Main Article Content
Abstract
Patients with end-stage kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis often experience Thirsty and reduce thirst in patients undergoing hemodialysis, among others, by chewing low-sugar gum and sucking ice cubes. stone to decrease thirst in chronic renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis. This type of research used a quasi-experimental design with a two-group pre-post design, with a total sample of 34 people divided into two groups of 17 people in the chewing gum group and 17 people in the ice cube group. The results of the study before chewing low-sugar gum felt thirsty were 14 people (82,4%) and 3 people (17,6%) who felt very thirsty, while before chewing ice cubes, 16 people felt thirsty (94,1%) and 1 person (5,9%). Giving low-sugar chewing gum decreased the thirsty of as many as 14 people (82,4%) and those who did not decrease thirsty as many as 3 people (17,6%), while after sucking ice cubes, the results showed a decrease in thirst by as much as 16 people (94,1%), and 1 person (5,9%). The results of the Mann-Whitney test showed that there was a difference in the effectiveness of chewing low sugar gum and sucking ice cubes in reducing Thirsty where sucking ice cubes was more effective than chewing low sugar gum with a p-value of 0,000. Sucking ice cubes is more effective in reducing Thirsty compared to chewing low-sugar gum. Can increase knowledge and insight for patients with chronic kidney failure in dealing with thirst.
