Abstract

Background: Increasing the nutritional status of the community is one of the development priorities in the 2015-2019 National Medium Term Development Plan (RPJMN) document. Based on the results of the 2018 Basic Health Research (Riskesdas), most of the main targets are estimated to not be able to achieve the target. The problem of malnutrition in women of childbearing age is seen in the high rate of Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED). In non-pregnant women, the CED rate was 14.4% and 17.3% in pregnant women. Methodology: Research carried out using an observational approach taken at the same time aims to study the relationship between the independent variable, namely macronutrient intake and the dependent variable LILA of pregnant women by conducting a 3 × 24 hour food recall of pregnant women's food intake. The sample in this study was 92 people, the sampling technique used the Fisher exact technique. The statistical test used the person correlation test. Research Results: The results of research conducted in the working area of the Pasar Minggu District Health Center experienced a nutritional status of 73 (79.3%). Pregnant women with sufficient carbohydrate intake were 73 with a percentage (79.3%), pregnant women with sufficient fat intake were 70 with a percentage (76.1%) and pregnant women with sufficient protein intake were 61 with a percentage (66.3%) Based on the Fisher exact statistical test, Statistical relationship between macronutrient intake and nutritional status of pregnant women (p = 0.001) Suggestion: It is hoped that pregnant women can anticipate or prevent poor nutritional status by consuming foods containing carbohydrates, proteins and fats in balance with consultation with health authorities. Health workers should actively provide health information to pregnant women, especially regarding food intake which is important for pregnant women.

Abstract

Anemia is becoming more common among teenage girls worldwide, including in Indonesia. Complications like chronic stress and exhaustion, which can result in weakness, dizziness, blurred vision, and a pale face, are among the clinical signs that can arise when the Hb level falls below the normal range. A person's perception of their place in daily life in relation to the culture and values of their community, as well as their own objectives, expectations, desires, and concerns, is known as their quality of life (QoL). The purpose of this study is to ascertain the connection between adolescent girls' quality of life and hemoglobin levels in the Singkawang Tengah 1 Public Health Center's service area. This study combines analytical quantitative research with descriptive-correlational research. This study is cross-sectional, descriptive-correlational, and of the analytical quantitative research type. This study's sample was drawn from the entire population of 110 respondents using total sampling. The WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire and an HB meter for measuring hemoglobin levels were the tools used in this investigation. The chi-square test was used to analyze the data. The study's findings show that hemoglobin levels and teenage girls' quality of life are significantly correlated (p<0.05), with a value of 0.000. The quality of life of teenage girls is found to be correlated with hemoglobin levels.

Abstract

Sleep disturbances are common among perimenopausal women due to hormonal fluctuations and psychosocial changes, which may negatively affect physical health, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life. Non-pharmacological interventions are increasingly recommended in primary health care settings to manage sleep problems safely and effectively. This study aimed to examine the relationship between lavender aromatherapy and sleep quality among perimenopausal women in a primary health care setting. A quasi-experimental study with a pretest–posttest control group design was conducted involving 60 perimenopausal women aged 45–55 years who were divided into an intervention group (n = 30) and a control group (n = 30). Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The intervention group received lavender aromatherapy via inhalation using a diffuser for 30 minutes before bedtime over seven consecutive days, while the control group received no aromatherapy intervention. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test and the Mann–Whitney U Test. The results showed a significant improvement in sleep quality in the intervention group, with the mean PSQI score decreasing from 12.00 (SD = 1.89) to 6.23 (SD = 2.73) (p < 0.001), whereas no significant change was observed in the control group (p = 0.349). Posttest comparison revealed a significant difference in sleep quality between the intervention and control groups (p < 0.001). In conclusion, lavender aromatherapy is associated with improved sleep quality among perimenopausal women and may serve as an effective complementary intervention in primary health care settings.

Abstract

Weight Faltering in toddlers is an early indicator of nutritional status disorders that can impact a child's growth and development. This condition reflects an imbalance between nutritional intake, metabolic needs, and infectious disease factors. In Indonesia, cases of Weight Faltering in toddlers are still quite high and are a concern in efforts to improve toddler nutrition, including in the Jakarta area. The objective was to analyze factors related to the incidence of Weight Faltering in toddlers. These factors included a history of exclusive breastfeeding, dietary patterns, history of infectious diseases, and immunization history. The study used a quantitative descriptive correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population was 87 toddlers in the Jakarta area, using a total sampling technique. Data were collected through weight measurements, interviews using questionnaires, 24-hour dietary recall forms, and searches of KIA books. Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate methods. The results of the bivariate analysis showed that dietary patterns (p = 0.002) and history of infectious diseases (p = <0.001) had a significant relationship with the incidence of Weight Faltering in toddlers. Toddlers with poor diets and a history of infectious diseases are at higher risk of experiencing poor Weight Faltering . Weight Faltering in toddlers is influenced by diet and a history of infectious diseases. A history of exclusive breastfeeding and immunizations are not directly related to the incidence of poor or stable weight faltering.

Abstract

Particularly in primary healthcare settings, healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) continue to be considered a serious threat to maternal and neonatal care. In order to lower the risk of infection, midwives are critical for the implementation of Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) strategies. However, midwives' adherence to IPC procedures is frequently inconsistent and might be impacted by personal characteristics like attitude and knowledge.The purpose of this study proved to determine how midwives' attitudes and knowledge related to infection prevention and control (IPC) practices in Mempawah Regency, West Kalimantan, Indonesia. Midwives employed by Mempawah Regency's district health office and primary healthcare facilities participated in a quantitative cross-sectional study. Purposive sampling was used to identify 76 midwives within total. A validated and structured questionnaire measuring IPC practices, knowledge, and attitude was used to collect data. The Chi-square test was used to analyze the data at a significance level of p < 0.05. It was found that midwives who had positive attitudes and good knowledge were more likely to apply IPC practices correctly. A statistically significant correlation (p < 0.05) was found between knowledge and IPC practices, as well as between attitude and IPC practices. Midwives' infection prevention and control practices have a significant correlation with their knowledge and attitudes. To enhance IPC implementation in primary healthcare settings, encouragement and ongoing training must be strengthened.

Abstract

Background: Adolescence is a transitional period from childhood to adulthood characterized by physical, psychological, and social changes, including the biological functioning of the reproductive organs. Menstrual pain that is not promptly managed can affect an individual’s mental and physical functioning, thus requiring immediate intervention through pharmacological or non-pharmacological therapies. Acupressure therapy can be used as a treatment for dysmenorrhea by applying massage techniques to specific meridian points on the body. One of the points that can be used to relieve dysmenorrhea is the Hegu (LI4) point. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of acupressure therapy on dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls at SMPN 5 Jagoi Babang. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretet-posttest two-group design approach. The sample consisted of adolescent girls selected using a total sampling technique. The participants were divided into two groups: the control group received no intervention, while the experimental group received acupressure therapy at the LI4 point. The paired t test was used for within-group analysis, and the independen t test was used for between-group analysis. Results: The results showed that acupressure therapy was effective in reducing dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls (p < 0.000). The administration of LI4 acupressure therapy was more effective than no intervention (p = 0.000). Conclusion: Acupressure therapy at the LI4 point is clinically effective and statistically significant in reducing dysmenorrhea compared to no intervention. Keywords: Adolescents, LI4 (Hegu) Acupressure, Dysmenorrhea
