Background: A surgical procedure using general anaesthesia in laparotomy surgery results in reduced bowel sound. A large number of patients who experience a delay in returning bowel sound after laparotomy surgery become the reason to give proper intervention in order to increase bowel sound return time. One of the non-pharmacological interventions that can be used is chewing gum.Objective: The purpose of this study is to identify the difference of bowel sound return time between groups of intervention and control after being given chewing gum intervention among post-laparotomy surgery patients.Methods: This quasi-experimental study used post-test only control group design. Thirty respondents were selected by purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through observation by calculating the bowel sound return time among post laparotomy surgery patients in the intervention group (n=15) and control group (n=15), and were analyzed using the Mann Whitney test.  The intervention group was asked to chew the gum once for 30 minutes, and bowel sound was measured every 30 minutes for 120 minutes.Results: The results showed that bowel sound return time in the intervention group was 90 minutes and the control group was 150 minutes, and p-value was 0.005.Conclusion: There was a difference in the return time of bowel sound between the intervention and control groups. Therefore, the intervention of chewing gum could become one of the non- pharmacological interventions that can be considered in increasing the bowel sound return time among post-laparotomy surgery patients.

Indonesia is one of the five countries with the highest number of patients with tuberculosis (TB) worldwide, owing to patients being undetected and untreated. This study aims to analyze the effect of the Information, Motivation, and Behavior (IMB) Skill with “Trisna” approach on the management of drug compliance, nutritional status, and family support for patients with TB. This research is a quasi-experiment with pretest-posttest and control group design. Information about tuberculosis, medication adherence, nutritional status, family support and motivation are provided through training. At the end of training, each patient is given an alarm clock that can be used as a reminder to take medication. One form of family support is done by teaching the song “satu-satu” to remind patients to take medicine so as to minimize forgetting to take medicine. “TRISNA” is an attitude that accompanies TB cadres in providing health services to TB patioents. The socialization of the attitude of “TRISNA” was given by researchers to TB cadres before carrying out IMB training for TB patients. Compliance after intervention in the intervention group (mean, 10.80; SD, 0.98) was higher than in the control group (mean, 10.46; SD, 1.12) and effect size (ES) value of 4.16. Body mass index (BMI) in the intervention group (mean, 23.40; SD, 1.08) was higher than in the control group (mean, 21.43; SD, 0.75) and ES value of 1.95. Family support in the intervention group (mean, 106.28; SD, 22.00) was higher than in the control group (mean, 94.00; SD, 8.40) and ES value of 0.69.  In managing patients with TB, the provision of IMB Intervention Skill with “Trisna” approach could improve medication compliance, nutritional status, and family support.

Medication deprescribing is essential to prevent inappropriate medication use in multimorbid patients. However, experience of deprescribing in Danish Subacute Medical Outpatient Clinics (SMOCs) is limited. The objective of our pilot study was to evaluate the feasibility and sustainability of a collaborative deprescribing intervention by a pharmacist and a physician to multimorbid patients in a SMOC. A randomized controlled pilot study was conducted, with phone follow-up at 30 and 365+ days. A senior pharmacist performed a systematic deprescribing intervention using the Screening Tool of Older Persons’ potentially inappropriate Prescriptions (STOPP) criteria, the Danish deprescribing list, and patient interviews. A senior physician received the proposed recommendations and decided which should be implemented. The main outcome was the number of patients having ≥1 medication where deprescribing status was sustained 30 days after inclusion. Out of 76 eligible patients, 72 (95%) were included and 67 (93%) completed the study (57% male; mean age 73 years; mean number of 10 prescribed medications). Nineteen patients (56%) in the intervention group and four (12%) in the control group had ≥1 medication where deprescribing status was sustained 30 days after inclusion (p = 0.015). In total, 37 medications were deprescribed in the intervention group and five in the control group. At 365+ days after inclusion, 97% and 100% of the deprescribed medications were sustained in the intervention and control groups, respectively. The three most frequently deprescribed medication groups were analgesics, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal medications. In conclusion, a collaborative deprescribing intervention for multimorbid patients was feasible and resulted in sustainable deprescribing of medication in a SMOC.
