Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are a global health threat, causing high morbidity and mortality rates worldwide, including in Indonesia. The Special Region of Yogyakarta ranks second nationally in the prevalence of NCDs. One of the preventive and control measures for NCDs is through Integrated NCD Posts (Posbindu PTM), targeting individuals aged 15 to 49 years. Recognizing the importance of involving adolescents in NCD prevention and control, this community service program aims to provide education and training for adolescents on NCDs and risk factor detection. The activities were conducted using lecture and roleplay methods, involving 12 adolescents as active participants. Participants were given an understanding of the functions and importance of Posbindu PTM, as well as strategies for preventing and controlling NCDs. During the training, participants took turns practicing as Posbindu PTM cadres, performing duties according to procedures at stations one through five. Evaluation results indicated a significant increase in participants' knowledge, with the average score improving from 71.6 to 87.5. It is expected that adolescents' involvement in this program can strengthen early detection and control efforts for NCD risk factors.

Abstract

Background & Objective: Anxiety is commonly experienced by patients scheduled for surgery and can affect their physiological responses and readiness. This study aimed to determine the effect of progressive muscle relaxation on anxiety levels in patients scheduled for surgery. Method: This study used a case study design involving three adult patients scheduled for non-emergency surgery at a regional hospital in Magelang. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Anxiety levels were measured before and after the intervention using a structured questionnaire instrument. The intervention consisted of progressive muscle relaxation performed for 25–30 minutes in a comfortable environment. Data were presented descriptively and analyzed by comparing pre- and post-intervention anxiety scores. Result: All respondents experienced moderate to severe anxiety before the intervention. After the intervention, anxiety levels decreased in all respondents. The mean anxiety score decreased from 19.3 to 15.6, with a difference of 3.7 points. There was also a shift in anxiety categories from severe to moderate and from moderate to mild. Conclusion: Progressive muscle relaxation is effective in reducing anxiety levels in preoperative patients and can be applied as a non-pharmacological nursing intervention to improve patient readiness for surgery.

Abstract

Background & Objectives : Prolonged immobilization following laparotomy under general anesthesia poses serious risks including muscle weakness, deep vein thrombosis, atelectasis, and extended hospital stays. To describe the implementation of ROM exercise to improve early mobilization in post-laparotomy patients under general anesthesia. Methods: A descriptive qualitative case study involving two post-laparotomy patients under general anesthesia at the surgical ward of RSUD Daerah Kota Magelang (October-November 2025). ROM exercise was implemented for two consecutive days, initiated within 24 hours postoperatively. Mobility level was assessed using the Johns Hopkins Highest Level of Mobility (JH-HLM) scale (0-8), twice daily. Results: The first patient (post exploratory laparotomy due to appendix perforation with peritonitis) showed a JH-HLM improvement from score 1 to score 5 (walking in room) within two days. The second patient (post laparotomy due to ovarian cyst with torsion) improved from score 1 to score 6 (walking in hallway) despite initial barriers of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and anxiety. Both patients demonstrated reduced pain NRS scores, and no complications were observed during implementation. Conclusions: ROM exercise initiated within the first 24 hours after laparotomy under general anesthesia is proven effective and safe in promoting early mobilization. An integrated approach encompassing pain management, PONV treatment, and psychological support is essential to optimize implementation outcomes.
