Abstract

Exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months has been proven to be important for maternal and infant health. However, the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in Indonesia is still low. Data shows that coverage in Indonesia is only 65.8% below the target of 80%. One of the main causes is the lack of knowledge of mothers about the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding. For this reason, education that is easy to access and understand, such as leaflets, is needed. Leaflets are considered effective because they are practical, can be reread at any time, and are very helpful for mothers in areas with limited digital technology. This study aims to determine the effect of counseling using leaflets on increasing maternal knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding. The research design used was a quasi-experimental with a one group pre-post test approach. A total of 31 mothers who had babies aged 0–24 months were involved as respondents selected using a purposive sampling technique. This technique was used because researchers needed subjects who specifically met the inclusion criteria, namely having babies in that age range, being present during the activity, and being willing to take part in the entire series of studies. This study has obtained ethical approval from the relevant institutions. The research instrument was a questionnaire that had been validated and proven to be reliable. The Wilcoxon test results showed a significant increase in knowledge from 51.61% to 93.33% (p < 0.000), indicating that the leaflet is effective as an educational medium. Although this study is limited to the number of respondents and location, the results provide an illustration that leaflets if well designed and delivered by health workers can be a powerful communication tool in supporting exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract

Acute Respiratory Tract Infection (ARI) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in toddlers in developing countries, including Indonesia. Toddlers are particularly vulnerable to ARI because their immune systems and respiratory tracts are not yet fully developed. One significant yet often overlooked environmental factor is parental smoking at home. Based on these conditions, this study was conducted to determine the relationship between parental smoking habits and the incidence of ARI in toddlers. This research is a quantitative analytical study with a cross-sectional approach involving 30 parents with toddlers in RT 03 RW 02, Sukaraya Village, within the working area of the Sukaraya Community Health Center (UPTD). A total sampling technique was used to obtain a comprehensive sample. Data were collected through interviews using a structured checklist instrument, then analyzed using the Chi-Square test. The results of the analysis showed that of the 17 parents who smoked, 47.1% of toddlers experienced ARI. In contrast, of the 13 parents who did not smoke, only 7.7% of toddlers experienced ARI. Statistical testing showed a p-value of 0.042 (p<0.05), indicating a significant association between parental smoking habits and the incidence of ARI in toddlers. This finding underscores the importance of family health education and interventions, particularly in reducing exposure to cigarette smoke at home, as an effort to prevent ARI and continuously protect toddler health.
