Abstract

Introduction: Cataracts remain the leading cause of visual impairment and blindness among older adults in Indonesia. Family support plays a critical role in motivating elderly patients to undergo cataract surgery. This study aimed to examine the relationship between family support and motivation for cataract surgery among older adults at the Ophthalmology Clinic of Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang Hospital (RSU UMM). Methods: A descriptive correlational design with a cross-sectional approach was employed. The study population consisted of cataract patients aged ≥60 years, selected using purposive sampling, with a total of 40 respondents. Data on family support and motivation were collected using validated questionnaires and analyzed using Spearman’s rank correlation. Results: The results showed that 97.5% of respondents received high family support, and 92.5% exhibited high motivation to undergo surgery. Spearman correlation analysis revealed a significant positive correlation between family support and motivation for cataract surgery (r = 0.562, p < 0.001). Conclusion: These findings suggest that higher family support is associated with increased motivation for cataract surgery in older adults. Nursing and healthcare interventions should involve family members to enhance patient motivation and ensure successful surgical outcomes.

Abstract

Introduction: The Covid-19 pandemic has affected not only physical health but also the psychological well-being and quality of life of older adults. Anxiety related to health risks, social isolation, and economic uncertainty has become increasingly prevalent among the elderly population. This study aimed to determine the relationship between anxiety levels and quality of life among older adults during the Covid-19 pandemic in Dusun Karang Menjangan, Bulurejo Village, Tempursari District. Methods: A quantitative analytic observational design was used, involving 62 elderly respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using standardized questionnaires to measure anxiety levels and quality of life. Statistical analysis was performed using the Spearman’s rho correlation test to assess the relationship between anxiety and quality of life variables. Results: Findings indicated that most respondents experienced moderate anxiety (92%) and reported a moderate quality of life (87%) during the pandemic. The correlation test showed no significant relationship between anxiety and quality of life (p = 0.251; r = -0.148). The negative correlation value indicated an inverse but weak relationship, suggesting that higher anxiety levels tended to be associated with lower quality of life, although not statistically significant. Conclusion: There was no significant relationship between anxiety and quality of life among older adults during the Covid-19 pandemic. Despite this, the high prevalence of moderate anxiety highlights the importance of continuous psychosocial support, family involvement, and community-based interventions to maintain the mental and emotional well-being of the elderly.

Abstract

Introduction: Academic stress is a common psychological condition among nursing students, often resulting from heavy academic workloads, time pressure, and high performance expectations. Prolonged academic stress may negatively affect students’ physical and mental health, particularly their sleep quality, which plays a vital role in cognitive performance, emotional regulation, and overall well-being. This study aimed to determine the relationship between academic stress and sleep quality among Nursing Science students. Methods: This research employed an analytical observational design using a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of undergraduate Nursing Science students, with samples obtained through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using standardized questionnaires measuring academic stress levels and sleep quality. The data were analyzed using the Spearman rank correlation test to identify the relationship between variables. Results: The findings revealed that most respondents experienced moderate to high levels of academic stress and poor sleep quality. Statistical analysis showed a significant correlation between academic stress and sleep quality (p < 0.05), indicating that students with higher academic stress levels were more likely to experience poor sleep quality. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between academic stress and sleep quality among nursing students. Increased academic stress contributes to disrupted sleep patterns through both physiological and psychological mechanisms. Universities are encouraged to implement stress management programs, promote time management training, and provide mental health support services to enhance students’ well-being and academic performance.
