Abstract

Introduction: Cognitive function in older adults often declines, particularly affecting short-term memory. Older adults may also experience difficulties in learning new information, adapting to changes, and recognizing people, places, and objects. One approach to improving cognitive function is memory games therapy. This study aims to examine the effect of memory game therapy on the cognitive function of older people. Methods: This research employed a quasi-experimental design using a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. The study was conducted in September 2024 in Tuban Regency. The population consisted of 36 older adults experiencing cognitive decline, and a sample of 33 participants was selected using a purposive sampling technique. The research instrument was the "Memory Card," and cognitive function was measured using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test with a significance level of α = 0.05. Results: Most respondents were female (54.5%), and 63.6% were aged 60–74. Most participants had completed senior high school (42.5%). Before the intervention, 30.3% of respondents had severe cognitive impairment. After the intervention, 45.5% had mild impairment, and 15.2% showed normal cognitive function. Memory games therapy significantly affected cognitive function in older adults (ρ = 0.000). Conclusion: The findings of this study demonstrate the effectiveness of memory game therapy in improving the cognitive function of older adults. Therefore, it is recommended that nurses incorporate memory game therapy as an intervention in Older Adults' Integrated Service Post activities.

Abstract

HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that can cause AIDS by attacking white blood cells called CD4 cells, so it can damage the immune system. AIDS (Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome) or a collection of various disease symptoms resulting from a decrease in an individual's immune system due to HIV. In 2014, Indonesia was listed as a country that received a red report card from The Joint United Nation Program On HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS). This is because Indonesia is considered to pay less attention to HIV/AIDS patients and the mortality rate of HIV/AIDS sufferers in Indonesia is still relatively high.

Abstract

The level of knowledge can influence whether a person takes preventive measures against the risk of disease. People with high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol and obesity are at risk of developing heart failure. The risk can be prevented if the sufferer is aware and adopts a healthy lifestyle. The aim of this non-profit activity is to spread knowledge about risk factors and proactively increase the number of people affected by risk groups. The partners of this charity are residents of Semanding Village who are included in the risk group for heart failure. The methods used by the team are lectures and demonstrations, community service activities lead to increased knowledge before and after training, this is shown by seven questions that can be answered before training 2-3 and post training 5-6. It was concluded that health education provided to people at risk of heart failure will most likely increase knowledge, prevention efforts and positive attitudes of the community towards heart failure.

Abstract

Health problems are increasing along with the development of diseases. One of them is Urinary Tract Infection (UTI). UTI is a condition where bacteria or microbes grow and multiply in the urinary tract in significant numbers. Generally, UTI is divided into two types: lower UTI and upper UTI. Lower UTI is more common, usually occurring due to bacteria entering through the urethra. Several factors can cause UTI, including age, gender, medication use, catheterization, urinary habits, genital hygiene, and other predisposing factors. In general, women experience UTI episodes more frequently than men, with 20-30% of women experiencing recurrent UTIs. Neonates, adolescent girls, and elderly women are particularly susceptible. The prevalence of UTI in Indonesia is relatively high, with around 180,000 new cases per year. Diagnosis of UTI is based on bacterial count, with Escherichia coli being the most common causative bacteria. Prevention efforts are crucial, especially through health education targeting women. This study aims to educate PKK mothers in Temayang Village about UTI to increase awareness and prevention practices. PKK is a grassroots development movement aimed at achieving family welfare, involving community education and empowerment. The implementation involves a 5-table method with registration, consumption, audience, operator, and MC tables, focusing on UTI education and prevention. Such socialization activities are essential to enhance community knowledge and awareness in preventing and managing health issues like UTIs through education, discussion, and practical tips on clean and healthy living practices.

Abstract

Type II Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) requires strict dietary management to maintain glycemic control. Family instrumental support plays a critical role in patients’ compliance with dietary recommendations, yet the relationship between the two remains underexplored in specific populations. This study investigates the association between family instrumental support and dietary compliance among patients with T2DM. This study employed a non-experimental, observational, analytic design. Sixty-six participants diagnosed with T2DM were recruited using a consecutive sampling technique. This study employed two main instruments: the Family Support Questionnaire and the Dietary Compliance Questionnaire for Type 2 Diabetes. Data were analyzed using Spearman's Rho test to evaluate the correlation between family instrumental support and dietary adherence. Ethical approval for this research was obtained from the Health Research Ethics Committee of the Nahdlatul Ulama Institute of Health Sciences, Tuban, under approval number 347/0084223523/LEPK.IIKNU/XII/2024. The findings indicated that most participants (80.3%) reported receiving strong instrumental support from their families, while 78.5% adhered to dietary recommendations for managing Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Among those who received high levels of support, 66.7% demonstrated dietary adherence. Statistical analysis revealed a significant positive correlation between family instrumental support and dietary compliance (p = 0.002; α < 0.05). Instrumental support from family members plays a crucial role in improving dietary adherence among individuals with T2DM. Engagement in routine tasks such as meal preparation and grocery procurement substantially facilitates compliance with medical nutrition therapy and contributes to optimal glycemic regulation.

Abstract

Hypertension is a major global health concern linked to heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure, often worsened by inactivity, poor diet, and chronic stress. This study assessed changes in average blood pressure among elderly hypertensive patients before and after PMR therapy. This study applied a basic quantitative approach using a one-group pre-test and post-test design. Thirty elderly people with hypertension were chosen from the Elderly Social Services Home in Turusgede, Rembang, using purposive sampling. The intervention involved progressive muscle relaxation (PMR), which was done three times over one week, with each session lasting 10-15 minutes. Blood pressure was measured before and after the intervention using a sphygmomanometer. Data analysis was conducted using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The average age of participants was 66.30 ± 8.10 years, with a 95% confidence interval ranging from 63.27 to 69.33 years. Most of the participants were female, comprising 53.3% of the sample. Before the intervention, the average systolic blood pressure recorded was 143.33 mmHg, which decreased to a median value of 132.67 mmHg following the therapy. Statistical analysis confirmed a significant change between the pre- and post-intervention readings (p = 0.000; α < 0.05). PMR has been shown to effectively lower both systolic and diastolic blood pressure in older adults with hypertension. As a non-drug approach, it provides a straightforward, safe, and easily implementable technique that can be used regularly to aid in controlling blood pressure among the elderly.
