Abstract

Hypertension is one of the main health problems in the elderly that can reduce the quality of life and increase the risk of complications such as stroke and kidney failure. Hypertension treatment is not only through pharmacological therapy, but also non-pharmacological interventions such as hypertension exercise which has been proven effective in lowering blood pressure. This study aims to implement and evaluate the effect of hypertension exercise on reducing blood pressure in the elderly in the work area of ​​the Kampung Baru Health Center UPT. The method used is a case study of a 71-year-old elderly with blood pressure of 160/100 mmHg. The exercise intervention was carried out for seven consecutive days with blood pressure measurements taken before and after the intervention. The results showed a decrease in blood pressure and complaints of headaches, as well as an increase in patient knowledge about hypertension. Hypertension exercise has been proven to be an effective independent nursing intervention to lower blood pressure and improve the quality of life of the elderly.

Abstract

Labor is the process of expelling the products of conception, namely the fetus and placenta, after reaching full term and being viable in the womb. There are two types of delivery: normal delivery and caesarean section (SC). Caesarean section (SC) is a surgical procedure performed through an incision in the uterine wall to deliver the fetus. Caesarean delivery is indicate in cases of cephalopelvic disproportion, breech or transverse fetal position, fetal weight exceeding 4,000 grams, or maternal health conditions that may endanger the mother and fetus. One of the common complications following caesarean delivery is pain. Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage. An intervention that can be applied to reduce post SC pain is Guided Imagery Therapy. Guided imagery therapy is a non-pharmacological intervention aimed at reducing and controlling pain by creating pleasant and relacing thoughts, focusing on breathing, and visualizing positive scenarios. This study employed a descriptive case study design using the nursing process from assessment to evaluation. The study was conducted on two patients with moderate pain (pain scale 4-6) after SC at TK II Putri Hijau Hosiptal Medan. The results showed that after the application of guided imagery therapy for three days with a duration of 40 minutes per session, pain levels decreased to mild (pain scale 1-3). In ptient I, pain decreased from a score of 5 to 3, an in patient 2, from a score of 6 to 3. In conclusion, guided imagery therapy was successfully applied in reducing post -SC pain levels and can serve as a reference for further research on pain reduction following caesarean section.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the most common diseases experienced by the community and poses a high risk of causing serious complications. Persistently elevated blood pressure can damage vital organs and increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as heart attacks, strokes and kidney failure. The purpose of this study is to determine the implementation of foot reflexology massage to reduce blood pressure in patients with hypertension. This research employed a case study approach involving two hypertensive patients at TK II Putri Hijau Hospital Medan. The Nursing care process included assessment, nursing diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. The results showed a decrease in both systolic and diatolic blod pressure after the foot reflexology intervention. The first patient experienced a reduction in blood pressure from 145/90 mmHg to 130/82 mmHg, while the second patient’s blood pressure from 144/89 mmHg to 128/82 mmHg. The study cocludes that the implementation of foot reflexology massage is proven to be efeective in lowering blood pressure in hypertensive patients. This therapy is recommended as a complementary intervention in nursing practice to assist in controlling hypertension.

Abstract

This study examined the effect of modified mung bean powder (Vigna radiata) media with the addition of glucose and chitin on the growth of Trichophyton rubrum. The results of the One Way ANOVA test showed a p value = 0.931 (p>0.05), indicating no significant difference between the modified media and Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA). Media with a concentration of 2% showed a colony diameter of 97.8% of the control, proving the ability of mung bean nutrition, glucose, and chitin to support fungal growth. The color of the media varied from light to dark yellow without affecting the morphology of the colony. The best growth occurred on the 4th to 14th day with a cotton-like colony texture. These results confirm the potential of modified mung bean media as an economical, environmentally friendly, and effective alternative to SDA, especially for laboratories with limited resources, as well as opening opportunities for the development of local media based on other natural materials.

Abstract

This study aims to develop sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas) as an alternative raw material for producing Gnocchi pasta by processing them into flour and formulating pasta based on local food ingredients. This innovation is intended to increase the added value of sweet potatoes and support food diversification in the community. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach through stages of identifying potentials, collecting data, designing products, validating designs, revising designs, testing products, developing the final product, and conducting limited production. The study was carried out over three months at the Culinary Arts Laboratory of Universitas Negeri Manado. The results show that the sweet potato flour produced through peeling, slicing, heat processing, drying, milling, and sieving generated high-quality flour with a natural purple color and fine texture suitable for Gnocchi production. The formulated Gnocchi made from sweet potato flour exhibited color, aroma, taste, and texture characteristics that were well-received by panelists. Nutritional analysis conducted by the Industrial Research and Standardization Center of Manado revealed that sweet potato Gnocchi contains 55 g of moisture, 28 g of carbohydrates, 6 g of sugar, 3 g of dietary fiber, 2.5 g of protein, 1.2 g of total fat, and 200–300 mg of natural anthocyanins per 100 g. These components indicate that the product has the potential to be developed as a functional food. This study concludes that sweet potatoes have great potential to be developed as raw material for modern pasta products such as Gnocchi due to their favorable physical and chemical properties. In addition, the utilization of local ingredients supports national food diversification efforts, the development of creative culinary industries, and business opportunities for ready-to-cook and ready-to-eat food products.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the differences in routine blood in COVID-19 suspected patients who were confirmed positive and negative who were treated at the Emergency Room of Sultan Suriansyah Hospital Banjarmasin in the period January-June 2022. This study used naso-oropharyngeal swab samples for RT-PCR examination of COVID-19 and hematology analyzer for routine blood tests. This type of research is an analytic survey research with a comparative design. The population of this study were suspected patients admitted to the emergency room with a total sample size of 196 patients who performed RT-PCR tests and performed routine blood tests at the beginning of the treatment period using purposive sampling method. Routine blood results in positive patients mostly obtained leukocytes at normal limits 64.1%, neutrophilia 59.0%, lymphopenia 64.1% increased NLR 66.7% and platelets at normal limits 56.4%. While in negative patients, leukocytes were obtained at normal limits of 46.6%, neutrophilia 61.0%, lymphopenia 61.0% increased NLR 73.7% and platelets at normal limits 64.4.4%. Based on the results of the unpaired T-test statistical test, it is known that there are significant differences between positive and negative patients, namely in the parameters of leukocytes sig. 0.028, neutrophils sig. 0.043 and platelets sig. 0,005. From the results of the unpaired t-test statistical test on routine blood between positive and negative COVID-19 patients, it was found that there were significant differences in the parameters of leukocytes, neutrophils and platelets, while those that were not different were the parameters of lymphocytes and NLR.
