Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that has long-term impacts on the quality of human resources and is closely related to maternal health during pregnancy. Antenatal care (ANC) serves as an important promotive and preventive strategy to reduce the risk of stunting; however, pregnant women’s active participation in utilizing ANC services remains a challenge, particularly at the primary health care level. This study aims to analyze the relationship between pregnant women’s knowledge about stunting and their active participation in ANC at the Saritani Community Health Center. This research employed a quantitative analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of all pregnant women who attended ANC services, with a sample of 60 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire measuring knowledge of stunting and ANC attendance behavior. Data analysis was conducted using univariate and bivariate methods, with the Chi-square test applied to examine the relationship between variables. The results showed a significant association between knowledge of stunting and ANC participation (p < 0.05). Pregnant women with higher knowledge levels were more likely to attend ANC regularly. In conclusion, improving knowledge about stunting among pregnant women is a key strategy to enhance ANC utilization and support early prevention efforts.

Abstract

Nausea and vomiting are common symptoms experienced during early pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, and can adversely affect maternal comfort, nutritional intake, and overall well-being. In primary health care settings, these symptoms are often managed with pharmacological treatments; however, such approaches may raise concerns regarding safety, potential side effects, and accessibility for pregnant women. Therefore, there is increasing interest in non-pharmacological interventions that are safer and more practical. One alternative method is lemon aromatherapy (Citrus limon), which is believed to reduce nausea and vomiting by stimulating the olfactory system and promoting a relaxing effect. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of lemon aromatherapy in decreasing the frequency of nausea and vomiting among first-trimester pregnant women diagnosed with emesis gravidarum at the Rum Balibunga Community Health Center. The research applied a pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest approach. A total of 30 pregnant women in their first trimester were selected through purposive sampling. The intervention involved inhalation of lemon aromatherapy over a specified duration. Data on the frequency of nausea and vomiting were collected before and after the intervention using a structured observation instrument. The data were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics, with the Wilcoxon signed-rank test employed to determine differences between pre- and post-intervention results. The findings revealed a significant reduction in nausea and vomiting frequency after the intervention. Overall, lemon aromatherapy proved to be an effective, safe, and practical non-pharmacological option to support antenatal care services.

Abstract

Postpartum mothers’ understanding of the benefits of vitamin A plays a crucial role in the effectiveness of postpartum vitamin A supplementation programs. Vitamin A contributes to maternal immune function, supports visual health, and enhances the vitamin A content of breast milk, which is essential for infant health. Despite its importance, mothers’ knowledge regarding the benefits of vitamin A during the postpartum period remains inconsistent, indicating the need for more effective health education strategies. One approach that has the potential to improve comprehension among postpartum mothers is the use of audiovisual educational media. This study aimed to examine the effect of audiovisual media on postpartum mothers’ knowledge of the benefits of vitamin A at Ome Inpatient Primary Health Center. A quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach was employed. The study sample consisted of 30 postpartum mothers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured knowledge questionnaire administered before and after the audiovisual education intervention. Data analysis included univariate analysis and bivariate analysis using the paired t-test. The findings demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in postpartum mothers’ knowledge following the audiovisual intervention. Mean knowledge scores increased markedly, accompanied by a shift in knowledge levels from poor and moderate categories to good. Statistical testing confirmed a significant difference between pre-intervention and post-intervention knowledge scores. In conclusion, audiovisual media have a significant positive effect on improving postpartum mothers’ knowledge of the benefits of vitamin A. This educational approach can be considered an effective and practical method for postpartum health education in primary healthcare settings.

Abstract

Background: The second stage of labor is a critical phase associated with risks of maternal and neonatal complications if it lasts too long. Nonpharmacological interventions such as the gymball method have the potential to accelerate labor progress by optimizing the position and mobilization of the mother in labor, but contextual evidence in primary health care facilities in Indonesia is still limited. Objective: This study aims to analyze the effect of the gymball method on accelerating the second stage of labor in laboring mothers at the Mananggu Community Health Center. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a posttest-only control group approach. The sample consisted of 30 laboring women divided into an intervention group (gymball) and a control group (standard care). The dependent variable was the duration of the second stage of labor. Data were collected using observation sheets and partographs, then analyzed using an independent t-test. Results: The average duration of the second stage of labor in the gymball group was significantly shorter than that in the control group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The gymball method was proven to be effective in accelerating the second stage of labor. This intervention is safe, low-cost, and feasible to be implemented as part of midwifery care at community health centers to improve the quality of normal delivery services.

Abstract

Stunting, a major public health issue, is often caused by prolonged nutritional deficiencies during early life. Research shows that maternal nutritional status before conception plays a crucial role in child growth outcomes, but this phase is often overlooked in stunting prevention. The pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) is a key indicator of maternal nutrition and may influence a child's linear growth. This study aimed to explore the relationship between maternal pre-pregnancy BMI and stunting in children under five years old in the Soasio Primary Health Center, Tidore Islands City. A cross-sectional analytical observational study was conducted with 50 mother-child pairs selected via total sampling. Maternal pre-pregnancy BMI was obtained from health records, while child stunting was assessed using height-for-age or length-for-age Z-scores based on WHO growth standards. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis, Chi-square tests, and logistic regression. The results revealed a significant correlation between maternal pre-pregnancy BMI and child stunting. Children born to underweight mothers were more likely to experience stunting compared to those born to mothers with a normal BMI. No significant correlation was found between overweight or obesity and stunting. The study concludes that maternal undernutrition before pregnancy is strongly linked to stunting and highlights the need for better nutritional screening and interventions for women of reproductive age.
