Abstract

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is transmitted mainly through saliva or secretions from the nose when an infected person coughs or sneezes. One way to prevent the broader spread of the COVID-19 pandemic is by vaccination. The study aimed to determine factors related to community participation in the COVID-19 vaccination program in Batu Merah State, Ambon City, in 2021. This study was an analytical study using primary data with a cross-sectional approach. The sample in this study consisted of residents of Batu Merah State, Ambon City, aged 18 years, totaling 204 people who were taken using the cluster random sampling technique. 59 respondents (28.9%) had received the first dose of vaccination, and as many as 42 respondents (20.6%) had received the first and second doses of vaccination. Meanwhile, as many as 103 respondents (50.5%) have not been vaccinated. The role of the environment is mainly found in the supportive category, which is 136 respondents (66.7%), the most motivation is in the medium category, which is 125 respondents (61.3%), the most economical level is in the lower middle category as many as 117 respondents ( 57.4%), the highest confidence was in the medium category, which was 110 respondents (53.9%), and the most convenience was in the relatively easy category, which was 163 respondents (79.9%). There is a relationship between the role of the environment, motivation, economic level, confidence, and convenience with community participation in the COVID-19 vaccination program in Batu Merah State, Ambon City, in 2021.

Abstract

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) is a nutritional issue that poses a threat to adolescents in Indonesia, particularly to adolescent girls. According to the 2018 Basic Health Survey (Riskesdas), the proportion of CED among adolescent girls in Indonesia was 36.3%. This study aimed to identify the factors associated with CED among adolescent girls in the catchment area of Poka-Rumah Tiga, Ambon City. The study was conducted in August 2022 and used a cross-sectional approach with total sampling. The respondents were students aged 15-19 years from three high schools/equivalents in the catchment area of Poka-Rumah Tiga Health Center (SMKN 5 Ambon, SMAN 3 Ambon, and MA Al-Mabrur), with a total of 441 respondents. CED was determined based on the mid-upper arm circumference size being less than 23.5 cm. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with CED in adolescent girls. Of the 441 adolescent girls who participated in this study, 45.80% were found to have CED. The odds of CED were lower in adolescent girls with normal BMI (18.5-22.9 kg/m2) (OR=0.09; 95%CI: 0.05-0.15; p less than 0.001) and overweight (≥23 kg/m2) (OR=0.01; 95%CI: 0.00-0.07; p less than 0.001) compared to those who were underweight (BMI less than 18.5 kg/m2). This study highlights the importance of conducting nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive interventions for adolescent girls. This includes raising the awareness and knowledge of adolescent girls, family members, and school teachers regarding the importance of balanced nutrition to reduce CED.

Abstract

Di Indonesia, proporsi kurang energi kronik (KEK) tahun 2018 pada ibu hamil sebesar 17,3%.  Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui faktor yang berhubungan dengan kejadian KEK pada ibu hamil di Kecamatan Leitimur Selatan dan Teluk Ambon, Kota Ambon. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan cross sectional dengan menggunakan teknik total sampling. Pengumpulan data dilakukan bulan Agustus-September 2019. Analisis regresi logistik digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi faktor yang behubungan dengan kejadian KEK pada ibu hamil. Dari 260 responden yang diwawancarai, prevalensi KEK adalah 20,8%. Faktor yang berhubungan secara signifikan dengan kejadian KEK adalah status anemia, paritas, dan penyedia layanan antenatal care. Odds kejadian KEK lebih tinggi pada ibu dengan anemia dibandingkan ibu yang tidak mengalami anemia (aOR=2,27; 95% CI: 1,12-3,93; p=0,022). Akan tetapi, odds kejadian KEK lebih rendah pada ibu dengan kehamilan pertama dibandingkan ibu dengan yang telah memiliki satu sampai tiga anak (aOR=0,35; 95% CI: 0,15-0,81; p=0,015) dan pada ibu yang memeriksakan kehamilan ke tenaga bidan atau perawat, dibandingkan ibu yang memeriksakan kehamilan ke tenaga dokter/spesialis (aOR=0,49; 95% CI: 0,24-0,99; p=0,050). Penelitian ini menunjukkan perlunya intervensi promosi kesehatan termasuk saat periode pre-konsepsi untuk meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat tentang mengkonsumsi makanan yang variatif dengan gizi seimbang, mendorong kepatuhan minum tablet tambah besi terutama selama kehamilan sampai pemberian makanan terfotifikasi bagi masyarakat. Selain itu, diperlukan juga upaya untuk meningkatkan kemampuan seluruh tenaga kesehatan dalam memberikan pelayanan kehamilan yang berkualitas untuk mendeteksi dini kejadian KEK, meningkatkan status gizi kehamilan, serta edukasi tentang keluarga berencana untuk merencanakan jumlah anak secara baik.

Abstract

Measles is an infectious disease caused by a viral infection. The measles virus is known as Morbilivirus. Measles is a disease that causes a systemic rash and there are several clinical manifestations that can cause complications. The purpose of this study was to determine factors related to advanced measles-rubella immunization status in children aged 20-59 months in Labuha Village, Bacan District in 2023. This study was an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional approach using primary data obtained from 143 respondent. The sampling technique used is Simple Random Sampling. The results of this study showed that out of 143 children aged 20-59 months in Labuha Village who had received advanced measles-rubella immunization, 67 children (46.9%), while children who did not receive advanced measles-rubella immunization, were 76 children (53, 1%). The results showed that the related factors were education (p=0.004), knowledge (p=0.002), basic immunization status (p=0.034). The variable that has no relationship is the mother's employment status (p=0.102). The conclusion of this study is that there is a relationship between education level, level of knowledge, and children's basic immunization status. However, there was no relationship between the mother's employment status and the measles-rubella immunization status. It is hoped that the Labuha health center will improve education and outreach regarding immunization so that it can motivate people to take part in routine immunization programs.

Abstract

Anemia merupakan masalah kesehatan yang memengaruhi 56 juta wanita di seluruh dunia dan dua pertiganya berada di Asia. Pada wanita lanjut usia, kadar hemoglobin bisa terus menurun. Oleh karena itu, wanita perlu memeriksakan kadar hemoglobinnya secara rutin. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan usia dengan kadar hemoglobin pada wanita. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif analisis dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Data dikumpulkan dari 100 responden yang terdiri dari perempuan dewasa di Kota Tual, Gugusan Pulau Kei, Maluku, dengan mencatat karakteristik demografinya dan memeriksa kadar hemoglobinnya. Uji normalitas menggunakan Kolmogorov-Smirnov terhadap variabel usia dan kadar hemoglobin. Spearman's rank digunakan untuk mengkorelasikan usia dengan kadar hemoglobin responden. Uji korelasi menunjukkan adanya hubungan yang signifikan antara usia dengan kadar hemoglobin responden (p<0,044), yaitu semakin tua usia perempuan maka kadar hemoglobin responden semakin rendah. Berdasarkan hasil tersebut dapat disimpulkan bahwa adanya hubungan yang signifikan antara usia dengan kadar hemoglobin menunjukkan perlunya wanita segala usia untuk memeriksakan kadar hemoglobinnya secara rutin. Semakin tua usia seorang wanita, maka kadar hemoglobinnya akan semakin menurun dan semakin rentan mengalami anemia.

Abstract

Penyakit kusta merupakan penyakit menular kronis yang disebabkan oleh Mycobacterium Leprae yang berpotensi menyebabkan kecacatan sehingga menimbulkan diskriminasi dan stigma. Keterlambatan deteksi kasus pada penderita kusta merupakan salah satu faktor penyebab terjadinya kecacatan. Maluku menduduki peringkat ke-4 dari 6 provinsi di Indonesia yang belum melakukan eliminasi kusta. Berdasarkan data Kementerian Kesehatan tahun 2022, prevalensi kasus baru yang dilaporkan 11,97/100.000 dengan 65% kasus merupakan kusta multibasiler. Memahami perbedaan pengetahuan dan sikap mengenai kusta di negara-negara endemik dapat membantu kita mengembangkan intervensi pendidikan dan perubahan perilaku yang ditargetkan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengetahuan dan sikap terhadap penyakit kusta pada masyarakat di Kota Tual. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif cross-sectional ini dilakukan terhadap sampel 153 orang dewasa berusia 18 tahun ke atas pada masyarakat di Kota Tual, Gugusan Pulau Kei, Maluku. Kuesioner terstruktur yang diberikan pewawancara digunakan sebagai instrumen pengumpulan data. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan masyarakat di Tual tentang penyakit kusta masih kurang. Sebanyak 92,2% berpengetahuan rendah dan hanya 7,8% berpengetahuan baik. Berdasarkan hasil tersebut dapat disimpulkan bahwa meskipun penyakit kusta berstatus endemis di Maluku dan khususnya di Kota Tual, pengetahuan masyarakat mengenai penyakit kusta masih kurang. Upaya-upaya pendidikan kesehatan yang ada saat ini perlu ditingkatkan dengan menggunakan strategi pendidikan terkini dan berkolaborasi dengan layanan kesehatan, tokoh masyarakat, dan lembaga pendidikan kedokteran dalam upaya meningkatkan pengetahuan, kesadaran, dan mengurangi stigma penyakit kusta.
