Abstract

Introduction. One of the essential competencies for nursing students is the ability to determine the location of myocardial infarction in cases of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). This learning material is considered complex; therefore, specific strategies are needed to help students understand it more easily. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the Einthoven triangle illustration in improving nursing students’ ability to identify the location of myocardial infarction. Methods. This study employed a one-group pre-test post-test design with a population of nursing students from the Faculty of Health Sciences, Tribhuwana Tunggadewi University. The study included seventh-semester nursing students with active enrollment who had no prior education or training in infarction localization. A total of 50 respondents were randomly selected. The Einthoven triangle illustration served as the independent variable, and the ability to determine the location of myocardial infarction served as the dependent variable. Data were collected using a test sheet and analyzed using the Wilcoxon test with a significance level of α = 0.05. Results. There was a twofold improvement in students’ ability to identify infarction sites before and after being taught using the Einthoven triangle method (median = 2 vs. 4). The Einthoven triangle illustration was proven effective in enhancing nursing students’ ability to determine the location of myocardial infarction (p = 0.000). Conclusion. To effectively deliver complex learning materials, it is essential to present them in simplified formats—such as diagrams, animated videos, or other visual aids—to facilitate students’ understanding.

Abstract

Patients’ knowledge about cataracts, post-surgery anxiety and the satisfaction of cataract surgery services influence psychologist readiness, obedience, and all surgical experience. Understanding these factors are significant to design education intervention and effective perioperative psychosocial. The study aims: This cross-sectional descriptive preliminary study aimed to describe knowledge level, post-surgery anxiety and patients’ satisfaction of cataracts surgery in Surabaya General Hospital on September 2025, in order to identify problems description which need service improvement. Method:  This was consecutive samples of 56 cataract surgery patients. Data collected by structured knowledge questionnaire (validated; KR-20 = 0.82), Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (ZSAS; α = 0.88), and Patients’ Satisfaction Questionnaire (PSQ 2017) adapted from PSQ-18 (α = 0.91). Analysis data found descriptively as frequency, percentage, average, and deviation standard. Result: Most of the participants are female (58.9 %), aged 60-69 years old (48.2 %), and educated from low to medium level. The knowledge level which good is on 50.0 % of the participants (average 11.5 ± 2.0 from 15), medium level is on 17.9 %, and low level is on 32.1 %. Post-surgery anxiety in zero level is 53.6 % (average 45.0 ± 8.0), minor level is on 21.4 %, and major level is on 25.0 %. Major level satisfaction is on 58.9 % (average 39.5 ± 6.0 from 50), medium level is on 16.1 %, and minor level is on 25.0 %. Lower education level and informal job related by lower knowledge and satisfaction. Conclusion: This study shows mostly of the cataract surgery patients have lack of knowledge, major post-surgery anxiety, and low satisfaction. It needs better education intervention and appropriate, intense psychosocial support system as well. This finding gives prime important to serious discrepancy on the preparation and patients treatments nowadays, that needs further study and refinement to optimize patients’ results and all experience of health services

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder that requires lifestyle-based interventions, particularly dietary modification. Intermittent fasting has emerged as a promising approach; however, evidence of its effectiveness remains inconclusive. This research aims to determine how intermittent fasting, implemented as a non-pharmacological dietary strategy, influences metabolic regulation, body composition, and dietary behavior in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study was designed as a systematic literature review following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, focusing on randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published between 2020 and 2025. Comprehensive literature searches were conducted across three primary databases, including PubMed, ScienceDirect, and ClinicalKey. Methodological quality was assessed using the Revised Cochrane Risk-of-Bias Tool (RoB 2), and data were extracted systematically and synthesized narratively. The search identified 382 articles, of which nine RCTs met the inclusion criteria. The results show that 6 out of 9 studies reported statistically significant reductions in HbA1c (p < 0.05), with reductions ranging from -0.91% to -1.9%. Significant weight loss was observed across most studies, ranging from 2.98 kg to 9.7 kg (p < 0.01). Furthermore, lipid profiles showed significant improvements, particularly in triglycerides (p < 0.05) and total cholesterol (p ≤ 0.023) in selected trials. However, none of the reviewed studies examined eating behavior traits, highlighting a research gap. Future studies should explore behavioral and adherence aspects to assess the long-term feasibility of intermittent fasting in diabetes care.

Abstract

Adolescence is a critical phase of human development characterized by rapid physical, psychological, and cognitive changes. One of the common reproductive health problems experienced by adolescent girls is primary dysmenorrhea, which is menstrual pain caused by excessive uterine contractions and increased prostaglandin levels. This condition can disrupt daily activities, learning concentration, and overall quality of life. This study aimed to analyze the effects of Abdominal Stretching Exercise and William’s Flexion Exercise on the intensity of menstrual pain among ninth-grade female students at SMP Dharma Bhakti Waypanji, Kalianda, South Lampung. The study employed a quasi-experimental pre–post test design with two intervention groups. The sample consisted of 48 ninth-grade students with primary dysmenorrhea, selected using total sampling. The first group received Abdominal Stretching Exercise, while the second group received William’s Flexion Exercise, each performed for 10–15 minutes per session under supervision to ensure proper execution. Pain intensity was measured before and after the intervention using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Data were analyzed using an Independent t-test with a significance level of α = 0.05. The results showed that both interventions significantly reduced menstrual pain. The mean pain score in the Abdominal Stretching group decreased from 2.79 to 2.58 (p = 0.022), while the William’s Flexion group showed a greater reduction, from 2.79 to 1.54 (p = 0.000). The Independent t-test confirmed a significant difference in post-intervention pain scores (t = 5.802; p = 0.000), with William’s Flexion Exercise being more effective. These findings support the physiological theory that strengthening the abdominal and lumbar muscles, improving pelvic circulation, and promoting neuromuscular relaxation contribute to the reduction of uterine contractions and pain perception. In conclusion, William’s Flexion Exercise is more effective than Abdominal Stretching Exercise in reducing the intensity of dysmenorrhea. It is recommended that schools and health professionals incorporate this exercise as a routine non-pharmacological method for managing adolescent dysmenorrhea.
