Abstract

Appendicitis is a condition characterized by inflammation of the appendix. While mild cases may resolve without treatment, many require surgical removal of the infected appendix through a procedure known as laparotomy. Post-appendectomy pain can significantly impact daily activities, including rest, sleep, and personal well-being. Severe pain, if not addressed promptly with non- pharmacological interventions, can lead to neurogenic shock. Methods: This study employed a descriptive case study approach to investigate the effectiveness of deep breathing relaxation techniques in managing post-appendectomy pain. Results: The study involved two respondents who underwent deep breathing relaxation exercises twice daily for 15 minutes over three days. The results showed a decline in pain intensity for both respondents. Respondent 1 experienced a reduction from moderate pain (score of 3) to mild pain (score of 2), while Respondent 2's pain intensity decreased to moderate pain (score of 3). Conclusion: The findings suggest that deep breathing exercises and relaxation techniques can be beneficial in reducing pain levels in post-appendectomy patients when practiced consistently over a period of time.

Abstract

Fracture is one of the emergency cases in orthopedics which requires fast and precise management to avoid morbidity and mortality caused. Fracture management includes surgery to clean the crushed bones, perform internal and external fixation and connect the broken bones with special pins, plates, screws, or rods. After surgery, pain due to surgical incisions can be reduced. Method: This type of research is descriptive by establishing a case study method that can explore the problem of Nursing Care in patients with fractures. The results of this study indicate there was a decrease in the pain scale in fracture patients after splinting and deep breathing relaxation; this was shown by the pain scale in patients after the splint dressing and deep breathing relaxation was in the range of 3-7, and before the splint dressing and deep breathing relaxation was carried out it was in the range 6-9. This happens because applying a splint can reduce the movement of the bone or injured area so that it does not cause a painful sensation in the patient. So splint application and deep breathing relaxation have an effect on reducing the pain scale in fracture patients after being given pain management measures with splint application and deep breathing relaxation. Conclusion:Based on the results of the discussion of the results of the Implementation of nursing carried out on Mr. H with pain management, it can be concluded that there is an effect of splint installation and deep breathing relaxation. In the assessment at 12.30, the results obtained before deep breathing relaxation were obtained: the patient complained of pain with a pain scale of 8 (severe), respiratory rate of 24x /, pulse rate of 118x /, and after the splint installation and deep breathing relaxation were carried out, the patient said the pain was moderate with a pain scale of 6.Suggestion: It is expected that the family and patient handle problems experienced by patients by teaching deep breathing relaxation if pain occurs.

Abstract

Diabetic foot ulcers and diabetic ulcers are some of the consequences that diabetic patients often face. This study aimed to determine wound care using primary dressings on the feet of diabetic patients with tissue integrity problems. The method used in this study was a case study. This study utilized the intervention of treating diabetic foot ulcers of Mrs. J with primary dressings at the ETN Center Makassar Wound Care Home. This study was conducted with one respondent. After the diagnosis was established, the possible nursing intervention was to provide a primary dressing on the wound. After weekly patient wound care, I could see the changes. The visible changes were: The appearance of the scar will differ between the first and second visits. On the first visit, the wound looked like a thin serous exudate: 20%, epithelialized or pink: 70%. However, on the second visit, the wound looked like a thin serous exudate: 15%, epithelialized or pink: 85%. Based on the primary dressing wound care carried out, it can be concluded that primary epithelial cream wound care is effective in healing diabetic ulcers.

Abstract

Background: Health is a fundamental human need that requires adequate support from healthcare facilities, including hospitals. The leadership of inpatient unit leaders plays a strategic role in influencing nursing performance and the quality of healthcare services. Military hospitals, characterized by a hierarchical structure and a workforce comprising both military personnel and civilians, differ fundamentally from government hospitals, which are primarily staffed by civilian healthcare professionals. This study aims to analyze the leadership styles of inpatient unit leaders at a Military Hospital (Level II Pelamonia Hospital) and a Government Hospital (RSUD Haji Makassar). Method: This study uses a quantitative approach with a descriptive cross-sectional research design. The sample consists of 98 respondents, equally distributed between Level II Pelamonia Hospital (49 respondents) and RSUD Haji Makassar (49 respondents). Data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Results: The chi-square test results indicate no significant difference in the leadership styles of inpatient unit leaders at Level II Pelamonia Hospital and RSUD Haji Makassar (? = 0.372, ? = 0.05). Therefore, the null hypothesis (H?) is accepted, and the alternative hypothesis (H?) is rejected. Conclusion: There is no statistically significant difference in the leadership styles of inpatient unit leaders at t

Abstract

: Background: Pain in fracture patients is one of the symptoms of a partial or total bone tissue discontinuity damage that causes discomfort. One of the nonpharmacological therapies used according to evidence-based nursing is guided imagery. People with health problems ranging from musculoskeletal problems to terminal illnesses have used guided imagery to relieve symptoms, find meaning, stimulate healing, and make changes, stimulate healing, and make important lifestyle changes that support and encourage healing. However, the use of this implementation is still minimal in nursing. Therefore, this research study was conducted to assess the effect of guided imagery in reducing pain intensity, especially in fracture patients. Method: The method of writing this article uses case studies in patients with costa fractures. Results and Discussion: After 3 days of guided imagery with Levine's theoretical approach, pain decreased from a scale of 6/10 to 3/10. Conclusions: Guided imagery is effective in reducing pain with Levine's theory approach in costa fracture patients.

Abstract

Abstract: Extravasation resulting from the administration of hypertonic electrolyte solutions, such as 3% sodium chloride (NaCl 3%, 513 mEq/L sodium, 1027 mOsm/L), a hyperosmolar agent, can pose a significant risk of local tissue injury, particularly when administered via peripheral vein access. Peripheral vein access is commonly used for IV therapy, including the administration of medications, blood products, and fluids, but it carries an elevated risk of extravasation. Methods: A literature review was conducted to evaluate clinical approaches for managing extravasation, including the application of hydrocolloid dressings, warm compresses, and saline irrigation. Results: A 61-year-old female presented to the emergency department with complaints of pain, erythema, and swelling in the left arm, which had progressively worsened over the previous two days. The symptoms were localized to the site of a previous peripheral IV insertion, where 3% sodium chloride had been administered during prior inpatient treatment. Conclusion: Extravasation of hypertonic electrolyte solutions such as 3% NaCl can lead to serious local tissue damage if not managed promptly. Close monitoring of infusion sites is essential to prevent complications.

Abstract

Nurses must have experience and knowledge in serving patients. One way to prevent potentially fatal errors, such as administering the wrong medication, drawing lousy blood, or medical procedures inappropriate to the patient's condition, is to identify the patient. This study aimed to determine the relationship between nurses' work motivation and compliance when identifying patients receiving medication. This research was designed observationally and used a cross-sectional approach. At the Faisal Islamic Hospital Makassar, 43 nurses were sampled. Nurse compliance observation sheets and work motivation questionnaires were used. The Chi-Square statistical test was used with a confidence level of ? = 0.05. The results showed that, with a value of p = 0.035, there was a relationship between nurses' work motivation and their compliance in identifying patients when administering medication. The recommendation from this research is that the head of the room must carry out regular supervision regarding nurses' compliance in administering medication according to standard hospital operational procedures.

Abstract

Brain tumors are uncontrolled abnormal cells that continue to grow in the brain unconsciously, disrupting the brain's working system. Brain tumors have been divided into two large groups, namely primary and secondary or metastatic brain tumors. Both secondary brain tumors are tumors that originate from other parts of the body and then spread to the head (brain). This study aims to determine the application of nursing care for Mrs. R in the action of craniotomy removal of tumors with a diagnosis of brain tumors in the central surgical installation room of RSUD. Labuang Baji Makassar. This case study uses an observation method regarding the surgical procedure and is descriptive of the case study and nursing process approach. In this case study, the results were obtained after an assessment was carried out until nursing intervention was given for 1x5 hours. Then, the brain tumor was resolved by performing a craniotomy removal of the tumor. Based on the results of the discussion of the results of the case study and the nursing care provided, it can be concluded that the nursing diagnosis taken in the case of a brain tumor (meningioma) with a craniotomy removal of the tumor in the central surgical installation room of RSUD. Labuang Baji in the pre-phase is chronic pain and anxiety; in the intraoperative phase is the risk of bleeding; and in the postoperative phase is the risk of infection so that the nursing care actions given to the four diagnoses are in accordance with the interventions provided in the 3S book (SDKI, SLKI, SIKI).

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the diseases that increases every year Diet at the risk of hypertension is still not carried out because many hypertensive patients still have poor dietary behavior. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of education level and family support on diet in people at risk of hypertension with the Self Care theory approach. This case report method uses analytic observation by taking data on the level of education and family support using a questionnaire sheet as many as 80 respondents in outpatient X Lampung Hospital. The results showed that the variable that most influenced diet in people at risk of hypertension was family support with a value of (0.001) with a coefficient of - .420. Based on this, it can be seen that family support can affect diet in people at risk of hypertension, so it is necessary to have family support in people at risk of hypertension to reduce the risk of hypertension in people with risk of hypertension.

Abstract

Background: Nurses continuously interact with patients and provide interventions according to their needs and responses over a 24-hour period. Given this vital role, clinical nurses must maintain a high level of competency to ensure the quality and safety of patient care. Hospitals are therefore required to establish training programs that address the developmental needs of their staff, aiming to meet a service standard of at least 20 hours of training per year. However, the average training achievement among external employees often falls short, making it essential to explore alternative strategies to enhance learning hours and workforce competencies. One such method is peer teaching. Method: This study employed a descriptive analysis approach. The implementation of peer teaching activities was conducted in several phases: the preparation phase, the implementation phase, and the evaluation phase. Results: The findings revealed that the average pre-test score was 75, while the average post-test score increased to 91. Observations during the process indicated that clinical nurses actively participated in discussions throughout the peer teaching sessions.Discussion: The peer teaching method significantly enhances learning motivation and encourages active student engagement. Rather than passively listening and taking notes, students become directly involved in the learning process, contributing ideas and interacting with peers. This engagement supports improved long-term retention of knowledge.Conclusion: Peer teaching positively influences the improvement of clinical nurses’ competencies. Further in-depth studies are recommended to explore the impact of this method on learning satisfaction.
