Abstract

Introduction: Stunting is a global challenges and issues faced by societies around the world. The prevalence of stunting in the world is 148.1 million or 22.3%. The highest incidence of stunting is in Asian countries (52%) and African countries (43%). Stunting causes morbidity and mortality. Objective: to analyze the effectiveness of video and Leaflet media on mothers' knowledge, attitudes, and behavior to prevent stunting. Method: This quasi-experiment study used a non-equivalent control group design. It involved 32 mothers who have low birth weight babies (LBW) selected using purposive sampling techniques. Prior to its use, the questionnaire was subjected to tests of validity and reliability. The collected data were subsequently analyzed using statistical techniques, specifically paired t-tests and independent samples t-tests. Results: video and leaflet media effectively increased mothers' knowledge, attitudes, and behavior with a sig value of p = 0.000. The intervention group got the highest score with an average value of 15.62, 12.00, and 13.44 for knowledge, attitude, and behavior respectively. There was no significant difference in mothers’ knowledge (0.522), attitude (0.052), and behavior (0.476). Multiple Regression Analysis with a dummy on age, education and occupation did not influence mothers’ knowledge, attitude, and behavior to prevent stunting. Conclusions: Videos and leaflets effectively improve mothers' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors towards stunting prevention efforts at Puskesmas Karangmojo II. however, no significant difference was found between the two grous.

Abstract

Pain assessment is a critical aspect of delivering quality care, particularly in intensive care units (ICU). Undetected and poorly managed pain can negatively impact patient recovery. One of the commonly used pain assessment methods for non-verbal patients is the FLACC scale (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability). This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of FLACC pain assessment education through Zoom media on the assessment skills of ICU nurses at Kapuas B RSUD Dr. Saiful Anwar, East Java Province. The research employs a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design using the one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consists of 27 ICU nurses selected through total sampling. The results showed that before the education intervention, most nurses (74.1%) were deemed incompetent in pain assessment skills. After the intervention, the majority of nurses (85.2%) were assessed as competent. Statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon test indicated a significant difference in assessment skills before and after the education intervention (Z = -4.000; Asymp. Sig. = 0.000). These findings demonstrate that providing education through Zoom is effective in improving the assessment skills of nurses in using the FLACC scale to evaluate patient pain in the ICU. Continuous education for healthcare professionals, particularly ICU nurses, is crucial to enhance pain assessment skills and support optimal patient care. Online education methods, such as via Zoom, prove to be an efficient alternative in certain circumstances.

Abstract

Introduction: A Headache is a common complaint among individuals with hypertension and is often associated with elevated blood pressure. One form of complementary therapy that can be applied to alleviate this symptom is Slow Stroke Back Massage (SSBM). Objectives: This study aimed to examine the effect of Slow Stroke Back Massage on headache intensity in older adults with hypertension. Methods: This quantitative research employed a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest approach. Thirty-four hypertensive older adults participated in the study and were selected through purposive sampling. The intervention group received SSBM therapy three times per week for 10 minutes over four weeks, while the control group received only standard antihypertensive medication. Headache intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Results: The mean pre-test headache intensity score was 6.12 ± 1.62 in the intervention group and 5.82 ± 1.55 in the control group. After the intervention, the mean scores decreased to 2.71 ± 1.53 and 3.82 ± 1.55, respectively. The reduction in headache intensity was 3.41 points in the intervention group and 2.00 points in the control group. The Wilcoxon test showed a significant difference in the intervention group (p = 0.000), while the paired sample t-test confirmed significance in the control group (p = 0.000). The pre-test comparison between groups using the independent t-test indicated no significant difference (p = 0.592), whereas the post-test comparison using the Mann-Whitney U test showed a significant difference (p = 0.041). These findings suggest that SSBM significantly reduces headache intensity among hypertensive older adults. Conclusions: Slow Stroke Back Massage is an effective, safe, and non-pharmacological intervention for reducing headache intensity in hypertensive patients. Its application is recommended as a complementary therapy in elderly care.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is still one of the major health problems in Indonesia, especially in women of childbearing age (WUS). Management of hypertension through non-pharmacological methods such as exercise and spiritual approaches has proven to be effective and efficient. Brisk Walking Exercise (BWE) and Dzikir Asma'ul Husna (DAH) Meditation are promising interventions in holistic blood pressure control. Objective: To determine the efficacy of the combination of Brisk Walking Exercise and Dzikir Asma'ul Husna Meditation (BWE-DAH) on systolic and diastolic blood pressure in women of childbearing age with hypertension. Methods: The research design is quasi-experimental with pre-post test control group design. The sample amounted to 34 women of childbearing age who were divided into two groups, namely the intervention group (BWE-DAH) and the control group (BWE alone). The intervention was conducted for 2 weeks. Data were analyzed using Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests. Results: The intervention group showed a significant reduction in systolic (mean reduction 17.4 mmHg) and diastolic (mean reduction 7.7 mmHg) blood pressure (p<0.05). The control group only showed a significant reduction in diastolic pressure (mean 3.4 mmHg). Comparison between groups showed significant differences in systolic blood pressure, but not in diastolic blood pressure. Conclusion: The combination of Brisk Walking Exercise and Dzikir Asma'ul Husna Meditation is more effective in reducing systolic blood pressure than Brisk Walking Exercise alone. These results suggest that a spiritual approach can strengthen the effectiveness of physical interventions in the management of hypertension.

Abstract

Introduction: The length of a baby's birth can describe linear growth during pregnancy. If a baby is born with a short body length, it indicates a disorder during pregnancy which usually indicates a state of malnutrition suffered by the mother. Short birth length is a risk factor for stunting Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between short birth length and the incidence of stunting Methods: The type of research used was correlation analytic with a cross-sectional design. The research location was at the Bengkuring Health Center, Samarinda City, East Kalimantan Province. The number of samples was 30 people with inclusion criteria, toddlers aged 2-5 years who experienced stunting with a history of mothers giving birth at term. The sampling technique used was Purposive Sampling. Data collection used KIA books, Microtoise to measure toddler height, scales to measure toddler weight, KMS sheets to see the baby's birth length, and nutritional reports at the Health Center. Data analysis techniques used univariate and bivariate analysis using the chi-square test Results: Most of the children's birth weight is normal (2500-4000 gr) totaling 23 people (76.7%), then the birth length of the children is mostly short (<48 cm) totaling 20 people (66.7%). All toddlers in this study were classified as stunted, namely 30 people (100%). Bivariate analysis using the chi-square test with a ρ-value = 0.000 Conclusions: There is a relationship between short birth length and the incidence of stunting

Abstract

Hypertension is often referred to as the "silent killer" because it frequently shows no symptoms. In Indonesia, hypertension continues to rise year after year, with the incidence in 2018 reaching 658,201 cases (34.11%). The causes of hypertension are closely related to age and gender factors. Therefore, non-pharmacological nursing interventions are needed to address this, such as the five-finger hypnosis technique. Five-finger hypnosis involves focusing the mind on images or memories created while touching each of the five fingers in sequence, all in a relaxed state. This study aims to analyze the application of five-finger hypnosis in nursing care for hypertensive patients. The research method used is a case study with the implementation of the five-finger hypnosis nursing intervention. The respondents in this study consisted of five participants diagnosed with hypertension. The patients were taught the five-finger hypnosis technique for approximately 15 minutes. The results showed a decrease in blood pressure after the five-finger hypnosis therapy, with the five respondents (100%) showing an average systolic blood pressure of 146 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure of 91.6 mmHg, and mean arterial pressure (MAP) of 109.74 mmHg. It can be concluded that the five-finger hypnosis therapy is effective in reducing the blood pressure of hypertensive patients. Future researchers are encouraged to extend the duration of five-finger hypnosis therapy for hypertensive patients to achieve a more significant reduction in blood pressure.

Abstract

Adolescents face poor reproductive health behavior due to low literacy and access to relevant health information even though social media has the potential as a source of information. The study aims to analyze the relationship between social media access and adolescent reproductive health behavior. This research method is quantitative with a cross-sectional approach. Sampling technique with proportionate random sampling as many as 290 students of SMK Tujuh Lima 1 Purwokerto and SMK Ma'arif NU 2 Ajibarang class X and XI. The research instrument is online through google form. The social media access questionnaire has been tested for validity and reliability with a Pearson value of 0.334 and Cronbach alpha of 0.750. The results of this study showed that the majority of respondents in SMK Kabupaten Banyumas were 16 years old (49%), female (60%), and other sources for accessing reproductive health information used electronic media (22%). Most had less social media access (54%) but good reproductive health behavior (91%). There was a weak relationship between social media access and reproductive health behavior (p-value 0.001, r = 0.188). These findings suggest to further strengthen reproductive health education through social media that is interesting and relevant to adolescents

Abstract

Introduction: Chronic kidney disease, which involves lasting impairment of kidney function, can cause respiratory issues among various other systemic complications. Breathlessness is a common symptom that patients face, and if it goes unaddressed, it can worsen their overall health condition.. Objectives: The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the semi-Fowler position in boosting oxygen saturation and decreasing the respiratory rate in chronic kidney disease patients receiving treatment in the Emergency Department. Methods: This investigation adopted a descriptive case study method focusing on two individuals who experienced breathing difficulties due to chronic kidney disease. Interventions included the provision of oxygen and repositioning the patients into the semi-Fowler position for four hours of monitoring. The gathered data included oxygen saturation levels and respiratory rates measured before and after the intervention. Results: After being positioned in the semi-Fowler setup, both patients exhibited notable improvements in oxygen saturation and reductions in respiratory rates. Oxygen saturation levels rose from 83–94% to 99–100%, while the respiratory rate declined from 30–32 breaths per minute to 26–28 breaths per minute. Conclusions: Positioning patients in the semi-Fowler posture has been shown to effectively enhance respiratory function in individuals with chronic kidney disease within the emergency setting. This method can serve as a first-line non-invasive nursing intervention to promote patient comfort and help maintain the stability of their condition.
