Abstract

Background: Low independent nurse actions leads to poor health care quality. Therefore, understanding the factors affecting independent nursing action is necessity. Objectives: This study aims to analysis the independent nurse actions and its related and predicting factors. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design with observational technique for data collection. There were 165 nurses recruited using simple random sampling in 14 inpatient wards of the General Hospital of dr. M. Haulussy Ambon, Indonesia. Spearman Rank Correlation and multiple regressions were used for data analysis. Results: Results of this study showed that there were significant relationships of age, gender, education, employment time, family burden, working experience, knowledge, workload, and nurse ability with independent nursing action with p-value <0.05. Nurse knowledge was the most dominant factor predicting independent nursing action with R-value 0.450. Conclusions: Independent nurse actions in daily living activities, caring & support, and rehabilitation were influenced by multiple factors such as nurse knowledge, ability, education and gender.

Abstract

Background: Autism spectrum disorder is a complex developmental disorder, which increased rapidly than other developmental disorders in the world. This complex disorder affects a child’s self-autonomy, which has become a challenge for their parents or caregivers. Objective: This study is to explore main caregivers’ experience to meet self-care needs of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder in Pontianak, West Borneo, Indonesia. Methods: This study employed a qualitative design with semi-structured in-depth interviews. Seven main caregivers who are living together and taking care of the adolescents with autism spectrum were selected using a purposive sampling. Triangulation was conducted to ensure the trustworthiness of this study, including interviews, observations of self-care activities, documents such as photos, learning reports, and field notes. Participants’ statements were recorded using a voice recorder, and then transcribed, coded, interpreted, and categorized to form main themes and sub-themes. Results: The study identified three main themes: 1) autonomy in self-care, 2) care effort, 3) feelings, supports, and expectations. These findings emphasize the potentials of the children with autism to be autonomous in their daily self-care. Conclusions: Adolescents with autism spectrum disorder can potentially meet the needs of their daily care independently.

Abstract

Background: Anxiety among primigravida mothers should be handled to avoid the risks during pregnancy. Hypnotherapy is considered to be a solution; however, there are limited studies to determine its effect on anxiety, especially in primipara mothers. Objective: To examine the effect of hypnoanxiety on the level of anxiety in primigravida. Methods: This was a Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) with pretest-posttest design, conducted between September – October 2016 in the working area of the Health Center of Bergas Semarang, Indonesia. There were 40 respondents recruited using simple random sampling, which divided into intervention and control group. Hypnoanxiety was performed 8 times for 4 weeks. The Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (ZSAS) was used to measure anxiety in pregnant women. Data were analyzed using Mann Whitney test and Kruskal Wallis test. Results: Findings showed that after four weeks intervention, there was a decrease of the level of anxiety in the intervention group, consisted of 25% of moderate anxiety, 40% of mild anxiety, and 35 % of respondents with no anxiety. The p-value was 0.05, which indicated that there was mean difference of anxiety level between intervention and control group. Conclusions: There was a significant effect of hypnoanxiety on the level of anxiety in pregnant women. It is suggested that hypnoanxiety could be one of the alternative therapies to reduce the anxiety among pregnant women. This could be considered to be included in the standard of midwifery care in Indonesia.

Background: Range of Motion (ROM) exercise has been identified in the literature that it has an effect in improving muscle strength, especially in patients with stroke. However, little is known about the effect of ROM exercise combined with hypnosis therapy. Objective: To determine the effect of combination of hypnosis therapy and ROM exercise on upper extremity muscle strength in patients with non-hemorrhagic. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experiment with pretest-posttest control group design. Thirty-two samples were selected using simple random sampling, which 16 randomly assigned in the experiment and control group. Muscle strength was measured using muscle strength scale. Hypnosis Deepening test was used to measure the level of hypnosis depth. Paired t-test and Independent t-test were used for data analysis. Results: The mean value of muscle strength in the experiment group was 3.50 and the mean value in the control group was 2.62. Independent sample t-test obtained p-value = 0.012, indicated that there was a statistically significant difference in the mean of muscle strength of upper extremity in the experiment and control group. Paired t-test obtained p-value = 0.000, which indicated that there was significant difference between the average of muscle strength value before and after treatment Conclusion: The combination of hypnosis therapy and ROM exercise has a significant effect in increasing muscle strength of upper extremity in patients with stroke non-hemorrhagic.

Background: Type 2 Diabetes mellitus becomes the public health problem worldwide. Reasons for poor glycemic control in Type 2 diabetes are complex.Objectives: To determine factors contributed to poor glycemic control among Indonesian patients with Type 2 Diabetes mellitus.Methods: This was a cross sectional regression study. There were 70 respondents selected using purposive sampling. Pre-structured questionnaires were used to measure socio demographic, clinical characteristics, self-care management behaviors, medication adherence, barriers to adherence, and family support. Data were analyzed using chi-square and binary logistic regression.Results: Poor glycemic control was defined as HbA1c ≥7% or FBG ≥200 mg/dl. Findings of this study reported that 83% patients had or FBG ≥200 mg/dl, which confirmed as poor glycemic control. Logistic regression showed that increasing duration of diabetes (> 5 years), non-adherence to dietary behaviors recommendation through selecting healthy diet, arranging a meal plan, recognizing the amount calorie needs, managing dietary behaviors challenges, medication adherence, and family support were significantly influence poor glycemic control with increased odds ratio scores.Conclusion: The proportion of patients with poor glycemic control was raised. Increasing duration of diabetes, non- adherence to medication and dietary behaviors management, and lack of family support were associated with poor glycemic control.

This review indicated a wide range of factors influencing health behavior among T2DM patients including predisposing factors (socioeconomic, knowledge, stress management, and health belief), reinforcing factor (family support), and enabling factor (health service). Conclusion: Family support, socioeconomic and knowledge are the significant major factors of health behavior among T2DM patients. However, the others factors such as stress management, health belief and health service are also the important factors for T2DM patient’s health behaviors.
