Abstract

Introduction Anxiety in pregnant women is a common psychological condition where mothers feel anxious, restless, or worried about pregnancy, childbirth, or their future as a mother. This anxiety can be caused by various factors, including hormonal changes, physical changes that occur during pregnancy, uncertainty about the birthing process, feelings of not being ready to become parents, and concerns about the health of the baby and oneself. The purpose of this study is to examine the connection between primigravida pregnant women's anxiety levels and their amount of support from their families when it comes to giving birth. Method :This research design method uses a cross-sectional design. The population in this study was 75 third-trimester primigravida pregnant women. The total sample was 56 respondents using the purposive sampling technique. The sample was determined based on inclusion criteria, namely pregnant women who were willing to be respondents and pregnant women in the third trimester without complications. The analysis test used uses Spearman rho correlation. Result Analysis test results using Spearman rho correlation show a correlation value (r) = 0.716 with a p value of 0.000, where p < α (α = 0.05). This means that H1 is accepted and H0 is rejected. The results of this study can be concluded that family support is correlated with the level of anxiety of primigravida pregnant women. Based on this research, it is recommended that families can provide family support to primigravida pregnant women before delivery. Conclusion : the majority of primigravida pregnant women receive high family support and have mild levels of anxiety.

Abstract

Background: Psychological changes in pregnant women can be caused by hormonal imbalances. Imbalance can give rise to an anxiety response caused by conditions within oneself and the environment. Excessive anxiety can stimulate uterine contractions which can lead to pathological risks in the pregnancy. The aim of this research is to determine the anxiety and psychological domains of high-risk pregnant women. Method: The research design was descriptive research with a sample size of 30 pregnant women who had a history of high risk in Batu Kute village, Narmada subdistrict using cluster sampling technique. The instrument used was the PASS (perinatal anxiety screening scale) questionnaire. Result: The research results obtained were that most pregnant women experienced anxiety on a mild - moderate scale with a percentage of 70% experienced by mothers in the first and third trimesters of pregnancy. is in the domain category of excessive worry and specific fear as much as 57% and anxiety and active adjustment as much as 23.3%. The level of anxiety of pregnant women in the first trimester is due to the adaptation process to changes in a woman and will increasingly increase in the third trimester of pregnancy leading up to delivery. Conclusion: Anxiety conditions with or without previous symptoms will increase in high-risk third trimester mothers because they feel anxious about the condition of themselves and their fetus. If not treated, it will pose a risk to the mother, fetus and the birth process that will occur.

Abstract

Background: Preeclampsia is responsible for maternal health globally due to its high morbidity and maternal mortality rates, especially in low-income countries such as Indonesia. Primary care providers, including general practitioners, midwives, and nurses, have a crucial role to play in the early assessment of preeclampsia screening. It was noted that factors affecting mortality were the lack of preparedness of officers in managing and responding to pregnancy emergencies, delayed recognition of worsening clinical signs of preeclampsia, as well as inadequate assessment and treatment for preeclampsia. This study aims to analyze the driving factors that influence health care provider in conducting preeclampsia screening in Gresik District. Methods: This research was an observational analytical study with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study consisted of all doctors and midwives at the primary health facilities in the Gresik Regency area. The sample was taken from 159 respondents who were service providers in 20 primary health facilities in Gresik using simple random sampling. The variables in this study were the knowledge and attitudes of healthcare workers toward implementing preeclampsia screening. Data collection in this study used an online questionnaire conducted after issuing the Ethical Approval Letter until October 2023, which was then analyzed using a chi-square test with a significance level of 0.05.  Results: Only 27% of respondents demonstrated a good level of knowledge about preeclampsia, which affected the effectiveness of preeclampsia screening (p-value 0.04). A total of 86.2% of respondents showed a high level of attitude toward preeclampsia screening. However, this study found no significant relationship between healthcare workers' attitudes and preeclampsia screening (p-value 0.171). Conclusion: There is a significant link between the knowledge of the healthcare provider and the optimization of preeclampsia screening so new methods of training are needed that are assessed as effective and accompanied by rigorous monitoring and evaluation to enhance healthcare provider knowledge, especially concerning preeclampsia screening.

Abstract

Background : The importance of reproductive health awareness for women, as women are vulnerable to infectious diseases. One of the reproductive health problems is leukorrhea, which is the discharge of genital fluid that is not blood but is often ignored. In fact, leukorrhea can be fatal if left untreated. According to WHO, around 90% of Indonesian women are at risk of developing leukorrhea. This is due to the tropical climate in Indonesia, which supports the growth of fungi, one of the causes of leukorrhea. Method: This study used an observational analytic approach with a cross-sectional research design. The sample size was 131 female students, who were selected by total sampling. The independent variables in this study were age, BMI, stress level, vulva hygiene knowledge, and vulva hygiene behavior. Data analysis was performed using Chi-square, Mann-Whitney, and logistic regression tests Result: The results showed that the most common age was 20 years (23.7%), 76 people (58%) had a normal BMI, and 61 people (46.6%) had been living in the boarding school for 1 year. Most of the female students experienced moderate stress (46 people, 35.11%), 114 (87.02%) had good vulva hygiene behavior, 94 (71.75%) had good vulva hygiene knowledge, and 109 (83.20%) had leukorrhea. The Mann-Whitney test results showed a relationship between the incidence of leukorrhea and age (p = 0.001), the Chi-square test results showed a relationship between the incidence of leukorrhea and stress level (p = <0.001), BMI (p = 0.344), vulva hygiene knowledge (p = 0.088), and vulva hygiene behavior (p = 1.000). Conclusion: Age and stress level were associated with the incidence of leukorrhea, and stress level was the most associated factor with the incidence of leukorrhea in female students at the Pondok Pesantren Mahasiswa Khoirul Huda Surabaya, Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: Data on contraceptive use are needed to evaluate contraceptive use and plan for future needs. Changes in contraceptive method use and the factors that influence contraceptive method use are serious matters that need to be considered. Methods: This study used secondary data from the Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) in 2007, 2012, and 2017. The research design used was cross-sectional. Researchers used descriptive analysis to determine the characteristics of married women who use contraception. Inferential analysis was used to see the relationship between sociodemographic factors and the use of contraceptive method types. Results: The results of the analysis showed that the most widely used type of contraception from 2007-2017 was injectable contraception. Most married women who used contraceptives were in the age group of 30-39 years, had only 1-2 children, had a high school education and below, and worked as housewives. Women living in rural and urban areas have equal opportunities to obtain contraceptive services. Even women with the lowest wealth index still have access to contraceptives. The chi-square test results of age, education, occupation, residence, and wealth index variables with p = 0.000 (p < 0.005) from 2007-2017, as well as the variable number of children with p = 0.000 (p < 0.005) in 2007, p = 0.002 (p < 0.005) in 2012 and p = 0.000 (p < 0.005) in 2017. Conclusion: This study found a positive association between contraceptive method use and the variables of age, education, occupation, number of children, place of residence, and wealth index.
