Objective: To examine the effectiveness of hypnodialysis on anxiety levels and adherence to medication, kidney diet and fluid intake in patients with chronic kidney disease.Methods: This was a randomized controlled trial study conducted from November to December 2016. Thirty respondents recruited using simple random sampling, which 17 respondents assigned randomly in the experiment and control group. The Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS), Morisky scale, adherence to kidney diet questionnaire, adherence to fluid intake questionnaire were used as instruments for this study. Paired t-test and repeated ANOVA were used for data analysis.Results: Findings showed that there was a statistically significant effect of hypnodialysis in reducing anxiety levels and improving adherence to medication, kidney diet, and fluid intake in patients with chronic kidney disease with p-value 0.000 (<0.05), which its effect started from day 7 (posttest 1).Conclusion: Hypnodialysis may decrease anxiety levels and improve medication adherence, kidney diet and fluid intake. Therefore, hypnodialyis can be anlternative treatment for patients with chronic kidney disease.
Background: The incidence of respiratory failure reaches 20-75 cases per 100,000 population each year with mortality rate reaching 30-50%. Provision of respiratory assistance with mechanical ventilation is provided with an indication of the inability of the respiratory function for optimal alveolar ventilation. Efforts to restore lung oxygenation ventilation function can be done through breathing exercises and are expected to improve pulmonary ventilation function.Objective: This study was to examine the effectiveness of the modified Slow Deep Pursed-Lips Breathing Exercise (SDPLBE) on vital lung capacity in patients post-extubation of mechanical ventilators.Methods: This was a true experimental study with pretest posttest control group design. Thirty respondents were selected using stratified random sampling, with 15 samples assigned in the experiment and control group. Peak flow meter was used to measure vital lung capacity (FEV1 value). Repeated measures ANOVA was used for data analysis.Results: There was a significant difference on respondent's vital lung capacity after given slow deep pursed lips-breathing exercise at each session from session 1 to session 8 (p=0.000). However both groups were not yet able to achieve ≥ 400 mL / min, but the experiment group was closer to the normal value (369) than the control group.Conclusion: Slow Deep Pursed-Lips Breathing Exercise may increase vital lung capacity in patients post-extubation of mechanical ventilator.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
