Abstract

Background: Every single person including people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) have five basic needs; one of which is a physiological sexual need. Unfortunately, PLWHA face many difficulties in fulfilling their sexual needs due to the stigma and fear of infecting their partner.Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experience of PLWHA and partner’s responses toward the fulfillment of sexual needs.Methods: This study was a qualitative descriptive phenomenological research, which collected data through in-depth interviews from fourteen PLWHA in Paramacitta Spirit Foundation, Denpasar. The participants were recruited through snowball sampling, informed and gave consent for their voluntary participation. The data were analyzed using Colaizzi’s phenomenological method.Results: The study revealed five themes describing the sexual experiences of PLWHA, including: (1) the fulfillment of sexual need of PLWHA, (2) the roles of partner for PLWHA, (3) various perceived stimuli which could increase the sexual desire, (4) the perceived factors which could incapacitate the ability and quality of sexual desire, and (5) the efforts to increase sexual capability and quality.  Conclusion: Sex was an important need for PLWHA to meet. Despite having a virus, after undergoing anti-retroviral (ARV) treatment, PLWHA felt healthier, and thus they could meet their sexual need like a normal person in general.

Abstract

Background: Educational interventions about stroke have been carried out by the health workers, one of which is by the nurse. However, the majority of the interventions focus more on the stroke patients than the stroke caregivers. Meanwhile, post-stroke patient care education interventions are urgently needed by the caregivers. Therefore, the author intends to review current literature about post-stroke patient care education interventions on stroke caregivers. Objective: This literature review aims to identify the effectiveness, methods, and impacts of daily care educational interventions for post-stroke patients on stroke caregivers. Methods: The method utilized was by analyzing online databases about the related topics from reputable sources.  Seven articles that met the inclusions criteria considering Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) and Quasi-experimental design, time of publication, and English full text were obtained, and the results were presented. Result: Educational intervention could be carried out by several methods, including direct education at the patient's bedside, lectures followed by questions and answers, and booklets, home visits or telephone follow-up. Educational interventions could improve caregiver knowledge and skills in providing daily care for post-stroke patients, reduce burdens, reduce anxiety and improve the caregiver's quality of life. Educational interventions also positively impacted post-stroke patients, including improving the quality of life, functional abilities and the ability to do daily activities (ADL), reducing cognitive impairment, anxiety, and depression.Conclusion: Daily care education interventions for post-stroke patients can reduce the burden on the caregiver, either physical, psychological or social burdens.

Abstract

Background: The quality of life of patients with primary brain tumor in Indonesia is poorly understood. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the health‐related quality of life of patients admitted to the Neurosurgery Department of Dr. Hasan Sadikin Hospital, Bandung, Indonesia, up to 3 months after discharge. Methods: Baseline data were collected from patients aged ≥18 years who were admitted to the hospital between October 9, 2015, and February 17, 2016. In‐person interviews were then conducted 1–2 days pre‐discharge (n = 65) and follow-up telephone interviews were made 1, 2, and 3 months post-discharge (n = 58, 55, and 54, respectively) to collect socio-demographic data, clinical characteristics, and EQ‐5D‐5L data. Results: Prior to discharge, one‐third or less of the 65 patients interviewed reported “no problems” with mobility (32%), self‐care (32%), usual activities (18%), and pain/discomfort (43%), whereas 74% reported “no problems” with anxiety/depression. By contrast, at 3 months post-discharge, an increased proportion of patients reported “no problems” with mobility (61%), self‐care (67%), usual activities (56%), and pain/discomfort (76%), with little change in anxiety/depression (“no problems” 70%). Conclusions: While there was improvement, many patients were still reporting problems at 3 months post-discharge, highlighting the need for ongoing support and care to ensure the best possible outcomes.
