Abstract

Background: Failure to grow in children or what is often called stunting is one of the focuses of global problems, including Indonesia. Globally, stunting is one of the goals Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Stunting is a problem of chronic malnutrition caused by inadequate nutritional intake over a long period of time due to providing food that does not meet nutritional needs. Stunting can occur when the fetus is still in the womb and only appears when the child is two years old. Based on the results of the Indonesian Nutrition Status Survey (SSGI), the stunting prevalence rate in Indonesia fell from 24.4% in 2021 to 21.6% in 2022. This figure is still above the threshold set by the World Health Organization (WHO), namely 20%. The stunting prevalence rate in Demak Regency was ranked seventh highest in Central Java in 2019 at 50.23% and is one of 60 stunting districts. In 2019 in Demak Regency there were 4.25% or 6,129 toddlers out of a total of 97,212 toddlers who had the potential to experience stunting. This situation is a priority for the Demak Regency government to handle by determining 10 locations that will be prioritized in 2020 and 2021Purpose: To produce monitoring and promotion system application for pregnant and postpartum mothers as well as breastfeeding mothers including toddlers can detect early health problems for mothers and toddlers and is named the child stunting preventive application (ASTA).Method: This research uses research and development methods orResearch and Development (R&D). This research method is used to produce certain products and test the effectiveness of a product. This research was conducted in December 2022. The population of this study was pregnant women in Demak Regency with a sample of 24 people who were divided into two, namely 12 people as the intervention group and 12 people as the control group. The influencing variable in this study is ASTA and the influenced variable is health maintenance behavior during pregnancy, postpartum and toddlers. This research is divided into four stages, namely design, analysis, engineering and evaluation.Results: Based on the statistical test output, it is known that Asymp. Sig. (2-tailed) is worth 0.025. From this value it can be concluded that H0 rejected. This means that there are differences in the level of potential stunting in the control group respondents in terms of the pre-post treatment results. Meanwhile, it is known that in the intervention group the value of Asymp. Sig. (2-tailed) namely 0.157. This value is >0.05, so it can be concluded that H0 accepted. This means that there is no difference in the level of potential stunting between pre-post treatments in the intervention group given the ASTA application.Conclusion: There is no significant effect of using the ASTA application on the criteria for potential stunting and there is no significant difference in potential stunting data between the control and intervention groups, either before or after treatment. However, the stunting prevalence ratio is 0.7 (<1) indicating that the ASTA application is a factor that can reduce the potential for stunting.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a growth and development disorder experienced by children due to poor nutrition, recurring infections, and inadequate psychosocial stimulation. If not addressed with proper nutrition, it can lead to reduced child growth. According to the Indonesian Ministry of Health, stunting is influenced by several factors, including maternal, infant, and toddler factors, as well as social, economic, and environmental conditions. According to Global Nutrition, by 2025, it is estimated that children aged ≤ 5 years will experience stunting, with an increase of 171-314 million individuals worldwide, with 90% originating from countries in Africa and Asia. The province of Lampung has shown improvement, with a stunting prevalence of 15.2% in 2022, aiming to reach the national target of around 14%. Based on nutritional status monitoring in 2017, the prevalence of stunting was 35.20%, and according to the Indonesia Nutrition Status Study (INSS) and Community-Based Nutrition Recording and Reporting (CBNRP), the prevalence of stunting in Pesawaran in 2022 was 3.50%.Purpose: To determine the impact of using the 5J Pregnancy Nutrition Guidebook in educating pregnant mothers about preventing fetal growth restriction on the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of mothers in the working area of Gedong Tataan Community Health Center, Pesawaran, Lampung.Method: This quantitative research employed an analytical survey design with a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest method. The dependent variables in this study were the level of knowledge, attitude, and behavior of mothers, while the independent variable was education using the 5J guidebook. The research was conducted in the Gedong Tataan Community Health Center, Pesawaran, Lampung in August 2023 with a sample size of 30 using total sampling technique, and a paired sample t-test was performed.Results: Knowledge improved by 2.37 points after receiving education, with an increase difference of 1.24, and the Wilcoxon statistical test yielded a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05). Respondents' attitudes increased by 1.93 points after receiving education, although this value was in the low range, it saw a rise with a difference of 0.9, and the p-value was 0.000 (<0.05). Behavior after receiving education increased to 1.23 with an increase difference of 0.2, and the Wilcoxon statistical test showed an improvement with a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05). The test results indicate the influence of education using the 5J guidebook on maternal knowledge, attitude, and behavior.Conclusion: Educational media using the 5J guidebook has a significant influence on maternal knowledge, attitude, and behavior regarding nutrition management in the prevention of stunting.

Abstract

Background: Public Health Center (PHC) is one of the primary healthcare facilities that has an important role in the chain of survival of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients, especially in rural areas. Nurses are an important component of health workers in PHC. Basic Life Support (BLS) knowledgeis the basic component of building a qualified resuscitation.Purpose: To analyze the relationship between demographic characteristics of PHC’s nurses in a rural area and their knowledge about BLS.Method: An observational analytical study with a cross-sectional approach involved 32 PHC nurses with total sampling techniques. The data was analyzed with the Spearman Rho and Fisher Exact test.Results: 32 nurses were involved. Most respondents are male (18/56.25%), have a Diploma educational background (23/71.88%), and non-government employees (24/75%). The average age of respondents was 34.75 years, and the average worked for 9.25 years. The level of knowledge of BLS was mostly more than 56% (25/78.1%). The knowledge average was 74.06+ 8.93 with a median of 75 anda score range of 50-85. Gender, educational background, BLS certificate upgrades, and employment status were not related to the level of knowledge of BLS. Age and length of work variables have a significant correlation with knowledge. Calculated rs was -0.043 with a p-value of 0.008 (α 0.05) for age and rs value of -0.353 with a p-value of 0.024 (α 0.05) for length of work.Conclusion: Gender, educational background, BLS certificate upgrades, and employment status were not related to the level of knowledge of BLS.There is a sufficient and significant relationship between the age and length of workwith knowledge of BLS with the opposite direction of the relationship.The older and longer a nurseworks, the lowerthe nurse’s knowledge of BLS.  Routine BLS training sessions or emergency drills in PHC both online and offline can be some solution in partnership with emergency organizations and nearby referral hospitals.

Abstract

Background: The number of Tuberculosis (TB) sufferers in various regions is still high. Efforts to reduce tuberculosis rates carried out by the health service have not produced much results. One of the factors that determines the recovery of TB patients is compliance in taking anti-tuberculosis medication. Tuberculosis sufferers who do not comply with taking intensive phase medication according to the dosage rules set by health workers can develop drug resistance or rifampicin resistance, so the chance of being cured is smaller.Purpose: To determine factors of non-adherence to anti-tuberculosis treatment during intensive phase treatment of pulmonary tuberculosisMethod: This research uses cross-sectional research. This method is used to examine the relationship between one or more dependent variables and one or more independent variables at a certain time, in this case variables related to patient compliance in the intensive phase of TB treatment. The subjects in this study were 53 patients suffering from pulmonary TB in the working area of the Aikmel Community Health Center, East Lombok. The research sample was selected using the total sampling method. Data collection uses interviews and questionnaires. Data analysis in cross-sectional research involves several steps to describe and interpret the characteristics or variables observed at a particular point in time.Results: The variables education level, attitude and age have a significant relationship with adherence to taking anti-tuberculosis drugs in the intensive phase. In the education variable, the p-value (Significance Value): 0.008, Relative Influence (PR): 5.989 and Confidence Interval (CI): 1.602 – 22.389, in the attitude variable p-value: 0.038, Relative Influence (PR): 3.473, Interval Confidence (CI): 1.074 – 11.226 and p-value: 0.039, Relative influence (PR) 3.943 and Confidence Interval (CI): 1.075 – 14.468. For the variables Gender, Occupation, Side Effects of Drugs, Role of Health Workers, and Role of Drug Swallowing Supervisor, there is no significant relationship between these variables and adherence to taking anti-TB drugs in the intensive phase.Conclusion: Based on the research findings, the conclusion that can be drawn is that low education, a supportive attitude, and older age can be significant risk factors for non-adherence to taking intensive phase anti-TB drugs in pulmonary TB patients in the Aikmel Health Center area. The variables gender, occupation, drug side effects, health worker role, and therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) role did not have a significant relationship. Therefore, intervention strategies and public health approaches can be focused on these risk groups to increase the level of compliance in taking intensive phase anti-TB drugs.

Abstract

Background: Indonesia is one of the countries with a high burden of malnutrition, including stunting. One preventive measure for stunting is the optimization of pre-pregnancy services (preconception). Preconception services, especially for prospective brides and grooms, aim to identify and modify biomedical, psychological, and social risks related to women's health and pregnancy conditions through an optimal early detection strategy. Current issues regarding stunting can indeed be prevented through optimal pregnancy and marriage planning. Therefore, a strategy is needed to develop comprehensive pre-marriage planning through premarital classes.Purpose: To determine the effectiveness of pre-marital education (PME) program for marriage readiness and stunting prevention to women of childbearing ageMethod: This research used a quantitative research design with a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest approach. The instrument used a questionnaire on the physical, psychological, and social readiness of premarital individuals that had been tested for validity and reliability. The sampling method used accidental sampling, and 49 prospective brides and grooms were obtained as participants.Results: The results indicated that the "Paketin Canting" class titled "Paket Kelas Catin Cegah Stunting" had an effect on the biopsychosocial readiness of premarital individuals. In future research, the Catin class method can be further developed to enhance motivation and utilization. Additionally, further research is needed on the impact of Catin classes on reducing stunting rates in Indonesia, and statistical tests show a significant difference before and after the Paketin Canting intervention on the biopsychosocial readiness of premarital individuals (p-value = 0.000).Conclusion: There is an effect of the "Paketin Canting"- a pre-marital education program on the physical, psychological, and social readiness of premarital individuals.
