Abstract

Abstract. This study aims to evaluate the level of midwifery students’ mastery of human anatomy and physiology concepts as part of the core curriculum in health education. Anatomy and physiology serve as fundamental pillars in midwifery practice, as they are directly related to understanding the processes of pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. This research employed a descriptive quantitative approach through a survey involving 50 second- and fourth-semester students. The results showed that second-semester students had a higher level of mastery (77.75%) compared to fourth-semester students (68%). Furthermore, male students demonstrated a higher level of understanding (81.25%) than female students (74.52%). These differences may be influenced by learning styles, motivation, and academic experience. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods, including mean and percentage calculations, to compare levels of conceptual understanding across student groups. The findings provide important implications for developing more adaptive learning strategies in anatomy and physiology courses within midwifery programs.Keywords: anatomy, concept mastery, human physiology, midwifery, students

Abstract

Breast milk (ASI) is the primary and most ideal source of nutrition for newborns. However, challenges in breastfeeding such as low milk production and limited knowledge among postpartum mothers about oxytocin massage pose significant concerns. This community service program aimed to improve both knowledge and breast milk production through educational sessions and hands-on practice of oxytocin massage. The methods used included health counseling, demonstration, and evaluation through pre-tests and post-tests. The activity was conducted in RW9/RT1, Bulurokeng Subdistrict, targeting six married couples. The results indicated a significant improvement in participants' knowledge, with the average pre-test score of 30 increasing to 80 in the post-test. Oxytocin massage proved effective in stimulating the release of oxytocin and prolactin hormones, which play key roles in breast milk production. This educational intervention is expected to be implemented sustainably by health cadres and family members to support the success of exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract

Stunting is one indicator of chronic malnutrition caused by insufficient nutrient intake over a long period of time. This condition is not only related to inadequate food intake, but also influenced by the low quality of food consumed. The purpose of this study was to analyze the causes of stunting in terms of food security. A cross-sectional study design was used in this study. The research was conducted in the working area of the Cempaka Inpatient Health Center. The research was conducted in April 2024. The research population consisted of mothers who had toddlers in the working area of the Cempaka Inpatient Health Center. The sample consisted of 58 respondents. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The research instrument used a research questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate methods. The results showed a relationship between food security (p value: 0.038) and the incidence of stunting. This study recommends improving food security by ensuring the adequacy of family food needs through coping strategies and paying attention to household expenditures by prioritizing the nutritional needs of toddlers. Keywords: Toddlers, Food Security, Stunting
