Abstract

Background: Stunting is still one of the main health problems in Indonesia that has an impact on physical growth, cognitive development, and the quality of human resources in the future. The use of digital technology, especially mobile-based health applications, is one of the innovative strategies in supporting stunting prevention efforts. This study aimed to analyze the effect of assistance in the use of SCATION (Stunting Care Application) applications on improving the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of mothers under five in stunting prevention.Methods: The study used a quasi-experimental design with a one group pretest-posttest with control group design. The sample amounted to 128 mothers under five who were divided into an intervention group (64 people) and a control group (64 people) using the proportionate simple random sampling technique.Results: Data was collected through knowledge questionnaires, early interventions, digital literacy, and application usage logs, then analyzed using the Chi-Square bivariate test and the differential test (t-test/Wilcoxon). The results showed that assistance in the use of the SCATION application had a significant effect on increasing maternal knowledge about stunting (p < 0.05), changes in stunting prevention attitudes and behaviors, and the sustainability of application use after the intervention period. Mothers with good digital literacy, family support, and adequate internet access were more consistent in using apps and showed better preventive behaviors than the control group.Conclusion: SCATION application assistance has proven to be more effective and efficient than conventional methods in improving stunting prevention efforts in mothers under five. Digital technology-based interventions are worthy of being used as an innovative strategy in supporting the national program to accelerate stunting reduction.

Abstract

Background: Diabetic ulcers are a common complication of diabetes mellitus that often occur on the legs and feet and are difficult to heal because of poor circulation and uncontrolled blood glucose, which can progress to infection and gangrene. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of moist wound healing dressing and conventional wound care on the healing of the inflammatory phase of diabetic ulcers.Methods: A quasi-experimental, two-group pre-test post-test design was used. Thirty patients with diabetic ulcers at Yunita Wound Care, Manado, were assigned by total sampling to an experimental group (n=15, moist wound healing dressing) and a control group (n=15, conventional wound care). Inflammatory-phase healing (redness, heat, pain, swelling, functional loss) was assessed on day 1 (pre-test) and day 3 (post-test) using a validated questionnaire and analyzed with the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and Independent Samples T-Test.Results: Post-test scores were significantly lower in the experimental group than the control group for redness (1.47 vs 2.47, p=0.001), heat (1.33 vs 2.20, p=0.004), and swelling (1.47 vs 2.27, p=0.000). No significant between-group difference was found for pain (p=0.158) or functional loss (p=0.702).Conclusion: Moist wound healing dressing is more effective than conventional wound care in accelerating inflammatory-phase healing of diabetic ulcers, particularly in reducing redness, heat, and swelling.
