Personal hygiene is an act to maintain the cleanliness and health of a person for physical and psychological well-being. Lack of knowledge and information about the importance of personal hygiene makes the elderly not think too much about the impact that personal hygiene will have on the elderly. So that education (counseling) related to personal hygiene can increase knowledge in the elderly about the importance of maintaining and caring for personal hygiene. This counseling uses audiovisual in the form of video media (AVA or Audio Visual Aids). The result of this community service is a fact that the counseling went well and the elderly felt happy with the knowledge that was given. A healthy and clean lifestyle needs to be continuously socialized because cleanliness is the root of health and the elderly are susceptible to various diseases that originate from body uncleanness.
Abstract. Covid-19 is a disease that attacks the respiratory system, symptoms include runny nose, sore throat, cough and fever. And in some people the symptoms can be more severe and cause pneumonia or difficulty breathing, a small number of these cases lead to death. This study aims to measure the efforts to deal with Covid-19 in the academic family of Nurul Jadid Probolinggo University. This type of research is qualitative with a descriptive approach. data collection on February 2, 2021 after obtaining approval from the Institute for Publishing, Research and Community Service (LP3M). Participants involved in the research were 8 people including 3 health faculty lecturers, 2 engineering faculty lecturers, 2 Islamic religion faculty lecturers and 2 education staff. The selection of participants from the population used a purposive sampling approach with the criteria being on campus when the research was carried out. The consent of the participants to be involved in the study was proven by signing the informed consent. Data collection was carried out through structured interviews using instruments in the form of new interviews containing questions about efforts to tackle Covid-19. The interview process was carried out by applying health protocols such as wearing masks, physical distancing, and washing hands before and after the interview. The data obtained were analyzed using the triangulation method of data sources to identify the categories, sub-themes, and themes of the participants' experiences. categories that have meanings are arranged to form sub-themes, then sub-themes that contain similar meanings as research themes. Data analysis was performed manually using thematic analysis methods. The results of his research show that the family of the Nurul Jadid University academic community has made efforts to tackle Covid-19. The conclusion is that the family of the academic community has made efforts to tackle Covid-19, in the form of wearing a mask while working, maintaining distance, washing hands (using a hand sanitizer), increasing immunity, applying the correct cough ethics, changing clothes or showering when you get home, controlling comorbidities and cleaning routinely objects that are often handled with disinfectants because they are aware that the Covid-19 disease is very dangerous and can die in a community.
ABSTRACT Background: COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) is one of the deadliest diseases in the world that causes various lung disorders such as dyspnea, so that if left unchecked it can decrease oxygen saturation in the body. Non Pharmacological interventions such as Pursed Lip Breathing and Balloon Blowing can help COPD patients reduce dyspnea. Objective: to analyze the effectiveness of Pursed Lip Breathing and Balloon Blowing to Increase Oxygen Saturation in COPD Patients. Methods: database search includes Google Scholar, Science Direct and Proquest with keywords Pursed Lip Breathing, Balloon Blowing, COPD / PPOK. The criteria for the articles chosen were published in 2016-2020 with full text, in Indonesian or English with experimental article types, this Systematic Review uses 15 articles that match the criteria. Results: Analysis of fifteen articles showed that many COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) patients had decreased oxygen saturation due to dyspnea. Several studies have shown that pursed lip breathing and balloon blowing can increase oxygen saturation and reduce respiratory frequency. Sugestion: Pursed Lip Breathing and Balloon Blowing are nonpharmacological therapies with easy techniques that are very effective in helping COPD patients reduce their dyspnea, resulting in increased oxygen saturation. Keywords: Pursed Lip Breathing, Balloon Blowing, COPD ABSTRAK Pendahuluan : COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) merupakan salah satu penyakit mematikan di dunia yang menyebabkan berbagai gangguan pada paru-paru seperti dispnea, sehingga jika dibiarkan terus-menerus dapat menurunkan saturasi oksigen dalam tubuh. Intervensi non Farmakologi seperti Pursed Lip Breathing dan Balloon Blowing dapat membantu pasien pasien COPD dalam mengurangi dispnea. Tujuan : untuk menganalisis Efektifitas Pursed Lip Breathing dan Balloon Blowing untuk Meningkatkan Saturasi Oksigen pada Pasien COPD. Metode: pencarian database meliputi Google Scholar, Science Direct dan Proquest dengan kata kunci Pursed Lip Breathing, Balloon Blowing, COPD/PPOK. Kriteria artikel yang dipilih yaitu terbit tahun 2016-2020 dengan teks penuh, berbahasa Indonesia atau inggris dengan jenis artikel eksperimental, Systematic Review ini menggunakan 15 artikel yang sesuai dengan kriteria. Hasil: Analisis dari lima belas artikel menunjukkan bahwa banyak pasien COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) yang mengalami penurunan saturasi oksigen karena dispnea. Beberapa hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pursed lip breathing dan balloon blowing dapat meningkatkan saturasi oksigen dan menurunkan frekuensi pernapasan. Kesimpulan: Pursed Lip Breathing dan Balloon Blowing merupakan terapi nonfarmakologis dengan teknik mudah yang sangat efektif membantu pasien COPD dalam mengurangi dispnea hingga berdampak pada peningkatan saturasi oksigen. Kata kunci : Pursed Lip Breathing, Balloon Blowing, COPD/PPOK
The increasing age, the more the risk of increasing blood pressure, especially systolic blood pressure, while diastolic increases only until the age of 55 years. Objective: This systematic review aims to provide an overview of lifestyle and hypertension in the elderly. Methods: This literature-based systematic review was obtained from NCBI, Science Direct, Google Scholar, DOAJ, and a total of 15 articles were reviewed to provide an overview of lifestyle and hypertension in the elderly. Results: Overall, the study results showed a significant reduction in lifestyle-induced blood pressure. There is no predictable pattern of these changes because blood pressure results vary across lifestyle interventions. These findings also reveal that lifestyle modifications lead to lower blood pressure. Conclusion: Therefore, we conclude that lifestyle modification is effective in reducing systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the elderly. Keywords: Lifestyle, Hypertension, Elderly
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.
