Abstract

Hypertension is a state of blood pressure above normal that has an impact on increasing morbidity and mortality rates. Hypertension generally makes sufferers have a low life expectancy and still choose to coexist with hypertension. In increasing life expectancy, hypertensive patients need high self-efficacy . A patient with high self-efficacy had twice the chance of showing better adherence to treatment when compared to patients with low self-efficacy. Objective to find out the relationship between self-efficacy and adherence to treatment for hypertension. This study is included in an observational analytical study with a cross sectional design approach. The subjects of this study were selected using a random sampling technique using 90 subjects who suffered from hypertension. The method used to measure self-efficacy was using the Medication Adherence Self-Efficacy Scale-Revision (MASES-R) and measuring medication adherence was using the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale -8 (MMAS-8). The validity test results showed that 8 questions were valid (r = 0.300), while the reliability test indicated that the MASES-R questionnaire (r = 0.990) and the MMAS-8 questionnaire (r = 0.674) were considered reliable. The results showed that there was a relationship between self-efficacy and treatment compliance in hypertensive patients at the Bambu Apus Health Center where P-Value = 0.01 = < (0.05) with a contingency coefficient value of 0.638 meaning that the strength between variables at a very strong level with the direction of a positive relationship. There is a relationship between self-efficacy and adherence to treatment for hypertension (P-Value < 0.05).

Abstract

Growth problems in toddlers, particularly stunting, remain a significant nutritional concern that requires serious attention. One strategy to improve nutritional intake in children is the provision of appealing supplementary foods, such as fruit-based ice cream. Avocados contain energy and nutrients that may help support nutritional adequacy and weight gain in stunted toddlers. This study aimed to determine the effect of avocado ice cream consumption on weight gain in stunted toddlers. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental two-group design was employed, consisting of an intervention group and a control group. The study included 36 toddlers, with 18 participants assigned to the intervention group and 18 to the control group. Body weight was measured before and after the intervention. Differences in weight gain between the intervention and control groups were analyzed using an independent-samples t-test at a significance level of ? = 0.05. The mean weight gain in the intervention group was 610 g, whereas the control group experienced a mean weight gain of 205.56 g. The independent-samples t-test yielded a two-tailed p-value of 0.001 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant difference in weight gain between the two groups. The provision of avocado ice cream was associated with significantly greater weight gain among stunted toddlers. Therefore, avocado ice cream may serve as an appealing supplementary food option to support weight gain in toddlers with stunting.
