Abstract

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) occurs due to infection that occurs in the upper and lower urinary tract, where the presence of bacteria ranges from around 10.5 colonies per milliliter (CFU/ml) in a urine sample. To treat the main complaint in the form of pain, nurses can intervene with pharmacological therapy in the form of antibiotics and non-pharmacological therapy such as warm compresses to relieve pain, namely by applying warm compresses to the painful area. The purpose of writing this scientific paper is so that researchers can provide health education to patients and carry out nursing care for patients suffering from UTI with complaints of acute pain at the Kisaran City Hospital. This study uses a descriptive approach in the form of a case study. The results showed that giving warm compresses using WWZ (warm water zack) or better known as hot bubbles to the patient's painful area was proven to be able to reduce pain levels. In client 1, the pain that was initially on a scale of 6-7 decreased to 3-4, while for client 2, the pain level that was initially on a scale of 5-6 decreased to 2-3. The identified nursing diagnosis is acute pain related to physiological injury, indicated by pain during urination. The conclusion is that giving warm compresses is one of the effective non-pharmacological methods to reduce the pain felt by clients suffering from Urinary Tract Infection.

Abstract

Falls in the elderly are a leading cause of serious injury, which can significantly impact quality of life. Therefore, health education regarding emergency measures is crucial to improve the preparedness of the elderly and their surrounding communities in dealing with such situations. Given the high rate of falls in the elderly, various studies indicate that approximately one-quarter to one-third of elderly people in the community experience at least one fall per year, and this figure can exceed one-third in the very elderly, making falls a significant public health issue. This community service activity aimed to provide basic understanding and skills regarding fall management in the elderly through an interactive lecture. Fifty elderly participants participated in the activity and a three-person implementation team with clearly defined roles. Evaluation results indicated an increase in participants' understanding of appropriate emergency steps after a fall, as well as the creation of effective communication between participants and the presenters. This activity had a positive impact in increasing awareness and knowledge of the elderly regarding the importance of prompt and appropriate fall management. Continuing health education and practical training are recommended as follow-up measures to strengthen the capacity of the elderly to respond to emergencies.
