Abstract

Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the respiratory tract characterized by recurrent episodes of dyspnea, wheezing, and coughing. Asthma management requires a comprehensive approach including pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapy. Pursed lip breathing as part of mind-body therapy can help improve breathing control and reduce anxiety in asthma patients. This case study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of pursed lip breathing application in improving breathing patterns and reducing anxiety levels in bronchial asthma patients. This research design is a descriptive case study of a 64-year-old female patient with bronchial asthma. Pursed lip breathing intervention was performed for 3 x 24 hours with evaluation of respiratory rate (RR), oxygen saturation (SpO₂), wheezing, anxiety level using Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS), and sleep quality. Data were collected through physical assessment, observation, and interviews. After 3 days of intervention, there were significant improvements in all measured parameters. Respiratory rate decreased from 28 breaths/minute to 20 breaths/minute, oxygen saturation increased from 93% to 97%, wheezing disappeared, anxiety level decreased from moderate category (score 18) to mild (score 8), and sleep quality improved from 4-5 hours/night to 7-8 hours/night. The patient was able to perform pursed lip breathing technique independently on the third day. Pursed lip breathing is effective as an independent nursing intervention in improving breathing patterns and reducing anxiety in bronchial asthma patients. This technique can be integrated into holistic nursing care as part of asthma patient self-care management.

Abstract

Scoliosis is a musculoskeletal disorder characterized by an abnormal curvature of the spine with a Cobb angle of ≥10°, and most often occurs in adolescents aged 10–18 years. Initial observations at SMK Bintara Rancaekek showed a low level of knowledge among eleventh-grade students regarding scoliosis, including signs and symptoms, risk factors, and prevention efforts. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of health education in improving students' knowledge about scoliosis through a quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design. Education was provided using presentation media, educational videos, leaflets, and a demonstration of the Adam's Forward Bend Test. The pretest results showed that students' knowledge was still low in various aspects, such as understanding the early signs of scoliosis (34.2%), risk factors (52.6%), and the function of physical examinations (15.8%). After being provided with education, there was a significant increase in knowledge in all indicators. Eighty percent of students were able to identify the type of idiopathic scoliosis, 72% understood the risk factors, 88% knew the Cobb angle criteria, and 92% understood the impact of severe scoliosis on the respiratory system. The improvement in posttest scores indicates that health education effectively increased students' understanding and awareness of scoliosis. Health education has been shown to be an important strategy in supporting the early detection and prevention of scoliosis in adolescents, thereby encouraging healthier postural behaviors in the school environment.
