Abstract

Introduction: Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by difficulty in initiating or maintaining sleep despite having the opportunity to rest. This condition can lead to disturbances in daytime activities, fatigue, and frequent awakenings during the night. Furthermore, insomnia can have negative effects on health, such as increasing the risk of heart disease, metabolic disorders, cognitive decline, and even mortality. Adolescents are among those at risk of experiencing insomnia, as individuals generally require about 8–10 hours of sleep each night. However, this duration is often reduced due to busy school schedules and social activities, which can trigger sleep disorders such as insomnia. One non-pharmacological approach to overcoming insomnia is foot hydrotherapy using pandan leaves (Pandanus amaryllifolius). The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of pandan leaf foot hydrotherapy on insomnia among adolescents. Methods: This research used a quantitative with a one-group pretest- posttest design. The population consisted of 93 adolescents experiencing insomnia at Jembrana, Indonesia. The sampling technique used in this study was convenience sampling. The instruments used included a demographic data sheet and the Jakarta Insomnia Rating Scale (KSPBJ-IRS) questionnaire. Results: The data analysis was conducted using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test, and the results showed a p-value of < 0.001 before and after the intervention. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that foot hydrotherapy using pandan leaves (Pandanus amaryllifolius) has an effect on reducing insomnia in adolescents.

Abstract

Introduction: Neck muscle pain is commonly associated with musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and represents one of the most frequent complaints among manual labor workers. This condition is largely influenced by occupational factors, particularly repetitive activities, heavy physical workload, and non-ergonomic working postures. Non-pharmacological interventions are increasingly recommended as alternative and preventive strategies for managing work-related musculoskeletal pain. This study aimed to determine the effect of warm quartz sand neck pillow therapy on neck muscle pain among pottery porter workers at CV Puspa Jembrana. Methods: This study employed a pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The study population consisted of 90 active workers at CV Puspa Jembrana. A total of 81 participants were selected using quota sampling. Neck pain intensity was measured before and after the intervention, and data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Results: The findings demonstrated a statistically significant difference in neck muscle pain intensity before and after the intervention (p = 0.001), indicating a reduction in pain following the application of warm quartz sand neck pillow therapy. Conclusion: Warm quartz sand neck pillow therapy has a significant effect in reducing neck muscle pain among pottery porter workers. This intervention may serve as an effective non-pharmacological nursing strategy for managing work-related neck pain in manual labor populations.

Abstract

Introduction: Primary dysmenorrhea is a common complaint among adolescent girls and can significantly interfere with daily activities and academic performance. One non-pharmacological intervention that may help alleviate dysmenorrhea pain is the use of a lumbar corset, which provides postural support and reduces muscle tension in the lower back region. Methods: This study employed a pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The study population consisted of female students at SMP Negeri 2 Melaya who experienced primary dysmenorrhea. A total of 47 participants were selected using convenience sampling. The intervention involved wearing a lumbar corset for 2 hours per day during menstruation. Pain intensity was measured before and after the intervention using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Results: Prior to the intervention, most participants reported moderate to severe pain levels. Following the use of the lumbar corset, a significant reduction in pain intensity was observed. The Wilcoxon test showed a Z value of −6.283 with p < 0.001, indicating a statistically significant difference between pain scores before and after the intervention. Conclusion: The findings indicate that lumbar corset use is effective in reducing primary dysmenorrhea pain among adolescent girls. Further studies employing a control group and larger sample sizes are recommended to strengthen the evidence and generalizability of the results.
