Abstract

Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV) is a common complication following surgery, including procedures involving spinal anesthesia, which can increase patient discomfort and length of hospital stay. Ondansetron is effective in preventing PONV, but its effectiveness may depend on the timing of administration. This study aimed to compare the incidence of PONV in patients who received ondansetron before and after spinal anesthesia at RSUD Wates. A comparative quantitative method was used with 40 respondents. Data were analyzed using the Mann–Whitney test, which showed a significant result of 0.003 (p < 0.05). In the group receiving ondansetron before spinal anesthesia, 5 respondents (25%) experienced mild nausea and 15 respondents (75%) reported no nausea or vomiting. In contrast, in the group receiving ondansetron after spinal anesthesia, 7 respondents (35%) reported no symptoms, 6 respondents (30%) experienced nausea only, and 7 respondents (35%) experienced vomiting or retching. It can be concluded that administering ondansetron before spinal anesthesia is more effective in preventing PONV.

Abstract

Number of vegetarians in Indonesia is rising. This increase may be attributed to improvement of people knowledge regarding health benefits of high fiber plant-based diet especially to reducing the risks of degenerative diseases. However, high fiber plant-based food especially mushroom-based food that being accepted by majority of panelists are limited to oyster and straw mushroom. Hence, the goal of this research is to get the best formula based on organoleptic and crude fiber content from Auricularia polytricha and red dragon fruit peel extract as a food for vegetarian diet. This study used experimental study with Randomized Block Design (RBC) method with two experimental factors: the concentration and volume of red dragon fruit peel extract (25 ml and 50 ml) and the proportions of wheat flour and Auricularia polytricha (30:70, 50:50, 70:30). Organoleptic test results data were analyzed using the Krusskal Wallis test and the Man-Whitney U test to test it further. The results showed that there was a significant effect of the nugget ingredient formulation on color, taste, and texture of the nuggets (p<0,05), and there was no significant effect on the aroma of the nuggets (p>0,05). The highest crude fiber content was found in nuggets with a composition of 70% Auricularia polytricha and 30% wheat flour with the addition of 50 ml red dragon fruit peel extract, which was 36.88%, and anthocyanin content of 0,99 mg/100 g. The best formula for Auricularia polytricha nuggets with the addition of red dragon fruit peel extract is J3E2 with a composition of 70% Auricularia polytricha and 30% wheat flour and the addition of 50 ml of red dragon fruit skin extract.

Abstract

Pulmonary tuberculosis (pulmonary TB) is an infectious disease that attacks the respiratory system, especially the lungs, and can cause various clinical symptoms, one of which is decreased oxygen saturation (SpO₂). Decreased oxygen saturation can worsen the patient's condition and affect their quality of life. Therefore, effective interventions are needed to increase oxygen levels in the body, especially through safe and easy-to-implement non-pharmacological approaches. One intervention commonly used in nursing practice is the semi-Fowler position, which is a lying position with the head of the bed elevated around 30–45 degrees, which is believed to improve lung expansion and increase ventilation. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of implementing the semi-Fowler position on increasing oxygen saturation in pulmonary TB patients. The study was conducted using a descriptive method through a case study approach on three pulmonary TB patients treated in the Mawar Room of Subang District Hospital. Data were collected through direct observation of oxygen saturation using a pulse oximeter at minute 0 (before intervention), minute 10, minute 30, and more than minute 60 after the patient was placed in the semi-Fowler position. The results showed a significant increase in the SpO₂ values of the three patients after 30 minutes in the semi-Fowler position, with an average increase from 92–93% to 95–96%, and these values tended to be stable for more than 60 minutes after the intervention. These findings suggest that the semi-Fowler position can be an effective non-pharmacological nursing intervention option to increase oxygen saturation in pulmonary TB patients. The application of this position is recommended in daily nursing practice to help overcome respiratory disorders, increase comfort, and accelerate the recovery process of pulmonary TB patients.

Abstract

The need for continuous midwifery care (Continuity of Care) is crucial given the high maternal and infant mortality rates that still frequently occur. One common problem in neonates is flatulence, which can cause discomfort to the baby and anxiety to parents. One non-pharmacological treatment that has been proven effective for flatulence in infants is the "I Love You" (ILU) massage technique. This technique has been widely recognized for its simplicity and safety in providing comfort to infants experiencing flatulence. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of the ILU massage technique on an 11-day-old infant experiencing flatulence symptoms. The research design used was a descriptive case study, in which Mrs. Q's baby, who complained of flatulence, was the subject of the study. The ILU massage technique consisted of movements that form the letters I, L, and U on the infant's abdominal area, which aims to stimulate gas movement in the digestive tract. In addition to the ILU massage technique, the intervention also included other supporting movements such as the moon-sun movement and flexing the infant's legs to increase the effectiveness of gas expulsion. The results of this intervention showed a positive response from the infant, with the infant beginning to pass gas after the massage. This suggests that therapy using the ILU massage technique can reduce the symptoms of bloating in infants. Furthermore, mothers were educated on proper breastfeeding positions to prevent air intake, which can exacerbate bloating. Mothers were also taught how to perform ILU massage independently at home, enabling parents to be more active in their infant's care.

Abstract

Futsal is a high-intensity team sport that requires a combination of speed, agility, and physical endurance, particularly cardiorespiratory endurance. Cardiorespiratory endurance is crucial because it directly relates to a player's ability to maintain optimal performance throughout a match, particularly when facing fast-paced and stressful play. Therefore, variables that can influence this ability, such as body composition and nutritional status, are crucial in developing athlete performance. One indicator that can be used to measure nutritional status and body composition is the Body Mass Index (BMI), which is obtained by measuring weight and height. BMI not only reflects whether a person is within the ideal weight range but also potentially influences the efficiency of the body's organs, including the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. In the context of futsal, players with a higher BMI tend to have a higher body weight, which can hinder movement efficiency and increase fatigue during matches. Conversely, players with a lower BMI may have insufficient energy reserves and muscle mass to maintain stamina during matches. This study shows a significant negative relationship between BMI and cardiorespiratory endurance in futsal players at Bali International University. The results of statistical tests using the Spearman rank correlation method showed a correlation coefficient (r) of -0.504 with a significance value of p = 0.005. This indicates that the higher a player's BMI, the lower their cardiorespiratory endurance tends to be. These findings support the importance of ideal body weight management in futsal athlete training, both through dietary adjustments and measured physical exercise programs.

Abstract

The common cold in infants is a frequent health problem that requires proper management to prevent potential complications such as pneumonia, bronchitis, sinusitis, laryngitis, and febrile seizures. Management strategies for the common cold can be carried out through pharmacological approaches, such as the administration of syrups and powders, and non-pharmacological approaches, including traditional methods like common cold massage. This study aims to analyze the effect of providing education about common cold massage on mothers’ knowledge in managing the common cold in infants. The research employed a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design using a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The study population consisted of 40 mothers who had infants aged 4–12 months registered at the Gunungpati Health Center. A total sample of 36 respondents was obtained through simple random sampling. The research instrument was a structured knowledge questionnaire specifically developed to assess understanding of common cold massage techniques and their role in managing symptoms. Data analysis was conducted using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test to evaluate differences in knowledge levels before and after the educational intervention. The results showed a significant increase in mothers’ knowledge after receiving education, with a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05), indicating that the intervention was statistically significant. These findings highlight the importance of non-pharmacological educational programs, particularly common cold massage, as a complementary approach to infant health care. Implementing such education can empower mothers with practical skills to manage early symptoms and potentially reduce complications. It is recommended that further studies be conducted in different settings with more varied sociodemographic backgrounds to ensure broader applicability and to explore the integration of traditional massage education into community health programs.

Abstract

Breast carcinoma, commonly known as breast cancer, is a type of malignancy that occurs in the milk-producing ducts and sacs of the breast. Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death in Indonesia, after lung cancer. One of the early steps in detecting breast cancer is through breast self-examination (BSE). Although BSE can help detect lumps or abnormalities in the breast, many adolescent girls are unaware of how to perform this examination or its importance. One reason for this is the lack of education regarding the correct method and the significance of performing BSE regularly. Therefore, an effective educational approach is needed, such as peer education, where peers provide information to their fellow students about the importance of self-breast examination. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of a peer education program on improving adolescent girls' knowledge of BSE. This research uses a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design, specifically a one-group pretest-posttest design. The population in this study consisted of female students from grades X and XII at SMK Nurul Islami Semarang, with a sample of 35 students selected through simple random sampling. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire that included questions about the students' knowledge of self-breast examination. The results were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test, which showed an Asymp Sig (2-tailed) value of 0.000, which is smaller than 0.05. This indicates that the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted, meaning there is a significant effect of the peer education program on increasing adolescent girls' knowledge of BSE. The findings of this study suggest that peer education is an effective method for raising awareness among adolescent girls about the importance of early breast cancer detection, thus encouraging them to perform self-breast examinations more regularly.

Abstract

ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) is one of the manifestations of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and is a leading cause of disability and death worldwide. The mortality rate for STEMI is reported to reach 6%–14% of all ACS deaths. Reperfusion therapy is the primary treatment, with fibrinolytics an important option, especially in healthcare facilities that do not have the capacity to perform primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) in less than 12 hours. The success of fibrinolytics is influenced by various risk factors, such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, a history of heart disease, and the duration of the attack. This study aims to determine the relationship between these factors and the success rate of fibrinolytics in STEMI patients. This study used a retrospective descriptive design with a cross-sectional method. The sampling technique used total sampling of patients diagnosed with STEMI and receiving fibrinolytic therapy according to inclusion and exclusion criteria at Dr. Fauziah Hospital. Statistical analysis was performed using the Chi-Square correlation test to assess the relationship between clinical variables and fibrinolytic success. The results showed no significant association between hyperglycemia (p = 0.823), hypertension (p = 0.240), or a history of heart disease (p = 0.704) and fibrinolytic success. Similarly, the onset of stroke variable did not show a significant association with reperfusion outcomes. In conclusion, classic risk factors such as hyperglycemia, hypertension, and a history of heart disease were not associated with fibrinolytic success in STEMI patients at Dr. Fauziah Hospital. These results suggest that fibrinolytic success is likely influenced by other factors, such as timing of drug administration, protocol adherence, and individual variation in response to therapy. Further research with a larger sample size and a prospective design is recommended to strengthen these findings.
