Abstract

Background: The leading causes of maternal and infant mortality are complications during childbirth, such as hemorrhage and prolonged labor. The WHO recorded 69,000 cases of prolonged labor worldwide in 2020, contributing to 2.8% of maternal deaths globally and becoming a major cause of childbirth complications. The position during pushing is one of the determining factors for the success of labor. The semi-sitting position can provide comfort to the mother by helping her rest between contractions, shortening the birth canal, ensuring optimal oxygen supply from the mother to the baby, and utilizing gravity to assist in the baby's delivery process. Research Objective: To determine the effect of the semi-sitting position on the progress of second-stage labor in mothers delivering at Jamaliah Midwifery Clinic, Pidie Regency. Research Method: This research is an analytic survey with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study consisted of all mothers delivering at Jamaliah Midwifery Clinic in November 2024, totaling 33 individuals. The research was in November 2024. Research Results: The results indicated a significant effect of the semi-sitting position on the progress of labor at Jamaliah Midwifery Clinic, Pidie Regency, in 2024, with a ρ-value of 0.009. Suggestions: Health institutions and healthcare workers, particularly midwives, are encouraged to optimize maternal care during childbirth by facilitating mothers in choosing an effective labor position to ensure a safe and comfortable delivery process. Keywords: Semi-Sitting Position, Labor Progress

Abstract

Breast cancer is one of the major health problems affecting women, including adolescents. Early detection can be performed through Breast Self-Examination (BSE); however, the level of knowledge regarding BSE among adolescent girls remains relatively low. This study aimed to determine the effect of  leaflet-based educational media on improving students' knowledge of BSE at SMA Negeri 1 Baitussalam, Aceh Besar. This study employed a quasi-experimental design using a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. The population consisted of all female students at SMA Negeri 1 Baitussalam, with a sample of 61 participants selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test. The results showed that prior to the educational intervention, 37 respondents (60.7%) had a moderate level of knowledge, 15 respondents (24.6%) had good knowledge, and 9 respondents (14.7%) had poor knowledge regarding BSE. Following the  leaflet-based educational intervention, respondents' knowledge increased significantly, with 57 respondents (93.4%) demonstrating good knowledge and 4 respondents (6.6%) demonstrating moderate knowledge. No respondents remained in the poor knowledge category. The Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test indicated a statistically significant difference between pre-test and post-test scores (p-value = 0.000). These findings demonstrate that  leaflet-based educational media is effective in improving female students' knowledge of BSE. In conclusion,  leaflets can serve as an accessible, cost-effective, and practical health education tool to enhance awareness of early breast cancer detection. It is recommended that healthcare professionals and schools utilize  leaflets more frequently in adolescent health education programs and provide continuous guidance to encourage adolescents to perform BSE regularly

Abstract

The National Family Planning (FP) program aims to improve the quality of human resources through the use of contraceptive methods. The Intrauterine Device (IUD) is a long-term contraceptive method that is safe and highly effective compared to other methods. This study aimed to identify factors associated with the selection of IUD contraceptives among women of reproductive age. This research employed a descriptive analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. The independent variables included education level, knowledge, socio-cultural factors, and attitude, while the dependent variable was the use of IUD. The study was conducted at the Kuta Baro Public Health, from April 13 to April, 2026, with a sample of 86 respondents selected using purposive sampling. The results showed a significant relationship between education level (p=0.024), knowledge (p=0.034), and attitude (p=0.008) with the selection of IUD. Meanwhile, socio-cultural factors were not significantly associated (p=0.233). In conclusion, education level, knowledge, and attitude play important roles in the selection of IUD contraceptives, while socio-cultural factors do not show a significant relationship. It is recommended that healthcare providers enhance education and counseling regarding IUD to improve knowledge and positive attitudes among women of reproductive age, and that the community actively seek accurate information about contraceptive methods
