Abstract

Hypertension is a chronic condition with systolic blood pressure ?140 mmHg and/or diastole ?90 mmHg that is at risk of cardiovascular complications. One of the nonpharmacological therapies such as foot massage using lavender oil is an important alternative that can improve relaxation and modulate the autonomic nervous system. This study aims to analyze the effect of this therapy on reducing blood pressure of hypertensive patients at the Kabila Health Center. The research design used, which was quasi-experimental with two groups, was used on 30 respondents (15 interventions and 15 controls) who were selected through accidental sampling techniques. The research instruments included SOP foot massage and blood pressure measurement using a digital sphygmomanometer. Data analysis was carried out by Wilcoxon test and paired t-test for comparison within groups, as well as independent sample t-test for comparison between groups. The results showed a significant decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the intervention group p = 0.001 (p < 0.05) with the mean systole decreasing from 156.20 to 150.20 mmHg and the median diastole from 92 to 81 mmHg. In the control group, there was no significant change in systol p = 0.096 (p > 0.05) and diastol p = 0.230 (p > 0.05). Significant differences between groups were found for systol p = 0.024 (p < 0.05) and diastol p = 0.000 (p < 0.05). The conclusion that foot massage therapy using lavender oil had a significant effect on lowering the blood pressure of hypertensive patients at the Kabila Health Center

Abstract

Hypertension is a condition when arterial blood pressure rises steadily above normal limits and lasts for a long time. The high prevalence of hypertension is still caused by the low compliance of hypertensive patients in taking antihypertensive drugs. This study aims to determine the relationship between medication adherence to medication and blood pressure in hypertensive elderly at Limboto Health Center. This research is a type of quantitative research with a cross sectional approach. The population in this study is 246 elderly hypertensive patients registered at Prolanis at the Limboto Health Center. The research sample amounted to 38 hypertensive elderly people who were taken using a non-probability sampling technique with an accidental sampling approach. The research instrument used the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) questionnaire to measure the level of adherence to taking medication. The data analysis used was the Chi-Square test. The results showed a p value of 0.002 (p < 0.05), which means that there is a significant relationship between medication adherence to blood pressure in hypertensive elderly people. This research is expected to be the basis for the health center in improving health education, monitoring medication adherence regularly, and involving families in treatment supervision so that blood pressure control in the elderly can be achieved optimally and sustainably.

Abstract

Hemodialysis generally functions to remove metabolic waste products that cause a decrease in blood glucose levels. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of hemodialysis therapy on blood glucose levels in patients in the hemodialysis room at Prof. Dr. H. Aloei Saboe Regional General Hospital in Gorontalo City. The research method used was quantitative research with a quasi-experimental design and a one-group pre-post test design. The sample consisted of 26 respondents using purposive sampling technique. The Wilcoxon test yielded a p-value of 0.000 (p-value < 0.05), indicating that hemodialysis therapy affects blood glucose levels in patients in the hemodialysis room at Prof. Dr. H. Aloei Saboe Regional General Hospital in Gorontalo City. Hemodialysis therapy can reduce the burden of uremic toxins that previously interfered with insulin sensitivity. After dialysis, cellular response to insulin improves, allowing blood glucose levels to be controlled more effectively. It is hoped that this will yield positive results in enhancing the quality of nursing care for patients undergoing hemodialysis therapy, particularly in measuring blood glucose levels. Hemodialysis therapy should be performed to measure blood glucose levels.

Abstract

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is one of the lung diseases characterized by chronic and progressive limited airflow due to obstructions in the airways. This condition causes gas exchange disorders that cause shortness of breath, coughing up phlegm, wheezing, and fatigue due to damage to lung tissue or blockage by phlegm. This study aims to find out whether there is an effect of the combination of semi fowler position and purse lip breathing technique on increasing oxygen saturation in COPD patients. The type of Quasi Experiment research is through a pretest-posttest design control group approach. The population in this study was patients diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the emergency room of Dr. M.M. Dunda Limboto Hospital as many as 70 patients., with sampling techniques using Accidental Sampling amounting to 42 then divided into 21 Intervention groups and 21 Control groups. The level of combination of semi fowler position and Purse Lip Breathing technique, Data analysis was carried out using the Paired Samples T-test. The results showed that in the intervention group, there was a significant increase in oxygen saturation after the intervention, with a value of sig (2-tailed) = 0.000 (<0.05), so that H0 was rejected and Ha was accepted. Similarly, in the control group, the increase in oxygen saturation was also significant with the value of sig (2-tailed) = 0.000 (<0.05). These findings show that the combination of the Semi Fowler position and the Pursed-Lip Breathing technique effectively increases oxygen saturation in COPD patients in the ER. The conclusion of this study is that there is an effect of the combination of the Semi Fowler position and the Pursed-Lip Breathing technique and is proven to be effective in increasing oxygen saturation in COPD patients in the ER, so that this intervention can be used as a recommended non-pharmacological strategy in the treatment of COPD patients.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycemia due to impaired insulin work. DM not only has an impact on physical health but also psychologically, one of which is anxiety. Untreated anxiety can worsen a patient's quality of life and medication adherence. One of the interventions to overcome this is Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME) using booklet media. This study aims to determine the effect of the use of DSME booklet educational media on reducing anxiety levels in DM patients in the working area of the South City Health Center. This quantitative research uses a pre-experimental design with a One Group Pretest–Posttest Design approach. The sample amounted to 49 respondents who were selected using accidental sampling techniques. Data analysis used the Wilcoxon test. The instrument in this study used the HARS questionnaire. The results showed that before being educated, the majority of respondents experienced moderate (47%) and severe (35%) anxiety. After being given the intervention through a booklet, anxiety levels decreased to mild (47%) and non-anxiety (18%). The results of the Wilcoxon test showed a p-value (0.000) < 0.05, which means that DSME booklet education had a significant effect on reducing anxiety of DM patients in the work area of the South City Health Center because it provided clear, structured, and practical information.
