Abstract

Dyspepsia is a non-communicable disease that is common around the world, including Indonesia. This disease is often accompanied by discomfort or pain in the upper abdomen which can interfere with the patient's quality of life. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of nursing care in patients with dyspepsia diagnosis, especially in meeting the need for a sense of security and comfort through relaxation techniques. This study uses a qualitative method with a prospective case study approach. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews, and documentation studies, which are then comprehensively analyzed. The results showed that after 2x24 hours of nursing treatment with relaxation therapy in patient "S" diagnosed with dyspepsia, a decrease in the pain scale was found from 4 to 2. This shows that relaxation techniques are effective in reducing pain and improving patient comfort. The study implies that the application of relaxation techniques can be one of the effective non-pharmacological interventions in pain management in dyspepsia patients. These findings can be used as a reference in nursing practice to improve the quality of care for patients with similar conditions.
