Abstract

Early childhood development stimulation has a significant impact on their cognitive, motor, and social growth. The knowledge and practices of mothers in providing developmental stimulation are crucial, especially in communities facing social and economic challenges, such as fishing communities. This study aims to explore the knowledge, practices, challenges, and sources of information related to child development stimulation among mothers in Bone Regency. This study uses a qualitative approach with in-depth interviews. A total of 15 mothers with children aged 0-24 months were selected using purposive sampling. The collected data were analyzed using the Colaizzi method to identify key themes. The majority of mothers have basic knowledge about motor and language stimulation, but they lack understanding of social and cognitive stimulation. The stimulation practices they carry out focus on gross motor stimulation and language through daily conversations. The main challenges faced are limited time due to work as fishermen and economic constraints that affect access to information. The primary sources of information come from personal experience, family, and close friends, with few accessing health services or mass media.The results of the study emphasize the importance of enhancing maternal health education on social and cognitive child stimulation. Additionally, better access to information through effective channels is needed, especially for mothers in areas with time and economic constraints. Community-based education and outreach can improve mothers' understanding and practices in child development stimulation.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the most common diseases suffered by the elderly. Hypertension is also referred to as “the silent disease” because there are no signs or symptoms that can be seen from the outside. The development of hypertension runs slowly, but is potentially very dangerous. In the initial survey conducted by the researcher, it was obtained data on the number of elderly people who experienced the most hypertension in Nepo Village. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between age and blood pressure of elderly hypertension. The method used in this study uses a descriptive method with a quantitative approach. The population in this study were 38 elderly people. The sampling technique used Accidental sampling with a total sample of 27 people according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Measurement of blood pressure using a Sphygmomanomater or Tensimeter (blood pressure measuring device), the use of an observation sheet to record the results of measuring the blood pressure of the elderly and informed consent as a statement of the elderly's willingness to become respondents which contains general elderly data such as identity. The results of statistical tests using the chi-square test obtained a correlation of age with systolic blood pressure p 0.046 <α 0.05 and a correlation of age with diastolic blood pressure p 0.044 <α 0.05, so it can be concluded that there is a correlation between age and blood pressure in elderly hypertension.

Abstract

Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) remains a prevalent global health challenge, with significant incidence rates observed in Indonesia, particularly within South Sulawesi. Current data records 10.64 million cases in 2024, with projections estimating a rise to 40.7 million by 2045. A substantial number of these patients suffer from diabetic ulcers, a complication that severely compromises quality of life and self-confidence. Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of optimized modern wound care interventions in enhancing the quality of life and self-confidence of patients with Diabetes Mellitus. Method: A pre-experimental design. A total sampling technique was employed to select 25 registered DM patients at the Masagena Independent Wound Care Practice. Statistical analysis was conducted using paired t-tests with a significance threshold of p < 0.05. Results: The analysis revealed significant differences in patient outcomes following the intervention (p < 0.05). The mean quality of life score improved markedly from a baseline of 8.72 ± 2.85 to 94.20 ± 3.41 post-intervention. Similarly, the mean self-confidence score increased from 8.36 ± 2.69 (pre-test) to 93.92 ± 2.88 following the implementation of modern wound care optimization. Conclusion: The optimization of modern wound care significantly positively impacts type 2 DM patients, resulting in a demonstrated increase in both quality of life and self-confidence.
