Abstract

Cesarean section is an artificial delivery procedure involving an incision in the abdominal wall and uterus, which can cause pain at the suture site for up to six months. Binahong leaves are known to have properties that accelerate wound healing, both externally and internally. This study aims to determine the effect of binahong leaf extract on wound healing after cesarean section at the Sambas Regional General Hospital, Sambas Regency. This study used a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design and a posttest nonequivalent control group design. Sampling was conducted using non-probability sampling with purposive sampling techniques, involving 34 respondents. The Shapiro-Wilk normality test showed that the data were not normally distributed (p<0.05), so the analysis was continued with the Mann Whitney non-parametric test. The test results showed a p-value of 0.000, which means that there was a significant difference between the intervention and control groups. Thus, the administration of binahong leaf extract had an effect on accelerating the healing of cesarean section wounds. The conclusion of this study is that binahong leaf extract significantly accelerates the average healing of post-cesarean section wounds at Sambas Regional General Hospital, making it a potential adjunct therapy in post-surgical care.

Abstract

Infant and toddler health services at integrated health posts (posyandu) play a crucial role in disease prevention and the improvement of child health through routine monitoring, which requires active maternal participation. Mothers’ participation is a key determinant of the effectiveness of these services. This study aimed to identify factors influencing mothers’ participation in posyandu visits for infants and toddlers in the working area of the Pahauman Community Health Center. This study employed an analytical survey design with a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of all mothers with children aged 12–59 months, totaling 1,437 individuals. A sample of 65 respondents was selected using stratified random sampling. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analyses. The univariate results showed that most respondents had good knowledge, lived close to the health center, and had access to complete posyandu facilities, although family support was relatively low. The majority of mothers demonstrated active participation in posyandu visits. Bivariate analysis revealed significant relationships between knowledge, distance from home, and family support with mothers’ participation in posyandu visits. In conclusion, mothers’ knowledge, proximity to health facilities, and family support are important factors influencing participation in posyandu visits. Strengthening these factors is essential to improve maternal involvement and optimize child health services.

Abstract

Low Birth Weight (LBW) is defined as a birth weight of less than 2,500 grams regardless of gestational age, measured within one hour after birth. Globally, the prevalence of LBW reaches approximately 21% of all births. In Landak District, the incidence of LBW fluctuated from 4.5% in 2020 to 2.6% in 2021 and increased again to 5.0% in 2022. Kangaroo Care (KC) is an effective method for improving the survival and health outcomes of LBW infants; however, its implementation requires adequate maternal knowledge and skills. Educational media, such as pocket books, can facilitate learning by making information easier to understand and remember. This study aimed to determine the effect of pocket book-based education on mothers’ knowledge and skills regarding Kangaroo Care among mothers who gave birth to LBW infants in Landak Regency. This study employed a pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest approach. A total of 22 respondents were selected using consecutive sampling. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The results showed a significant improvement in both knowledge and skills after the intervention, with p-values of <0.001. In conclusion, pocket book-based education is effective in improving mothers’ knowledge and skills regarding Kangaroo Care among mothers with LBW infants in Landak Regional General Hospital.
