STUDI KASUS : PERAWATAN LUKA ABSES MENGGUNAKAN MODERN DRESSING HYDROFIBER DAN EPITEL CREAM DI PRAKTIK MANDIRI GRIYA AFIAT KOTA MAKASSAR
type: item
description: Background: An abscess is a skin infection caused by the accumulation of pus, commonly due to Staphylococcus aureus. This condition is more frequently found in patients with diabetes mellitus due to impaired immunity and microcirculation, which slows the wound-healing process. Conventional wound care is often insufficient in controlling exudate and preventing infection, thus requiring modern dressings such as Hydrofiber silver, which effectively absorbs exudate and provides antimicrobial activity to support healing. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Hydrofiber silver and zinc epithelial cream in the management of abscess wounds. The intervention focused on exudate control, infection prevention, periwound protection, and acceleration of granulation and epithelialization processes in patients treated at the Griya Afiat Independent Practice, Makassar City. Method: A case study was conducted on Mr. AH, a 61-year-old male with an abscess wound on the back. Wound assessment and treatment were carried out during two visits, on Monday and Thursday. The procedure included wound cleansing, application of Hydrofiber silver as the primary dressing, and zinc epithelial cream on the periwound area to maintain moisture and prevent irritation. Results: Over two visits, initial improvements were observed. Wound size decreased from 1.3 × 1.6 cm to 1.2 × 1.4 cm. The wound showed subcutaneous depth, a tunnel < 2 cm, 25% slough, 50% granulation tissue, 25% epithelialization, moderate purulent exudate, and surrounding skin with hypopigmentation, mild edema, and induration < 2 cm. The total score was 29, with an estimated healing time of 5–6 weeks. Conclusion: The combination of Hydrofiber silver and zinc epithelial cream effectively contributed to exudate control and periwound protection, although continued care is needed to optimize the healing of abscess wounds.

PENERAPAN RANGE OF MOTION (ROM) PADA PASIEN STROKE DENGAN GANGGUAN MOBILITAS FISIK DI WILAYAH KERJA PUSKESMAS PAMPANG KOTA MAKASSAR PUSKESMAS PAMPANG
type: item
description: STROKE is one of the major health problems in Indonesia because it not only increases morbidity and disability rates but also reduces patients' quality of life. Physical mobility impairment is one of the common effects on post-stroke patients due to muscle weakness and limited range of motion. One nursing intervention that can be provided to reduce these effects is Range of Motion (ROM) exercises, which have been proven to maintain joint flexibility, increase muscle strength, and prevent complications from immobilisation. To determine the application of ROM in stroke patients with physical mobility disorders in the working area of the Pampang Community Health Centre in Makassar City. A case study was conducted through nursing care that included the stages of assessment, nursing diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. The intervention was carried out for three days (3x24 hours) on patient Mr. B, a 66-year-old male with a history of non-haemorrhagic stroke since 3 years ago who experienced weakness in his right extremities. The results showed that after ROM exercises, the patient experienced improved mobility, characterised by reduced muscle stiffness, increased limb strength, and increased range of motion. Daily evaluations showed that the problem of physical mobility impairment had been partially resolved, with the involvement of the family playing an important role in helping with the exercises at home. The application of ROM is effective in improving the mobility of stroke patients, preventing complications due to immobilisation, and supporting patient independence. ROM exercises are a simple, inexpensive intervention that can be performed independently by patients and families, so they are recommended for routine application both in health facilities and at home.

EFEKTIVITAS PRIMARY DRESSING HIDROFOBIK SEBAGAI PADA LUKA DIABETIC FOOT ULCER DIRUMAH ETN CENTERE MAKASSAR
type: item
description: Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU) is one of the most serious chronic complications in people with diabetes mellitus. DFU is an open wound in the foot tissue that arises due to a combination of neuropathy, peripheral vascular disorders (ischemia), and susceptibility to infection. Hydrophobicity can increase effectiveness by up to 4% in attracting fungi and hydrophobic bacteria, thereby preventing the formation of biofilms in wounds. Modern dressings Cutimed Sorbact is a type of antimicrobial dressing that has strong hydrophobic properties. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of hydrophobic primary dressings on diabetic foot ulcers at the ETN Center Makassar. This study used a case report study method with a descriptive approach. This study only used one sample, namely one patient (case report) with Diabetic Foot Ulcer who was treated at the ETN Center Makassar. DFU wound care with hydrophobic dressings showed good results. The wound area decreased from 0.35 cm² (20/08/2025) to 0.25 cm² (23/08/2025). Exudate decreased from 30% to 20%, biofilm from 25% to 20%, granulation tissue increased from 60% to 65%, while necrotic tissue, slough, and epithelium remained at 5% each. This indicates a positive wound healing process. Treatment of Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFU) using hydrophobic dressings effectively accelerates the healing process, characterized by reduced wound area, reduced exudate and biofilm, and increased granulation tissue/healthy tissue. This suggests that hydrophobic dressings may be a good choice in DFU wound management.

PENERAPAN CALCIUM ALGINATE SEBAGAI PRIMARY DRESSING TERHADAP PERCEPATAN GRANULASI DAN EPITELISASI LUKA VENA DI PRAKTIK MANDIRI GRIYA AFIAT KOTA MAKASSAR
type: item
description: Venous wounds are a chronic problem that often occurs due to venous insufficiency and is characterized by excess exudate and slow healing. One of the modern approaches to chronic wound management is the use of calcium alginate as a primary dressing, which is able to absorb exudate, retain optimal moisture, and accelerate the granulation and epitheliation process. The purpose of the study was to determine the effectiveness of the application of calcium alginate as a primary dressing on the acceleration of granulation and epithelialization of venous wounds in the Independent Practice of Griya Afiat, Makassar City. This study is a case study in one patient with chronic venous injury. The treatment was carried out during two consecutive visits for three days using calcium alginate as the primary dressing with a combination of elastic compression dressings. Wound evaluation was performed using the Bates-Jensen Wound Assessment Tool. The results showed that after two treatments, there was a decrease in wound area from 35.91 cm² to 25.4 cm² (a change of 29.2%), a decrease in exudate from 35% to 15%, an increase in granulation tissue from 55% to 60%, and a decrease in epithelialization from 45% to 40% indicating an active proliferation phase. The application of calcium alginate as a primary dressing effectively accelerates the granulation process, reduces exudate, and significantly reduces the size of venous wounds. This dressing is recommended as the main choice for venous wounds with moderate to high exudate.

type: item
description: Hypertension is one of the non-communicable diseases with a high prevalence and is known as the silent killer because it is often asymptomatic and causes serious complications. One of the main problems that hypertensive patients experience is sleep disturbances, which can worsen cardiovascular conditions. Activity Daily Living (ADL) management is an important non-pharmacological strategy to improve sleep quality while helping to control blood pressure. This research was conducted in the Pampang Health Center Working Area with the aim of finding out the effectiveness of the application of ADL management on the sleep quality of hypertensive patients. The research method used a case study on Mrs. T, a hypertensive patient with complaints of sleep disturbances. Interventions were carried out through structured daily activity arrangements including light mobilization, rest time management, low-salt healthy diet, and stress management. The results showed a significant improvement in sleep quality after regular application of ADL for three consecutive days. Before the intervention, the patient was only able to sleep 3–4 hours per night with frequent awakening, while after the intervention the sleep duration increased to 5–6 hours with a better quality and less frequent awakening. The application of ADL also reduces complaints of dizziness during activities and increases patients' independence in carrying out daily activities. In conclusion, ADL management has been shown to be effective as a nonpharmacological intervention to improve the sleep quality of hypertensive patients and can be applied routinely in community nursing care.
