Description

Background: the application of complementary therapies in hospitals is still
not optimal. The limitations of the application of nursing interventions are
caused by the factor of applying therapy by nurses to patients and education
related to therapy to patients is still rarely done. Nurses are still focusing on
conventional treatment with pharmacological therapies such as analgesic
drugs to relieve pain, while warm compress therapy is still not prioritized. The
application of warm compress therapy in the inpatient room of Gardena dr.
Soebandi General Hospital Jember to overcome acute pain nursing problems
in patients is still rare. Aims: evaluate warm compress interventions in
patients with acute pain nursing problems. Method: type of research case
study using nursing care method. The sample was a patient treated in the
Gardena room of dr. Soebandi General Hospital Jember with acute pain
nursing problems. Patients are given nursing intervention in the form of
warm compress therapy for 15-20 minutes for 3 days, from January 16 to 18,
2023. Nursing intervention is given through the nursing process, which is
teaching directly to patients and families with the right and appropriate
techniques to adjust the patient's condition. Results: the provision of nursing
interventions in the form of warm compresses can overcome acute pain
nursing problems. This is shown by the improvement of the patient's
condition that complaints of pain, grimacing and restlessness decrease and
sleep patterns improve. Patients can do the therapy independently properly
and correctly. Conclusion: warm compress therapy is effective in overcoming
acute pain nursing problems.
