Abstract

Aims: Neuropathy is one of the complications that can occur in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, around 21.3% to 34.5%. Untreated neuropathy can lead to diabetic foot ulcers that can lead to amputation. This can be prevented by conducting early detection using a neuropathy screening instrument. The study aimed to identify neuropathy symptoms through early examination of patients with type 2 diabetes using the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI). Method: The descriptive study with a survey was approached in this study.  One hundred respondents with type 2 diabetes mellitus were selected using the purposive sampling technique.   Results: The results showed that out of 100 patients had clinical symptoms of sensory neuropathy, such as pain and sensitivity disorders in the soles of the feet.  In addition, autonomic neuropathy is in the form of cramps in the leg muscles.  The level of neuropathy showed that from 100 patients, there were 59 respondents with low risk of neuropathy, 40 respondents with moderate risk, and 1 respondent with severe risk.   Conclusion: Patients with Diabetes, primarily Type 2, have various neuropathy symptoms such as impaired nerve function: numbness, burning, and hypersensitivity, which can lead to diabetic foot ulcers.  Therefore, early detection of neuropathy prevention is essential.

Abstract

Aims: The purpose of this study is to describe Adverse Events Following Immunization (AEFI) among Nursing Science Program Sam Ratulangi University students based on the type of Covid-19 vaccination that they received. Methods: This investigation was conducted using a descriptive retrospective study approach. Purposive sampling was utilized to choose the sample for this study, which included 183 undergraduate students in the Nursing Science Program Sam Ratulangi University. Results: After receiving the first dosage of the vaccination, Nursing Science Program Sam Ratulangi University students most frequently reported headache and muscle pain (30.4%), followed by pain and weakness in the injected arm (20.8%), and swelling at the injection site (26%). Additionally, there were students who received doses 1, 2, and 3 of the vaccination who did not exhibit any side effects. These students were 45 at dosage I, 73 at dose II, and 45 at dose III. At dose 1, the majority of Nursing Science Program Sam Ratulangi University students (73.2%) exhibited AEFI symptoms for less than a day, at doses II and III, 43.7% and 31.1%, respectively, reported experiencing symptoms for one to three days. Conclusion: Based on the research that has been done, it can be said that Nursing Science Program Sam Ratulangi University students only encounter mild AEFI symptoms. So it is hoped that the general public or students won't have to worry about the COVID 19 vaccine causing AEFI symptoms and can get vaccinated right away to strengthen their immunity against the virus.

Abstract

Aims: Piper crocatum Ruiz & Pav (P. crocatum) has been widely used medicinally among ethnic communities in Indonesia to treat a variety of diseases through various preparation- application techniques, duration, and frequency of use. Since research on the benefits of P. crocatum is still limited, our scoping review aimed to identify the key findings resulting from experimental studies regarding the medicinal uses of P. crocatum. Methods: We conducted a scoping review using the framework developed by Arksey and O’Malley. Databases were searched using CAB Direct, ProQuest, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, and Google Scholar. Data were extracted and tabulated using Microsoft Office Excel 2013. Results: Sixteen articles fulfilled were included in the scoping review. Three key concepts were emerged from this scoping review: 1) Study characteristics indicated the most prevalent type of research was in vivo experiment (n=14) with the highest number of preparations using ethanol extracts (n=8) and P. crocatum sample were mostly sourced from Indonesia (n=9); 2) Seventeen screened metabolites were reported and the most frequently identified were steroids and flavonoids, followed by polyphenols and saponins; and 3) Eight potential activities of P. crocatum were reported as follows: anti-inflammatory, pro-wound healing, antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-necrotic, antitumoral, hepatoprotective, and anti-hyperglycaemic. Conclusion: P. crocatum has various metabolites that might influence the reported potential therapeutic activities with different preparation-application techniques, uses, and duration, yet the scientific evidence conducted in clinical study is still limited. Future research needs to perform testing standardized preparations of P. crocatum to be developed as novel therapeutic agents in wounds, infective diseases, cancers, diabetes, and liver diseases.

Abstract

Introduction: In order to deliver quality care to patients and clients, physiotherapists should implement Evidence Based Practice (EBP) in the area of clinical services. There has been little research into the adoption of EBP among physiotherapists in Indonesia. Aims: This study aims to investigate the attitudes, knowledge, and practice of physiotherapists in Indonesia regarding EBP. Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional research approach was used to assess physiotherapists' attitudes, knowledge, and practice in Indonesia. An online self-administered questionnaire-based survey containing validated Indonesian versions of the Evidence Based Practice Questionnaire (EBPQ) and sociodemographic variables was distributed to physiotherapists via social media. Results: The questionnaire was completed by 156 physiotherapists, with 73 (46.8 %) men and 83 (53.35 %) women participating. The total EBP Questionnaire (EBPQ) average score was 127.67, with a mean of 5.31 out of 7 (SD = 0.96). The attitude (5.23, S D= 0.95) had the highest EBP score, followed by knowledge (5.25, SD=1.01) and practice (5.23, SD=1.30). Education level (p = 0.001), professional category (p = 0.002), and clinical instructor (p = 0.024) were the characteristics related with increased EBP performance. Conclusion: In summary, physiotherapists in Indonesia have positive attitudes, knowledge, and practices towards EBP. Higher education levels, working as a clinician and educator, and teaching clinical students may all help to enhance EBP implementation.
