Introduction: Patients undergoing hemodialysis experience an influence in terms of the biological, psychological, social and spiritual problems that they encounter. In particular, there are biological aspects that affect weight gain between dialysis sessions. In terms of the psychological aspect, there is an influence on emotional vulnerability, such as anxiety, fear and despair. They need family support, especially as part of a couple. This study aimed to determine the relationship between partner support and IDWG in hemodialysis patients.Methods: This study used a descriptive cross-sectional design. The population consisted of 60 hemodialyzed people. The sample was recruited using purposive sampling, resulting in 42 respondents who met the inclusion criteria. The study was conducted in a Private Hospital in Surabaya. The independent variable was partner support and the dependent variable was the IDWG in the hemodialysis patient. The data was collected through a questionnaire and it was analyzed using the Spearman test.Results: The results show that there was a relationship between partner support and IDWG hemodialysis patients with p = 0.025 (α ≤0.05).Conclusion: Good partner support reduces the low IDWG in hemodialysis patients. Therefore, determining the level of family support especially that given by a partner of a IDWG hemodialysis patients will positively support better IDWG hemodialysis patients, thus preventing them from the potential side effects of IDWG such as hypotension, muscle cramps, shortness of breath and cardiovascular problems.
Objective:. COVID-19 is a type of disease that infects the human respiratory tract. Transmission of the COVID-19 virus is fast and aggressive. Vaccination is one of the preventive measures that is of concern to inhibit the spread of Covid-19. Booster doses of vaccination are carried out to maintain the effectiveness of the vaccine. AEFI is any medical event that is not expected to occur after immunization where the events are varied, because everyone experiences different symptoms. .Methods: The research design used a quantitative descriptive study with a population of 211 students and a sample of 138 using a purposive sampling technique. Data analysis using descriptive analytic.Results: The results showed that the AEFI symptoms that often appeared after the AstraZeneca, Moderna, Pfizer, and Sinovac booster doses of vaccination were Headache, Fever, Pain accompanied by weakness at the injection site, Muscle aches, Swelling at the injection site, Lethargy, Weakness/numbness throughout the body, Weakness on the muscles of the arms and legs, Cough/runny nose, other symptoms (local rash (swelling/red/itchy) on: skin, lips and eyes).Conclusion: KIPI is an effect caused after vaccination. By knowing these symptoms, it is hoped that the community can prevent and prepare for appropriate management in dealing with KIPI.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
