Abstract

Background: Anemia in pregnant women is generally caused by unmet iron needs. The impact of anemia in pregnant women includes, BBLR (Low Birth Weight), IUGR (Intrauterine Growth Restriction), premature birth and postnatal death. Purpose: This study aims to determine the effect of giving BitMa juice (beetroot juice and honey) on increasing hemoglobin levels in pregnant women in PMB Caecilia Yunita Rahayu Malang City. Methods: The design of this study used a quasi-experiment with a pre-test and post-test control group design. The sample of this study was 32 pregnant women with a purposive sampling technique, have Hb levels <11 g/dL, are willing to be research respondents and cooperate by consuming BitMa juice during the research process, are willing to undergo Hb examination during the pre-test and post-test. The independent variable of this study was beetroot juice and honey, the dependent variable of this study was an increase in hemoglobin levels. The analysis used the Independent Sample T-Test. Results: The results of the study showed that the average Hb level of respondents before receiving BitMa juice treatment was 10.24 gr/dL. The average Hb level of pregnant women who were given BitMa juice was 12.85 gr/dL. The results of the Independent T-Test statistical test showed p = 0.000 <0.05, which means that there is an effect of BitMa juice (Beetroot and Honey) on increasing hemoglobin levels in pregnant women with a significant increase in hemoglobin levels of 20%. Conclusion: Giving BitMa juice (Beetroot and Honey) is effective in increasing hemoglobin levels in pregnant women, because of the iron, folic acid, and vitamin C content in beetroot and honey. So pregnant women with anemia are advised to consume BitMa juice.

Abstract

Background: Thalassemia can affect the experiences of patients and their families. Life satisfaction is a cognitive appraisal of life and should not be conflated with quality of life. This review maps the evidence across affected populations.Purpose: To map studies examining life satisfaction among patients with thalassemia, their family members, and couples with thalassemia minor, and identify gaps relevant to nursing.Methods: This scoping review followed the Arksey and O’Malley framework. PubMed, Scopus, and CINAHL were searched through 30 October 2024 for English-language empirical articles published from 2014 to 2024. Two reviewers independently screened, charted, and synthesized the evidence, resolving differences by discussion to consensus and consulting a third author if consensus could not be reached. Five studies were included.Results: Five studies were mapped: three patient studies from Italy and Iran, one study of family members in Türkiye, and one study of couples with thalassemia minor in Iran. Patient studies addressed perceived support, self-efficacy, satisfaction domains, and affective experiences; the remaining studies described satisfaction among relatives or couples. Population and measurement heterogeneity precluded direct comparisons.Conclusion: The five studies provide a limited and heterogeneous evidence map of life satisfaction across people affected by thalassemia. Patient, family, and couple outcomes should be interpreted separately. Further research using clearly specified instruments and longitudinal designs is needed.

Abstract

Background: Pneumonia is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients. Identifying the bacterial etiology is crucial for effective management. The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score is a valuable tool in evaluating the severity of organ dysfunction in these patients. Elevated levels of procalcitonin can indicate bacterial infection and assist in guiding antibiotic therapy.Purpose: This study aims to explore the relationship between the bacterial profile of sputum cultures, SOFA scores, and procalcitonin levels in hospitalized pneumonia patients.Methods: This research used a retrospective design with a total sampling of 68 pneumonia patients who were hospitalized in internal medicine High Care Unit from January to June 2024. Data was obtained by Electronic Medical Record.Results: The results showed that the highest number of sputum culture results were gram-negative bacteria (80.88%), which was dominated by Acinetobacter Baumannii (25%), followed by Klebsiella P. (17.6%), E. Coli (13.2%), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (13.2%). On the examination of antibiotic sensitivity, it was found that Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprime has a high sensitivity (76.5%) for Acinetobacter Baumanii, and Amikacin high sensitivity (100%) for Klebsiella P, and E.Coli. The correlation between the bacterial profile and the SOFA score was not significant p= 0.942, while the correlation between the bacterial profile and procalcitonin levels showed a significant relationship with p= 0.001.Conclusion: Procalcitonin levels are significantly associated with bacterial pneumonia but cannot specifically identify the type of bacteria.

Abstract

Background: Breast milk donation is a practice that provides significant benefits to premature infants and infants with certain medical conditions. However, mothers' willingness to donate breastmilk is still influenced by various factors, including altruistic motivation, social support, and practical and cultural barriers.Purpose: This study aimed to identify the factors that influence mothers' willingness to become breast milk donors using a scoping review approach.Methods: This study used a scoping review method based on the PRISMA 2020 guidelines with the PCC framework. Data were collected from various academic databases, including Scopus, PubMed, Wiley, ScienceDirect, and Crossref. The articles analyzed were primary research published in English and Indonesian between 2019–2024.Results: From the 9 articles analyzed, the main factors influencing mothers' willingness to donate breastmilk were altruistic motivation, personal experience, and family support. Mothers who lost a baby were more likely to donate breastmilk as a way to cope with grief. The main challenges included lack of information, social stigma, and practical barriers such as access to facilities and breast milk bank procedures.Conclusion: Mothers' willingness to donate breastmilk is influenced by emotional, social, and cultural factors. More widespread education, supportive policies, and the use of technology are needed to increase mothers' participation in breast milk donation programs in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

Background: Agricultural communities are vulnerable to unhealthy lifestyle behaviors due to heavy workloads and limited access to health education. Strengthening self-empowerment through nursing interventions is essential to promote sustainable health practices; however, evidence on LOHAS-informed, nurse-led empowerment interventions in Indonesian agricultural communities remains limited.Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate changes in self-empowerment among agricultural communities following the implementation of a nursing-based self-empowerment intervention to support healthy lifestyle practices.Methods: This study employed a pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design involving 265 participants from agricultural communities. Changes were assessed across six self-empowerment dimensions: self-capacity building, social network building, social service utilization, health empowerment, purposeful participation in goal attainment, and perceived well-being. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test to compare pretest and posttest scores.Results: Among 265 respondents, posttest scores were higher than pretest scores across all six self-empowerment dimensions. Mean scores increased from 18.42 to 25.63 for self-capacity building, 17.96 to 25.12 for social network building, 18.75 to 26.04 for social service utilization, 17.84 to 25.78 for health empowerment, 18.02 to 25.47 for purposeful participation in goal attainment, and 18.63 to 26.18 for perceived well-being. The differences were statistically significant across all six dimensions (p-values < .001).Conclusion: The self-empowerment scores increased across all six dimensions following the nursing-based intervention among agricultural communities. However, the absence of a control group limits causal interpretation, and the sustainability of these changes remains unknown. Controlled studies with longer follow-up periods are needed to assess causality and the sustainability of changes in self-empowerment and healthy lifestyle practices.

Abstract

Background: Managing hypertension in later life requires balancing cardiovascular stability against the daily demands of illness care. Although physical activity and self-management are standard recommendations, aggregate quality of life scores often conceal opposing trends between physical functional gains and psychological treatment burden.Purpose: We examined how physical activity and specific self-management behaviors relate to the physical and mental components of quality of life in hypertensive older adults.Methods: In this cross-sectional study of 62 hypertensive older adults at Caringin Primary Health Centre, Bandung, we administered the Physical Activities Scale for the Elderly (PASE), Hypertension Self-Management Behavior Questionnaire (HSMBQ), and RAND SF-36. Hierarchical linear regression evaluated continuous scores, controlling for age, sex, and hypertension stage.Results: Physical activity independently predicted higher PCS (B = 0.054, p = 0.005), driven by physical functioning (B = 0.116, p < 0.001) and role fulfillment (B = 0.092, p = 0.002). Overall self-management did not predict PCS (p = 0.354), though it was associated with reduced bodily pain (B = 0.397, p = 0.041). However, self-integration was negatively associated with MCS (B = -0.765, p = 0.019) and vitality (B = -1.599, p < 0.001). A significant positive interaction was found between physical activity and self-management on PCS (B = 0.0045, p = 0.0009).Conclusion: Routine physical activity sustains functional mobility, whereas rigid self-management introduces emotional strain. Primary care nurses should promote manageable
