Irrational use or misuse of antibiotics, particularly by outpatients, increases antibiotic resistance. A lack of public knowledge about ‘Responsible use of antibiotics’ and ‘How to obtain antibiotics’ is a major cause of this. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of an educational video about antibiotics and antibiotics use to increase outpatient's knowledge in two public hospitals in East Java, Indonesia. A quasi-experimental research setting was used with a one-group pretest-posttest design, carried out from November 2018 to January 2019. The study population consisted of outpatients, to whom antibiotics were prescribed, in two public hospitals in East Java, Indonesia. Participants were selected using a purposive sampling technique; 98 outpatients at MZ General Hospital in S regency and 96 at SG General Hospital in L regency were included. A questionnaire was used to measure the respondents’ knowledge and consisted of five domains, i.e. definition of infections and antibiotics, obtaining the antibiotics, directions of use, storage instructions, antibiotic resistance. The knowledge test score was the total score of the Guttman scale (a dichotomy of ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answers). To determine the significance of the difference in knowledge before and after providing the educational video and in the knowledge score between hospitals, the (paired) Student’s t-test was applied. The educational videos significantly improved outpatients' knowledge, which increased with 41% in MZ General Hospital and 42% in SG General Hospital. An educational video is a useful method to improve the knowledge of the outpatients regarding antibiotics.

The inappropriate use or misuse of antibiotics, particularly by outpatients, increases antibiotic resistance. A lack of public knowledge about “Responsible use of antibiotics” and “How to obtain antibiotics” is a major cause of this. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of an educational video about antibiotics and antibiotic use to increase outpatients’ knowledge shown in two public hospitals in East Java, Indonesia. A quasi-experimental research setting was used with a one-group pre-test—post-test design, carried out from November 2018 to January 2019. The study population consisted of outpatients to whom antibiotics were prescribed. Participants were selected using a purposive sampling technique; 98 outpatients at MZ General Hospital in the S regency and 96 at SG General Hospital in the L regency were included. A questionnaire was used to measure the respondents’ knowledge, and consisted of five domains, i.e., the definition of infections and antibiotics, obtaining the antibiotics, directions for use, storage instructions, and antibiotic resistance. The knowledge test score was the total score of the Guttman scale (a dichotomous “yes” or “no” answer). To determine the significance of the difference in knowledge before and after providing the educational video and in the knowledge score between hospitals, the (paired) Student’s t-test was applied. The educational videos significantly improved outpatients’ knowledge, which increased by 41% in MZ General Hospital, and by 42% in SG General Hospital. It was concluded that an educational video provides a useful method to improve the knowledge of the outpatients regarding antibiotics.

Abstract: Breast cancer is the most common malignancies among woman in Indonesian. One of breast cancer treatment is chemotherapy which resist cancer’s cells to grow. But chemotherapy also cause DNA damage that interfere lymphocyte proliferation. Depletion on lymphocyte counts will increased patient’s susceptibility to opportunistic infection. The aim of this research was to knowing the difference of lymphocyte counts because of chemotherapy on breast cancer patients in general hospital Ulin Banjarmasin. This research was an observational analytic with cross sectional approach. The sampling technique was non-probability sampling followed by consecutive sampling. Total samples were 61 patients that match with inclusion criteria. Paired T-test was used to analyze the hypothesis with the result of pvalue=0.000 (ρ<0.05), that means there’s a significant decrease in the number of lymphocyte counts after receiving chemotherapy in general hospital Ulin Banjarmasin, January 2014 to December 2015 period. Keywords: chemotherapy, lymphocyte, breast cancer

Introduction: The ageing process in older adults could cause a decreasing salivary secretion. Indicators of salivary secretion could be measured by observing an increasing salivary volume and pH, and a decreasing salivary viscosity. This study was aimed to observe the performance of 1% solution of baking soda on the salivary secretion of elderly xerostomia patients. Methods: The study used the quasi-experimental method with purposive sampling technique. The subjects were 24 older adults who were administered with 1% solution of baking soda. Results: The results showed that the averages volume, pH, and viscosity of the saliva before rinsing with 1% solution of baking soda were lower than after rinsing with the solution (p < 0.005). The average values of volume and pH of saliva before rinsing of 1% solution of baking soda were 0.15ml/min and 5.4, respectively, whilst after rinsing with the solution were 0.14ml/min and 7.42, respectively. The difference in saliva viscosity before and after rinsing with the solution showed that there were changes in the viscosity from frothy to watery. Conclusion: 1% solution of baking soda solution was able to increase the salivary secretion of elderly xerostomia patients, observed from an increasing salivary volume and pH, and a decreasing salivary viscosity after rinsing with 1% solution of baking soda.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic lung disease characterized by limited air flow in the respiratory tract that is not completely reversible and is progressive. Patients with COPD tend to experience inactivity that occurs due to reduced oxygen in the tissues, resulting in decreased fitness in helping to improve fitness given Pursed lips breathing treatment and limb training. This study was to determine the difference between pursed lips breathing with pursed lips breathing and exercise extremity on fitness in patients with COPD. Method is a quantitative research with quasi experimental type using the design of two groups pre-test and post-test, has a sample of 18 respondents divided into 2 groups, the control group (Pursed Lips Breathing) and the intervention group (Pursed Lips Breathing And Extremity Exercise) with purposive sampling technique that is adjusted to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Analysis of the data obtained using the independent sample t test showed a p-value of 0,000 which means that there are differences in Pursed Lips Breathing with Pursed Lips Breathing and Extremity Exercises Against Fitness in Patients with COPD. With a mean of 17.22 with SD 11.487 and p-value α <(0.002 <0.05) in the control group (Pursed Lips Breathing) and mean 65,000 with SD 11.990 and p-value α <(0,000 <0.05) in the group interventions (Pursed Lips Breathing and limb training). Result showed that the average difference in fitness before and after (Pursed Lips Breathing and Extremity Exercises) was greater than in the control group (Pursed Lips Breathing).

Diabetes mellitus is a disorder of the endocrine system characterized by increased levels of glucose in the blood. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of Buerger's Allen exercise on the value of the ankle brachial index (ABI) in patients with diabetes mellitus. The research design was a quasi-experimental pretest and posttest without a control. The study was conducted from March to May 2021 at Grandmed Lubuk Pakam Hospital with 48 respondents, with consecutive sampling technique. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The Buergers Allen exercise intervention was performed twice a day, for three weeks. The procedure is performed by lifting the lower extremities up at an angle of 45-90 degrees for 2-3 minutes, then the patient sits at the bedside with the legs hanging down, accompanied by flexion, extension, pronation and supination movements for 5-10 minutes, and the patient lies down. with both feet resting for 10 minutes. There was a significant effect between the mean ABI value before intervention 0.83 and after intervention 0.95, p=0.00. The difference in mean ABI p=0.000, p<0.05. The results of the study concluded that there was an effect of buerger allen exercise on the ABI value before and after the intervention where the ABI value was getting better. It is recommended for nurses to make Buergers Allen exercise one of the independent nursing interventions in providing nursing care to patients with diabetes mellitus.
