Abstract

Birth support can prevent prolonged labor. The husband can carry out this support as a delivery companion. This study aims to assess the effect of the husband's role as a labor companion on the duration of labor. This research is an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design. The samples in this study were 60 pairs of mothers and their husbands who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were obtained using the observation sheet on the husband's role and partograph. The analysis used in this study was the chi-square test and logistic regression. Mothers in labor will have an increased risk of 2.85 to experience a prolonged first stage of labor if the husband does not provide sufficient support as a birth companion during labor (OR=2.8, 95% CI=1.52-5.16). Good labor companion by the husband will be able to prevent mothers from experiencing a long second stage of labor (OR = 0.34, 95% CI = 0.18-0.62). The role of a good husband as a birth companion is to maintain the expected time for the first and second stages of labor and prevent the long duration of labor.

Abstract

This study examines how an educational program combined with red betel extract salve application affects postpartum mothers' knowledge and attitudes toward perineal care, focusing on Grade 2 perineal lacerations. With 80 participants split evenly between intervention and control groups, those in the intervention group received education and salve application, leading to significantly improved knowledge and attitudes compared to the control group, which followed standard care protocols. Specifically, the mean knowledge score for the intervention group increased from 7.48 to 9.70 post-intervention, while the control group's knowledge score remained stable at 7.08 (p < 0.001). In terms of attitudes, the intervention group displayed a significantly more positive attitude, with a mean attitude score of 39.12 post-intervention, compared to the control group's score of 35.52 (p < 0.001). These results highlight the potential of educational interventions to substantially improve both knowledge and attitudes related to perineal care among postpartum mothers. These findings contribute to advancing postpartum care practices, benefiting the overall well- being of postpartum mothers during this pivotal stage of their maternal journey.

Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension, represent an increasing global health burden. In Indonesia, the prevalence of DM reaches 10.9%, while hypertension reaches 34.1%. This community engagement activity aims to enhance the knowledge and skills of Integrated Healthcare Center (IHC) cadres in early detection of NCDs, such as hypertension, and to increase community participation in prevention efforts. The community engagement activity was carried out through coordination among the outreach team, neighborhood leaders (RW), and community unit leaders (RT). The activity included the development of educational materials and training sessions for IHC cadres on blood pressure measurement skills. Evaluation showed that 85% of the 30 IHC cadre participants were able to correctly answer questions after the training. The cadres also demonstrated increased motivation and active participation in blood pressure measurement. The community engagement activity successfully achieved its goal of improving the knowledge and skills of IHC cadres in early detection of NCDs while fostering active participation in preventing non-communicable diseases. The evaluation confirmed the positive impact of this program in raising public awareness of health issues.

Abstract

Introduction: A survey conducted by the Ministry revealed that approximately 62.7% of Indonesian adolescents have engaged in sexual activity before marriage. Objective: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of the GOLTEEN application in enhancing adolescents' knowledge of sexual behavior. Methods: A pre-experimental design was utilized, with 37 students from a senior high school in Jakarta participating. Participants completed pre-test and post-test surveys to evaluate their knowledge levels before and after exposure to the GOLTEEN application. Statistical analyses, including the Wilcoxon test, were employed to determine the significance of any observed changes in knowledge. Results: The study found a statistically significant improvement in knowledge scores after the intervention (p<0.001). Participants demonstrated a substantial increase in their understanding of sexual behavior following their engagement with the GOLTEEN application. Notably, all respondents showed improvement in their knowledge levels, with no participants exhibiting a decrease in their scores. Conclusion: The findings suggest that the GOLTEEN application serves as an effective instrument for promoting sexual health education among adolescents. By harnessing web-based applications such as GOLTEEN, educators and health practitioners can disseminate critical information and elevate awareness regarding sexual behavior among youth more effectively. This underscores the significance of integrating technology-driven methodologies within public health interventions and educational programs designed to address pivotal issues related to adolescent sexual health.

Abstract

Background: Massage in children has been recognized as an effective method to stimulate growth due to its impact on neurochemical processes. One of the primary mechanisms involved is the stimulation of beta-endorphin, a neurochemical that plays a crucial role in increasing the amount and activation of the enzyme ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) in tissues. This enzyme is essential for cell growth and differentiation, contributing to optimal development in infants. Additionally, massage promotes the release of other growth hormones, further supporting physical and neurological development. Baby massage is performed through gentle rubs on the skin's surface, which not only enhances growth but also provides comfort, improves circulation, and strengthens the emotional bond between mother and baby. Purpose: This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of providing pocketbooks as an educational tool to enhance maternal knowledge and ability in performing baby massage. By improving maternal skills and awareness regarding baby massage techniques, this intervention sought to maximize the potential benefits of baby massage in infant development. Methods: This study utilized a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, specifically employing a non-equivalent control group research method. The research was conducted at Rini Hartini’s Midwife Practice Place and involved a total of 34 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The respondents were divided into an intervention group and a control group. The intervention group received educational pocketbooks and was assessed on their knowledge and ability to perform baby massage before and after the intervention. Data collection was carried out using structured questionnaires and a skills checklist to measure both knowledge and practical ability. Results: The findings revealed a significant improvement in maternal knowledge and ability in the intervention group compared to the control group. Pre-test and post-test assessments demonstrated a statistically significant difference in the scores, with a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05). This indicates that the intervention, in the form of providing pocketbooks, had a positive effect on increasing maternal competence in baby massage. Conclusion: Based on the results, it can be concluded that the provision of pocketbooks as an educational tool effectively enhances maternal knowledge and practical skills in performing baby massage. The study findings highlight the importance of accessible educational resources in improving maternal childcare practices. The outcomes of this research are expected to contribute to further studies and interventions aimed at optimizing infant growth and development through informed parental involvement. The research findings have been published in accredited national journals, ensuring the dissemination of valuable knowledge to a broader audience in the medical and child health sectors.

Abstract

Background: Gender inequality significantly affects women's reproductive health and overall well-being. Midwives play a crucial role in addressing these issues through gender-equitable practices. Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of gender equality-based learning programs in shaping the character of undergraduate midwifery students. Methods: A cross-sectional study involving 298 midwifery students in DKI Jakarta was conducted. Data collection used sequential sampling and a validated questionnaire distributed via Google Forms. Logistic regression analyzed associations between students' characteristics and gender-equitable character. Results: Students with poor gender knowledge were 30 times more likely to exhibit gender-inequity characters (OR=30.18, 95% CI=11.40-79.91). Negative attitudes towards gender concepts increased the risk of gender-inequity characters by 44% (OR=1.44, 95% CI=1.05-1.98). A learning environment lacking gender equity doubled this risk (OR=2.83, 95% CI=1.98-4.04). Conclusion: Incorporating gender-equitable concepts and practices into midwifery curricula is essential for developing gender-equitable midwives. This integration could reduce gender disparities and improve health outcomes.

Abstract

Background: Maternal and child health (MCH) is crucial for public health, especially in low- and middle-income countries like Indonesia. Despite improvements in healthcare infrastructure, challenges remain in reducing maternal and neonatal mortality rates, with low birth weight (LBW) posing a significant concern. Previous research has largely examined individual factors, such as maternal age, parity, or nutritional status, in isolation. To date, there has been no comprehensive analysis integrating the various determinants of LBW within the Indonesian context.Purpose: This study aimed to comprehensively analyze factors associated with LBW incidence in Indonesia to inform sustainable MCH strategies.Methods: A cross-sectional study design was used to analyze data from 420 newborns and their mothers. A structured questionnaire and medical record reviews were used to collect data on maternal characteristics, antenatal care attendance, birth outcomes, and infant characteristics. Data were obtained from maternal and child health reports collected by primary health centers and hospitals under the Ministry of Health between 2021 and 2023. Statistical analyses, including bivariate Chi-square tests and multivariable logistic regression, were conducted to identify factors associated with LBW incidence.Results: The prevalence of LBW among newborns was 34.3%. Significant associations were found between LBW and maternal anemia (OR = 1.53; 95% CI = 1.16–2.03), irregular antenatal care attendance (OR 11.9; 95% CI 8.17–17.32), multiparity (OR = 0.61; 95% CI = 0.43–0.88), and preterm birth (OR = 11.22; 95% CI = 7.55–16.68). Primiparous mothers and full-term infants were less likely to experience LBW. Among the associated factors, irregular antenatal care visits and preterm birth emerged as the most dominant risk factors. No significant associations were observed with maternal complications, chronic diseases, infant gender, mode of delivery, or maternal age.Conclusion: Targeted interventions addressing maternal anemia, improving access to and adherence with antenatal care, and preventing preterm births are critical strategies for reducing LBW in Indonesia. The findings in this study underscore the need to improve maternal nutrition and encourage pregnant women to attend regular antenatal care visits.
