Abstract

Background: The risk of violent behaviour is an angry response that can arise and can injure oneself, others, and the environment. Laughter therapy has become one of the complementary approaches believed to reduce emotional tension and help control anger. Purpose: To analyse laughter therapy in reducing the risk of violent behaviour in people with severe mental disorders. Method: A qualitative approach method with the Case Study Research (CSR) strategy. Results: There was a decrease in scores on the observation sheet of signs and symptoms in patients at risk of violent behaviour, with the score before laughter therapy being 8 and decreasing to 2 after laughter therapy was administered. Conclusion: Laughter therapy is one of the non-pharmacological therapies to reduce anger, especially in patients at risk of violent behaviour. Keywords: Laughter Therapy; Mental Health; Nursing Care; Risk of Violent Behaviour.

Abstract

Background: Circumcision is a minor surgical procedure that aims to cut and clean the prepuce of the penis for various indications. This minor surgical procedure causes varying degrees of anxiety in most children. One intervention to reduce anxiety in children before circumcision is to distract them with video games. Purpose: To determine the effect of playing video games on anxiety in children undergoing circumcision. Method: A pre-experimental study with a one-group pre-test post-test design. The sample size was 32 children selected based on several criteria: no visual or hearing problems, cooperative patients, no excessive anxiety, and good communication skills. The Child Anxiety Scale was used to assess anxiety. Statistical analysis used the Wilcoxon rank sum test. Results: The level of anxiety in children before circumcision was mostly in the moderate anxiety range before the intervention, with 14 (43.8%) having an average score of 2.25. After the video game intervention, 14 (43.8%) children experienced mild anxiety with an average score of 1.01. The Wilcoxone rank sum test yielded a p-value of 0.001 (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Playing video games can reduce anxiety levels in children prior to circumcision. Keywords: Anxiety; Circumcision; Playing; Video Games.

Abstract

Background: Stroke patients must comply with medication and undergo rehabilitation to prevent recurrent attacks. Self-efficacy plays a significant role in patient adherence to and compliance with these programs. Post-stroke patients have varying functional statuses, which may result in differences in their levels of self-efficacy in carrying out these programs. Purpose: To identify the relationship between patients' self-efficacy in undergoing rehabilitation and treatment. Method: A correlational descriptive study using accidental sampling conducted on 69 post-stroke patients. Data were collected using the Stroke Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (SSEQ), the Self-Efficacy for Appropriate Medication use Scale (SEAMS), and the Barthel Index. Data analysis was performed using Spearman's analysis. Results: Most respondents (40.6%) had high self-efficacy in rehabilitation, 62.3% had high self-efficacy in medication, and 56.5% had mild dependence. There was a significant relationship between self-efficacy in carrying out rehabilitation and the functional status of patients (p = 0.000), and there was a significant relationship between self-efficacy in carrying out medication and the functional status of patients (p = 0.000). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between self-efficacy in undergoing rehabilitation and treatment and the functional status of patients. Health workers, especially nurses, must motivate patients to undergo treatment and rehabilitation, particularly those with low functional status. Keywords: Functional Status; Rehabilitation; Self-Efficacy; Treatment.

Abstract

Background: The increasing incidence of cancer means that more people are living with cancer, which increases the responsibility of informal caregivers. Most caregivers are not prepared to fulfil their duties when taking on responsibility for the treatment and care of patients, which can become a burden on caregivers and affect the care of cancer patients. Purpose: To conduct a literature review that assesses the effects of e-health interventions on the burden of informal caregivers. Method: The research method was a literature review using a scoping review approach. The scoping review used inclusion criteria for articles published between 2020 and 2025, using a randomized control trial and experimental study design, and published in English. Article selection used the PRISMA Flow Diagram. The databases used were PubMed and EBSCO. Proquest and engine search Google Scholar. Results: The results of this literature search found 16,690 articles on e-health. However, only 18 articles met the inclusion criteria. Ten articles were complete but did not focus on the benefits of e-health on caregiver burden. Thus, only five articles met the inclusion criteria. Four e-health interventions were found to have an effect on reducing caregiver burden, such as stress, in family caregivers. Conclusion: These findings indicate that e-health interventions have beneficial effects for informal caregivers of cancer patients in long-term care.
