Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which can attack all organs, especially the lungs. Tuberculosis remains the world's deadliest infectious disease, with more than 9 million infections and 1.7 million deaths per year. If not treated or managed correctly, this disease can lead to serious consequences and even death. The purpose of this literature review is to obtain an overview of the relationship between drug-taking supervisors (PMO) and the level of adherence to treatment visits in pulmonary TB patients from various perspectives and various similar studies. The research method used in this study is a literature review, which includes an analysis of 8 articles obtained from three databases: ProQuest, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. The search keywords used for article retrieval included "drug-taking supervisors or drug swallowing supervisor or PMO," "Tuberculosis or TB or TBC," and "drug adherence," using "AND" and "OR" as Boolean operators. Treatment monitoring is the main focus in supporting the success of pulmonary TB patients in the recovery period. Based on the findings of a review of 8 literature journals, there was an increase in recovery when supervisors took medication because the risk of forgetting during treatment visits was reduced, and the fear of PMO was reduced, causing pulmonary TB patients/patients to more regularly visit the nearest health facility that has been approved for treatment provided. Therefore, the drug-taking supervisor (PMO) on adherence to treatment visits is very important in breaking the cycle of pulmonary TB in the community.

Abstract

The risk of disease is related to congenital genetic factors, one of which is hypertension. Hypertension is a condition in which blood pressure increases from normal limits caused by unhealthy lifestyles such as excessive salt consumption, obesity, smoking, consumption of alcoholic beverages, and others. How to reduce high blood pressure is done by administering drugs and non-pharmacological therapy, one of which is progressive muscle relaxation therapy. The method used in this final project report is a literature review by reviewing 1 international article and 6 national articles. The collection process uses the PRISMA method (Prefer Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis), and data analysis uses Thematic Analysis to test articles using compare, contrast, and criticism. Progressive muscle relaxation therapy significantly reduces blood pressure. Blood pressure decreases due to relaxation after administration of progressive muscle relaxation therapy. The authors state that progressive muscle therapy can be used as educational material and can be implemented as a nursing intervention in lowering blood pressure in groups or families with a history of hypertension.
