Abstract

Coronary heart disease is caused by the narrowing of blood vessels due to atherosclerotic plaque. Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is used to improve myocardial perfusion. Nursing education is crucial in enhancing patient understanding, preventing non-compliance with treatment, and helping them maintain a healthy lifestyle while preventing complications. This study aims to determine the effect of post-operative Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) care education on the knowledge level of patients in the ICVCU Room at dr. Iskak Tulungagung Hospital. This study employed a quasi- xperimental method. The sample was selected using consecutive sampling, consisting of 30 respondents. The instruments used were questionnaires, leaflets, and educational videos. Data analysis was conducted using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The findings indicate that before the education was provided, most respondents had a moderate level of knowledge, with 19 respondents (63.3%). After the education, there was an increase, with the majority of respondents (63.3%) demonstrating good knowledge. The Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test showed an Asymp. Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.000, indicating a significant effect of education on increasing patient knowledge in the ICVCU Room at dr. Iskak Tulungagung Hospital.Improved understanding of post-PCI care plays a crucial role in reducing the risk of complications, such as bleeding at the puncture site or side effects from the prescribed medications

Abstract

Diabetic neuropathy is a serious complication of diabetes mellitus that can lead to a decline in patients' quality of life. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of various approaches to diabetic neuropathy care, including nutrition, digital technology, clinical simulation, and traditional protocols. A systematic literature review (SLR) was used, analyzing six primary articles published between 2015 and 2025. The results showed that nutritional approaches such as Metanx can significantly reduce neuropathy symptoms and improve patients' quality of life. Digital technology approaches have also been shown to improve patients' self-efficacy and self-care behaviors, while virtual simulation can improve nurses' clinical skills. The conclusion of this study is that a more holistic and integrated approach is needed to improve the quality of life of diabetic neuropathy patients. Future research should include a more robust study design with an adequate control group to ensure the validity of the findings .

Abstract

Reproductive health issues remain a significant concern among adolescents. Data from the Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) in 2012 indicate an increase in premarital sexual behavior among adolescents, which may lead to various negative consequences such as unwanted pregnancy, abortion, sexually transmitted infections, and sexual violence. This condition highlights the importance of health education efforts to improve adolescents’ knowledge of reproductive health. This study aimed to determine the effect of health education counseling on adolescents’ knowledge of reproductive health. This study employed a quasi-experimental design using a one group pre-test and post-test approach. A total of 20 respondents were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a reproductive health knowledge questionnaire. Health education counseling was provided after the pre-test, followed by a post-test to assess changes in knowledge levels.

Abstract

Scabies is a contagious skin disease caused by Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis . This condition represents a significant health problem as it can lead to severe morbidity and, if left untreated, may even result in mortality. The high prevalence of scabies in Islamic boarding schools is influenced by the lack of knowledge and attitudes among students regarding personal hygiene. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of health education on personal hygiene in improving knowledge and attitudes toward the prevention of scabies among students. This research employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-post test approach. A total of 63 respondents were selected using stratified random sampling. The results showed that prior to the health education intervention, 92.2% of respondents had poor knowledge and 85.7% had poor attitudes. After the intervention, good knowledge increased to 44.1% and good attitudes increased to 48.9%. Data analysis using the Wilcoxon Sign Rank Test revealed a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05), indicating a significant difference in students' knowledge and attitudes before and after the intervention. The implementation of health education proved effective in enhancing students' knowledge and attitudes regarding personal hygiene and can serve as an important source of information in the prevention of scabies in Islamic boarding schools.

Abstract

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic lung disease characterized by persistent airflow limitation. COPD exacerbation often causes increased dyspnea, respiratory rate, and decreased oxygen saturation, leading to an ineffective breathing pattern. This study aimed to determine changes in the breathing pattern of patients with COPD exacerbation after nebulizationtherapy at the Pulmonary Outpatient Clinic of RSUD Kabupaten Kediri. This study used a descriptive case study design involving five patients with COPD exacerbation. Data were collected through direct observation before and after nebulization using respiratory rate (RR), oxygen saturation (SpO₂), and the Borg CR10 Scale to assess the level of dyspnea. The results showed a decrease in respiratory rate and Borg score, as well as an increase in oxygen saturation in all patients after nebulization. In conclusion, nebulization provides a positive response in improving the breathing pattern of patients with COPD exacerbation in the outpatient setting.

Abstract

Teenage pregnancy remains a leading cause of maternal and neonatal mortality, posing significantly higher risks compared to pregnancies in the standard reproductive age. This study aimed to investigate the influence of teenage pregnancy on maternal and perinatal outcomes at RSI Aminah Blitar. A retrospective cross-sectional design was employed using purposive sampling of secondary data from 52 medical records. The independent variable was teenage pregnancy, while the dependent variables were maternal and perinatal outcomes. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square statistical test. High frequencies of complications were observed: anemia (87%), preeclampsia (85%), and premature rupture of membranes (PROM) (73%). Perinatal outcomes included prematurity (60%), low birth weight (LBW) (52%), and asphyxia (56%). Chi-square analysis revealed that teenage pregnancy significantly influenced maternal outcomes such as anemia (p=0.001), preeclampsia (p=0.000), and PROM (p=0.000). However, no significant correlation was found with instrumental delivery (p=0.887), prolonged labor (p=0.636), or postpartum hemorrhage (p=0.168). Regarding perinatal outcomes, teenage pregnancy significantly affected prematurity, LBW, and asphyxia (all p=0.000). Teenage pregnancy is strongly associated with adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. There is an urgent need for collaborative support from healthcare providers and families to ensure high-quality midwifery care, aiming to mitigate complications from gestation through delivery.

Abstract

Joint pain is a common problem among the elderly, which can reduce quality of life and limit daily activities. Non-pharmacological interventions, such as warm and cold compress therapy, are often used to alleviate discomfort in older adults. The effectiveness of compress therapy is influenced by the type of pain, joint condition, and individual preferences, making it important to study the effect of both warm and cold compresses as pain distraction interventions. This study aimed to determine the effect of warm and cold compress therapy as a pain distraction on joint pain intensity in elderly residents at Wisma Tulip UPT PSTW Tulungagung and to identify the elderly’s preferences for the type of compress therapy. A one group pretest–posttest quasi-experimental design was used with 10 elderly participants experiencing joint pain. Pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) before and after the administration of warm and cold compresses. Data were analyzed descriptively, and the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test was used to assess differences in pretest and posttest pain scores. Results: Both warm and cold compress therapies were effective in reducing joint pain. Cold compress therapy resulted in a more significant reduction in pain compared to warm compress therapy. Most respondents (70%) preferred cold compresses due to the rapid pain relief and comfort they provided, while 30% preferred warm compresses for muscle relaxation. Statistical analysis confirmed that cold compress therapy produced a more clinically meaningful decrease in pain scores than warm compress therapy. Conclusion: Warm and cold compresses are effective as pain distraction interventions for elderly individuals with joint pain, but cold compresses are more effective and preferred. The choice of therapy should be tailored to the type of pain and individual preferences to enhance comfort and improve the quality of life of the elderly.
