Abstract

In Indonesia, diarrheal disease still frequently affects toddlers. In 2017, Lampulo Health Center in Banda Aceh City recorded 216 cases of diarrhea among toddlers. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between mothers' knowledge and the prevention of diarrhea in toddlers within the Lampulo Public Health Center's service area in Banda Alam Subdistrict, Banda Aceh, in 2019. This was a cross-sectional study with a target population of 216 toddlers. We selected 68 respondents using a proportional sampling technique. The research took place in the Lampulo Health Center's service area, Kuta Alam Sub-District, Banda Aceh City, from May 2 to May 22, 2019. The findings revealed several concerning statistics: 54.4% of children under five did not receive exclusive breastfeeding, 54.4% of toddlers had a poor diet (MP-ASI), 63.2% used contaminated water, 58.8% had inadequate handwashing practices, 60.3% used unsanitary diapers (Jamaban), 63.2% disposed of baby stool improperly, 64.7% of toddlers had not received measles immunization, 54.4% of mothers had insufficient knowledge, and 60.3% of mothers were unaware of how to prevent diarrhea. Statistical analysis yielded a P-value of 0.001, indicating a significant relationship between mothers' knowledge and the prevention of diarrhea in infants at the Lampulo Health Center in Banda Alam Sub-District, Banda Aceh City in 2019. We recommend that the Health Center implement the LROA (Layanan Pencegahan Diare pada Balita) program to provide diarrhea prevention services for toddlers by healthcare professionals to mothers with limited knowledge on the subject.

Abstract

Malnutrition in young individuals can have severe consequences, including complex issues such as short stature and stunting. Stunting during early childhood can negatively impact intelligence quotient (IQ), psychomotor development, motor skills, and neurosensory integration. Therefore, the role of parents in preventing stunting is crucial. The aim of this research is to investigate strategies for preventing stunting among families with newborns using the Planned Behavior Theory approach in Lampulo Village, Banda Aceh City, in 2019. This research is a descriptive correlation study with a cross-sectional approach, conducted from August 7th to 31st, 2019. The study's population consisted of all mothers at risk of stunting in Lampulo Village, Banda Aceh City, with a sample size of 74 people selected through proportional sampling. The study's results indicated that there was a significant influence of behavioral beliefs (p=0.011), normative beliefs (p=0.021), and control beliefs (p=0.020) on stunting prevention in families with young children. It is hoped that this research can provide valuable insights to healthcare providers and community health centers (posyandu) in delivering information on stunting prevention.

Abstract

Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in women worldwide. According to statistics from GLOBOCAN 2020, 1.2 million women are diagnosed with breast cancer each year, and 410,000 (35%) will die from this disease. Breast cancer is the most prevalent type of cancer among women in Indonesia, accounting for 30.8% of all female cancer cases in 2020 and causing 20.4% of female cancer-related deaths in the same year. Breast cancer screening plays a vital role in reducing deaths caused by breast cancer. Various breast cancer imaging techniques have been introduced for diagnosing breast cancer, such as Magnetic Resonance (MR) mammography, Ultrasound, Elastography, Mammography, and Automated Breast Ultrasound (ABUS). Ultrasound (US) and mammography are the two most important modalities for breast imaging. In younger women under the age of 35, ultrasound is the primary tool used to investigate breast problems. Even in the older age group, ultrasound plays a crucial role in breast imaging, particularly for the assessment of mass lesions. Breast ultrasound can be used for both screening and diagnostic purposes. Ultrasound evaluates breast tissue without the use of ionizing radiation or the injection of contrast material and is affordable, readily available, and well-tolerated by patients. The American College of Radiology (ACR) proposed the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) to standardize the characterization of sonographic breast lesions according to five criteria categories: mass shape, orientation, margin, echo pattern, and posterior features.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels and often accompanied by complications. Complications that occur in diabetes mellitus patients include blurred vision, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, kidney damage, frequent loss of pain sensation, potential gangrene formation, and amputation to prevent the spread of gangrene to other tissues. The management of diabetes mellitus can be done pharmacologically through the administration of anti-diabetes medications, insulin injections, and non-pharmacological approaches such as cinnamon tea infusion. The research objective is to determine the effect of cinnamon tea infusion on reducing blood sugar levels in diabetes mellitus patients in the Kuta Baro Primary Health Center, Aceh Besar District in 2023. This research used a quasi-experimental design with a sample size of 20 diabetes mellitus patients, selected through purposive sampling. The study was conducted from December 28, 2022, to January 5, 2023, and data analysis included univariate and bivariate analysis. The results showed that before the administration of cinnamon tea infusion, the average blood sugar level was 255.80, while after the administration of cinnamon tea infusion, the average level was 193.05, with an average decrease in blood sugar levels of 41.33. This indicates a significant difference in blood sugar levels before and after the administration of cinnamon tea infusion with a p-value of 0.001, suggesting that cinnamon tea infusion has an effect on blood sugar levels. It is expected that healthcare professionals will improve healthcare services and promote the use of cinnamon tea infusion among the community, especially diabetes mellitus patients.

Abstract

Mental retardation is a condition in which mental development is below average since birth or childhood, typically associated with overall lower intellectual development. The global prevalence of mental retardation in children is 14.8%. According to the 2018 Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) data, the prevalence of mental disorders and emotional disabilities in Indonesia was 9.8%, marking a 6% increase compared to 2013. The disability rate among children aged 5-17 in Indonesia is 3.3%, which includes cases of mental retardation. This study aims to explore the relationship between social support and coping mechanisms in families with mentally disabled children attending Special Needs Schools (Sekolah Luar Biasa) in the city of Banda Aceh in 2023. The research methodology is analytical, with a total population of 50 individuals. The sample consists of 50 parents of mentally disabled children selected through purposive sampling. The research was conducted from January 7th to 12th, 2023, and involved both univariate and bivariate analyses. The study's results indicate that out of 50 respondents, the most common type of social support is instrumental support, with 33 individuals (66%), and the majority of coping mechanisms fall into the adaptive category, with 35 individuals (70%). The p-value obtained is 0.004, suggesting a significant correlation between social support and coping mechanisms among parents of mentally disabled children. Hence, parents should keep learning about intellectual disabilities and become better at taking care of children with such challenges.

Abstract

Dexmedetomidine, an alpha 2 receptor agonist sedative drug, has recently garnered attention as a viable alternative to midazolam, a widely used benzodiazepine for sedation in adult patients. The aim of this study was to conduct a comprehensive comparison of the clinical sedative efficacy, cost-effectiveness, and safety profiles of dexmedetomidine versus midazolam, utilizing a randomized controlled trial design. The search encompassed several databases, including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Knowledge, CINAHL, the United States National Library of Medicine, and Google Scholar for Systematic Reviews, using the keywords 'dexmedetomidine,' 'midazolam,' and 'effectiveness.' The findings revealed that dexmedetomidine demonstrated a more favorable safety profile, with a lower incidence of delirium compared to midazolam. In terms of effectiveness, no significant differences were observed between the two drugs for local sedation. Notably, adult patients treated with dexmedetomidine had a shorter Intensive Care Unit (ICU) stay (7 days) compared to those receiving midazolam (10 days). Similarly, pediatric ICU treatment indicated a shorter duration with dexmedetomidine (20 hours) as opposed to midazolam (38 hours). Regarding cost-effectiveness, dexmedetomidine emerged as a cost-saving option, being approximately 10% cheaper than midazolam for adult ICU patients. These findings collectively highlight the advantages of dexmedetomidine over midazolam, encompassing superior safety, effectiveness, and cost-efficiency, thus providing valuable insights for healthcare practitioners and decision-makers.

Abstract

Children with special needs often lack good knowledge about health. In addition, ear and hearing health is often neglected by society. Ear and hearing disorders can cause disability or limitations in socializing and can also cause serious complications. The aim of this study is to provide an overview of the level of understanding and concern for ear health and hearing health. The number of samples was 37 people with an age range of 11-18 years with a cross-sectional study. The research was conducted descriptively by using a questionnaire containing 18 questions. The results of this study showed that all research subjects did not understand the correct habit of cleaning their ears. Most of the subjects did not understand the causes of ear infections. The most commonly recognized symptom of an ear infection is ear pain (54%). Almost all participants understand that ear infections can have complications in the brain. The use of earphones (40%) is not a habit for the subject. More than 50% of subjects have an understanding that hearing loss can be cured. Almost all (97%) of respondents felt the need to get more information about ear and hearing health. Understanding of ear and hearing health in children in special needs is still relatively low. The level of children in special needs 's concern for ear and hearing health is also still low. Government Special School II Banjarmasin students feel they need information related to ear and hearing health.

Abstract

Neurological complications occur in almost 60% of patients with advanced CKD and affect the nervous system at all levels, both central and peripheral. Peripheral neuropathy in CKD is usually asymptomatic until renal function is below 15%, and glomerular filtration is less than 10-12 ml/min. This study seeks to identify and characterize peripheral neuropathy in patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Hospital Palembang. This is a descriptive cross-sectional study with the research sample comprising chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis at Dr. Mohommad Hoesin Palembang Hospital. The distribution of research subjects based on the Neuropathy Symptom Score (NSS) revealed that 65.7% fell into the mild neuropathy category, based on an NSS of 3-4. According to the electrophysiology results, 82.9% of patients exhibited peripheral neuropathy, while 17.1% showed normal NCS results. Sensory motor neuropathy accounted for 51.4%, including 71.5% with axonal neuropathy, 11.4% with axonal-demyelinating lesions, and no demyelinating lesions. The high prevalence of peripheral neuropathy in CKD patients identified through electrophysiological examination (ENMG) emphasizes the importance of nerve conduction examination as a diagnostic tool for peripheral neuropathy in CKD patients. This can aid in determining the progression of peripheral neuropathy in CKD patients, allowing for appropriate management and prevention of disability complications to enhance the quality of life for these individuals.
