Abstract

Background: Citronella (Cymbopogon nardus L.) is one of Indonesia’s most fertile herbal plants. It contains antibacterial compounds and can be used as a liquid facial wash. With the correct formulation, citronella extract facial wash can effectively remove dirt and sebum on the face and prevent the growth of acne-causing bacteria.Objective: This research aims to obtain the optimal formula for citronella extract liquid facial wash.Method: Citronella extract was formulated into the liquid facial wash with concentrations of 9, 18, and 24%, and then the physical stability of the preparation was tested for 3 weeks. After that, the results are compared with the standards that have been set.Results: The citronella extract contained saponins, polyphenols, and flavonoids. The three liquid facial wash formulations made from citronella grass extract had a thick, liquid texture, a unique smell, a brown color, a viscosity range of 948-2,506 cPs, a potential hydrogen range of 4.8–5.97, an adhesive test range of 1.2-2.58 seconds, a foam height range of 0-107 mm, and a spreading power of 5–6.4 cm.Conclusion: The conclusion is that all stability tests for citronella extract liquid facial wash formulations meet the requirements except for the foam height test. The formulation that differs in extract concentration by 24% is the most optimal.

Abstract

Uterine involution is an important process indicating maternal recovery during the postpartum period. The speed of uterine involution is influenced by various factors, including the mother's age, number of previous births (parity), exclusive breastfeeding, implementation of early initiation of breastfeeding (IMD), and early mobilization after giving birth. Breastfeeding has a crucial role in accelerating uterine involution, because through this process, the baby's sucking on the mother's nipple stimulates uterine contractions. IMD, namely the baby's first breastfeeding immediately after birth, is one important step in supporting this process. Apart from that, parity or the number of previous births also influences the uterine involution process. In mothers giving birth for the first time, the involution process can take place a little differently compared to mothers who have given birth before. This study aims to analyze the relationship between parity and early initiation of breastfeeding (IMD) with uterine involution in postpartum mothers at the PKU Muhammadiyah Mayong Jepara Hospital. Researchers used a quantitative type of research with a cross sectional design. This research used a sample of 36 respondents calculated using the Slovin formula. The instruments used in this research were questionnaires and observation sheets. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test. The results showed that the average patient age was 27 years, most respondents had completed high school education with a frequency of 27 people (75%). The correlation test concluded that there was no relationship between parity (p value = 0.582) with uterine involution in postpartum mothers and there was a relationship between IMD (p = 0.011) with uterine involution in postpartum women at the PKU Muhammadiyah Mayong Jepara Hospital.

Abstract

Labor pain is a physiological process due to uterine contractions which is often considered the most uncomfortable and frightening experience for mothers in labor. Suboptimal pain management can increase the risk of complications during labor. Non-pharmacological approaches, such as deep breathing relaxation techniques and the use of peanut balls, can be an alternative to reduce pain. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of peanut balls and deep breathing relaxation techniques on reducing labor pain in the active phase of the first stage. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a two-group pretest-posttest design, and was conducted at the Ki Ageng Getas PendowoGubug Hospital in May–June 2025. A total of 50 respondents were divided into two groups purposively: the peanut ball intervention group (n=25) and the deep breathing relaxation technique group (n=25). The level of pain was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) before and after the intervention. The Shapiro-Wilk normality test showed that the data were not normally distributed (pretest p=0.000; posttest p=0.000), so the analysis between groups was carried out using the Mann-Whitney Test. The results showed a significant difference between the two groups (p=0.006), with the peanut ball group showing a higher average ranking. These results indicate that the peanut ball intervention is more effective in reducing labor pain than deep breathing relaxation techniques.   Abstrak Nyeri persalinan merupakan proses fisiologis akibat kontraksi uterus yang kerap dianggap sebagai pengalaman paling tidak nyaman dan menakutkan bagi ibu bersalin. Pengelolaan nyeri yang tidak optimal dapat meningkatkan risiko komplikasi selama proses persalinan. Pendekatan nonfarmakologis, seperti teknik relaksasi napas dalam dan penggunaan peanut ball, dapat menjadi alternatif untuk mengurangi nyeri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektivitas peanut ball dan teknik relaksasi napas dalam terhadap penurunan nyeri persalinan kala I fase aktif. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain quasi experiment dengan rancangan two group pretest-posttest design, dan dilaksanakan di RSUD Ki Ageng Getas Pendowo Gubug pada Mei–Juni 2025. Sebanyak 50 responden dibagi menjadi dua kelompok secara purposive: kelompok intervensi peanut ball (n=25) dan kelompok teknik relaksasi napas dalam (n=25). Tingkat nyeri diukur menggunakan Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) sebelum dan sesudah intervensi. Uji normalitas Shapiro-Wilk menunjukkan data tidak berdistribusi normal (pretest p=0,000; posttest p=0,000), sehingga analisis antar kelompok dilakukan dengan Uji Mann-Whitney. Hasil menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan signifikan antara kedua kelompok (p=0,006), dengan kelompok peanut ball menunjukkan rata-rata ranking lebih tinggi. Hasil ini mengindikasikan bahwa intervensi peanut ball lebih efektif dalam menurunkan nyeri persalinan dibandingkan teknik relaksasi napas dalam. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini, disarankan agar tenaga kesehatan, khususnya bidan, dapat mengimplementasikan penggunaan peanut ball sebagai salah satu metode nonfarmakologis dalam manajemen nyeri persalinan.
