Abstract

Maternal readiness for home care is crucial for optimal LBW outcomes. However, there are still many mothers who feel unprepared. The quality of discharge teaching provided to mothers is an important factor in this readiness. This study aims to determine the relationship between the quality of discharge teaching with discharge readiness in mothers of low birth weight (LBW) in the NICU. This study used a correlational method with a cross sectional approach. The study sample was 30 respondents based on inclusion and exclusion criteria using total sampling technique. Bivariate analysis with Fisher's exact test was used to analyze the data. Of the 30 respondents, 15 (50%) had a good level of discharge teaching quality, and 19 (63.3%) demonstrated good discharge readiness. The statistical test results demonstrated a significant relationship between the quality of discharge teaching and discharge readiness in mothers of low birth weight (LBW) in the NICU (p-value 0.016 < α 0.05). Mothers who received high-quality discharge teaching had a higher proportion of readiness for discharge (75%) compared to mothers who received low/moderate quality teaching (16.7%). The quality of discharge teaching plays an important role in improving discharge readiness in LBW mothers. Therefore, efforts to improve the quality of discharge teaching are recommended through effective communication training for nurses, and use of interactive learning media.

Abstract

Low back pain is caused by physiological changes during pregnancy, including maternal weight gain, spinal lordosis, decreased abdominal muscle strength, weight changes, and relaxation-mediated joint laxity. Pregnant women reported 16% of back pain during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, 67% at 24 weeks, and 93% at 36 weeks. Management of back pain during pregnancy varies, one of which is doing prenatal yoga. This study aimed to determine the effect of applying prenatal yoga on reducing the intensity of back pain in third-trimester pregnant women. This type of research uses case studies. The population in this study was third-trimester pregnant women who experienced back pain with a sample of 3 third-trimester pregnant women. Data analysis in this research uses SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Analysis, and Management). The results of midwifery care show that back pain in pregnant women is reduced after doing prenatal yoga. This research concludes that there is an effect of applying prenatal yoga on reducing the intensity of back pain in pregnant women in the third trimester.

Abstract

Background: In children with Down syndrome, the patterns of gross and fine motor development follow the same patterns as in normal children, but developmental milestones are achieved at a later time. There are several reasons why children with Down syndrome experience delayed motor development, including cognitive factors, hypotonia, reduced muscle strength, loose joints and ligaments, and hand structure factors. Objective: To determine effective interventions in improving the development of children with Down syndrome. Research Method: Narrative review. Research Results: A review of 15 articles found that the use of trampolines, virtual reality, treadmill exercises, isokinetics, vibration, surfing, traditional Indian dance, computer-based phonics, vestibular stimulation, improvement of numerical skills, the use of picture card media, traditional games such as jamuran and engklek, and sensory integration with busy books can improve the development of children with Down syndrome. Conclusion: There are effects and benefits from the provision of each intervention in various countries on improving the development of children with Down syndrome.

Abstract

Premarital screening (PMS) is a screening procedure offered to couples planning to marry to check for genetic and infectious disorders in order to reduce the risk of disease transmission to their offspring. This preventative intervention will help to reduce the incidence of specific genetic illnesses related with marriage. The primary objective of this study was to describe young adults’ knowledge and perceptions about premarital screening in a university setting. This cross-sectional study utilized an online survey to collect data from midwifery students at STIKES Bhakti Husada Mulia Madiun. Statistical analysis was conducted using Chi-square tests. The study found a significant association between knowledge level and age group with p-value of 0.018 (p < 0.05) and Cramér's V of 0.26, indicating a moderate effect. Additionally, a significant association was found between perception level and age with p-value = 0.045 and Cramér's V of 0.21, indicating moderate effect. 37% of respondents learned about PMS through formal education, 33% from social media, 24% from health services, and the others from television and friends. The majority of midwifery students had an adequate knowledge and perception of PMS. The findings highlight the significance of formal education and health services in raising awareness of PMS. This study emphasizes the possibility of premarital screening as a preventive health application that could help to reduce genetic and infectious diseases in future generations, with implications for public health policies and interventions, including marriage health education.

Abstract

Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is an infectious disease caused by dengue virus and transmitted through the bite of female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. The disease is endemic in tropical and some subtropical regions, becoming a serious health problem especially in developing countries, including Indonesia. DHF can trigger Extraordinary Events (KLB) and cause death. Information seeking is a community effort to gain knowledge about diseases, treatments, and health hazards, which helps them make informed health decisions. This study aimed to describe the community's need for information about the prevention and treatment of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) at the Sepauk Health Center. This study was a quantitative study that used descriptive research methods. The sampling technique in this study was accidental sampling. The number of respondents was 89 people using a questionnaire research instrument for information needs related to dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). The results showed that the majority of respondents were aged 15-24 years (36.0%), female (64.0%), high school graduates (48.3%), housewives (33.7%), and had no history of DHF (71.9%). A total of 97.8% of respondents needed information about DHF, especially on how to prevent DHF at home. The most frequently used and desired source of information was health workers at health care facilities, while the most common barrier to obtaining information was lack of understanding of medical terms. People need information about DHF related to how to prevent DHF at home and the best approach for treatment. However, there are barriers to information due to lack of understanding of medical terms. This information is useful to support the DHF awareness campaign.

Abstract

Background: Data from the WHO Global Survey On Maternal And Perinatal Health shows that 46.1% of all births are performed by SC method. The WHO states that the incidence of chronic pain after SC delivery is as high as 18% and more than 80% of patients undergoing post-cesarean recovery experience pain, with approximately 75% of these patients describing moderate, severe or very severe pain. Enhanced recovery care methods are an effective way to do this. This can lead to an earlier rehabilitation and discharge process and in SC patients is known as Enhanced Recovery After Caesarian Surgery (ERACS). Research Objective: To determine the relationship between ERACS method and pain level after sectio caesarian (SC) at Pelni Hospital Jakarta in 2024. Research Methodology: Quantitative research with case control research design. The study population was all post partum mothers with SC at Pelni Hospital Jakarta in January 2024, which was 148 people and the sample obtained was 66 people. Bivariate analysis was performed with chi square test. Research Results: Univariate analysis found that most of the age is not at risk (age 20 - 35 years) as many as 54 people (81.82%), most of them have high school education, namely 40 people (60.61%), most of the mothers work, namely 36 people (55.54%). Bivariate analysis found that there is a relationship between the ERACS method and the level of pain after Sectio Caesaria (SC) at Pelni Hospital Jakarta p value (0.000) and with an OR value: 1.435 which means there is a 1.435 times chance of experiencing pain in Non Eracs labour compared to the ERACS method. Conclusion: There is a relationship between ERACS method and pain level after Sectio Caesaria (SC) at Pelni Hospital Jakarta. Suggestion: For hospitals to be able to help facilitate and prepare the necessary media for each room in organising activities.

Abstract

One of the available family planning (FP) services is postpartum family planning (PPFP). Among the recommended methods by the government for PPFP is the insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD). The use of IUDs may be influenced by factors such as parity, education level, and delivery method. This study aims to analyze the effect of age, parity, educational level, and delivery method on postpartum IUD usage. The research employed a correlational analytic design with a cross sectional approach. The study was conducted in April 2025 at Cilacap Regional Public Hospital (RSUD Cilacap). The sample consisted of 85 postpartum mothers who delivered at RSUD Cilacap between January and April 2025. Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate analyses, including the Spearman rank test and contingency coefficient. The results showed that educational level (p = 0.001) and delivery method (p = 0.025) significantly affected postpartum IUD usage.However, age (p = 0.863) and parity (p = 0.705) were not found to influence postpartum IUD usage significantly. These findings may serve as a reference to enhance the coverage of postpartum family planning, particularly the use of postpartum IUDs.

Abstract

The Indonesian cosmetics industry market is predicted to grow by 5.91% per year, including skin care products. One type of skin care is removing unwanted hair from the skin because this hair can interfere with appearance, especially for women. One way to remove this hair is by using hair removal cream (depilatory cream). One natural ingredient that has depilatory properties is turmeric. Depilatory cream also requires sulfhydryl protease enzymes that can break down the molecular structure of proteins contained in hair into amino acids. One protease enzyme is bromelain. The purpose of this study was to obtain the best formula for depilatory cream with varying levels of turmeric and bromelain enzymes based on physical evaluation results. The research method used was experimental research with stages of turmeric extraction, bromelain enzyme isolation, depilatory cream formulation, and physical evaluation of the depilatory cream. The results showed that Formula 1 was the best turmeric-based depilatory cream formula with bromelain enzyme based on physical evaluation results.
