Abstract

Introduction: The rapid advancement of digital technology has significantly transformed health information systems (HIS) worldwide. Health analysts, as key professionals in managing health data, play a crucial role in the integration and utilization of these digital tools. However, the extent, effectiveness, and challenges of this integration remain underexplored across different healthcare contexts. This systematic review aims to examine the integration of digital technology by health analysts within health information systems, focusing on the types of technologies adopted, the roles played by health analysts, the benefits gained, and the challenges encountered during implementation. Methods: Following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, we conducted a systematic search of peer-reviewed articles published between 2013 and 2025 from databases including PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Keywords used included “health analyst”, “digital technology”, “health information system”, and “integration”. Eligible studies included primary research involving health analysts and the application of digital health technologies. Results: From an initial pool of 1,274 articles, 28 studies met the inclusion criteria. The findings reveal that health analysts have been instrumental in integrating technologies such as Electronic Health Records (EHR), Laboratory Information Systems (LIS), data analytics platforms, and mobile health applications. The integration has led to improved data accuracy, faster reporting, and enhanced decision-making support. Nonetheless, several challenges were identified, including lack of digital training, infrastructure limitations, and regulatory gaps. Conclusions: The integration of digital technologies by health analysts significantly enhances the performance of health information systems. However, successful adoption requires continuous professional development, supportive policies, and robust digital infrastructure. Future efforts should focus on strengthening the digital competencies of health analysts and aligning technology integration with national health strategies.

Abstract

Introduction: Febrile illness is a common clinical condition in children, often caused by viral or bacterial infections, and if not properly managed, can lead to serious complications such as seizures, dehydration, and altered consciousness. While pharmacological treatments like antipyretics are commonly used, non-pharmacological approaches like warm water compresses can be safe and effective alternatives. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of warm water compresses in reducing body temperature in febrile children. Methods: This descriptive case study involved two pediatric patients aged 1 and 3 years diagnosed with febris. Each child received warm water compress treatment twice daily for three consecutive days. The compress was applied to specific areas (forehead, armpits, and groin) for 15–20 minutes using a towel soaked in 37–40°C water. Body temperature was measured with a digital thermometer before and after each intervention session. Observations also included behavioral responses and parent interviews to assess comfort and satisfaction. Results: The intervention demonstrated a significant decrease in body temperature among both patients. On average, there was a temperature reduction of 0.4°C to 1.0°C after each session, with a consistent downward trend over three days. Both children exhibited improved comfort and less irritability, and parents expressed satisfaction with the method as a supportive home care technique. Conclusion: Warm water compresses are effective as a non-pharmacological intervention in lowering febrile temperature in children. The method is safe, simple, and well-accepted, making it a viable option in clinical and home settings. Healthcare providers and parents are encouraged to utilize warm compresses to respond to febrile episodes, reducing over-reliance on medications and promoting safe, supportive care practices for children

Abstract

Introduction: Hypertension remains a major public health problem globally, particularly among pre-elderly adults (aged 45–59 years), who are at increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Both genetic predisposition and lifestyle factors, such as physical activity, play crucial roles in determining hypertension risk. Understanding how family history interacts with physical activity can provide valuable insights for prevention strategies among this population. Methods: This cross-sectional study aimed to analyze the association between family history of hypertension and physical activity with the prevalence of hypertension in pre-elderly adults. A total of 240 respondents aged 45–59 years were selected using stratified random sampling from community health centers. Data on blood pressure were collected through standardized sphygmomanometer measurements. Family history was determined based on self-reported parental or sibling hypertension. Physical activity level was assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and categorized as low, moderate, or high. Data were analyzed using chi-square tests and multivariate logistic regression to estimate adjusted odds ratios (AOR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results: The prevalence of hypertension among respondents was 37.5%. A significant association was found between family history and hypertension (p < 0.001), with individuals having a positive family history showing 3.2 times higher odds of hypertension (AOR = 3.24; 95% CI: 1.85–5.68). Physical activity also demonstrated a significant inverse association (p = 0.002), where participants with high activity levels had a 56% lower risk of hypertension compared to those with low activity (AOR = 0.44; 95% CI: 0.25–0.78). Interaction analysis indicated that physically active individuals with a family history still had a reduced risk compared to inactive counterparts. Conclusion: Family history of hypertension and physical activity were significantly associated with hypertension among pre-elderly adults. A positive family history increases the risk, while regular physical activity offers a protective effect. Health promotion programs targeting lifestyle modification and routine blood pressure screening are recommended to prevent early onset of hypertension in this age group.

Abstract

Introduction: Digital transformation has emerged as a strategic approach to improve efficiency, accessibility, and data-driven decision-making in public health services. However, the implementation of digital health initiatives often faces institutional, governance, and coordination challenges. In addition, technological adoption alone may not guarantee sustainable improvements without collaborative innovation among stakeholders. This study aimed to explore how digital transformation and collaborative innovation interact in shaping public health service delivery. Research Methodology: This study employed a qualitative research design using a multiple case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and document analysis involving 18 stakeholders, including policymakers, public health managers, healthcare professionals, information technology personnel, and community representatives. Participants were selected using purposive sampling based on their involvement in digital health initiatives. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis supported by NVivo software, with triangulation applied to enhance the credibility of findings. Results: The study identified four major themes influencing digital transformation in public health services: digital infrastructure readiness, collaborative innovation among stakeholders, institutional and governance challenges, and perceived impacts on service delivery. Participants emphasized that integrated health information systems improved reporting efficiency and program monitoring. However, challenges related to system interoperability, regulatory fragmentation, and institutional coordination were reported as barriers to effective implementation. Conclusion: Digital transformation in public health services is shaped by the interaction between technological infrastructure, collaborative innovation, and governance capacity. Strengthening digital health governance, promoting cross-sector collaboration, and improving institutional digital capacity are essential to ensure sustainable and effective digital health implementation.
