Abstract

Early marriage among adolescents is a significant social issue that is often linked to unintended pregnancies resulting from premarital sexual activity. This cross-sectional study aimed to identify the factors associated with early marriage among teenagers in Kelurahan Sari Rejo, Medan Polonia, Indonesia, from October 2023 to May 2024. A total of 65 early married adolescents aged 15-18 years were included in this study. The findings revealed that parental education, socioeconomic status, and parenting style were not significantly associated with early marriage. However, information source and peer influence were significant predictors. Adolescents who engaged in unhealthy peer relationships were 2.20 times more likely to marry early than those with healthy peer associations. These results underscore the importance of peer influence and the need for comprehensive sex education programs to address early marriages among teenagers.

Abstract

This study investigated factors associated with hypertension during pregnancy (HDP) in Langkat Regency, Indonesia, where HDP cases have been increasing. Conducted at Sei Bamban Health Center between November 2023 and April 2024, the study included 47 third-trimester pregnant women. Data on maternal age, parity, BMI, family history of hypertension, secondhand smoke exposure, dietary habits, physical activity, and antenatal care (ANC) adherence were collected via questionnaires. Gestational hypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were performed using SPSS. While age and parity showed no significant association with HDP, elevated BMI (≥22.9 kg/m²) (p=0.010; OR 5.120; 95%CI: 1.427-18.373), a history of hypertension (p=0.016; OR 4.411; 95%CI: 1.282-15.174), exposure to cigarette smoke (p=0.000; OR 27.273; 95%CI: 3.165-235.024), low fat/salt intake (p=0.000; OR 0.088; 95%CI: 0.020-0.382), low physical activity (p=0.000; OR 31.667; 95%CI: 5.676-176.680), and non-adherence to ANC (p=0.000; OR 17.944; 95%CI: 3.391-94.948) were significantly associated with HDP. These findings highlight the importance of ANC adherence and risk factor management, including lifestyle modifications, for HDP prevention. The study recommends targeted education, counseling, screening, and monitoring of at-risk pregnant women.

Abstract

The implementation of occupational health and safety programs in hospitals aims to improve access, affordability, and quality of safe health services in hospitals. While some hospitals have implemented Occupational Safety and Health Management Systems (OSHMS), their effectiveness varies. This study aimed to examine and evaluate the effectiveness of OSHMS implementation in Hospital X. This qualitative research used a case study design. A purposive sampling technique was used in this study. The research informants selected included an OSH Committee Team of three people and seven hospital employees. This study used a combination of observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation methods to obtain comprehensive data on the implementation of OSHMS. Data analysis was conducted through a series of systematic steps, starting with the transcription of observation and interview results in textual form. The coded data were analyzed to identify patterns, meanings, and relationships between themes. Themes were analyzed deductively, focusing on policy, responsibility, and authority to act, and the review and evaluation of OSHMS. The results of this analysis were interpreted by the researcher and linked to the research context and relevant theories, resulting in useful and meaningful findings. The results showed that the hospital demonstrated a commitment to OSH through comprehensive policies and implementation efforts. However, there are still some shortcomings in terms of the person in charge of the OSH in the work unit, as well as review and evaluation mechanisms. Improvements in these aspects can help to increase the effectiveness of OSHMS implementation in hospitals.

Abstract

The unmet need for family planning is a significant reproductive health issue, particularly in developing countries. This study aimed to identify the factors associated with the unmet need for family planning among women visiting puskesmas in Medan City. This study used a cross-sectional design and included 186 participants. Data were collected using questionnaires. Data were analyzed using the chi-squared test and logistic regression. The results showed that age, education, knowledge, and perception of family planning were significantly associated with an unmet need for contraception (p<0.05). The younger the age, the lower the level of education, the lower the knowledge and perception of family planning, and the higher the likelihood of an unmet need for contraception. In contrast, family income and parity were not significantly associated with the unmet need for family planning. Satisfaction with family planning services was also not significantly associated with unmet need for contraception. The results highlight the importance of comprehensive interventions to address the unmet need for family planning. Educational programs targeting younger age groups, especially those with low educational levels, need to be improved. Additionally, efforts to improve knowledge and change community perceptions of family planning are crucial.
