Standardized Nursing Language (SNL) Application in Diverse Nursing Practice and Documentation Settings

Erna Dwi Wahyuni — 2023-12-20

Background: Effective communication in healthcare is crucial, and Standardized Nursing Language (SNL) has emerged as a powerful tool to enhance nursing practice and documentation. However, disparities in SNL awareness and knowledge pose challenges to its effective implementation. This systematic review aims to synthesize research on SNL application in nursing practice across diverse settings, utilizing a comprehensive database search and predefined criteria for study selection.

Methods: Comprehensive searches were conducted across databases like PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest, and Web of Science. This systematic review adhered to the updated guidelines provided by PRISMA 2020. Three independent reviewers assessed study eligibility based on predefined criteria, resolving discrepancies through discussion. A narrative synthesis approach categorized and thematically analyzed the data, focusing on SNL's impact in diverse healthcare settings. Data was retrieved after the studies were subjected to quality assessment and risk of biases.

Results: The review included twelve studies spanning various healthcare systems and regions. While SNL demonstrated potential benefits, disparities in awareness, knowledge, and utilization were evident among participants. Challenges such as complex documentation processes and feasibility concerns were raised.

Conclusion: SNL plays a pivotal role in enhancing nursing practice, improving documentation, and facilitating effective communication. Addressing education gaps and providing ongoing training opportunities are essential to overcome implementation challenges. Collaboration among healthcare institutions, educators, and regulatory bodies is crucial to fully leveraging SNL's benefits for better patient care and healthcare outcomes.

Cadre Knowledge And Self-Efficacy Following Care For Child Development Post Intervention: A Four-Year Prospective Follow-Up Study

Amara Tri Kurniasih — 2023-12-30

Background: Stunting is a significant malnutrition problem in Indonesia, and community health cadres play a vital role in addressing it through programs like Care for Child Development (CCD) training. This study aimed to delineate the knowledge and self-efficacy of cadres who participated in CCD training in Yogyakarta in 2018, comparing their status in 2022.

Methods: In October 2022, a quantitative cross-sectional approach was utilized to examine the knowledge and self-efficacy of 56 cadres who had undergone CCD training in 2018, organized by the same authors and documented in a prior publication, with participants selected through total sampling. Three instruments were utilized, including a participant demographic survey, the CKCDI, and the GSES. The paired t-test was employed to analyzed the data.

Results: The study's results reveal a significant difference (p=0.002) in the mean knowledge scores of cadres following their participation in the Care For Child Development (CCD) training program in 2018 and four years later. The mean score was 13.39 in 2018, decreased to 11.9 in 2022. Likewise, the self-efficacy component among cadres exhibited a reduction, with mean scores of 30.93 in 2018 and 29.4 in 2022. However, it is important to note that there is no statistically significant difference in self-efficacy (p=0.106). The decline in average knowledge scores over the four-year period may be attributed to potential knowledge decay.

Conclusion: This study underscores the significance of sustained training and support for community health workers, emphasizing the need for flexible approaches to maintain their knowledge and self-efficacy over time.

Effect Light-Intensity on Sleep Quality in Elderly

Adela Henri Putri — 2023-12-30

Background: Bedroom lighting is accused of being one of the factors causing changes in the quality of sleep in the elderly. Modifying the power of room lighting is an alternative to improving the sleep quality of the elderly. The aim of the study is to determine the effect of lighting intensity on the sleep quality of elderly.

Methods: A quantitative study with a quasi-experimental control group design. Amount of sample is 40 responden and choosen used random sampling. Quality of sleep measure by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and light-intensity measure used a luxmeter. the intervention group received lights with an intensity of 5, 10, 15, 20 watts, where the respondents were treated every day for 4 days with these light intensities. The Shapiro-Wilk test was used to test the normality of the data, while paired T test used to analyze the conditions before and after in the control and treatment groups. Independent sample t-test used to compare the sleep quality of the control and treatment groups.

Results: There was no difference in sleep quality in the control group (0.15) between before and after the study, but there was a difference in sleep quality in the intervention group (0.00). There were differences in sleep quality between the control and treatment groups after the intervention was given (0.01).

Conclusion: The intensity of the light has an effect on the sleep quality of the elderly, where the lower the intensity of the light, the better the quality of sleep. Elderly should sleep on level lighting intensity less than 5 watt.

Cholesterol, Blood Glucose and Hemoglobin Profiles of Urban Adolescents

Yuyun Setyorini — 2023-12-30

Background: Prevention of heart and cardiovascular disease must be carried out as early as possible with routine biochemical examinations. Aim of this study is to describe the profile of Cholesterol, Blood Glucose and Hemogobin in urban adolescents.

Methods: This research method uses a descriptive design with a cross sectional approach. The sample population in this study was 63 nursing students at the Surakarta Health Polytechnic. The study was conducted in August 2023 and the sample was selected randomly. Data were analyzed descriptively.

Results: The average cholesterol level was 197mg/dl, the average blood sugar level was 91.1 mg/dl and the average hemoglobin was 13.2 g/dl.

Conclusion: The incidence of hypercholesterolemia was high in respondents. This condition is possible due to insufficient consumption of vegetables and lack of physical activity resulting in high cholesterol levels. These specific findings can help create policies to develop more strategic evidence-based interventions, through grouping risk factors in controlling the risk of non-communicable diseases in adolescents.

Mahmud Gunggung Saputro — 2023-12-30

Background: Spinal injuries are paralysis-causing injuries caused by trauma or disease processes. Members of the Youth Red Cross still have limited knowledge and abilities when it comes to evacuating signs of spinal cord injury. When it comes to performing first aid, knowledge and abilities are crucial. The role-playing approach is one of the methods used to improve knowledge and abilities. The research aimed to find out the effectiveness of role plays in developing knowledge and evacuation skills of spinal cord injury signs in SMAN 1 Ngemplak Youth Red Cross members.

Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a control group and a pretest-posttest design. Purposive sampling was employed using a sample of 40 respondents who were divided into two groups: 20 respondents in the control group and 20 respondents in the intervention group. A questionnaire and an observation sheet were utilized as part of the research instrument. On the knowledge variable, the independent t-test was utilized, and on the skill variable, the Mann-Whitney test was used.

Results: Between the control and intervention groups, there were substantial differences in knowledge and skill factors. This is demonstrated by a significance value of 0.01 in the knowledge variable and a significance value of 0.023 in the skills variable.

Conclusion: For Youth Red Cross SMAN 1 members, role play was effective in developing knowledge and skills of the evacuation of spinal cord injury indicators.
