Abstract

Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) cases in Nagan Raya have increased every year. Efforts to prevent tuberculosis transmission with healthy lifestyle behaviors have been carried out. However, the prevalence of pulmonary tuberculosis is still high and many factors are associated with the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis—analytical study with a case-control approach to determine risk factors for tuberculosis in the Nagan Raya district. The sample in this study was 290 people consisting of 58 cases and 232 controls. The sampling technique used purposive sampling. Data was collected by interviewing respondents, observing, and reporting TB case records. Multivariate analysis using multiple logistic regression tests with a 95% confidence level. The results showed that the characteristic factors associated with the incidence of pulmonary TB were primary education (p=0.002), not working (p=0.000), and income <REGIONAL MINIMUM WAGE (p=0.001). Environmental factors associated with the incidence of pulmonary TB were the number of household members >4 people (p=0.036) and no ventilation in each room (p=0.000). Health factors associated with the incidence of pulmonary TB were underweight nutritional status (p=0.019), obese nutritional status (p=0.042), and not containing BCG (p=0.014). The most dominant factor associated with the incidence of pulmonary TB is not working (OR = 4.17; 95% CI = 1.36-12.73). Respondents who did not work had a 4.17 times higher risk of experiencing pulmonary TB than those who did not work after controlling for environmental and health factors. For this reason, it is expected that respondents need to increase their income to prevent transmission of pulmonary TB and maintain cleanliness, improve nutritional status and limit contact with TB sufferers

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious infectious disease that causes major health problems globally. Indonesia is a country with a high burden of TB cases, with an incidence of 312 per 100,000 population. The number of suspected tuberculosis cases in Aceh in 2022 is 85,945 cases. Aceh Besar has the second highest number of tuberculosis cases, namely 3644 people. DM sufferers have uncontrolled glucose levels so they are at risk of developing TB. This research was conducted to analyze the risk factors for the incidence of tuberculosis in DM sufferers at the Aceh Besar. This research is a quantitative research approach case control study. The sample in this study was DM sufferers with a total sample of 104 people with a sample number of 52 people in each group. Sampling in research uses the technique of purposive sampling. Sample selection for the control group was carried out by selecting DM sufferers of the same gender as the case group. Data collection was carried out using questionnaires and data from examination results from community health centers. Data analysis used multiple logistic regression tests with a confidence level of 95%. The results of the study showed that factors associated with the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis in diabetes mellitus sufferers in Aceh Besar were secondary education (OR=8.84; 95%CI=1.67–46.69), not working (OR=3.12; 95%CI=1.16–8.35), poor lifestyle (OR=4.97; 95%CI=1.68–14.71), underweight nutritional status (OR=4.38; 95%CI=1.14–16.77), smoking (OR=3.19; 95%CI=1.35–7,55), unhealthy house (OR=2.36; 95%CI=1.07 – 5.18), poor quality of health services (OR=0.03; 95%CI=0.01–0.09), family history of TB (OR=9.40; 95%CI=2.57–34.34) and contact directly with TB sufferers (OR=4.71; 95%CI=1.79–12.40). The most dominant factor associated with the incidence of tuberculosis in diabetes mellitus sufferers in Aceh Besar is smoking (OR=12.71; 95%CI=2.07–77.68). It is hoped that the public, especially DM sufferers, will stop smoking to engage in physical activity or consider seeking support or health consultation to help stop smoking. Additionally, it is hoped to not have direct contact with TB sufferers, to and use a mask when interacting with TB sufferers.

Abstract

COVID-19 is a global pandemic that threatens everyone's health. The increase in confirmed COVID-19 cases continues to occur, including in Aceh Besar Regency. Public health intervention efforts have proven effective in reducing the incidence of COVID-19 and community leaders can be involved in these public health intervention efforts. Public health interventions are expected to cause changes in health behavior, but these behavioral changes require health beliefs. This study is a qualitative study with an exploratory approach to determine the beliefs of community leaders towards COVID-19. The number of informants in this study was 8 community leaders who were selected by purposive sampling. Data collection was carried out by conducting in-depth interviews. Data analysis in this study was carried out before entering the field, while in the field and after finishing in the field. The results of the interviews showed that the health beliefs of community leaders towards COVID-19 were influenced by the sources of information obtained, beliefs about COVID-19, the attitudes of community leaders towards people around them who were infected with COVID-19 and knowledge about the dangerous impacts of COVID-19. Good knowledge will increase the trust of community leaders and improve the attitudes of community leaders to participate in the COVID-19 vaccination which is one of the preventions of COVID-19. Community leaders are also involved in helping health workers provide information about efforts to prevent and handle COVID-19. It is hoped that community leaders will play an active role in efforts to prevent and handle COVID-19 by increasing knowledge and attitudes about COVID-19 which can be obtained through online and print information media. In addition, community leaders are expected to work together with health workers in preventing COVID-19.

Abstract

The use of digital electronic devices is increasingly widespread among students, both in academic and non-academic contexts, but this can have negative impacts such as Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). This study aims to analyze the comparative risk factors for CVS in digital-based elementary school students in Banda Aceh City and conventional-based students in Aceh Besar Regency. The study used a cross-sectional design with a total of 64 respondents using Simple Random Sampling technique, consisting of 32 students from each school. Data were collected between 15–30 August. The analysis was carried out using the Mann-Whitney U test, Independent Sample t-test, and logistic regression. The results showed a higher prevalence of CVS in digital-based students (75%) than in conventional. The average time of using electronic devices in the digital group was 8 hours/day, higher than the conventional group (5 hours/day). There was a significant difference in the duration of electronic device use between the two groups (p=0.0001). The most dominant factor associated with CVS was the duration of digital electronic device use in a day (OR=2.05; 95% CI=1.41–2.99; p=0.0001). This study emphasizes the importance of regulating the time of digital device use in children.

Abstract

Hypertension is a high-risk non-communicable disease and is known as a "silent killer" because it often does not show clear symptoms. Coastal communities in Pidie Jaya Regency face various challenges in accessing health services, including economic, cultural, and geographical limitations, which affect their behavioral patterns in seeking treatment. This study aims to understand the behavioral patterns of coastal communities in accessing health services for hypertension treatment and the factors that influence it. This study uses a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis based on case studies. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with 27 informants, consisting of hypertension sufferers, families, health workers, and village heads in five coastal sub-districts of Pidie Jaya Regency. The majority of people are more familiar with the term "high blood pressure" than "hypertension" and tend to choose traditional medicine over medical treatment. Awareness of routine check-ups is still low, and access to health facilities is influenced by economic factors and transportation limitations. Culture-based health education, increasing access to health services, and improving drug distribution systems are needed to increase awareness and compliance of coastal communities in managing hypertension.

Abstract

Stunting is a child's height growth that is shorter than their age. Wasting is the development of a child's weight that is too thin to their height. In 2019, the prevalence of Stunting cases that occurred in the world was 21.3%, and the prevalence of Wasting cases was 6.9%. The pandemic situation has disrupted nutritional services, especially in health service facilities and integrated health posts, due to the lack of community mobility. This study aims to determine the risk factors for stunting and wasting in toddlers during the Covid-19 pandemic. This study is descriptive analytical with a cross-sectional design. The population in this study were toddlers under two years of age. The sample in this study was 93 using a purposive sampling technique. The data collection method was carried out using a validated questionnaire and interviews using the Chi-Square statistical test. The results of the analysis showed that the most dominant risk factor for Stunting was Exclusive Breastfeeding (OR = 9.37; 95% CI: 2.14-40.86; p = 0.003); The most dominant risk factor for Wasting is Environmental Sanitation (OR=16.44; 95%CI: 3.68-73.47; p=0.000) and the most dominant risk factor for Stunting plus Wasting is Environmental Sanitation (OR=3.86; 95%CI: 1.39-10.75; p=0.009). For Nutrition Program Managers, it is important to improve the nutritional status and nutrient intake levels of the community, especially after the pandemic ends.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the factors influencing people's utilization of vaccination services at the Sigli City Health Center. This research employed an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach. Independent variables included age, occupation, education, knowledge, accessibility, family support, perception, and immunization history, while the dependent variable was the utilization of the Covid-19 vaccine service. The study was conducted in November, with a sample size of 371 respondents selected using random sampling techniques based on the Slovin formula. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to the respondents. The research findings revealed that approximately 78.71% of the population utilized the vaccine service, while 21.29% did not. Bivariate analysis indicated that out of the eight variables examined, five variables had a significant relationship with the utilization of the Covid-19 vaccine service, namely occupation, knowledge, accessibility, family support, and perception, each with a p-value of 0.000. Multivariate analysis further confirmed that knowledge was the most dominant factor, with a p-value of 0.000 and an Odds Ratio of 23.3 (95% CI = 63.5-85.9). Thus, a lack of knowledge was found to be a significant factor influencing the utilization of the Covid-19 vaccine service.

Abstract

Stunting is a critical issue with irreversible consequences on children's growth and development. In Ingin Jaya and Indrapuri districts, stunting is a significant concern. This research examined the knowledge and skills of TPK and Posyandu cadres in tackling stunting in Aceh Besar Regency. The study included 50 TPK cadres and 50 Integrated Service Post cadres actively engaged in Want Jaya and Indrapuri districts in 2022. Analysis revealed no significant differences in knowledge (P=0.562) and skills (P=0.445) between the cadres. Cadres' motivation level emerged as the most influential factor impacting stunting prevalence, with lower motivation associated with a 4.67% increase in stunting village score (P=0.030). These findings offer valuable insights for addressing stunting and inform effective management strategies in rural areas. While no significant differences were found in knowledge, skills, education, and occupation between TPK and Integrated Service Post cadres in Aceh Besar District, variations were observed in the distance from the village to the district capital. Inadequate knowledge and motivation in both cadre groups significantly affect efforts to combat toddler stunting.

Abstract

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease (NCD) with a high prevalence in Indonesia and is a major cause of serious complications, such as stroke, kidney failure, and heart disease. The high incidence of hypertension makes this disease a primary focus of NCD control efforts at the primary healthcare level. The Ulee Kareng Community Health Center has implemented a sustainable hypertension control program for the past three years with the aim of reducing the incidence of complications and improving patients' quality of life. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the hypertension control program using a logic model framework that encompasses five aspects: input, process, output, outcome, and impact. The research method used is descriptive analytic with a mixed methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative data to obtain a comprehensive overview of program implementation. The results indicate that the hypertension control program at the Ulee Kareng Community Health Center has had a positive impact. In terms of output and outcome, there has been an increase in patient compliance with therapy prescribed by healthcare professionals, a decrease in blood pressure in the majority of patients, and a decrease in the number of hypertension-related complications. This indicates that the program is quite effective in achieving its intended goals. However, several challenges remain. The main problems lie in the suboptimal data recording system and the suboptimal delivery of health education. To improve the program's effectiveness in the future, recommendations include strengthening the monitoring and evaluation system, increasing the capacity of health workers and cadres through training, and developing innovative media and educational strategies to make information more easily understood and applied by the public.
