Abstract

In Indonesia in 2022, exclusive breastfeeding coverage was recorded at 67.96%. This figure is still far from the National breastfeeding coverage target of 80%. One of the causes of the low coverage of exclusive breastfeeding is the lack of knowledge of mothers regarding the good breastfeeding process and the selfefficacy of breastfeeding mothers. The purpose of this study was to determine the description of the knowledge and self-efficacy of breastfeeding mothers in providing exclusive breastfeeding in the Parigi Health Center work area. This study used a quantitative descriptive method with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study were all breastfeeding mothers totaling 123 people for infants aged 0-6 months in the Parigi Health Center Work Area. The research sample was taken using a total sampling technique of 123 people. Data collection used a questionnaire on maternal breastfeeding knowledge and Breastfeeding Self Efficacy-Short Form (BSE-SF). Data were analyzed univariately using the mean/median formula and the data were presented in a frequency distribution table. The results showed that some mothers had a sufficient level of knowledge (61%) regarding exclusive breastfeeding. In addition, the level of self-efficacy of breastfeeding mothers is also in the high category (50.4%). It can be concluded that knowledge and self-efficacy can increase the success rate of exclusive breastfeeding. For nursing staff, especially community nurses and pediatric nurses, to be more proactive in providing structured education about the importance of exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common bacterial infections in children. Prolonged diaper use and poor parental knowledge can increase the risk of UTIs. Video-based education has the potential to improve mothers' knowledge regarding proper diaper use, diaper-free practices, and UTI prevention efforts in children. This study analyzed the effect of the BEBAS CERDAS educational video intervention on mothers' knowledge about preventing urinary tract infections in children aged 1–5 years at Hospital A. This study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. A total of 32 mothers were selected using a purposive sampling technique. Respondents received an intervention in the form of a 15-minute educational video for two days. Data were analyzed using the McNemar test. The proportion of mothers with good knowledge increased from 21.9% before the intervention to 93.8% after the intervention. The McNemar test results showed a significant difference in mothers' knowledge before and after the intervention (p < 0.001). The BEBAS CERDAS educational video has been shown to improve mothers' knowledge regarding proper diaper use, perineal hygiene, and urinary tract infection prevention in children. The BEBAS CERDAS educational video has significantly increased mothers' knowledge regarding proper diaper use, perineal hygiene, and urinary tract infection prevention in children aged 1–5 years. This educational video can be considered as a health education medium for parents in health promotion programs in hospitals.

Abstract

The Growing elderly population requires effective strategies to maintain functional capacity and support healthy ageing. Degenerative processes often decline dynamic balance, significantly increasing fall risks and reducing independence in older adults. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of combining Dynamic Sretching Exercise (DSE) and Ankle Strategy Exercise (ASE) on dynamic balance among older adults. A Quas experimental study with one group pre test post test design was conducted. Purposive sampling yielded 28 older adults aged 60-70 years at posyandu lansia ngudi was, Karanganyar. The intervention was administeres once a week for eight weeks. Dynamic balance was measured using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS) and analyzed via Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The statistical analysis showed a significant improvement in dynamic balance, with the median BBS score increasing from 52.50 at pretest to 55.00 at post test (Z=-3.651, p<0.001). post intervention data revealed that 17 participants experienced positive ranks (increase scores), while 11 remained unchanged, and none deteriorated.  The combination of DSE and ASE is significantly increasing the capacity of dynamic balance among older adults, serving as a viable preventive strategy against fall risks in community settings.

Abstract

Medication adherence and self-management remain major challenges in chronic disease management, contributing to poor health outcomes and increased healthcare utilization. Although mobile health (mHealth) interventions have shown promise, evidence on locally developed applications in Indonesia remains limited. This study evaluated the effectiveness of the SAHABAT OBAT mobile health application in improving medication adherence, self-management, and usability among patients with chronic diseases. A quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest study was conducted among 30 adults with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, or heart disease who used the application for four weeks. Medication adherence, self-management, and usability were assessed using the MMAS-8, Partners in Health Scale, and System Usability Scale. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Medication adherence increased significantly (5.60±2.27 vs. 6.60±1.67; p=0.003; r=0.55), as did self-management (44.70±7.34 vs. 46.03±6.07; p=0.006; r=0.50). The application achieved an excellent usability score (SUS=91.68). Integrating reminders, education, and self-monitoring into a single mobile platform may strengthen patient engagement and support sustainable self-management. SAHABAT OBAT effectively improved medication adherence and self-management while demonstrating excellent usability, supporting its integration into primary healthcare for chronic disease management.

Abstract

Recovery has become a central focus in contemporary mental health care. However, evidence on the meaning of recovery from the perspectives of mental health survivors remains limited in Indonesia. This study aimed to explore the meaning of recovery among mental health survivors. A qualitative descriptive study was conducted using Focus Group Discussions (FGDs). Ten mental health survivors were recruited through purposive sampling from a mental health community in West Java, Indonesia. Data were collected between March and May 2025 using semi-structured discussion guides and analyzed through thematic analysis. Four themes emerged from the data: (1) self-acceptance and confidence to move forward, (2) social support as a source of recovery strength, (3) stigma as a challenge in the recovery journey, and (4) hope for a meaningful life. Participants perceived recovery as a dynamic process involving personal growth, supportive relationships, overcoming stigma, and pursuing meaningful goals. Recovery was influenced by both individual and social factors. Self-acceptance, social support, and hope facilitated recovery, whereas stigma remained a significant barrier. Recovery extends beyond symptom reduction and involves rebuilding identity, strengthening social connections, and achieving a meaningful life. Recovery-oriented mental health nursing should promote empowerment, social support, and stigma reduction to support survivors' recovery journeys.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major non-communicable disease with a continuously increasing global prevalence. Psychological stress is a modifiable risk factor associated with impaired glucose regulation; however, public awareness of stress management remains limited. This study aimed to determine the effect of structured deep breathing education on adults' deep breathing skills as a non-pharmacological approach to support DM risk reduction. A quasi-experimental study with a one-group pretest-posttest design was conducted among 43 adults selected through purposive sampling in Kebayoran Lama Selatan, South Jakarta. Participants received education and guided practice in slow deep breathing, and their skills were assessed using an observation checklist before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The median skill score increased from 26 (Q1–Q3: 25–31) before the intervention to 40 (Q1–Q3: 31–43) after the intervention. A statistically significant improvement was observed (Z = −4.863, p < 0.001), with a large effect size (r = 0.742). Structured deep breathing education significantly improved participants' ability to perform the technique correctly. These findings suggest that deep breathing education may serve as a simple complementary nursing intervention to support stress management as part of DM risk reduction strategies.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) remains a major public health concern in Indonesia, with a steadily increasing prevalence. One of the most serious complications of DM is diabetic foot ulcer infection, which contributes to increased morbidity, prolonged hospitalization, and reduced quality of life. Effective management of diabetic ulcer infections requires not only multidisciplinary healthcare interventions but also adequate self-efficacy, positive self-concept, and effective self-management among patients. The study aimed to examine the relationship between diabetic ulcer infection and self-efficacy, self-concept, and self-management among patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. This quantitative study employed a cross-sectional design. A total of 30 patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and diabetic ulcer infections were recruited using purposive sampling at Pasar Rebo Regional General Hospital. Data were collected using the Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy Scale (DMSES), Tennessee Self-Concept Scale (TSCS), Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ), and the Wagner Classification Scale for diabetic ulcer assessment. Significant relationships were found between diabetic ulcer infection severity and self-efficacy, self-concept, and self-management (p < 0.05). Self-efficacy and self-management demonstrated strong correlations with ulcer severity, while self-concept showed a moderate correlation. Self-efficacy, self-concept, and self-management are significantly associated with diabetic ulcer infection severity among patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Enhancing these factors may improve diabetic ulcer management and patient outcomes.

Abstract

A megathrust disaster is a geological event caused by the movement of tectonic plates, leading to potentially severe damage to infrastructure due to immense pressure accumulated in the subduction zone from the friction between two plates. This disaster caused 3 people to die, 29 were injured, 151 people were displaced, out of 101,500 people who suffered. The impacts of megathrust earthquakes affect various aspects of life and the environment, including individuals’ knowledge and preparedness. Coastal traders, whose locations are often in close proximity to the coastline, are at high risk of losing their livelihoods and assets, which may increase their anxiety levels. This study aims to examine the relationship between knowledge and preparedness with the anxiety levels of coastal traders in the southern coastal region in the context of megathrust disasters. A quantitative research method with a cross-sectional design was employed. Data were collected using questionnaires measuring knowledge, preparedness, and anxiety levels. The study involved 71 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The results showed no significant relationship between knowledge and anxiety levels (p = 0.653; r = 0,054). However, a significant relationship was found between preparedness and anxiety levels (p = 0.049, r = 0,234). It is recommended that future studies explore the effectiveness of disaster education or training interventions in reducing anxiety levels among traders in high-risk coastal areas.

Abstract

Family empowerment is an essential component of Family-Centered Nursing that enhances the family's ability to participate in patient care. However, evidence regarding its application in patients with osteomyelitis complicated by hyperglycemia remains limited because delayed wound healing requires continuous family involvement. This case report aimed to describe the implementation of Family-Centered Nursing combined with Metcovazin wound care in a family caring for a patient with chronic osteomyelitis and hyperglycemia. Nursing interventions included education on hyperglycemia, wound care demonstrations using Metcovazin ointment, dietary counseling, and environmental hygiene education. Wound progression was evaluated over seven days using the Bates–Jensen Wound Assessment Tool (BJWAT). Following the interventions, the family demonstrated improved knowledge and the ability to perform appropriate wound care, adopted dietary management, and improved environmental hygiene. Wound improvement was reflected by a reduction in the BJWAT score from 40 to 18 (55%) over seven days. In this case, the Family-Centered Nursing approach combined with Metcovazin wound care was associated with improved family participation in wound management and favorable wound healing outcomes. These findings suggest that family empowerment may support home-based wound care for patients with osteomyelitis and hyperglycemia.

Abstract

Low self-esteem during adolescence highly correlates with chronic psychological distress and psychiatric morbidity, necessitating prompt school-based and domestic interventions. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a combined Butterfly Hug and positive affirmation intervention on the self-esteem of junior high school students. A quasi-experimental, one-group pre-test and post-test design was applied to 27 junior high school students selected via purposive sampling. The combined intervention was administered twice daily (collectively at school and independently at home before sleep) over 7 consecutive days. Data were systematically analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Wilcoxon signed-ranks test in SPSS. The baseline pre-test indicated that 70.4% of students had moderate self-esteem and 29.6% had high self-esteem. Post-intervention analysis revealed a significant shift, with high self-esteem levels escalating to 85.2% (Z=−3.589, p=0.000). The dual-action therapy operates synergistically; the Butterfly Hug induces rapid somatic stabilization, lowering anxiety and expanding neurocognitive receptivity, which allows positive affirmations to effectively restructure maladaptive core beliefs. The combined intervention of the Butterfly Hug and positive affirmations significantly improves adolescent self-esteem, providing a scalable modal for community psychiatric nursing.
