Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

Hemodialysis remains the main therapy for patients with kidney failure. During the cannulation process, which is the insertion of a needle into a vascular access, hemodialysis patients often experience pain. The combination of music therapy and the use of stress balls is an example of a non-pharmacological intervention that can be used to overcome pain during cannulation. Objective to identify the effectiveness of the combination of music therapy and stress balls on pain in hemodialysis patients during the vascular access cannulation process. This study used a phased cross-over design, where each respondent received both treatments alternately. A total of 42 respondents were divided into two groups: the experimental group (n = 21) received music therapy and stress balls , while the control group (n = 21) received standard hospital therapy, namely deep breathing relaxation. Furthermore, the two groups exchanged treatments. The level of pain was measured using a VAS (Visual Analog Scale). The results showed that the combination of music therapy and stress balls was effective in reducing pain during the cannulation process, with significant changes in pain levels after insertion (p < 0.001). Cohen's d effect size of -0.632 indicates that combination therapy has a stronger effect in reducing pain than deep breathing relaxation therapy.

Abstract

Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by airway narrowing, inflammation, and excessive mucus production. Relapse refers to the recurrence of symptoms, which can be severe and disrupt daily activities, often necessitating additional care, either outpatient or inpatient, sometimes with a longer duration than previous episodes. The objective of this literature review is to examine the factors influencing asthma relapse. This study employed a literature review design. Articles were identified through online databases, specifically Google Scholar and PubMed, using keywords and Boolean operators such as AND, OR, NOT. The search terms included “Factors Associated with Asthma” AND “Relapse Asthma.” The literature search was conducted in November 2024, focusing on articles published between 2020 and November 2024. A total of 683 articles were retrieved from Google Scholar and PubMed. Based on the review of 10 selected studies, it was concluded that asthma triggers may result from biological, environmental, or chemical factors. Factors associated with asthma exacerbations include a history of smoking, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), obesity, nasal polyps, depression, and anxiety. Factors linked to severe asthma exacerbations include atopic conditions and passive smoking as primary indicators.

Abstract

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.
