Abstract

ABSTRAK  Insomnia adalah gangguan tidur yang lazim di kalangan lansia, yang secara signifikan berdampak pada kualitas hidup mereka. Terapi komplementer seperti aromaterapi dan teh herbal telah digunakan untuk mengatasi gangguan tidur. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas kombinasi aromaterapi bergamot dan teh chamomile terhadap kualitas tidur pada lansia yang mengalami insomnia. Desain kuasi-eksperimental dengan kelompok kontrol pre-test dan post-test digunakan. Sampel terdiri dari 60 orang lansia dengan insomnia, yang secara acak ditugaskan ke kelompok intervensi (aromaterapi bergamot dan teh kamomil) atau kelompok kontrol (plasebo). Kualitas tidur dinilai dengan menggunakan Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) sebelum dan sesudah periode intervensi selama 4 minggu. Analisis data dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji-t berpasangan dan uji-t independen. Perbedaan yang signifikan dalam skor PSQI diamati antara kelompok intervensi dan kelompok kontrol setelah intervensi (p <0,05). Kelompok intervensi menunjukkan peningkatan kualitas tidur yang signifikan dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol. Kombinasi aromaterapi bergamot dan teh chamomile efektif dalam meningkatkan kualitas tidur pada orang lanjut usia yang mengalami insomnia. Intervensi ini menawarkan pilihan terapi komplementer yang aman dan efektif untuk mengatasi insomnia pada populasi ini.  ABSTRACT Insomnia is a prevalent sleep disorder among the elderly, significantly impacting their quality of life. Complementary therapies like aromatherapy and herbal teas have been utilized to address sleep disturbances. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a combined bergamot aromatherapy and chamomile tea intervention on sleep quality in elderly individuals with insomnia. A quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test control group was employed. The sample consisted of 60 elderly individuals with insomnia, randomly assigned to either the intervention group (bergamot aromatherapy and chamomile tea) or the control group (placebo). Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) before and after the 4-week intervention period. Data analysis was conducted using paired t-tests and independent t-tests. A significant difference in PSQI scores was observed between the intervention and control groups after the intervention (p < 0.05). The intervention group demonstrated a significant improvement in sleep quality compared to the control group. The combination of bergamot aromatherapy and chamomile tea is effective in enhancing sleep quality in elderly individuals with insomnia. This intervention offers a safe and effective complementary therapy option for managing insomnia in this population.

Abstract

Labor pain is a multifaceted physiological phenomenon and is frequently one of the most arduous elements of the birthing process. If labor pain is unmanaged, it may result in complications that are not only distressing for the mother but also potentially hazardous for the fetus. Acupressure is a technique that can be used to reduce the intensity of labor pain. Acupressure is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves applying pressure to specific points on the body. This article will explore the implementation of acupressure in alleviating labor pain from various credible scientific sources. Research has shown that applying pressure to points such as LI4, SP6, GB21, and BL32 reduces pain intensity during labor, making acupressure a non-pharmacological management option during childbirth. ABSTRAK Nyeri persalinan merupakan pengalaman fisiologis yang kompleks dan seringkali menjadi salah satu aspek paling menantang dalam proses kelahiran. Apabila nyeri dalam persalinan tidak diatasi, maka akan menimbulkan masalah yang tidak hanya menyakitkan pada Ibu bersalin, akan tetapi juga berpotensi mengancam jiwa janinnya. Salah satu teknik yang dapat dilakukan untuk mengurangi intensitas nyeri persalinan adalah dengan memberikan akupresur. Akupresur merupakan pengobatan tradisional Tiongkok, yang melibatkan penekanan pada titik-titik tertentu di tubuh. Artikel ini akan membahas lebih mendalam mengenai implementasi akupresur dalam mengurangi nyeri persalinan dari berbagai sumber ilmiah yang terpercaya. Penekanan pada titik LI4, SP6, GB21 dan BL32 telah terbukti mengurangi intensitas nyeri pada persalinan, sehingga implementasi akupresur untuk mengurangi nyeri persalinan merupakan salah satu tatalaksana non farmakologis yang dapat diberikan pada proses persalinan.

Abstract

Although antibacterial soaps have begun to be developed, using akalifa leaves as an active antibacterial ingredient in liquid soap has not been widely explored. Akalifa leaf extract ( Acalypha wilkensiana Müell. Arg. ) is a plant that has antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli bacteria. Escherichia coli bacteria are the most common cause of diarrhea and spread through dirty hands. One way to prevent diseases caused by bacteria is to use liquid soap made using the saponification process with or without adding other ingredients that do not irritate the skin of the hands. Objective: This study aimed to develop and utilize akalifa leaf extract ( Acalypha wilkensiana Müell. Arg. ) into liquid soap with various extract concentrations. This study was conducted experimentally in the laboratory. Akalifa leaf samples were extracted using the maceration method with 70% ethanol solvent, and the results of the khalifa leaf extract obtained were subjected to phytochemical screening tests. The amount of active substances used with variations in concentrations of FI (3%), F2 (6%) and F3 (9%). The resulting liquid soap preparation was evaluated physically, including organoleptic, homogeneity, pH, foam height, and viscosity. After that, the antibacterial activity test used the well method. The results of the study showed that khalifa leaf extract contains alkaloid, flavonoid, tannin, and saponin compounds. The results of the physical quality evaluation of the three akalifa leaf extract liquid soap formulations meet the range requirements permitted by SNI. The results of the antibacterial activity test showed that all formulations produced inhibition against Escherichia coli bacteria, with a concentration inhibition diameter of 3% (7.55mm ± 0.61) in the moderate category and a concentration of 6% (10.94mm ± 0.80) and 9% (13.04mm ± 1.28) in the strong category. The analysis data showed that each liquid soap variation in concentration of 3%, 6%, and 9% khalifa leaf extract had a significant difference ( p-value <0.05) in the results of the physical quality test and antibacterial activity. Conclusion: Based on the research results, it can be concluded that khalifa leaf extract with concentrations of FI (3%), F2 (6%), and F3 (9%) can be formulated into liquid soap that meets physical quality requirements and has antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli bacteria..   ABSTRAK   Meskipun sabun antibakteri mulai dikembangkan, penggunaan daun akalifa sebagai bahan aktif antibakteri pada liquid soap belum banyak dieksplorasi. Ekstrak daun akalifa (Acalypha wilkensiana Müell. Arg.) merupakan salah satu tanaman yang mempunyai aktivitas antibakteri terhadap bakteri Escherichia coli. Bakteri Escherichia coli ini penyebab diare yang paling umum dengan penyebaran melalui tangan yang kotor. Salah satu cara untuk mencegah penyakit karena bakteri adalah dengan menggunakan liquid soap yang dibuat menggunakan proses saponifikasi dengan atau tanpa penambahan bahan lain yang tidak mengiritasi kulit tangan. Tujuan: Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengembangkan dan pemanfaatan ekstrak daun akalifa (Acalypha wilkensiana Müell. Arg.) menjadi liquid soap dengan berbagai variasi konsentrasi ekstrak. Penelitian ini dilakukan secara eksperimental laboratorium. Sampel daun akalifa diekstraksi menggunakan metode maserasi dengan pelarut etanol 70%, hasil ekstrak daun akalifa yang diperoleh dilakukan uji skrining fitokimia. Jumlah zat aktif yang digunakan dengan variasi konsentrasi FI (3%), F2 (6%) dan F3 (9%). Sediaan liquid soap yang dihasilkan dilakukan evaluasi mutu fisik meliputi organoleptis, homogenitas, pH, tinggi busa dan viskositas. Setelah itu uji aktivitas antibakteri menggunakan metode sumuran. Hasil penelitian menunjukan ekstrak daun akalifa mengandung senyawa alkaloid, flavonoid, tanin dan saponin. Hasil evaluasi mutu fisik ketiga formulasi liquid soap ekstrak daun akalifa memenuhi syarat rentang yang diperbolehkan oleh SNI. Hasil uji aktivitas antibakteri menunjukan bahwa semua formulasi menghasilkan daya hambat terhadap bakteri Escherichia coli, dengan diameter hambat konsentrasi 3% (7,55mm±0,61) kategori sedang dan konsentrasi 6% (10,94mm±0,80) dan 9% (13,04mm±1,28) kategori kuat. Data hasil analisis menunjukan masing-masing liquid soap variasi konsentrasi 3%, 6% dan 9% ekstrak daun akalifa memiliki perbedaan yang signifikan (p-value<0,05) terhadap hasil uji mutu fisik dan aktivitas antibakteri. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa ekstrak daun akalifa dengan konsentrasi FI (3%), F2 (6%) dan F3 (9%) dapat diformulasikan menjadi liquid soap yang memenuhi persyaratan mutu fisik dan memiliki aktivitas antibakteri terhadap bakteri Escherichia coli.

Abstract

Wuḍūʾ (Islamic ritual ablution) is a religious based practice performed daily by Muslims. The expanding knowledge of human skin microbiota composed of commensal and pathogenic microorganisms requires a novel approach toward their management. The importance of wuḍūʾ as a cleaning practice and skin microbiota regulator needs to be studied and applied in case results are found beneficial. A novel approach based on estimating wuḍūʾ effects at first requires a framework of dimensions pointing at possible hypotheses. A literature review will serve as a first step to identify dimensions of skin microbiota possibly affected by wuḍūʾ practice. Calculations of body areas, washing frequency and quality of used water are the following steps of the evaluation. Wuḍūʾ functions like an algorithm and a protocol. It covers 14.5% of body surface and is practiced one to five times daily. Hands are washed six times and in total are washed and rubbed twelve times from contact with other washed parts. Palm (volar) area is washed and rubbed more than opisthenar area (dorsal) part of hand. The forearm is washed thrice to the elbow and is considered a ‘grey area’ of doubtful infective potential, just one cm beyond the washed hand which can probably reinfect the already washed hand. The sequence of actions respects gravitation as a possible contaminating factor. A summary of findings shows possible dimensions wuḍūʾ can be included as a variable in a study. Wuḍūʾ practice can be of help to actual sanitization techniques. An immediate recommendation derived from the practice in times of pandemics like COVID-19 is the possible WHO (World Health Organization) recommendation of hand washing extension to elbows, as surgeons do.   ABSTRAK  Wuḍūʾ (wudhu) adalah praktik keagamaan yang dilakukan setiap hari oleh umat Islam. Pengetahuan yang berkembang tentang mikrobiota kulit manusia yang terdiri dari mikroorganisme komensal dan patogen membutuhkan pendekatan baru terhadap pengelolaannya. Pentingnya wuḍūʾ sebagai praktik pembersihan dan pengatur mikrobiota kulit perlu dipelajari dan diterapkan jika hasilnya terbukti bermanfaat. Pendekatan baru yang didasarkan pada estimasi efek wuḍūʾ pada awalnya membutuhkan kerangka kerja dimensi yang mengarah pada hipotesis yang mungkin. Sebuah tinjauan literatur akan berfungsi sebagai langkah pertama untuk mengidentifikasi dimensi mikrobiota kulit yang mungkin dipengaruhi oleh praktik wuḍūʾ. Perhitungan area tubuh, frekuensi pencucian dan kualitas air yang digunakan adalah langkah selanjutnya dari evaluasi. Wuḍūʾ berfungsi seperti sebuah algoritma dan protokol. Ini mencakup 14,5% dari permukaan tubuh dan dipraktikkan satu hingga lima kali sehari. Tangan dicuci enam kali dan secara total dicuci dan digosok dua belas kali dari kontak dengan bagian yang dicuci. Area telapak tangan (volar) dicuci dan digosok lebih banyak daripada area opisthenar (punggung) tangan. Lengan bawah dicuci tiga kali hingga siku dan dianggap sebagai 'area abu-abu' dengan potensi infektif yang meragukan, hanya satu cm di luar tangan yang dicuci yang mungkin dapat menginfeksi ulang tangan yang sudah dicuci. Urutan tindakan ini memperhatikan gravitasi sebagai faktor kontaminasi yang mungkin terjadi. Ringkasan temuan menunjukkan kemungkinan dimensi wuḍūʾ dapat dimasukkan sebagai variabel dalam penelitian. Praktik Wuḍūʾ dapat membantu teknik sanitasi yang sebenarnya. Rekomendasi langsung yang berasal dari praktik ini di masa pandemi seperti COVID-19 adalah kemungkinan rekomendasi WHO (Organisasi Kesehatan Dunia) untuk memperluas jangkauan cuci tangan hingga ke siku, seperti yang dilakukan para ahli bedah.

Abstract

Anxiety disorders have significantly deteriorated the mental well-being of our young populace, especially medical students, due to the demanding academic curriculum, rigorous study schedules, and the burden of expectations to excel as proficient professionals. Various methods to alleviate anxiety have been employed previously, among which Quran therapy has demonstrated remarkable efficacy for Muslims. The objective of this study is to assess the impact of Surah al-Rahman therapy (the 55th chapter of the Holy Quran) on anxiety levels among 2nd year medical students. A pre-post experimental study was carried out on a sample of 68 participants from the 2nd year of MBBS at Federal Medical College. The participants were classified into two categories: Category 1 encompassed individuals who underwent 1-6 sessions, while Category 2 comprised those who underwent 7-12 sessions. Anxiety levels were evaluated utilizing the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI). Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 25, incorporating descriptive statistics and tests for median difference. The findings of the study indicate that the proportion of participants experiencing severe anxiety decreased from 24.6% (pre-therapy) to 3.1% (post-therapy). Positive outcomes in anxiety reduction were observed irrespective of gender and residency location (p-value >0.005). A significant difference in anxiety scores between pre-therapy and post-therapy was noted in both categories. The conclusion of the study imply that Surah-Ar-Rahman therapy is an effective technique in alleviating anxiety. If sessions of Surah-Ar-Rahman therapy are regularly organized in medical institutions, the spiritual development of medical students could be substantially enhanced, fostering self-assurance and competence essential for excelling in their medical careers. Study limitations: small sample size and no control group.   ABSTRAK Gangguan kecemasan telah secara signifikan memperburuk kesehatan mental populasi muda kita, terutama mahasiswa kedokteran, karena kurikulum akademik yang menuntut, jadwal belajar yang ketat, dan beban ekspektasi untuk menjadi profesional yang mahir. Berbagai metode untuk meringankan kecemasan telah digunakan sebelumnya, di antaranya terapi Al-Quran yang telah menunjukkan kemanjuran yang luar biasa bagi umat Islam. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menilai dampak dari terapi Surah al-Rahman (surah ke-55 dalam Al-Quran) terhadap tingkat kecemasan di kalangan mahasiswa kedokteran tahun kedua. Sebuah studi eksperimental pra-pasca dilakukan pada sampel 68 peserta dari tahun ke-2 MBBS di Federal Medical College. Para peserta diklasifikasikan ke dalam dua kategori: Kategori 1 mencakup individu yang menjalani 1-6 sesi, sedangkan Kategori 2 terdiri dari mereka yang menjalani 7-12 sesi. Tingkat kecemasan dievaluasi dengan menggunakan Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI). Analisis data dilakukan dengan menggunakan SPSS versi 25, dengan menggunakan statistik deskriptif dan uji perbedaan median. Temuan dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa proporsi peserta yang mengalami kecemasan berat menurun dari 24,6% (sebelum terapi) menjadi 3,1% (setelah terapi). Hasil positif dalam pengurangan kecemasan diamati terlepas dari jenis kelamin dan lokasi tempat tinggal (p-value>0,005). Perbedaan yang signifikan dalam skor kecemasan antara pra-terapi dan pasca-terapi dicatat pada kedua kategori. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini menyiratkan bahwa terapi Surah Ar-Rahman adalah teknik yang efektif dalam mengurangi kecemasan. Jika sesi terapi Surah-Ar-Rahman diselenggarakan secara teratur di institusi medis, perkembangan spiritual mahasiswa kedokteran dapat ditingkatkan secara substansial, menumbuhkan kepercayaan diri dan kompetensi yang penting untuk unggul dalam karir medis mereka. Keterbatasan penelitian: jumlah sampel yang kecil dan tidak ada kelompok kontrol.
