Abstract

Background: Rapid population growth is a pressing concern with widespread implications, including potential food and energy crises. To address this issue, the Indonesian government has implemented Family Planning (FP) programs. However, the total fertility rate (TFR) continues to rise. A high unmet need for family planning is a significant contributing factor. Unmet need for family planning is defined as the percentage of women of reproductive age, whether married or in a union, who have an unmet need for family planning. Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the factors associated with the incidence of unmet need among women of reproductive age at the Padang City Community Health Center. Method: A cross-sectional methodology and analytical observational study design were used. The study included 95 non-pregnant women of reproductive age in Padang City. The sample size was determined using a quota sampling approach. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test with a 95% Confidence Interval (CI). Results: The results indicated that the p-value was 0.000, which is ≤ 0.05, indicating a significant correlation between knowledge, attitude, and the incidence of unmet need. Conclusion: These findings suggest that addressing these factors could be an effective strategy for decreasing the incidence of unmet need among women of reproductive age. Health providers need to raise awareness about family planning and enhance women's understanding of the importance of utilizing family planning services

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

This study aims to identify socioeconomic and demographic factors influencing husband involvement in Antenatal Care (ANC) in the coastal areas of Bandar Lampung, where such involvement is often limited. Using an observational analytic approach with a cross-sectional design, the study involved 170 pregnant women from coastal areas and assessed factors like husband’s age, education level, number of children, and employment status through structured questionnaires. The findings revealed significant associations between husband involvement in ANC and both age (p-value 0,0137) and education level (p-value 0,0000), while the number of children and employment status showed no significant correlation. Policymakers should pay more attention to the issue of husband involvement in ANC in Bandar Lampung’s coastal areas. Improving access to and the quality of formal education in these areas is expected to improve cultural perceptions and welfare levels, thereby increasing husband involvement in antenatal care
