Abstract

The increasing proportion of elderly followed by the increasing life expectancy has improved the prevalence of various chronic-degenerative diseases and dementia. The promotive efforts using exercise programs, such as Tai Chi and cognitive therapy, significantly increase the physical fitness, mental well-being, and cognitive function of the elderly. This research aimed to predict the effectiveness of exercise programs for particular groups living in nursing homes. The method of this research was a quasi-experiment with a control group design. Samples are elderly living in the nursing home. The research samples were 116 elderlies living in nursing homes in Jakarta and South Sumatra. They were selected using a random sampling strategy. Statistical tests employed a dependent t-test, independent t-test, and multiple linear regression test. This study revealed that the intervention group showed different cognitive function average values before and after implementing the exercise programs (p-value = 0.001). In contrast, the control group did not show any differences. The intervention and control groups showed different cognitive function mean values after applying the exercise program (p-value = 0.057). Another finding denoted that the length of stay in the nursing home affected the elderly's cognitive functions). This research recommends policymakers and healthcare personnel use the developed exercise program to perform complementary therapy, empower the elderly, and be replaced by many orders of the healthcare system.

Abstract

This study addresses the vital role of information as a reproductive health right and emphasizes the responsibility of family planning officers, including health workers, to disseminate accurate information for ensuring public reproductive health. The research focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of SITEPIS Contraception, an online information service designed to aid family planning officers in conveying contraceptive information. SITEPIS is a web application offering comprehensive information on contraception, medical eligibility criteria, and a live chat service. This study involves 28 family planning officers at sub-district and village levels in Bogor and West Lombok districts. Employing a descriptive research approach, the study includes socialization events introducing Sitepis Contraception, encouraging usage, and collecting officers' evaluations. Results indicate positive feedback from all officers, citing the website's appealing design, user-friendly accessibility, and essential features for effective information delivery. Despite challenges related to internet network support in certain areas, officers express willingness to use the SITEPIS website for their community information duties. Notably, while face-to-face interaction is preferred by most officers, SITEPIS contraception serves as a valuable tool for information dissemination. The study underscores the underutilization of online information as the primary method among family planning officers in Indonesia. Despite this, it recognizes the potential of online platforms, like SITEPIS, in reaching diverse societal levels. The findings emphasize the need for further examination of SITEPIS Contraception from the community's perspective, the primary target audience, to enhance its effectiveness. In conclusion, the study advocates for the integration of online information tools to empower family planning officers in fulfilling their crucial role as information providers.

Abstract

Anemia pada ibu hamil merupakan masalah kesehatan masyarakat yang signifikan di Indonesia. Anemia ditandai dengan rendahnya kadar hemoglobin dapat mengganggu suplai oksigen pada ibu hamil sehingga meningkatkan risiko terjadinya kelahiran prematur. Literature review ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi intervensi perilaku dalam mengurangi anemia pada ibu hamil berdasarkan studi yang telah dilakukan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode literature review dengan menelaah 7 jurnal diperoleh dari database terpercaya seperti PubMed, Science Direct, dan Proquest yang dipublikasikan dalam rentang waktu 2023-2025. Hasil analisis terhadap 7 artikel menunjukkan bahwa intervensi perilaku yang melibatkan pendekatan edukatif seperti konseling gizi, pemanfaatan teknologi seperti konseling kesehatan berbasis seluler, pendidikan kesehatan berbasis keluarga, terbukti berkontribusi secara signifikan terhadap peningkatan pengetahuan, sikap, dan praktik ibu hamil terhadap konsumsi zat besi dan asam folat, serta perubahan pola makan yang lebih sehat, telah menunjukkan peningkatan kadar hemoglobin dan penurunan tingkat anemia. Oleh karena itu, intervensi perilaku melalui pendidikan kesehatan dapat menjadi strategi yang efektif dalam mengurangi anemia pada ibu hamil. Kata Kunci: Anemia, Ibu hamil, Intervensi perilaku
