Abstract

Anemia is one of the health problems that is still a serious concern in Indonesia, especially in adolescent girls. Adolescent girls are included in the high-risk group of suffering from anemia because they are in a period of rapid growth and begin to experience menstruation, so the need for iron increases.

The postpartum period is crucial and vulnerable in a mother's life, beginning after delivery and lasting up to six weeks postpartum. During this period, mothers experience physiological and psychological changes that require intensive attention and care to prevent complications. Health cadres play a crucial role in reaching the community, especially postpartum mothers. Cadres are tasked with conducting home visits, providing education, monitoring for danger signs, and referring mothers to health facilities if complaints or complications are found. This role is very strategic in increasing mothers' understanding of the importance of self-care during the postpartum period. This study aims to determine the role of cadres in postpartum care and early detection of complications in postpartum maternal risk cases at the Sikumana Community Health Center in Kupang City. This study used a descriptive design with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study was 69 Posyandu cadres. Data analysis used univariate analysis with a frequency distribution.

Abstract

Praktik tradisional pasca melahirkan diyakini penting bagi kesehatan ibu dan bayi di hampir semua daerah di Indonesia. Makna budaya dan sosial yang mendalam melekat pada praktik yang berkaitan dengan perilaku, aktivitas, dan kepercayaan dan tradisional yang berbeda-beda di setiap wilayah. Penelitian sebelumnya telah menunjukkan beragam interpretasi terhadap praktik tradisional pasca melahirkan oleh masyarakat. Di Pulau Timor Provinsi Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT), kepercayaan dan praktik asuhan kebidanan ibu pasca melahirkan belum banyak terdokumentasikan. Peristiwa eksistensial ini mempengaruhi kesehatan ibu dan perawatan bayi baru lahir. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain etnografi yang bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan kepercayaan dan praktik tradisional pasca melahirkan dalam konteks sosiokultural di daerah pedesaan (dua desa) di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Weliman dan Puskesmas Alas, di Pulau Timor Kabupaten Malaka NTT. Pengumpulan data dilakukan pada bulan Januari – Juli 2019. Komite Penelitian Kesehatan Fakultas Kesehatan Masyarakat Universitas Airlangg. Metode analisis data kualitatif enam langkah digunakan. Tiga tema muncul dari praktik tradisional pasca melahirkan: 1) Tradisi pengurungan di dalam rumah setalah melahirkan (hatuka ha’i); 2) Mengurangi pekerjaan rumah tangga; 3) Larangan berhubungan seks. Variasi kepercayaan dan tradisi pasca melahirkan dipengaruhi oleh konteks sosiokultural setempat. Perubahan fisiologis pada ibu mendasari berbagai kepercayaan, ritual dan praktik pada periode pascakelahiran. Praktik-praktik ini seringkali menyebabkan ibu nifas tidak mengakses layanan kesehatan pasca melahirkan. Bidang ini memerlukan penelitian yang lebih sensitif secara budaya dan sistematis untuk memberikan asuhan kebidanan pasca melahirkan yang sensitif secara budaya.

Abstract

Early childhood (0–6 years) is a critical period during which children's brain development occurs rapidly, reaching approximately 80% of adult capacity by the age of 3 years. This development is greatly influenced by stimulation from an early age, both cognitively, language, social-emotional, and motoric. Early stimulation has been proven to play a major role in maximizing children's development potential, preventing delays, and increasing readiness to enter primary education. Children receiving regular stimulation have higher cognitive development scores and a lower risk of delays. This research aims to determine the relationship between parental knowledge and attitudes and the behavior of stimulating children's growth and development at Posyandu Rindu Sejahtera, East Penfui Village. This research uses a quantitative design with a correlational analytical approach. The population in this study were all parents who had children aged 0–5 years and were registered as active participants at Posyandu Rindu Sejahtera, as many as 52 people, with a total population sample. Data analysis uses univariate analysis to describe the frequency distribution of each variable, and bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test. The results of the research show that there is a significant relationship between parental knowledge and attitudes and the behavior of stimulating children's growth and development.

Abstract

The growth and development of children under five is a crucial phase that affects the quality of life in the future. Early Growth and Development Stimulation, Detection, and Intervention (SDIDTK) is one of the important strategies to identify and deal with growth and development problems from an early age. The low knowledge and skills of Posyandu cadres and parents in conducting SDIDTK in East Penfui Village, Central Kupang District, Kupang Regency is one of the factors that can hinder early detection and proper handling. Therefore, empowering Posyandu cadres and parents is a strategic step to increase their capacity to support children's growth and development. This activity aims to improve the knowledge and skills of Posyandu cadres and parents in stimulating, detecting, and intervening early in the growth and development of children under five. The implementation method includes counseling on the concept and importance of SDIDTK, demonstration of implementation techniques, and direct practicum by participants. Participants were given the opportunity to try the practice of SDIDTK directly with the assistance of the facilitator. Partners in this activity are all parents who have 15 toddlers and 5 Posyandu cadres in East Penfui Village, Central Kupang District, Kupang Regency. Evaluation was carried out through observation of participant involvement, questions and answers, and assessment of practical skills. The results of the evaluation showed that participants participated in the activity enthusiastically, were able to master the steps of SDIDTK well, and understood the importance of an active role in monitoring children's growth and development.
