Journal of Applied Holistic Nursing Science https://www.jurnal.kesehatan.cendikiajenius-ind.id/index.php/JAHNS <p>Holistic nursing, which emphasizes the care of the physical, psychological, social, and spiritual aspects of the person, is always the core of nursing practice. The goal of nursing care is not only to fulfill needs in relation to each of these dimensions but also to restore the harmony of the patient's life. Holistic nursing is a discipline focused on healing the whole person and dedicated to understanding and supporting the premise of holistic health of the patient and promoting healing in practitioners, patients, families, social groups, and communities. Holistic nursing research is complex and focuses on healing, particularly healing of self, others, systems, and communities at large.</p> <p>e-ISSN 3090-1316</p> CV.

Differences in sampling methods, particularly capillary and venous blood, may influence the accuracy of results obtained using Point-of-Care Testing (POCT).</em> <em>This study aimed to determine the differences in hemoglobin levels measured using POCT between capillary and venous blood samples in pregnant women at UPTD Puskesmas Kuta II.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Methods : </em></strong><em>This research employed a simple experimental design with a total sample of 30 pregnant women selected using a quota sampling technique. Hemoglobin levels were measured using a POCT device for both capillary and venous blood samples. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analysis with the Paired Sample T-Test.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Results:</em></strong> <em>The results showed that the mean hemoglobin level in capillary blood was 12.5 g/dL, while in venous blood it was 12.2 g/dL. Statistical analysis indicated a significant difference between the two measurements (p-value &lt; 0.001). The higher hemoglobin level in capillary blood may be attributed to differences in oxygen distribution between capillary and venous circulation.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Conclusion : </em></strong>&nbsp;<em>In conclusion, there is a significant difference in hemoglobin levels measured using POCT between capillary and venous blood samples in pregnant women.</em></p> I Dewa Gede Aditya Satria Darma Putra Putu Ayu Parwati Ni Komang Sukra Andini Copyright (c) 2026 I Dewa Gede Aditya Satria Darma Putra, Putu Ayu Parwati, Ni Komang Sukra Andini https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2026-10-01 2026-10-01 3 1 1 6 10.70920/jahns.v3i1.456 The Relationship Between Widal Agglutination Titer Categories and Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio in Patients with Acute Fever https://www.jurnal.kesehatan.cendikiajenius-ind.id/index.php/JAHNS/article/view/457 <p><strong><em>Background:</em></strong> <em>Acute fever is a common clinical condition caused by various infectious agents, including Salmonella Typhi. The Widal test is widely used to support typhoid diagnosis because it is simple, rapid, and inexpensive, although its diagnostic accuracy is limited. The Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) is a hematological parameter reflecting systemic inflammation. This study aimed to determine the relationship between Widal agglutination titer categories and NLR in patients with fever</em></p> <p><strong><em>Methods : </em></strong><em>This observational analytical study used a cross-sectional approach. Secondary data were obtained from medical records and laboratory results. A total of 134 patients with fever were selected using purposive sampling. Widal titers and neutrophil and lymphocyte counts were recorded, and NLR was calculated by dividing the neutrophil count by the lymphocyte count. Data were analyzed using Spearman’s correlation test at 0.05.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Results:</em></strong> <em>Moderately positive Widal titers (1:160) predominated, accounting for 29.9% of patients. Low NLR values (&lt;3) predominated at 44.0%. Spearman analysis showed a significant positive relationship between Widal titer categories and NLR (p = 0.030; r = 0.187), with a very weak correlation.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Conclusion:</em></strong> <em>There was a significant positive relationship between Widal titers and NLR. However, the very weak correlation indicates that other factors may influence NLR values.</em></p> Anak Agung Istri Tika Ulundia Anak Agung Ayu Eka Cahyani Moh.
