Abstract

Effective family management can enhance a family's ability to cope with illness, maintain psychological stability, and support treatment outcomes. However, this has not yet been explored explicitly among families caring for children with cancer in the Province of Aceh. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of family management in caring for children with cancer, to provide a basis for designing appropriate nursing interventions to enhance family caregiving practices. This quantitative study employed a cross-sectional design, involving a total sample of 62 mothers and 30 fathers. Participants were families of children with cancer residing in various cities across Aceh Province who were receiving treatment in Banda Aceh. Data collection took place from March to April 2025. A non-probability, purposive sampling technique was employed, and quantitative data were collected using the Family Management Measure (FaMM). The results indicated that fathers reported higher scores compared to mothers across nearly all subscales of family management, including Child’s Daily Life (3.867), Condition Management Ability (3.455), Condition Management Effort (3.483), Family Life Difficulty (3.576), and View of Condition Impact (4.017). In contrast, mothers demonstrated slightly higher scores on the Parental Mutuality subscale (3.772). The results suggest that fathers tend to have a more positive perception than mothers regarding most dimensions of family management, including the child’s daily life, the ability and effort to manage the condition, and the perceived impact of the illness on family life. However, mothers showed a slightly higher perception of parental collaboration.

Abstract

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) can harm the quality of life, social, economic, and psychological aspects. The declining quality of life of adolescents with IBS will have a significant effect on the next stage of life. This study aims to identify the determinants of quality of life in adolescents with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms in public senior high schools. The design of this study was a cross-sectional study with a sample size of 344 adolescents selected by consecutive sampling. Data collection employed self-report instruments, including demographic characteristics, the IBS Symptom Severity Score (IBS-SSS), the Big Five Inventory (BFI-10), the Hopkins Symptom Checklist (HSCL-25), the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-15), and the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality of Life (IBS-QOL) scale. A multivariate analysis using multiple logistic regression shows a significant relationship between the severity of IBS symptoms, psychological distress, and somatic symptoms on the quality of life of adolescents with IBS symptoms (p-value < 0.001; < 0.001; < 0.001). From the results of the final modeling using multiple logistic regression, it is evident that somatic symptoms are the most influential determinant of the quality of life of adolescents with symptoms of IBS, with an Odds Ratio (OR) value of 0.620 (95% CI: 0.470-0.818). The Health Departments, health professionals, schools, and parents are encouraged to collaborate in designing consultation, education, intervention, and evaluation programs to manage IBS and somatic symptoms experienced by adolescents.
