Anxiety Levels

Anxiety neurosis is the most common mental disorder in society. Progressive muscle relaxation is an independent nursing intervention that can be chosen to reduce anxiety in schizophrenia patients. This case study aims to prove that progressive muscle relaxation can help reduce anxiety levels in schizophrenic patients. The study design is descriptive in the form of a case study with a nursing process approach, applying progressive muscle relaxation techniques to schizophrenic patients who experience problems with anxiety levels. The sample was two adult schizophrenic patients who experienced anxiety in Eredah Complex Mental Health Hospital. The patient's anxiety was measured by the Zung-Self Anxiety Rating Scale. The progressive muscle relaxation procedure is performed 2 times over two days with a duration of 20-30 minutes each session. Hemodynamic measurements and anxiety levels were performed pre-post progressive muscle relaxation. The results of the case study showed that progressive muscle relaxation interventions affected reducing patient anxiety levels. The mean score of the patient's anxiety decreased by 30.34% after being given progressive muscle relaxation. Progressive muscle relaxation is effectively applied to schizophrenic patients with anxiety disorders in nursing service settings.

The cause of AKI at delivery is the presence of complicating factors during labor. To save mather and baby during childbirth due to labor complicating factors, one of them is by performing section caesarea, the most frequent impact felt by klien post section caesarea is pain. Pain has a very complex impact on the care of post partum mothers, includin Activity of Daily Living (ADL) is impaired. Non pharmacological management to reduce pain can be a progressive muscle relaxation technique. This study aims to determine the effect of progressive muscle relaxation techniques on pain at clients of post sectio caesarea in RSUD Kota Bandung. This study is a pre experimental study with one group pre test post test design approach. The number of sample in this study is 20 persons selected in purposive sampling technique. The applied instrument is Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) and work procedure of progressive muscle relaxation. The data is then analyzed by wilcoxon test. The study reveals that more than half of clients post operative sectio caesarea were on pain scale 6 before progressive muscle relaxation and almost half had pain scale 3 and 4 after progressive muscle relaxation. And acquired p value = 0.000, so it was concluded that there was influence of progressive muscle relaxation to pain scale to the clients of  sectio caesarea.  The results of this study it’s expected that progressive muscle relaxation technique can be used as reference for making SOP in the room and can be used as a non pharmacological intervention in pain management

AbstractGastritis is inflammation of the gastric mucosa which can last for six months or more and can cause recurrence. Gastritis is characterized by signs and symptoms, namely pain in the gut or epigacentrum, vomiting, nausea and vomiting. Pain is a personal experience that is described by the individual himself with several factors such as psychological that can control the pain. Pain can be treated with pharmacological and non-pharmacological techniques. An example of a non-pharmacological technique is the progressive muscle relaxation technique. Progressive muscle relaxation is a technique for reducing pain by moving the body so that it relaxes tight muscles. The purpose of this scientific paper is to describe the effect of progressive muscle relaxation techniques to reduce pain in gastritis patients. The method used in this scientific paper is Literature review by searching for journals with the title the effect of progressive muscle relaxation techniques to reduce pain in gastritis patients. The results obtained after progressive muscle relaxation measures are reduced or lost pain in gastritis patients. The conclusion of this scientific paper is that progressive muscle relaxation techniques can reduce pain in gastritis patients. Suggestions for nurses are expected to be able to apply complementary therapy to gastritis patients who experience pain with progressive muscle relaxation techniques.Keywords:Gastritis, Pain, Progressive Muscle Relaxation Techniques AbstrakGastritis adalah mukosa lambung mengalami peradangan yang dapat berangsung lama selama enam bulan atau lebih dan dapat menimbulkan kekambuhan.

Chapter 6 explores the activity component of the BEAST model, and highlights several techniques for activities that can be used to lessen depression. This includes activity scheduling, with a particular focus on pleasant activities, identifying patterns associated with low moods, making the effort to change, and other action strategies (recovering lost activities, risk taking, graded tasks, social skills training) as well as relaxation techniques (progressive muscle relaxation (PMR), meditation, and patterned breathing).

ABTSRACT Introduction: Physical exercise as anticipate of hypertension along with nutrition and medicines. One of physical exercise that can be applicated here is relaxation techniques which is showed positive impact in decreased blood pressure. Objective: Determine the difference between PMR intervention with SSBM intervention to reduce blood pressure for grade I hypertension patients whose consumed anti-hypertension medicine in badung regency. Methods: Experimental method Pre and post-test control group design and used 24 subjects, divided in to 2 groups, in which the experimental group I (n=12) received progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) while the treatment group 2 (n=12) received slow stroke back massage (SSBM). Intervention is given 3 times a week for 4 weeks. This study was using simple random sampling. Blood pressure was measured by sphygmomanometer and stethoscope. Result: Independent Sample T-test showed there was significant difference between Group 1 and Group 2 which (p<0.05) for systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

AbstractPurpose. Relaxing in the athlete’s training process is underutilized. Relaxation techniques, however, should be taught from the very beginning of the footballer’s training career. The main aim of this study was to present the effect of progressive muscle relaxation on pressure pain threshold levels and the effectiveness of the footballer’s training. Methods. A sample of 32 football players participated in the therapeutic program consisting of 8 PMR sessions. Before and after applying a pressure therapy, the pain threshold in the lumbar region was measured by a dolorimeter and the Cooper test was carried out to determine the footballers’ level of endurance. Results. PMR training did not increase significantly the pain threshold level in the experimental group (p > 0.05), but it increased significantly the distance covered in the Cooper test (p = 0.04). Analysis of the Spearman rank correlation was also carried out (p = 0.81). Conclusions. PMR does not lower pain perception threshold. PMR therapy increases the distance measured by the Cooper test. In order to determine the role of PMR in injury prevention, further research is necessary.
