Mild persistent bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway that cause the low oxygen saturation value (91-95%). Administering oxygen therapy, setting the position of the semi fowler and fowler can reduce the risk of a decreased chest configuration. This research aims to assess the difference of effectiveness of administering oxygen at semi fowler with fowler position to the saturation changes in mild persistent bronchial asthma patients in Ratu Zalecha Martapura Hospital. This research method is quasy Experiment. The population research are all patients who experience mild persistent bronchial asthma attack, the sample of this research are 20 respondents with purposive sampling technique and analyzed with independent T test. The results is at semi fowler position the average of oxygen saturation before the treatment is 93.10%, after administering oxygen therapy with semi fowler position the average saturation is 98.00%. At the fowler position the average of oxygen saturation before the treatment is 92.60%, after administering oxygen therapy with fowler position the average saturation is 98.00%. The independent T-test result showed no difference of effectiveness of administering oxygen at semi fowler with fowler position to the saturation changes in mild persistent bronchial asthma patients,so teh patients can be given both positions.

Introduction: Bronchial asthma is a disease that occurs frequently in Indonesia and is reversible and can cause death. The problem that is felt is bouts of shortness of breath when a recurrence occurs. Stress is one of the causes of recurrence. So a positive coping mechanism is needed to prevent relapse. This study aims to determine whether there is a relationship between the coping mechanisms used and the frequency of recurrence in bronchial asthma patients at M. Noer Pamekasan Hospital, 2018. Methods: This research design uses Non-Experimental Analytic Correlation method with a sample of 39 people and uses Probability Simple Random Sampling technique. The research data were taken using a questionnaire. After the tabulation, the data were analyzed using the Rank Spearman test with a significance level of 0.05. Results: The results showed that almost half (45.7% or 16 people) had maladaptive coping mechanisms and relapses> 5X / month, and a small proportion (11.4% or 4 people) had adaptive coping mechanisms and relapsed 1-4X / month. From the results of statistical testing, it was found that there was a correlation between coping mechanisms and the frequency of recurrence with a correlation coefficient of 0.430 with a significance level of 0.010. Conclusion: We know that the coping mechanism is closely related to the occurrence of stress and anxiety in a person. Meanwhile, anxiety is one of the causes of recurrence in bronchial asthma patients. So in providing nursing care, you should not forget about health education about coping mechanisms so that patients can manage the stress experienced so that recurrence of bronchial asthma can be avoided.

The level of asthma control is the extent to which the characteristics of asthma can be observed in patients with asthma and have been reduced or disappear with treatment. The Global Initiative for Asthma guidelines recommends leukotriene antagonists as the second-line add-on treatment. Leukotriene antagonists play a role in controlling the recurrence of asthma symptoms, so a well-controlled asthma patient will be achieved.  This study conducted to find out the correlations between the use of leukotriene antagonists with the level of asthma control in patients with bronchial asthma at Harum Melati Clinic of Pringsewu in August 2018-August 2019. Methodology: This research using an analytic method with a retrospective approach. The population of this research was all of the medical records of patients with bronchial asthma at Harum Melati Clinic of Pringsewu on the period of August 2018-August 2019, amounting to 449, sampling using the total sampling technique with the total sample of 232 medical records that meet the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria. Data were analyzed by the spearman test.  133 (57.3%) subjects had well-controlled asthma, 99 (42.7%) subjects having partly- controlled asthma, and there are no asthma patients have uncontrolled asthma (0%). And also got 125 (53.9%) subjects using leukotriene antagonists and 107 (46.1%) subjects did not use leukotriene antagonists. There is a correlation between the use of leukotriene antagonists with the level of asthma control in patients with bronchial asthma at Harum Melati Clinic of Pringsewu in August 2018-August 2019.

 Aim. The study of the prevalence and clinical peculiarities of Mycoplasmosis and Chlamydiosis in patients with different pathogenic forms of bronchial asthma (BA) taking into account ethnicity of a patient. Subjects and Methods. The research covered 239 subjects – both the Europeoids and the Mongoloids in the city of Krasnoyarsk and the town of Kyzyl, all of them being BA patients of different stages, including acute stage and practically healthy. We had determined antigens Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Mycoplasma hominis, Chlamydophila pneumoniae, Chlamydophila psittaci and Chlamydia trachomatis in smears of mucosa of pharynx and antibodies to these antigens in peripheral blood serum. Results.  We found high frequency of Mycoplasmosis and Chlamydiosis in the inhabitants of Eastern Siberia, BA patients with different pathogenic forms as compared to control group. We had determined ethnic peculiarities of specific immune response: IgM to М. pneumoniae was revealed in the Europoids more frequently than in the Mongoloids, but IgM to С. pneumoniae and to C. trachomatis, C. trachomatis antigens had been revealed more often in the Mongoloids than in the Europoids. We accepted as clinical equivalents of Mycoplasmosis and Chlamydiosis diagnostics the following signs: temperature around 37C (subfebrile temperature), non-intensive but stable coughing with scanty mucous and muco-purulent sputum, dyspnea of mixed character. Conclusions. Mycoplasma and Chlamydia are meaningful etiologic factors of bronchial asthma. We have found the peculiarities of immune response depending on ethnicity of a patient (ethnic belonging). Clinical markers of Mycoplasmosis and Chlamydiosis should be taken into account in bronchial asthma in order to provide diagnostics timely as well as eradication of infection agents. Because of insufficient knowledge of problem of bronchial asthma related to contamination with Мycoplasma and Chlamydia we put the goal to study the frequency of Mycoplasmosis and Chlamydiosis occurrence in bronchial asthma patients and determine the characteristics clinical course of diseases. We defined antigens Мycoplasma pneumoniae, Мycoplasma hominis, Chlamydophila pneumoniaе, Chlamydophila psittaci, Chlamydia trachomatis in smears of oropharynx mucosa and antibodies to them in blood serum.
