Abstract

The stroke prevalence based on the diagnosis of health workers and the symptoms found in Lampung province
was 5.4 ‰. This study aimed to determine the effect of sensory and tactile stimulation on increasing Glasgow
Coma Scale (GCS) scores in stroke patients who experience decreased consciousness, using experimental
quasy designs. The population in this study were stroke patients with decreased consciousness (GCS < 13),
with a sample size of 32 respondents. Each respondent was measured for 5 days. The mean GCS score
before intervention in the treatment group was 8.31 and the control group was 11.06. After the intervention,
the mean GCS score in the intervention group was 8.94 and the control group was 11.12. While the p-value
was 0.006, so it was interpreted that sensory stimulation and tactile stimulation can significantly increase the
GCS score. It is recommended that nursing practitioners apply sensory stimulation and tactile stimulation in
the management of stroke patients who experience impaired consciousness.
