    DETECTION OF MUSCLE STRENGTH SIGNAL WITH PROGRESSIVE MUSCLE RELAXATION EXERCISE BASED ON ARDUINO UNO ON THE ELDERLY IN INDONESIA
    (FACULTY OF NURSING UNIVERSITAS RIAU, 2020-11-04) Elfira, Eqlima; Girsang, Bina Melvia
    To identify the muscle strength detection signal with progressive muscle relaxation based on Arduino Uno on the elderly. Method: An experimental method with one intervention group on 39 respondents over 45 years of age was used. Furthermore, data analysis was carried out using demographic data and observation sheets based on Arduino UNO connected to a smart phone. Result: The results showed that 21 male respondents (53.8%) and 18 female respondents (46.2%) received Arduino UNO-based progressive muscle relaxation training intervention with 30 treatments every day. This exercise was carried out routinely meanwhile, productive activities were given to 21 elderly respondents (53.8%) and unproductive activities to 18 respondents (46.2%). Conclusion: Detection of muscle strength with progressive muscle relaxation based on Arduino UNO is identifiable with a sensor value of 5.0/1023.0 volts.

    THE IMPACT OF LACERATION TYPES AND COLD GEL APPLICATIONS ON PERINEAL WOUND PAIN WITH VAGINAL DELIVERY
    (FACULTY OF NURSING UNIVERSITAS RIAU, 2020-11-04) Girsang, Bina Melvia
    This study aims to determine the effect of cold gel application and types of episiotomy laceration on perineal wound pain response of postpartum mothers with normal delivery. Method: Several types of episiotomy were performed, and cold gel was applied to the perineum of 31 postpartum mothers at home in the work area of Pantai Cermin. Furthermore, the subjects were selected using a purposive sampling technique. Measurement of pain response was carried out using a numeric rating scale. Also, Wilcoxon and Kruskal Wallis statistical tests were conducted to analyze the effects on pain response. Result: The analysis showed that there was a difference in the mean score of perineal wound pain after cold gel application (p = 0.000). But, the types of episiotomy laceration caused no difference in the score (p> 0.005). Conclusion: Episiotomy education and application of cold therapy are needed by health workers as self-care methods that can be done independently at home for postpartum mothers.
