Abstract

Uterine involution is an important physiological process after childbirth that indicates the recovery of the uterus to its normal size and function. However, suboptimal involution can cause serious complications in postpartum mothers. Non-pharmacological approaches, specifically postpartum exercise and oxytocin massage, are recognized for their potential to facilitate uterine involution. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of these two interventions among postpartum mothers at the Matahari Pratama Clinic. Adopting a quasi-experimental framework with a two-group pretest-posttest design, the research involved 20 participants divided equally into two intervention groups. Uterine involution progress was systematically monitored both prior to and following the administration of either postpartum exercise or oxytocin massage. The results 1showed that before the intervention, 7 respondents (70%) experienced abnormal uterine involution. After being given postpartum exercise, the number of respondents experiencing normal uterine involution increased to 7 people (70%). Meanwhile, after oxytocin massage, 6 respondents (60%) showed normal uterine involution conditions. The findings suggest that both postpartum exercise and oxytocin massage significantly facilitate the acceleration of uterine involution. This effectiveness is statistically supported by a significance value of (p < 0.05), confirming that these non-pharmacological interventions are viable methods for enhancing postpartum recovery. However, postpartum gymnastics has been shown to provide more optimal results than oxytocin massage. Therefore, these two interventions are recommended to be implemented routinely in postpartum care as an effort to accelerate the process of uterine involution and prevent complications.

Abstract

Demam dan sembelit merupakan masalah kesehatan yang sering terjadi pada anak dan umum dijumpai di masyarakat pedesaan, yang kerap ditangani dengan cara tradisional tanpa didukung edukasi kesehatan yang memadai. Di Desa Paya Benua, keterbatasan akses informasi kesehatan berpotensi menyebabkan penanganan demam dan sembelit pada anak yang kurang tepat dan berisiko terhadap kesehatan. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan ibu dalam edukasi kesehatan komplementer terkait penanganan tradisional demam dan sembelit pada anak. Kegiatan ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Juni 2025 di ruang pertemuan Kantor Desa Paya Benua dengan melibatkan 15 ibu beserta anaknya. Metodologi kegiatan meliputi penyuluhan kesehatan, diskusi interaktif, demonstrasi penanganan tradisional yang aman, serta evaluasi pre-test dan post-test. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pemahaman peserta mengenai penanganan demam yang tepat, penggunaan terapi tradisional secara aman seperti kompres hangat dan baluran bawang merah, serta pemanfaatan bahan alami tinggi serat untuk mengatasi sembelit pada anak. Peserta juga menunjukkan peningkatan kesadaran terhadap tanda bahaya yang memerlukan rujukan ke fasilitas kesehatan. Kegiatan ini menyimpulkan bahwa edukasi kesehatan komplementer efektif dalam meningkatkan pengetahuan ibu dan mendorong praktik penanganan tradisional yang lebih aman pada anak. Edukasi berkelanjutan berbasis masyarakat direkomendasikan untuk memperkuat upaya promotif dan preventif kesehatan anak di wilayah pedesaan.

Abstract

Breast engorgement is a common problem among postpartum mothers, especially primigravida, which can cause pain, swelling, and hinder the breastfeeding process. Conventional management such as warm compresses often provides only temporary relief, thus alternative therapies that are more effective and natural are needed. Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) contains flavonoids, polyphenols, and cocoa butter with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and emollient properties. This study aimed to determine the effect of cocoa cream on reducing breast engorgement in primigravida postpartum mothers. This research employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group approach. A total of 36 primigravida postpartum mothers were recruited and divided into two groups: the intervention group (cocoa cream) and the control group (warm compresses). Measurements were conducted on days 1, 3, 5, and 7 using breast circumference measurement and the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain. Data were analyzed using Paired t-test and Independent t-test with a significance level of p<0.05. Independent t-test results showed no significant differences at pretest (p=0.674) and day 3 (p=0.068). However, significant differences were observed from day 5 (p=0.003) and became more pronounced on day 7 (p=0.000), with the intervention group demonstrating greater reduction in pain and swelling compared to the control group. Cocoa cream was more effective than warm compresses in reducing breast engorgement among primigravida postpartum mothers, particularly after the fifth day postpartum. Cocoa cream may be recommended as a safe, natural, and non-invasive complementary therapy to support successful breastfeeding.
