Abstract

Poor sleep quality is often experienced by the elderly, so it is necessary to get attention with specific strategies and techniques in solving problems. Guided imagery therapy is one of the right choices. Based on this, this study aims to determine the effect of implementing guided imagery therapy in improving sleep quality. The research design of this case study was descriptive with 1 respondent. Data collection was carried out by means of interviews, observation and physical examination. The research instrument is the PSQI assessment format. Data reduction, presentation and conclusion is the data analysis that will be carried out. The results, after 4 sessions of therapy, it was found that the quality of the client's sleep improved with the data the client said the client felt calm regardless of the client's thoughts that it was difficult to start sleeping and the PSQI results before therapy were 10 with moderate sleep quality problems and after therapy it became 7 with mild sleep quality problems. The conclusion from this case study is that sleep quality improves. It is expected that nursing care with the implementation of guided imagery therapy can be applied in nursing activities, especially the elderly community by considering the type of sleep quality, length and time of administration so that it really becomes effective in overcoming sleep pattern disturbances.

Abstract

Reflective case discussion (RCD) is part of performance management development (PMD). RCD can be done in Hospital and Public Health Center.Nurses carried out RCD to discuss the Nursing issues and create a new Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) through reflective method. Objective: increase nurse professionalism and knowledge by holding discussions, sharing experiences so that mistakes in doing actions that have occurred do not happen again. All nurses must participate in RCD at least once a week. This activity was performed between half an hour and an hour. Method: Qualitative method with action research approach, involving 8 participants until the end in the operating room with three stages namely assessment, implementation and evaluation. Each stage is a reflective process, namely Plan, Action, Observe and Reflect stages. Results: This study found several themes regarding supporting factors, namely stakeholder support, and Nurse motivation, while inhibiting factors were lack of socialization and time and lack of evaluation and supervision. Conclusion: RCD did occur at Ibnu Sina Hospital because of lack of knowledge and socialization. Besides that, supervision and evaluation also did not work. The Head Nurse and Hospital management department must ensure that RCD activities are running and scheduled, because this activity is very important to improve the professionalism of nurses in their work as well as efforts to encourage the development of performance management.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a global health problem. More than 1.28 billion adults worldwide suffer from hypertension, but only 21% have their blood pressure under control. This is because many patients do not consistently follow medication recommendations. The Health Belief Model (HBM) is a theoretical framework that can be used to understand health behaviors, including medication adherence. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the relationship between HBM components and medication adherence levels in hypertensive patients. Methods: This study was a quantitative cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of hypertensive patients undergoing antihypertensive therapy in Makassar City. The sample criteria were hypertensive patients, undergoing antihypertensive medication, and aged 18 years and older. The instruments consisted of the HBM Questionnaire and the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8). Results: Of the 85 respondents, 44 (51.8%) were female, compared to 41 (48.2%) males. The highest age group was 56 – 65 years old (37) (43.5%) and the lowest group was >65 years old (9) (10.6%). The religion was Islam (65) (76.5%), Christianity (17) (20%) and Buddhism (3.5%). The highest ethnic group was Makassar (35) (41.2%) and the lowest were Ambon, Minang, and Manado each (1) (1.2%). Marital status was married (77) (90.6%) and unmarried (8) (9.4%). The highest occupation was housewife (31) (36.5%) and the lowest was private employee (2) (2.4%). The HBM level was 99.85, CI 91.35-108.35, SD 39.413. The level of medication adherence was 6.35, CI 6.08-6.62, SD 1.248. HBM level in the Vulnerability domain 16.29, CI 14.39-18.20, SD 8.837. Severity Domain 9.40, CI 8.32-10.48, SD 4.993. Threat Domain 9.85, CI 8.73-10.96, SD 5.167. Benefit Domain 22.18, CI 19.71-24.65, SD 11.452. Barrier Domain 17.51, CI 15.86-19.15, SD 7.629. Self-Efficacy Domain 24.62, CI 23.86-25.39, SD 3.542. The correlation between HBM and Medication Compliance appears significant with a p value <0.001 with a moderate correlation value of r 0.527. The HBM components, namely the vulnerability domain, showed a moderate correlation of r 0.559, the severity domain a moderate correlation of r 0.553, the threat domain a moderate correlation of r 0.527, the benefits domain a moderate correlation of r 0.521, the barriers domain a moderate correlation of r 0.463, and the self-efficacy domain a weak correlation of r 0.326. Conclusion: A significant correlation appears between the HBM and medication adherence. Moderate correlations are found in the domains of perceived vulnerability, perceived severity, perceived threat, perceived benefits, and perceived barriers, while the self-efficacy domain appears weak.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a major global health challenge due to its rising prevalence and potential for severe complications. This study analyzed differences in blood pressure among hypertensive patients with and without a medication supervisor Methods: A quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional study was conducted at PKM “X” in Tarakan City. Medication supervisors were defined as family members who monitored patients' adherence to medication. The sample included 89 hypertensive patients selected through purposive sampling. Data collection involved interviews and direct blood pressure measurements using a calibrated sphygmomanometer. Bivariate analysis was conducted using the unpaired T-test and Mann-Whitney test. Results: The findings indicate a significant association between medication supervision and systolic blood pressure control. Patients with medication supervisors had a significantly lower mean systolic blood pressure (143.0 ± 16.3 mmHg) than those without supervisors (153.7 ± 16.5 mmHg; p = 0.003, α = 0.05). The mean difference was 10.7 mmHg (95% CI: 3.7–17.7), with a medium-to-large effect size (Cohen’s d = 0.65), demonstrating both statistical and clinical significance. No significant difference was observed in diastolic blood pressure between the group with a medication supervisor (85.1 ± 14.3 mmHg) and the group without (85.5 ± 11.2 mmHg, p = 0.322). These results indicate that the presence of a medication supervisor is a key factor in optimizing systolic blood pressure regulation. Conclusion: A significant difference in blood pressure, particularly systolic blood pressure, was observed between hypertensive patients with and without medication supervision.

Abstract

Background: Stunting continues to pose a significant public health challenge, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Limited parental knowledge, ineffective parenting styles, and inadequate feeding practices are recognized as key determinants of childhood stunting. This study investigated the associations among parental knowledge, parenting styles, feeding practices, and stunting in children. Methods: A quantitative case–control study was conducted from January to March 2025 in West Lombok Regency, Indonesia, with 350 respondents selected via simple random sampling. The independent variables were parental knowledge, parenting styles, and feeding practices, and the dependent variable was stunting status. Data collection utilized validated and reliable questionnaires. Statistical analyses included univariate descriptive statistics and bivariate analysis using the Chi-square test. Results: The majority of non-stunted children had parents with good knowledge (93.6%), authoritarian parenting styles (58.7%), and appropriate feeding practices (94.1%). Conclusion: Parental knowledge, parenting styles, and feeding practices were significantly associated with stunting.

Abstract

Background: Roy’s Adaptation Model (RAM) conceptualizes individuals as adaptive systems that respond to environmental changes through coping mechanisms to maintain equilibrium. This model has been extensively applied as a theoretical framework in nursing practice and research to enhance the quality of care. The present study assessed the efficacy of Roy’s Adaptation Model in guiding nursing research by analyzing recent publications that utilized RAM as a conceptual framework. Methods: A literature review design with a narrative synthesis approach was employed. Literature searches were conducted in five electronic databases: Scopus, PubMed, ProQuest, ScienceDirect, and SAGEPub, for articles published from 2017 to 2021. The selection process included identification, screening, and eligibility assessment based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Methodological quality was evaluated using appraisal tools from the Cochrane Collaboration and the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI). Of the 1,315 articles initially identified, 20 studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. Results: Most studies indicated that RAM-based interventions effectively improved patients’ adaptive responses, reduced anxiety levels and clinical symptoms, and enhanced quality of life. The reviewed studies encompassed diverse populations and healthcare settings. Interventions guided by Roy’s Adaptation Model consistently yielded positive outcomes, although variations in research methods and study designs affected the magnitude of reported effects. Conclusion: Roy’s Adaptation Model serves as an effective conceptual framework for developing nursing interventions across diverse healthcare settings.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a persistent public health issue, linked to impaired growth in children, especially in developing countries. Insufficient protein intake is a primary factor limiting optimal growth in stunted toddlers. Early nutritional intervention with animal-based protein supplementation is considered a promising strategy to improve anthropometric outcomes. Methods: The study evaluated the impact of animal-based complementary feeding on anthropometric outcomes among stunted toddlers at Community Health Center Jayengan, Surakarta. A quasi-experimental, one-group pretest– posttest design was employed, enrolling 30 stunted toddlers through purposive sampling. The intervention involved administering animal-based processed complementary feeding (MP-ASI) for 30 days. Anthropometric parameters measured included body weight, height, and mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC). Data analysis utilized the Shapiro–Wilk test for normality and paired t-test, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05. Results: All anthropometric parameters showed significant improvement following the intervention. Mean body weight increased from 10.15 ± 1.20 kg to 10.85 ± 1.25 kg (p = 0.001). Mean height increased from 81.50 ± 2.80 cm to 82.90 ± 2.85 cm (p < 0.001). Mean MUAC increased from 14.80 ± 1.10 cm to 15.90 ± 1.15 cm (p = 0.002). Conclusion: Animal-based complementary feeding significantly enhances anthropometric outcomes among stunted toddlers, demonstrating a moderate effect size. This intervention represents a practical and scalable approach to support stunting reduction initiatives at the primary healthcare level.

Abstract

Background: Anemia among pregnant women remains a significant health concern, increasing the risk of maternal and perinatal complications. Accurate hemoglobin (Hb) testing is therefore critical in antenatal care. This study analyzed the incidence of anemia and assessed the agreement between Hb measurements obtained using the Sahli Method and those from a Hematology Analyzer among third-trimester pregnant women in Makassar City Methods: An analytical, observational, cross-sectional design was employed, involving 112 purposively sampled pregnant women. Hb levels were measured using both the Sahli Method and the Hematology Analyzer, the latter serving as the reference standard. Results: indicated that 70 participants (62.5%) were classified as anemic, while 42 participants (37.5%) exhibited discrepancies in Sahli Method results. The mean Hb level measured by the Sahli Method was 10.8 g/dL, compared to 11.6 g/dL by the Hematology Analyzer, with a mean difference of 0.8 g/dL, which was statistically significant (p<0.05). Although a strong correlation was observed between the two methods, the Sahli Method's inaccuracy may result in misdiagnosis. Conclusion: The findings suggest that the Sahli Method is suboptimal for definitive anemia diagnosis in pregnant women and should be supplemented by more accurate testing to ensure appropriate clinical interventions.

Abstract

Background: The transition from new graduate nurse to professional nurse represents a critical developmental phase marked by psychological adjustment, clinical skill acquisition, and identity formation. In fragile and resource-constrained health systems such as Yemen. This study aimed to explore the lived experiences of nurses transitioning from novice to professional roles in public hospitals in Yemen. Methods: A qualitative descriptive design was employed to obtain an in- depth understanding of participants’ experiences. Ten newly graduated nurses working in government hospitals in Yemen were recruited using purposive sampling. Data collected between January and December 2025 through semi- structured, in-depth interviews. All interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using thematic analysis to identify patterns and meanings across narratives. Result: Three major themes emerged. included Emotional Turbulence in Early Practice, included subthemes of transition shock, fear of clinical errors, and role uncertainty. The second theme, Developing Clinical Competence and Professional Confidence, encompassed experiential learning, mentorship support, and adaptive coping strategies. The third theme, Negotiating Professional Identity within System Constraints, comprised subthemes of interprofessional dynamics, workload pressure, and commitment to patient- centered care despite limited resources. Conclusion: Structured mentorship, supportive leadership, and competency- based transition programs are essential to facilitate smoother professional integration and enhance retention of newly graduated nurses in fragile health systems.
