<![CDATA[Introduction : Asthma’s symptoms are commonly persistent in each asthmatic client, but they could be controlled. This control directly refers to asthma level of control. It could be affected by asthma risk factors and preventive behavior to exposures, but the correlation between them is still unclear because the development of asthma is not fully understood and very complex. The objective of this study was to explain the correlation between asthma risk factors and preventive behavior to exposures to asthma level of control.Method : This study used cross-sectional design and involved 41 respondents which are taken by simple random sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires and then analyzed by using Spearman Rho correlation with level of significance ≤0.05.Result : Result showed that asthma risk factors had correlation with asthma level of control (p=0,032), but preventive behavior to exposures had no correlation with asthma level of control (p=0,095).Conclusion : It can be concluded that asthma level of control has correlation with asthma risk factors. Preventive behavior has no correlation with asthma level of control could be caused by the differences between the respondents preventive behavior and the recommended one. It indicates possible errors or unsuitability in preventive behavior to asthma risk factor exposures. However, preventive behavior to asthma risk factors exposures is still necessary in order to decrease asthma symptoms.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is deficiency of insulin and caused by decreases of insulin receptor or bad quality of insulin. As a result, insulin hormone does not work effectively in blood glucose regulation. String bean juice contains thiamin and fiber may regulate blood glucose level. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of string bean juice to decrease blood glucose level of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Method: This study employed a quasy-experimental pre-post test control group design and purposive sampling. The population were all type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in Puskesmas Pacar Keling Surabaya. Sample were 12 patients who met inclusion criteria. The independent variable was string bean juice and dependent variable was blood glucose level. Data were analyzed by using Paired T-test with significance level of α≤ 0.05 and Independent T-test with significant level of α≤0.05. Result: The results showed that string bean juice has an effect on decreasing blood glucose between pre test and post test for blood glucose with independent T-test is p=0.003.In conclusion, string bean juice has an effect on blood glucose level in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Discussion: The possible explanation for this findings is string bean juice contains two ingredients: thiamine and fiber. Thiamine helps support insulin receptors and glucose transporter in cells hence GLUT-4 could translocated to the cell membrane brought glucouse enter to the intracellular compartment, that leads to blood glucouse level well regulated. Dietary fiber reduces food transit time so slowing the glucose absorption. Therefore blood glucose level will be decreased.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: The rate of maternal mortality in Indonesia according to 2002–2003 Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) was 307 per 100,000 live births. The direct causes of maternal deaths, among others, are prolonged labor, hemorrhage, infection, and preeclampsia. Referral system includes referring responsibility to better facilitated healthcare sites to obtain more adequate services. However, maternal referral process in Banjar District still faces some problems such as referral health providers with inadequate skills of handling emergency cases, insufficient means of transportation, and no referral letter or partograph. Usually, when referred, the pregnant woman is only accompanied by her family so that she is brought to the referral site without being equipped with infusion. The objective of the study was to evaluate the parameter of maternal delivery referral in Ratu Zalekha Martapura District Hospital.Method: This study used observational study with a cross-sectional study design using quantitative and qualitative approaches. Samples were 107 delivering women referred to hospitals selected with non probability sampling. Data were analyzed with Chi-square (χ) and logistic regression test.Result: Quality maternal referral process resulted in healthy women 78.8%. Post delivery women's health was greater in quality maternal referral process (RP = 2.1; 95% CI = 1.28–3.52). Normal delivery had an opportunity towards post delivery women's health (RP = 1.6; 95% CI = 1.13–2.20). In addition, time needed to reach the referral sites and referral birth attendants were significantly associated with maternal referral process (p = 0.002 and p = 0.002). Meanwhile, women's condition when referred was insignificant statistically.Discussion: Quality maternal referral process could likely improve post delivery women's health.Normal delivery affected the women's health condition.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Diabetic ulcers accompanied by ischemia is difficult to treat. Such ulcers require therapy that can improve the blood flow. Previous studies have revealed that two therapies could improve blood flow and accelerate the healing of diabetic ulcers; vibration and electrical stimulation (ES). However, it is unknown which of these two therapies is best at accelerating wound healing in diabetic ulcers. The purpose of this study was to compare both therapies in relation to accelerating the wound healing of diabetic ulcers.Methods: This study was an experimental study involving diabetic rats. The rats were divided into two groups: vibration and ES. Vibration and ES were applied for 10 minutes per day for 7 days. Wound size, inflammation, intensity of fibroblast infiltration, area of necrosis and degree of re-epithelialisation were compared. The difference in wound size was analysed using an independent t-test, while the histological data were analysed using a Mann-Whitney U-test.Results: On day 5 onwards, there was a thin slough in the ES group which was not present in the vibration group. Day 4 onwards and the wound size was significantly smaller in the vibration group than in the ES group. The intensity of inflammation was significantly less, and the degree of fibroblast infiltration was significantly higher in the vibration group compared with the ES group. Re-epithelialisation was more advanced in the vibration group than the ES group.Conclusion: Our study revealed that wound healing in diabetic ulcers following vibration was better than after ES. We suggest that nurses should use vibration rather than ES in clinical settings.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Meditation healing exercise (MHE) using the SKT technique is popular in Bangkok, Thailand, while in Surabaya, Indonesia, it is relatively new and unpopular. The attitude towards MHE depends on various internal and external factors. This study aimed to compare the attitude towards MHE between the elderly who are living with hypertension (HT) and/or diabetes mellitus (DM) in Bangkok and Surabaya.Methods: This was a comparative study involving 96 and 100 elderly individuals with HT and/or DM in the communities of Surabaya and Bangkok respectively. The sample was chosen according to the aforementioned criteria. The sample size was 196. The instrument used was a valid and reliable questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, the Levene test, and an independent sample T test were used for the data analysis.Results: The majority showed a positive attitude towards MHE; the higher Mean and lower SD was found in Bangkok (19.43 and 2.41). Out of the total, 87.5% and 96.0% elderly had good attitude towards MHE in Surabaya and Bangkok respectively. There was a significant attitude difference in relation to the aspect of preferring to practice MHE between Bangkok and Surabaya (p=0.004). Overall, there was no significant attitude difference between Bangkok and Surabaya (p=0.17).Conclusion: The elderly attitude towards MHE was mostly positive and good. The elderly in Bangkok prefer to practice MHE more than in Surabaya. There was no significant attitude difference in the elderly who are living with HT and/or DM between Bangkok and Surabaya. The implementation of MHE using the SKT technique has a high possibility of being accepted personally by the elderly in both sites.]]>
