Abstract

Introduction: The workload is a discrepancy between a worker's capacity or capability and the demands of the job that must be performed. An evenly distributed workload should be able to minimize the level of job-related stress among staff nurses in the hospital. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between workload and stress levels among nurses in the Inpatient Ward of secondary health service in Indonesia. Methods: This research employs a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique used in this study is probability sampling with a simple random sampling technique, where samples were selected randomly without considering strata within the population, which consists of 64 staff nurses working in the Inpatient Wards of Class II and Class III. Collecting data was took place in a secondary health service; Oto Iskandar Di Nata District Hospital Soreang, Bandung, Indonesia. The NASA-TLX (Task Load Index) questionnaire is utilized to measure workload, while the DASS-21 (Depression Anxiety Stress Scale 21) questionnaire is used to assess the stress levels among nurses. The statistical test in this study used the Chi Square test to determine the correlation between variables. Results: A total of 21 nurses (32.8%) experienced severe stress and 18 nurses (28.1%) had a heavy workload. The data analysis using the Chi-Square statistical test yielded a p-value of 0.001, which is less than the alpha level (α = 0.05) that indicate a relationship between workload and stress levels among staff nurses in the Inpatient Wards of Oto Iskandar Di Nata District Hospital Soreang Bandung, Indonesia. Conclusions: The workload has a strong correlation with stress levels among staff nurses in the Inpatient Wards of Oto Iskandar Di Nata District Hospital Soreang, Bandung, Indonesia. Further study for analyze other factors which has more influence to stress levels among nurses in the Inpatient settings is needed.

Abstract

Introduction: Diet compliance remains a major issue in the management of hypertension. To the most recent, face to face and telenursing interventions were implemented in hypertension management. However, the impact of telenursing on diet compliance remains unknown. This study aims to determine the impact of telenursing on diet compliance and blood pressure of patients with hypertension. Methods: A quantitative quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest without a Control Group was applied in this study. A purposive sampling technique was applied, and 30 individuals were selected. Data were analysis with inferential statistics McNemar test and the Paired Sample T-test. Results: There was an increase in hypertension patients' dietary compliance after telenursing intervention, from 6.7% to 100%. Additionally, there was a decrease in the average systolic blood pressure from 156.8 mmHg to 145.3 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure from 105 mmHg to 94.3 mmHg. There is an influence of Telenursing on improving dietary compliance and reducing blood pressure in hypertensive patients, with respective p-value <0.001. Conclusions Telenursing positively impacts on the diet compliance and blood pressure of patients with hypertension. Further research on telenursing development and innovation was warranty.
