Abstract

Background: The elderly are individuals aged ≥60 years who will experience functional changes in their body systems, including the musculoskeletal system, and put them at high risk of suffering rheumatoid arthritis. This disease causes joint pain and often affects the elderly's ability to carry out daily activities, thus having an impact on the elderly's level of independence. Purposes: This study aimed to determine the relationship between pain levels and the independence of elderly people with rheumatoid arthritis in UPTD Puskesmas Mengwi II. Methods: This research is a quantitative study that used a correlational design and a cross-sectional approach. The sample was 67 elderly people with rheumatoid arthritis who were selected by the Purposive Sampling technique. Data were collected using the Numerical Rating Scale and Barthel Index, which were analyzed using the Spearman Rank test. Result: The results showed that the average score of pain level in elderly people with rheumatoid arthritis was on a scale of 4 (moderate pain), with an average independence score of 75.37 (mild dependence). The results of bivariate analysis showed that there was a relationship between pain level and the independence of elderly people with rheumatoid arthritis (p=0.000; r= -0.591). Conclusion: the pain level of rheumatoid arthritis impacts the elderly’s activities, so the nursing services can optimize pain management so that elderly people will not experience problems in carrying out their daily activities independently.

Mental health problems that are often experienced by the elderly include anxiety. Elderly people with anxiety symptoms require special attention through handling these symptoms. If not, these symptoms can harm the psychosocial condition of the elderly. Non-pharmacological treatments that are used as alternatives to overcome anxiety such as progressive muscle relaxation and the butterfly hug. Purposes: This study aims to analyze the difference in effectiveness of progressive muscle relaxation and the butterfly hug on elderly anxiety. Methods: This research design is quantitative with a quasi-experimental approach. The sampling technique was purposive sampling, and a total of 66 respondents were selected according to the predetermined restriction criteria and divided into two intervention groups. Data normality test using the Shapiro-Wilk, hypothesis testing using the Wilcoxon, and then a different test using the Mann-Whitney. Result: The results of data analysis of respondent characteristics showed the dominance of age in both intervention groups, namely, age 60-74 years. In the progressive muscle relaxation group, as many as 26 elderly people (78.8%), and in the butterfly hug group, as many as 19 elderly people (57.6%). Female gender (100%). The statement of the Wilcoxon test in each group indicated that the significance value was 0.001 (p)=0.001 0.005. Conclusion: This study shows the results that there is no significant distinction between progressive muscle relaxation and the butterfly hug on anxiety in the elderly.

Abstract

Background: Over the past few decades, the incidence of patients experiencing acute kidney injury (AKI) has increased, necessitating inpatient care. The prognosis of AKI patients is influenced by the management they receive, requiring swift and accurate intervention to prevent poor outcomes. Current AKI diagnostic biomarkers are considered slow, affecting the timeliness of treatment. This study aims to investigate the correlation between the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and AKI as an early biomarker that has the potential to predict AKI. Objective: This study aims to determine whether there is a correlation between NLR and the stage of AKI using the AKIN criteria and the NLR cutoff for each stage of AKI. Methods: This study is a cross-sectional study. Subjects were selected using consecutive sampling. Data were collected using secondary data from the medical records of PKU Muhammadiyah Purbalingga Hospital. Results: We conducted 101 study subjects, there were 49 male and 52 female, with an average age of 62.3 years. Cardiovascular comorbidities were the most common among AKI patients, with 44 subjects affected. A significant correlation was found between NLR and the stage of AKI, as follows: a statistical analysis using ordinal logistic regression (p=0.044), odds ratio (1.03), and multivariate AUC test (77%), cut off (17.7) with specificity (71%) and sensitivity (75%). Conclusion: There is a correlation between NLR and the stage of AKI using AKIN criteria at PKU Muhammadiyah Purbalingga Hospital.

Women are known to be more susceptible to developing OA, while advanced age is also a risk factor for developing OA. Purposes: This research is aiming to know the prevalence of OA in elderly women with and without obesity using the BMI calculation within the period of 2022. Methods: This research using a numerical analytic observation from secondary data of medical records with cross-sectional research design. Result: The study finds from the total of 196 patients, 133(67.9%) of them were obese whereas 63 (32.1%) weren't in obese condition. Conclusion: Therefore, that there was a significant difference between the average number of elderly women with and without obesity.
