Families of patients with mental disorders frequently experience intolerance of uncertainty due to prolonged treatment, high caregiving burdens, and unpredictable patient behaviors. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of Happy Spiritual Intervention on the intolerance to uncertainty among families of patients with mental disorders. A pre-post quasi-experimental study with a control group was carried out among families of patients undergoing treatment at Dr. Amino Gondohutomo Psychiatric Hospital in Semarang. Simple random sampling was applied to recruit a total of 50 respondents who were aged 18 years or older and had been cohabiting with the patients for more than five months. The intervention group received six 45-minute therapy sessions, while the control group received standard care. This study utilized the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale as research instrument. Data were collected using Google Forms, and subsequent analysis using a t-test was performed. The results revealed a significant difference in intolerance of uncertainty among families of patients with mental disorders after the intervention in both the intervention and control groups, with an effect size of 3.026 and a p-value of 0.000. This suggests that Happy Spiritual intervention effectively reduces the intolerance of uncertainty among families of patients with mental disorders.

Executive functions (EF) play a key role in child development. However, Thai parents’ knowledge and practice skills for their children’s EF are still limited. This study aimed to explore the lived experiences of Thai parents in developing their children’s EF skills in a semi-rural sociocultural context. The theme pattern was interpreted using the Heideggerian hermeneutic phenomenological approach, and the themes were reflected in Van Manen’s fundamental existential themes of the life world. As many as 16 parents were selected using the purposive sampling method. Semi-structured interviews were conducted. The results of this study revealed seven themes: 1) strong resilience, self-confidence, and responsibilities; 2) challenges in handling misbehaving family members and children with poor self-control; 3) living in a natural and peaceful environment; 4) staying away from terrible things; 5) practicing time management; 6) trying to use the mobile phone safely; and 7) organizing belongings and toys. In conclusion, nurses can help parents to increase their children’s EF skills by strengthening parents’ resilience, self-confidence, and responsibilities; supporting parents and co-parents to deal with terrible situations; time management; and preparing a safe, green, and natural environment for children to develop their EF skills.

The life threats for patients admitted in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is higher compared to other care units. The magnitude of the life threats in the ICU not only causes anxiety for patients but also for other families. The family has crucial roles in supporting the patient's recovery, so the holistic needs of the patient's family also require to be considered. This meta-synthesis aimed to synthesize findings from qualitative studies that explored and described the needs of families while accompanying patients in the ICU. A systematic literature search from online databases was used to conduct a qualitative meta-synthesis, which was then evaluated using Critical Appraisal Skill Programme (CASP) checklist for Qualitative Study. Literature that fit the requirements was further analyzed. Three main themes that were fundamental for families were revealed including the need for information, the need for family involvement in patient care, and the need for visiting time for the family. Understanding the family as a unit brings benefits to the patient. It is essential to adapt professional practice strategies that involve families in the daily care of critical patients. Further research is required on how to carry out interventions that translate this knowledge into nursing care practices and actions.

Hypertension requires patients to adhere to a medication regimen that needs to be adhered to for life to control blood pressure and prevent complications. A related factor to medication adherence is patients' health literacy, which influences their ability to maintain hypertension prescription regimens. This factor is critical in managing chronic diseases, such as hypertension, to achieve optimal health. This study aims to investigate the relationship between health literacy and medication adherence in patients with hypertension. The study was conducted at public health care centers in West Sumatra. This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The researchers used a non-probability sampling technique, namely purposive sampling, for a total sample of 175 respondents. Data were collected using the Morisky Medication Adherence (MMAS-8) and Health Literacy Survey Europe-16 (HLS-EU-Q16) questionnaires. Data were processed using computerization with chi-square test. The results showed that 41.7% of patients with hypertension have sufficient health literacy, and 46.9% have low levels of medication adherence. In addition, 52.3% with inadequate health literacy had low levels of medication adherence. The statistical test results obtained a p-value = 0.001 (p < 0.005), indicating a relationship between health literacy and medication adherence. It is essential to improve hypertension treatment adherence by improving the health literacy of patients with hypertension.

Stunting is a significant nutritional issue affecting children that has been the world's concern in recent years, especially in developing countries. The study aims to identify the determinant factors affecting mothers’ feeding practices for children experiencing stunting. The research used an observational and correlation design involving 258 respondents from three health centers. Data were collected through a questionnaire conducted between December 2022 and January 2023. The data analyzed utilized chi-square tests and logistic regression. The variables that dominantly contribute to the practice of meal provision included economic factors for children under five with stunting (P = 0.001, OR = 4.276), compared to other variables such as knowledge (P = 0.004, OR = 2.632), attitude (P = 0.001, OR = 3.237), hygiene (P = 0.013, OR = 3.552), and cultural factors (P = 0.001, OR = 3.216). Economic factors emerged as the primary determinants influencing meal provision practices for stunted toddlers. Economic factors were also dominantly associated with maternal feeding practices for stunted children under five in rural areas

The global risk of morbidity and mortality due to hypertension highlights the importance of optimizing nurses’ roles in controlling hypertension through education. This study aims to develop educational models for patients and families with hypertension. A sequential mixed-method research design was used. Focus group discussions and in-depth interviews were conducted with 28 participants to explore the phenomenon and health education needs of patients and families with hypertension, and the data were analyzed thematically. A survey of 40 people was conducted to identify the elements of a workable model using SEM analysis. The researchers then used an integration matrix to perform the data integration. Seven themes were revealed from the qualitative phase: (1) health problems, (2) scope of educational services, (3) primary service activities, (4) health education methods, (5) information needs, (6) management support, and (7) barriers. The following sub-components were also obtained from the analysis: (1) Health Education Approach, (2) Health Education Program, and (3) Learning Process. The educational model for patients and families with hypertension is complex, and nurses require support to implement such a model. Further research is needed to prove the model’s effect on the personal and interpersonal conditions of hypertensive patients.

The treatment for COVID-19 patients with hypoxia is typically limited to invasive and non-invasive oxygenation therapy without any complementary therapy to accelerate improvement in the patient’s health status. The physiological disorders faced by COVID-19 patients also affect their psychology. Anxiety disorders can interfere with physiological processes, such as respiratory processes, aggravating the patient’s oxygenation problems and leading to worsened conditions and death. Therefore, oxygen therapy and pharmacotherapy must be supported by complementary therapies, such as deep breathing. This research aims to investigate the effects of deep breathing relaxation techniques and nature-based sound therapy on the oxygen saturation and anxiety of COVID-19 patients. This study used a quasi-experimental approach with a pretest-posttest control group design approach with 66 samples selected by non-probability sampling. The sample comprised 33 patients in the control group and 33 in the intervention group. The statistical analysis used the Wilcoxon test. The results showed that deep breathing relaxation techniques and nature-based sound therapy increase the patient’s oxygen saturation values and decrease the anxiety score of COVID-19 patients with a p- value of < 0.001. The control group that received the deep breathing relaxation intervention obtained a p-value of <0.001 for increasing oxygen saturation and reducing anxiety levels. Therefore, deep breathing relaxation interventions and nature sound music therapy positively affect COVID-19 patients’ oxygen saturation values and anxiety scores. There are changes in oxygen saturation and anxiety values in the intervention group and control group

Key indicators for assessing the adequacy of hemodialysis include Inter-Dialytic Weight Gain (IDWG) and Ultrafiltration Goal (UFG), both of which are closely related to patients' hemodynamic status. However, there is limited information on the specifics of IDWG and UFG, particularly in Riau Province. This quantitative study with a descriptive design aims to describe IDWG and UFG in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic in Riau. The research was conducted across three regional hospitals in Riau Province, involving 138 hemodialysis patients. This study employed univariate statistical analysis, using secondary data as the primary source. The findings indicate that in the first four months following the COVID-19 pandemic among hemodialysis patients in Riau Province, the average UFG and IDWG levels exhibited fluctuations, with IDWG in the three hospitals ranging from 2.28 to 3.12, while UFG was be 2.13 to 3.09. The results suggest that stabilizing of IDWG and UFG is crucial to prevent complications arising from these fluctuations, such as activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system, and increased cardiac output.

Nurses’ Professional Quality of Life (Pro-QOL) scores are important because they influence health service quality. Thus, assessing the nurses’ quality of professional life is essential to identify the organization’s strengths and weaknesses. This research aims to develop a Workplace Violence prevention model to improve nurses’ professional quality of life. This is an analytical observational study with a cross-sectional research design. The sample comprised 178 nurses working in private hospitals in Jember Regency, East Java Province. The determinants of workplace violence are directly influenced by nurse factors at 34.6% and patient factors at 46.1%. The factor influencing workplace violence the most is the patient factor, reflected by the patient's knowledge indicators. Coping is a mediating variable between workplace violence and professional quality of life. Positive coping strategies have a direct influence of 72.8% on nurses’ professional quality of life. This study concludes that patient factors influence the workplace violence prevention model, and patient knowledge can prevent workplace violence toward nurses. Additionally, positive coping strategies can help nurses to improve their professional quality of life.
