Abstract

Background: Prolonged labor is one of the most common complications experienced by women during childbirth and remains a significant contributor to maternal and neonatal morbidity. Globally, prolonged labor is estimated to occur in approximately 17% of all deliveries, with nearly 70% of these cases requiring medical interventions such as cesarean section. In Indonesia, the incidence of prolonged labor is estimated at around 9% of all deliveries. Maternal factors such as age and parity are considered important determinants influencing labor outcomes. Therefore, identifying the relationship between these factors and prolonged labor is essential to improve maternal health services. This study aimed to determine the association between maternal age and parity and the incidence of prolonged labor at the Kassi-Kassi Community Health Center in 2024. Methods: This study employed an analytic approach using a cross-sectional design. The population consisted of mothers who delivered at the Kassi-Kassi Community Health Center in 2024. A total of 23 mothers were selected as the study sample using probability (random) sampling techniques. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test to examine the relationship between maternal age and parity with the incidence of prolonged labor. A significance level of p < 0.05 was applied. Results: The analysis showed a significant association between maternal age and the incidence of prolonged labor (p = 0.001; p < 0.05). Additionally, maternal parity was significantly associated with prolonged labor (p = 0.002; p < 0.05). These findings indicate that both maternal age and parity are important factors related to the occurrence of prolonged labor at the Kassi-Kassi Community Health Center. Conclusion: Maternal age and parity are significantly associated with the incidence of prolonged labor at the Kassi-Kassi Community Health Center in 2024. Strengthening maternal care services, particularly through closer monitoring of high-risk pregnant women, is recommended to reduce the occurrence of prolonged labor and improve maternal health outcomes.

Abstract

Background: Breastfeeding is the best feeding method for infants. The coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in the Upt Puskesmas Bontonompo 1 work area remains below target due to insufficient milk production. Lactagogum, a substance found in papaya, is known to enhance breast milk production.Objective: This study aims to investigate the relationship between papaya fruit consumption during pregnancy and smooth breastfeeding in postpartum mothers in the Upt Puskesmas Bontonompo 1 work area.Research Method: This study is an observational study with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 48 respondents selected using purposive sampling based on inclusion criteria in the work area of UPT Puskesmas Bontonompo 1, Gowa Regency. Data analysis was conducted using bivariate analysis with the Mann-Whitney test.Results: The Mann-Whitney test results showed a p value 0.000 < 0,05, indicating a significant relationship between papaya fruit consumption during pregnancy and smooth breastfeeding in postpartum mothers.Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between papaya fruit consumption during pregnancy and smooth breastfeeding in postpartum mothers in the Upt Puskesmas Bontonompo 1 work area.

Abstract

Background: One of the leading causes of maternal mortality in Indonesia in 2022 was postpartum hemorrhage, accounting for 741 cases. In addition to causing death, postpartum hemorrhage can lead to complications that affect the health of both the mother and baby in subsequent pregnancies and deliveries. Postpartum hemorrhage is a national-level issue and can be caused by several risk factors such as age, parity, and anemia.Objective: To analyze the factors associated with the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage.Research Method: This study employed a retrospective analytical method with a Case-Control Study approach, involving 71 postpartum mothers who experienced hemorrhage as cases and 71 postpartum mothers who did not experience hemorrhage as controls at RSUD Lamaddukkelleng Wajo from January 1 to December 31, 2023. Samples were selected using simple random sampling based on inclusion and exclusion criteria.Results: The Chi-Square statistical test results showed p-values for age (0.002 < 0.05), parity (0.001 < 0.05), and anemia (0.002 < 0.05). These results indicate a significant relationship between age, parity, and anemia with the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage.Conclusion: To reduce the Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) due to postpartum hemorrhage, it is crucial for healthcare providers to improve the quality of care, especially for expectant mothers. By adopting a more comprehensive and preventive approach, we can identify and address risk factors early on, thereby reducing the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage and ensuring maternal safety. This effort will not only enhance overall maternal health but also strengthen the healthcare system's ability to effectively manage critical cases.
