Abstract

Background: The active phase of the first stage of labor often takes a long time and may increase the risk of complications. Non-pharmacological interventions such as the rebozo technique and birth ball are commonly used to help accelerate labor progress. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest control group approach. A total of 36 laboring mothers were selected using purposive sampling and divided into two groups: 18 in the rebozo group and 18 in the birth ball group. Data were collected using observation sheets and partographs to measure the duration of the active phase of the first stage of labor. Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and Mann-Whitney U Test. Results: The Wilcoxon test showed significant differences before and after intervention in both the rebozo group (p=0.000) and the birth ball group (p=0.000). The Mann-Whitney test indicated a significant difference between the two groups (p=0.000). The rebozo technique was found to be more effective than the birth ball in accelerating the first stage of labor. Conclusion: Both rebozo and birth ball techniques are effective in accelerating the first stage of labor; however, the rebozo technique is more effective. It is recommended as a non-pharmacological method in maternity care.

Abstract

Background: Pregnant women’s knowledge regarding healthy dietary patterns is often still low, which may affect maternal and fetal health. Health literacy is one of the promotive efforts that can improve pregnant women’s understanding of nutritional needs during pregnancy. Methods: This study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The sample consisted of 32 pregnant women at TPMB Bd. Eny Islamiati, S.Tr.Keb Bululawang. Data were collected using a knowledge questionnaire before and after the health literacy intervention. Data analysis was performed using the Paired Sample t-test with a significance level of 0.05. Results: Before the intervention, most respondents had poor knowledge (84.4%). After the intervention, knowledge improved, with most respondents having sufficient (65.6%) and good (34.4%) knowledge, and no respondents remaining in the poor category. Normality test results showed that the data were normally distributed (p>0.05). The Paired Sample t-test showed a significance value of 0.000 (p<0.05), indicating a significant difference between pretest and posttest. Conclusion: Health literacy is effective in improving knowledge of healthy dietary patterns among pregnant women at TPMB Bd. Eny Islamiati Bululawang.

Abstract

Introduction: Fluor albus is one of the problems that has long been a problem for women. Leucorrhea or Flour Albus is a symptom that most women very often experience. This disorder is the second most common problem after menstrual disorders. Fermentation of milk into milk curd is carried out with the help of lactic acid bacteria, namely Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus, causing microflora in the intestine. Objective: To identify the relationship between consumption of soy milk containing synbiotics and a decrease in the incidence of pathological fluor albus in adolescent girls. Materials and Methods: The population in this study was all female adolescent  with fluor albus, totaling 218 students. Inclusion Criteria: female Adolescent  aged 14-18 years. The sampling technique in this study was purposive sampling. Results: The results of the analysis showed that there were significant changes in the characteristics of fluor albus in the control group and the intervention group (p = 0.000 <0.05). The mean value ± standard deviation of hemoglobin in the control group (9.86 ± 1.09) and the intervention group (10.80 ± 1.47) also showed a significant difference (p = 0.000 <0.05). The average characteristics of fluor albus in the intervention group were greater than the average characteristics of fluor albus in the control group. This means that the provision of milk curd in the intervention group was able to reduce pathological fluor albus. So, the provision of milk curd has been proven to have an effect on the characteristics of the respondents' fluor albus. Conclusion: This study shows that in the pure population there is a significant difference in the practice of preventing pathological fluor albus in women in the intervention group and the control group after the implementation of the provision of milk curd.
