Abstract

Sports accidents can have a very significant impact on various aspects of life. However, public knowledge regarding this still needs to be improved and uneven, so it is essential to disseminate information related to preventing and handling sports accidents. This study aimed to determine the effect of health education on public knowledge in the prevention and early handling of sports accidents. This study was a pre-experimental study with a one-group pre-post-test approach. The research sample consisted of 230 respondents and was conducted using an accidental sampling technique. Data analysis was done by looking at the difference in pre-test and post-test values using the Wilcoxon difference test. The results of the study showed that before health education was given, the average value of respondents' knowledge was 59.30 ± 26.21.Meanwhile, after being given health education, the average score increased to 84.87 ± 20.27. Bivariate analysis showed a statistically significant difference with a p-value <0.001. This shows a difference in public knowledge about sports accidents before and after being given health education. There is a need for activities like this to be carried out in other communities and society in general so that the dissemination of information and public understanding related to sports accidents will improve and the impact of delays in handling injuries can be minimized. Keywords: Health education; knowledge; sports accidents.

Abstract

Cardiovascular disorders have been associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). One of the emerging complications is acute pericarditis, characterized by inflammation of the pericardium. Pericarditis is a complication that arises after COVID-19 infection because the virus can cause widespread inflammation, including in the pericardium, the outer layer of the heart. Risk factors that may exacerbate pericarditis in COVID-19 patients include the severity of COVID-19 disease, an immunocompromised state, or an excessive immune system response to infection. The aim of the study is to describe a case of acute pericarditis that occurred after Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrom - Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. This study used a case study design. This study was conducted on one of the patients who experienced pericarditis after Covid-19. Researchers conducted nursing assessments and analyzed nursing data. Data analysis was carried out descriptively to describe the results of nursing assessment. A few days after experiencing SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia, 51-year-old Mr. S. developed chest pain that became more painful during exertion, and received a diagnosis of acute pericarditis. As a result, medical treatment was escalated with clinical improvement continuing to improve. Electrocardiography showed elevation in ST segment and depression in PR interval. Echocardiography showed grade I diastolic phase disruption. Acute pericarditis is a rare complication following viral infection. This report shows the assessment and management of acute pericarditis so as to prevent complications that can occur.
