"Pasien kanker yang menjalani kemoterapi akan mengalami masalah utama yaitu mual muntah. Penatalaksanaan mual muntah yang tepat diperlukan untuk mengurangi mual muntah. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui efek minyak pepermint dan kompres hangat dalam menurunkan mual muntah akibat kemoterapi pada pasien kanker. Desain penelitian ini mengggunakan quasi eksperiment dengan rancangan pre post test with control group, pengambilan sampel menggunakan concecutive sampling. Jumlah sampel yaitu 34 responden 17 orang kelompok perlakuan dan 17 orang kelompok kontrol . Mual muntah diukur dengan menggunakan instrument Rhodes index Nausea, Vomitting and Retching. Uji statistik menggunakan uji non parametrik Mann Whitney test. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya efektitivitas yang signifikan pada minyak pepermint dan kompres hangat dalam menurunkan mual muntah akibat kemoterapi pada pasien kanker.

Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy will have major problem of nausea, vomiting. Appropriate management of nausea and vomiting is needed to reduce nausea and vomiting. The aim of this study is to know the effects of peppermint oil and warm compresses in reducing nausea vomiting due to chemotherapy in cancer patients. the design of this study used quasi experiment with pre post test with control group design, sampling using concecutive sampling. Total of sample were 34 respondents 17 intervention group and 17 control group . Nausea and vomiting were measured using the Rhodes index Nausea, Vomitting and Retching instrument. Statistical test used nonparametric test of Mann Whitney. The result showed that there was a significant effectiveness of peppermint oil and warm compresses to reduction nausea and vomiting due to chemotherapy in cancer patients."

"Air Traffic Control (ATC) tasks require a high mental workload with complex cognitive activities. Since the tasks are likely to be fatigue-inducing and may cause aircraft accidents, ergonomics interventions are needed. This study investigated the effectiveness of peppermint odor on improved performance and fatigue while conducting simulated ATC tasks. A total of 16 participants performed ATC tasks using SkyHigh simulation software for two hours in two conditions (with and without peppermint odor). While the simulator was able to record participants’ performance during ATC tasks, participants’ fatigue development was monitored using an electroencephalograph (EEG), a heart rate monitor (HRM), and psychomotor vigilance task (PVT) apparatus. The results of this study show that the use of peppermint odor significantly (p < 0.05) improved simulation performance, based on all simulation indicators. The peppermint odor also significantly (p < 0.05) inhibited fatigue development, based on an EEG measure (decline in parietal ?), two HRM measures (decline in low frequency power (LF) and increase in high frequency power (HF)), and a PVT measure (10% of the longest time reaction)."
