Abstract

There are several non-comorbid COVID-19 patients lead to mortality, but the risk factors that affect it have not been widely discussed in research. Treatment of COVID-19 patients focuses more on patients with comorbidities. This study aimed to check the effectiveness of Early Warning Scores (EWS) assessment to predict the mortality of non-comorbid COVID-19 patients. The method of the study was a case study research with a retrospective approach using secondary data, namely the patient's medical record status. This study took medical record data from 262 patients confirmed positive for non-comorbid COVID-19 who were hospitalized at Ngudi Waluyo Wlingi Hospital from July to September 2021. The multivariate data analysis used multiple linear regression tests to simultaneously test the relationship of the independent variables (age, gender, and Early warning score) to the dependent variable (mortality). The statistical analysis result showed the correlation between gender, age, and assessment with mortality, each of which has a p-value of 0.000, meaning that each of these variables has a relationship with mortality. If a simultaneous test (F test) is carried out, the p-value is 0.000, meaning that gender, age, and EWS simultaneously affect mortality. The coefficient of determination or R square of 0.773 means that gender, age, and EWS simultaneously influence mortality by 77.3%. Early Warning Scores (EWS) assessment influenced the mortality of non-comorbid COVID-19 patients. The highest contribution affecting mortality was the EWS assessment. The contribution of influence on sex and age is relatively the same.

Abstract

Optimal breastfeeding practices play a crucial role in enhancing the health of infants and children. However, increased anxiety among postpartum mothers can lead to higher cortisol levels. Moxibustion is a traditional therapy that has been shown to improve blood circulation, reduce discomfort, and influence the central nervous system by stimulating specific meridian points. This study aimed to examine the effect of moxibustion on cortisol levels in breastfeeding mothers. A quasi-experimental design with pretest and posttest was used. Participants were divided into two groups: an intervention group that received moxibustion and a control group that received acupuncture. A total of 32 breastfeeding mothers from Ngaliyan Public Health Center in Semarang participated in the study, with 16 individuals in each group. Moxibustion was applied to specific meridian points (CV17, LI4, SP6, ST16, ST18, ST36, BL17, and BL18). Cortisol levels were measured using the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) method, and data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test. The results showed no significant difference in cortisol levels between the two groups (p = 0.864). The average cortisol change was -0.063 in the intervention group and -0.113 in the control group. It was concluded that moxibustion had no significant effect on cortisol levels. Further studies are recommended to explore other factors that may influence cortisol levels in postpartum mothers.

Abstract

The importance of cadre roles is a key determinant in ensuring the smooth implementation of the Integrated Primary Service (ILP) Posyandu program. Cadres play essential roles and functions in Posyandu activities, one of which is carrying out the five-table system. However, in practice, the five-table system has not yet been implemented optimally. This condition may be influenced by several factors, including knowledge. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship among cadres’ knowledge of integrated primary health services (Posyandu ILP) with their skill in implementing the five-table system. A cross-sectional study was the method applied. 55 cadres made up the study population, and a total sampling strategy was used to include all of them in the sample. Questionnaires were used as tools for testing knowledge and skill. The Spearman Rank statistical test produced a positive correlation value of 0.704 and a p-value of 0.000 (α < 0.05). This indicates a significant relationship between knowledge about ILP Posyandu and cadre skills in carrying out the five-table system. The correlation coefficient reflects a strong positive correlation, meaning that as the level of knowledge increases, the skill level also tends to improve. These findings suggest that regular and comprehensive training sessions should be provided to enhance cadres’ knowledge of ILP and their ability to perform the five Posyandu tables effectively.

Abstract

Background: The postpartum period is a critical phase requiring continuous maternal healthcare to facilitate the early detection and management of postpartum complications. In Sintang Regency, the coverage of complete postpartum care visits decreased from 80.4% in 2023 to 78.9% in 2025. The implementation of Integrated Primary Health Care (PHC) is expected to strengthen continuity of maternal healthcare through integrated and community-based services. However, individual maternal characteristics may influence compliance with recommended postpartum care visits. Purpose: To analyze the association between maternal age and parity and compliance with postpartum care visits during the implementation of Integrated Primary Health Care (PHC). Method: This study employed a quantitative analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of 206 postpartum mothers who received postpartum care services in the working area of Sungai Durian Community Health Center from January to December 2025. Total sampling was used, and data collection was conducted from May to June 2026. The data were analyzed using bivariate analysis with a significance level of 0.05. Results: Of the 206 respondents, 80 (38.8%) were classified as compliant and 126 (61.2%) as non-compliant with postpartum care visits. The mean maternal age was 30.1 ± 8.7 years, with a range of 19–36 years. Respondents aged <20 years, 20–35 years, and >35 years accounted for 22.8%, 27.7%, and 49.5%, respectively. The respondents consisted of 37.9% primiparous, 36.4% multiparous, and 25.7% grand multiparous mothers. Maternal age was significantly associated with compliance with postpartum care visits (p < 0.001). Parity was also significantly associated with compliance with postpartum care visits (p = 0.009). Conclusion: Maternal age and parity were significantly associated with compliance with postpartum care visits during the implementation of Integrated Primary Health Care. Strengthening community-based monitoring and providing age- and parity-sensitive education may support improved continuity of postpartum care. Suggestion: Sungai Durian Community Health Center should strengthen coordination within Cluster 2 (Maternal and Child Health) and optimize community-based territorial monitoring to facilitate timely scheduling, reminders, and follow-up of postpartum care visits
