Physiological changes due to inflammation in patients with (COPD) significantly led to a decrease in carbon dioxide levels in the blood. It can trigger physiological changes in the form of anxiety to depression. This study aimed to identify the level of anxiety in patients with stable COPD. The study was using quantitative descriptive design, sample of 70 patient, questionnaire STAI (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory). The majority of respondents are male (85.2%), aged> 65 years (35.5%) had quit smoking (97.5%) with duration of smoking cessation> 2 years (49.0%), and the majority COPD patients had> 2 years (60.0%). Most of the patients had a moderate level of anxiety (42.8%), and mild (30.0%), or severe (27.2%). Anxiety is not treated immediately will risk causing disturbances in various aspects of life of patients. Thus, it is important for patients detection and treatment of anxiety quickly and precisely along with the medical treatment of COPD.
The main clinical manifestations of patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) during the acute period is chest pain. Handling complaints of pain patients with ACS definitively done with medication; however, it is possible to do additional nonpharmacological therapies to optimize the results. Nonpharmacological treatment can be performed in various ways, one of them with heat therapy. This literature review aimed to determine the use of heat therapy as an additional nonpharmacological intervention in reducing the intensity of chest pain in patients with ACS. Four electronic databases were used to carry out systematic searches on articles, namely Proquest, Science Direct, Pubmed, and CINAHL-Ebsco. The combination of keywords was "heat therapy" AND "chest pain" AND "acute coronary syndrome" NOT "Literature review" OR "Literature review" OR "Overview" OR "Systematic Review" OR "Meta-analysis." The inclusion criteria used were experimental study articles, peer-reviewed articles, and research articles written in English and performed in the period between 2014-2019. The search results obtained three articles that met the inclusion criteria and analyzed. The results of the study found that heat therapy effective in reducing the intensity of chest pain, the use of analgesic opioids, and improving the patient's hemodynamics. In conclusion, the therapy can be considered used as adjunctive therapy to reduce chest pain in patients with ACS with certain criteria. In addition, further research is also needed to see the effectiveness of this therapy if it is implemented with more frequent frequencies and compare its effectiveness in reducing chest pain if the application is given to the anterior or posterior of the chest.
Depresi dalam kondisi akut akan berdampak fatal pada pasien, seperti memperburuk keadaan infark, meningkatkan morbiditas dan mortalitas. Angka kejadian depresi pada pasien Sindrom Koroner Akut (SKA) dalam fase akut di berbagai negara cukup tinggi. Namun, di Indonesia sendiri belum diketahui bagaimana hasil pengkajian depresi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat tingkat depresi pasien Sindrom Koroner Akut (SKA) yang menjalani perawatan di Unit Intensif Jantung RSUP dr. Hasan Sadikin Bandung. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain deskriptif analitik dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Jumlah sampel 84 responden yang diambil dengan purposive sampling. Pengumpulan data menggunakan instrumen Cardiac Depression Scale (CDS). Hasil penelitian didapatkan bahwa sebagian besar responden laki-laki (75%) dan berusia ≤60 tahun (64.3%), menikah (83.3%), dan mayoritas suku sunda (79.8%). Responden dalam penelitian ini mengalami depresi ringan-sedang (21,4%), berat (14,3%), dan sebagian lainnya tidak mengalami depresi (64,3%). Tingkat depresi pasien sebagian besar berada dalam kategori sedang hingga berat, oleh karena itu perlu dilakukan skrining depresi sedini mungkin sehingga asuhan keperawatan untuk pencegahan depresi dapat ditingkatkan.
Pendahuluan: Pasien SKA mengalami komplikasi psikologis, khususnya depresi. Pengetahuan akan faktor yang berkontribusi terhadap kejadian depresi sangat diperlukan, sehingga kejadian depresi dapat dicegah sedini mungkin. Penelitian bertujuan untuk melihat faktor yang berhubungan dengan kejadian depresi pada SKA pasien. Metode: Studi literatur ini dibuat dengan melakukan analisis terhadap artikel ilmiah yang dipublikasi tahun 2009 sampai 2019 dan berbahasa Inggris. Data didapatkan dari database PubMed, DOAJ, dan Proquest. Hasil:Analisis terhadap 16 artikel, didapatkan bahwa berbagai depresi pada SKA pasien ditemukan oleh faktor, yaitu faktor demografi (usia, jenis kelamin, pendidikan, dan status perkawinan), status sosial ekonomi, kesehatan dan tahap, penyakit penyerta, periode rawat inap, episode SKA, tingkat keparahan penyakit, dukungan sosial, nyeri, indeks tubuh, perilaku kesehatan, riwayat keluarga dengan depresi, dan riwayat gangguan depresi mayor sebelumnya. Kesimpulan: Telaah literatur ini dapat menjadi dasar dalam penanganan faktor yang mempengaruhi depresi pada pasien SKA, sehingga depresi dapat mencegah sedini mungkin.
