Abstract

Introduction: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease often accompanied by significant psychosocial impacts. Patients frequently report body image disturbances, embarrassment, social stigma, and reduced social participation, which ultimately contribute to a diminished quality of life. This literature review aims to synthesize evidence on the effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in improving the quality of life of patients with psoriasis from a psychological perspective. Methods: This literature review was conducted by identifying the PICO framework (Population/Patient, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome). A literature search was conducted from 2025 to 2026 following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines and the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology across several scientific databases, including Wiley Online Library, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Inclusion criteria comprised articles published within the last six years, focusing on CBT interventions and quality of life in patients with psoriasis, and available in full text. Results: The literature review identified two main themes. The first theme highlights the role of CBT in reducing psychological distress, including anxiety, depression, emotional stress, and negative body image, as a primary pathway to improving quality of life. The second theme emphasizes the modification of maladaptive behaviors into adaptive coping strategies, resulting in improved social functioning, daily activities, and interpersonal relationships. Recommendations: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy should be considered as an adjunct intervention in the comprehensive management of psoriasis to improve patients’ psychological well-being and quality of life. Further research with larger sample sizes and long-term follow-up is recommended to strengthen evidence regarding its sustained effectiveness across diverse patient populations.

Abstract

Phlebitis is a common nosocomial infection caused by invasive procedures such as intravenous catheter insertion, and it may lead to serious complications. Therefore, enhancing knowledge of phlebitis and motivation for its prevention is crucial among professional nursing students. This study aimed to identify the relationship between knowledge of phlebitis and motivation for phlebitis prevention among professional nursing students at a university in Tangerang. This study employed a quantitative correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. Participants were professional nursing students (n = 176) selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using knowledge and motivation questionnaires. The results showed that most participants (56.8%) had poor knowledge of phlebitis; however, the majority of participants (80.7%) demonstrated high motivation for phlebitis prevention. Furthermore, the Spearman's rank correlation test revealed a moderate positive relationship between knowledge of phlebitis and motivation for phlebitis prevention (r = 0.423, p < 0.001), indicating that higher levels of knowledge of phlebitis were related to greater motivation to engage in phlebitis prevention. Although professional nursing students showed high motivation for phlebitis prevention, their level of knowledge remained inadequate. Strengthening educational strategies, including theoretical reinforcement, simulation-based learning, and structured clinical training, is necessary to improve students’ knowledge and preparedness for safe nursing practice.

Abstract

The transition period from academic education to clinical practice often exposes newly graduated nurses to high levels of stress due to increased responsibilities and workplace demands. This study aimed to examine the impact of preceptorship programs on stress levels among newly graduated nurses at Awal Bros Hospital Pekanbaru. This study employed a quantitative analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. All newly graduated nurses who had worked for three months or less at Awal Bros Hospital Pekanbaru during the study period were invited to participate. Using a total sampling technique, 37 eligible nurses were recruited and included in the study. Data were collected using a preceptorship program questionnaire and the Expanded Nursing Stress Scale (ENSS) and were analyzed using the Chi-square test. The results showed that 59.5% of the preceptorship programs were categorized as less appropriate, and 56.8% of nurses experienced stress. Statistical analysis revealed a significant relationship between preceptorship programs and stress levels (p = 0.001; OR = 18.000). These findings indicate that suboptimal preceptorship programs significantly increase the risk of stress among newly graduated nurses. Strengthening structured preceptorship programs is recommended to support adaptation and reduce stress levels.
