PENGARUH PEMBERIAN WARMER BLANKET TERHADAP HEMODINAMIK PASIEN POST OPERASI DENGAN REGIONAL ANESTESI
Main Article Content
Abstract
Patients who undergo surgery with regional anesthesia may
experience hemodynamic impairment. The warmer blanket is a nonpharmacological therapy that can be used to address hemodynamic problems.
This study aimed to determine the effect of warmer blanket administration on
the hemodynamics of postoperative patients with regional anesthesia in the
recovery room of Kanjuruhan Hospital, Malang Regency. The method used was
a quasi-experimental design with two groups, pre-test and post-test. The sample
consisted of regional anesthesia patients who met the research criteria, with 18
respondents in each group. Hemodynamics, including blood pressure, pulse,
temperature, and oxygen saturation (SpO2), were measured using an
observation sheet before the intervention and at the first and second 15 minutes
after the intervention. The Wilcoxon test showed that the warmer blanket
affected systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, temperature, and
SpO2 (p = 0.000), while the conventional blanket affected systolic blood
pressure, temperature, and SpO2. The Mann-Whitney test showed differences
between the two groups (p < 0.05). The warmer blanket can be one of the nonpharmacological efforts to overcome hemodynamic changes in postoperative
patients, while still considering the patient's condition and collaborating with
the medical team.
