Various complaints can arise during the postpartum period, both physical and psychological complaints. Postpartum hormonal changes and adaptation to a new role as a mother often cause mothers to experience changes in mood, and become easily sad and sensitive. These symptoms are usually called postpartum blues. The still high rate of postpartum blues in the world, namely 70-80%, and the rate of postpartum blues in Indonesia, namely 60-70%, shows that the mental health problems of postpartum mothers require special attention. The results of a preliminary study at the Mrican Community Health Center, Kediri City, showed that 70% of 52 postpartum mothers (36 respondents) experienced anxiety during the postpartum period. In Indonesia, postpartum blues is still considered normal and does not require special treatment, even though this problem has a high impact on the welfare of postpartum mothers and their babies.
Objectives: The aim of this research is to determine the effectiveness of the Nareswari method (Breathing, Relaxation, and Coloring) in reducing the anxiety level of postpartum mothers as an effort to prevent cases of postpartum blues. The Nareswari method is a combination of hypnobreastfeeding techniques and coloring therapy (coloring).
Methods: This type of research is observational analytical experimental research with a case-control approach with two group pretest and post-test. The independent variables are hypnobreastfeeding and coloring hypnosis. The dependent variable is the level of anxiety of postpartum mothers and the number of samples in this study was 50 respondents.
Results: The results of statistical tests show a significant difference between the level of anxiety in the treatment group and the control group (p-value = 0.0000 < α value 0.05).
Conclusions: The Nareswari method is effective in reducing anxiety levels in postpartum mothers. There was a significant reduction in anxiety levels after postpartum mothers routinely used this method for one month.

Relathionship RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FULFILLMENT OF PRE-OPERATIVE FLUID NEEDS AND THE INCIDENCE OF NAUSEA AND VOMITING IN PATIENTS POST GENERAL ANESTHESIA AT DR SAIFUL ANWAR HOSPITAL, EAST JAVA PROVINCE

2024-10-26T02:30:38+00:00

Introduction: Postoperative nausea and vomiting, known as Postoperative Nausea Vomiting (PONV), is one of the problems often experienced by post-operative patients. Most anesthetic drugs have a vasodilation effect which causes hypotension and hypoperfusion, thereby stimulating the CTZ to produce nausea and vomiting reactions. Hypotension will be more dangerous if the body's fluid needs are not met at the time of surgery. Hypotension is one of the triggers that can cause nausea and vomiting. Giving fluids to preoperative patients is generally done to prevent intraoperative hypotension.

Methods: The design of this research is analytical observational with a cross sectional approach, using a proportional sampling technique with a sample of 80 respondents. This research instrument uses the RINVR observation sheet and fluid calculations based on the fresh holiday formula. Data analysis using the Fisher Test with SPSS IBM Version 23.

Results: The results showed that the majority of respondents, namely 72 (90%) channeled preoperative fluid requirements less than required, 44 respondents (55%) experienced mild nausea and vomiting, 61.1% Respondents experienced mild nausea and vomiting while meeting inadequate preoperative fluid requirements. The results of the Fisher Test statistical test obtained a value of p = 0.001, which can be concluded that there is a significant relationship between preoperative fluid requirements and the incidence of nausea and vomiting in patients after general anesthesia at RSUD dr. Saiful Anwar, East Java Province.

Conclusions: In preoperative patients, a lot of fluid is lost. Fluid lost during fasting is replaced by calculating fluid requirements per day (per hour), calculating the fasting deficit (length of fasting) or dehydration (degree of dehydration). Providing sufficient fluids can reduce the risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting under general anesthesia.
