Abstract

HIV, Syphilis and Hepatitis B infections are infectious diseases that are still a health problem in the world, including in Indonesia. The incidence of mother-to-child transmission ranks 5th highest in Asia. HIV transmission from mother to child is 20-45%, Syphilis transmission from mother to child is 69-80% and Hepatitis B transmission from pregnant women to children is 90-95% (Kemenkes RI, 2014). Only 50% of pregnant women are willing to do an examination or test at the initial Antenatal visit while more pregnant women are known to be positive for viral infections in the final trimester which affects the implementation of treatment (Kesga Division of the Ende District Health Office, 2019). The Objectives to analyse the perception of pregnant women about the role of midwives in the success of the PMTCT-HIV, Syphilis, Hepatitis B program for pregnant women at the Ende Regency Health Center. Methods: using a quantitative design method with a correlational analytic approach. The technique for determining respondents used purposive sampling method. The research sample was first trimester pregnant women who checked themselves at the Ende City Health Center from June to August 2021. The sampling technique used the Slovin formula which amounted to 50 respondents. Data were collected from pregnant women's examination cards, MCH books and interviews with respondents. Data processing used the Spearman Rank correlation test with the help of the SPSS for windows 19.00 program. The results of the Spearman Rank variable test of the role of midwives as communicators, motivators, facilitators and counsellors do not have a significant relationship to the success of the PMTCT-HIV, Syphilis, Hepatitis B Program with a value (p-value <0.05), namely 0.656 for the p-value of the role variable as a counsellor, 0.629 for the p-value of the role variable as a motivator, 0.580 p-value for the role variable as a communicator and 0.445 for the p-value of the midwife's role variable as a facilitator. As for the direction of the relationship between the four variables, it has a unidirectional nature according to the positive value of the Corelation Coefficient, and for the level of relationship between the four variables, namely the variable role of midwives as counsellors and motivators has a strong level of relationship (0.656) and (0629), the variable role of midwives as communicators and facilitators has a moderate level of relationship (0.580) and (0.445). Conclusion is necessary to maximize the success of the PMTCT program, including counsellor training for all health workers, especially midwives, the availability of facilities and infrastructure to support activities and counselling efforts in a sustainable, integrated and integrated manner supported by the ability of midwives to manage health programs to improve knowledge and health behaviour in pregnant women.

Abstract

The role of cadres is very important in efforts to anticipate and handle hypertension complications such as cardiac arrest. One of the roles of cadres when the elderly experience cardiac arrest is that cadres are able to prevent and treat cardiac arrest by providing basic life support and are able to give advice to the elderly to avoid things that can be at risk of causing sudden death. The Community Service activity was held on May 1-2, 2024 in the Gheoghoma Village office hall and was attended by 11 village cadres and the Head of Gheo Ghoma Village. The method used is education and skills to do basic life support. At the beginning of the activity, a test of cadre knowledge about basic life support was carried out and then simulations and demonstrations were carried out and then closed with a post test. From the results of the activity, data was obtained that most of the cadres had understood and were able to provide basic life support, as evidenced by the results of the answers to the questions given where the respondents had less knowledge than 75% and in the post stage after being given material and demonstrations on the treatment of cardiac arrest, the results of the increase in respondents' knowledge about basic life support were obtained, which was as much as 83%. In addition, in training activities, cadres are able to carry out basic life support using BHD phamptom aids and obtain a score from 0% to 75%. Therefore, it is highly expected that the village management will continue to cooperate with the government, especially the cadres in improving knowledge and other skills in preventing sudden death in the community by conducting continuous training so as to increase knowledge and skills that will have an impact on the prevention and handling of sudden death due to cardiac arrest

Abstract

Background Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a contagious infectious disease which is grouped as a factor that can affect maternal and child mortality (Ministry of Health, 2014). In 2015-2017 several cases of HIV were found in pregnant women and were transmitted to infants which resulted in infant death due to HIV infection in the working area of the Rukun Lima Health Center. The VCT program has been implemented since 2017 but of the total pregnant women who perform ANC only 50% accept to carry out examinations through VCT services. The aim of the study was to analyze the factors that influence the use of Voluntary Counseling and Testing (VCT) in pregnant women at the Rukun Health Center Five. Observational Analytical Design Method. The approach is carried out by cross sectional. Research data was collected from June to August 2020 using a questionnaire. There are 2 data analyzes carried out in this study, namely descriptive analysis used to determine the frequency distribution of each respondent. Meanwhile, to find out the relationship between the independent variable and the dependent variable, bivariate and multivariate analysis is used. The results of the univariate analysis revealed that pregnant women with less knowledge of HIV were 53.48%, supported by facilities, 58.14%, supported by service providers 65.12% and pregnant women who did not have VCT examinations were 62.79%. The results of the bivariate analysis found that there was a relationship between the knowledge and support of service providers and the participation of pregnant women in VCT examinations.

Abstract

Penyakit kecacingan (soil-transmitted helminth/ STH) dan stunting pada balita tetap menjadi masalah kesehatan masyarakat khususnya di wilayah pedesaan karena faktor lingkungan, sanitasi, serta praktik pemberian makan dan perilaku higienis keluarga. Pemberdayaan keluarga melalui edukasi kesehatan, penguatan praktik Perilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat (PHBS), akses dan pemeliharaan sanitasi layak, serta peningkatan ketahanan pangan keluarga merupakan strategi kunci untuk pencegahan terpadu kecacingan dan stunting di tingkat desa. Pemberdayaan keluarga juga memiliki peran strategis dalam pencegahan kedua masalah tersebut, mengingat keluarga merupakan unit terkecil yang berperan langsung dalam pola asuh, perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat (PHBS), serta pemenuhan gizi anak. Tujuan Pengabdian Masyarakat ini meningkatkan kemampuan dan kemandirian keluarga dalam upaya pencegahan penyakit kecacingan dan stunting. Metode Partisipatory Learning and Action (PLA) dengan metode learning by doing. Tahap persiapan dengan mengidentifikasi permasalahan mitra, tahap elaksanaan dengan memberikan sosialisasi, edukasi dan pelatihan serta pendampingan kepada keluarga tentang CTPS, penerapan PHBS di rumah tangga, pengawas minum obat cacing, dan tahap evaluasi penerapan PHBS di keluarga, pengawasan minum obat cacing balita, serta pemantauan pertumbuhan anak secara rutin setiap bulan melalui KMS balita. Hasil kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini menemukan bahwa pemberdayaan keluarga melalui peningkatan pengetahuan, keterampilan, dan perubahan perilaku dapat menjadi intervensi efektif dan berkelanjutan untuk mencegah kecacingan sekaligus menurunkan prevalensi stunting pada balita, apabila dilaksanakan dengan dukungan program kesehatan masyarakat dan multisektor secara berkesinambungan. Intervensi berbasisi keluarga dapat meningkatkan kemampuan dan kemandirian keluarga dalam upaya pencegahan penyakit kecacingan dan stunting pada balita.

Abstract

Background: Indonesia is one of the endemic countries for soil transmitted helminths (STH) with the third highest number of children aged 1-14 years in the world after India and Nigeria, namely around 7% in 2012 and is estimated to be more than 1.5 billion people or 24% of the world's population. Infected with soil-borne worms it is estimated that more than two billion people with STH infections worldwide experience severe morbidity. These infections cause 9-135 thousand deaths per year. The prevalence of worm infections in Indonesia, especially in low socio-economic populations, is still relatively high, namely 45-65%. This group has a high risk of contracting worms because they do not maintain the cleanliness and sanitation of the environment where they live.Purpose: To determine the factors associated with the incidence of stunting in preschool children in Ende Regency.Method: This type of research is a mixed method design that uses non-experiment, namely analytical descriptive research with a cross sectional approach. The population in this study were children aged 12-72 months in Gheoghoma village, Ende Regency, with simple random sampling carried out randomly. The number of respondents with consideration of a representative sample was carried out within 3 months according to the inclusion criteria so that a sample of 82 respondents was obtained.Results: Showed that the majority of mothers' knowledge of worms was in the good category, with no stunting occurring as many as 55 (69.6%) and none experienced stunting, while mothers with a poor level of knowledge as many as 24 (30.4%) did not experience stunting but also experienced stunting as many as 3 (100%). The results of the Chi-Square test showed that poor maternal knowledge regarding the causes, prevention and management of worms has an influence on stunting in children with OR 1.125 (95% CI: 0.985-1.285 p-value = 0.01 (p<0.05).Conclusion: Factors that influence stunting are parents' low knowledge about the benefits of giving worm medicine to children. Although the worm infection in this study had little effect on the nutritional status of children, it could have an impact in the future if there is no immediate prevention and treatment.Suggestion: For health workers to always provide support for the implementation of worm and stunting prevention programs by increasing the role of the community in implementing clean and healthy living behavior. For future researchers, they should add risk factors for stunting with different variables and a larger number of samples. Keywords: Pre-School Children; Worms; Stunting. Pendahuluan: Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara endemik soil transmitted helminths (STH) dengan jumlah anak usia 1-14 tahun terbanyak ketiga di dunia setelah India dan Nigeria yaitu sekitar 7% di tahun 2012 dan diperkirakan lebih dari 1.5 miliar orang atau 24% dari populasi dunia terinfeksi cacing  yang ditularkan melalui tanah. Diperkirakan lebih dari dua miliar orang dengan infeksi STH di dunia mengalami morbiditas berat. Infeksi tersebut menyebabkan 9-135 ribu kematian per tahun.  Prevalensi infeksi cacingan di Indonesia terutama pada penduduk dengan sosio-ekonomi rendah, masih relatif tinggi yaitu sebesar 45-65%. Kelompok ini mempunyai risiko tinggi terjangkit penyakit kecacingan karena kurang menjaga kebersihan dan sanitasi lingkungan tempat tinggalnya.  Tujuan: Untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang berhubungan dengan kejadian stunting pada anak prasekolah di Kabupaten Ende.Metode: Jenis penelitian dengan rancangan mixed metode yang menggunakan non experiment yaitu penelitian deskriptif analitik dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah anak-anak berusia 12-72 bulan yang berada di desa Gheoghoma Kabupaten Ende dengan pengambilan simple random sampling dilakukan secara acak. Jumlah responden dengan pertimbangan sampel yang representatif dilakukan dalam waktu 3 bulan sesuai kriteria inklusi sehingga didapatkan sampel sebanyak 82 responden.Hasil: menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan ibu terhadap kecacingan mayoritas berada pada kategori baik tidak terjadi stunting sebanyak 55 (69.6%) dan tidak ada yang mengalami stunting, sedangkan ibu dengan tingkat pengetahuan buruk sebanyak 24 (30.4%) tidak mengalami stunting namun juga mengalami stunting sebanyak 3 (100%). Hasil uji Chi-Square diketahui bahwa pengetahuan ibu yang buruk mengenai penyebab, pencegahan dan penanggulangan kecacingan mempunyai pengaruh terhadap stunting pada anak dengan OR 1.125 (95% CI: 0.985-1.285 p-value = 0.01 (p<0.05).Simpulan: Faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap stunting yakni rendahnya pengetahuan orangtua tentang manfaat pemberian obat cacing pada anak. Meskipun Infeksi cacing dalam penelitian ini kurang berpengaruh terhadap status gizi pada anak, tetapi kemungkinan bisa memberi dampak di masa depan jika tidak ada pencegahan dan penanganan segera.Saran: Bagi tenaga kesehatan agar senantiasa memberikan dukungan pelaksanaan program pencegahan kecacingan dan stunting dengan meningkatkan peran masyarakat dalam menerapkan perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat. Bagi peneliti selanjutnya agar menambahkan faktor risiko terjadinya stunting dengan variabel berbeda dan jumlah sampel yang lebih banyak. Kata kunci: Anak Pra Sekolah; Kecacingan; Stunting.

Abstract

Abstract: Introduction: Independent breast examination is an effort to detect breast cancer early which is often recommended to every woman. The problem that is happening now is that people's knowledge about SADARI is still lacking. The aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of the Peer Group Method Health Education towards breast cancer prevention in young women at SMAK St. Thomas Morus, Ende District. Methods: This study used a true experimental study with a pretest-posttest control group design. Respondents were determined by simple random sampling divided into two groups consisting of 30 people as the treatment group and 30 people as the control group. Results: There is a significant difference between the knowledge and behavior of young women before and after being given health education using the Peer Group method (T test: 0.000). Negative t value -3.548 means that the average knowledge and behavior before being given health education is lower than that after being given health education. Conclusion: the peer group method (peer educators) is considered very effective in providing health education to young women about BSE. So that peer educators are expected to be an alternative in health promotion that is more effective in delivering health messages, especially to adolescents. Abstrak: Pendahuluan: Pemeriksaan payudara secara mandiri merupakan upaya mendeteksi dini kanker payudara yang sering dianjurkan kepada setiap wanita. Permasalahan yang terjadi saat ini adalah pengetahuan masyarakat mengenai SaDaRi masih kurang.
