A prolonged cough, excessive sputum production, narrowing of the airways, and shortness of breath or a decrease in respiration rate were symptoms caused by COPD. One of the breathing exercise methods that could help expel sputum, maintain lung elasticity, reduce shortness of breath, and improve lung function was the Active Cycle of Breathing Technique (ACBT). ACBT was often given to patients with lung problems; therefore, a review was necessary to determine the effectiveness of ACBT on the respiration rate of COPD patients. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the Active Cycle of Breathing Technique on the respiration rate of patients with COPD. Method: Literature sources were searched using online databases such as ScienceDirect, ProQuest, CambridgeCore, Oxford Academic, SpringerLink, and Google Scholar. The keywords used for the search included Active Cycle of Breathing Technique, Respiration Rate, and COPD Patients. The articles obtained were then analyzed to identify differences and similarities among the articles. The articles were identified using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) method. The extracted data were compiled into a table. Results: From a total of 3,835 articles, 5 articles met the inclusion criteria. Conclusion: The review results indicated that the Active Cycle of Breathing Technique (ACBT) was effective in reducing the respiratory rate (RR) in patients with COPD.

Hospitalized children often experience decreased appetite, which is influenced by stress and anxiety. This decrease in appetite can worsen the recovery process and increase the risk of complications. VR technology has emerged as one of the promising innovations to reduce anxiety and improve nutritional fulfillment in children during medical treatment. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of Virtual Reality (VR) in improving nutritional fulfillment in hospitalized children. Method: A literature search was conducted on four major databases: PubMed, ProQuest, ScienceDirect, and Scopus. Three articles with Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) design that met the inclusion criteria were selected and analyzed in this review. The articles were evaluated using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) form to assess risk of bias and methodological quality. Results: This study shows that VR is more effective than animated videos in reducing anxiety, increasing appetite, and motivating children to eat nutritious food. In addition, VR also provides benefits as an interactive educational tool that appeals to children. Conclusion: VR is a promising intervention in improving nutritional fulfillment in hospitalized children. This technology not only reduces anxiety, but also has the potential to increase children's participation in the recovery process. Further research with larger samples is needed to confirm these findings and explore the applicability of VR to different age groups and diverse medical conditions.

Nausea and vomiting are common side effects experienced by breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Complementary therapies, such as peppermint and ginger aromatherapy, have been widely studied as alternatives to relieve these symptoms. However, the effectiveness of each type of aromatherapy needs further evaluation. Objective: This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of peppermint and ginger aromatherapy in reducing nausea and vomiting in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Methods: A Quasi-Experimental design was used with 28 breast cancer patients at Husada Hospital Jakarta, divided into two groups: peppermint and ginger. Nausea and vomiting levels were measured before, 2 hours, and 6 hours after chemotherapy and analyzed using ANOVA Repeated Measures and Independent T-Test. Results: The results showed that both peppermint and ginger aromatherapy significantly reduced nausea and vomiting after chemotherapy (p < 0.05). However, at 6 hours after chemotherapy, the peppermint group had lower average nausea and vomiting scores compared to the ginger group (6.57 vs. 10.29, p = 0.036). This indicates that peppermint is more effective than ginger in reducing nausea and vomiting after chemotherapy. Conclusion: Both peppermint and ginger aromatherapy are effective in reducing nausea and vomiting in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. However, peppermint showed higher effectiveness compared to ginger at the 6-hour post-chemotherapy time point. Future research could explore the combination of peppermint and ginger aromatherapy to enhance effectiveness in reducing nausea and vomiting in breast cancer patients.

Delirium is an acute change in neurologic function that can potentially lead to longterm impacts on children’s cognitive development and the quality of life. Infants under 12 months are particularly vulnerable because their cognitive and language abilities are not fully developed. Therefore, healthcare professionals need to enhance their knowledge of delirium symptoms, child development stages, and how to identify it in this age group to better detection and management. This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of delirium assessment tools, namely the Cornell Assessment of Pediatric Delirium (CAPD), the Preschool Confusion Assessment Method for the ICU (psCAM-ICU), and the Sophia Observation Withdrawal Symptoms Pediatric Delirium (SOSPD), in detecting delirium in critically ill infants. This systematic review follows the PRISMA 2020 guidelines and includes a literature search in PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest, ScienceDirect, and Taylor & Francis from 2013 to 2023. Inclusion criteria consist of observational studies involving infants aged 0-11 months in ICU settings that utilized CAPD, psCAM-ICU, or SOSPD for delirium detection. The quality of the studies was assessed using the JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist for Studies Reporting Diagnostic Test Accuracy. Result : The analysis indicates that the SOSPD tool has a sensitivity ranging from 76.9% to 96.8% and specificity between 92% and 96.4%. The CAPD shows sensitivity from 87% to 94.1% and specificity from 88% to 98%. The psCAM exhibits sensitivity from 75% to 95% and specificity from 81% to 91%. The results demonstrate variability in accuracy depending on the age group and clinical condition of the children. Based on the research findings, psCAM is recommended as the most effective tool for detecting delirium in the infant population due to its ease of use and high accuracy. Early detection of delirium is crucial for enhancing clinical management and improving outcomes in critically ill infants.

Malaria infection is a significant health issue in Indonesia, with a high prevalence in endemic areas such as Puskesmas Hanura Teluk Pandan. Giemsa 3% staining is used as the standard method for microscopic diagnosis of malaria; however, the duration of staining can affect laboratory efficiency. This study aims to optimize the staining time of Giemsa 3% in microscopic malaria diagnosis to improve efficiency without compromising diagnostic quality. The study used an experimental design with staining time variations of 30 minutes, 40 minutes, and 50 minutes on thin blood smear samples from suspected malaria patients. Staining quality was assessed using a scoring system, with a score of 1 indicating optimal staining (clear background, blue cytoplasm, and red nucleus) and a score of 0 indicating suboptimal staining (unclear background, cytoplasm, and nucleus not stained or not clearly visible). The results showed that all staining time variations produced optimal staining quality (score 1), with no samples receiving a score of 0. The data were found to be non-homogeneous and non-normally distributed, thus the Kruskal-Wallis test was employed for subsequent analysis. The Kruskal-Wallis test showed no significant differences between the three staining time variations (p = 1.000). The conclusion of this study is that staining durations of 30 minutes, 40 minutes, and 50 minutes with Giemsa 3% can produce equivalent staining quality, allowing operational efficiency without compromising the accuracy of malaria diagnosis.

The life of families caring for members with leukemia can be disrupted due to the high burden of care, thus risking a decrease in quality of life. This study aims to analyze the relationship between coping strategies and burden of care with the quality of life of families with leukemia at the Banda Aceh City Shelter. The study used a cross-sectional design with a total of 55 respondents taken through a total sampling technique from five shelters. Data collection was carried out through interviews using questionnaires from August 10 to September 10, 2023. Data analysis was carried out bivariately and multivariately using ordinal logistic regression. The results showed that 56.36% of respondents had a poor quality of life. Coping strategies, burden of care, social support, self-efficacy, education, employment, income, gender, and age were related to quality of life, while marital status was not. Respondents with low quality of life used more emotional focused coping strategies (65.85%) than problem focused coping (28.57%) (OR=4.82; p=0.020). In addition, heavy caregiving burden increases the risk of poor quality of life up to 11 times (OR=11; p=0.007). Multivariate analysis showed that the most dominant factor was family income. Therefore, the use of halfway houses is highly recommended to reduce the economic burden of cancer patients' families.
