Abstract

Background: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing hemodialysis are vulnerable to stress and psychological disturbances due to the long-term, repetitive, and lifelong nature of the treatment. Aromatherapy is a non-pharmacological intervention that has been applied in various clinical settings to support psychological well-being. However, the scientific evidence regarding the use of aromatherapy for stress management in hemodialysis patients remains fragmented and has not been systematically mapped. Methods: This scoping review was conducted in accordance with the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology and reported following the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines. Literature searches were performed in PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases. Study selection was based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data from included studies were extracted and analyzed descriptively to map study characteristics, intervention contexts, types of aromatherapy, and reported psychological outcomes. Results: A total of six studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in this scoping review. The included studies demonstrated variability in study design, types of essential oils used, methods of aromatherapy administration, and psychological outcome measurement instruments. Aromatherapy was predominantly administered via inhalation before or during hemodialysis sessions. Reported outcomes primarily focused on stress, anxiety, and other psychological aspects relevant to patients’ experiences during hemodialysis. Conclusion: This scoping review indicates that aromatherapy has been used as a supportive non-pharmacological intervention for stress management among hemodialysis patients; however, the available evidence remains limited and heterogeneous. Variations in intervention methods and reported outcomes highlight the need for further research using more standardized designs and a specific focus on hemodialysis populations to strengthen the evidence base in nursing practice.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the efforts of Islamic Religious Education in fostering and rehabilitating clients of narcotics addicts at the Rumah Rahayu Rehabilitation Foundation in Pontianak City. The problem of narcotics abuse not only impacts the physical and psychological aspects, but also results in spiritual and moral crises in individuals. Therefore, a religious approach, especially through Islamic Religious Education, is important in the process of recovery and reformation of a person of faith and piety. The research method used is qualitative with a descriptive approach. Data was collected through observations, interviews with Foundation administrators, counselors who also served as spiritual advisors and rehabilitation clients, and documentation of religious activities carried out in rehabilitation facilities. Data analysis was carried out inducively to describe the form and results of the implementation of Islamic religious education for narcotics addict clients. The results of the study show that the implementation of Islamic Religious Education at the Rumah Rahayu Rehabilitation Foundation includes congregational prayer activities 5 (five) times, routine recitation every Friday night, praying together before meals, memorizing short surah for those who can afford it. The activity was led by a counselor who doubled as a spiritual guide. These activities have been proven to help clients in fostering spiritual awareness, a sense of responsibility towards themselves, and motivation to abandon drug abuse behaviors. In conclusion, Islamic Religious Education has a significant role in the rehabilitation process of narcotics addicts, especially in reshaping the religious, moral, and social values of clients. The support of counselors and a conducive environment is an important factor in the success of the foundation's religious development program.
