Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally, significantly impacting healthcare providers, including nurses. Despite their critical role in health promotion, many nurses neglect their cardiovascular preventive activities (CVPAs). This study assessed the prevalence and associated factors of good CVPAs among female nurses at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) Hospital. 212 registered female nurses participated in a cross-sectional study that was carried out between June and August 2015. Data on sociodemographic characteristics, work-related factors, and CVPAs were collected through a structured self-administered questionnaire. Good CVPAs were defined as adherence to dietary guidelines, regular physical activity, non-smoking, alcohol avoidance, and regular health screenings. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with good CVPAs. Only 14.2% of nurses practiced good CVPAs. While 75.5% were physically active, only 17.9% consumed five or more servings of fruits and vegetables regularly. Nurses in medical-based departments had lower odds of practicing good CVPAs compared to those in surgical-based units (OR = 0.24, 95% CI: 0.08-0.76, p = 0.015). The prevalence of good CVPAs among female nurses at USM Hospital is low, especially regarding dietary adherence. The work department significantly influences preventive practices, suggesting the need for targeted interventions to promote cardiovascular health among nurses.

Abstract

Anxiety is a common psychological response experienced by family members of patients treated in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The longer the duration of patient care, the greater the uncertainty and emotional burden that may be experienced by families. This study aims to determine the relationship between the length of patient hospitalization and the level of family anxiety in the ICU of RSUD Jampang Kulon. The research employed a quantitative correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. Data were collected from family members of patients treated in the ICU through a total sampling technique, with a sample size of 34 respondents. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) questionnaire was used to measure anxiety levels, and patient treatment duration was obtained from medical records. The results showed that most respondents experienced moderate to high levels of anxiety, with a tendency for increased anxiety corresponding to longer treatment durations. Statistical analysis using the Spearman Rank test indicated a significant relationship between the length of hospitalization and the level of family anxiety p-value = 0.001 (p-value < 0.05). The findings suggest that prolonged ICU care can elevate anxiety among family members, which may impact their psychological well-being and ability to support the patient. It is concluded that healthcare providers should consider implementing supportive interventions for families, especially when patient care in the ICU is extended, to help manage and reduce anxiety effectively.

Abstract

Workload and work stress among nurses, especially in the Emergency Room (ER), are crucial issues that affect the quality of health services. This study aims to determine the relationship between nurses’ workload and work stress in the ER of Jampang Kulon Regional General Hospital. A quantitative correlational research design was used with a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of 29 ER nurses, selected through total sampling. Data were collected using the NASA-TLX (Task Load Index) questionnaire to measure workload and a work stress questionnaire developed based on the HSE (Health and Safety Executive) standards. The results showed that 62.1% of nurses experienced a high workload, while 58.6% experienced moderate work stress. The Spearman rank test indicated a significant positive correlation between workload and work stress (p = 0.001; r = 0.642), meaning that an increase in workload is associated with an increase in work stress. This finding highlights the importance of workload management to reduce stress levels among nurses. Improving work scheduling, increasing staffing ratios, and providing regular stress management programs are recommended to enhance the nurses' well-being and service performance. In conclusion, there is a significant relationship between workload and work stress among nurses in the ER of Jampang Kulon Hospital.

Abstract

Hypertension is a major health problem that requires effective management not only by the patient but also through the support and knowledge of the family. This study aims to determine the effect of health education on family knowledge in caring for patients with hypertension in the working area of Surade Public Health Center. This research used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The population in this study consisted of 71 family members of hypertensive patients, selected using a total sampling technique. Data collection was carried out using a knowledge questionnaire administered before and after the health education intervention, which was conducted in a 45-minute session using verbal explanations, visual materials, and interactive discussions delivered by trained health educators. The results showed a substantial improvement in the level of family knowledge after the health education intervention. Before receiving education, the majority of respondents (88.7%) were categorized as having poor knowledge, with only 5.6% each in the good and fair categories. After the intervention, there was a significant shift: 28.2% of respondents were categorized as having good knowledge, 69% as fair, and only 2.8% remained in the poor category. These findings indicate that the health education intervention effectively improved the knowledge level of families in caring for patients with hypertension. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test further confirmed this improvement with a significance value of 0.001 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant difference in knowledge levels before and after the intervention. The study concludes that health education has a significant effect on increasing family knowledge in caring for patients with hypertension. Therefore, providing regular and structured health education is highly recommended to empower families in managing hypertension effectively.

Abstract

The postpartum period plays a critical role in establishing successful breastfeeding. Adequate breast milk production is essential to meet the nutritional needs of infants, particularly during the first 1,000 Days of Life (HPK), a window that significantly impacts a child's growth and development. Among the various factors that influence lactation, consistent and proper breast care practices by postpartum mothers are believed to support milk production. This study employed an analytical observational design using a cross-sectional approach. A total of 32 postpartum mothers at Klinik Pratama Hugo Hasena were selected through a total sampling technique. Data on breast care practices and breast milk production were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed using the chi-square statistical test. The findings revealed that the majority of mothers (81.3%) performed breast care routinely, and the same proportion (81.3%) reported sufficient breast milk production. Statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between breast care and breast milk production (p = 0.000). The study concludes that breast care has a significant association with breast milk production among postpartum mothers. These results highlight the importance of educating and empowering mothers on proper breast care techniques as part of postnatal support to promote successful breastfeeding. Healthcare providers are encouraged to enhance postpartum education programs, particularly focusing on the role of breast care in supporting optimal lactation and infant health during the critical early stages of life.
