subject: Acupressure, Elderly, Digestive Disorders, Pain, Gastrointestinal
description: Gastrointestinal disorders are common complaints among older adults due to progressive functional degeneration. With the increasing global elderly population, safe and non-pharmacological independent nursing interventions are needed to manage digestive pain. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of acupressure intervention in reducing pain levels among elderly individuals with gastrointestinal disorders at the UPTD Elderly Social Service Center in Binjai. This quantitative study employed a quasiexperimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest approach involving 25 respondents. The intervention was administered through manual pressure on meridian points ST36, ST25, LI4, and CV2. The results showed that most respondents suffered from GERD (36%) and gastritis (32%). Prior to the intervention, 68% of respondents experienced moderate pain; after the intervention, the proportion of moderate pain decreased to 40%, while mild pain increased to 60%. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test revealed a p-value of 0.008 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant effect of acupressure on reducing gastrointestinal pain intensity among the elderly. Acupressure therapy is therefore recommended as a holistic nursing care approach to improve the quality of life of older adults

description: Hypertension is a predominant health issue in the geriatric population, contributing significantly to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and frailty. Major challenges in managing hypertension in the elderly include polypharmacy, declining organ function, and medication adherence. Apium graveolens (celery) contains apigenin and 3-n-butylphthalide, which are known to possess vasodilatory effects. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Apium graveolens administration as a complementary therapy for the prevention and control of stage I hypertension among the elderly in a rural community setting. Methods:This study employed a Quasi-Experimental design with a Pre-test and Post-test Control Group approach, conducted in Bagun Rejo Village from January to March 2025. The subjects comprised 80 elderly individuals (aged 60 years) with grade I hypertension, selected via purposive sampling. Subjects were divided into two groups: the Intervention Group (n=40), which received a standardized dose of Apium graveolens extract for 8 weeks, and the Control Group (n=40), which received standard lifestyle education. The primary parameters measured were changes in Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) and Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP). Data analysis was performed using the Paired t-test and Independent t-test with a 95% confidence level (=0.05).Results: Baseline characteristics between the two groups were homogeneous. After 8 weeks of intervention, the Intervention Group demonstrated a significant reduction in SBP from a mean of 152.4 mmHg to 138.2 mmHg (p < 0.001) and a reduction in DBP from 94.5 mmHg to 86.1 mmHg ($p < 0.05$). Conversely, the Control Group showed no statistically significant changes. Furthermore, no significant gastrointestinal side effects or electrolyte disturbances were observed in the group consuming Apium graveolens, indicating a favorable safety profile for the elderly. Conclusion:The administration of Apium graveolens proved effective in redu…

description: Breast cancer and its treatments impose a complex symptom burden that negatively affects patients’ quality of life. Self-management support (SMS) is a patient empowerment strategy aimed at enhancing independence in nursing care. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of SMS on the quality of life of breast cancer patients at Haji General Hospital Medan. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pre–post test control group approach. The sample consisted of 60 respondents (30 in the intervention group and 30 in the control group), selected using purposive sampling. The intervention group received structured education and self-monitoring guidance for 8 weeks. The research instrument used was the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire. Data were analyzed using Paired T-test and Independent T-test. Results: There was a significant increase in the mean quality of life score in the intervention group, from 52.3 to 75.6 (p < 0.001), while the control group showed no significant change (p = 0.125). Intergroup comparison after the intervention revealed a statistically significant difference (p = 0.000). The emotional functioning and pain management domains showed the most substantial improvements. Conclusion: Self-management support is effective in improving the quality of life of breast cancer patients. This intervention is recommended to be integrated into standard oncology nursing care to promote patient independence in managing treatment-related side effects.
