effect of simulation on handling fractures through streaming TV tube on students' preparedness in handling fractures. Conclusion. There is a difference in students' preparedness in providing treatment for fractures before and after being given a fracture handling simulation intervention via TV Tube streaming. Before being given the intervention, it was shown that almost all respondents had almost ready preparedness, whereas after being given the intervention, most of the respondents had ready preparedness.
