Background: Applying a cooling treatment from outside the body is one way to lower fever in children. Midwives commonly perform a warm water compress in their care, but it is considered less effective. Thus, compress with aloe vera barbadensus miller is proposed in this study as an alternative treatment.Objective: To examine the effect of Aloe vera barbadensis miller compress in reducing body temperature in children with fever.Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study with pretest and posttest with control group design. Forty children were recruited, with twenty of them assigned in each group. Purposive sampling was performed to select the sample. A digital rectal thermometer was used to measure the temperature. Independent t- test and paired test were used for data analysis.Results: Findings showed that the aloe vera compress group showed a higher decrease of body temperature compared to the warm water compress group. The difference of body temperature after 20 minutes in the experiment group was 1.435 while in the control group was only 1.085. There were statistically significant differences in body temperature between the experiment and control group (p=0.013).Conclusion: Aloe vera barbadensis miller compress is an effective alternative therapy in reducing body temperature in children with fever.  It is recommended for midwives to apply this intervention to reduce body temperature significantly.

Background: Newborns are not able to regulate their body temperature directly and are quickly getting cold. If heat loss is not immediately prevented, the baby will experience hypothermia and is at risk of falling ill leading to death. Hypothermia is a decrease in body temperature below 36.50C. One way to handle it is by giving touch therapy.Objective:  This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of touch therapy to stabilize baby temperature in newborns in Sele Be Solu Hospital in Sorong City, Papua Indonesia.Methods: The study used a quasi-experimental design with pretest and posttest control group design. There were 32 patients, which 16 patients were assigned in the intervention group and the control group. Data were analyzed using Independent t-test.Results: The results showed that there was a significant increase in the body temperature of newborns in the intervention group (p=.000).Conclusion:  Touch therapy is effective for increasing body temperature in the newborns.

This research aims to know the difference between the experimental group given intervention with Quranic counseling and a control group without intervention. This is quasi-experimental research that used untreated control group design with pretest and posttest. The subjects of this research were 20 students of UIN Antasari Banjarmasin that have passed the screening test. They were divided into an experimental group and control group, each of which consisted of 10 people.  After the data were analyzed using non-parametric Mann-Whitney test, it was found out that  = - 1553; sig = 0.121 (p>0,05), which means there was no significant difference between the level of depression on students in the experimental group after the intervention and the level of depression on students in control group. Afterward, according to the analysis result on Wilcoxon score in the post-test and interview by the experimental group, it was found out that Z score = - 0,609a and p score = 0,542; therefore, p > 0,05. It means Quranic counseling is relatively effective to decrease the level of depression on the students. Despite there was no significant difference between the experimental group and control group, the depression level on the experimental group, however, did not increase even though the Quranic counseling had been given over two weeks before.
