Abstract

Background: Pregnancy increases the risk of developing anxiety that may affect the fetus. Yoga is considered as an alternative therapy to reduce anxiety, blood pressure, and fetal heart rate. Objective: This study aimed to examine the effect of prenatal yoga on anxiety, blood pressure, and fetal heart rate in primigravida mothers. Methods: There were 39 primigravida mothers selected using purposive sampling, which divided into three groups - an experiment group with four-times prenatal yoga, an experiment group with eight-times prenatal yoga, and a control group. The Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HRSA) was used. Data were analyzed using One-way ANOVA and MANOVA. Results: There was a statistically significant difference of prenatal yoga on anxiety (p=0.005), systolic blood pressure (p=0.045), and fetal heart rate (p=0.010). However, there was no significant difference of prenatal yoga on diastolic blood pressure with p-value 0.586 (>0.05). Conclusion: There were significant effects of prenatal yoga on anxiety level, systolic blood pressure, and the fetal heart rates in primigravida mothers. The findings of this study can be an alternative treatment for midwife to deal with anxiety during pregnancy and an input for the class program of pregnant women to improve the quality of maternal and fetal health.

Abstract

Background: Touch is crucial for optimal growth and development of preterm babies. Gentle human touch is considered as a complementary treatment to spur their growth and development. Objective: To determine the effect of gentle human touch on weight gain, body temperature and pulse rate stability in preterm babies. Methods: This was a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) with pretest-posttest with control group. Thirty-nine respondents were selected by consecutive sampling, assigned into two treatment groups and one control group. Data were analyzed using MANOVA . Results: The results showed that there was statistically significant difference in body weight (p = 0.047), body temperature (p = 0.021), and pulse rate stability (p = 0.001) in preterm babies. Conclusion: Gentle human touch therapy twice a day is more effective in improving body weight, body temperature, and pulse rate stability in premature babies. It is recommended that gentle human touch be applied as an operational standard for premature baby care.

Abstract

Background: Women are at risk of iron-deficiency anemia, especially in teenage girls. One alternative treatment to prevent the occurrence of anemia is to consume guava leaf extract. Objective: To examine the effect of guava leaves extract on changes in blood profile level in teenage girls. Methods: This study was a quasi-experiment with pretest posttest control group design. This research was conducted at SMK Palebon Semarang Indonesia conducted on December 2016 - January 2017. There were 36 samples selected using a purposive sampling, with 18 samples were assigned in the experiment and control group. Blood profiles was measured in the Laboratory of Cito Klinik Setiabudi to see the hemoglobin level, hematocrit level, erythrocyte count, and platelet count. Data were analyzed using Independent t-test. Results: There were significant differences in hemoglobin and thrombocytes levels after given intervention between the experiment and control group with p-value <0.05. However, the intervention has no effect on hematocrit and erythrocytes levels (p>0.05). Conclusion: Guava leaves (Psidii folium) extracts have a significant effect on changes in hemoglobin and thrombocyte levels in teenage girls, but not in the hematocrit and thrombocytes levels. Therefore, it is suggested that guava leaves (Psidii folium) extracts can be an alternative treatment for midwives to prevent the occurrence of anemia in teenage girls.
