Abstract

Maternal mortality rates (MMR) in Indonesia have not reached the target of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Indonesian government has established a Delivery Planning and Complication Prevention program (P4K) that focuses on community empowerment including health cadres. Health cadres have a significant role in preventing of maternal mortality in the maternal periods (pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum), including early detection of danger signs of pregnancy. However, there is limited research in Indonesia that examines cadre’s knowledge about the danger signs of pregnancy in detail. This study aimed to assess cadres’ knowledge of danger signs in the maternal period especially in pregnancy. This research is a quantitative descriptive study. The study was conducted in Tempuran sub-district, Karawang regency, West Java. 48 cadres were involved in this study. Respondents filled in questionnaires about the danger signs of pregnancy. The results showed that the majority of cadres understood danger signs in pregnancy. Premature rupture of membranes (91.6%) and convulsions (91.6%) were danger signs that best known by cadres. While the signs of vaginal discharge (8%), heartburn (8%), and prolonged labor (4%) were little known by cadres as part of danger signs of pregnancy. The level of cadre knowledge about danger signs of pregnancy is varied. This research is the baselines information that may useful for program developments in relation to increase cadre capacity in preventing maternal mortality in the maternal periods.Keywords: Cadres, knowledge, danger signs of pregnancy

Abstract

Infants’ hospitalization in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) adversely affect infants and parents. Many activities have been developed to minimize the negative impact of infants’ hospitalization, one of them is applying the family centered care method. The first step of the method is to identify parent’ needs. This literature review is aimed to identify the needs of parents with critically ill infants in the neonatal intensive care unit. Articles were collected from several databases including Medline, CINAHL, EBSCOhost, Google Scholar, PubMed, and Proquest. The keywords were critically ill infants, family centered care, the needs of parents, and neonatal intensive care unit, qualitative, and quantitative studies. The articles reviewed were only articles with full text, written in English, and published during period 2004 to 2017. The study was criticized by the author using the Critical Appraisal Tool from JBI (Joanna Briggs Institute). 10 articles that related specifically to parental needs were discovered. Needs of parents with critically ill infants, including the needs to (1) have a positive acceptance and caring attitude of nurses towards infant and parents; (2) get an accurate information, effective communication, and parents’ involvement in decision making regarding to the condition of the infant; (3) have confident and believe that infant get the best care; (4) have an adequate contact with infant; (5) have opportunity in caring for the infant with the guidance and supervision of nurses; and (6) obtain comfortable neonatal intensive care unit environment. Each parent has a different priority of their needs. This needs identification would help nurses in integrating parents' need for the family centered care approach.  As a result, parents would meet their needs, feel satisfied, and improved the infants’ quality of life.Keywords: Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Parental Needs

Abstract

The number of events of sexual violence among school-age children in Indonesia is still high. Community health centres (puskesmas) have established school health centres (UKS). However, the methods implemented by the community health centres for preventing sexual violence among school-age children have not been identified, including primary, secondary, and tertiary preventions. This research aims to examine the prevention practices of sexual violence among school-age children conducted by community health centres. It employs qualitative method. The roles of community health centres in Tasikmalaya and Bandung in implementing the practices of sexual violence were identified through the school health centres (UKS) program. The findings indicate that in the primary prevention, the community health centres do not have specific programs; they perceived the sexual violence prevention as not being part of their responsibility. In terms of secondary prevention, the community health centres do not have the authority to monitor students’ actions; the community health centres take actions based on schools’ reports. In the tertiary prevention, the community health centres only provide health examinations for identifying sexual violence. Generally, the community health centres have not played specific roles in the primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention of sexual violence among school-age children.Keywords: school-age children, sexual violence
