Abstract

Covid-19 is an acute respiratory tract infection caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus and has become a pandemic worldwide. Covid-19 has infected the entire world population including pregnant women. The vulnerability of pregnant women to infectious diseases is due to changes in body physiology and immune response mechanisms. One of the causes of transmission of Covid-19 in pregnant women is the lack of knowledge regarding Covid-19 and its prevention. This study mainly aims to determine the relationship between knowledge and Covid-19 preventive measures among pregnant women in Jambi City. This was an analytical observational study with cross-sectional design. The study population involved all pregnant women in Jambi City, with a total sample of 100 pregnant women, who were selected using a purposive sampling technique based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected using online questionnaire from December 2020 to March 2021. Data were analyzed using Chi-Square test. Results of this study showed that knowledge had a significant relationship with Covid-19 preventive measures among pregnant women in Jambi City with a p-value of 0.001 (OR=4.943). Based on the results of this study, it is expected that healthcare workers can provide health education to prevent the risk of Covid-19 transmission among at-risk groups.

Abstract

Puberty in adolescents is identified by the sign of monthly menstrual period. Although it occurs naturally, many adolescent girls suffer from dysmenorrhea. Dysmenorrhea affects daily activities and even causes absence from school. Herbal medicine is still an alternative therapy for dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls. Non-pharmacological therapy using turmeric-tamarind herb is easy to obtain and has no side effects. This study aims to determine the effect of routine consumption of turmeric-tamarind herb on dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls in Pondok Meja Village. This was an observational analytical study with cross-sectional design. The population in this study involved all adolescent girls in Pondok Meja Village, with a total sample of 76 adolescent girls, who were selected using a purposive sampling technique based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data was collected using online questionnaires from December 2021 to April 2022. Data collected were analyzed using Chi-Square test. Results showed that there was an effect of routine consumption of turmeric-tamarind herb on dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls. Adolescent girls who did not routinely consume turmeric-tamarind herb had a 0.035 times higher probability of experiencing primary dysmenorrhea than those who routinely consume turmeric-tamarind herb. Adolescent girls who routinely consumed turmeric-tamarind herb did not experience dysmenorrhea.
