Abstract

Health services in Indonesia are one of the many components of the health system that have direct contact with the community. The quality of health services is so important because it makes it easier for people to carry out health checks. Patient satisfaction can also be obtained from the quality of health services received from the health center. The quality of services provided to service recipients can affect their satisfaction with the health services provided by service providers. This study aimed to determine the relationship between each dimension of the quality of health services and patient satisfaction at the Sail Health Center in Pekanbaru City. This research is included in quantitative research with an analytic survey and cross-sectional study approach. The number of samples in this study was 95 outpatients at the Sail Health Center in Pekanbaru City. According to the statistical results of the Fisher's Exact test, there is a relationship between the quality of health services and outpatient satisfaction at the Sail Health Center, Pekanbaru City. Suggestions that can be given are the allocation of health workers by duties and responsibilities, such as the number of health workers by duties and responsibilities and the need for Puskesmas Sail to conduct regular patient satisfaction surveys to evaluate the quality of services at Puskesmas Sail.

Abstract

Ear, Nose, Throat (ENT) and pulmonary diseases such as pharyngitis, sinusitis, and bronchitis are common health issues that significantly contribute to global morbidity, especially among vulnerable populations. Herbal-based preventive approaches are gaining popularity due to their natural origin, minimal side effects, and potential to enhance immune function. This study aims to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of recent literature on the effectiveness of herbal remedies as preventive agents against ENT and pulmonary infections, using the PRISMA protocol. Data were collected from PubMed, Scopus, and ScienceDirect for the period 2019–2024. Five studies met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed quantitatively. The results indicate that herbs such as ginger (Zingiber officinale), eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus), a combination of propolis and Echinacea purpurea, licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra), and Phyllanthus niruri demonstrate significant preventive effects against upper respiratory tract infections, with an average effectiveness ranging from 36% to 46% and a combined mean of 40%. The forest plot analysis shows the highest effect from the propolis-echinacea combination (46%), followed by ginger (43%) and licorice (40%). These findings support the potential role of certain herbs as preventive agents; however, larger-scale clinical trials are needed for further validation. The integration of herbal medicine into modern preventive practices requires solid evidence-based approaches and clear regulation.
