Abstract

Background: Discharge planning is a major focus of healthcare systems worldwide. Coordinating services from the hospital to the community, ensuring smooth patient discharge, reducing length of stay (LOS) in the hospital, and reducing patient readmission rates. Purpose: To explore the components discharge planningin heart failure patients. Method: A systematic search for relevant peer-reviewed articles was conducted using electronic database sources. This literature review used 10 qualitative journal articles obtained through ProQuest, ScienceDirect, and ClinicalKey with a publication period of 2020-2024 using the keywords “exploration” AND “discharge planning” AND “heart failure”. Results: The analysis showed that discharge planning programs were effective in reducing the number of readmission days in the hospital compared to the previous duration of care. In addition, this program also increased patient compliance in taking medication, expanded knowledge about self-care management for heart failure patients at home, and reduced treatment costs. Conclusion: The integration of these key components in discharge planning can increase the success of heart failure patient care and prevent re-hospitalization. Recommendation: It is expected that discharge planning can be applied in all inpatient services to reduce readmissions, especially in heart failure patients.

Abstract

Background: Chronic diseases in children, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD), diabetes, and asthma require complex long-term management because they can affect the quality of life physically, psychologically, socially, and educationally. One of the new innovations in supporting the management of chronic diseases in children is the use of chatbots that play a role in education, health monitoring, and psychological support. Purpose: To review the literature on the effectiveness of chatbots in supporting self-care in children with chronic diseases. Method: This literature review study examined the effectiveness of chatbots in supporting self-care in children with chronic diseases. The articles used were from ProQuest, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Inclusion criteria included publications from 2014-2024 that focused on children with chronic diseases. The search keywords used were "conversational agent", "chronic disease management", and "children". The search for articles used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and obtained 6 articles for review. Results: Analysis of the selected articles suggests that chatbots have the potential to provide easily accessible educational resources, assist in regular monitoring of children's health, and provide emotional support to children in managing chronic diseases. However, there are several challenges, such as limitations in chatbot personalization and the importance of family involvement in chatbot use. Conclusion: Chatbots have great potential to support chronic disease management in children, although further development is needed on the aspects of personalization and data privacy to make their use more effective and safe for children. Suggestion: Long-term research is needed to assess the lasting impact of chatbots on children’s health outcomes, including mental development and quality of life. Developing more personalized and responsive chatbots and exploring their integration with other technologies such as wearables are also interesting areas for further exploration.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is one of the nutritional problems in toddlers that has become a global concern. Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem due to a lack of nutritional intake over a long period characterized by height that is not by age, which occurs in toddlers. Surakarta City is one of the areas that ranks 17 out of 35 districts/cities in the Central Java Province with the highest stunting prevalence rate of 20,4% in 2021. Based on the survey results, it was determined that the health center with the highest number of stunting cases in Surakarta City is Pajang Health Center, with 187 stunting children. Village governments are required to participate actively in dealing with stunting. However, several regions in Indonesia still have problems in dealing with stunting cases. Purpose: To analyze the role of village government in the Pajang Village area in handling stunting policy. Method: This study was qualitative. The informants were selected using purposive sampling. They were divided into two groups: primary informants and triangulation informants. The main informants were the Midwife, Nutritionist, integrated service post chairman of work program 4 family empowerment and welfare. The triangulation informants were The Head of the Village and The Village Secretary. Results: Based on Ryaas Rasyid's Theory, this study's results show that the village government's role as a regulator, denominator, and facilitator has been implemented well and optimally, but there are obstacles to budget allocation related to stunting. Conclusion: The role of the government as a regulator has been running well, as seen from the optimal planning, implementation, and evaluation in handling stunting. The role of the government as a denominator is seen in providing education and training to nutritionists, cadres, and the community. Meanwhile, the role of the government as a facilitator has not been running optimally because there are still obstacles in managing the budget related to stunting and the lack of facilities provided by the village government.

Abstract

Background: Diabetes is a chronic disease that will be suffered for life and can have an impact on complications, one of which is Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) which is characterized by a decrease in the value of the Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) and is the main cause of the increasing number of gangrene incidents and amputations. To prevent these complications, it is necessary to have therapy that can increase the value of the Ankle Brachial Index (ABI), which is by combining acupressure therapy and warm water foot soak (hydrotherapy). Purpose: To analyzing the effectiveness of the combined therapy of acupressure and warm water foot soak towards Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) value in type II diabetes mellitus. Methods: Using a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest design approach with 51 participant. The participant were taken using simple random sampling technique and divided into 3 intervention groups. The first group is acupressure (n = 17), the second group is warm water foot soak (n = 17) and the third group is a combination of acupressure and warm water foot soak (n = 17). The normality test in this study was conducted using the Shapiro Wilk test, the dependent t test was used to determine any changes in each group while comparing the effectiveness of Ankle Branchial Index (ABI) values of each group using the one way anova test. Results: The use of acupressure therapy can have an effect on the value of the Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) with a significance value of p:  .000. The group receiving warm water foot soak therapy also experienced changes but the change in the Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) value was not too significant because the significance value was obtained p:  0.002. While in the group with the combination of acupressure and warm water foot bath has a significance value of p: 0.000 Conclusion: The combination therapy of acupressure and warm water foot soak provides an effective influence on the ankle branchial index with a significance value of p: 0.000 (p < 0.05) compared to warm water foot soak therapy which has a significance value of p: 0.002. (p< 0,05). By combining acupressure therapy and warm water foot soak, sclerosed blood vessels can stretch due to the effect of heat which causes vasodilation of blood vessels which has an impact on smooth blood flow and can carry oxygen and nutrients well, especially to the feet.
