Abstract

Coronary angiography, a critical diagnostic tool for coronary artery disease, often results in post-procedural pain that affects patient recovery and satisfaction. Acupressure, a non-invasive technique rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, has shown promise in reducing pain by stimulating endorphin release and enhancing physiological responses. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of acupressure in managing pain among patients undergoing coronary angiography. Four databases (Scopus, PubMed, ProQuest, and ScienceDirect) were searched for relevant articles published between 2020 and 2025, using keywords such as "acupressure," "pain," and "coronary angiography." Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines were used to assess study quality. Seven randomized controlled trials involving 774 participants were included. All studies reported significant pain reduction after acupressure interventions (p < 0.05), with durations ranging from 15 to 120 minutes at points like LI4 and PC6. Acupressure not only reduced pain but also stabilized vital signs and reduced anxiety. These findings suggest that acupressure is an effective intervention for post-coronary angiography pain, providing a strong basis for its integration into clinical practice. Further research is needed to standardize protocols and explore long-term effects.

Abstract

Adherence to antiretroviral (ARV) treatment in people with HIV/AIDS (ODHA) is shaped by the confidence and self-efficacy of ODHA in undergoing ARV therapy, which ultimately affects treatment success. This study aimed to analyse the relationship between health literacy, health beliefs, and self-efficacy in ARV treatment in ODHA in hospitals. This quantitative study with a cross-sectional design involved a sample of 160 ODHA patients undergoing ARV therapy at Hospital X, selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire that was tested for validity and reliability. Bivariate analysis was conducted using the chi-square test to assess the relationship between health literacy, health confidence, and self-efficacy. The results showed a significant relationship between health literacy and health confidence (p = 0.001) and self-efficacy (p = 0.002). Respondents with high health literacy mostly had health confidence and self-efficacy in the medium to high categories, while respondents with low health literacy tended to be in the low confidence and self-efficacy categories. Health literacy was significantly related to the confidence and self-efficacy of ODHA undergoing ARV treatment. Increasing health literacy, which is integrated with strengthening confidence and self-efficacy, is needed to support treatment adherence and improve the quality of life of ODHA.

Abstract

Thyroid cancer treatment can cause side effects that have a significant impact on the patient's quality of life and health, so effective interventions are needed to address these impacts. This study aimed to explore various interventions, their impact on the quality of life of thyroid cancer patients. This study used a scoping review approach with PRISMA-ScR for article selection. Articles were obtained from Scopus, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and ProQuest databases published between 2016 and 2024 using keywords related to thyroid cancer, quality of life, intervention and therapy. Of the initial 2043 articles, 9 articles met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The extracted data was analyzed using qualitative methods with identified were author, year of publication, research design, country, type of intervention, duration of intervention, research results, and JBI. The results of the analysis revealed three types of interventions in improving the quality of life of patients with thyroid cancer: (1) Psychological with mindfulness therapy, memory therapy, psychological nursing intervention, behavioral intervention, and technology-based therapy (mHealth); and (2) Physical with Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR), and home-based physical exercise (aerobics, resistance, flexibility). These findings underscore the benefits of interventions to improve the quality of life of thyroid cancer patients which include physical, psychological, and technology-based approaches.

Abstract

Orthopedic surgery aims to treat musculoskeletal disorders; however, postoperative recovery often presents functional limitations. Digital interventions and telerehabilitation are increasingly being applied in nursing, although evidence of their effectiveness remains limited. This systematic review evaluated the effectiveness of these technologies in supporting postoperative orthopedic recovery and identified their contributions to evidence-based nursing practice. A systematic review following the PRISMA guidelines was conducted using Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, and SAGE databases. Randomized controlled trials and quasi-experimental studies published between 2015 and 2025 involving adult postoperative orthopedic patients were included. The interventions were compared with conventional rehabilitation. Six outcome domains were evaluated: physical function, quality of life, pain, psychosocial aspects, self-efficacy, patient compliance and satisfaction. A total of 1,508 articles were identified, of which 16 studies met the inclusion criteria. Digital-based interventions and telerehabilitation consistently improved physical function (e.g., Timed Up and Go, Functional Independence Measure), increased quality of life (EQ-5D, SF-36), and reduced postoperative pain more rapidly than conventional rehabilitation did. Improvements were also observed in anxiety, depression, self-efficacy, health literacy, patient satisfaction, and adherence to the rehabilitation program. Digital and telerehabilitation interventions effectively support orthopedic postoperative recovery, positively affecting physical, psychosocial, and behavioral outcomes. A multimodal model integrating education, exercise, occupational therapy, and psychosocial support based on self-efficacy and biopsychosocial approaches yielded optimal results. Integration into surgical nursing practice is recommended, with attention to technological infrastructure and clinician training.
