Abstract

Musculoskeletal disorders are usually used to describe a condition such as an injury, pain, or abnormality in the skeletal muscle system which consists of nerve tissue, muscles, bones, ligaments, tendons, and joints. Musculoskeletal disorders are a disease that is often experienced or felt by workers due to work attitudes and work positions that are not ergonomic as well as long working hours and workloads that are often received by workers. This study aims to determine the factors that cause musculoskeletal disorders in rice mill workers in Lembor District. This study used an analytical study with a cross-sectional study design. The research location is in a rice mill in Lembor District, and the data were conducted from January to August 2020. The subjects in this study were 60 rice mill workers. Dependent variables: musculoskeletal disorders, independent variables age, years of service, length of work, work position, and workload. This study uses a simple linear regression test. The results of statistical tests showed that the variable age was associated with musculoskeletal disorders (p-value = 0.013), the working period variable was related to musculoskeletal disorders (p-value = 0.000), the length of work variable was related to musculoskeletal disorders (p-value = 0.012), work position was related to musculoskeletal disorders. Musculoskeletal disorders (p-value = 0.049), and workload not associated with musculoskeletal disorders (p-value = 0.538). It is hoped that rice mill workers can have their health checked if they experience disorders in all parts of their bodies and pay attention to their body position during work.

Abstract

A health department student is an individual who has a higher level of knowledge and education in the field of health. However, around 37,3% of college students in Indonesia, including health students, are smokers. Previous studies of health students showed the desire of smokers to quit smoking. The intention to quit smoking can be identified through a process of change at the contemplation stage. The research described smoking behaviour change on the contemplation stage on health department students in Kota Kupang in 2021. The type of research was qualitative with the technique of in-depth interviews. This research recruited nine health students in Kota Kupang who have willing to change their smoking behaviour. The research found that while all informants intend to quit smoking, three have not yet committed to changing actions. Four behaviour change processes played a significant role in raising awareness and forming the intention to quit among informants on the contemplation stage. Therefore, health students should not smoke to be a good agent of change for society. Behaviour change communication and health promotion need to ensure the involvement of the four change processes for smokers to be at the contemplation stage and readily moved to an action stage.

Abstract

The density of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae is a risk factor for Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever transmission. Density Figure (DF) is a measurement to determine the success of Aedes aegypti control with four leading indicators (House Index/HI, Container Index/CI, Breteau Index/BI, and Larva Free Figure/ABJ). In addition, community participation, manifested in the Mosquito Nest Eradication Movement, is also essential to prevent and control DHF. This study determined the density figure of mosquito larvae and community participation in the DHF prevention in Oesapa Urban Village, Kupang City, in 2021. This research was a descriptive research type with a total sample of 99 households. Data univariably analysis on water container material, water container type, water container cover presence, and community participation. The results showed that most of the respondents used plastic water container material (57.51%), TPA container type (55.09%), and presented uncovered water container (63.05%). The DF of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae was in the high category with HI (35.36%), CI (51.86%), BI (324.42%), and ABJ of 64.65%. Therefore, the community should be more aware and consistent to apply PSN-DHF, focusing on 3M Plus implementation to reduce the incidence of DHF.

Abstract

One indicator of an individual's wellbeing is related to the nutritional status. The status is influenced by consumption patterns that can be determined by family conditions. Good nutritional status has a positive impact on learning achievement. The purpose of this study is to find whether there is a link between consumption pattern, nutritional status, and family characteristics on academic achievement. This research used an analytical survey method with a cross-sectional study design. The sample consisted of 118 children in grades 4 and 5 at SD Inpres Mokdale, Rote Ndao District, East Nusa Tenggara. Data analysis used the chi-square test with α=0,05. The results showed that there was no influence between parental education, parental work, family size and expenses on students' learning achievement.

Abstract

Maternal mortality ratio (MMR) is one of the problems that has made the focus of the Indonesian government to make policies in the health sector. The main factor causing high MMR is unsafe delivery, either not assisted by health workers or was not in health facilities. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between knowledge, attitudes, husband/family support, and the use of health service facilities in the working area of the Mangili Community Health Center. This cross-sectional study consisted of 104 respondents selected using a cluster sampling technique. The data were analyzed univariably and bivariably using the Chi-square test. The results showed that knowledge (p = 0.040), attitude (p = 0.043), and husband/family support (p = 0.027) are related to the use of health service facilities. Health workers, especially midwives, are expected to monitor and do home visits and provide intensive education to pregnant women and their families to ensure childbirth in health care facilities. On the other hand, the role of the husband/family needs to be optimized to support the mother through motivation, attention, and assistance during pregnancy examinations until delivery.
