CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASES DENGAN KETIDAKSTABILAN GLUKOSA DARAH: CASE REPORT

Keywords:case report; nursing care; Chronic Kidney Diseases; pain; compress

Pain is a perceptual and affective distress linked to the possibility or occurrence of harm to bodily
tissues. When tissues are injured, discomfort might occur, prompting the person to take action to relieve
the suffering. One nursing intervention for pain control is the use of cold compresses. Cold compresses
function by inducing numbness in the afflicted region and impeding the transmission of further signals
via sensory neurons. This technique is a non-drug approach for pain management. The main grievance
expressed by the patient in this case study was cephalalgia. The cold compress intervention was
administered bi-daily for a duration of two days. Each session had a duration of 15 minutes, during
which a towel saturated with cold water was utilized. The intervention yielded results that demonstrated
a disparity in the mean pain levels prior to and following the implementation of the cold compress
intervention, suggesting a reduction in the severity of pain.
