Abstract

WHO recommends that every infant should be exclusively breastfed, but until now the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding is still low due to factors such as knowledge, breastfeeding efficacy, family support, lactation problems, and barriers in the health care system.  This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Small group education of cadres with pregnant women on breastfeeding efficacy among third trimester pregnant women on Enggano Island. The research design was a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test with a control group. The treathird trimesterent group was pregnant women who received Small group education of cadres with pregnant women while the control group was pregnant women who received conventional education. The study was conducted at Enggano Health Centre from January to November 2023 with a sample of 50 pregnant women in the third trimester of pregnancy from 25-36 weeks of age, selected by purposive sampling.  The research instruments were modules and leaflets on exclusive breastfeeding, developed through a needs assessment, while breastfeeding efficacy was measured using the Breastfeeding Self-efficacy Scale-Short Form (BSES-SF). Data were analysed univariate, bivariate with  wilcoxon and multivariate with spearman rank test. The results showed that there was an effect of Small group education of cadres with pregnant women class education on breastfeeding effectiveness with p=0.00 mean difference of 19.56. There was an effect of conventional class education on breastfeeding effectiveness in the control group with p=0.46 mean difference of 1.12. The class was more effective in improving breastfeeding practices among pregnant women with p=0.00 mean difference of 47.26. Class and education level were the most dominant factors in improving breastfeeding efficiency among pregnant women. The conclusion of this study is that the small group education of cadre with pregnant women is effective in improving breastfeeding efficacy in pregnant women in the third trimester.  Keywords: Breastfeeding, Education, Efficacy, Small Group

Abstract

Patient admissions help nurses identify service areas to improve patient safety Patient admissions help nurses identify service areas to improve patient safety. Effective communication between nurses and patients is very important in providing quality services. Inaccurate information can have a serious impact on patients, incidents are caused by poor communication, less than optimal communication. The aim of this research was to determine the effect of consideration training on nurses' communication skills in the inpatient room at the Surakarta Muhammadiyah Ummah Welfare Development Hospital. This research uses a preexperimental research method with one group pretest-posttest. The research sample was nurses who worked in inpatient rooms. Sampling was taken through purposive sampling, with the inclusion criteria of nurses with 1 year of work experience. The instruments used were a consideration and acceptance questionnaire adopted from Payne as well as a consideration and acceptance implementation checklist quoted from Parke & Mishkin. Data analysis used the Paired Sample-T test with a significance level of 5%, CI-95% confidence interval. The analysis results indicate that there is no significant difference in communication skills before and after the training (p=0.083). Handover training activities have no effect on nurses' communication skills, and they do not significantly improve the quality of nurses' communication abilities in the inpatient ward. Several things that can be recommended include a commitment to carry out considerations in the form of policies, direction and evaluation of the implementation of considerations, for the sake of continuity of nursing care which has an impact on increasing nurses' communication skills in implementing patient safety as well as adding samples to ensure sample representation in further research and optimize patient admission training by providing strict sanctions for nurses who do not carry out patient admission proceduresKeywords: Communication, Handover, Nursing, Skills, Training

Abstract

One of the information systems needed in a hospital to support services is the inpatient information system. Several field constraints that often occur and can impede patient services include: limited bed space, hindered coordination between units or rooms, sudden changes in bed space requirements, the lack of integration of information systems, incomplete and inaccurate documentation of patient mobilization, the length of the patient discharge process, unavailable facilities in rooms, and the existence of hospital service indicators that must be achieved. Based on the above, a real-time and integrated information system is required, starting from the registration of inpatients to their discharge, in order to improve the quality of service and patient satisfaction. The design of the Inpatient Monitoring and Evaluation System for the Executive Report is an enhancement of the hospital information system that integrates all inpatient patient service activities, including supporting facilities, to generate useful information for monitoring and developing inpatient care services. This information can be used as a basis for decision-making by the leaders. The design of the Inpatient Monitoring and Evaluation System for the Executive Report utilizes the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) method in the form of a prototype, with  the drafting phase starting from design to development. The final result of this information system design consists of comprehensive, integrated, and real-time information related to patient activities from admission to discharge, presented in a dashboard that is useful for monitoring and evaluating inpatient care services. It can also serve as a basis for decision-making by hospital leaders and achieving hospital indicators. Keywords: Bed management,  dashboard, information,  inpatient, integration

Abstract

The prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding in various cities of Bangka Belitung Province varies, where in 2018 from January to June, the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding in Bangka Belitung Islands Province was relatively low (57.6%). The problem of milk production is influenced by the reduced stimulation of oxytocin hormone. One of the non-pharmacological therapies that can be done is relaxation by doing Mindfulness therapy. The aim was to determine the effect of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) on oxytocin levels and stress in breastfeeding mothers for 2 weeks consisting of 8 sessions in 3 meetings. The research method used was quantitative with a quasi experimental research design (pretest-posttest control group design). Penelitian ini dilakukan at Regional General Hospital Dr. (HC) Ir. Soekarno, Bangka Belitung Province in 2023. Dilaksanakan pada bulan Januari sampai dengan Maret 2023. The population in this study were breastfeeding mothers at Regional General Hospital Dr. (HC) Ir. Soekarno, Bangka Belitung Province with a sample of 36 using purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using a questionnaire. Data analysis was univariate and bivariate dengan uji t-test and Mann Whitney test . The results of mindfulness-based stress reduction increased oxytocin hormone levels in breastfeeding mothers for 2 weeks consisting of 8 sessions in 3 meetings lasting 150 minutes per meeting and mindfulness-based stress reduction decreased stress scores in breastfeeding mothers for 2 weeks consisting of 8 sessions in 3 meetings lasting 150 minutes per meeting. It is recommended that midwives provide information about Mindfulness therapy to increase the hormone oxytocin in breastfeeding mothers and can play an active role in overcoming the problems of breastfeeding mothers who experience anxiety or worry about producing breast milk and breastfeeding babies. Keywords : Brestfeeding mothers, MBSR, Oxytosin levels
