Abstract

Stunting is a condition where there is a growth disorder in a child caused by a lack of intake of both macronutrients and micronutrients. A mother is an individual who is very close to a child regarding the growth and development of the child. This study aimed to determine the relationship between mother’s knowledge and the incidence of stunting in children at the Bromo Public Health Center, Medan Denai, Indonesia. Cross-sectional analytic observational study. A total of 62 respondents who were mothers of children aged 36-60 months were included in this study. Data analysis was carried out with the help of SPSS software in a univariate and bivariate to determine the relationship between mother’s knowledge and the incidence of stunting. The majority of children with stunting nutritional status have mothers with poor knowledge regarding nutritional intake. In conclusion, there is a statistical relationship between the mother's knowledge and the incidence of stunting in children, with p <0.05.

Abstract

Free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are the cause of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular and inflammatory. The presence of an increase in the number of free radicals and excess ROS production in the body can cause an imbalance of the immune system. Therefore, additional antioxidants are needed from outside the body. During this time there are several antioxidant synthesis drugs such as (Butyl Hydroxy Anisole) BHA and (Butyl Hydroxyl Toluene) BHT. But in its use, this drug causes side effects. Therefore, it is necessary to source antioxidants that have no side effects if consumed. PRP is a product produced from fresh whole blood that contains components of Red blood cells, White blood cells, Platelets, and Plasma. Plasma contains organic and inorganic molecules and ions wherein abundant conditions serve to transport other substances. To determine the ability of PRP as an antioxidant, fractionation, and bioactivity tests for free radical capture of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrilhydrazil (DPPH) and color decay tests at 2,2'-azino-bis-[3-ethylbenzotiazolin sulfonate] (ABTS) in vivo.. Based on the results of this study, PRP has antioxidant activity that increases along with the decrease in THE concentration of PRP with an antioxidant activity value of 10.57% with the DPPH test and 5.85% with the ABTS test at the lowest concentration (6.25 μg / mL). IC50 averages 190.29 μg/mL with DPPH test and 126.60 μg/mL with the ABTS test. The results of this study are an indication that PRP can be used as a treatment therapy related to the anti-oxidant activity

Abstract

Abstrak Limbah bahan berbahaya dan beracun (B3) yang dihasilkan oleh fasilitas pelayanan kesehatan hanya berkisar 10–20% dari total limbah, namun memiliki potensi risiko tinggi terhadap kesehatan manusia dan lingkungan apabila tidak dikelola sesuai standar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi pengelolaan limbah B3 di Rumah Sakit Umum Royal Prima Medan tahun 2024 berdasarkan aspek input, proses, dan output. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan melibatkan enam informan yang dipilih secara purposive. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi langsung, dan studi dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan analisis konten kualitatif dengan dukungan triangulasi sumber, metode, dan waktu untuk menjamin keabsahan data. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa aspek input secara umum telah memadai, meliputi ketersediaan sumber daya manusia yang kompeten, sarana prasarana yang cukup, serta dukungan anggaran. Pada aspek proses, pengelolaan limbah telah dilaksanakan sesuai dengan standar operasional prosedur dengan tingkat kesesuaian mencapai 97,6%. Meskipun demikian, masih ditemukan beberapa permasalahan, antara lain ketidakkonsistenan dalam pemilahan limbah, keterbatasan kapasitas penyimpanan sementara pada unit dengan volume limbah tinggi, pelabelan kendaraan pengangkut yang belum lengkap, serta ketersediaan alat pelindung diri (APD) di area penyimpanan yang belum optimal. Temuan ini menunjukkan perlunya peningkatan pengawasan, optimalisasi sarana prasarana, serta penguatan kepatuhan terhadap standar operasional guna meningkatkan efektivitas dan keberlanjutan pengelolaan limbah B3 di fasilitas pelayanan kesehatan.

Abstract Hazardous and toxic waste generated by healthcare facilities constitutes only about 10–20% of total waste but poses significant risks to human health and the environment if not properly managed. This study aimed to evaluate the management of hazardous and toxic waste at Royal Prima General Hospital, Medan, in 2024 based on input, process, and output aspects. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach involving six informants selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and document review, and were analyzed using qualitative content analysis supported by source, method, and time triangulation to ensure data validity. The findings indicate that the input aspect is generally adequate, including the availability of competent human resources, sufficient infrastructure, and financial support. The process aspect shows a high level of compliance with standard operating procedures, with an overall conformity rate of 97.6%. However, several critical issues were identified, including inconsistent waste segregation practices, limited temporary storage capacity in high-volume units, incomplete labeling of waste transport vehicles, and suboptimal availability of personal protective equipment in storage areas. These findings highlight the need for strengthened supervision, improved facility capacity, and stricter adherence to operational standards to enhance the effectiveness and sustainability of hazardous waste management in healthcare settings.
