Abstract

Adolescence is a transition period that is susceptible to various emotional and psychological changes, so it requires the support of a healthy family environment. One of the factors that affect adolescent mental health is parental parenting. Toxic parenting is a form of negative parenting characterized by excessive control, criticism, and a lack of emotional support, which can affect the psychological well-being of adolescents. This study aims to find out the relationship between toxic parenting and mental health in adolescents. The research instruments were in the form of a toxic parenting questionnaire and a Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). The results showed that most adolescents experienced a moderate level of toxic parenting (65.9%), while a weak level was (34.1%). Adolescent mental health conditions are mostly in the borderline (48.8%) category, followed by the abnormal (36.6%) and normal (14.6%) categories. The results of the Chi-square test showed a p-value = 0.002 (< 0.05), which indicates that there is a significant relationship between toxic parenting and adolescent mental health. In conclusion, the higher the level of toxic parenting, the greater the risk of mental health disorders. It is recommended that parents implement positive parenting that is oriented towards emotional support and open communication to support adolescent mental health.

Abstract

Obesity is a global problem that affects every country. In the same year, about 2.5 billion adults were overweight, and 890 million of them were living with obesity. Since 1990, the prevalence of obesity has more than tripled and overweight has increased by more than 1.5 times. The type of research used in this study is a type of quantitative research with a quasi-experimental design, using a pretest-postest approach with control group design, to determine the difference in knowledge of diabetes mellitus risk in the group that was given animated video education and the group that was given education using the usual lecture method. The results of the pretest showed that the level of knowledge of respondents in the experimental group was only 8 respondents (47.1%), the category was less than 5 respondents (29.4), the good category was 4 respondents (23.5%) in the control group of the category was 7 respondents (41.2%), the good and poor categories were 5 respondents each (29.4%). The results of the posttest showed that all respondents in the experimental group and the control group had a level of knowledge in the good category, as many as 17 respondents (100%) each. There is an effect of education through animated videos on knowledge of the risk of diabetes mellitus in obese adolescents at SMK Negeri 3 Gorontalo City, which is proven by the results of the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test with a p-value = 0.000 (p < 0.05).

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disease that is progressive and has a serious impact on the body's metabolic system. The PLISSIT model stands for four levels of intervention, namely Permission, Limited Information, Specific Suggestions, and Intensive Therapy. This study aims to determine the effect of sexual education with the PLISSIT method in reducing sexual function disorders in type 2 DM patients at the Limboto Health Center. The research method is using a quasi-experimental approach. The design used is a one group pretest-posttest design. The sample was taken using a non-probability sampling technique with a purposive sampling technique from a total population of 398 respondents to 44 respondents. The research instrument using Sexual Education with the PLISSIT Method was carried out according to SOP procedures and used IIEF and FSFI Questionnaires to measure the level of sexual disorders in men and women. The results showed that there was a statistically significant difference between the Pre FSFI and Post FSFI scores with a Z value of -5.061 and a significance value (p-value) of 0.000. Because the p value < 0.05, the Pre IIEF and Post IIEF p values are .000, where p < ? (0.05) is obtained, so it is concluded that H1 is accepted, meaning that there is an Effect of Sexual Education with the PLISSIT Method on Sexual Function Disorders in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients at Limboto Health Center. This research is expected to integrate sexual education of the PLISSIT method in the routine services of type 2 DM patients, especially in health education sessions and chronic disease clinics.

Abstract

Constipation is an elimination problem that often occurs in stroke patients due to neurological disorders, immobilization, and a low-fiber diet. This condition can decrease comfort, hinder recovery, and trigger complications such as fecal impaction. Warm abdominal compresses are a nonpharmacological intervention that can improve intestinal motility. Objective: To determine the effect of abdominal compresses on the rate of constipation in stroke patients. Methods: This study used a pre-experimental design with a one group pretest-posttest design approach. The sample consisted of 15 stroke patients who were selected using accidental sampling techniques in the Neuro Room of Prof. Dr. Aloei Saboe Gorontalo Hospital. The intervention was in the form of abdominal compresses with Warm Water Zak at 40–50°C for 20 minutes every day for three days. The level of constipation was measured using the Constipation Assessment Scale (CAS). The normality test used the Shapiro-Wilk test and the statistical analysis used the Wilcoxon test. Results: After a warm compress intervention in the abdomen for 3 days, the category of non-constipation increased from 0 respondents (0%) to 2 respondents (11.8%), mild constipation of 2 respondents (11.8%) increased to 11 respondents (64.7%), moderate constipation of 10 respondents (58.8%) decreased to 2 respondents (17.6%), and severe constipation of 4 respondents (29.4%) decreased to 2 respondents (5.9%). The Wilcoxon test showed a value of p = 0.000 (p< 0.05), indicating a significant effect of abdominal compression on the reduction of constipation. Conclusion: Abdominal compresses are effective in lowering the rate of constipation in stroke patients. This intervention is safe, easy to implement, and can be recommended as a nonpharmacological nursing measure to improve elimination function in stroke patients.

Abstract

The development of information technology encourages hospitals to innovate services, one of which is through the implementation of the Self-Medication List Platform (ADABATMAN) in outpatient services. This system is expected to speed up the registration process, reduce queues, and increase patient satisfaction. However, in its implementation, technical obstacles and differences in patients' abilities in using technology are still found, so it is necessary to evaluate in terms of patient satisfaction. This study aims to find out the picture of patient satisfaction in the use of ADABATMAN in the Outpatient Installation of Toto Kabila Hospital based on the dimensions of reliability, assurance, tangibles, empathy, and responsiveness. Research method This study uses a quantitative method with a descriptive design. The research sample amounted to 84 respondents who were selected using accidental sampling techniques. Data were collected using a questionnaire based on the SERVQUAL (RATER) model and analyzed univariately to see the distribution of patient satisfaction levels. The results showed that most patients were satisfied with the use of ADABATMAN. In the reliability and responsiveness dimensions, the majority of respondents expressed satisfaction because the system was considered quite fast and helped the registration process. The assurance dimension shows a good level of satisfaction because patients feel safe and trust in the services provided. The tangibles dimension obtained the highest level of satisfaction, demonstrated by a positive assessment of the physical condition of the machine, facilities, and service environment. Meanwhile, in the empathy dimension, although most respondents were satisfied with the attitude and attention of the officers, there were still respondents who stated that they were quite satisfied, especially in elderly patients who needed more assistance when using the system. In conclusion, in general, the level of patient satisfaction with the use of ADABATMAN in the Outpatient Installation of Toto Kabila Hospital is in the satisfied category. Nevertheless, hospitals still need to improve assistance for elderly patients and carry out regular system maintenance so that the quality of technology-based services can be more optimal.

Abstract

Dug well water is still widely used by the community as a source of clean water, but the quality often does not meet turbidity requirements. High turbidity levels can reduce water quality and increase health risks, so effective, safe, and environmentally friendly water treatment efforts are needed by utilizing natural coagulants. The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of the combination of moringa seeds and leaves (Moringa oleifera) as a natural coagulant in reducing the turbidity level of dug well water. The type of experimental research with a pre-test-post test research design uses a combination dose of moringa seeds and leaves, namely 10 mg, 20 mg and 30 mg. The water sampling technique is Purposive sampling. Data analysis used the One-Way Anova test and the LSD (Least Significant Difference) follow-up test. The results of the study showed that the turbidity value of dug well water in pre-test conditions was 15.5 NTU. The reduction in cloudiness after treatment with a dose of 10 mg had an average of 3.77 NTU (75.67%), the 20 mg dose of 2.53 NTU (83.67%), and the 30 mg dose of 3.17 NTU (79.54%). The Anova One-Way test showed a significant difference in effectiveness between doses of coagulants (p-value = 0.038 < 0.05). Follow-up LSD tests showed a significant difference between the 10 mg and 20 mg doses (p-value = 0.014 < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between the 10 mg and 30 mg doses (p-value = 0.146 > 0.05), as well as between the 20 mg and 30 mg doses (p-value = 0.128 > 0.05). It is recommended for subsequent researchers to test variations in stirring speed as well as other water quality parameters.
