Abstract

To enhance the competencies of midwifery students, one must design a learning instruction in such a manner that it will optimize the learning. The learning materials designed based on technology will facilitate the learners to achieve the desired outcome. In this study, e-partograph was developed using ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) instruction model. The module of e-partograph was followed the structural guideline of Department of National Education of Indonesia consisted of: self-instruction, self-contained, stand alone, adaptive, and user friendly. The evaluation showed that e-partograph was feasible (99.3) in the material subject, very feasible (195) in terms of media, feasible (101.6) in the try-out, and feasible for the students (users) (104.18). It is suggested that e-partograph could be applied in the teaching learning system, and it is expected to contribute positively to the increase in skill and competence of midwifery students who will be able to carry out its role both academic and practice.

Abstract

Background: Peripheral arterial disorders in diabetes mellitus is a common complication that often occurs and can develop into diabetic foot ulcers. High blood sugar levels in people with diabetes mellitus can cause increased blood viscosity resulting in thickening of the capillary membrane, where erythrocytes, platelets and leucocytes are attached to the blood vessels. Electrical stimulation by placing electrodes in the calf muscle is one of the measures to increase foot blood flow that can reduce the poor foot circulation. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of electrical stimulation in improving blood flow of patients with diabetes mellitus. Methods: The research used pre-experimental design with one-group pretest-posttest. Sampling technique using purposive sampling as many as 62 patients with diabetes mellitus. Electrical stimulation was done by attaching electrodes to left and right calf muscles for 20 minutes, with frequency 3 times a week for 2 weeks. Before and after electrical stimulation performed foot circulation examination by ankle brachial index technique. Data were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed rank test. Results: The results showed that before the stimulation was obtained the mean ankle brachial index 0.82 mmHg and after stimulation it was 0.95 mmHg (p = 0.000). There was an effect of electrical stimulation in increasing foot blood flow. A calf muscle contraction during stimulation leads to increased leg blood flow through the addition of vascular endothelial growth factor and increased nitric oxide as a vasodilator of blood vessels. Electrical stimulation can be applied in increasing the blood flow of the foot, thus preventing the occurrence of diabetic foot ulcers. Conclusion: Stimulation is one therapy that can be done to prevent poor foot circulation of patients with diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

Objective: To examine the effect of early ambulation with cold pack on the prevention of bleeding and haematoma complications in patients post-cardiac catheterization. Methods: This research used an experimental method with randomized posttest-only control group design. Thirty respondents were randomly selected using simple random sampling, with 15 assigned in the experiment and control group. The experiment group was given cold pack and early mobilization, while the control group was given sand pillow with immobilization for 6 hours. Independent t-test and Fisher’s exact test were used for data analysis. Results: Findings showed that there was no significant difference in haemorrhage between experiment and control group after given intervention (p= 1.000), and found a significant difference in haematoma between the two groups (p=0.001). Conclusion: Cold packs with early ambulation and sand pillow with immobilization for 6 hours were equally effective in preventing haemorrhage. However, cold packs with early ambulation was more effective in preventing haematoma.
