<![CDATA[Stroke is one of the non-communicable diseases that is increasing in prevalence. One of the effects of stroke patients is weakness on one side of the body. Therefore stroke patients need rehabilitation which is fast and precise with the range of motion exercises joints; one of them is grip strength. The recommended exercise is the Active Range of Motion Cylindrical Grip. This study aimed to determine the effect of cylindrical grip on the gripping power in stroke ischemic patients. The method used is Pre-Experiment with pre and post-test one-group design. This research uses Purposive Sampling of as many as 16 ischemic stroke patients. Active Range of Motion Cylindrical Grip exercise given as much as two times a day in 10 minutes for four days. The analysis used is a nonparametric test of Wilcoxon. Results of non-parametric test analysis Wilcoxon obtained p-Value = 0.001 (α <0.05). This value indicates a significant influence between the strength value grips. It is expected that health workers can apply Active Cylindrical Grip ROM exercise as an alternative to increasing the gripping power in ischemic stroke patients who experience weakness and can improve the quality and service of healing ischemic stroke.]]>

<![CDATA[Hypertension is still the leading cause of death in the elderly. Physiological and degenerative processes in the elderly also cause changes in cholesterol levels. It is known that hypercholesterolemia is a risk factor for hypertension. If hypertension and hypercholesterolemia occur in the elderly, it is hazardous for the health of the elderly. Total cholesterol is an important parameter to assess the risk of hypertension. The study aimed to obtain an overview of the total cholesterol profile and the degree of hypertension in elderly hypertension. The research design was a cross-sectional method. Nonprobability sampling with accidental sampling was chosen as a sample selection technique. The sample size was 103. The quantitative descriptive data analysis was presented in a frequency distribution. The results of the study provide an overview of the distribution of elderly hypertension, referring to ACC/AHA classification at hypertension grade I (39.8%), hypertension grade II (35%), and hypertension grade III (25.2%). Meanwhile, the total cholesterol profile was in the desirable range (44.7%), borderline high (26.2%), and high (29.1%). The conclusion that the highest cholesterol levels are in the normal range with the highest degree of hypertension in category I. Future research should examine the factors that cause hypertension in the elderly with normal cholesterol levels.]]>

<![CDATA[Angka kematian ibu akibat Hipertensi dalam Kehamilan (HDK) masih tinggi. Hal ini dikarenakan keterlambatan mencari pertolongan setelah gejala klinis berkembang menjadi preeklamsi dan eklamsi, yang merupakan komplikasi pengelolaan HDK yang kurang tepat. Penelitian ini memiliki tujuan untuk melihat pengaruh rendam kaki pada air hangat dan pemutaran musik klasik pada ibu hamil dengan hipertensi terhadap penurunan tekanan darah. Penelitian Quasi Experimental One Group Pre-test Post-test design ini melibatkan 30 ibu hamil dengan hipertensi dengan teknik sampling Purposive Sampling. Berdasarkan analisis data didapatkan menggunakan paired T-test, setelah diberikan kedua terapi, terdapat penurunan tekanan darah sistolik dengan rata-rata 14,43 mmHg dan penurunan tekanan darah diastolik sebesar 10,83 mmHg dengan nilai p value 0,000 < 0,05, yang berarti ada pengaruh terapi kombinasi terhadap penurunan tekanan darah ibu hamil dengan hipertensi. Terapi ini dapat menjadi alternative dan dapat diaplikasikan pada ibu hamil dengan hipertensi dengan mudah dalam menurunkan tekanan darah.]]>

<![CDATA[Fatigue in children with cancer is a physical, mental, and emotional experience characterized by reduced energy, decreased physical activity, and increased feelings of fatigue. So far, health workers have assumed that fatigue is a subjective feeling and is not life-threatening. If not handled properly, fatigue can reduce the quality of life. This study aimed to identify the level of fatigue in children with cancer. This research used a descriptive quantitative method. According to the inclusion criteria: 1) the respondents are children with cancer aged 6-18 years; 2) the children is undergoing treatment or medication, and 3) the general condition of the children is good. Technique sampling used consecutive sampling to get 74 children with cancer. The instruments used were the Childhood Fatigue Scale (CFS) to measure the level of fatigue in children and the Fatigue Scale-Adolescent (FSA) to measure the level of fatigue in adolescents. Data analysis using the mean value and frequency distribution. The results showed that based on the fatigue questionnaire of children with cancer who receive chemotherapy, most of them had a severe fatigue scale of 56 people (75.7%). Meanwhile, a small proportion of children had a mild fatigue scale of as many as 18 people (24.3%). In this study, all children with cancer experienced fatigue. It interrupts or limits their daily activities and significantly influences different aspects of personal life. Children can still felt fatigued even after chemotherapy is over. Nurses as health workers who have the most frequent contact with children must provide appropriate nursing interventions for cancer to minimize fatigue.]]>

This study aimed to optimize family functions in preventing COVID 19 transmission. This study used a descriptive-analytic design. Two hundred and fifty-eight samples were recruited using a consecutive sampling technique. To measure family function using a questionnaire. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics (i.e., frequency statistics). The frequency statistics showed that most of the respondents have optimally performed family functions in the health sector. Most of the respondents understand COVID 19 (88,4%), they are capable of making decisions (96,9%), they can care for the family (88,8%), they can modify the environment (75,2%), and they can take advantage of health services (81%). This study only captures the extent to which the family optimally performs health functions; it does not provide any form of intervention.

<![CDATA[There are many causes of maternal mortality, and one of them is preeclampsia, especially in Indonesia. Pregnant women could prevent maternal mortality caused by preeclampsia with understanding the signs and the dangers of preeclampsia. This research aimed to assess the effect health education using video and leaflets on pregnant women's knowledge about preeclampsia. This study was a quasi-experimental study with pretest and posttest without a control group. The respondent did a pretest about preeclampsia and given an intervention and the posttest. The sampling method was quota sampling with 74 respondents. This research provided collected data through questionnaires of knowledge about preeclampsia and education through video or leaflets. The result of the normality test showed normal distribution. Knowledge value of preeclampsia presented in mean and SD (Standard Deviation). The paired average comparison test used a paired sample t-test; meanwhile, the comparison test average unpaired used Independent Sample t-test. The results showed that video and leaflet affected improving pregnant mothers' knowledge about preeclampsia with a p-value of 0.000 <0.05. The work can be seen from the mean before and after being given video education. It has increased from 67,784 to 86,703 and leaflet education, which also increased from 71,135 to 89,514. Videos and leaflets also have the same level of effectiveness in improving maternal knowledge about preeclampsia, with a p-value of 0.854> 0.05. There was an increased level of expertise after the education by video and leaflet on pregnant women about preeclampsia. Besides, the two media also have the same level of effectiveness in improving maternal knowledge about preeclampsia. A suggestion for further research is to use another learning media such as pamphlet, poster, PowerPoint, or flip chart.]]>
