Abstract

Introduction: The results of the community satisfaction survey at K Referral Center Hospital in 2019-2023 showed a decrease in patient satisfaction. In inpatient installation, satisfaction levels reached only 83.53% in May 2024, below the minimum standard of 90% set by the Ministry of Health (Kepmenkes Number 129 / Menkes / SK / II / 2008) for inpatient care. This study aimed to identify the level of satisfaction regarding the quality of inpatient services among non-national health insurance patients.Methods: This was a cross-sectional quantitative study. Sample calculation using the proportional sampling technique with accidental data collection for 97 non-national health-insured inpatients in January-February 2025. Data were processed using the chi-squared relationship test with SERVQUAL variables.Results: Most patients were satisfied (60.8%) with the services they received, whereas the others were dissatisfied (39.2%). A significant relationship was found between the tangible dimensions, responsiveness, reliability, and patient satisfaction. No significant relationship was found between the dimensions of empathy, assurance, and patient satisfaction.Conclusion: Inpatients satisfaction in K referral Hospital is related to the facilities owned by the hospital, attitudes of medical personnel, speed of response to complaints, and reliability of officers in providing services that can increase trust in health services

Abstract

.Introduction: Digital transformation in the health sector requires hospitals to implement the Hospital Management Information System (HMIS); however, problems remain in its implementation. This study aimed to analyze the obstacles and challenges in implementing an HMIS in Padang City. Methods: This descriptive qualitative study was conducted between March and July, 2024. The study was conducted in two hospitals in Padang City: one public hospital and one private hospital. The research participants were 16 people who were identified through purposive sampling. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and review of documents. Data processing consisted of data collection, reduction, and presentation, with content analysis. Source and method triangulation were used to ensure data validity.Results: Public hospitals have conducted internal training and have an adequate IT team, while private hospitals do not have formal training and lack IT personnel. From an organizational perspective, public hospitals show strong managerial support in the form of budget allocation and cross-unit coordination, whereas private hospitals face limitations in the integration of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and SATUSEHAT. In terms of technology, both hospitals face obstacles due to slow Internet networks, but public hospitals are better prepared in terms of hardware infrastructure.Conclusion: The success of an HMIS implementation depends heavily on the alignment of human, organizational, and technological aspects. Private hospitals require stronger support in terms of training, infrastructure, and policies to compete with public hospitals in the digital transformation of health care services.

Abstract

Introduction: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are major public health issues in healthcare facilities. It is one of the main causes of maternal mortality, particularly in developing countries, where infrastructure and infection control measures are often inadequate. This study aimed to determine the prevalence, most common infections, and responsible pathogens and antimicrobial resistance patterns of maternal HAIs in a healthcare facility in Burkina Faso. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study was based on the patients' medical records between 1 and 30 March 2025. Data from patients who developed HAIs between 2018 and 2022 were collected, with a focus on endometritis, surgical site and urinary tract infections. The causative organisms were identified, and their resistance to antimicrobials was tested. Total sampling technique was used, based on available data. Trends and factors influencing the prevalence of HAIs were also analyzed.Results: The overall prevalence of HAIs was 4.27%. The most common infections were endometritis (2.17%), urinary tract infections (1,36%), and surgical site infections (0.74%). The main pathogens identified were Enterobacteriaceae (43.3%), yeasts of the Candida genus (30.8%), and staphylococci (11%). Antimicrobial resistance was high, particularly multidrug resistance, in E. coli and K. pneumoniae strains, as well as a notable rate of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) at 19.04%. Conclusion: The prevalence of HAIs is high, and multidrug-resistant pathogens are a major complication. There is an urgent need to strengthen infection prevention strategies, improve microbiological surveillance, and promote rational use of antibiotics to control the spread of resistance.
