Abstract


Stroke is a chronic disease that causes sufferers to experience disorders in the form of paralysis of the limbs, speech disorders, thought process disorders, memory problems and other disorders due to disruption of brain function. This qualitative study was conducted to explore the experiences of stroke survivors and the coping mechanisms between men and women during recovery with 6 female and 4 male informants. The results showed that female survivors of stroke were more successful in carrying out the coping mechanism in the recovery process, more knowledge of coping mechanisms was owned by female survivors (67%), female survivors of stroke were also better at perceiving the physical changes they experienced and were more positive in perceiving the need for social support, but in respond to psychosocial response to stroke. The results of the study showed no difference between male and female stroke survivors. Therefore, the hospital and medical surgical nurses must be able to consider the gender of the patient when providing nursing care to stroke patients.

ABSTRAK

Stroke merupakan salah satu penyakit kronis yang menyebabkan penderita mengalami gangguan berupa kelumpuhan anggota gerak, gangguan bicara, gangguan proses pikir, gangguan daya ingat dan gangguan lainnya akibat tergangguanya fungsi otak. Studi kualitatif ini dilakukan untuk menggali pengalaman penyintas stroke, mekanisme koping diantara laki-laki dan perempuan selama recovery dengan jumlah informan 6 perempuan dan 4 laki-laki. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penyintas stroke berjenis kelamin perempuan lebih berhasil melakukan mekanisme koping dalam proses recovery, pengetahuan tentang mekanisme koping lebih dimiliki penyintas berjenis kelamin perempuan (67%), penyintas stroke berjenis kelamin perempuan juga lebih baik dalam mempersepsikan perubahan fisik yang dialaminya dan lebih positif dalam mempersepsikan kebutuhan dukungan sosial, namun dalam merespon psikososial akibat stroke hasil penelitian menunjukkan tidak ada perbedaan antara penyintas stroke laki-laki dan perempuan karena mereka menyampaikan informasi sesuai jawaban yang telah diberikan. Untuk itu pihak rumah sakit dan perawat medikal bedah harus dapat mempertimbangkan jenis kelamin pasien saat memberikan asuhan keperawatan dan proses pemulihan pada pasien stroke.

Kata kunci: jenis kelamin; mekanisme koping; penyintas; stroke
