Abstract

Self-efficacy is important to ensure self-care to improve the health-related quality of life for hemodialysis patients. This study aimed to determine the relationship between self-efficacy and self-care and the health-related quality of life in hemodialysis patients. The research method was a quantitative correlation design with a cross-sectional approach. The instrument of the study was a questionnaire. A total sampling technique for 64 hemodialysis patients at RSUD (Regional Public Hospital) Wates Kulonprogo was used. Data analysis was conducted through the Kendall Tau test. It showed that 41 respondents (64.1%) were in the moderate category of self-efficacy, while 50 respondents (78.1%) were in the moderate category for the self-care aspect. The results of Kendall Tau analysis showed that self-efficacy was significantly associated with self-care (p= 0.004) and the health-related quality of life (p=0.041) for hemodialysis patients. It is expected that the nurse will periodically assess the biological and psychological aspects of hemodialysis patients.

Abstract

Adolescents represent one of the vulnerable groups that could suffer from mental and psychosocial health during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aims to analyze behavioral differences in adolescents who have experienced anxiety disorders during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study used a cross-sectional design on 122 adolescents in East Java during the pandemic. Data was collected through a questionnaire via Google Forms in May 2021. Data analysis in this study used the Mann–Whitney test on SPSS Statistics 26. The current study found that male respondents (80%) show a higher tendency to have anxiety disorders compared with female respondents (74%). Meanwhile, there was no difference in the help-seeking behavior based on the gender of adolescent respondents’ who experienced anxiety disorders during the COVID-19 pandemic (p=0.291). The current study also found that there is no difference in help-seeking behavior between adolescents who experience anxiety disorders or those who do not experience anxiety disorder (p=0.449). Most adolescents with anxiety disorders tend to discuss their issues with friends and family to relieve anxiety, whereas some do not seek help because they can cope with anxiety disorders on their own, they think they do not really need help, they feel that no one cares about their problems, and there is a lack of supporting health facilities in the youth environment. Teenagers in East Java are advised to consult their mental health problems with experts to find relevant solutions.

Abstract

Online motorcycle taxi drivers are at risk of experiencing exposure to air pollution, and smoking habits can exacerbate the risk of decreased lung function. The success of smoking cessation could be influenced by the experience of cessation and socioeconomic status. In this regard, the study aimed to investigate the success of smoking cessation of online motorcycle taxi drivers in Surabaya, Indonesia, using a cross-sectional design from May–December 2020. A questionnaire was used to collect data through interviews, and the data were analyzed using a chi-square test. The number of respondents was 92. Among the respondents, 43.5% failed to quit smoking, while 56.5% of them succeeded. The chi-square test results demonstrated a relationship between all experience factors and the success of smoking cessation. Additionally, a relationship between education level (p<0.001) and income level (p<0.001) with socioeconomic status was observed. Further research is needed to observe how other factors such as knowledge, motivation, and environmental factors affect smoking cessation.

Abstract

Cross-provincial lanes in Majalengka are often passed by truck drivers, and they often encounter accidents in which their help is required. The aim of this study was to determine the direct and indirect effects of truck drivers’ knowledge, motivation, and attitudes when performing first aid and the most dominant influencing factors. The research followed a cross-sectional design, and 55 respondents were chosen using total sampling. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling was used for data analysis. In relation to the practice of first aid, the direct effect of knowledge was found to be significant (p=0.001), motivation was insignificant (p=0.341), and attitude was significant (p=0.017). The indirect effects resulting from the intervention of knowledge motivation was found to be insignificant in the practice of first aid (tstatistic 0.530 < ttable 1.96), and attitude was also not significant (tstatistic 0.758 < ttable 1.96). Attitude was found to be the most dominant factor.

Abstract

Healthcare workers need Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) that can protect them, to be safer and more comfortable with handling COVID-19 patients. One important PPE is the Personal Protective Clothing (PPC), where the PPC design has to comply with regulatory requirements, in terms of application, safety, comfort, and cost. A disadvantage is that PPC can be hot and poorly ventilated. The objective of innovation research was to developed a new design of PPC with safe, cool, and comfortable personal protective clothing. PPC is made with 100% polyester coverall according to WHO standards and with ice pack design. This product was subsequently analyzed for material morphology and penetration (water-repellent). Further, relevant information was captured from 14 participants in several health professions, using questionnaires. The laboratory test results of the sample materials reportedly surpassed the specifications and were also incorporated into level-3 PPC. Based on the survey data, the personal protective clothing with ice pack was simple, comfortable, and not hot to use for healthcare workers.
