"Penuaan merupakan proses alamiah ditandai dengan adanya perubahan secara fisiologis. Perubahan fisiologis ini menyebabkan perubahan kulit pada lansia, seperti penurunan elastisitas kulit, penurunan kelembapan, dan penurunan keringat serta kelenjar minyak. Hal tersebut menyebabkan lansia rentan mengalami gangguan integritas kulit dan merupakan masalah yang paling banyak ditemukan di panti sosial yang berdampak signifikan pada kualitas hidup lansia. Oleh karena itu, pengembangan tatalaksana berbasis bukti dalam melakukan perawatan kulit kering menggunakan petroleum jelly dilakukan untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut dan meningkatkan kualitas hidup lansia. Tujuan karya ilmiah ini adalah untuk menjelaskan tentang asuhan keperawatan pada lansia dengan gangguan integritas kulit melalui penggunaan petroleum jelly di Panti Sosial Tresna Werdha Budi Mulia 4. Intervensi berupa perawatan kulit menggunakan petroleum jelly dilakukan sebanyak dua kali sehari selama 15 hari. Pengukuran dilakukan dengan menggunakan instrumen 12-Pruritus Severity Scale (12-PSS) untuk menilai tingkat pruritus dan Overall Dry Skin (ODS) Score untuk menilai kondisi kulit. Hasil intervensi menunjukkan adanya penurunan skor 12-Pruritus Severity Scale dari 16 dengan kategori berat menjadi 3 dengan kategori ringan dan skor ODS dari 4 dengan kategori ekstrem menjadi 1 dengan kategori ringan. Hasil ini menunjukkan penggunaan petroleum jelly terbukti efektif dalam perawatan kulit kering dan menurunkan pruritus. Hasil tersebut diharapkan dapat menjadikan petroleum jelly sebagai salah satu intervensi perawatan kulit untuk mengatasi gangguan integritas kulit pada lansia.

Aging is a natural process characterized by physiological changes. These physiological changes cause skin changes in the elderly, such as decreased skin elasticity, decreased moisture, and decreased sweat and oil glands. This makes the elderly susceptible to impaired skin integrity and is the most common problem found in social institutions that has a significant impact on the quality of life of the elderly. Therefore, the development of evidence-based management in treating dry skin using petroleum jelly is carried out to overcome this problem and improve the quality of life of the elderly. The purpose of this scientific paper is to explain about caring for the elderly with impaired skin integrity through the use of petroleum jelly at the Tresna Werdha Budi Mulia 4 Social Home. The intervention in the form of skin care using petroleum jelly was carried out twice a day for 15 days. Measurements were made using the 12-Pruritus Severity Scale (12-PSS) instrument to assess the level of pruritus and the Overall Dry Skin (ODS) Score to assess skin conditions. The results of the intervention showed a decrease in the 12-Pruritus Severity Scale score from 16 with a severe category to 3 with a mild category and the ODS score from 4 with an extreme category to 1 with a mild category. These results indicate that the use of petroleum jelly has been proven effective in the treatment of dry skin in reducing pruritus. These results are expected to make petroleum jelly one of the skin care interventions to overcome skin integrity disorders in the elderly. "

"This book deals exclusively with the former form of treatment. Prof. Howard Maibach and co-workers are to be congratulated for sharing all their dermatological insights with the readers of Cosmetics & Toiletries Magazine for at least a decade or so. We should accepts these lessons in dermatology with thanks and use them in our strive for ever better products. After all, our goal is to avoid creating a product that might lead to problematic skin. To assess whether we were successful in these endeavors, cosmetic product developers often unknowingly use dermatological techniques to demonstrate the safety of their products. Because of the nature of our industry, we need to develop our cosmetic products faster and faster, so it is more than fantastic that Prof. Howard Maibach and colleagues share their latest insights with us in a series of very effective reviews. I just hope that we will all have the time to read and digest the content of this book for the benefit of all, dermatologists, cosmetic product developers and consumers. After all, we all want only the same: better cosmetic products. Reading this book is the very first step to achieving it. --Prof. Johann W. Wiechers, Ph.D.Independent Consultant for Cosmetic Science, JW SolutionsThis volume collects 48 columns published under the heading "A dermatological view" in Cosmetics & toiletries magazine. The articles are arranged according to normal skin, damaged skin, and troubled skin, but are a mix of physiology-based, evaluation-based, results-driven, and therapy-based literature reviews. Maibach (U. of California, San Francisco) describes ethnic variations in skin properties, wound healing models, methods to quantify the protein collected by tape stripping, sensitive skin syndrome, fragrance allergen patch testing, keratolytic treatments for acne, and challenges to sunscreen efficacy. --Eithne O'Leyne, Annotation © Book News Inc., Portland"
