Abstract

One way to diagnose retained placenta is by palpating the uterus to confirm uterine involution. Midwives must have these competencies. One effort to improve student competency is the availability of complete facilities and infrastructure. Currently, the phantom used does not describe in detail the process of uterine involution according to postpartum physiology. Detailed and detailed phantoms are very expensive. This research aims to develop a burtas (paper pulp) uterus involution phantom. It is a phantom covering several parts: the pelvis, abdomen, uterus, and external genitalia. The research was done in the laboratory of the Midwifery Department, Health Polytechnic, Ministry of Health, Palembang, June-October 2023. Research Subjects were DIII Midwifery Study Program students by purposive sampling in small groups of ten people and large groups of 20 people. This research uses a development research design known as Research and Development (R&D). Research and development aim to develop an existing product that can be tested for feasibility and effectiveness. The stages are potential and problems, data collection, product design, design validation, design revision, product trials, product revisions, usage trials, product revisions, and production. The burtas uterine involution phantom feasibility test results were declared very feasible by media experts with a score of 100%. Material expert with a score of 100%, Students 88.03%. The developed uterine involution phantom can be used as a phantom or alternative teaching aid for examining uterine involution in midwifery and breastfeeding care practicums.

Abstract

Dental age estimation is one of the methods in the forensic dental examination. Dental age estimates are often carried out to complete the victim's identity using methods from experts such as Al-Qahtani. There have been many studies related to estimating tooth age using the Al-Qahtani method in normal humans but not in human subjects with special needs, such as children with down syndrome. This study aims to determine the estimated dental age using the Al-Qahtani method in children with down syndrome and to differentiate between chronological age and dental age in children with down syndrome. This research is a cross-sectional study. The research subjects were 13 children with down syndrome who attended special schools in the Jember Regency and met the sample criteria. Tooth age estimation is done by matching the results of panoramic radiographs with the Al-Qahtani Atlas. Data were analyzed using Shapiro-Wilk, Levene's Test, and paired sample T-Test. Estimating dental age using the Al-Qahtani method shows varying dental age values, and there is a delay in the dental age of boys compared to girls with down syndrome. The dental age of all research subjects was delayed from their chronological age. The dental age of children with Down syndrome estimated using the Al-Qahtani method shows an average value of 1 year 2.5 months, and there is a difference between dental age and chronological age with a difference of 1 year seven months. Therefore, adjustments need to be made if the Al-Qahtani method is applied to children with down syndrome.

Abstract

Decreased quality of service in the ICU occurs due to decubitus conditions, namely localized tissue damage due to pressure on soft tissue over bony prominence and pressure from outside for an extended period, so the importance of instruments with the Braden scale is used as an effort to prevent decubitus. This study aims to develop a decubitus risk assessment instrument based on Virginia Henderson's theory on a website that can be applied in the ICU to prevent decubitus. This research is descriptive research using the Delphi approach method, which consists of two stages: a literature study, FGD, expert consultation, content validity tests, readability tests, and website-based applications. In the second stage, researchers will conduct instrument experiments on ICU nurses at RSI Sultan Agung Semarang, with a sample of 50 ICU nurses. The results showed that the instrument has strong validity, so the manufacture of instruments can continue at the stage of making website applications. The results of the validity and reliability test of the instrument obtained 11 instruments that were declared feasible to use with valid and reliable values of 0.714>0.70. ICU nurses can use the Virginia Henderson theory-based decubitus instrument with a website to prevent decubitus.

Abstract

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a retrovirus that attacks the body's immune system, leading to an increase in morbidity and mortality rates in Indonesia. HIV can cause problems in both physical and emotional aspects, impacting the quality of life in daily activities. This study aims to determine the health-related quality of life of HIV patients based on characteristics, duration of diagnosis, and types of antiretroviral treatment at RSUD Sumedang. The research utilized a cross-sectional design with a population of HIV patients visiting the teratai clinic at RSUD Sumedang. Sampling was done using consecutive sampling, involving 71 respondents who met the inclusion criteria. Data analysis in this study utilized univariate analysis and bivariate analysis using chi-square. The univariate analysis results indicated that the majority of respondents had a good quality of life at 56.3%, measured using EQ-5D-5L, with the anxiety/depression domain being the one with the most issues. The results of bivariate analysis using chi-square showed no significant relationship between characteristics, duration of diagnosis, and types of antiretroviral treatment with the quality of life in HIV patients at RSUD Sumedang. It was concluded that the quality of life of HIV patients at RSUD Sumedang, measured using EQ-5D-5L, is mostly good. The domain of anxiety/depression is the most problematic.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus is known as the mother of other diseases such as cardiovascular disease, kidney failure, and blindness. Indonesia ranks 5th in the world in terms of the number of Diabetes Mellitus sufferers in 2014. Non-compliance of patients with therapeutic recommendations can increase the risk of complications. Patient non-compliance is often caused by several factors, including forgetting to use medication, ADR, feeling healthy, and lack of education from health workers. The increasingly widespread use of Android-based applications among the public is an opportunity for patient consultations and reminding patients to be disciplined in using drugs so that they can improve patient clinical outcomes. Therefore, it is necessary to design an Aplikasi Pendamping Diabetes (Si-PenDi) as a control tool for type 2 diabetes mellitus patients undergoing therapy. This research aims to create the Aplikasi Pendamping Diabetes (Si-PenDi) as a tool to help control type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. The research is Research and Development research. The method is used to produce specific products and study the effectiveness of these products. This research reached TKT Level 2, making an Android-based technology application called the Si-PenDi (Diabetes Companion Application). The results obtained are that the Si-PenDi application has quite effective quality but cannot be said to be efficient and meet user satisfaction, so it is necessary to improve the design so that the application is better able to meet user expectations.

Abstract

Breathlessness is a commonly reported symptom among patients with advanced-stage lung cancer and significantly affects their quality of life. Nowadays, treating breathlessness using standard pharmacological therapies is considered not very effective. Fan therapy, as one of the non-pharmacological approaches, emerges as a way to treat breathlessness. This study aims to examine fan therapy's impact on alleviating breathlessness in lung cancer patients. The research employs a literature review methodology, searching for relevant articles from 2017 to 2022 in databases such as Science Direct, EBSCOhost, Clinical Key Nursing, PubMed, and Google Scholar. Five eligible articles are analyzed descriptively. The findings reveal that 80% of the articles assert the effectiveness of fan therapy in reducing breathlessness in lung cancer patients. Meanwhile, 20% of the articles suggest that fan therapy may have clinical benefits in managing breathlessness. Additionally, it was found that fan therapy can decrease respiratory rates in 60% of the articles and enhance peripheral oxygen saturation in 20% of the articles. Notably, no adverse side effects on patients were reported across all analyzed articles. In conclusion, fan therapy emerges as an economical and safe non-pharmacological intervention for mitigating breathlessness in patients with advanced-stage lung cancer.

Abstract

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a viral infection that occurs in the human immune system and makes the body unable to fight infection because the virus can replicate itself. The physical and psychological problems experienced by HIV patients can change their sleep patterns and quality. Poor sleep quality will cause various health problems, including a decreased immune system. HIV patients have experienced a decrease in their immune system due to viral infection, so they need good quality sleep so as not to disrupt their condition and health status. This research was conducted to determine the quality of sleep of HIV patients at Sumedang Hospital. This research method is descriptive and quantitative, with 74 HIV patients taken using consecutive sampling techniques. The sleep quality assessment instrument uses the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Univariate analysis was used in this study to describe the distribution of frequencies and percentages of respondent characteristics and sleep quality. The results of this study showed that the majority of HIV patients experienced poor sleep quality (63.5%). Poor sleep quality that occurs in HIV patients is related to various factors such as psychological stress, disease, medication, age, and gender. From these findings, efforts, and interventions are needed for nurses or health service providers to improve the sleep quality of HIV patients.

Abstract

Adolescent girls are vulnerable to reproductive health problems such as vaginal discharge and reproductive tract infections, which are triggered by poor maintenance of their reproductive organs. This may further impact adolescents' quality of life and productivity. Adolescents in coastal areas tend to have limited sources of information, parental support, and inadequate health facilities related to adolescent reproductive health. This study aims to determine the factors that influence the behavior of maintaining reproductive organs among adolescent girls in coastal areas in the Buluspesantren District. Method: This research uses quantitative methods with a cross-sectional approach. The research population was 859 adolescent girls in coastal regions of Buluspesantren District, and a total sample of 96 respondents were selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed univariate, bivariate, and multivariate. There is a relationship between the availability of facilities and infrastructure (p-value=0.049) and attitudes (p-value=0.012) with reproductive organ maintenance behavior among adolescent girls in coastal areas in Buluspesantren District. The most influential factor is attitude (p-value = 0.018) with Odds Ratio (OR)=3.004. Adolescent girls with a positive attitude are 3.004 times more likely to have good reproductive organ maintenance behavior than adolescent girls with a negative attitude. Adolescent girls need to get information on reproductive organ maintenance from various trusted sources so that they have a positive attitude toward reproductive organ maintenance behavior.

Abstract

The impact of anxiety before surgery can affect the operation, so it must be postponed. Action is needed to overcome the anxiety experienced by the patient. One that can be done by giving self relaxound therapy is by providing a combination of relaxation interventions, maybe, and natural sounds developed by researchers, which is done by perception and self-suggestion while listening to natural sounds and deep breathing exercises. This research aims to determine the effect of relaxation self relaxound on patient anxiety before laparotomy surgery. This type of research uses quantitative research by designing a quasi-experiment using a nonplan equivalent without a control group. This research was carried out in the surgical inpatient room on 32 respondents. Anxiety measurement uses a questionnaire called the Zung Self Rating Scale. Data analysis was done using a paired sample T-test with a significance limit 0.05. The analysis results obtained a p-value=0.000 (α<0.05), which shows a significant effect between therapy self relaxound and patient anxiety. Psychological problems are closely related to surgery; for this, the researchers suggest self relaxound therapy can be considered as a nursing procedure for every pre-operative patient.
