Abstract

Suboptimal growth and development in children can have adverse effects on health. This study aimed to determine the effect of developmental stimulation assistance using booklet media on the development of preschool-aged children in the working area of Samudra Public Health Center. This research was a quasi-experimental study using a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of 23 mothers with children aged 4–5 years, selected using accidental sampling. The research instruments included a questionnaire, the KPSP (Pre-Screening Developmental Questionnaire), and a booklet. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The results showed that family assistance using booklet media had a significant effect on both child development (p = 0.000) and maternal knowledge (p = 0.000). The study concludes that developmental stimulation assistance through booklet media significantly affects both the developmental status of preschool-aged children and maternal knowledge.

Abstract

The Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Book includes health records of both mother and child from pregnancy through the child’s fifth year, and functions as a communication tool among healthcare providers, pregnant women, and their families. Strengthening the use of the MCH Book among mothers aims to enhance their understanding of its function in health monitoring and as a source of health information. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of facilitated use of the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Book on pregnant women's health service-seeking behavior during pregnancy within the working area of Banda Sakti Health Center. This study utilized a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test model. The research was conducted within the working area of the Banda Sakti Public Health Center. A total of 52 pregnant women were selected as participants. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire, and statistical analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The findings indicated that guided use of the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Book significantly improved pregnant women's knowledge and health-seeking behaviors during pregnancy.

Abstract

The turnover intention rate among nurses in hospitals in Indonesia is quite high, exceeding 10% annually (above the normal limit). This phenomenon also occurred in Purwokerto, where in 2023 the turnover rate exceeded the minimum threshold of 10% per year. The causes of nurse turnover intention include workload, work stress, perceived organizational support, job satisfaction, and compensation. Nurse turnover intention can lead to a decrease in trained and expert nurses in their field. Method: This study used a cross-sectional design with 302 respondents from 6 private hospitals in Purwokerto. The sampling technique was stratified proportional random sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires, and the analysis employed binary logistic regression with the enter method. Results: The analysis of the relationship between workload, work stress, perceived organizational support, job satisfaction, and compensation on nurse turnover intention showed a p-value <0.001. Multivariate analysis using the enter method found that workload and work stress had significant effects (p = 0.001), while perceived organizational support (p = 0.368), job satisfaction (p = 0.125), and compensation (p = 0.175) did not have significant effects. Conclusion: There is a relationship between workload, work stress, perceived organizational support, job satisfaction, and compensation with nurse turnover intention. However, multivariate analysis shows that workload and work stress simultaneously influence nurse turnover intention in hospitals.

Abstract

Stunting is a condition characterized by impaired growth and development in children, caused by various factors such as poor nutrition, infections, and a lack of psychosocial stimulation. Indonesia is one of the Asian countries with a high prevalence of stunting. The increasing stunting rates have raised concerns about the nation's future generation. The aim of this study is to identify the factors contributing to stunting cases, particularly in Karangtengah Village, Sumberjo Village, Kumpulrejo Village, Kutoharjo Village, Krajankulon Village, and Sarirejo Village in Kaliwungu Subdistrict, Kendal Regency, using a logistic regression approach. The variables in this study include stunting status as the dependent variable, while the independent variables are gender, low birth weight (LBW), child disease history, marital status, maternal education, maternal height, pregnancy status, ANC history, maternal phone usage duration, maternal anemia history, child intake and nutrition, and hygiene and environmental conditions. Based on the analysis results, it was found that only the duration of maternal phone usage significantly influenced the occurrence of stunting in children, with a tendency value of 0.071.

Abstract

Dysmenorrhea is a common complaint frequently experienced by adolescent girls, which may negatively impact daily activities and quality of life. This study aims to determine the effect of abdominal stretching on menstrual pain intensity in adolescent girls. A quasi-experimental method was employed with a pretest-posttest design without a control group. The study population consisted of 88 students from grades X and XI at SMAN 1 Penawartama, with 42 respondents selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through observation and interviews using a numerical pain scale. The findings revealed that the average pain intensity before abdominal stretching was 3.00, which decreased to 1.00 after the intervention. The Wilcoxon test produced a p-value of 0.000, indicating a significant effect of abdominal stretching in reducing menstrual pain. These results suggest that abdominal stretching can be a practical, non-pharmacological alternative therapy that is easily applied independently by adolescents. The study recommends the incorporation of abdominal stretching exercises in school physical education curricula or adolescent reproductive health programs.

Abstract

Breastfeeding is the process of providing nutrition in the form of breast milk (breast milk) to the baby. This process is the physiological phase of a woman when she begins to experience pregnancy and gives birth to a baby. In order for the breastfeeding process to run smoothly, mothers must start preparing for it from the beginning of pregnancy. One of the most important factors that mothers should prepare for is knowledge about breastfeeding. To increase maternal insight and knowledge about breastfeeding, an educational medium is needed. Objective: This study aims to develop breastfeeding education media in the form of animated videos for pregnant and lactating women. Research Method: The method used in this study is the Research and Development Method with the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) model. Research results: The one-to-one test from 3 respondents obtained a percentage of 99.5% with Very Good qualifications, the Small Group Test from 10 respondents obtained a percentage of 92% with Very Good qualifications, the Field Group Test from 30 respondents obtained a percentage of 94.41% with Very Good qualifications, the Validation Results of the material expert obtained a score of 96.36%. With media feasibility criteria with Excellent qualifications and Validation Results, media experts received a score of 96.1% with media feasibility criteria with Excellent qualifications. With animated videos, health workers can use educational media that are more effective, innovative, and attractive for pregnant and lactating women.

Abstract

Along with the implementation of electronic medical records at Hermina Opi Jakabaring Hospital, various challenges have emerged in its implementation, one of which is the occurrence of duplicate medical record numbers. Duplication of medical record numbers is when a patient has two or more numbers in the medical record system. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors causing duplication of medical record numbers in electronic medical records. This research method is a descriptive qualitative method. Data were collected from 10 health workers through data collection with observation and interviews. Data were analyzed using the Fishbone method which includes five aspects, namely humans (man), equipment (machine), procedures (method), materials (material) budget (money), the results of the study showed that the biggest obstacle in the HR aspect was the lack of understanding and knowledge of officers about SOP, the unavailability of a medical card printing machine, SIMRS which does not yet have a NIK-based verification feature or a patient data duplication detection system, and the unavailability of a budget provided for the procurement of a medical card printing machine. This study provides strategic recommendations in overcoming duplication of medical record numbers so that it can improve the quality of service to patients.

Abstract

Mental health during adolescence plays a critical role in emotional and social development. One potentially influential factor is unresolved childhood emotional trauma, known as inner child behavior. This study aims to examine the relationship between inner child behavior and anxiety responses in adolescents. A correlational quantitative design was used, involving 102 students from SMA Batik 1 Surakarta selected through proportional random sampling. Inner child behavior was assessed using the standardized Wounded Inner Child Questionnaire, which contains 83 items with validity coefficients ranging from 0.196–0.765. Anxiety levels were measured using the Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), which consists of 20 items with validity coefficients ranging from 0.663–0.918. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test with a significance level of p < 0.05. Most respondents showed moderate inner child behavior (63.7%) and mild anxiety levels (51.0%). Chi-Square analysis revealed no statistically significant relationship between inner child behavior and anxiety responses (p = 0.119). The study concludes that there is no significant correlation between inner child behavior and anxiety responses among adolescents. Future research should consider emotional expression barriers and data variability.

Abstract

Pneumonia is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality due to lower respiratory tract infections, with treatment heavily reliant on antibiotic administration. However, irrational use of antibiotics significantly contributes to the rise of antimicrobial resistance. This study aimed to evaluate the rationality of antibiotic use in adult pneumonia patients at RSUD Bahteramas, Southeast Sulawesi Province, using the Gyssens method. A total of 100 hospitalized patients who met the inclusion criteria from January to December 2024 were included. Data were analyzed using the Gyssens method to assess the appropriateness of antibiotic therapy based on indication, dosage, duration, route, and timing of administration. The results showed that only 41% of antibiotic use was classified as rational (category 0), while 59% was deemed irrational (categories I–V). Levofloxacin was the most frequently used antibiotic (63%), although its use often did not align with clinical guidelines. Most patients required antibiotics for 3–4 days, consistent with recommendations for mild to moderate pneumonia. Nonetheless, inappropriate use was still observed, particularly in prolonged therapy durations and antibiotic combinations without clear indications. These findings underscore the importance of strengthening adherence to clinical guidelines and conducting regular evaluations to prevent resistance and improve treatment outcomes.

Abstract

Endorphins play a role in creating a sense of comfort and pleasure, which can help reduce anxiety in mothers. Back massage is done to stimulate the oxytocin reflex through somatic sensory stimulation of the afferent system. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of endorphin massage on breast milk production in post partum mothers at Pratama Hadijah Maternity Clinic in 2025. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a quantitative approach. The research was conducted from February to April 2025 at Pratama Hadijah Maternity Clinic. The study population included all postpartum mothers who visited Pratama Hadijah Maternity Clinic from February to April 2025. The sample used was 54 people, obtained through purposive sampling technique, and the data were analyzed using the Mann Whitney test. The results showed that as many as 36 respondents (66,7%) experienced smooth milk production after being given endorphin massage, while 18 other respondents (33,3%) showed less smooth milk production. There is a significant relationship between endorphin massage and breast milk production in post partum mothers, with a Z value of - 3.178 with a p value of 0.001 <0.05. It was concluded that mothers who received endorphin massage showed smoother breast milk production than those who did not receive the treatment. It is recommended to the clinic to apply endorphin massage therapy which is proven to have an effect on breast milk production.
