“…The adjustment of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) involves the balance of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerve activity and can represent changes in psychological status 6) . Numerous studies have indicated that HRV and the adjustment of ANS can be used to assess the psychological status of humans, such as depression and anxiety 6,7) . We hypothesized psychological status and heart function of post-menopausal women could be assessed via HRV and the adjustment of ANS.…”

Abstract.[Purpose] Post-menopausal women are often affected with menopausal syndromes, and their sedentary lifestyle may increase their risk of cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to assay the correlation between heart rate variability (HRV), the adjustment of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), and menopausal symptoms among different exercise behaviors of post-menopausal women. [Subjects and Methods] This was a cross-sectional study, and the relationships between exercise behavior, menopause rating scale (MRS), and HRV were analyzed. Subjects were assessed by a structured questionnaire and electrocardiography, and assigned to Group A, Group B, and Group C according to exercise behaviors (low, medium, and high, respectively).[Results] Three hundred and twenty-seven post-menopausal women were assessed. The correlation analysis revealed that exercise behaviors had negative correlations with MRS, and the low frequency component and the low frequency / high frequency ratio of heart rate power spectra. MRS of Group C was significantly lower than that of Groups A and B. There were no significant differences in HRV among the three groups.[Conclusions] The differences of exercise behavior affected post-menopausal symptoms and the adjustment of ANS of post-menopausal women.

“…Berbagai gejala dan ketidaknyamanan akan muncul pada masa menopause. Delapan puluh persen perempuan melaporkan bahwa adanya ketidaknyamanan yang terjadi saat klimakterium seperti sakit kepala, masalah seksual, takikardi, hot flushes, berkeringat dan insomnia yang secara signifikan dapat menurunkan kualitas hidup (Senba & Matsuo, 2010). Kurangnya pengetahuan dan akses informasi merupakan tantangan besar yang dihadapi oleh wanita menghadapi menopause (Khademi, 2003).…”

“…Berdasarkan penelitian yang telah dilakukan oleh Senba & Matsuo (2010) didapatkan hasil bahwa 22,7% perempuan klimakterik tanpa gejala, 36,4% mengalami gejala yang sedang sehingga diperlukan modifikasi perilaku dan gaya hidup, dan 36,4% mengalami gejala yang berat. Selain gejala klimakterik, dalam penelitian ini juga didapatkan hasil bahwa 30% wanita klimakterik mengalami gangguan fisik, 10% mengalami gangguan psikologis dan 15% mengalami stres.…”

AbstrakPerubahan fisik dan psikologis yang terjadi pada masa klimakterium akan mempengaruhi kualitas hidup perempuan. Untuk itu diperlukan proses adaptasi terhadap berbagai masalah dan perubahan selama masa klimakterium sehingga akan meningkatkan kualitas hidup perempuan klimakterik. Kurangnya pengetahuan dan akses informasi merupakan tantangan besar yang dihadapi oleh wanita menopause. Salah satu upaya yang bisa dilakukan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan adalah melalui pemberian pendidikan kesehatan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pendidikan kesehatan tentang menopause terhadap perubahan kualitas hidup perempuan klimakterik. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian quasy experiment dengan rancangan pretest and posttest nonequivalent control group design. Penelitian dilakukan di Dusun Gamping Kidul Ambarketawang bulan Desember 2013-April 2014. Jumlah populasi sebanyak 271 orang. Sampel terdiri dari 44 orang kelompok intervensi dan 44 orang kelompok kontrol. Kelompok intervensi diberikan pendidikan kesehatan sebanyak 4 kali ceramah dan diskusi kelompok kecil, serta 1 kali praktik relaksasi dan senam yoga. Kelompok kontrol diberikan booklet tentang perubahan masa menopause, tanda dan gejala, nutrisi masa menopause, dan penatalaksanaan menopause. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah WHOQOL-BREF. Analisis yang digunakan adalah uji Paired t-test, Independent Samples t-Test dengan α 0.05.Nilai rata-rata kualitas hidup pretest pada kelompok intervensi sebesar 51,9 dan posttest sebesar 66,5. Hasil uji paired t-test menunjukkan ada perbedaan skor kualitas hidup sebelum dan sesudah diberikan pendidikan kesehatan pada kelompok intervensi (t =14,436, p=0,001). Namun tidak bermakna pada kelompok kontrol (t=1,059, p= 0,0295) dengan perubahan skor kualitas. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa program pendidikan kesehatan tentang menopause dapat meningkatkan kualitas hidup perempuan selama periode klimakterium.Kata kunci : Klimakterium, kualitas hidup, menopause, pendidikan kesehatan. Influence of Health Education about Menopause towards the Quality of Life Changes in Climacteric Women AbstractPhysical and psychological changes that happen at the climacterium period would influence the quality of life in climacteric women. Therefore, the adaptation process is needed to overcome problems and changes during this period so that the quality of life of climacteric women could be increased.

This study aimed to identify the influence of health education about menopause towards the quality of live changes in climacteric women. The study used quasi experiment design with pretest and posttest nonequivalent control group. The location of this study was in Gamping Kidul Ambarketawang Village in December 2013 to April 2014. The total population is 271 people. Sample consisted of 44 people in the intervention group and 44 people in...

“…This includes gradual physiological degeneration, with a considerable decrease in the production of sleep quality-regulating hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. In addition, because women have different social and cultural expectations than men (Senba & Matsuo, 2010), the multi-faceted phenomenon produces changes in the sleep-controlling neuroendocrine system, causing sleep disorders (Manocha, Semmar, & Black, 2007). Studies done on the prevalence of menopausal symptoms have reported that approximately 20 to 60% of menopausal women complain about having sleep disorders (Eichling & Sahni, 2005;Moilanen et al, 2010;Woods & Mitchell, 2005), indicating the prevalence and severity of sleep-related problems.…”

“…It is generally believed that the combined use of multiple behavioral techniques to improve sleep quality is more effective than a single technique. However, current solutions introduced in most studies employ only a single intervention to improve the sleep disturbance experienced by menopausal women (Elavsky & McAuley, 2007;Senba & Matsuo, 2010). Studies that have implemented two or more intervention strategies are scant.…”
