Abstract

Nutritional status serves as an important indicator of health development in infants and young children. Insufficient growth in height and weight during the toddler stage can lead to nutritional issues that negatively impact health and may cause delays in cognitive development. This study aimed to examine the relationship between family functioning and the growth of toddlers with stunting in Kadu Village, Tangerang. A correlational design with a cross-sectional approach was applied, involving 64 families with stunted children under five years old. Data were collected using the Family Assessment Device (FAD), which measures seven dimensions of family functioning: problem-solving, communication, roles, affective responsiveness, affective involvement, behavior control, and general functioning. The height and weight of toddlers were validated through health records and direct measurement. Statistical analysis revealed that the role factor had a significant negative correlation with both child height (p = 0.001; r = -0.395) and weight (p = 0.002; r = -0.379), while problem-solving showed a positive correlation with height (p = 0.03; r = 0.271). These findings indicate that parental roles and involvement in daily care strongly influence toddler growth. Roles and problem-solving are part of the family function. Strengthening family roles and problem-solving skills is essential to improving nutritional outcomes and preventing stunting.

Abstract

Chronic kidney disease is a progressive and irreversible kidney disorder that, if it has reached an advanced stage, requires kidney replacement therapy, one of which is hemodialysis. Patients with hemodialysis experience several problems, including changes in blood pressure and fatigue. One therapy that can overcome changes in blood pressure and fatigue is traditional instrumental music therapy. This study aimed to determine the effect of traditional Indonesian instrumental music, saluang, on blood pressure and fatigue in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis. This type of research uses a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test-post-test research design. The number of samples was 20 people taken using a purposive sampling technique. Data analysis used the repeated ANOVA test. The results of the study showed that the average fatigue score before the intervention was 41.50, after the intervention was 37.45, and there was a difference between the fatigue score before and after the administration of traditional instrumental music: saluang, with a p-value = 0.000 (p-value <0.05). The average systolic blood pressure before the intervention was 177.50 mmHg, after the intervention was 172.55 mmHg, and there was a difference in the average systolic blood pressure before and after the provision of traditional instrumental music: saluang, with p-value = 0.001 (p-value <0.05). From this study, it can be concluded that there is an effect of instrumental music therapy on fatigue and blood pressure in patients undergoing hemodialysis. It is recommended for nursing services to make instrumental music therapy intervention one of the non-pharmacological therapies in reducing fatigue and blood pressure in patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Abstract

Hypertension is a major factor in premature mortality and often goes undetected until complications arise, highlighting the necessity for effective prevention and management strategies. Coastal adults who actively manage their hypertension can improve their health and well-being while reducing the possibility of complications. This study aimed to describe the self-management behaviour of adult hypertensive patients living in coastal areas. A cross-sectional descriptive approach was used. A total of 287 adult patients with hypertension were included as samples in this study based on the established inclusion criteria. This study used the Hypertension Self-Management Behaviour Questionnaire (HSMBQ), which contains 40 questions in the Indonesian language version. The majority of self-management behaviours among adult hypertensive patients were categorised as moderate (67.6%), followed by low (18.5%) and high (13.9%). This distribution highlights a significant opportunity for healthcare providers to implement targeted interventions aimed at increasing self-management skills, particularly for those in the low and moderate categories. Interventions designed to enhance awareness and skills in hypertension management can be tailored to the cultural context of coastal communities, thereby improving the proportion of patients classified in the high category. Enhancing these behaviours could lead to improved blood pressure control and overall health outcomes in this population.

Abstract

Dementia and cognitive impairment are rapidly increasing worldwide, with more than 57 million cases globally and a projected rise in low- and middle-income countries. Indonesia ranks among the countries with the highest number of dementia cases in Southeast Asia, with Yogyakarta reporting a high proportion of older adults at risk. Despite this growing burden, community-based dementia care models remain limited, and most older adults rely primarily on family caregivers. This situation highlights an urgent need for approaches that not only address cognitive decline but also improve the quality of life (QoL) of older adults living in the community. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the severity of cognitive impairment and QoL among community-dwelling older adults and to provide preliminary evidence for the development of an interdisciplinary home visit model tailored to the Indonesian context. A correlational study was conducted involving 30 older adults aged ≥60 years living with their families in Yogyakarta. Cognitive status was assessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and QoL was measured using the WHOQOL-BREF. Data were analyzed using Spearman’s rank correlation. There was a significant relationship between the severity of dementia and QoL in the physical domain (rₛ = 0.428; p = 0.018) and the environmental domain (rₛ = 0.440; p = 0.015). These findings indicate that greater dementia severity was associated with lower QoL in the physical and environmental domains. The findings provide preliminary evidence supporting the development of an interdisciplinary home visit model in Indonesia, particularly one that integrates physical mobility support, environmental safety optimization, and family-centered care. Larger studies are recommended to strengthen this foundation before full model implementation.

Abstract

Anemia among pregnant women remains a significant public health issue, including in Sabu Raijua Regency. This study aims to analyze the relationship between gestational age and parity with the incidence of anemia among pregnant women at the Seba Community Health Center (UPTD Puskesmas Seba). The study employed a cross-sectional design using secondary data from pregnancy registers and cohorts collected from January to June 2025. The sample consisted of 59 pregnant women selected through purposive sampling. The variables examined included maternal age, gestational age, parity, and anemia status based on hemoglobin examination. Data were analyzed univariately to describe frequency distributions and bivariately using the Chi-Square test. The results showed that 45.8% of the pregnant women experienced anemia. Statistical analysis revealed a significant relationship between gestational age (p = 0.049), nutritional status (p < 0.001), and sociocultural factors (p < 0.001) with the incidence of anemia. However, parity did not show a significant relationship (p = 0.807). In conclusion, efforts to prevent anemia among pregnant women at the Seba Community Health Center require comprehensive interventions that take into account nutritional aspects, stages of pregnancy, and sociocultural factors influencing maternal health behaviors.

Abstract

Introduction: Children in surgical units are vulnerable to nursing problems due to invasive procedures and complex medical conditions. Identifying nursing diagnoses is essential to determine appropriate and effective interventions.Objective: This study aimed to identify nursing diagnoses based on the Indonesian Nursing Diagnosis Standards (Standar Diagnostik Keperawatan Indonesia, SDKI) in pediatric patients hospitalized in a pediatric surgical care unit. Methods: This quantitative study employed a cross-sectional design using retrospective data from medical records. The study was conducted in the Pediatric Surgical Care Unit of Arifin Achmad General Hospital, Riau Province, from December 2024 to March 2025. The sample consisted of 107 children and adolescents who were hospitalized for more than 24 hours. Data were collected using pediatric nursing assessment forms and analyzed descriptively using frequency and percentage. Results: A total of 13 actual nursing problems were identified. The most common problem was acute pain (D.0077), found in 82 cases (75%). Other issues included decreased intracranial adaptive capacity (D.0066) and constipation (D.0049), each in 6 cases (6.5%), as well as urinary elimination impairment (D.0040) and anxiety (D.0080), each in 2 cases (2.2%). Conclusion: Acute pain is the most dominant nursing problem among postoperative children, accompanied by anxiety as a significant psychological issue. A systematic SDKI-based assessment of pain and anxiety, along with integrated interventions encompassing pain management and anxiety reduction, is essential to improve the quality of care and enhance postoperative recovery outcomes in children.

Abstract

End-stage renal failure (ESRD) is a global health issue requiring hemodialysis as a life-sustaining therapy. The insertion of an arteriovenous (AV) fistula, the primary vascular access for hemodialysis, often causes recurrent pain, impacting patient comfort and quality of life. Objective: To evaluate the pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions for managing pain associated with AV fistula insertion in hemodialysis patients. Methods: A systematic review was performed by searching ScienceDirect, PubMed, EBSCO, and ProQuest databases. Articles were identified using Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms and relevant keywords related to hemodialysis, arteriovenous fistula, pain, and pain management interventions. Studies were screened following the PRISMA guidelines using Rayyan and critically appraised using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Tools. Results: The database search identified 381 records. After screening and eligibility assessment, 17 studies met the inclusion criteria. Both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions were associated with reduced pain during AV fistula insertion. Among the reviewed interventions, 2% lidocaine gel and cryotherapy at the Hegu point were the interventions most consistently associated with pain reduction. Conclusion: Both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions were associated with reduced pain during AV fistula insertion. Among the reviewed interventions, 2% lidocaine gel and cryotherapy at the Hegu point showed the most consistent associations with pain reduction. These findings may inform pain management practices in hemodialysis settings.

Abstract

Burnout is a major problem among intensive care nurses, yet its relationship with pressure injury prevention adherence has not been examined within the Indonesian context. This study aimed to determine the association between burnout levels and adherence to pressure injury prevention guidelines among nurses working in intensive care units of a type-A teaching hospital. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 144 ICU nurses in a teaching referral hospital in Depok. Data were collected using the Questionnaire for Adherence to Recommendations for Pressure Ulcer Prevention (QARPPU) and the Maslach Burnout Inventory–Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS). Univariate analyses summarized respondent characteristics, and chi-square tests with Cramer’s V examined the association between burnout and adherence.It is revealed that most nurses showed adequate adherence to pressure injury prevention practices (58.3%). High burnout was evident in 45.8% of respondents. There was a strong statistical association between burnout level and the adherence of prevention of pressure ulcers (χ² = 27.65, p < 0.001), with a moderate effect size (Cramer’s V = 0.438). Burnout was significantly associated with adherence to pressure injury prevention guidelines among intensive care nurses. Although high burnout prevalence was comparatively lower, this is still an important issue to be solved by hospital management.

Abstract

Background: Nurses in medical-surgical wards manage high patient loads, complex clinical conditions, administrative duties, and extended working hours. These demands may increase physical and psychological strain, potentially impairing sleep quality and affecting performance and patient safety. This study aimed to examine the relationship between workload and sleep quality among nurses in a private hospital in Eastern Indonesia. Methods: A quantitative cross-sectional design was applied. All 96 nurses working in the medical-surgical ward were included using total sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires measuring workload and sleep quality. Descriptive analysis was used to summarize respondent characteristics, while the chi-square test was performed to determine the association between workload and sleep quality. Results: There was a statistically significant relationship between workload and nurses’ sleep quality (p = 0.006). A total of 57.3% of nurses experienced a heavy workload, while 34.4% had a light workload. Furthermore, 91.7% of nurses reported poor sleep quality, and only 8.3% reported good sleep quality. Conclusion: Higher workload is significantly associated with poorer sleep quality among nurses. Hospitals are encouraged to routinely evaluate workload and implement preventive strategies to promote nurses’ well-being and maintain quality of care.

Abstract

Background: Inequity in kidney donor availability remains a global challenge, including in Indonesia. Comparative analyses of different regulatory models and their ethical implications for Indonesia are still limited. Objective: To compare kidney donation regulations and ethical frameworks in Spain (opt-out), the United States (opt-in), and Iran (regulated compensation), and assess their relevance for Indonesia. Methods: A narrative literature review with a comparative thematic analysis was conducted on 12 articles published between 2015 and 2025. Results: The effectiveness of kidney donation systems depends not only on legal frameworks but also on implementation, public trust, donor protection, and transparency. Spain achieved high participation through a coordinated opt-out system and strong public education. The United States emphasized autonomy through opt-in but faced challenges in equitable distribution. Iran increased donor availability via regulated compensation, though ethical concerns regarding potential exploitation remain.cConclusion: No single model is universally applicable. Indonesia requires a context-specific approach integrating ethical principles, sociocultural values, and institutional capacity, with emphasis on public education, transparency, and donor protection.
