Abstract

AbstrakLuka maligna dengan tingkat malodor dan jumlah eksudat yang berlebihan dapat menyebabkan masalah ketidaknyamanan dan isolasi sosial sehingga berdampak negatif bagi kualitas hidup pasien. Penelitian ini bertujuan membandingkan efektifitas antara perawatan luka menggunakan madu dengan metronidazole dalam menurunkan tingkat malodor dan mengurangi jumlah eksudat luka maligna. Penelitian. Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah kuasi eksperimen dengan non equivalent pretest-posttest controlled group design dan non equivalent posttest only controlled group design. Berdasarkan consecutive sampling diambil sampel sebanyak 12 responden, terdiri dari enam responden kelompok kontrol dan enam responden kelompok intervensi, dengan kriteria: luka maligna stadium lanjut, laki-laki dan perempuan berusia 23-59 tahun, luas luka = 4cm². Perawatan luka dengan madu menurunkan tingkat malodor menurut pasien berdasarkan Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) dari 6,0 sebelum intervensi menjadi 2,1 sesudah intervensi hari ke-6, sementara perawatan luka dengan metronidazole tingkat malodor dari 5,6 menjadi 4,6. Hasil uji t menunjukkan nilai p<0,05; pada perubahan tingkat malodor. Perawatan luka dengan madu menunjukkan peningkatan jumlah eksudat dari 66,6gr sesudah intervensi hari ke-3 menjadi 80,8gr hari ke-6, sementara perawatan luka dengan metronidazole menunjukkan peningkatan jumlah eksudat dari 44,5gr menjadi 51,1gr. Hasil uji t menunjukkan nilai p>0,05 pada perubahan jumlah eksudat. Peneliti menyimpulkan perawatan luka dengan madu lebih efektif dibandingkan dengan metronidazole menurunkan tingkat malodor. Sementara perawatan luka dengan madu dan metronidazole belum efektif mengurangi jumlah eksudat luka maligna. Para pengambil kebijakan di institusi pelayanan kesehatan perlu mengeluarkan kebijakan yang dapat mengakomodasi penggunaan madu sebagai agen topical perawatan luka maligna. AbstractMalodor and exudates of wounds in malignancy can cause problems of discomfort & social isolation for patients. Both of them can produce negative impact on their quality of life. The treatment of malignant wounds use the right topical agent is a major factor in reducing malodor and wounds exudates. A comparative study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of honey and metronidazole on malodor & exudates malignant wounds. A Quasi experimental with non equivalent pretest-posstest controlled group design and non equivalent posttest only controlled group design were used in this study. Twelve sample was taken by a consecutive sampling, consis of six patients of control group and six patients of intervention group with a final stage of malignancy, 23-59 years old in male and female, size of wound is = 4 cm2. The wounds which we treated with honey demonstrated a reduction in malodor from patient perspectives using a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), from the mean score of malodor on onset was 6,0 and on the sixth days of the treatment, to 2,1. group, malodor also reduced from 5,6 before treatment and dropped to 4,6 after treatment. at test showed that there are a significant difference between honey and metronidazole in reducing malodor (p<0,05). On the other hand, the wounds treated with honey and metronidazole preduced more drainage. In the honey group, the increase in the amount of wound exudate was noticeable on the third days (66,6 gr) and the sixth days (80,8gr) after the treatment. While in the metronidazole group, the amount of wound exudate was increase on the third days (44,5 gr) and the sixth days (51,1gr) after the treatment. There are not statistically significant (p>0,05). The study concluded that the use of honey in the treatment of wounds in malignancy is more effective than metronidazole in reducing malodor patients perspectives. Base on findings, it is requested for decision makers in the healthcare institution to produce a policy that could accommodate usage of honey as a topical agent in the treatment of malignant wounds.
