Abstract

Background: Scabies is a highly contagious skin disease frequently found in communal environments, including Islamic elementary schools. Limited health literacy and poor hygiene practices among students contribute to its continued spread. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the relationship between health literacy, hygiene practices, and scabies prevention behaviors among Islamic elementary school students. Methods: A cross-sectional analytic study was conducted involving 50 students at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI) Miftahul Ulum Blaban, Pamekasan, East Java. Data were collected using structured questionnaires assessing health literacy, hygiene practices, and scabies prevention behaviors. Spearman’s rank-order correlation was used to analyze the relationship between variables, with a significance level of p < 0.05. Results: The majority of students (60%) demonstrated poor hygiene behavior, and 40% had low health literacy. A significant positive correlation was found between health literacy and scabies prevention (r = 0.479, p < 0.001), as well as between hygiene practices and scabies prevention (r = 0.455, p < 0.001). Conclusion: Higher levels of health literacy and improved hygiene practices are associated with better scabies prevention behaviors among Islamic elementary school students. Strengthening school-based health education is essential to reduce the incidence of scabies in similar educational environments.

Abstract

Background: Stroke emerged as a serious global health problem, ranking as the leading cause of disability and the second leading cause of death worldwide. The most common impact of stroke was impaired physical mobility, especially with damage to the brain's motor centers or nerve pathways controlling body movements. In stroke patients, this disorder could appear directly after an acute attack and persist into the rehabilitation phase if not treated properly. One intervention to address physical mobility disorders in stroke patients was the application of a combination of Bobath therapy and balance exercises to accelerate motor function recovery, prevent immobilization complications, and increase patient independence. Objectives: This case study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the application of the combination of Bobath therapy and Balance exercise on physical mobility disorders in stroke patients. Methods: This study is a case study of a description of one stroke patient in Mrs. S in the Arjuna Room of Bhakti Dharma Husada Hospital Surabaya by using a descriptive nursing process with an approach to describe in depth the application of the intervention to the patient. Results: The implementation of a nursing intervention in the form of a combination of Bobath therapy and balance exercise who experienced physical mobility impairment due to non-hemorrhagic stroke for six days showed positive results. Conclusion: The increase in muscle strength can be seen from the patient's ability to maintain posture, transition from lying down to sitting to standing, and show better stability during balance exercises.

Abstract

Background: Early readmission in stroke survivors remains a critical issue, particularly in patients with mild initial symptoms but who experience early recurrence within a short period. Evaluating both patient and caregiver readiness for discharge is essential to improve home care outcomes and prevent avoidable hospitalizations. Objectives: This case study aims to assess discharge readiness in a post-stroke patient and their caregiver using the PATH-s instrument and examine its implications for readmission prevention. Methods: A descriptive single-case study was conducted involving a 66-year-old male with a secondary ischemic stroke within 30 days of the initial attack. Data were collected via clinical records and interviews. Discharge readiness was evaluated using the Preparedness Assessment for the Transition Home after Stroke (PATH-s) instrument, consisting of 25 items. The assessment was guided through a structured interview due to the patient's limited ability to self-complete the questionnaire. Results: The PATH-s assessment yielded a total score of 69 out of 100, indicating a moderate level of discharge readiness. The average score per item was 2.67 out of 4, suggesting a need for additional support in specific areas. The domains identified for improvement included financial capacity, home and transportation accessibility, long-term prognosis, and patient insight about stroke. Conclusion: Evaluating discharge readiness in the patient and family caregiver helped increase awareness of home care limitations and guided appropriate nursing interventions. These findings highlight the value of structured assessments like PATH-s in supporting clinical decision-making and individualized discharge planning.

Abstract

Background: Stroke patients often experience hemiplegia or hemiparesis. Proper treatment can help the healing and recovery process. Objectives: This study aims to provide an overview of the implementation of the combination of Range of Motion (ROM) and Head of Bed (HOB) Elevation in ischemic stroke patients with impaired physical mobility in patient Mrs. L in Room Y, Surabaya Hospital. Methods: This type of research is descriptive, using a case study approach. Nursing care was provided from June 4 - June 6, 2025. The results of the assessment on Mrs. L had a stroke with hemiparesis. The nursing problems obtained were decreased intracranial adaptive capacity, impaired physical mobility, and risk of falling. The interventions given were head up 30 ⁰, Range of Motion, and education of patients falling. Results: The application of a combination of Range of Motion and Head of bed elevation with impaired physical mobility significantly helps the healing and recovery process in stroke infarction patients. Conclusion: Evaluation of nursing problems shows that the nursing diagnosis of decreased intracranial adaptive capacity and impaired physical mobility is partially resolved with increased muscle strength from 1 to 2 and increased range of motion, and the patient does not fall.
