Abstract

Dysmenorrhea is a common menstrual pain complaint experienced by adolescent girls, which can disrupt daily activities and reduce overall quality of life. One increasingly studied alternative for menstrual pain management is the use of herbal remedies, including red ginger (Zingiber officinale var. rubrum), known for its natural anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. This study aims to evaluate the effect of red ginger extract on the intensity of dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls in Kanigoro Village, Pagelaran District, Malang Regency. Using a quasi-experimental method with a one-group pre-test post-test design, 30 participants received an oral intervention of red ginger extract. The Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test showed a statistically significant difference in pain intensity before and after the intervention (p = 0.000), with pain levels decreasing from moderate and severe categories to mild or no pain. These findings suggest that red ginger extract is effective in alleviating menstrual pain and holds potential as a natural solution that can be widely applied within communities that embrace herbal-based traditions.

Abstract

Indonesia’s infant mortality rate remains a pressing public health challenge, recorded at 24 per 1,000 live births in 2021. Most infant deaths occur within the first month of life and are preventable through adequate parental knowledge of newborn care. This study aimed to analyze the effect of health education on mothers’ knowledge of newborn care at home. A quantitative pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach was employed. The sample consisted of 30 mothers with newborns aged 0–3 months, selected using purposive sampling. Knowledge was measured using a validated questionnaire before and after health education interventions delivered through counseling and group discussions. Data were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk normality test and the Paired T-Test. Results showed that prior to the intervention, 46.7% of mothers had insufficient knowledge, 36.6% had sufficient knowledge, and 16.7% had good knowledge. After the intervention, knowledge improved significantly, with 56.7% achieving good knowledge. The average score increased from 58.40 to 78.60, with a t-value of -9.84 and p = 0.000 (p < 0.05). The findings confirm that health education significantly enhances maternal knowledge of newborn care, supporting efforts to reduce infant mortality in Indonesia through improved home-based practices.

Abstract

Anemia during pregnancy is a significant health issue that contributes to the incidence of low-birth-weight (LBW) babies. At the Bere-Bere Community Health Center, the prevalence of LBW is 15%, higher than the national average, and the prevalence of anemia in pregnant women is 30%. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between hemoglobin (Hb) levels in pregnant women and the incidence of LBW at the center. A cross-sectional design was used with 30 pregnant women selected via purposive sampling. Hb levels were categorized into anemia (Hb <11 g/dL) and normal (Hb ≥11 g/dL), while birth weight was categorized into LBW (<2500 grams) and normal (≥2500 grams). Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate analysis with the Chi-Square test. Results showed that 43.3% of pregnant women experienced anemia and 33.3% of babies had LBW. Of the 13 anemic mothers, 61.5% gave birth to LBW babies, while only 11.8% of mothers with normal Hb levels had LBW babies. The Chi-Square test revealed a significant relationship (p = 0.004, p < 0.05) between maternal Hb levels and LBW incidence. In conclusion, maternal anemia is significantly associated with LBW, highlighting the need for interventions such as iron supplementation, nutrition education, and regular check-ups to prevent anemia and reduce LBW rates.
