Methods: In this study, quantitative research methods, using purposive sampling with quasi-experimental study pretest-posttest one group design research design. This study took from 22 students who practiced clinics and confirmed Covid-19 students who were exposed to Covid-19. At the value of the level of anxiety after being administered a progressive muscle relaxation therapi is 2.17 with a standard deviation of 0.381. The results of the statistical test obtained a p value of 0.000, then p < α where H 0 was rejected, meaning that there was a significant influence on the level of student anxiety before and after progressive relaxation. It is hoped that this research can be used as one of the implementations of nonpharmacology therapi to patients who have been confirmed with Covid-19 to reduce anxiety levels through the administration of his progressive muscle relaxation therapi.

2024-01-04T02:53:33+00:00

Background: Individuals afflicted with diabetes mellitus (DM) globally constitute 8.3% of the overall world population (IDF, 2015). Diabetes Mellitus manifests as a metabolic irregularity characterized by heightened blood sugar levels and disruptions in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins due to deficiencies in insulin secretion and function. Purpose: The aim of this literature review was to assess the influence of foot gymnastics exercises on individuals with diabetes mellitus. Methods: The literature exploration method involved utilizing Google Scholar (2020-2023) and employing the search terms "Foot Gymnastics" AND "Diabetes Mellitus." Five journals that adhered to the predefined inclusion criteria were identified throughout the search procedure. Literature analysis findings revealed that the majority of the located journals were published in 2022, employing case study research designs. The exclusive use of Purposive Sampling was the chosen sampling method, with an observation sheet serving as the instrument. Data analysis was executed through the Wilcoxon test. Results: The comprehensive review of all journals concluded that foot gymnastics significantly contributes to lowering blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes mellitus. This outcome aligns with Smeltzer & Bare's (2002) theory, asserting that foot exercises can effectively decrease blood sugar levels. The average reduction in blood sugar levels following foot gymnastics ranged from 29.12 to 160 mg/dL. Conclusion: Consequently, foot gymnastics can be integrated as an intervention for reducing blood sugar levels in diabetes mellitus patients.
