Abstract

Most causes of infant death are problems that occur in newborn/neonatal (0-28 days old), Low Birth Weight Babies (LBW) is one of the factors which has a contribution to infant mortality, especially in the neonatal period. Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) is a benchmark in determining the degree of public health, both at the National and Provincial levels. This study aimed to determine the effect of the Kangaroo Mother Care Method (KMC) on the prevention of hypothermia in low birth weight infants at Morowali District Hospital in 2019. The type of research used was a quasi-experiment. The population is all low birth weight babies born from May to July 2019. The sample in this study was all newborns with low birth weight born from May to July 2019, totaling 30 babies. There is a difference (influence) on the baby's body temperature before and after KMC with a p-value=0,000. The kangaroo mother care can continue to be affiliated considering its benefits for both infants and mothers, as well as increasing the ability of health workers in conducting KMC so that they can provide in-house training for mothers to be carried out at home.

Abstract

Pregnancy is a physiological condition that may develop into complications if not monitored regularly through Antenatal Care (ANC) examinations. Limited maternal knowledge regarding danger signs during pregnancy can affect compliance with ANC visits, thereby increasing the risk of complications for both mother and fetus. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between maternal knowledge of pregnancy danger signs and compliance with ANC examinations. This study employed a quantitative analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of all pregnant women in the working area of a healthcare facility, with 92 respondents selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using a knowledge questionnaire and an ANC compliance observation sheet. Data analysis was conducted using univariate and bivariate methods with the Chi-Square test at a significance level of α = 0.05. The results showed that most respondents had a good level of knowledge regarding pregnancy danger signs (48 respondents; 52.2%), and the majority were compliant with ANC examinations (61 respondents; 66.3%). Statistical analysis demonstrated a significant relationship between maternal knowledge regarding pregnancy danger signs and compliance with ANC examinations (p = 0.001). Pregnant women with better knowledge tended to demonstrate higher compliance with routine ANC visits. This study highlights the importance of strengthening maternal health education regarding pregnancy danger signs to improve compliance with ANC examinations and support the early prevention of pregnancy complications.
