Abstract

Active labor in the first stage of childbirth is a phase that requires effective uterine contractions and adequate energy to ensure an optimal labor process. One non-pharmacological approach that can be used is the administration of date juice, as it contains simple carbohydrates and various nutrients that may support uterine contractions. This study aims to analyze the effect of date juice administration on the duration of active-phase first-stage labor among women giving birth at Gunung Batu Besar Public Health Center. The study employed a quasi-experimental design with a posttest-only control group design. The sample consisted of 36 women in labor, comprising 18 respondents in the intervention group and 18 in the control group, selected using purposive sampling. The intervention group received date juice during the active phase of the first stage of labor, while the control group received standard childbirth care. Data were analyzed using the Independent Samples T-Test after the normality assumption was met. The results showed that the mean labor duration in the intervention group was 157.56 ± 79.20 minutes, shorter than that in the control group at 208.61 ± 83.08 minutes. However, the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.068). Although not statistically significant, date juice administration showed a tendency to clinically shorten labor duration, indicating its potential as a safe and easily applicable complementary nutritional intervention. Further studies with larger sample sizes are needed to confirm the effectiveness of this intervention.

Abstract

Miscarriage is one of the complications of first-trimester pregnancy that remains a significant cause of maternal morbidity and is influenced by various factors, one of which is maternal age. Although reproductive age is often associated with an increased risk of miscarriage, research findings across various regions still show inconsistencies. This study aims to analyze the relationship between maternal age and the incidence of abortion during the first trimester of pregnancy at the South Bolaang Mongondow Regional General Hospital (BolSel). The study employed a quantitative analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. The study sample consisted of 30 pregnant women in their first trimester, selected using total sampling. Data were obtained through a review of medical records and observation forms, then analyzed univariately and bivariately using the Contingency Coefficient test with a 95% confidence level. The results showed that the majority of respondents were aged 20–35 years (73.3%) and experienced anemia (93.3%), hypotension (53.3%), and spontaneous abortion (70.0%). Bivariate analysis results showed no significant association between maternal age and the incidence of abortion in the first trimester of pregnancy (p=0.392; r=0.244). These findings indicate that maternal age is not a major factor associated with the incidence of abortion in the study population, whereas other clinical factors such as anemia, hypotension, and a history of abortion are believed to play a greater role. The results of this study underscore the importance of comprehensive antenatal screening that focuses not only on maternal age but also on maternal clinical conditions to support the prevention of miscarriage and improve the quality of maternal health care.
