Abstract

Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a health problem in Indonesia. Pontianak City as the city center of West Kalimantan Province has an important role in the spread of dengue fever. An effective integrated model for vector control is needed to reduce the incidence of dengue fever in endemic areas. We carried out an intervention using the integrated CTVVC and SAMT model for 4 weeks in 100 homes as an intervention group. To determine the impact of implementing this model, blood samples were examined from the population and Aedes Spp eggs were collected into 2 groups, namely the intervention group and the control group for 4 weeks, namely 3 weeks. before the intervention and 3 weeks after. The egg samples were then colonized into adult mosquitoes with an average age of 7 days. Next, the analysis was carried out according to the immunocytochemical method of streptavidin biotin peroxidase complex (ISBPC) and Polymerase Chain Reaction Transcription Reaction (PCR). The measurement results show that the DENV transovarial index in the intervention area is lower than in the control area, namely 40% and 50%, as well as the DENV infection index in the population shows that DENV infection is higher compared to the intervention. area, namely 26.47% and 22.50%. However, statistical analysis did not show the effect of the CTVVC-SAMT integration model on DENV transovarial transmission index and DENV infection in the population with P value: 0.66, P value: 0.109. This research succeeded in identifying the DENV-3 type.

Abstract

Health education for market residents to change behavior to create a healthy market can be done using pocketbooks, videos, and posters as the model chosen to create a healthy people's market. Socialization to stakeholders in each market is essential in making this happen. This research aims to determine the delivery mechanism, media either through barcode scans, so that stakeholders can easily convey the source of healthy market messages to traders and buyers to change the habits of market residents which originates from pocketbooks, videos, and posters, to stakeholders, including market managers, to be passed on to traders and buyers or visitors. This research used a qualitative descriptive method focusing on media delivery via QR Barcodes (pocketbooks, videos, and posters). The population in this study are stakeholders related to market management and cleanliness. The sample in this study used a quota sampling technique of 22 people, data collection used focus group discussion (FGD), and qualitative data analysis. The message delivery mechanism by implementing QR Barcodes can make it easier for stakeholders to convey healthy market messages to market residents. Traders want to create a healthy market by participating in spreading information about healthy markets through QR Barcodes. Respondents' most preferred medium for disseminating information is via WhatsApp social media, although suggestion boxes are still one way to channel complaints regarding obstacles in accessing healthy market information.

Abstract

The majority of Master of Nursing Students are experiencing moderate to high levels of stress. Especially while working on their thesis. High-stress levels in nursing students can make them vulnerable to mental health disorders. One of the interventions to solve this problem is by building their resilience. Several previous studies related to resilience in nursing students focus more on undergraduate students. This study aims to analyze factors related to resilience in a master of nursing students in one of the state universities in East Java who are working on a thesis and see the fit of the resilience model. This study used a cross-sectional design with a total sampling technique. The minimum sample size is 10x the number of exogenous variables studied. There are 6 exogenous variables in this study so the minimum sample size is 60 respondents. The sample in this study amounted to 63 respondents. Univariate analysis in this study was carried out by analyzing numerical data using mean, median, and standard deviation values. Meanwhile, for categorical data, proportion analysis is used. Multivariate analysis was carried out using Partial Least Square (PLS) using SmartPLS 4. The result of this study shows p-values for X3 and Y, X5 and Y, X6 and Y, X1 and X6, X4 and X6 are below 0,05. So it can be concluded that interpersonal communication skills, social support, and coping strategies are positively related to resilience. Spirituality and physical health were not related to resilience but were positively related to coping strategies. Meanwhile, emotional intelligence is not related to either of them. The resilience model is a good fit. Further research by improving the research design is needed to support the results of this study.

Abstract

This study addresses the persistent nutritional challenge of stunting in Indonesia, often misconceived as solely hereditary. Research indicates that genetic factors contribute only 15%, emphasizing the significance of nutritional intake, growth hormones, and maternal and toddler health in stunting. The research aims to identify and prevent early stunting in neonates, aligning with the government's goal to combat stunting by 2025. Using an observational research design and dynamic system modeling through Stella software, the study develops an effective strategy model for reducing stunted neonates in the future. Simulation experiments provide reliable insights into dynamic systems, predicting various scenarios based on input data. Results highlight the importance of enhancing Antenatal Care (ANC) standards, iron supplementation, additional nutrition, and effective case management for pregnant women. Implementation of these factors at low to medium levels could potentially reduce stunted neonates by 25%, reaching 44% at a high level compared to current conditions. The study further recommends an empowerment model for pregnant women, involving family assistance in managing highly nutritious food based on local wisdom. This holistic approach addresses the root causes of stunting, contributing to the success of stunting prevention programs in Indonesia. The research emphasizes the multifactorial nature of stunting and provides valuable insights for policymakers and healthcare practitioners to develop comprehensive strategies for effective intervention and prevention.

Abstract

Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is an acute disease caused by dengue virus infection which is a clinical manifestation of bleeding, transmitted through the bite of a female mosquito Aedes aegypti. The incidence of dengue fever is still a health problem in developing countries, including Indonesia. There are several ways to detect the presence of dengue virus, namely by Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR). The purpose of this study was to detect Dengue virus in adult female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes using RT-PCR. The type of research is a descriptive survey to determine the number of dengue virus transmission in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in Kembangan Village, West Jakarta, especially in RW02 RT 1-10. There are 62 Aedes aegypties found in 100 houses that were selected by simple random sampling. Totally 23 female Aedes aegypties were identified from a total of 62. Moreover, the result showed that all Aedes aegypti mosquitoes caught in were negative for dengue virus. There are several reasons for the limitation of RT-PCR that caused zero findings, including potential false negatives, sensitivity, low quality control measures. Moreover, the small sample size and seasonal reason also played a role in impacting the zero result.

Abstract

Patient safety is a critical global issue, prevalent in many countries. This research aims to review publications and literature regarding the factors and interventions that aid in nurse compliance with patient safety measures. Due to limited published studies on this topic, we conducted a systematic review to identify these factors and interventions based on existing literature. We searched  databases including Scopus, Science Direct, PubMed, and ClinicalKey Nursing, using specific keywords, filtering 1918 articles down to 22 articles for analysis. The study reveals that nurse implementation of patient safety is influenced by organizational culture and leadership, resource accessibility, physical facilities, communication and collaboration, workload and job satisfaction, nurses' knowledge and skills, demographic factors, and their attitudes and perceptions. Interventions for enhancing nurse compliance in patient safety include providing training and education through technological approaches, and health service delivery via information technology systems. This review offers insights into resolving nurse compliance issues in patient safety, highlighting the importance of not only individual nurses but also hospital management and the healthcare delivery system. Effective management strategies to increase  nurse compliance in patient safety should involve hospital authorities and improvements in the nursing service system.

Abstract

This study delves into the formulation of a lotion using different concentrations (0.5%, 2%, and 5%) of Moringa oleifera leaf ethanol extract, aiming to address the constant exposure of the skin to a prooxidant environment. In Indonesia, the rising interest in exploring natural plants for traditional skincare formulations is attributed to their perceived lower side effects compared to chemical substances. Employing an experimental research approach with a pre-test and post-test control group design, the study focuses on observing and controlling the formulation and effectiveness of Moringa oleifera leaf extract lotion in various skin-enhancing aspects.The research findings reveal that the formulated lotions exhibit distinctive aroma, soft texture, ease of spread, and semi-solid or gel consistency without stickiness. Physical homogeneity suggests a well-blended composition, and the pH values (6.32 for 0.5%, 6.30 for 2%, and 6.28 for 5%) fall within the ideal range, ensuring skin compatibility. Spreadability tests show the 5% concentration has the highest spreadability, while adhesive strength analysis indicates all concentrations meet the criteria for good cream adhesive strength.Furthermore, the efficacy of the lotion is assessed for moisturizing, smoothing, pore-shrinking, wrinkle-reducing, and collagen fiber density-increasing properties. Results indicate the 5% concentration is the most effective across these parameters.In conclusion, the ethanol extract lotion formulated from Moringa oleifera leaves holds promise for enhancing skin health, with the 5% concentration demonstrating the highest efficacy. This research contributes valuable insights to the development of natural skincare products with potential applications in dermatology and cosmetology, aligning with the growing interest in sustainable and effective skincare solutions.

Abstract

This research investigates the pivotal role of hospitals in healthcare, categorizing them into general and specialized facilities based on resources and capabilities. Focusing on North Sumatra, the study explores the significance of hospital conditions in influencing patients' choices, particularly in a competitive healthcare landscape driven by responsiveness to quality information. Employing a quantitative approach with non-probability sampling, the research follows a positivist philosophy to examine the connection and influence between independent and dependent variables. Conducted at the General Government Hospital in North Sumatra, the study spans from a preliminary survey in September 2023 to November 2023, with data collection ongoing and results to be presented in a seminar. The analysis reveals a substantial impact of Patient Satisfaction (PS) on Patient Loyalty (PL) (coefficient = 0.581), supported by a t-statistic value of 5.572 (>1.96) and a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05). PS also significantly influences Hospital Staff Behavior (HSB) (coefficient = 0.280, t-statistic = 2.630, p-value = 0.009 < 0.05) and Hospital Reputation (HR) (coefficient = 0.450, t-statistic = 4.789, p-value = 0.000 < 0.05). Hospital Staff (HS) demonstrates a notable influence (coefficient = 0.101) on PL, though the relationship is not statistically significant (t-statistic = 1.520, p-value = 0.129 > 0.05). Similarly, HR influences PL (coefficient = 0.124), but the relationship is not statistically significant (t-statistic = 1.402, p-value = 0.161 > 0.05). Furthermore, PS exhibits a mediated influence on PL through HSB (coefficient = 0.028, t-statistic = 1.221, p-value = 0.223 > 0.05) and through HR (coefficient = 0.056, t-statistic = 1.269, p-value = 0.205 > 0.05). These findings underscore the critical role of patient satisfaction in shaping loyalty, highlighting the mediating effects of Hospital Staff Behavior and Hospital Reputation. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for promoting healthcare competition and enhancing care quality in the North Sumatra region.

Abstract

Anaemia is a significant global public health issue that primarily affects adolescent girls. Smoking, malaria, and low family income are associated with teenage Anaemia in girls. The purpose of the study was to uncover determinant Anaemia among adolescent girls. This type of research is cross-sectional. The research location was at the high schools in Central Sulawesi from March to September 2023. The study sample was teenage girls, with as many as 384 respondents. Simple random sampling was the method used for the sample. The study's independent variables included the respondents' anthropometrics, sociodemographics, and infectious illnesses. The dependent variable was haemoglobin levels. The research instrument used a Kobotoolbox application questionnaire. They measure weight with digital scales, height with Length board measuring, and arm circumference with mid-upper arm circumstances. Laboratory analysts carried out measurements of haemoglobin levels. Chi-square test analysis of research data with a 95% confidence level. Test of logistic regression in multivariate analysis. The findings indicated that 20.3% of teenage girls suffered from Anaemia. Adolescent girls who smoke (OR=3.2, 95% CI (1.10, 8.70)), have malaria (OR=1.9, 95% CI (0.80, 5.00)), and come from an income family with less than Rp. 2.599.546 (OR=1.7, 95% CI (1.00, 2.90)) are at risk for Anaemia. Adolescent girls' anaemia prevalence was a moderate public health concern. Teenage girls who smoke, have malaria and have a family low income below are determinants for Anaemia.
