Abstract

According to WHO data in 2016, the incidence of skin irritation (diaper rash) was 25% out of 1,000,000 outpatient visits by infants. In Indonesia, the incidence of diaper rash based on data from the Ministry of Health’s Center for Data and Information in 2019 reached 7–35% of 23,604,923 children under the age of three, with 87,601 cases reported in Purwakarta Regency alone. This indicates that the prevalence of diaper rash remains high, primarily due to prolonged diaper use and parents’ lack of knowledge about signs of toilet training readiness, which often results in delays in its implementation. Delayed toilet training can negatively impact a child’s independence, making it important to provide health education for parents to help prevent long-term effects such as hindered self-reliance in children. This study aims to analyze the effect of health education on children's toilet training, delivered through the iPosyandu parent-based application, on mothers' knowledge and attitudes.The research employed a quantitative method using a one-group pretest-posttest design, involving 73 mothers of toddlers in Pasawahan Village, Purwakarta Regency. Samples meeting the inclusion criteria were selected using purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and effect size value. The results showed significant differences in mothers’ knowledge and attitudes about children's toilet training before and after the health education intervention via the iPosyandu parent-based application (p < 0.05). Additionally, a strong influence was found between the educational intervention and improvements in both knowledge and attitudes (R ≥ 0.5). In conclusion, health education on children's toilet training delivered through the iPosyandu parent-based application significantly affects mothers’ knowledge and attitudes. Keywords: Attitude, health education, iPosyandu, knowledge, toilet training

Abstract

Sports accidents can have a very significant impact on various aspects of life. However, public knowledge regarding this still needs to be improved and uneven, so it is essential to disseminate information related to preventing and handling sports accidents. This study aimed to determine the effect of health education on public knowledge in the prevention and early handling of sports accidents. This study was a pre-experimental study with a one-group pre-post-test approach. The research sample consisted of 230 respondents and was conducted using an accidental sampling technique. Data analysis was done by looking at the difference in pre-test and post-test values using the Wilcoxon difference test. The results of the study showed that before health education was given, the average value of respondents' knowledge was 59.30 ± 26.21.Meanwhile, after being given health education, the average score increased to 84.87 ± 20.27. Bivariate analysis showed a statistically significant difference with a p-value <0.001. This shows a difference in public knowledge about sports accidents before and after being given health education. There is a need for activities like this to be carried out in other communities and society in general so that the dissemination of information and public understanding related to sports accidents will improve and the impact of delays in handling injuries can be minimized. Keywords: Health education; knowledge; sports accidents.

Abstract

Evidence suggests that cold therapy (cold spray) may be recommended with low confidence for reducing swelling in acute soft tissue injuries among athletes. However, the effect of cold therapy on the mechanical function of muscles remains unclear. This study aims to explore the effects of cold therapy application as a treatment strategy to reduce pan in acute sport injuries. Data collection was conducted in April 2024. We present a case of an acute knee injury in a 16-year-old male during a football tournament. He reported pain with a VAS score of 8 (on a scale of 1 to 10). The patient received cold spray as first aid for his knee injury. However, reassessment revealed that the pain level did not decrease. Several factors may influence the effectiveness of cold spray in reducing pain, including the type of affected nerve fibers, duration of the intervention, history of repeated injuries, size of the injured area, and improper spraying technique. Cold spray is effective in reducing pain and inflammation in superficial tissues. However, in acute injuries involving deeper tissues, cold spray does not significantly alter the pain level. Its effectiveness in reducing inflammatory responses in deeper tissues remains uncertain and warrants further investigation. Keywords: acute pain, cold therapy, foot injury

Abstract

The prevalence of hypertension among adolescents continues to rise both nationally and globally. Hypertension at a young age often goes undetected and carries the risk of leading to serious complications later in life, including cardiovascular disease, stroke, kidney failure, and even death. The lack of adolescent knowledge regarding risk factors, symptoms, prevention, and the long-term impact of hypertension remains a major barrier to effective health promotion and prevention efforts. This activity aimed to enhance adolescent knowledge of hypertension—its definition, risk factors, symptoms, prevention, and management—through a structured, interactive educational class program. The program was implemented on three main stages: preparation, implementation (including material presentation and discussion), and evaluation through pre- and post-tests to a total of 29 student representatives from schools and universities in Padang City, with an average age of 18 years, participated. The results showed a significant increase in knowledge scores (p < 0.001), with mean pre-test and post-test scores of 15.04 ± 2.6 and 18.52 ± 0.94, respectively (Δ = 3.48). Significant improvements were observed in general knowledge of hypertension, risk factors, symptoms and consequences, dietary prevention strategies, and hypertension management (p < 0.01). These findings indicate that the educational class program was effective in improving adolescent health literacy regarding hypertension. It is recommended that this health education intervention be expanded to strengthen hypertension prevention efforts among young age groups. Keywords: Adolescent hypertension, educational class program, prevention, healthy behavior.

Abstract

Edema is a common complication in patients with chronic kidney disease (GGK) caused by fluid retention and electrolyte imbalance, leading to discomfort, limited mobility, and reduced quality of life. Non-pharmacological interventions such as a combination of ankle pump exercise and 30° leg elevation are known to reduce edema by improving venous and lymphatic return. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of combining ankle pump exercise and 30° leg elevation in reducing the degree of edema in GGK patients. This case study employed an Evidence-Based Nursing (EBN) approach involving two GGK patients in the Male Internal Ward of RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang. The intervention patient received a combination of ankle pump exercise and 30° leg elevation along with pharmacological therapy (furosemide), while the control patient received only standard pharmacological therapy. The intervention was conducted for four consecutive days, three times daily, for 30 minutes per session. The degree of edema was assessed using the pitting edema method by Brodovicz before and after the intervention. The results showed a reduction in edema degree from degrees 3 to degrees 2 in the intervention patient, while the control patient experienced an increase from degrees 3 to degrees 4. This finding indicates that the combination of ankle pump exercise and 30° leg elevation effectively reduces edema through calf muscle contractions that promote venous return and gravitational effects that lower hydrostatic pressure in the lower limbs. This intervention is safe, inexpensive, easy to perform, and can be integrated into daily nursing practice. In conclusion, the combination of ankle pump exercise and 30° leg elevation is an effective, evidence-based, non-pharmacological nursing intervention to reduce the degree of edema in GGK patients and can serve as an alternative to improve patient comfort. Keywords: Chronic kidney disease, edema, ankle pumping exercise, 30° leg elevation.
