Abstract

Introduction: Monitoring children’s growth and development is essential, yet many parents face barriers in accessing reliable health education. While online learning offers potential solutions, evidence of its effectiveness remains limited, particularly in developing countries. This study assessed the impact of a pediatrician-led online session, consisting of a brief presentation and interactive discussion via Zoom, conducted in collaboration with a community clinic, on parental knowledge regarding child growth and health monitoring. Methods: A single-group pretest-posttest design was conducted with 77 eligible participants from a publicly accessible webinar in collaboration with a private clinic in Bantul, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The intervention included a pediatrician-led session covering growth milestones, health indicators, and monitoring techniques. A ten-item online questionnaire was developed and validated for content by four experts using the Content Validity Index (CVI), resulting in an average S-CVI of 0.95. Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test and effect size analysis were performed. Results: Participants’ knowledge significantly increased following the intervention (p = 0.001) with a medium to large effect size (r = 0.52). There was an improvement in participants’ knowledge scores from a median of 70 (IQR 60–80) to 100 (IQR 85–100). No significant differences were found across demographic variables such as age, gender, or occupation (p > 0.05). Conclusion: This study demonstrated a positive shift in parental knowledge after a brief Zoom-based session. The findings underscore the potential of accessible online education to initiate broader community involvement in child health monitoring. Sustained impact will require integration with ongoing education, system-level support, and attention to barriers such as digital access and health literacy.

Abstract

Introduction: Hospital pharmacy services face increasing operational complexity, requiring efficient, adaptive, and data-driven systems. Integrating Lean Thinking (LT) and Visual Management (VM) into Hospital Information Systems (HIS) offers strategic potential to enhance workflow transparency, reduce waste, and improve service quality. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of LT–VM within HIS on service effectiveness, measured through prescription response times, and process efficiency, measured using the Value Added Ratio (VAR) derived from Value Stream Mapping (VSM). Methods: A quantitative case study was conducted in the outpatient pharmacy unit of PKU Muhammadiyah Wonosobo Hospital, Central Java, Indonesia. Secondary data of 55,767 outpatient prescriptions were analyzed (17,373 pre-implementation and 38,394 post-implementation), while primary data were collected through direct workflow observation using VSM. Statistical analysis used the Mann–Whitney U test to assess pre-post differences, while process efficiency was examined through VAR calculations for compounded and non-compounded prescriptions. Results: Non-compounded prescriptions showed a significant improvement in response time (p = 0.005), despite a 2.5-fold increase in prescription volume, indicating sustained system performance. Notably, unlike most Lean studies that emphasize waiting-time reduction, the present findings demonstrate that LT–VM–HIS integration primarily contributed to maintaining workflow stability under increased workload. Compounded prescriptions exhibited no significant change (p = 0.424), although reduced variability suggested improved consistency. VSM results showed VAR of 40.08% for non-compounded and 51% for compounded prescriptions, highlighting persistent bottlenecks during workflow transitions and the limited influence of digital interventions on labor-intensive manual tasks. Conclusion: The integration of LT–VM within HIS enhanced process consistency, reduced variability, and maintained operational performance under increased workload. However, manual compounding tasks limited efficiency gains, underscoring the need for hospital-wide Lean digitalization and synchronized scheduling to balance demand and capacity. These findings support the broader application of Lean-based digital transformation to achieve resilient and patient-centered healthcare systems.
