Abstract

Effective communication within the hospital environment can significantly improve practice safety in health services, especially during the handover process. Handover is a transfer of information during the shift transition. Numerous studies have presented evidence of the Situation, Background, Assessment, and Recommendation (SBAR) format in enhancing effective communication during handovers. Here, we aimed to explore SBAR communication during handovers in a public hospital in Bali. This quantitative descriptive study applied a cross-sectional approach and employed 20 participants who were selected using a total sampling technique. A questionnaire was enrolled to collect participants’ demography characteristics and the handover process. The majority of participants were female (90%), with a mean age of 28 years, a working duration <3 years (55%), and registered nurses (45%). SBAR format was effectively delivered during the handovers (95%), especially among female participants (85%), aged 29 years old (20%), participants with less than <3 years of working experience (55%), and registered nurses (40%). SBAR format assists a clear, complete, well-directed, and concise organization of clinical information during the handover process. According to the model care, we only found one team member (5%) with ineffective SBAR communication. Ninety-five percent of the participants had performed proper SBAR handovers. We assumed that model of care may associate with SBAR handovers skill.

The high morbidity and mortality rate of newborns throughout the world is caused by infection. Southeast Asia estimated that there were 220,017 infant deaths due to unclean umbilical cord care. Umbilical cord care is very important, especially for mothers giving birth because mothers are more aware of the baby's development every day. This study aimed to determine the difference between the incidence of omphalitis between dry gauze closed umbilical cord care and open umbilical cord care in Midwife S. L. Clinic and Teratai Clinic, East Jakarta in 2020. This research is quantitative research with an analytical survey method with a cross-sectional approach. The sample in this study was 67 people. The sampling technique is total sampling. The research instrument consisted of secondary data and observation sheets. Chi-square test results there were differences in the incidence of infection between the treatment of dry gauze closed umbilical cord with open umbilical cord care where (ρ=0.000). There was a difference between the occurrence of infection between the treatment of the cord that is closed with dry gauze and open. Post-partum women need to increase their knowledge about umbilical cord care both with the open umbilical cord care method so that they can apply the open umbilical cord care method and reduce the incidence of omphalitis in infants.

Abstract

In the past decade, women were found working in tobacco factories. Stress that occurs in the workplace results from emotional and physical reactions due to the failure of individuals to adapt to a work environment where there is a mismatch between expectations and reality. This study aimed to identify the psychological distress among female tobacco workers. The research design used in this research is descriptive research. The of respondents required in this study is 91 respondents. Sampling was done by using a random sampling method. The data collection tool used in this study was the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS) questionnaire. The results showed that most of the respondents never experienced stress. Some respondents often experience stress with symptoms of overreaction to a situation, and some respondents experience stress all the time with symptoms of not feeling positive and experiencing shaking or tremors in their hands. Respondents who often experience anxiety feel symptoms of panic and worthlessness, and respondents who experience severe anxiety at any time feel symptoms of changes in heart rate even though they do not do physical activity (feel their heart rate increases). Lack of training and low education cause job stress for workers. Lack of placement scenarios not by the workers' abilities will make them less confident and experience difficulties dealing with situations that can cause anxiety. Women working in tobacco factories must handle the stress for their mental and physical health.

Abstract

Based on Riskesdas data in 2018, it was reported that the incidence of anemia in pregnant women in Indonesia nationally was 48.9%. The prevalence of anemia is still high. This is also influenced by the pattern of consumption of iron tablets which is not supported by the fulfillment of vitamin C which is very helpful in the process of iron absorption. The objective: to determine the effectiveness of giving Fe tablets with tomato juice to increase hemoglobin levels in third trimester pregnant women with anemia. This quasi-experimental method uses a two-group pre-test-post-test design. The sample in this study amounted to 30 respondents consisting of 15 respondents each of the intervention group with purposive sampling technique. Data were analyzed using Paired T-test and Independent T-test. Univariate results showed that the average hemoglobin level of pregnant women in the intervention group pretest was 9.94, and posttest was 10.80 with a p value of 0.000. The average hemoglobin level of pregnant women in the pretest control group was 9.99 and the posttest was 10.36 with a p value of 0.000. Bivariate results with independent t-test obtained p value 0.008. There are differences in the effectiveness of giving Fe tablets with Tomato Juice on Hemoglobin Levels in Third Trimester Pregnant Women with Anemia. It is expected to consume tomato juice or similar foods as an alternative to vitamin C combined with Fe tablets in an effort to increase hemoglobin levels in pregnant women.

Abstract

The development of PUs consequently results in significant physical, financial, and emotional burdens on the affected patients and their relatives including healthcare providers. This study aimed to assess knowledge of pressure ulcer risk assessment (PURA) and prevention strategies among nurses at University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, Nigeria. A cross-sectional descriptive design among 264 nurses was selected through a simple random sampling technique using a structured pre-tested questionnaire for data collection. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The level of significance is set at a p-value <0.05. The mean age of participants was 40.59 ± 9.88 years. Findings revealed that an average of 51.1% of respondents had adequate knowledge of PURA. However, adequate knowledge of pressure ulcer prevention strategies was recorded among just a little above average 67.8%. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) showed no significant relationship between respondents’ level of education and their knowledge of pressure ulcer risk assessment as well as their knowledge of pressure ulcer prevention strategies (p>0.05). Knowledge of pressure ulcer and prevention strategies was inadequate. Nurses need regular training programs to improve their knowledge and skills in PURA and the prevention of pressure ulcers among at-risk patients according to international best practices in order to bridge the previously identified gaps.

Abstract

This study was conducted to identify and compare areas perceived to be high-touch surfaces in patient hospital rooms by ward nurses and inpatients to prioritize cleaning and disinfection of these areas and also to improve hospital environment management. The participants were 122 nurses who worked in general hospital wards and 56 patients hospitalized at a 299-bed general hospital in Seoul. We selected 38 items from the high-touch surfaces identified by patients in previous studies and guidelines and classified them into 4 categories. For each item, the contact frequency was investigated with a self-report questionnaire on a graphic rating scale that contained 11 points. Data were collected from April 1, 2020, to April 30, 2020. The average recognition score of the frequency of high-touch surfaces was significantly higher in nurses than in patients. (5.96 ± 1.47 vs. 2.35 ± 1.98, p<0.001). The top seven high-touch surfaces included intravenous poles, bedrails, bed height remote controls, bedside tables, restroom door handles, bedside personal locks, and restroom seats, and the ranking of these surfaces was different between nurses and patients. While nurses and patients showed a consensus when identifying major high-touch surfaces, there was a big difference in their perception of these areas’ touch frequency. This study will help to understand and establish categories and criteria for high-touch surfaces in the future.
