Abstract

Low levels of knowledge about Antenatal Care (ANC) among pregnant women contribute to reduced participation in antenatal visits. Adequate knowledge is expected to strongly motivate pregnant women to take care of themselves and their pregnancies by adhering to the advice provided by antenatal care providers. This, in turn, helps ensure a healthy pregnancy and the delivery of a healthy baby. Objective: This study aims to examine the relationship between pregnant women's knowledge about ANC and their antenatal visit behavior. Methods: This research employed a descriptive quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of 104 respondents, selected through accidental sampling. The variables analyzed included pregnant women's knowledge about ANC, their antenatal visit behavior, and family support. Results: The highest proportion of respondents demonstrated good knowledge about ANC (95.2%). A majority also exhibited good antenatal visit behavior (78.8%), and most received moderate family support (83.7%). Conclusion: The study findings indicate a positive relationship between pregnant women's knowledge of ANC and their antenatal visit behavior at the Karang Kitri Public Health Center in Bekasi City, with a generally favorable outcome.

Abstract

Background: Loneliness among the elderly is a critical public health concern associated with adverse mental and physical health outcomes. In Indonesia, rapid urbanization and shifting family structures may exacerbate this issue, yet data on its prevalence at the primary healthcare level remain limited. Objective: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of loneliness and identify key demographic correlates among community-dwelling elderly in the working area. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted from March to June 2024. Using consecutive sampling, 109 elderly participants aged ≥60 years were enrolled. Data were collected using the validated Indonesian version of the UCLA Loneliness Scale (Version 3) and a structured demographic questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and frequency distributions were used for data analysis. Results: The study revealed that 74.3% of participants experienced mild loneliness, while 16.5% reported no loneliness, 8.3% had moderate loneliness, and 0.9% experienced severe loneliness. Significant demographic correlates included female gender (72.5%), age 60-69 years (78.9%), elementary education level (47.7%), unemployment status (69.7%), widowhood (51.4%), and low income (<IDR 1,500,000; 87.2%). Conclusion: Mild loneliness is prevalent among the elderly in this community, with distinct demographic correlates. These findings emphasize the need for targeted, community-based psychosocial interventions integrated into primary healthcare services to address loneliness among vulnerable elderly populations.
