Abstract

Background: Hypertension is the leading cause of mortality worldwide, with 90– 95% of cases classified as essential hypertension. According to data on noncommunicable or degenerative diseases in East Kalimantan, 595,689 individuals over the age of 15 were projected to suffer from hypertension in 2023. Several factors contribute to the prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia, including age, sex, family history of hypertension, educational level, occupation, place of residence, nutrition and lifestyle, and physical activity. The aim of this study was to examine the association between individual characteristics and nutritional status with the risk of hypertension among employees of the Class I Health Quarantine Office (Balai Karantina Kesehatan/BKK) in Samarinda, aged between 27 and 57 yearsMethods: This research employed a cross-sectional design involving 47 civil servants, comprising both permanent (PNS) and contract-based (PPPK) staff. Blood pressure and nutritional status (body mass index) data were obtained through direct measurements conducted in March 2025 at the BKK Class I Samarinda Office.The findings of this study indicate a significant association between individual characteristics specifically age and nutritional status and the incidence of hypertension among the employees.

Abstract

Background: Psychotic disorders are one of the serious mental health problems, particularly among pregnant women. Various factors, both biological and psychosocial, are suspected to play a role in influencing the occurrence of psychotic disorders during pregnancy. However, to date, evidence regarding the most influential factors remains inconsistent. This study aims to analyze the factors affecting psychotic disorders in pregnant women..Method: The study used a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 72 pregnant women who attended antenatal care at the Rappokalling Health Center in Makassar City were selected as respondents. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using the chi-square test to assess the relationship between independent variables and psychotic disorders..Result: The analysis showed no significant relationship between age (P-value = 0.7), education (P-value = 0.8), parity (P-value = 0.1), gestational age (P-value = 0.3), employment status (P-value = 0.1), family income (P-value = 0.2), knowledge (Pvalue = 0.08), and social support (P-value = 0.1) with psychotic disorders in pregnant womenConclusion: This study concludes that factors such as age, education, parity, gestational age, employment status, family income, knowledge, and social support do not have a significant relationship with psychotic disorders in pregnant women in the population studied.

Abstract

Background: Adolescent reproductive health is a critical issue that significantly influences the quality of life and future development of young people. The high incidence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unintended pregnancies among teenagers underscores the urgent need for effective educational interventions. Peer educator training is considered a promising approach to improve adolescents' understanding and management of their reproductive health. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of peer educator training in enhancing adolescents’ knowledge and skills related to reproductive health. It also seeks to compare outcomes between the experimental and control groups. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving two groups: an experimental group that received peer educator training and a control group that did not receive any intervention. Statistical analysis was conducted using independent and paired t-tests to examine significant differences within and between the groups. he analysis revealed a statistically significant improvement in knowledge within the experimental group, with a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a substantial difference before and after the training. Furthermore, the post-intervention comparison between the experimental and control groups also showed a significant difference in knowledge levels (p = 0.000), supporting the effectiveness of the training intervention conducted at SMA 11 Samarinda.Peer educator training is effective in increasing adolescents' knowledge regarding reproductive health. This intervention can serve as a valuable model for youth health education programs. Sustained efforts are recommended to broaden its implementation and maximize its impact on adolescent health outcomes

Abstract

Background:Emesis gravidarum, commonly characterized by nausea and occasional vomiting, affects many women during the first trimester of pregnancy. Although generally self-limiting, it can significantly reduce quality of life and daily functioning. Objective:This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of peppermint aromatherapy and Pericardium 6 (P6) acupressure in alleviating symptoms of emesis gravidarum in first-trimester pregnant women. Methods:A qualitative case study approach was employed. Two pregnant women in their first trimester experiencing emesis gravidarum were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and direct observation. The severity of nausea and vomiting was measured using the Pregnancy-Unique Quantification of Emesis (PUQE) score before and after the interventions. Results:Peppermint aromatherapy reduced PUQE scores from 9 (moderate) to 6 (mild), while Pericardium 6 acupressure reduced PUQE scores from 10 (moderate) to 3 (mild). This indicates that both interventions were effective in reducing nausea and vomiting, with Pericardium 6 acupressure showing greater effectiveness. Conclusion:Both peppermint aromatherapy and Pericardium 6 acupressure are effective non-pharmacological methods for reducing emesis gravidarum in the first trimester. Pericardium 6 acupressure demonstrated greater effectiveness and may be recommended as a complementary therapy for managing early pregnancy-related nausea and vomiting

Abstract

Background: The Prolanis Program at the Suak Ribee Health Center includes monthly health education, biannual supporting examinations, pharmaceutical services (DRR), group exercise sessions, and home visit activities. This study aimed to identify the determinants influencing the utilization of the BPJS Health Prolanis program at the Suak Ribee Health Center.Method: The research was conducted from January 7 to February 7, 2025, involving 66 randomly selected participants using a quantitative cross-sectional design. Data were analyzed through univariate and bivariate analyses using the chi-square test, and multivariate analysis using logistic regression..Result: The results revealed that age (p = 0.048), gender (p = 0.003, OR = 6.167), knowledge (p = 0.042, OR = 3.630), the role of health workers (p = 0.015, OR = 4.750), and family support (p = 0.045, OR = 3.600) were significantly associated with the utilization of Prolanis. Education level, however, showed no significant effect (p = 0.374, OR = 1.875). Gender emerged as the most dominant factor (p = 0.002, OR = 8.930).Conclusion: n conclusion, age, gender, knowledge, the role of health workers, and family support influence the utilization of the Prolanis program, whereas education does not. It is recommended that the Suak Ribee Health Center increase male participation in Prolanis, for example by organizing exercise sessions on weekends or in the afternoon, and by conducting home visits as a separate program to better target less active participants

Abstract

Background:Asthma is a chronic respiratory disorder marked by airway inflammation, narrowing, edema, and excessive mucus production, resulting in impaired ventilation and ineffective airway clearance. Effective interventions are essential to alleviate symptoms and optimize respiratory function. Nebulizer therapy and pursed-lip breathing are widely employed to manage asthma symptoms; however, the synergistic impact of these two modalities remains underexplored.Methods:This case study involved a patient with a clinical diagnosis of asthma presenting with acute shortness of breath. The intervention protocol consisted of 10 minutes of nebulizer therapy followed by 5 minutes of pursed-lip breathing. Clinical parameters oxygen saturation (SpO?), respiratory rate, heart rate, sputum consistency, adventitious breath sounds, and dyspnea scale were measured before and after the intervention.Results and Discussion: Post-intervention assessment revealed notable clinical improvements. Oxygen saturation increased from 89% to 96%, respiratory rate declined from 37 to 24 breaths per minute, and heart rate decreased from 127 to 98 beats per minute. Additionally, sputum consistency became thinner, adventitious sounds such as wheezing and rhonchi subsided, and the dyspnea scale improved from level 2 (moderate) to level 0 (normal). These findings suggest that the combined application of nebulizer therapy and pursed-lip breathing enhances airway patency, reduces respiratory distress, and improves ventilation. Conclusion: The combined use of nebulizer therapy and pursed-lip breathing technique proved effective in improving airway clearance and respiratory function in an asthma patient, indicating potential for broader clinical application in acute asthma care.

Abstract

Background: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a significant public health threat in South Aceh, Indonesia. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the DHF control program at Lhok Bengkuang Health Center using input, process, output, outcome indicators. A descriptive qualitative study was conducted from December 2024 to January 2025. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with officers from the South Aceh Health Office, the health center chief, program coordinators, and affected community members. Thematic analysis followed Miles and Huberman’s approach. Triangulation and member checking ensured data validity. DHF cases declined from 22 in 2023 to 7 in 2024. Control activities included source reduction (PSN), larviciding, fogging, health education, epidemiological investigations, and vector surveys. However, the Larvae Free Index (ABJ) remained below the national target of 95%. This indicates partial effectiveness, constrained by limited entomology staff and inadequate personal protective equipment for fogging. Strengthening resources and aligning local implementation with national standards are essential to sustain progress. The DHF control program effectively reduced cases but requires reinforced human resources, adequate equipment, and improved community engagement to meet national targets

Abstract

Chronic kidney disease is a progressive and irreversible condition that leads to a decline in kidney function, requiring renal replacement therapy. The intensive and prolonged treatment process often results in fatigue, which is one of the most common problems in CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis. Elevated urea levels affect erythropoietin production, resulting in decreased red blood cell count or anemia (low hemoglobin levels), leading to energy and protein loss, decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, and reduced creatinine production—contributing to decreased skeletal energy production, fatigue, and weakness. Despite the frequent pharmacological interventions, fatigue management is often inadequate due to lack of energy, limiting patients' ability to perform therapeutic activities. One of the easiest and most efficient complementary therapies is lavender aromatherapy, which does not interfere with pharmacological treatments. However, it remains underutilized. In 2022, 143 CKD patients in one hospital presented with fatigue complaints, often leading to repeated care episodes. This case study aims to analyze the application of lavender aromatherapy in reducing fatigue levels in CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis.Methods: This study used a case study design with a pre-post test approach involving 3 patients selected through simple random sampling based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected through direct observation using the FACIT-Fatigue Scale.Results: The results showed a reduction in fatigue levels in all three patients. Initially, they exhibited severe fatigue. After three days of lavender aromatherapy, fatigue levels decreased to mild. Conclusion: The application of lavender aromatherapy led to a decrease in fatigue levels, suggesting that it can be an effective supportive intervention.
