Abstract

Complaints of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) affect the parts of the body involved in carrying out a job. The complaints of MSDs that often arise in weaving workers are often related to the pain experienced in the back and neck, wrists, elbows and feet. If the muscles receive static loads repeatedly for a long time, it can cause damage to muscles, nerves, tendons, joints, cartilages and intervertebral discs. The purpose of this study was to analyze ergonomics with MSDs in weaving workers in Ternate Village, Alor District. This research was a quantitative analytic study with a cross-sectional design. The population of this study were all weavers in Ternate Village with a total of 45 people, all of whom were women. The sample consisted of 45 people selected by a total sampling technique. The results showed that tenure, work posture, workload, work time and lighting were related with MSDs in weaving workers in Ternate Village, Alor district with ρ-value < α (0.05). There was no relationship between temperature and complaints of musculoskeletal disorders with a ρ-value > α (0.05). Weavers need to improve work posture, and take the rest time to reduce workload and worktime.

Abstract

Musculoskeletal disorders are complaints related to the muscle tissue system caused by certain types of work activities and body postures. Weavers may likely experience the disorders due to the weaving-related activities such as unnatural posture, length of work, and individual characteristic factors. Musculoskeletal complaints can be the initial cause of disability. The purpose of this study was to describe the risk factors for musculoskeletal complaints in weavers in Rindi Village, East Sumba Regency. This type of research is descriptive with an observational research design. A total of 60 female weavers were selected as the research sample. The study showed that the weavers who often experienced serious complaints of MSDs were in the age group ≥ 30 years, with work period more than 4 years, and work duration reached ≥ 8 hours per day. Weavers should adjust the duration of weaving and reduce repetitive movements. Weavers are recommended to take a rest for 30-60 minutes and to work in an ergonomic posture without putting excessive loads on certain parts of the body.

Abstract

Sanitation and personal hygiene in the preparation and distribution of food are essential to food traders in order to avoid causing the contamination of microorganisms in food. One cause of food insecurity is the contamination of food with toxins produced by the fungus Aspergillus flavus. Meatballs are a popular food in the Indonesian community and are always served together with tomato sauce. Those who often pay no attention to personal hygiene, merchandise, tools, and their surroundings can potentially be contaminated by the fungus Aspergillus flavus. The study was to identify the sanitation and personal hygiene of the workers and the properties of the fungus Aspergillus flavus on the meaty tomato sauce used in the Oebobo District of Kupang City. This study aims to determine the description of the sanitation and personal hygiene of the handlers and the content of Aspergillus flavus in tomato sauce for meatball trade in Oebobo District, Kupang City. This study used a descriptive research method with a cross-sectional design. The sample of this study consisted of 10 meatball traders and 10 tomato sauce for meatball merchants in Oebobo District, Kupang City. The results of the study most of the respondents had poor hygiene, namely 5 respondents. A total of 4 respondents had good sanitation equipment and 4 respondents had poor sanitation in the premises. From the results of laboratory tests, there were 2 samples of tomato sauce containing the fungus Aspergillus flavus. The conclusion from the results of this study there were 2 positive samples of the Aspergillus flavus fungus. This is most likely because the two respondents have poor hygiene, equipment sanitation, and sanitary premises that do not meet health requirements.

Abstract

Treatment of leprosy sufferers aims to break the chain of leprosy transmission. The success of leprosy treatment depends on early detections of the patient, adherence to medication, community stigma and the role of health workers. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between medication adherence, community stigma and the role of health workers in the successful treatment of leprosy patients at the Maubesi Public Health Center, North Central Timor Regency, in 2019. This research is a qualitative research. The research informants were 13 people consisting of 5 key informants and 8 supporting informants. Data processing and analysis techniques use thematic analysis. The results of the research at Maubesi Public Health Center show that the informants comply with every rule of leprosy treatment management, both short term for PB leprosy and long term for MB leprosy. Although there is a stigma and negative treatment from the community towards people with leprosy, such as the assumption that leprosy cannot be curred and the community is afraid to shake hands with people with leprosy, it does not interfere with the patient to be afraid and retreat in undergoing leprosy treatment. This is supported by the role of health workers in the discovery and treatment of leprosy patients. Patients with good support from health workers are more obedient in taking treatment. Suggestion for the Health Center to increase education about leprosy to reduce stigma in the community.

Abstract

To achieve optimal growth in toddlers aged 0 to 24 months, the best food is breast milk (ASI), which is a source of balanced nutrition according to the composition and needs of the toddler. Breastmilk is given until toddlers are 6 months old and after 6 months, milk production begins to decline so that toddlers are introduced to complementary foods with breast milk, but breast milk is still given until toddlers are 24 months old. This study aims to determine the factors related to the pattern of complementary feeding to toddlers in the work area of ​​Oele Health Center, Rote Ndao Regency with a cross-sectional study approach. The independent variables of this study were mother's education, mother's knowledge, maternal occupation, family income, and types of complementary foods, while the dependent variable was the pattern of complementary feeding for toddlers aged 6-24 months. The sampling technique in this study was total sampling where the sample was taken was 58 people from the total population of all mothers who had toddlers aged 6-24 months who were analyzed using the chi-square test. The results of the analysis showed that there was a relationship between knowledge and the pattern of complementary feeding (p=0.011) and there was a relationship between types of complementary foods and patterns of complementary feeding and there was no relationship between maternal education (p=0.359) and maternal occupation (p=0.635) and the level of family income (p = 0.201) with the pattern of complementary feeding.
