The 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia Article 28 H states that every person has the right to live in physical and mental prosperity, to have a place to live, and to have a good and healthy living environment and the right to obtain health services. This study aims to 1). Describe the policy for handling and overcoming the pandemic - Covid-19; 2). Describe the village government-based policies for handling and overcoming the Covid-19 pandemic. This research was a normative legal research conducted by examining library materials or secondary data. The approach used was a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The type of study in this research was more descriptive in nature, because it intends to clearly describe various things related to the object under study. The policy for handling and overcoming the Covid-19 pandemic is marked by the formation of a Task Force for the Acceleration of Handling Covid-19 through Presidential Decree Number 7 of 2020. However, until now the number of positive cases of Covid-19 continues to increase to 1,505,800 people positive for Covid-19 cases in Indonesia as of March 30, 2021.

Abstract

Preterm birth is a birth that occurs before 37 weeks of gestation where low birth weight is often found at the same time. This combination of low birth weight and preterm has the potential to cause morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to study the relationship between low birth weight and survival rate in preterm infants. The research method used is systematic review approach obtained from 7 research studies in various countries and fulfills the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The variables studied were infant birth weight and survival rate using instruments in the form of studies that have been published on Google Scholar, PubMed, and Science Direct. The article search method uses the characteristics of PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome), then the data in the form of articles that have been collected is managed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) method. From the 7 articles that were reviewed, it was found that the lower limit of the survival rate in the ELBW category studied was 30.8%, 20.5%, 34.8%, 7%, 69.6%, 58.5%, and 59%. Then at the upper limit in the VLBW and LBW categories, numbers such as 91.8%, 95.6%, 84.8%, 92%, 97.9%, 95%, and 98.1% are obtained. There are consistent results, namely an increase in the survival rate with increasing birth weight, which shows a significant relationship between the two. Keywords: preterm; survival rate; low birth weight

Abstract

One of the causes of high maternal mortality is delivery assistance provided by other than health workers or traditional healers. The way to reduce the bondage relationship is to increase the motivation of cadres to refer mothers to health workers. The DABA method is a modification or development of the SALT method (support, appreciate, learn, and transfer), is a method or technique for forming something, showing that a community has the ability to respond to every challenge including childbirth assistance. The maternal mortality rate is still high, the Inter-Census Population Survey data released by the Central Statistics Agency shows that there were 359 maternal deaths per 100,000 births in 2013. The purpose of this study was to analyze the motivation of cadres by empowering the DABA method for referral for delivery assistance by health workers in Jember Regency. Motivation is the reason that underlies an action done by an individual. The method used was quasi-experimental using 2 groups. This study used the non equivalent control group, pre test post test design. The population in this study were 2220 posyandu cadres in the working area of the health centers in the Jember District. The subjects of this study were 100 posyandu cadres in Jember district in 2019 who met the criteria. The sampling technique was carried out by simple random sampling by selecting from a list of names of cadres in each health center. There was differences (p-value = 0.021) of cadre motivation between treatment and control group. The cadre motivation of intervention group was higher than the control group for referral labor. Having high motivation means having very strong reasons to achieve what he wants by doing his current job. The cadre motivation of treatment group increased significantly, this happened because cadres trained through the DABA method were invited to achieve the dreams they had built, namely to reduce maternal and infant mortality. Training using the DABA method is able to increase the motivation of cadres to make a referral to mothers to give birth at a health service place, so training with the DABA method is highly recommended to increase motivation for certain groups to achieve certain goals.
