Abstract

Adolescents often show gaps between their attitudes and practices regarding sexual and reproductive health, which can affect their overall wellbeing and decision-making. Understanding these correlations between attitudes and behaviors is critical to developing effective educational interventions and health policies to improve adolescent health outcomes. This study aims to identify the relationship between attitudes and adolescent practices regarding sexual and reproductive health. This study is quantitative. It uses two analytical tests, namely descriptive analysis to see the distribution of variables and a correlation statistical test to see the relationship between variables. Respondents of 179 students were randomly taken at each level. The questionnaire was distributed using a Google form to measure variables. Most respondents were female, 60.9% (n=109), with most being 16 years old, 27.9% (n=50). Grade XII students filled out the questionnaire the most, 44.1% (n=79). A statistically significant relationship was found between adolescents' attitudes and practices regarding sexual and reproductive health (p=0.04). Based on these findings, adolescent sexual and reproductive health education programs can be designed more effectively to adjust to the content and attitude approach according to their needs. The educational program focuses on behavior change with topics relevant to adolescents, using interactive methods, group dynamics, and peer approaches. With the selection of the right approach, it is hoped that it can increase knowledge, develop attitudes, and ultimately direct positive behavior in adolescents towards sexual and reproductive health.

Abstract

Hypertension management generally involves the use of pharmacological drugs. However, pharmacological effects are unavoidable and have the potential to disrupt the quality of life. Therefore, efforts to find alternative non-pharmacological therapies are very important. One of the non-pharmacological techniques that has potential is the deep breathing relaxation technique. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of deep breathing techniques in an effort to reduce blood pressure in hypertension sufferers. This research uesd a quasi-experimental research design. The sample in this study was 68 participants divided into 34 participants in the experimental group and 34 participants in the control group. The results showed a significant effect between the pretest variable and the posttest systolic value in the intervention group and between the pretest variable and the posttest diastolic value in the intervention group. Although deep breathing relaxation techniques cannot replace pharmacological treatment completely, they can be beneficial additional therapy in managing hypertension holistically. Proper education about deep breathing relaxation techniques needs to be given to hypertension sufferers in order to get maximum benefits. In addition, this article contributes to public education efforts to increase awareness of deep breathing relaxation techniques as a preventive measure against hypertension. Future research is recommended to combine deep breathing relaxation techniques with other techniques or to use them alongside pharmacological treatment.

Abstract

Background: Early-childhood social-emotional development (SED) is strongly related to lifelong well-being and academic development and mental health resilience. The absence of tools that are suitably culturally and linguistically validated for assessing SED in Indonesia nevertheless limits early opportunities for identifying developmental concerns. The objective of this study was to translate and validate the Ages and Stages Questionnaire: Social-Emotional (ASQ:SE) into Bahasa Indonesia so that it can be reliably and validly used in assessing SED for Indonesian children. Purpose: this study aimed to translate, cultural adaptation, and the validation of the ASQ:SE for Indonesian children 6 to 60 months of age, thus ensuring the soundness of any psychometric properties when applied in the local context. Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 350 parents or caregivers of children aged 6–60 months from community health centers and early childhood education programs across urban and rural areas of Java, Indonesia. The ASQ:SE was translated forward and back, reviewed by experts, and subjected to cognitive debriefing. Psychometric properties were measured by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) for its construct validity, using Cronbach’s alpha for internal consistency, an intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) for test-retest reliability, and known-groups validity to distinguish typically developing children from those with clinician-identified developmental delays. Results: The model fit from the CFA was acceptable (χ²/df = 2.15, CFI = 0.91; TLI = 0.89, RMSEA = 0.06). Internal consistency was very high (α = 0.86), and the test-retest reliability revealed very high stability (ICC = 0.89, 95% CI = 0.85–0.92). Known-groups validity established that the scores were significantly different (t = 5.62, p < 0.001) between typically developing children and those with developmental delays, confirming the discriminative ability of the tool. Conclusion: The Indonesian version of ASQ:SE is marked by reliability and validity that are strong enough to render it a culturally appropriate instrument for assessing the SED of Indonesian children. In clinical and educational settings, this can provide an avenue for building towards and supporting further developmental delay and thus child development.

Abstract

Hospitalization often triggers significant anxiety in preschool children due to their developmental vulnerability, separation from caregivers, and exposure to unfamiliar medical environments. If left unaddressed, this anxiety can result in both short- and long-term psychological and behavioral issues. Storytelling-based nursing communication has emerged as a promising intervention to help children understand and cope with hospitalization; however, standardized approaches remain limited. This study aims to identify and synthesize existing evidence on the standards of storytelling-based nursing communication for reducing hospitalization-related anxiety in preschool children. Using a descriptive analytical approach, a systematic search was conducted across PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and CINAHL for peer-reviewed studies published between 2020 and 2025. Eligible studies included nurse-led storytelling interventions targeting hospitalized preschoolers. Both qualitative and quantitative research was reviewed and critically appraised. The review identified fourteen relevant studies. Storytelling interventions were consistently effective in reducing anxiety, particularly when implemented using standardized methods such as structured narratives, visual aids (e.g., puppets, books, digital media), therapeutic play, and nurse communication training. These approaches enhanced emotional expression, improved nurse-child interaction, and fostered more positive hospital experiences. In conclusion, standardized storytelling-based nursing communication is an effective strategy for alleviating anxiety in hospitalized preschool children. Its broader implementation in pediatric nursing practice requires further research, training, and policy development.

Abstract

Spiritual care is a vital component of holistic nursing, particularly for patients with chronic and life-limiting illnesses. It addresses existential suffering and supports emotional, psychological, and spiritual well-being. This review aims to identify and synthesize evidence-based standards for spiritual nursing care in patients with chronic illnesses, particularly those in palliative care settings. A comprehensive literature review was conducted using six databases PubMed, ProQuest, DOAJ, ScienceDirect, Garuda, and Google Scholar focusing on peer-reviewed articles published between 2018 and 2024. Articles were selected based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria to ensure relevance and quality. The findings highlight several key standards in spiritual nursing care: acknowledging and respecting patients' spiritual beliefs, offering compassionate emotional and psychological support, and fostering meaning and hope at the end of life. The literature consistently emphasizes the need for an individualized, culturally sensitive, and holistic approach. Integrating spiritual care into routine palliative nursing practice has been shown to improve coping, reduce distress, and enhance overall quality of life for chronically ill patients. Addressing the spiritual needs of patients with chronic illness is essential for delivering comprehensive, patient-centered care. Developing evidence-based spiritual care standards can enhance the effectiveness of palliative care and support patients in achieving peace, meaning, and well-being.

Abstract

Background: Anemia remains a critical public health issue among adolescents, particularly in developing countries such as Indonesia. Poor nutritional knowledge and limited awareness of anemia-related symptoms, etiology, and prevention exacerbate this condition. Mobile health (mHealth) technologies have the potential to address these gaps through accessible, engaging, and scalable education tools. This study aimed to validate the content of AneMia_Prev®, a mobile application designed as an educational tool to enhance adolescent knowledge on the prevention of anemia. Methods: A Delphi technique was employed involving two rounds of expert panel review. Twelve experts with clinical and academic backgrounds in nursing and public health evaluated the content of AneMia_Prev® based on relevance, clarity, layout, illustrations, language, and motivational features. The Content Validity Index (CVI) and modified kappa statistics were used to assess inter-rater agreement and content adequacy. Data were collected through an online survey using a 17-item validated questionnaire. Results: In the first round, all 17 items achieved excellent content validity with I-CVI values ranging from 0.87 to 1.00 and kappa values above 0.87. Following minor expert recommendations, a revised version of the application was re-evaluated, resulting in unanimous ratings of excellence (I-CVI = 1.00; kappa > 0.92 for all items). Experts emphasized the application’s innovation, relevance, and potential to promote anemia awareness among adolescents. Conclusion: AneMia_Prev® demonstrated excellent content validity and is considered suitable for educational interventions targeting anemia prevention among adolescents. Future research is recommended to assess semantic validation, cognitive impact, and learning outcomes among adolescent users to further refine the tool and evaluate its effectiveness in real-world settings.

Abstract

This study aimed to enhance knowledge of earthquake preparedness and practice among community members in rural areas of Indonesia. In the Pacific Ring of Fire, Indonesia faces significant tectonic activity, necessitating disaster risk management. National efforts and individual involvement are crucial. However, disaster training in rural communities is limited due to limited resource allocation. The study utilized a quasi-experimental two-group pretest-posttest design in rural areas in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia, from October 2023 to January 2024. The study sample consisted of volunteers with minimum experience of at least 1 year, aged 18 years old, who were literate and willing to join in this study. The sample was selected by convenience sampling. The analysis employed a general linear model. The size was 120 for each group (240 in total). The study found that the average participant age was 27.13 (SD=3.25) years, with 52.5% having graduated from senior high school, while the control group had an average age of 26.67 4.65. The results of the analysis showed a significant interaction between groups and time spent on knowledge and practices related to earthquake preparedness. The Intervention group (IG) had a larger improvement in knowledge and practice at 2 weeks after the intervention compared to the control group (CG) ( = 5.43, p 0.001 and = 4.56, p 0.001, respectively) after correcting for confounding factors. Disaster preparedness training for volunteers in rural Indonesia effectively enhances knowledge and practice for earthquake preparedness, but further studies are needed with a more robust design and larger sample size.

Abstract

Hospitalization can be a stressful experience for preschool-aged children, primarily due to limited understanding and anxiety toward the unfamiliar hospital environment. Effective therapeutic communication is essential to help children feel safer and more comfortable during treatment. This community service activity aimed to optimize nursing communication using a storytelling approach as a strategy to reduce anxiety in hospitalized preschoolers. The program was conducted at Siti Fatimah Az-Zahra Regional General Hospital, South Sumatra Province, from March 17 to 21, 2025. It involved 15 bedside nurses in the pediatric ward and 18 hospitalized preschool-aged children. The methods included education and training for nurses on age-appropriate storytelling techniques, followed by direct application with the children. Evaluation was carried out through behavioral observation of children’s anxiety levels before and after the intervention, as well as brief interviews with nurses. The results showed a noticeable reduction in anxiety expressions among most children, such as decreased crying, fearfulness, and resistance to nursing procedures. Nurses also reported improved rapport and interaction with the children through engaging and relevant stories. In conclusion, storytelling proved to be an effective, humanistic, and applicable nursing communication method for reducing hospitalization-related anxiety in preschool children, and it has the potential to be integrated into standard pediatric nursing practices

Abstract

Women experience menopause, which is the cessation of menstruation for more than one year and the cessation of the release of the hormone’s estrogen and progesterone. The most common psychological impact of menopause is depression. Interventions that can be performed on depression include pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods. One of the non-pharmacological therapies is yoga. Yoga exercise involves the unification of body movement, breath, and mind. Most women aged >45 live in the Babakan Sari Sub-District. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of yoga exercises in reducing depression in menopausal women in the Babakan Sari Sub-District.This study uses a quasi-experimental design with one group intervention. The population of this study was women >45 years in the Babakan Sari Sub-District, totaling 3225 people. Samples were taken using purposive sampling with the inclusion criteria of menopausal women who had partners, and the exclusion criteria were menopausal women who consumed depression medication totaling 50 people. Data collection was done using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. Yoga intervention based on yoga practice SOP was given 3 times in 3 weeks. Univariate data analysis was done using percentages and bivariate using a t-test. The results showed that at the pretest, 25 people (50%) were experiencing moderate depression, 18 people (36%) met the criteria for mild depression, and 7 people (14%) met the criteria for mild depressive symptoms. Posttest results showed that 19 people (38%) had mild depression, 23 people (46%) met the criteria for mild depressive symptoms, and 8 people had no symptoms of depression (16%). The results of the t-test showed that p-value = 0.00 < a = 0.05. Thus, yoga exercises are effective in reducing depression in menopausal women. The results show that yoga exercises are effective in reducing depression because yoga exercises provide relaxation for menopausal women, with interventions given every 3 times a week for 3 weeks, increasing the effectiveness of yoga in reducing depression. Depression decreases after giving yoga exercises, so it is hoped that yoga exercises can be considered as an alternative intervention by health centers.
