Abstract

This study examines how an educational program combined with red betel extract salve application affects postpartum mothers' knowledge and attitudes toward perineal care, focusing on Grade 2 perineal lacerations. With 80 participants split evenly between intervention and control groups, those in the intervention group received education and salve application, leading to significantly improved knowledge and attitudes compared to the control group, which followed standard care protocols. Specifically, the mean knowledge score for the intervention group increased from 7.48 to 9.70 post-intervention, while the control group's knowledge score remained stable at 7.08 (p < 0.001). In terms of attitudes, the intervention group displayed a significantly more positive attitude, with a mean attitude score of 39.12 post-intervention, compared to the control group's score of 35.52 (p < 0.001). These results highlight the potential of educational interventions to substantially improve both knowledge and attitudes related to perineal care among postpartum mothers. These findings contribute to advancing postpartum care practices, benefiting the overall well- being of postpartum mothers during this pivotal stage of their maternal journey.

Abstract

 Purpose: This study aimed to develop a prenatal maternal self-report inventory (prenatal MSRI) based on the Maternal Self-Report Inventory (MSRI) and establish its reliability and validity. Methodology: The components of the prenatal MSRI were examined, and a 4-factor, 32-item questionnaire was developed and completed by 348 pregnant women. Findings: Exploratory factor analysis revealed 3 factors and 22 items in this scale. Cronbach’s α coefficient for the total scale was .85. The test–retest correlation coefficient for the total score was .86. The scale showed a significant positive correlation with the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, indicating concurrent validity. Originality: The prenatal MSRI is a new instrument with confirmed reliability and validity. Practical Significance: This questionnaire, which takes approximately 5 minutes to complete, offers an instant assessment of maternal self-esteem. Practical and social implications: This scale can be used to assess maternal self-esteem specific to the gestational period, to identify the factors that may reduce self-esteem, and provide nursing support. Limitation: This scale has not been used on pregnant women who require hospitalization due to serious perinatal complications. Therefore, future research should apply this scale on all pregnant women.

Abstract

Vulvovaginitis is very common in pregnancy in our country. Lactobacilli are the normal vaginal microflora which maintains acidic vaginal pH. Lack of hygiene may lead to colonisation of coliforms resulting in vulvovaginitis which in turn may cause serious health problems for the mother and the new-born. A cross-sectional observational study was conducted on pregnant women attending antenatal OPD of BMCH on every Wednesday between 1st July to 31st December, 2022 with a preformed questionnaire which dealt with different parameters to observe whether present pregnancy was complicated by any vulvovaginal ailments. Although they had little knowledge about vulvovaginal microbiota, pathogenesis and morbidity of vulvovaginitis during pregnancy, most had a practice of vulvovaginal cleaning with plain water and not commercial douching. Protection against vulvovaginal infection is particularly important for pregnant women as it increases the risk serious maternal and neonatal morbidities. Routine washing of the vulva with plain water is beneficial to maintain cleanliness and prevent vulvovaginal infection. Vulvar cleansing products does not treat infections rather disrupts normal vaginal microbiota thus promotes colonization of uropathogens. Prevention of vulvovaginal infection by simple hygiene maintenance can be achieved by educating antenatal mothers during their visits.

The government strives to increase exclusive breastfeeding, one of which is through the empowerment of cadres, so intensive efforts are needed to optimize the role of cadres in supporting exclusive breastfeeding. Objectives: This study aims to analyze factors related to the knowledge and ability of cadres in identifying breastfeeding problems. Methods: The research design used observational analytic with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 46 posyandu cadres in the Malang Regency area were involved in this research.

Results: The cadres' knowledge related to breast milk and breastfeeding is mostly sufficient (65.22%). The ability of cadres to identify the breastfeeding problems the most in the category is sufficient (63.04%). The pathway analysis showed that the factors that influenced knowledge were education (r=0.488) and breastfeeding experience (r=0.336), but age had a negative effect (r=-0.267). Factors that influenced the ability to identify breastfeeding problems were breastfeeding experience (r=0.542) and breastfeeding training history (r=0.469). Conclusions: Education and age are important factors in the recruitment of cadres, in addition, information and practices related to breast milk and breastfeeding obtained through experience and training are also needed to support exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract

This study investigates the factors affecting Tetanus Toxoid (TT) immunization among brides-to-be in Aceh, using a mixed-method approach. Tetanus, a potentially fatal bacterial infection, poses a significant risk, particularly to maternal and neonatal health. Despite government mandates for TT immunization, uptake remains inconsistent. Quantitative data from structured questionnaires assessed respondents' knowledge, attitudes, and healthcare provider support. The qualitative component used in-depth interviews with brides-to-be, healthcare providers, and community leaders to explore contextual factors impacting TT immunization. Results showed that 92.9% of respondents were aged 20-35, indicating the importance of targeting this demographic. While 57.1% held college degrees or higher, a high unemployment rate (35.7%) suggested potential barriers to healthcare access. Misinformation, societal resistance, and religious concerns emerged as key challenges, with misconceptions about vaccine safety contributing to vaccine hesitancy. Recommendations for improving TT immunization uptake include targeted education campaigns, addressing religious and cultural concerns, and simplifying the immunization process. By implementing these strategies, public health authorities can increase TT immunization rates, leading to better maternal and neonatal health outcomes in Aceh
