In Indonesia, the prevalence of back pain among third-trimester pregnant women is reported to be around 70%. Peppermint and ginger contain compounds that can help reduce this problem. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a two group pretest posttest design. The first group was given peppermint essential oil and the second group was given ginger essential oil. A total of 50 respondents were selected using purposive sampling and given the intervention 4 times over a period of 2 weeks. The Wilcoxon test results showed ­p-value of 0.000 in both groups, so both peppermint essential oil and ginger essential oil had a significant effect on reducing the intensity of back pain in third-trimester pregnant women. The Mann-Whitney test obtained a p-value of 0.149, indicating no difference between the peppermint essential oil and ginger groups in reducing pain intensity. Thus, peppermint and ginger essential oils are beneficial as non-pharmacological treatments

Abstract

Nyeri punggung bawah merupakan salah satu keluhan yang paling sering dialami oleh ibu hamil, terutama pada trimester III. Kondisi ini terjadi akibat perubahan fisiologis selama kehamilan, seperti peningkatan berat badan, perubahan pusat gravitasi tubuh, peregangan otot, serta peningkatan hormon relaksin yang menyebabkan pelonggaran ligamen. Nyeri punggung bawah yang tidak ditangani dapat mengganggu aktivitas sehari-hari, menurunkan kualitas tidur, serta memengaruhi kondisi psikologis ibu. Salah satu metode nonfarmakologis yang dapat digunakan untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut adalah pijat endorfin. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pijat endorfin terhadap intensitas nyeri punggung bawah pada ibu hamil trimester III di Wilayah Kerja UPT Puskesmas Buay Runjung Tahun 2026. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan desain pre-eksperimental melalui pendekatan One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. Populasi dalam penelitian ini berjumlah 39 ibu hamil trimester III, dengan teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan purposive sampling. Pengukuran intensitas nyeri dilakukan menggunakan Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Analisis data dilakukan secara univariat dan bivariat. Uji normalitas menggunakan Shapiro-Wilk, sedangkan analisis pengaruh menggunakan uji Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebelum diberikan pijat endorfin, sebagian besar responden mengalami nyeri sedang sebanyak 21 orang (53,8%) dan nyeri berat sebanyak 18 orang (46,2%), dengan rata-rata intensitas nyeri sebesar 6,46. Setelah diberikan pijat endorfin, sebagian besar responden mengalami nyeri ringan sebanyak 25 orang (64,1%) dan nyeri sedang sebanyak 14 orang (35,9%), dengan rata-rata intensitas nyeri menurun menjadi 3,18. Hasil uji Wilcoxon menunjukkan nilai Z = -5,742 dengan p-value= 0,000 (p < 0,05).

Abstract

Striae gravidarum is a skin condition experienced by the majority of pregnant women, with a global prevalence of 50–70% (WHO, 2024), 70–95% in Indonesia (2025), and a preliminary survey at TPMB Sumartini Purwakarta (2026) identifying approximately 40 cases. This condition affects mothers physically, psychologically, functionally, and in terms of quality of life. Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO), rich in lauric acid, and olive oil, containing oleic acid and antioxidants, are believed to help maintain skin elasticity. This study used a quasi-experimental two-group pretest–posttest design with 36 respondents (18 receiving VCO, 18 receiving olive oil). The severity of striae was measured using the Davey Score, and the data were analyzed using the Paired Samples T-Test and Independent Samples T-Test. The results showed a significant decrease in scores in both groups (p = 0.000). The mean score reduction in the VCO group was 2.00, while in the olive oil group it was 1.33. The Independent Samples T-Test showed a significant difference (p < 0.05), with VCO proving more effective. VCO was shown to be more effective than olive oil in reducing the severity of striae gravidarum; therefore, its routine use from the second trimester onward is recommended as a preventive measure to maintain skin elasticity, minimize the risk of striae, and improve the comfort and confidence of pregnant women.

Abstract

The 1- to 6 month age period is a phase of rapid growth for infants, making it necessary to monitor their weight changes regularly. Weight can serve as one parameter for assessing an infant’s growth and overall condition. Weight gain does not always proceed optimally for every infant, so stimulation is needed to support the growth process. One form of stimulation that can be applied to infants is baby massage. Massage through touch can help create a comfortable environment while supporting physiological processes related to the infant’s digestion and growth. This study aims “to determine the effect of baby massage on weight gain in infants aged 1-6 months at the Sumartini Midwife’s TPMB in 2026.” This is a quantitative study using a pre-experimental design that implements a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The study sample consisted of 32 infants aged 1-6 months selected through purposive sampling. Weight measurements were taken before and after baby massage sessions lasting 10-15 minutes, conducted twice a week. Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. The findings confirmed that before the baby massage, 21 infants (65.6%) were in the underweight category and 11 infants (34.4%) were in the normal category. After the baby massage, 31 infants (96.9%) were in the normal weight category and 1 infant (3.1%) was in the underweight category. The average weight increased from 5,018 grams before the intervention to 5,618 grams after the intervention, with an average increase of 600 grams. The results of the Wilcoxon test indicated a significant effect of baby massage on infants’ weight gain (p < 0.001). Therefore, it can be concluded that “baby massage has an effect on weight gain in infants aged 1-6 months at the Sumartini Midwife’s TPMB

Abstract

Vaginal discharge is one of the reproductive health problems frequently experienced by women of reproductive age (WRA), particularly when accompanied by changes in color, odor, itching, or other complaints. Basil leaves (Ocimum basilicum) contain bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, saponins, tannins, eugenol, and essential oils, which have been associated in previous studies with antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory activities. This study aimed to determine the effect of basil leaf decoction on vaginal discharge among WRA at TPMB Midwife L, Cikampek, in 2026. The study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design. The population consisted of 32 WRA experiencing vaginal discharge, and 30 respondents were selected using purposive sampling. The intervention consisted of 10 grams of basil leaves boiled in 500 mL of water and applied externally to the outer genitalia/vulva twice daily, in the morning and afternoon, for seven days. Measurements were conducted using a questionnaire/observation sheet before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk test and Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The mean vaginal discharge score decreased from 1.57 (SD 0.504) to 1.23 (SD 0.430). The Wilcoxon test produced p=0.000 (<0.05). Therefore, there was a significant difference in vaginal discharge before and after the intervention.
