Abstract

Introduction: Anemia is a nutritional problem worldwide, including in Indonesia. Adolescent girls are more prone to anemia, which can have both short-term and long-term negative impacts on their health, productivity, and readiness to become future mothers. The World Health Organization (2023) reported that the global prevalence of anemia among women aged 15–49 years is 30%. The North Sumatra Provincial Health Office (2023) stated that the prevalence of anemia among adolescent girls is 65.32%. Objective: To determine the factors associated with anemia risk behavior among adolescent girls at SMK Pariwisata Imelda Medan. Materials and Methods: This study employed a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of all female students in grades X and XI, totaling 406 individuals. A sample of 201 respondents was selected using stratified random sampling. Data analysis was conducted using univariate and bivariate analysis with the Chi-Square test. Results: The study showed a significant association between knowledge, attitudes, sources of information, and teacher roles with anemia risk behavior among adolescent girls, with p-values of 0.00 < α = 0.05. Meanwhile, parental roles were not associated with anemia risk behavior among adolescent girls, with a p-value of 0.073 > α = 0.05. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between knowledge, attitudes, sources of information, and teacher roles with anemia risk behavior among adolescent girls, whereas parental roles have no relationship with anemia risk behavior in adolescent girls.

Abstract

Background: Hyperthermia in children with typhoid fever requires timely and safe management because elevated body temperature may increase discomfort, raise metabolic demand, and interfere with recovery. Non-pharmacological measures such as tepid water sponge represent a simple nursing intervention that is feasible and relevant in primary care settings. Objective: To analyze the application of tepid water sponge in the management of hyperthermia among pediatric patients with typhoid fever using a case study approach. Methods: This study used a descriptive case study design involving two pediatric patients aged 5–11 years with typhoid fever and body temperature above 37°C in the working area of UPTD Puskesmas Tanjung Baru from 28 to 31 May 2022. Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation review, and implementation of the nursing process, including assessment, diagnosis, intervention, implementation, and evaluation. The main intervention was tepid water sponge as part of hyperthermia management. Results: Both patients showed gradual reductions in body temperature over three days of care. In the first case, body temperature decreased from 38.5°C on day 1 to 37.2°C on day 2 and 36.0°C on day 3. In the second case, body temperature decreased from 39.0°C on day 1 to 37.5°C on day 2 and 36.5°C on day 3. Differences in response appeared to be related to the child’s cooperation, medication adherence, fluid intake, and family understanding of hyperthermia management. Conclusion: Tepid water sponge may serve as a supportive nursing intervention to reduce body temperature in children with hyperthermia due to typhoid fever. Its effectiveness should be supported by appropriate monitoring, family education, and active caregiver involvement during care.
