Abstract

COVID-19 crisis has posed an enormous challenge for all healthcare services. Therefore, this study aimed to describe the cancer patients’ knowledge and perceptions on oncology service quality during the COVID-19 pandemic. Cancer outpatient knowledge and perceptions toward the changes in chemotherapy and radiotherapy service in response to the pandemic was evaluated using a questionnaire. Majority of the 230 participants were knowledgeable about the pandemic and more than 95% of them claimed to sufficiently practice preventive measures. Television and the internet were their main source of information, and despite the fear of being infected by the COVID-19 virus, less than 15% of the respondents thought to stop or delay hospital visits. Generally, the changes in oncology service were well-received by the patients and they trust the health care workers in maintaining their safety. Also, oncology services delivery to outpatients remains consistent despite several alterations in hospital policies. Personal protective equipment utilization by health care workers and patients proved to be an important factor in reducing anxiety during hospital visits. Policy makers need to fully utilize the internet and associated mobile applications as an education tool.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) case results in Semarang Regency is still in the low category. The IHE method was developed through counseling and training to support the community empowerment needed in assisting TB cases handling and determination. This study aims to determine the IHE method's effect and effectiveness on the knowledge and attitudes of Pemberdayaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga (Empowerment of Family Welfare; PPK) members regarding TB disease. A quasi-experimental one-group pretest-postest design and a sample size of 25 active PKK members in the Sumowono sub-district were used. Then, the data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test and N-Gran Score. The results showed the IHE method's effect on PKK members knowledge and attitudes regarding TB disease with P-values of 0.034 and 0.029, respectively. The IHE method effectively improved the PKK members attitudes towards TB disease (mean= 61.43%). There was an increase in the knowledge and attitudes of PKK mothers about TB disease through health education using the IHE method. The development in IHE is needed to be applied as a health education method in various other diseases.

Abstract

Type D personality is defined as the interaction between negative affectivity (NA) and social inhibition (SI). Hypertension has the highest cases in primary healthcare center (PHC) in Semarang City compared to other non-communicable diseases. This study aims to determine type D personality role on essential hypertension. It was a case-control study conducted at the PHC in Semarang City from January 2020 to March 2021 with 139 cases and 139 controls among 18-60 years old patients. Sample collection was performed by stratified random sampling. The instruments used were the DS-14 scale, structured questionnaire IPAQ-SF, food frequency questionnaire, and the Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale, while data were analyzed using logistic regression. The prevalence of type D personality in the case group (64%; 95%CI: 55.9%-72.1%) was higher than in the control (36.7%; 95%CI: 28.7%-44.7%). Type D personality was discovered to be significantly associated with essential hypertension (OR: 3.07; 95%CI: 1.83-5.16). After other covariates adjustment, the association was still statistically significant (AdjOR: 2.41; 95%CI: 1.32-4.41).

Abstract

Malnutrition remains a health problem in the world especially in developing countries such as Indonesia. This study aimed to determine factors influencing the nutritional status of children aged 24-60 months old in rural communities of Flores Timur, Nusa Tenggara Timur, Indonesia. This study was conducted in 5 villages in the rural community with a cross-sectional design. The total participant of this study was 250 mothers and children 24-60 months old. The participants were selected purposively. Data were collected using questionnaires of socio-demographic, dietary intakes, diseases, child care practices, and anthropometric measurement. Multivariate binary logistic regression was employed for the data analysis. Binary logistic regression revealed that energy intake (OR=8.99), protein intake (OR=6.95), the occurrence of infectious diseases (OR=6.45), the frequency of infectious diseases (OR=6.00), and age of introduction of complementary foods (OR=34.55) were significant factors that influence nutritional status in rural communities of Flores Timur, Indonesia. Based on these findings, health workers need to promote the appropriate time for giving the children complementary foods. Moreover, children who have experience of acute respiratory infection and/or diarrhea over the past six months should receive the appropriate intervention such as adequate dietary intake during illness to maintain nutritional status.

Abstract

Dysmenorrhoea is the most common problem encountered by most of the adolescent girls .The study was conducted to find out the prevalence of dysmenorrhea, its risk factors and its impact on quality of life among these girls residing in tribal welfare hostels. A cross sectional study was conducted among 582 adolescent girls aged 10-19years residing in tribal welfare hostels in southern India after obtaining informed consent. Multinominal regression analysis was done to determine the factors associated with dysmenorrhea. The prevalence of dysmenorrhea was high with 58.4% and 48.8% participants reported to have physical premenstrual symptoms.There was significant association between those experiencing moderate to severe pain intensity and the dysmenorrhea (p<0.000). Association between factors like prolonged menstrual duration [AOR,3.40(95%CI,1.49-7.81)],those who were having moderate[AOR,5.78(95% CI,1.96-17.02)] to severe menstrual bleeding [AOR, 5.14 (95% CI, 1.78-14.08)],positive family history [AOR, 3.57 (95%CI,2.30-5.54)]and also with respect to somatic symptoms [AOR,2.03 (95%CI, 1.33-3.08] were statistically significant.44.7% of them ignored the pain during menstruation,followed by bed rest (33.5%),self medication(16.5%),hot application (4.1%). Strengthening of school health education programmes,incorporation of reproductive health issues in school curriculum will improve the barriers like knowledge on regarding menstrual cycle and treatment seeking behaviour among these vulnerable population.

Abstract

The blood processing replacement costs (BPPD) establishment in Indonesia is an incomprehensive cost calculation for blood services. Several countries have calculated costs for blood services at health care institutions through an activity framework plus generated blood products and components costs as well as blood services fees. This study aims to discuss the cost calculation method for blood services carried out in Zimbabwe, Canada, United Kingdom, Greece and India. It was a literature review conducted by accessing scientific articles sourced from the Google Scholar database. A total of 11 articles were collected, but only 5 with relevant topics were discussed. Blood service cost calculation provides information of various activities involved in producing a product and service. Also, blood service framework model determination was needed as a cost center for estimation to prevent duplication. Each activity's total output from the cost center was used in calculating the unit cost of the activity or product. The blood products and components include whole blood, red blood cells, platelets, plasma (FFP), and cryoprecipitate. Each of the blood components require a different cost determined by the activity involved in their production.

Abstract

Poor physical activity behavior has its roots in a lack of understanding of the importance of healthy living. This study explores health education barriers to controlling blood glucose in a patient with DM in primary health care. The Forum Group Discussion (n = 22) and interview (n = 5) methods were used to explore the patient’s desire to overcome educational barriers. Informants for the study were patients with DM aged between 26-69 years from two community health centers and two private health centers within Sleman Regency, Indonesia. The informants were then questioned about barriers to physical activity programs for controlling blood glucose. The data collected was analyzed using Opencode, and the results revealed that boring educational training is the leading cause of physical inactivity and dietary control in patients with DM. Furthermore, the use of formal language in delivering material is the cause of patient boredom to take part in the training. Also, limited health human resources have resulted in a lack of maximum education programs for patients with DM in Yogyakarta. Therefore, a tense atmosphere and the use of complex language have a negative impact on patients to change physical activity and control eating patterns.

Abstract

Many girls are faced with the challenge of Dysmenorrhea during their adolescent years. Therefore, this study aimed at finding the prevalence of Dysmenorrhea, its risk factors, and its impact on quality of life among teenage girls residing in tribal welfare hostels. After obtaining informed consent, a cross-sectional survey was conducted among 582 adolescent girls residing in tribal welfare hostels in southern India. Data was collected by purposive sampling technique, and the mean, standard deviation and percentages, and frequencies were applied for summarizing the continuous and quantitative variables. Additionally, multinominal regression analysis was performed to determine the factors associated with Dysmenorrhea. The results indicated the prevalence of Dysmenorrhea was 58.4%, while 48.8% of participants reported physical premenstrual symptoms. Furthermore, there is a significant association between those experiencing moderate to severe pain and Dysmenorrhea (p<0.000). Association between factors such as prolonged menstrual duration [AOR,3.4(95%CI,1.49-7.81)], those having moderate [AOR,5.78(95% CI,1.96-17.02)] to severe menstrual bleeding [AOR, 5.1 (95% CI, 1.78-14.08)], family history [AOR, 3.5 (95%CI,2.30-5.54)]and somatic symptoms [AOR,2.03 (95%CI, 1.33-3.08] were statistically significant. In conclusion, Dysmenorrhea had a significant impact on quality of life since the girls could not attend routine activities. Therefore, incorporating reproductive health issues in education programs will encourage treatment-seeking behavior among the girls.

Abstract

Workplace bullying is now a psychosocial hazard that has led to deterioration in the productivity of workers, which ultimately leads to the decline in the performance of organizations. This study aimed at examining the correlation between bullying, psychological distress, and satisfaction in life. Respondents involved are offshore workers of an oil and gas company (N = 206) from various entities. Additionally, the respondents were divided into permanent and contract workers, as well as staff and non-staff members recruited using the snowball sampling method. Statistical analysis was performed using the Spearman correlation test with the SPSS software. The results showed a significant association between bullying and psychological distress (r permanent=0.705, r contract=0.548, r staff=0.656, and r non-staff=0.513, p=0.01) and satisfaction with life (r permanent=-0.213, r contract=-0.151, r staff=-0.330, and r non-staff=-0.149, p=0.05). This indicated that permanent workers and staff positions have a higher level of psychological distress than contract workers and non-staff members. However, they also have a higher level of life satisfaction. Therefore, although the stress levels are higher among permanent and staff workers, a mediating factor makes their satisfaction remain higher.
