Abstract

Introduction. Caesarean method widely used and become popular among pregnant women. In general, this method mostly used regional anesthesia (spinal, epidural and CSE). However, many reports incidence of complication related to spinal anesthesia after the procedure. Maternal hypotension is the most common complication after spinal anesthesia procedure. Therefore, anesthesiologist need to prevent hypotension during spinal anesthesia in caesarean section. Method. The researcher examines several scientific journals from PubMed, BJA, Elsevier, Cochrane Library and BMC research until 10th August, 2023 for abstracts, conference proceedings, and full-text papers that evaluated prevention of hypotension in non-preeclampsia patients undergoing caesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. In addition, the researchers examine the research conducted during 2016 to 2023. Result & Analysis. The researchers examine 28 scientific article (11.153 parturient) with 6 different methods to prevent hypotension.  It was found that vasopressor is widely used in most research with incidence of hypotension varied from 4%-87,4%. IVCU studies reported the incidence of hypotension in 15,3%-43%. Leg Elevation a non-invasive technique studies reported the incidence of hypotension in 33,3-41,4%. Injection speed adjustment methods resulted incidence of hypotension in Fast injection 50 %-75% and Slow Injection in 36,7%-61%. In addition, granisetron methods diluted in normal saline reported the incidence of hypotension in 17,5%-42%. Low dose spinal anesthesia studies reported incidence of hypotension in 0% - 62,9%. Discussion. From all the research that has been reviewed, vasopressor (Phenylephrine), Leg Elevation and low dose spinal anesthesia could become primary options to prevent hypotension during spinal anesthesia in caesarean section since its effective to prevent hypotension, cost effective, and easy to applied in every medical facility.

Abstract

Introduction. Hypertension becomes very dangerous when the patient cannot control blood pressure, because it will cause complications. One of the nonpharmacological therapies that can be done is foot hydrotherapy using warm red ginger decoction and slow deep breathing. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the combination of red ginger foot hydrotherapy and slow deep breathing on blood pressure in patients with hypertension. Method. Pre-experimental research design with one group pre-test post-test design approach with a sample of 20 people. Total sampling technique. Observation sheet measuring instrument and sphygmomanometer with Wilcoxon statistical test. Result & Analysis. The results of the study obtained blood pressure values before the intervention and found that all respondents had blood pressure in the category of hypertension stage 2 (100%) and after the intervention found 55% in the elevated category and stage 1 hypertension as much as 45%. The results of the static test p-value = 0.000, which shows the effect of the Red Ginger Foot Hydrotherapy combination of Slow Deep Breathing on the blood pressure of hypertensive patients. Discussion. Doing red ginger foot hydrotherapy in combination with slow deep breathing can control blood pressure, but must be supported to consume drugs regularly, exercise, carrying out a diet, and avoiding stress.

Abstract

Introduction: Individuals with diabetes mellitus must adhere to a series of examinations, which includes blood sugar monitoring. The effects of progressive muscle relaxation and lemon aromatherapy on blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes are compared in this study as non-pharmacological interventions for controlling or lowering blood sugar increase that persons with diabetes mellitus can conduct on their own at home. Method: The methodology of pre-experimental research is used. The study population consists of 36 volunteer diabetes patients who are divided into two groups using simple random sampling. The dependent variable is the blood sugar levels of patients with type 2 diabetes. The independent variables in this study are progressive muscle relaxation and lemon aromatherapy. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test & Mann-Whitney test is used to examine the data in order to determine the significance of the comparison between two sets of correlated data using ratio-shaped data. Results & Analysis: With a p-value of 0.016, progressive muscle relaxation is helpful in reducing blood sugar levels. Likewise, using lemons in aromatherapy decreases blood sugar levels (p-value = 0.028). However, the comparison results show that, with a p-value of 0.012, progressive muscular relaxation works better than lemon aromatherapy. Discussion: Both interventions involve relaxation techniques that block stress input and promote physiological calm in order to slow down heartbeats and boost the release of insulin hormones into the bloodstream, which is required for managing blood sugar. It is suggested that future research combine the two medicines to obtain more comprehensive findings.

Abstract

Introduction. Indonesia's still-high infant mortality rate is evidence that the Sustainable Development Goals have not been met. Babies in Indonesia are at risk of stunting and death due to a lack of breast milk. The polyphenols, alkaloids, and phytosterols found in moringa leaves, including campesterol, β-sitosterol, and stigmasterol, stimulate the formation of breast milk. Examining the effects of Hypnobreastfeeding and Moringa pudding on milk production is the primary goal of this study. Methods. The study was quasi-experimental and employed a non-control group design with non-equivalent pre-and post-tests. This kind of study employs purposive sampling. Two groups of thirty-two participants were used in the study; one group received hypnobreast feeding and the other received moringa leaf pudding. The selection of participants was based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Giving Moringa leaf pudding and the hypnobreastfeeding method were the independent factors in this investigation. Primiparous postpartum women's milk production is the dependent variable in this research. A paired T-test is used as the statistical test. Results & Analysis. On the other hand, Both the first and second groups had breast milk production levels between 25 and 150 ml before receiving the hypnobreastfeeding intervention and Moringa leaf pudding; following treatment, these levels rose to above 150 ml. of the paired t-test for both groups showed a p-value of 0.001, where the p-value was <0.05. Discussion. First-time postpartum moms at RSPKT Prima Sangatta who participated in hypnobreastfeeding and received moringa leaf pudding had a statistically significant increase in their milk supply.
