PENGARUH KOMPRES PANAS DAN DINGIN TERHADAP PENURUNAN NYERI KALA I FASE AKTIF PERSALINAN FISIOLOGIS IBU PRIMIPARA
No full textKehamilan, persalinan dan masa nifas adalah peristiwa fisiologis dalam
setiap perkembangan seorang wanita menjadi ibu. Peristiwa fisiologis ini
terkadang dapat menimbulkan trauma pada ibu karena nyeri yang dialaminya.
Beberapa ibu bahkan ada yang trauma untuk hamil dan melahirkan lagi karena
takut akan mengalami nyeri yang sama. Bagi ibu yang pernah melahirkan, nyeri
persalinan merupakan nyeri yang paling menyakitkan apalagi bagi ibu-ibu yang
baru pertama kali merasakannya.
Rasa nyeri pada persalinan dalam hal ini adalah nyeri kontraksi uterus
yang dapat mengakibatkan peningkatan aktifitas sistem saraf simpatis, perubahan
tekanan darah, denyut jantung, pernafasan dan apabila tidak segera diatasi maka
akan meningkatkan rasa khawatir, tegang, takut dan stress. Nyeri pada ibu
bersalin juga menyebabkan meningkatnya kadar katekolamin atau hormon stres
seperti epinefrin dan kortisol. Peningkatan kadar katekolamin atau hormon stres
dapat mengurangi kemampuan tubuh menahan rasa nyeri.
Penatalaksanaan dalam mengatasi nyeri persalinan berdasarkan penelitian di
sembilan rumah sakit di Amerika Serikat tahun 1996, sebanyak 4171 pasien, yang
persalinannya ditolong oleh perawat-bidan menggunakan beberapa tipe
iv
penatalaksanaan nyeri untuk mengatasi nyeri. Ibu bersalin tersebut sekitar 90%
diantaranya memilih metode non farmakologis untuk mengatasi nyeri.
Terapi kompres panas dan dingin merupakan salah satu metode non
farmakologis untuk mengatasi nyeri. Terapi ini perlu diberikan bagi semua ibu
melahirkan sebagai salah satu intervensi terapi nyeri di pelayanan kesehatan yakni
rumah sakit, puskesmas maupun klinik bersalin. Metode non farmakologis
merupakan metode yang paling sering digunakan untuk mengurangi nyeri.
Metode ini mempunyai resiko yang sangat rendah, bersifat murah, simpel, efektif,
tanpa efek yang merugikan dan dapat meningkatkan kepuasan selama persalinan.
Jenis penelitian ini yaitu Experimental dengan rancangan One Group
Pretest Postest. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di BPS Bunda dan BPS Rita Kota
Bukittinggi mulai tanggal 26 Maret s/d 26 Mei 2014. Populasi dalam penelitian
ini adalah ibu primipara inpartu kala 1 fase aktif. Penelitian ini menggunakan
tekhnik Non Probability Sampling dengan metode sampel Consecutive Sampling.
Jumlah sampel untuk masing-masing kelompok adalah 21 orang.
Analisa data menggunakan analisa univariat dan bivariat. Menggunakan Uji t
yakni Paired Samples t Test dan t Test Independent. Data diolah secara
komputerisasi menggunakan program SPSS dengan derajat kepercayaan 95 %.
Dari hasil penelitian dapat diketahui bahwa terdapat pengaruh pemberian
kompres panas dan dingin terhadap penurunan nyeri kala I fase aktif persalinan
fisiologis ibu primipara dengan nilai p 0,000. Sebagian besar ibu inpartu
mengalami rasa nyaman setelah diberikan kompres panas. Kompres panas yang
diberikan pada punggung bagian bawah ibu di area tempat kepala janin menekan
tulang belakang kepala akan mengurangi nyeri, panas akan meningkatkan
v
sirkulasi ke area tersebut sehingga memperbaiki anoksia jaringan yang disebabkan
oleh tekanan.
Secara keseluruhan berdasarkan apa yang telah peneliti observasi, semua
responden rata-rata mengatakan bahwa nyeri persalinan yang dirasakannya
berkurang. Walaupun respon yang diberikan berbeda-beda. Ini bisa jadi
disebabkan oleh faktor-faktor lain yang mempengaruhi nyeri seseorang yang
belum peneliti kendalikan, seperti suku bangsa, pekerjaan, kondisi psikologis
dan faktor lainnya.
Sejalan dengan kompres panas, kompres dingin juga terbukti efektif dalam
menurunkan nyeri persalinan. Pada saat penelitian, penulis menemukan satu
responden yang tidak mengalami penurunan nyeri. Pada saat ditanyakan,
responden mengatakan bahwa tidak merasakan penurunan dari nyeri
persalinannya. Ini merupakan salah satu kelemahan dari penelitian ini, dimana,
disamping alat ukur yang masih sangat objektif, variabel confounding yang belum
dikendalikan seperti suku bangsa, kondisi psikologis, dukungan keluarga, status
pekerjaan, dll, juga turut mempengaruhi hasil dari penelitian ini.
Dari hasil penelitian dapat diketahui bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan
derajat nyeri sebelum diberikan kompres panas dan sebelum diberikan kompres
dingin dengan nilai p 0,896. Sedangkan terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna antara
derajat nyeri setelah diberikan kompres panas dan setelah diberikan kompres
dingin dengan nilai p 0,001.
Tidak terdapat perbedaan derajat nyeri sebelum diberikan kompres panas
dan kompres dingin. Ini membuktikan bahwa faktor yang dikendalikan seperti
usia, paritas, usia kehamilan dan pembukaan serviks membantu dalam penelitian.
vi
Dimana secara garis besar keseluruhan responden sudah dihomogenkan.
Sementara terdapat perbedaan derajat nyeri setelah diberikan kompres panas dan
kompres dingin, ini membuktikan bahwa terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna
antara penurunan nyeri setelah diberikan kompres panas dan setelah diberikan
kompres dingin.
Dari hasil penelitian dapat diketahui bahwa rerata selisih nyeri sebelum
diberikan dan setelah diberikan kompres panas adalah 2,33±0,658, sedangkan
rerata selisih nyeri sebelum diberikan kompres dingin dan setelah diberikan
kompres dingin adalah 3,38±1,117. Hal ini membuktikan bahwa kompres dingin
lebih efektif menurunkan derajat nyeri dibandingkan kompres panas yang terlihat
dari nilai rerata penurunan nyerinya lebih tinggi pada kelompok kompres dingin
bila dibandingkan dengan kelompok kompres panas.
Berdasarkan hasil uji statistik juga dapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat
perbedaan selisih derajat nyeri sebelum dan setelah diberikan kompres panas dan
kompres dingin yang terlihat dari nilai p 0,001.
Hasil penelitian ini sejalan dengan penelitian yang dilakukan oleh
Khusniyah tahun 2011, dimana berdasarkan hasil uji statistik Mann Whitney Test
didapatkan nilai p 0,005 yang berarti ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara
kelompok kompres panas dan kelompok kompres dingin. Perbedaan ini didukung
oleh hasil uji Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test pada masing-masing kelompok
kompres, dimana pada kelompok kompres panas didapatkan nilai p 0,003 dan
pada kelompok kompres dingin didapatkan nilai p 0,001 yang artinya kelompok
kompres dingin lebih efektif dalam menurunkan nyeri daripada kelompok
kompres panas.
vii
Pada kompres dingin, pengalihan persepsi nyeri yang lebih dominan
adalah salah satu tipe transedensi yang telah tercapai sehingga responden merasa
lebih nyaman. Berdasarkan teori dan fakta, kompres dingin lebih efektif dalam
menurunkan nyeri daripada kompres panas. Dalam pemantauan kala I fase aktif
persalinan menggunakan partograf, pemberian kompres dingin juga tidak
berpengaruh terhadap kemajuan dan kemunduran persalinan. Pada saat fase aktif
dan dilakukan intervensi pengompresan, pembukaan serviks dan kontraksi uterus
tetap berjalan dengan normal. Oleh karena itu kompres dingin aman diberikan
pada ibu yang sedang dalam proses persalinan dan asuhan sayang ibu juga bisa
tercapai
Efektifitas Pemberian Seduhan Jahe dengan Jus Jeruk terhadap Mual Muntah pada Ibu Hamil Trimester I
No full textEmesis gravidarum merupakan keluhan umum yang disampaikan pada early pregnancy. Terjadinya kehamilan menimbulkan perunahan hormonal pada wanita karena terdapat hormon esterogen, progesteron, dan dikeluarkannya human chorionic gonadothropine plasenta. Gejala klinis emesis gravidarum adalah kepala pusing, terutama dipagi hari, disertai mual muntah sampai kehamilan berumur 4 bulan. Rasa mual pada awal kehamilan dapat di kurangi dengan menggunakan terapi komplementer antara lain dengan tanaman herbal atau tradisional yang bisa dilakukan dan mudah di dapatkan seperti daun peppermint, lemon, jahe, salak dll. Fungsi farmakologis salak salah satunya adalah antiemetik. Tujuan untuk mengetahui Efektifitas Pemberian Seduhan Jahe Dengan Jus Buah Jeruk Terhadap Keluhan Mual Muntah Ibu Hamil Trimester I. Jenis penelitian ini yaitu penelitian eksperimen atau percobaan (eksperimen research), yaitu suatu penelitian dengan melakukan kegiatan percobaan (experiment). Sampel berjumlah 12 orang. Instrumen penelitian yang digunakan berupa lembar observasi untuk mengamati penuunan mual muntah. Hasil dari penelitian ini teridentifikasi, Uji Statistic Paired T-test didapatkan nilai P = 0,000 (0,000<0,005). Saran untuk tempat penelitian, diharapkan bagi lahan penelitian dapat mengajarkan dan menganjurkan ada ibu hamil yang mengalami mual muntah untuk diberikan seduhan jahe dan jus buah jeruk untuk mengurangi mual muntah pada ibu hamil.

This species was described based on a syntype series of unknown geographic origin, but were later attributed a Mexican provenance (Stål 1860, 1865). In this later treatment of the species by its author, he also mentioned that Sallé provided the type material and that it was part of the collection in the Natural History Museum of Stockholm (Stål 1865). Indeed, this collection includes several specimens with this specific collection information, of which a large female is selected here as lectotype, and the remaining specimens retained as paralectotypes. Lectotype (Fig. 12e), by present designation: Mexico, Sallé (NRM). Paralectotypes, by present designation: (1) one specimen, Mexico, Oaxaca, Sallé (NRM); (2) four specimens, Mexico, Sallé (NRM).

The Effect of Giving Dates (Phoenix dactylifera) on Hemoglobin Levels in Anemic Adolescent Girls at Prima Nusantara Vocational School, Bukittinggi, Indonesia
No full textAnemia in adolescent girls is a health problem that often occurs in Indonesia. Dates (Phoenix dactylifera) is a fruit that is rich in iron and folate, which play an important role in the formation of hemoglobin. This study aims to determine the effect of giving dates on hemoglobin levels in anemic adolescent girls at Prima Nusantara Vocational School, Bukittinggi Indonesia. This research used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest with the control group design. A total of 30 adolescent girls who experienced anemia were randomly divided into two groups, namely the intervention group which was given 3 dates per day for 4 weeks and the control group which was given no dates. Hemoglobin levels were measured before and after the intervention. The results showed that there was a significant increase in hemoglobin levels in the intervention group compared to the control group (p < 0.05). Giving dates can increase hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls who suffer from anemia
Citrifelins A and B, Citrinin Adducts with a Tetracyclic Framework from Cocultures of Marine-Derived Isolates of Penicillium citrinum and Beauveria felina
No full textCitrifelins A (1) and B (2), two citrinin adducts possessing a unique tetracyclic framework, were characterized from a coculture of marine-derived fungal isolates of Penicillium citrinum and Beauveria felina. Neither fungus produced these compounds when cultured alone under the same conditions. The structures of these adducts were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis, and the absolute configurations were assigned on the basis of TDDFT-ECD calculations. A hypothesis that adducts 1 and 2 might be derived from a citrinin derivative through a non-pericyclic Michael reaction is proposed. Compounds 1, 2, and 5 showed inhibitory activities against several human and aquatic pathogens.Citrifelins A (1) and B (2), two citrinin adducts possessing a unique tetracyclic framework, were characterized from a coculture of marine-derived fungal isolates of Penicillium citrinum and Beauveria felina.

Incidencia de Leucemia Viral Felina en los gatos domésticos (Felis Silvestre Catus), atendidos en la Clínica Veterinaria Israel de la ciudad de Guayaquil.
No full textThe objective of this research was to determine the incidence of Feline Viral Leukemia in domestic cats (Felis Silvestre Catus) treated at the Israel Veterinary Clinic, in the city of Guayaquil. This was a quantitative and descriptive study, using immunochromatography as a diagnostic technique, a test that allows rapid detection of the virus. This viral disease directly affects the feline's immune system, facilitating the appearance of various secondary conditions such as lymphomas, fibrosarcomas, neuroblastomas, regenerative or hemolytic anemia, recurrent infections, gingivitis, stomatitis, weight loss and general weakness. For the statistical analysis, the nonparametric Pearson's Chi-square method was applied, with the support of Microsoft Excel. The sample consisted of 40 cats, of which 5 positive cases (12.5%) and 35 negative cases (87.5%) of the (100%) were identified, indicating a low incidence of the disease in the feline population studied. No statistically significant differences were found in relation to age, breed or sex, although male and mixed breed cats showed a slightly higher prevalence. Although Feline Viral Leukemia does not represent a direct risk to human health, it does constitute a public health problem due to the emotional and economic impact it represents for the owners, as well as to the welfare of the animals. The author recommends reinforcing prevention and awareness campaigns about the disease, encouraging vaccination, continuous education for guardians and the implementation of periodic diagnostic tests for more effective control of the disease.

Se trató de un estudio cuantitativo y descriptivo, utilizando como técnica diagnóstica la inmunocromatografía, prueba que permite la detección rápida del virus. Esta enfermedad viral afecta directamente el sistema inmunológico del felino, facilitando la aparición de diversas afecciones secundarias como linfomas, fibrosarcomas, neuroblastomas, anemia regenerativa o hemolítica, infecciones recurrentes, gingivitis, estomatitis, pérdida de peso y debilidad general. Para el análisis estadístico se aplicó el método no paramétrico Chi Cuadrado de Pearson, con el apoyo de Microsoft Excel. La muestra estuvo conformada por 40 gatos, de los cuales se identificaron 5 casos positivos (12,5%) y 35 negativos (87,5%) del (100 %) lo que indica una baja incidencia de la enfermedad en la población felina estudiada. No se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en relación con la edad, raza o sexo, aunque los gatos machos y de raza mestiza mostraron una ligera mayor prevalencia. Si bien la Leucemia Viral Felina no representa un riesgo directo para la salud humana, sí constituye un problema de salud pública debido al impacto emocional y económico que representa para los propietarios, así como al bienestar de los animales. La autora recomienda reforzar las campañas de prevención y concienciación sobre la enfermedad, fomentar la vacunación, la educación continua a los tutores y la implementación de pruebas diagnósticas periódicas para un control más eficaz de la enfermedad.La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo determinar la incidencia de la Leucemia Viral Felina en gatos domésticos (Felis Silvestre Catus) atendidos en la Clínica Veterinaria Israel, en la ciudad de Guayaquil.

Diabetes mellitus felina : revisão de literatura e descrição de 3 casos clínicos
No full textA presente dissertação, realizou-se no âmbito da conclusão do Mestrado Integrado em Medicina Veterinária da Universidade Lusofona e teve como objetivo o desenvolvimento do tema Diabetes Mellitus Felina. Inclui uma revisão bibliográfica sobre o tema e apresentação e discussão de 3 casos clínicos que foram acompanhados durante o estágio curricular realizado no Centro Veterinário de Sintra. A Diabetes mellitus é uma das doenças endócrinas mais comuns em gatos. Na maioria dos casos ocorre devido à insulinorresistência e disfunção das células β, semelhante à diabetes mellitus tipo 2 em humanos. O diagnóstico é realizado pela mensuração da frutosamina, pela presença de hiperglicemia e glicosúria, juntamente com sinais clínicos compatíveis com a doença. É importante excluir outras possíveis causas que possam levar à hiperglicemia. O tratamento nos três casos apresentados foi baseado na administração de insulina protamina-zinco (ProZinc®) juntamente com a modificação da dieta. O principal desafio nos casos apresentados, foi a cooperação dos proprietários em seguir o plano de tratamento recomendado. Para que haja um maneio bem-sucedido é importante que a presença de sinais clínicos seja mínima ou inexistente e que haja uma resposta favorável ao tratamento. Palavra-passe: diabetes mellitus, gato, insulinoterapia, remissãoThe present dissertation was carried in order to complete an Integrated master’s degree in Veterinary Medicine at the Lusófona University and aimed to develop the theme Feline Diabetes Mellitus. It includes a bibliographic review on the subject and presentation and discussion of 3 clinical cases that were observed by the author during the internship period at the Veterinary Center of Sintra. Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common endocrine diseases in cats. In most cases it occurs due to insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction, similar to type 2 diabetes mellitus in humans. The diagnosis is made by measuring fructosamine, by the presence of hyperglycemia and glycosuria, along with clinical signs compatible with the disease. It is important to exclude other possible causes that could lead to hyperglycemia. The treatment in the three cases presented was based on the administration of protamine zinc insulin (ProZinc®) along with diet modification. The main challenge in the presented cases was the owners' cooperation in following the recommended treatment plan. For a successful management, it is important that the presence of clinical signs is minimal or non-existent and that there is a favorable response to treatment.
