Publisher : Belitung Raya Foundation, Indonesia

Background: Although the Indonesian government has campaigned exclusive breastfeeding during the past decade through maternal and child program of Ministry of Health, however, its coverage in Yogyakarta province remains low. Objective: This study aims to analyze factors related to exclusive breastfeeding program, especially indicators that can explain government’s regulation and mothers’ perception to exclusive breastfeeding practice. Methods: It was a cross-sectional study involved 185 mothers who have 6-12 months infants with parity 1-3. The correspondents live in Sleman district and had normal delivery in hospital, health center or midwifery private practitioner. The association between the exogenous (government policy and mothers’ perception) and the endogenous variables (mothers’ participation to exclusive breastfeeding practice) was determined using Lisrel version 8.80. Results: Although the government policy contributed to the success of implementing breastfeeding program (33%), providing breastfeeding rooms (28%), and declaring the related government regulation (17%); however, its contribution was recorded at only 2% to human resources. Knowledge significantly encouraged mothers to breastfeed whilst infrastructure was assessed as a strong determinant of mothers’ willingness to participate in the program at the contribution of 50%. Conclusion: Although there was only a weak association between government regulation to mothers’ perception and between mothers’ perception towards exclusive breastfeeding practice, the study highlights the importance of providing adequate information to improve mothers’ knowledge on exclusive breastfeeding. By knowledge improvement, mothers will have better perception, which in turn will improve their self-efficacy and practices in exclusive breastfeeding.

Background: The prolonged partus is one of the causes of maternal deaths marked by the slow progress of labor. Induction of labor and caesarean section is a common procedure performed on long-term partus events to end pregnancy. The birth acupressure technique is a complementary method to activate the hormone oxytocin at a certain point to use to soften the cervix and increase contraction. Objective: To examine the effect of acupressure point LI4, SP6 and BL60 on the duration of the first stage of labor and APGAR score of newborns in primigravida. Methods: This research employed a quasi-experimental study with posttest control group design. It was conducted at the Public Health Center of Trauma and Public Health Center of Palaran Samarinda, East Kalimantan, Indonesia. There were 40 respondents selected using purposive sampling, which 20 respondents assigned in the experiment and control group. The duration of the first stage of labor was assessed using partograph and APGAR score was assessed using APGAR score assessment sheets. Mann Whitney test was used for data analysis Results: Findings showed that the duration of the first stage of labor in the experiment group was 187 minutes and in the control group was 307 minutes. Mann Whitney test obtained p-value 0.001 (<0.05), which indicated that there was a statistically significant difference of the duration of the first stage of labor between both groups. However, Mann Whitney test for APGAR score showed p-value 0.114 (>0.05), which indicated that there was no significant difference of APGAR score in the experiment and control group. Conclusion: There was a significant effect of acupressure on the duration of the first stage of labor, but no effect of the APGAR score. Therefore, acupressure may be recommended to shorten the duration of the first stage of delivery in primigravida.

Publisher : Belitung Raya Foundation, Indonesia

Background: Preterm infants are at risk for respiratory and hypothermia disorders that may affect physiologic growth and development processes that can be aggravated by treatment processes while in the neonatal intensive care unit. Treatment in the NICU can trigger stress that can affect the vital signs and healing process of preterm infants, thus requiring non-medical treatment to stimulate the condition. This research provides a different treatment of sound therapy that has never been given to preterm infants in previous studies by listening murottal Al-Qur'an. Objective: To examine the effect of listening to the murottal Qur'an on oxygen saturation in preterm infants during treatment at the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Method: This was a pre-experimental study with one group pretest-posttest design from September to October 2017. The samples were 30 preterm infants treated at NICU of the General Hospital of Panembahan Senopati Bantul selected using accidental sampling. The analysis used was simple linear regression. Result: There was an increase of the oxygen saturation level after given intervention of Murottal Qur'an for 3 days. The first day of oxygen saturation intervention increased by 2.07%, the second day 3.75%, and the third day 4.65% compared to the oxygen saturation level before the intervention. Conclusion: Listening to murrotal Qur'an could statistically increase oxygen saturation, but clinically there was no significant change in preterm infants, as the increase of oxygen saturation level was still within normal limits.

HIV-associated with neurocognitive disorder (HAND) is a major interest issues worldwide, as results from introduction of Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) and increasing life expectancy. However, previous studies have been limited by lack of a guiding framework. The purpose of this review was to provide a conceptual framework to guide studies of neurocognitive impairment in patients with HIV/AIDS. A literature search was conducted of articles published from 1998 through December 2015 using the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Ebscohost databases on evaluating the problem of neurocognitive impairment in HIV. This search resulted in a total of 36 articles. Evidence has indicated that there are neurobiological changes and brain abnormalities among people living with HIV/AID, which may affect cognitive functioning. Being infected by HIV and increased age are independently factors on HAND. However, there is remaining unclear the effect of HAART, is protective factors or risk factors of HAND and its consequence on quality of life among patients with HIV/AIDS. Considering the major issues in above, patient with HIV/AIDS is vulnerable population for developing HAND that might have been resulted to under report. Future studies focus on exploring HAND is necessary especially from low income countries where the accessibility to HAART are limited.
