Abstract

Background: Exclusive breastfeeding is essential for supporting optimal infant growth and development, as breast milk provides complete nutrients and enhances the immune system. However, many postpartum mothers experience difficulties in breast milk production due to physical and psychological factors. Oxytocin stimulation through massage is considered a potential method to improve milk flow. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of oxytocin massage on milk production among postpartum mothers in the working area of Andalas Padang Health Center. Methods: This study used a quantitative approach with a pretest–posttest experimental design. The research was conducted in the working area of Andalas Padang Health Center with a sample of 30 postpartum mothers selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected through interviews and observations, and analyzed using univariate and bivariate analysis with a paired t-test to assess differences before and after the intervention. Results: The findings showed that 90% of respondents experienced improved milk production after receiving oxytocin massage. The t-test results indicated a significant difference in milk production before and after the intervention (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Oxytocin massage is effective in improving milk production in postpartum mothers and can support the success of exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease with increasing prevalence among the elderly. However, DM self-management remains low due to physical and cognitive limitations and limited access to health information. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of nurse-based counseling in improving DM self-management among elderly patients in the working area of Dayeuhkolot Health Center, Bandung Regency. A quasi-experimental study with a one-group pretest-posttest design involved 46 elderly patients with Type 2 diabetes selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using the Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ) before and after a four-week nurse-based counseling intervention. Univariate analysis used frequency distributions and means, while bivariate analysis used the Paired t-test. The mean self-management score increased from 52.3 (SD=6.8) before the intervention to 74.6 (SD=5.4) after the intervention. The Paired t-test showed a significant difference in self-management scores before and after the intervention (p=0.000; α<0.05). Thus, nurse-based counseling was effective in improving DM self-management among elderly patients. Integration of nurse-based counseling into routine Chronic Disease Management Program (Prolanis) activities at health centers is recommended to support sustainable self-management.
