Health-Related Quality of Life for Patients with Cardiovascular Disease after a Coronary Artery Bypass Graft: A Systematic Review
Get PDFCABG can affect health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and it can take a long time to improve. The following question was raised: ‘How long does it take for the HRQoL of patients with a Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CBAG) to increase?’ The aim was to analyze the recent scientific production of HRQoL in cardiovascular patients with CABG. The PRISMA approach was used and we examined articles from Scopus, EBSCO and ProQuest that were published between 2014 - 2018. We used “health related quality of life”, restricted our search to “coronary artery bypass graft” and used “after” in the title, keywords and abstract connected by the Boolean operator “AND”. SF-36 was used to assess the HRQoL and it increased within six months after CABG. This was influenced by self-control, obesity, age, gender, emotions and personality. Improving the patient’s quality of life is key for the nurses to control so then the heart surgery patients become prosperous and thus reduce their morbidity and mortality.

Comparison of Blood Glucose Levels in Type 2 Diabetic Patients Who Consume Rice Steamed and Through the Magicom Method
Get PDFDifferences in cooking techniques can affect the glycemic level of rice. The aim of this study was to identify the differences in the blood glucose levels of people with DM after consuming rice cooked using either the steamed method or magicom. This study used a pre-experimental design with one group pre-post test with a repeated measure, which was then compared with the difference in fasting glucose levels with a 2-hour post prandial glucose level. The sample consisted of 24 type 2 DM patients. The independent variable was the cooking method and the dependent variable was the blood glucose level. The data collection was conducted using an observation and a questionnaire. The data analysis was done using a paired t test with a significance level of 0.05. The results of the independent sample t-test analysis obtained a value of t = -1.583 and p = 0.128, so there was found to be no significant difference between the fasting blood glucose levels and 2 hours post-prandial. The results of the descriptive comparison analysis showed that there were differences in the glucose levels between consuming rice cooked using either the steamed or magicom method of 18.304 gr / dl with p = 0.128. Rice cooked with the steamed method is more likely not to increase the blood glucose levels than rice cooked with mMagicom. DM patients should consume rice that has not been heated for a long time.
