Abstract

Background: Breast cancer is one type of malignancy in breast tissue that is experienced by many women throughout the world, including in Indonesia. Breast cancer shows high morbidity and mortality rates. The East Java Provincial Health Office noted that breast cancer cases have increased from year to year.  The conditions and the process of cancer treatment can lead to psychological problems, including depression.Objective: This research aims to analyze the determinant factors that influence depression levels in breast cancer survivors.Methods: This study utilized the correlation method. The study was conducted in East Java. 158 respondents were selected using a purposive sampling technique. The instrument used in this research was a questionnaire that has been tested for validity and reliability. The data collection method used was face-to-face. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS software, including cross-tabulation and multivariate linear regression test with alpha 0.05.Results: Research findings show that marital status (p=0.021) is related to social support (p=0.002), physical condition (p=0.003), and the level of depression, but there was no relationship between age (p=0.281), the level of education (p=0.752) and the length of illness (p=0.265) and depression levels in breast cancer survivors.Conclusion: It is concluded that the determinants of factors that influence the level of depression are marital status, social support, and physical condition in survivors of breast cancer. Breast cancer survivors are expected to maintain their enthusiasm and not give up to avoid depression, which can reduce their health status.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a condition characterized by the failure to thrive in toddlers, attributed to chronic malnutrition, resulting in shorter stature relative to their age. Mothers play a crucial role in the care of stunted toddlers.Objective: This study aimed to explore and describe the experiences of mothers in caring for stunted toddlers, employing a qualitative study with a phenomenological approach.Methods: The participants in this study comprised ten mothers serving as the primary caregivers for stunted toddlers aged between 19 and 36 years. Participants  were purposively selected, with criteria including being the primary caregiver and a willingness to participate. Data collection involved interviews and observations, and the analysis was then conducted using the Collaizi technique.Results: The findings of this study revealed six overarching themes: breastfeeding history, variations in complementary feeding, a spectrum of emotions experienced by mothers, wishes  for their children, the need for a robust support system, and barriers to feeding. Mothers' experiences in caring for stunted toddlers can provide valuable insights into their needs so that interventions can be designed to address the problems faced by other mothers of stunted toddlers.Conclusion: Mothers' experiences in caring for stunted toddlers can provide valuable insights into their needs so that interventions can be designed to address the problems faced by other mothers of stunted toddlers.

Abstract

Background: Diabetic foot ulcers pose a severe complication for individuals with diabetes mellitus, necessitating effective therapeutic support such as albumin nutrition throughout the wound healing process. Derived from Channa striata, a commonly consumed source of albumin in Indonesia, this extract can potentially expedite wound healing.Objective: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Channa striata extract nutrition in accelerating the inflammatory, proliferative, and maturation phases of diabetic foot ulcer healing.Methods: This quantitative study employed a pra-experimental design using a single-group pretest-posttest approach. The study involved 30 diabetic patients who were administered a daily dose of 550 grams of Channa striata extract over four weeks. The Bates Jensen Assessment Tool (BWAT) assessed wound progress.Results: Results revealed that the average participant age was 60.2 years, with an average diabetic history of seven years. The average wound duration was 8.7 weeks; 66.7% of the participants were female; 70% had Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM); and 56.7% were at stage IV. The study found a significant difference in BWAT scores before and after the administration of Channa striata extract in diabetic foot ulcer patients.Conclusion: This study supports the effectiveness of Channa striata extract as an adjunct therapy in expediting the wound-healing phases in diabetic foot ulcers.

Abstract

Background: Post-COVID-19 survivors or patients show deterioration in respiratory function, physical symptoms, musculoskeletal strength, quality of life (QoL), and psychological problems due to persistent symptoms. These symptoms are associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, reduced antioxidants, and oxidative stress. Physical exercise has been proven to positively affect general and psychological health.Objective: This study intended to explore physical exercise's effect on post-COVID-19 survivors.Methods: Literature in this scoping review was searched from seven databases, including Embase, PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane, Scopus, Ovid-MEDLINE, and Web of Science. A manual search from Google Scholar and citations from previous meta-analyses were also performed. The keywords are “physical exercise” OR “physical activity” AND “post-COVID” OR “Long COVID.” Studies were included if involving patients with post-COVID diagnosis. However, studies that did not focus on post-COVID-19 focused on respiratory rehabilitation and had no complete data were excluded from this review.Results: 33 studies from 1.909 were included (30 from databases and three citations from previous meta-analyses). Physical activity for post-COVID survivors can improve lung function, exercise capacity, functional capacity, physical symptoms (for instance, pain, fatigue), psychological or QoL, and also biochemical and hematological variables (for example, platelets, red blood cells, white blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, creatinine, and urea).Conclusion: Physical activity programs may represent an important supportive therapy for post-COVID-19 survivors. Therefore, health workers are encouraged to closely monitor respiratory parameters or post-COVID-19 patient symptoms and motivate patients to perform physical exercise.

Abstract

Background: Chronic kidney disease is a condition in which the body is unable to maintain balance in metabolism, fluids, and electrolytes due to irreparable damage to kidney function. One of the problems that can occur in hemodialysis patients is thirst. Therefore, it is important to treat thirst. Gargling with peppermint water is one way to quench thirst and overcome it.Objective: The purpose of this study was to find out whether gargling with peppermint water is effective in reducing thirst in kidney failure patients undergoing hemodialysis at Harapan dan Doa Hospital Bengkulu.Method: This study used quasi-experimental methods. The population in this study is 65 patients suffering from chronic kidney failure and undergoing hemodialysis at Harapan dan Doa Hospital in Bengkulu City. The total sample of this study amounted to 36 people who followed the treatment in Harapan dan Doa Hospital Bengkulu, which were divided into two groups, namely the intervention group of 18 people and the control group of 18 people. A purposive sampling technique was used in this study. In addition, visual analog scale instruments for assessing thirst were used as questionnaires to assess thirst.Result: The study showed that there was a difference in average thirst sensation between the intervention groups and the control group. For the Mann-Whitney statistical test for thirst, the p-value was 0.026 (p-value ≤ α 0.05). This suggested that gargling with peppermint water affected thirst in hemodialysis patients.Conclusion: Hence peppermint water gargle therapy may be recommended as a non-drug treatment to control taste thirst in renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Abstract

Background: The practice of infant and young children still does not meet the WHO guidelines, although different types of education have been carried out to increase mothers' knowledge of infant and young children's feeding practices.Objective: To identify the effectiveness of digital education and direct education in increasing the knowledge and practice of infants and children aged 6-23 months.Method: The research design is a systematic review using PRISMA flow. The databases used to search for articles in English published in the period 2013 to 2023 are Pubmed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and MEDLINE using the search keywords ‘Mother OR maternal’, ‘Children OR infants’, ‘Digital based AND health education method’, and ‘Complementary feeding’. A total of 461 articles were obtained using RCT, quasi-experiment, and combined RCT-cohort research designs. Researchers use the Covidence tool for the data selection process through the extraction. Risk of bias assessment uses the JBI instrument to evaluate articles.Results: Four articles detail the efficacy of digital-based education (utilizing smartphone applications, WeChat, WhatsApp, and digital job aid education), while five articles delve into the effectiveness of direct education approaches (peer counseling, personalized counseling, and home visits). Another article examines the effectiveness of both home visits and interactive voice calls. The research spanned multiple countries, including Indonesia, Bangladesh, India, China, Cambodia, Iran, and Brazil, encompassing a participant pool ranging from 110 to 1885 research subjects. Findings indicate that digital education enhances mothers’ understanding of nutrition, essential knowledge, practices in providing complementary feeding in line with IYCF guidelines, and mother’s confidence in preparing complementary foods. Moreover, direct education increased compliance with suggested feeding practices, encompassing dietary variety, intake of animal protein, and the consumption of iron-rich foods.Conclusion: Nurses can enhance knowledge and practice of complementary feeding by embracing digital education as a potential solution and concurrently promoting cultural sensitivity and tailored education.

This type of prognosis has a better response to treatment, and many patients are still in stable conditions. Patients with paranoid schizophrenia need long-term care and supervision from their significant others, especially family members. In this situation, the role and support of the family becomes important; one of the nonpharmacological management for paranoid schizophrenia involving the family is family psychoeducation. In this research, psychoeducation was corrected and enhanced by presenting self-efficacy as part of family psychoeducation. Objective: Self-efficacy-based family psychoeducation aims to provide a better understanding of changes in a person’s behavior on long-term treatment of mental illness. Methods: This study used quantitative and pre-experimental designs with one group pretest and posttest. This study was conducted in the working area of  Jenangan Public Health Center. The research period started in October and continued until November 2023. The authors used a purposive sampling technique. Respondents in this study were family members of paranoid schizophrenia patients who were also their caregivers. This family psychoeducation used a guideline module to guide the therapist on how to perform self-efficacy-based family psychoeducation to respondents. The family caregiving skills for patients with paranoid schizophrenia were assessed using five family health tasks questionnaires and statistically tested with the Wilcoxon test. The total number of respondents in this study was 48 respondents. Results: The results of the statistical analysis showed that the P value was 0.000. This indicated a statistically significant difference, meaning that overall, the Family Psychoeducation intervention based on Self-Efficacy had a positive impact on the family's ability to care for individuals with paranoid schizophrenia. Conclusion: It can be concluded that self-efficacy-based psychoeducation influences caregiving skills for paranoid schizophrenia. This therapy is highly recommended for patients with mental health conditions. This therapy can be applied in hospital settings and in community family nursing. These findings highlight the importance of incorporating family psychoeducation as a part of the comprehensive treatment plan for patients with schizophrenia.
