Abstract

Emesis gravidarum is excessive nausea and vomiting that commonly occurs in pregnant women in the first trimester. This condition can disrupt daily activities, reduce nutritional intake, and impact the health of both the mother and the fetus. The use of non-pharmacological therapies such as ginger aromatherapy is considered safer and more effective because ginger contains active compounds like gingerol which have the ability to prevent or reduce nausea and vomiting in pregnancy.This study aims to determine the effect of ginger aromatherapy on reducing emesis gravidarum in pregnant women in the first trimester at PMB Morina Neri Deli Serdang in 2025. This type of research is quantitative with a pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The sample consisted of 20 respondents selected using purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through observation sheets using the PUQE Score (Pregnancy-Unique Quantification of Emesis) before and after the treatment of ginger aromatherapy for 5 consecutive days. The results of the study  showed that after conducting the Wilcoxon test with a P value of 0.000 < 0.05, it indicates that there is an effect of ginger aromatherapy tretment on reducing emesis gravidarum in pregnant women in the first trimester at PMB Morina Neri Deli Serdang in 2025. The conclusion of this study is that there is an effect of ginger aromatherapy on reducing emesis gravidarum in pregnant women in the first trimester at PMB Morina Neri Deli Serdang in 2025. It is expected that at PMB Morina Neri Deli Serdang, ginger aromatherapy can be utilized as a safe supportive therapy in midwifery services, particularly in handling complaints of nausea and vomiting in early pregnancy.

Abstract

Infant development according to their age shows that 52.5% experience gross and fine motor disorders. Lack of stimulation in infants can cause developmental delays that impact subsequent stages. Several factors influence gross motor development, including biological, environmental, health, and psychosocial factors. The recommended stimulation is baby massage. This study aims to determine the effect of baby massage on gross motor development in infants aged 3-6 months at Midwife Sehati's Private Practice. This study uses a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test approach without a control group. The population of this study consists of 30 infants aged 3-6 months, and the sample includes 15 infants selected through purposive sampling. Baby massage is performed for 4 weeks with a frequency of twice a week. Data analysis in this study uses the Wilcoxon test. The study of the results showed that before the intervention, 15 infants (100%) had motor development categorized as questionable. After the baby massage intervention, 13 infants (86.7%) were categorized as normal, and 2 (13.3%) were questionable. The Wilcoxon test results with a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05) indicated that the hypothesis was accepted, suggesting that baby massage has a significant effect on gross motor development in infants aged 3-6 months at PMB Sehati Medan in 2026. The conclusion, baby massage performed by the researcher can support gross motor development in infants. It is suggested that healthcare professionals provide baby massage counseling to support gross motor development in infants.

Abstract

DPT1 immunization is an important basic immunization that protects infants from diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus. Despite its benefits, DPT1 immunization may cause side effects, including fever, which can lead to discomfort in infants and concern among parents. Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC), a skin-to-skin contact method between mother and infant, is a non-pharmacological intervention that promotes thermoregulation, comfort, and physiological stability in infants. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the kangaroo method in reducing fever following DPT1 immunization among infants aged 2–4 months. A quantitative approach was employed using a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest group design. The study involved 20 infants who received DPT1 immunization and were selected through purposive sampling. The data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analyzes with SPSS version 25. The Wilcoxon Match Pairs Test was used to assess differences in body temperature before and after the intervention. The findings revealed a significant reduction in body temperature following the application of the kangaroo method, with a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05). These results indicate that the kangaroo method is effective in reducing fever after DPT1 immunization in infants aged 2–4 months. Therefore, KMC can be considered a safe, simple, and effective non-pharmacological intervention for managing post-immunization fever in infants.

Abstract

Asphyxia is a condition in which a baby cannot immediately breathe spontaneously and regularly. Babies with a history of fetal distress before birth will generally experience asphyxia at birth. The causes of asphyxia can originate from maternal, fetal, and placental factors. The presence of hypoxia and tissue ischemia cause functional and biochemical changes in the fetus. The impacts that can be caused by asphyxia include organ damage, severe hypoxia such as heart, lungs, liver, intestines, kidneys, and brain damage. This study generally aims to analyze the relationship between low birth weight and premature babies with the incidence of asphyxia at General Ahmad Yani Regional Hospital, Metro City. This study is a quantitative study with a case-control study design. The case population is all newborns with asphyxia, the control population is all newborns without asphyxia, the study sample amounted to 66 respondents consisting of 33 case samples and 33 control samples, which were taken using a simple random sampling technique. Analysis used the chi-square test with a 95% confidence level. The results of the study on asphyxia babies (case group) obtained a frequency distribution of low birth weight babies of 57.6% and a frequency distribution of premature babies of 68.2%. The results of the statistical test showed a relationship between low birth weight babies and the incidence of asphyxia with a p-value = 0.001 and OR = 0.154 that low birth weight babies have a 0.154 times greater risk of experiencing asphyxia, as well as premature babies with the incidence of asphyxia with a p-value = 0.034 and OR = 0.267 which means that premature babies will have a 0.267 greater risk of experiencing asphyxia than babies who are not premature. The conclusion of the study is a relationship between low birth weight and premature babies with the incidence of asphyxia. Efforts made to prevent the incidence of asphyxia can be a comprehensive pregnancy check-up, especially for mothers with high-risk factors such as too young/too old age, pregnancy with comorbidities, low nutritional status, or a history of problematic pregnancies and increasing promotive and preventive measures related to the risk of low birth weight and prematurity with the incidence of asphyxia.

Abstract

Stunting is a condition in which children under five years old (toddlers) cannot grow due to chronic malnutrition, causing the child to be shorter than their age. Based on 2024 data, stunted toddlers in the world were 23.2%, in Indonesia 19.8%, in Lampung Province 13.1%, in Metro City 12.1%, in 2023 at Banjarsari Health Center 6.08%. Stunting causes a 4.56-fold decrease in IQ compared to non-stunted children, stunted children are likely to have a non-verbal IQ below 89, so the government issued specific nutritional interventions, one of which is for breastfeeding mothers. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between specific nutritional interventions for breastfeeding mothers and toddlers with stunted toddlers at Banjarsari Health Center. This type of research is quantitative with a case-control design. The population of all toddlers at Banjarsari Health Center is 622 toddlers. The sample size was determined based on the Sastroasmoro formula, obtaining 66 respondents. The sampling technique used stratified random sampling. Data collection was conducted using height measurements, observation, interviews, and documentation using a checklist and stadiometer. Data were analyzed univariately and bivariately using chi-square. The results of the study from 66 respondents showed that the proportion of specific nutritional interventions for breastfeeding mothers and infants from birth to 6 months was 87.9%, and the proportion of specific nutritional interventions for breastfeeding mothers and children aged 7-23 months was 92.1%. Based on the analysis, the p-value for specific nutritional interventions for breastfeeding mothers and infants from birth to 6 months was (p=0.014 OR=7.8) and specific nutritional interventions for breastfeeding mothers and children aged 7-23 months were (p=0.039, 0R=9.5). The conclusion from the results of the study at the Banjarsari Community Health Center in 2025 was that there was a significant relationship between specific nutritional interventions for breastfeeding mothers and stunted toddlers. Efforts to prevent and overcome stunting should be carried out through the active involvement of health workers together with Posyandu cadres and intensive assistance for breastfeeding mothers. Improvement of nutritional counseling services also needs to be optimized with a flexible schedule and a personal approach, including through home visits. These efforts must be supported by cross-sector collaboration, increased access to health services, and the use of digital media to disseminate nutrition information widely and facilitate communication between mothers and health workers.
