Abstract

Patients undergoing emergency hemodialysis therapy will experience anxiety caused by financial crises, fear of death, and stressors. One of the effective distraction techniques used to overcome anxiety in patients is using Murottal Al-Qur'an Audio. The brain will release neuropeptides that can provide comfort and pleasure when stimulated by Murottal Al-Qur'an Audio, which will lessen the patient’s anxiety. The research design used is quantitative research with a pre-experimental One-Group Pretest-Posttest Design approach. The population in this study were patients undergoing Cito hemodialysis who met the inclusion criteria, with a sample of 31 respondents. The sampling technique used accidental sampling. The research results were obtained before Murottal Al-Qur’an Audio was carried out from a total of 31 respondents: 18 (58.1%) respondents experienced severe anxiety, 12 (38.7%) respondents experienced moderate anxiety, and 1 (3.2%) respondent experienced mild anxiety. After carrying out Murottal Al-Qur'an Audio, it was found that 21 (67.7%) respondents experienced mild anxiety, 10 (32.3%) respondents experienced moderate anxiety, and none (0%) respondents experienced severe anxiety. After analysis using the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test, the results showed p-value = 0.000, indicating Murottal Al-Qur'an Audio's influence on the Anxiety Level of Cito Hemodialysis Patients. It is hoped that hospital management can use Audio Murottal Al-Qur'an as a non-pharmacological technique/alternative therapy in providing nursing care to reduce the level of anxiety in patients undergoing Cito hemodialysis.

Abstract

Background: Gout arthritis is a prevalent degenerative joint disease among the elderly, characterized by hyperuricemia and joint pain due to monosodium urate crystal deposition. In Indonesia, its prevalence reaches 11.9%, highlighting the need for accessible, non-pharmacological interventions. Pineapple (Ananas comosus L.) contains bromelain and vitamin C, which exhibit anti-inflammatory and uricosuric properties. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of pineapple juice therapy on pain reduction and uric acid levels in elderly patients with gout arthritis. Methods: A quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was employed. Thirty elderly gout patients in Kotokan Hamlet, Jatiroto Village, were selected using a total sampling method. The intervention consisted of 200 mL of fresh pineapple juice consumed daily for seven days. Pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), and serum uric acid levels were assessed with a portable uric acid meter. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test (α = 0.05). Results: Post-intervention, pain levels decreased significantly, with 73% of respondents reporting mild pain and 27% reporting no pain. Uric acid levels also shifted significantly from 100% hyperuricemic at baseline to 33% within normal limits and 67% below normal post-intervention (p = 0.000). Conclusion: Pineapple juice therapy effectively reduces both pain intensity and uric acid levels in elderly individuals with gout arthritis. It is recommended as a safe, cost-effective, and complementary non-pharmacological therapy for community-based gout management.
