Abstract

Child malnutrition remains a local health concern in Karrang Village, Enrekang Regency. This study examined factors related to abnormal nutritional status among toddlers aged 12–59 months, focusing on supplementary feeding, infectious disease history, maternal nutrition knowledge, and low birth weight. An analytical observational study with a matched case-control design was carried out from January to March 2026. From 79 eligible toddlers, 48 were included: 24 cases with abnormal nutritional status and 24 age- and sex-matched controls with normal nutritional status. Information was obtained through mother interviews, anthropometric assessment, and review of maternal-child health books, growth monitoring cards, and Posyandu records. Data were analyzed using Chi-square or Fisher’s exact tests, odds ratios, and 95% confidence intervals. A previous infectious disease was significantly associated with abnormal nutritional status (OR = 5.92; 95% CI: 1.387–25.300; p = 0.026). Poor maternal knowledge and low birth weight indicated elevated but statistically non-significant risks, whereas inadequate supplementary feeding showed no association. Infectious disease history was the dominant factor linked to abnormal toddler nutritional status. Therefore, infection control, timely illness management, and maternal nutrition education need to be intensified.

Abstract

Pharmaceutical dispensing services serve as an indicator of medical service quality, particularly regarding patient safety and satisfaction. At Nene Mallomo Regional General Hospital (RSUD), there is a discrepancy between the 2024 target of 95% and the actual achievement of 85%, indicating that service quality is currently inadequate. This quality gap has the potential to impact patient satisfaction levels. This study aims to analyze the relationship between medication dispensing waiting times, service quality, and outpatient satisfaction at Nene Mallomo RSUD, Sidenreng Rappang Regency. The study employed an observational analytic design. A sample of 98 respondents was determined using Slovin's formula with a 10% margin of error. Data were collected through surveys and observations, followed by analysis using univariate methods and the bivariate Chi-square test. The results indicate a significant relationship between waiting time and patient satisfaction (p = 0.001) however, no significant relationship was found between service quality and patient satisfaction (p = 0.250). This study provides a valuable basis for hospital management to evaluate and optimize medication dispensing services.
