Abstract

One effective method of controlling and eradicating infectious diseases that can cause death is through immunization. The level of immunization coverage and success is determined not only by the availability of vaccines, but also by community behavior. One factor is parents' knowledge and understanding of immunization. The method consisted of a pre-test, interactive counseling, a question and answer session, and a post-test. The results of the activity, which was attended by 14 people, showed that the level of knowledge of the target group about basic immunization before the counseling was only 5 people in the good category (35.7%), increasing to 12 people (85.7%). The Wilcoxon test results showed a significant effect on the increase in participants' knowledge after health promotion (p-value = 0.003). In conclusion, there was an increase in participants' understanding of basic immunization after the counseling, which indicates the success of health promotion through counseling.

Abstract

: Incomplete immunization can cause morbidity and death due to diseases that should be prevented by immunization (PD3I). This study explores the correlation between maternal health literacy and compliance with basic immunization for children aged 0-11 months in Bontomarannu Community Health Center, Gowa Regency. This study design used a retrospective cross-sectional study for quantitative analysis with a total sample of 87 mothers. Research data was obtained from the results of filling out the HLS–EU–Q16 questionnaire and secondary data related to the completeness of child immunization. Research data was analyzed using the Chi Square test with the help of the SPSS program. The results of the analysis show that there is a significant relationship between health literacy and maternal compliance in providing basic immunizations to children (p-value = 0.000). Mothers with adequate health literacy tend to have high compliance in providing children with basic immunizations. The results of the analysis showed that of the 87 mothers studied, the majority of mothers with inadequate health literacy tended to be incomplete in providing basic immunizations to their children, while of all mothers with adequate health literacy, all provided complete basic immunizations. In conclusion, addressing health literacy is crucial for effective immunization programs.

Abstract

The increasing prevalence and incidence of tuberculosis each year highlights the need to use Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) in conjunction with multi-drug treatment to help suppress the transmission of tuberculosis within families. Lauric acid, the main component of VCO, transforms into monolaurin in the digestive tract. Monolaurin is a substance known to enhance the body's immune system. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of Multi-drug Treatment and VCO treatment on Tuberculosis incidence in household contacts associated with cost effective analysis (CEA). This study employs a quasi-experimental method, a form of quantitative research akin to a true experiment but does not involve full randomisation of subjects or groups. Subjects were divided into two groups. The treatment group consisted of new tuberculosis patients who received a combination of multi-drug treatment and virgin coconut oil (VCO). Their household contacts were tested to determine whether they were positive for acid-fast bacilli at the initial stage and again at the second month of the study. The control group included new tuberculosis patients who received the Directly Observed Treatment Short Course (DOTS) or the multi-drug treatment (MDT) package only. Similar to the treatment group, their household contacts were also tested. After two months of treatment for tuberculosis among individuals in the same household, a follow-up showed significant differences between the intervention and control groups. In the intervention group, all 81 participants (100%) tested negative for acid-fast bacilli in the second month. In contrast, the control group had 3 participants (4.3%) who tested positive for acid-fast bacilli. The effectiveness of tuberculosis drug therapy is assessed by examining whether patients test negative for acid-fast bacilli during their second examination. The results indicate that patients receiving a combination of multi-drug treatment and VCO intervention have a higher rate of negative testing for acid-fast bacilli compared to those receiving only multi-drug treatment.
