PENGARUH PEMBERIAN KOMPRES PANAS TERHADAP INTENSITAS NYERI PEMBENGKAKAN PAYUDARA PADA IBU POST PARTUM DI WILAYAH KERJA PUSKESMAS PEMBANTU DAUH PURI
Abstract: Breast engorgement
on the post
partum that is
often experienced by women
on the third day until the fifth post partum. This engorgement is leading to pain and
if it is
untreated it can
lead to mastitis
and impact on
the scope of exclusive breastfeeding. One way to reduce
pain in non pharmacology is doing a hot
compress. The purpose
of this study
is to determine
the effect of hot
compresses to the painful intensity of breast engorgement in mothers post
partum. This study uses
a quasy experimental
design with pre
test and post
test design with control
group. The sample
of 30 respondents
were obtained through
quota sampling technique. Then
the sample was
divided into two
groups, that is the
experimental and control groups. The data was
collected using a numeric rating scale (NRS).
The research results
obtained that in
the pre test
the majority of respondents experienced moderate pain is
either in the control group (nine people or
60%) and the
experimental group (11
people or 73,3%).
Whereas in the
post test control group,
most respondents experienced
moderate pain,that is
nine people (60%) and
after it has
been given hot
compresses on the
experimental group, most respondents
experienced mild pain that is
as much as
11 people (73,3%). Based
on statistical tests
performed using the
Mann Whitney test
(p <0.05) obtained significance value 0.043 <0.05, then Ho is
rejected, which means there is a significant effect of the provision of hot
compresses to the decrease of the intensity of breast engorgement pain. Based
on these results, the nurse advises to
use hot compresses
as an alternative
therapy in non
pharmacology pain management in
the post partum
mothers who are
experiencing breast engorgement.
