Abstract

Introduction: Aging is the process of tissue loss or decline in the ability to maintain normal bodily functions. Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling asleep, frequent nighttime awakenings and difficulty falling back asleep, waking up too early in the morning, and restless sleep, even with adequate sleep duration. Insomnia can have negative impacts on sufferers, including physical and mental health issues such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, obesity, depression, and anxiety. Furthermore, insomnia also impacts social and productivity, such as decreased work performance and relationship problems due to emotional instability. Hypnotherapy is a form of healthcare that involves a state of deep relaxation and focus to help patients overcome various problems. In hypnotherapy, the client and hypnotherapist work together to achieve goals. During therapy, the nurse acts as a guide, maintaining full awareness and control over the client. The client will remain conscious during the session, be able to hear the therapist's voice, remember what happened, and even reject suggestions if they don't align with their values. Method: This research is a descriptive case study design. The subjects were two elderly individuals who served as respondents. The study was conducted in the working area of the Panti Sosial Tresna Werdha Budi Luhur Jambi on May 27-29, 2025. Results: Based on the results of the study that has been conducted for 3 days in 1 week for 45 minutes, it was concluded that before the application of hypnotherapy, the results obtained from the two respondents were Mr. S score of 33 and Mr. N score of 35, indicating that both were categorized as severe insomnia. After the application of hypnotherapy, the results obtained from the two respondents were Mr. S score of 22 and Mr. N score of 24, indicating a change that was categorized as mild insomnia. Conclusion: Hypnotherapy significantly impacted the change in insomnia scores, as evidenced by the difference in insomnia scores before and after the intervention. This recommendation is for nurses to implement independent nursing interventions through complementary hypnotherapy.

Abstract

Introduction: The use of antibiotics in children aged 2–5 years is an important public health issue because at this age the immune system is still developing, so children are more susceptible to bacterial infections. This study aims to analyze the relationship between maternal knowledge levels and antibiotic use behavior in children aged 2–5 years at the Children's Polyclinic of Sitiung 1 Community Health Center, Dharmasraya Regency in 2025. Methods: This study used a descriptive correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study were all mothers with children aged 2–5 years who visited the Children's Polyclinic of Sitiung 1 Community Health Center. Sampling was carried out using a purposive sampling technique of 80 respondents. The research instrument used a structured questionnaire. Bivariate analysis was carried out using the Spearman Correlation test with a significance level of 5% (p <0.05). Results: The analysis showed a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.062 with a p value = 0.584 (p <0.05). Conclusion: there is no positive relationship with very low strength between maternal knowledge levels and antibiotic use behavior in children. This study recommends that healthcare workers improve education regarding the appropriate use of antibiotics, strengthen communication with mothers, and encourage active participation in outreach programs. These efforts are expected to reduce the risk of antibiotic resistance and improve child health.
