<![CDATA[Introduction: Low birth weight (LBW) babies born via deep transperitoneal cesarean section (SCTP) with a gestational age of less than 34 weeks are highly susceptible to hypothermia. Hypothermia poses a significant risk of neonatal mortality, with LBW being one of the contributing factors. Thus, it is crucial to implement strategies to minimize heat loss and provide warmth, such as using plastic blankets. This case study aims to present the outcomes of implementing plastic blankets to manage hypothermia in LBW babies post-SCTP in the IBS Room at RSUP Dr. Kariadi Semarang. Methods: The study employs a descriptive design with a nursing care approach. The subjects included premature babies born via SCTP < 34 weeks. Three infant patients according to the criteria were included in the study. The measurement tool used was an observation sheet to monitor axillary temperature. The intervention plan involved providing plastic blankets to all three subjects to prevent hypothermia. Following birth, the infants were placed in an infant warmer, cleaned of mucus, wrapped in a plastic bag with a cloth cap on the head, underwent neonate resuscitation, and then covered with cloth while awaiting transfer to the room. Results: The findings indicate that the plastic blanket intervention increased the post-SCTP LBW temperature by an average of 0.50°C based on thermometer measurements and an average increase of 0.48°C based on infant warmer measurements. Conclusions: Therefore, it is recommended that healthcare professionals, particularly perinatology nurses, consider employing the plastic blanket method in managing hypothermia in LBW babies post-SCTP to maintain thermoregulation.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Every month's regular menstrual cycle should ideally span 21-35 days. The menstrual cycle is influenced by several factors, namely stress levels and sleep quality. Menstrual cycle disorders indicate metabolic and endocrine system irregularities. The impact that often occurs due to menstrual cycle disorders is infertility and difficulty identifying the fertile period. The purpose of the study was to determine the relationship between stress levels and sleep quality with the menstrual cycle in seventh-semester nursing students at Universitas Muhammadiyah Lamongan. Methods: This research design uses correlation analytics with a cross-sectional approach using a simple random sampling technique with a sample of 111 respondents. Measured using the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale questionnaire sheet for stress levels and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index questionnaire for sleep quality. After tabulating the data and analyzing it using the Spearmen Rank test. Results: This study showed that almost half of the 43 female students (38.7%) experienced mild stress and more than half of the 60 female students (54.1%) had poor sleep quality. Conclusions: Based on the results of the analysis using the Spearmen rank test, the value of p = 0.000, where p <0.05 means that there is a relationship between stress levels and sleep quality with the menstrual cycle in nursing students in semester VII of Universitas Muhammadiyah Lamongan. Based on this research, it is expected that female students can reduce stress, get enough sleep 7-8 hours, diet, and control weight so that the menstrual cycle returns to normal.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Therapeutic communication is one of the factors that contribute to patient satisfaction, which is a measure of the quality of the services provided by the health care provider. The objective of the investigation is to determine whether there is a disparity in patient satisfaction regarding the therapeutic communication of nurses among the nursing facilities of Classes I, II, and III at RSUD Subang. Methods: This quantitative investigation employs a cross-sectional design. The sampling technique employed is stratified sampling, with a total sample of 86 respondents involved in the sample collection. The research instrument uses a patient satisfaction questionnaire with 7 questions that require the nurses to fill in directly in the paper to assess the therapeutic communication of nurses. Results: Based on data collected by RSUD Subang's official Instagram page, @rsudsubang, the Community Satisfaction Index during the 2023 period was 83.8%. The bivariate analysis showed a p-value of 0.094, which is higher than 0.05. Subsequently, the statistical test of p > 0.05 (p-value 0.094) proves that there are no gaps in patient contentment among the hospital rooms of classes I, II, and III at RSUD Subang. Conclusions: The research is anticipated to generate data that can be employed as guidance and evaluation tools for hospitals, particularly in class I, II, and III nursing rooms, to enhance therapeutic communication in health services for patients in those classes.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Hypertension is a disease that is often not felt but can have serious consequences for health. One way to prevent and overcome hypertension is using non-pharmacological therapy, one of which is the progressive muscle relaxation technique which is useful for lowering blood pressure. This study aims to analyze the effect of progressive muscle relaxation techniques on reducing systolic blood pressure in elderly people with hypertension. Methods: The method used is quantitative research with a pre-post test quasi-experimental research design with a control group. Sampling using a simple random sampling technique with a total of 60 respondents divided into 2 groups, namely, 30 intervention groups and 30 control groups. Data analysis using the Independent Sample T-test parametric test. Results: The results showed the average value of pre-test blood pressure in the intervention group was 157 mmHg and the control group was 149 mmHg, while in the post-test the intervention group after being given the progressive muscle relaxation technique was 136 mmHg and the control group was 134 mmHg. Data analysis using the Independent Sample T-test test obtained a p-value of 0.000 which indicates the effect of progressive muscle relaxation techniques on the elderly with hypertension. Conclusions: Therefore, it can be concluded that progressive muscle relaxation techniques can have an effect on reducing systolic blood pressure in the elderly with hypertension and it is recommended that this study be used as a reference material and implementation in performing progressive muscle relaxation techniques to prevent and control hypertension.]]>
