Abstract

Patients with Gout Arthritis often suffer from intense pain. While there's no one-size-fits-all cure for joint pain in older adults with this condition, there are various ways to ease the discomfort. Cinnamon compresses can help alleviate the symptoms. Compounds like eugenol and cinnamaldehyde in cinnamon create a warm feeling on the skin, calming inflammation by slowing down pain signals. This can help lower sensitivity to pain and make it easier to manage. The case study method used was a descriptive case study method, with two subjects of older ages with Gout Arthritis, using the format of assessment of family nursing care and evaluation of pain scales. Cinnamon compresses are carried out four times a week using 2 ml of cinnamon liquid, with 200cc of water, at a temperature of 40-450C, followed by compresses for 15-20 minutes using a washcloth. After applying cinnamon compresses four times a week, the study showed a decrease in pain intensity before and after the intervention was given to the two subjects. The Subject's pain intensity decreased from moderate to mild pain. The application of cinnamon compresses is effective in reducing the intensity of Gout Arthritis pain.

Abstract

Arthritis in RA patients causes pain, swelling, and decreased joint range of motion. It can lead to decreased independence and limited activities, reducing the quality of life. The process of foot massage also impacts the process of vasodilation and increased blood circulation. It increases the activity of the autonomic nervous system, which stimulates increased production of endorphins, which is expected to reduce pain. The case study used a descriptive method with two old older adults with Rheumatoid Arthritis, using the family nursing care assessment and pain scale assessment. The application of foot messages is carried out for 20 minutes for three days. After applying foot massage for three consecutive days, the study showed a decrease in pain intensity between before and after the intervention was given to the two subjects. The subject's pain intensity decreased from moderate pain intensity to mild pain. Applying foot massage effectively reduces the intensity of Rheumatoid Arthritis pain.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between self-efficacy and medication adherence among 83 hypertensive patients at the Sering Community Health Center in Medan. Using a cross-sectional design, self-efficacy was assessed using the General Self-Efficacy Scale, and adherence was measured through self-reported medication adherence. The findings reveal a significant positive correlation between self-efficacy and medication adherence, highlighting that patients with higher self-efficacy are more likely to adhere to prescribed treatment regimens. Duration of hypertension emerged as a significant predictor of adherence. These findings underscore the importance of psychological factors in chronic disease management and suggest that interventions aimed at enhancing self-efficacy could improve adherence and health outcomes among hypertensive patients. Future research should explore longitudinal designs to establish causal relationships and consider cultural factors in intervention strategies.
