COVID-19 is a disease caused by the SARS Cov-2 virus which can be transmitted through air or droplets. The palm of the hand is one of the members of the body that is most occupied by viruses, bacteria and microorganisms. To avoid the spread of the COVID-19 virus, you can wash your hands in 6 steps. This community service activity in the form of health education aims to improve the behavior of a clean and healthy life by washing hands in 6 steps. The service was carried out at Inspirasi SMP with a total of 76 participants. The material was delivered by lecturing using PowerPoint media plus discussion and question and answer sessions as well as the practice of washing hands in 6 steps. All participants can wash their hands properly according to the instructions and tutorials from the service team. As many as 65% of participants stated that this community service activity was very good and provided great benefits for preventing the transmission of COVID-19 at Inspiration Junior High School. The conclusion of this service activity was carried out smoothly and successfully. Efforts to prevent the transmission of COVID-19 need to be improved with continuous health education for various groups of society. So that nurses and other health workers can optimize preventive efforts as a counselor, negotiator, and educator
Introduction: As many as 1 billion people in the world or about 1 in 4 adults suffer from hypertension. Many people with hypertension still ignore their disease, even though if left untreated it will lead to further complications. This is because knowledge about hypertension affects the quality of life for people with hypertension. Method: This study aims to determine the relationship between the level of knowledge and the physical activity of people with hypertension. This study used a quantitative analytic study with a cross sectional approach. The sampling technique used proportional random sampling. The study population was 100 people, and a total sample of 50 people. The research instrument used an accurate knowledge questionnaire of 20 items to see the level of knowledge and a physical activity questionnaire on the SF-12 to see the quality of life. Result: The results showed that the respondents had more knowledge than the average yaiu as many as 32 people (64%). While the physical activity of respondents in the good category was 25 people (50%). Conclusion: Based on the results of the analysis, the conclusion is that there is a significant relationship between knowledge and physical activity in patients with hypertension as evidenced by the value of ρ value =0.002 and the value of chi square (X2) = 9.810.
Introduction: High blood pressure causes several complications such as heart failure, kidney failure, stroke, circulation problems and death. Hypertension can be triggered by stress due to activation of the sympathetic nervous system which causes an intermittent increase in blood pressure. Patient's knowledge of hypertension is an important factor in controlling blood pressure and reducing stress levels. Objective: This study aims to determine the prevalence and correlation of the level of knowledge and stress in people with hypertension. Methods: This type of research is quantitative analytic with a cross sectional approach. The population in this study were hypertension patients in the Public Health Centre of Cijeungjing working area who were more than 30 years old with a total 101. The research sample was taken as many as 50 respondents with purposive sampling technique. The research instrument used was a questionnaire to measure the level of knowledge of hypertension and the perceived stress scale (PSS-10) as a measure of stress levels. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20 with Chi Square statistical test. Results: The results showed that the majority of respondents had more knowledge than the average of 27 people (54%). While the majority of respondents' stress levels were in the medium category, namely as many as 33 people (66%). Conclusion: Based on the results of the analysis, it is concluded that there is no significant relationship between knowledge and stress levels of hypertensive patients as evidenced by the value α <ρ value (0.05> 0.067) and the value of chi square (X2) count <chi square (X2) table (5.709 < 12,592).
Introduction: Femur fracture is a break in the continuity or fracture in the thigh caused by external pressure or physical exertion which is characterized by deformities such as shortening of the leg in the fractured part and limitation of motion. Objective: This case study aims to overcome the physical mobility constraints and activity limitations of the patient Method: Physical examination of the fracture of the femur was performed using the head-to-toe method in postoperative patients with Open Reduction Internal Fixation. The North American Nursing Diagnosis Association is used to determine nursing diagnoses. Meanwhile, nursing intervention refers to the Nursing Intervention Classification and the Nursing Outcomes Classification. Result: A nursing diagnosis of physical mobility impairment with the diagnosis number 00085 was given a nursing intervention in the form of a ROM excercise. After 7 days of nursing intervention, physical mobility impairments were resolved with the criteria that the patient's joint movement increased from stiffness to being able to move, the patient's muscle movement increased with muscle strength from 3 to 5, the patient's balance from very disturbed to slightly disturbed, the patient's way of walking from very annoyed to be quite annoyed. Conclusion: ROM Excercise can increase physical mobility aided by using a mobilization aid (crutch), so it is important to do in patients with a diagnosis of impaired physical mobility
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.
