Abstract              Workers’ workload in the work place can cause the difference of work performance. One of the effect is job stress on the workers. Job stress can caused by workload factor in the work place, one of the workload is mental workload. The purpose of this research was to analyze job stress on workers in PT. Kerta Rajasa Raya. This research was an observational descriptive research, using cross sectional approach. The sample of this research was 47 morning shift-workers in Circulator Loom Unit PT. Kerta Rajasa Raya. The technique of collecting sample was total sampling method. The collected data was mental workload assessment that use NASA-TLX questionnaire, fulfillment of job stress measurement that use questionnaire which adopted from International Stress Management Association (ISMA). Data analysis was using Spearman Correlation test. The result of the research shown that most workers has mental workload with medium category (53,2%) and job stress with medium category (76,6%). Correlation coefficient (r) between mental workload and job stress is 0,186. This shows that there was a very weak correlation between mental workload and job stress on workers in PT. Kerta Rajasa Raya. Based on this data, it can be concluded that mental workload is not factor that caused job stress. It is suggested for the related company to do some efforts to reduce the level of job stress by holding a routine exercise and recreation to the workers. Beside that, it is suggested to make a job rotation to the workers. Keywords: Job Stress, Mental Workload Abstrak             Beban kerja yang didapat pekerja di tempat kerja dapat mempengaruhi performa kerja. Salah satu efek turunnya performa kerja yaitu terjadinya stres kerja yang dialami pekerja. Stres kerja dapat terjadi karena adanya faktor beban kerja di tempat kerja, salah satunya yaitu beban kerja mental. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis stres kerja akibat beban kerja mental pada pekerja PT. Kerta Rajasa Raya. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasional deskriptif, menggunakan desain penelitian cross sectional. Sampel penelitian sebesar 47 orang yang merupakan seluruh pekerja shift pagi pada Unit Circulator Loom PT. Kerta Rajasa Raya. Cara pengambilan sampel pada penelitian ini adalah total populasi. Pengumpulan data meliputi penilaian beban kerja mental dengan pengisian kuesioner NASA-TLX, pengisian kuesioner pengukuran stres kerja dengan menggunakan kuesioner yang diadopsi dari International Stress Management Association (ISMA). Analisis data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah uji korelasi Spearman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan sebagian besar pekerja memiliki beban kerja mental sedang (53,2%) dan mengalami stres kerja kategori sedang (76,6%). Nilai koefisien korelasi (r) antara beban kerja mental dengan stres kerja sebesar 0,186. Hal ini menunjukkan adanya hubungan yang sangat lemah antara beban kerja mental dengan stres kerja pada pekerja PT. Kerta Rajasa Raya. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah beban kerja mental tidak menjadi faktor yang menyebabkan terjadinya stres kerja. Sebaiknya perlu dilakukan upaya untuk mengurangi stres kerja yang dialami pekerja dengan cara mengadakan kegiatan olahraga dan rekreasi bersama secara berkala oleh pihak perusahaan serta melakukan rotasi kerja pada pekerja.

Background and purpose: Hypertension is a major risk factor for stroke. Despite efforts to control hypertension with pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies, the prevalence of and death from stroke is reported to be increasing. This study aims to determine the association of hypertension self-management with the incidence of stroke in patients with hypertension.Methods: A case-control study was conducted involving 44 patients suffering from hypertension and who had suffered a stroke as a case, as well as 44 patients with hypertension and no stroke as a control. Data on self-management of diet, physical activity, stress mitigation efforts, alcohol consumption, and medication adherence were collected using self administered questionnaire. Data on the diagnosis of hypertension, stroke and history of comorbidities were obtained from the patient's medical records. Multivariatee analysis using logistic regression was employed to assess the association between hypertension self-management with the incidence of stroke in patients with hypertension.Results: Characteristics of cases and controls did not differ in education, marital and socioeconomic status, but differed in age and employment. Multivariate analysis showed that there were three components of hypertension self-management associated with the incidence of stroke, namely poor adherence to medication (AOR=7.28; 95%CI: 2.19-24.17), poor self-management of stress (AOR=5.45; 95%CI: 1.56-18.99), and poor management of self-regulated diet (AOR=5.28; 95%CI: 1.31-21.32).Conclusions: Medication adherence, diet and stress management are the three main components of self-management that are associated with stroke events among hypertension patients. Efforts to increase medication adherence, diet and stress management should be enhanced.

AbstractBiofeedback is a therapeutic method of obtaining better awareness of physiological functions based on principles of operant conditioning and learning in general. While patient observes changes in physiological parameters in real-time (e.g. blood pressure, heart rate variability, temperature, electrodermal activity, etc.), he/she learns how to manipulate them at will. By means of this technique, individuals can improve their mental, emotional, and physical health. Clinical biofeedback training becomes popular for treating a variety of medical conditions, manage ment of disease symptoms, and improvement of overall health through training of stress management. There is no center or group to systematically deal with biofeedback methods in Slovakia, except the Slovak Institute of CBT (cognitive-behavioral therapy) that teaches biofeedback as a therapeutic method. However, biofeedback and its opportunities have a relatively long history of exploration and practice, which is the best precondition for positive changes in this area. The review article aims to provide an insight to biofeedback training as a non-pharmacological therapeutic tool in stress management and stress-related diseases and disorders. The article also describes biofeedback modalities and efficacy on various medical conditions.

Crisis Intervention Services

This chapter provides a clear overview of a peer support program for first responders. The field of Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) was specifically developed to prepare emergency services personnel to psychologically manage significant traumatic events and to recover from the impact of psychological trauma. CISM services are based in the theoretical foundations of crisis intervention and CISM uses the lessons learned from the 150-year history of worldwide crisis intervention services. This chapter presents a history of crisis intervention that helps the reader to understand the core principles of crisis support. It then focuses on the numerous techniques that are incorporated into the Critical Incident Stress Management field. It summarizes key peer support procedures and practices. The chapter also describes the resiliency and the “AS IF” models that aid in the application of crisis intervention services. The chapter concludes with a summary of the evidence that supports CISM services.

A 37-year-old male with a 13-year history of atopic dermatitis (AD) was treated with cognitive behavioural stress management. Self-rated stress and extent of AD rash decreased from baseline to the end of treatment, and gains were maintained at follow-up. A significant correlation between stress and extent of AD rash was observed. Discussion focused on the possible role of stress induced immunosuppression on exacerbations of AD, and the need for controlled trials evaluating the treatment procedures used in the current study.
