Abstract

Hallucinations, characterized by altered perception of stimuli leading to exaggerated or abnormal responses, can pose significant risks, including violent behavior that may harm the individual, others, or the environment. Addressing hallucinations promptly is crucial, with hallucination management being a key intervention. This study aims to describe the characteristics of clients with hallucinations and assess the effectiveness of hallucination management. Utilizing a case study design and a purposive sampling technique, this study focused on individuals who had experienced sensory perception mental disorders with hallucinations for over a year. Data were collected through participatory observation, unstructured interviews, and documentation and analyzed using domain analysis. The findings demonstrate that hallucination management therapy significantly reduced the severity of hallucinations, transitioning from moderate to mild within six interventions. Hallucination management is effective in enhancing safety and comfort for individuals experiencing hallucinations, highlighting its critical role in mental health care. Keywords: Mental health nursing; auditory hallucination; innovation in community care; healthcare services; case studies

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated a shift to online learning or study from home (SFH), which introduced a range of psychological stressors and associated challenges. This study investigated the correlation between stress levels and SFH among students. Utilizing an observational study design, the research included 241 respondents. Various validated instruments were employed to measure the scores of each variable and ethical clearance was secured before the study commenced. Spearman rank testing was conducted to assess the correlation between stress and SFH. The results demonstrated a significant correlation, indicating that studying from home contributes to heightened stress levels among students. Based on these findings, it is recommended that community healthcare professionals develop and implement interventions that specifically address the psychological well-being of students engaged in home-based learning. Keywords: Nursing care; community care; innovation care; learning method; study from home

Abstract

Blood pressure is crucial in healthcare, and measurement deviations can lead to diagnostic errors and incorrect treatment. Additionally, blood pressure helps detect various cardiovascular diseases. Most people measure blood pressure in only one arm, neglecting the other. However, blood pressure readings can vary due to many factors. This research aims to measure differences in blood pressure between the left and right arms, specifically systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and mean arterial pressure (MAP). The study employed a quantitative approach with a comparative observational analysis design. Probability sampling, specifically proportional stratified random sampling, was used for sample selection. A digital blood pressure monitor was utilized for measurements. Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon surrogate test. The statistical Wilcoxon test showed a mean difference of 0.002 (p<0.05) in the SBP measurements, indicating a significant difference between right and left-arm SBP measurements. The systolic blood pressure in the right arm was 102.37 mmHg, which was 1.66 mmHg higher than that measured in the left arm. While there is a difference in the average systolic, diastolic, and MAP results between the left and right arms, it is insignificant. However, the right arm's systolic blood pressure (SBP) is notably higher than the left. Keywords: Blood pressure measurements; hypertension; health assessment; innovation; healthcare delivery

Abstract

The source of professional nurses is inevitably needed in the near future. Contradictory, the nursing professional source remains debatable, as the fact of the occurrence of a nursing turnover rate. Studies reported personal reasons influenced the nurse turnover rate in which parental role conflict was included. The current study utilizes feminist ethics to explore parental role conflict in nurses, specifically in relation to their professional career development in nursing. Applying a feminist ethics approach to understanding parental role conflicts enables a comprehensive analysis of prospective alternatives from both policy and educational perspectives. Prospective alternatives grounded in feminist ethics can effectively address the moral imperatives of respecting nurses' career development preferences and general rights. This paper contributes to developing novel solutions for the ethical dilemmas of parental issues and night shifts in healthcare settings that could benefit healthcare professionals. Keywords: Feminist ethics; night shift nurses; nursing career development;parental role conflict; hospital

Abstract

Diarrhea is the second leading cause of death among children under five years of age. It can persist for an extended period, leading to dehydration and potential malnutrition. While the literature presents various complementary therapies for managing diarrhea, there is a notable lack of studies specifically addressing the use of honey to mitigate hyperactivity of bowel movements in affected patients. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the benefits of honey in children experiencing diarrhea. The study involved two pediatric patients who were administered pure honey over a two-day period. The dosage consisted of 5 cc of honey mixed with 10 cc of water, given three times daily at 07:00, 17:00, and 21:00. The honey used in the study was confirmed to be pure. The findings suggest that pure honey is effective in reducing the frequency of bowel movements in children with acute diarrhea. This conclusion is supported by the observed outcomes in both patients, which indicated a reduction in bowel movement frequency following the administration of honey. Consequently, it is recommended that pure honey be considered as a complementary treatment for children suffering from acute diarrhea.

Abstract

Many pregnant women experience discomfort and pain in various body parts, particularly in the back, as their uterus and fetus grow. Endorphin massage, a gentle touch therapy, can provide relief and comfort for pregnant women approaching delivery. This study aims to overview nursing care for third-trimester pregnant women experiencing acute pain issues through the application of endorphin massage. The research utilized a case study design with a consecutive sampling technique. Participants included third-trimester pregnant women suffering from back pain, who received 15 minutes of endorphin massage once daily in the afternoon. Results indicate that the application of endorphin massage significantly reduced the pain scale for the participants, decreasing from an average of 8 to 1 over six consecutive visits. This suggests that endorphin massage effectively alleviates the intensity of back pain in third-trimester pregnant women.

Abstract

Diabetic Chronic Kidney Disease is a complication of diabetes marked by a progressive decline in kidney function. When kidney function falls below a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of 15 ml/min (Stage 5), patients require renal replacement therapies, such as hemodialysis. This condition can significantly impact a patient's quality of life. This study aims to identify patient characteristics, assess quality of life, and explore the relationship between patient characteristics and quality of life in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus complicated by Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease at RSUP Dr. Kariadi Semarang. The research used a cross-sectional design and the KDQoL-SF36 questionnaire for data collection. Results indicate that the patient group was predominantly elderly (90.7%), male (62.8%), married (88.37%), and primarily educated at the primary or secondary level (74.42%). A majority were unemployed (53.49%) and had an income greater than 3.000.000 IDR (62.79%). Most patients had been diagnosed with CKD Stage 5 for ≤12 months (62.79%), were receiving monotherapy for diabetes management (58.14%), and had more than one comorbidity (90.7%). The overall quality of life was rated favorably, with an average score of 72.09%. The study concludes that, while the quality of life is generally favorable, it is not significantly influenced by the specific patient characteristics examined. No correlation was found between these characteristics and the quality of life in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease at RSUP Dr. Kariadi Semarang. Keywords: Cross-sectional study; kidney disease; prevention; quality of life; type 2 diabetes

Abstract

Preoperative care begins upon the patient’s arrival in the operating room and continues until their transfer to the operating table. This stage is often associated with heightened anxiety among patients. Despite the prevalence of this issue, limited research has been conducted to evaluate the effect of Holy Qur'an recitation in alleviating preoperative anxiety. This study aimed to determine the effect of listening to Qur'an recitation (Murattal) on anxiety levels in preoperative patients in the Surgical Ward. A quasi-experimental design was employed, incorporating a pre-test and post-test with a control group design. The sample consisted of 32 respondents selected through non-probability purposive sampling. The intervention involved a single 15-minute session of listening to the recitation of Surah Al-Mulk via MP3 headphones, followed by a post-test evaluation. Statistical analyses included the Shapiro-Wilk test, homogeneity test, paired sample t-test, and independent sample t-test, with a significance threshold set at p < 0.05. The findings demonstrated a significant reduction in anxiety levels among preoperative patients following the Murattal Qur'an therapy. This suggests that Murattal therapy is an effective method for reducing anxiety and may serve as an alternative or complementary approach to managing anxiety among preoperative patients. Keywords: Anxiety, health innovation, healthcare provider, holy Qur'an, preoperative stage

Abstract

Peptic ulcers are a leading cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, with the highest incidence observed among men and the elderly. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is the gold standard diagnostic tool, offering sensitivity and specificity rates of up to 90% for identifying peptic ulcers. This study aimed to describe the characteristics of peptic ulcer cases in patients presenting with hematemesis and/or melena who underwent EGD at RSUD Temanggung in 2023. A quantitative descriptive design was utilized, employing retrospective data collection from medical records of patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. A total of 23 medical records were analyzed. Among the 23 cases of hematemesis and/or melena, peptic ulcers were the most common diagnosis, accounting for 47.8% (11 cases). Erosive gastritis was the second most common diagnosis (39.1%, 9 cases), followed by esophageal varices (13.0%, 3 cases). Of the 11 patients diagnosed with peptic ulcers, 63.6% were aged over 60 years, 27.3% were aged 40–59 years, and 9.1% were aged 19–39 years. Regarding gender, 81.8% of peptic ulcer patients were male, and 18.2% were female. The majority (90.9%) of patients had ulcers classified as Forrest III, while 9.1% were classified as Forrest IIc. The most common nursing problems identified included ineffective tissue perfusion (36.4%), nausea (36.4%), and pain (27.2%). The findings highlight that the majority of peptic ulcer cases involved Forrest III ulcers, and key nursing concerns included managing ineffective peripheral tissue perfusion and nausea. This study underscores the need for targeted interventions to address these common nursing problems and improve patient outcomes in peptic ulcer management.
