Abstract

Background Burnout among healthcare workers, especially nurses, is a growing concern globally, driven by emotional strain, limited autonomy, and organizational challenges. While quantitative studies have identified burnout prevalence, little is known about how nurses in Oman experience and interpret the causes of burnout in their work environments. Objective This study aimed to explore the contributing factors to burnout among nurses in public healthcare facilities in Oman and to gain a deeper understanding of their lived experiences within the healthcare system. Methods A qualitative descriptive design was employed between October 2024 and February 2025. Ten nurses were purposively selected from public hospitals and primary healthcare centers across different regions in Oman. Data were collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. Lincoln and Guba’s criteria were applied to ensure trustworthiness. Results Two main themes emerged: (1) emotional and physical burden of undervaluation and its impact on professional satisfaction, and (2) constraints on autonomy and opportunities for empowerment. Nurses reported experiences of fatigue, lack of recognition, restricted decision-making power, inequitable access to training, and marginalization in interdisciplinary settings. Conclusion Burnout among nurses in Oman is shaped by emotional exhaustion, limited autonomy, and systemic inequities. These findings underscore the need for institutional reforms that promote professional recognition, expand development opportunities, and foster supportive workplace cultures. Addressing these challenges is crucial for sustaining the nursing workforce and enhancing care quality.

Abstract

Background Anemia among adolescent girls is a significant public health issue in Indonesia, including in Muara Enim District, with a steadily increasing prevalence. The causes of anemia are multifactorial, including knowledge, nutritional status, adherence to iron (Fe) tablet consumption, and economic status. Objective This study aims to identify the factors associated with the incidence of anemia among adolescent girls in the working area of Muara Enim Health Center, Muara Enim District, in 2025. Methods This research employed a quantitative cross-sectional design. A total of 95 respondents were purposively selected from the population of adolescent girls in the Muara Enim Public Health Center area in 2024. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and medical records, and analyzed using univariate, bivariate (chi-square test), and multivariate (multiple logistic regression) methods. Results Most respondents experienced anemia (53.7%), had good knowledge (57.9%), normal nutritional status (97.0%), were non-adherent to Fe tablet consumption (53.7%), and came from families with income below the regional minimum wage (72.6%). Bivariate analysis showed that adherence to Fe tablet consumption (p = 0.00) and economic status (p = 0.00) were significantly associated with anemia incidence, while knowledge (p = 0.99) and nutritional status (p = 0.21) were not. Multivariate analysis identified economic status as the most dominant factor (p = 0.002; OR = 0.20), indicating that adolescent girls from families earning ≥ regional minimum wage had an 80% lower risk of anemia. Conclusion Adherence to Fe tablet consumption and economic status are key factors in preventing anemia among adolescent girls, with economic status being the most influential. Integrated interventions should focus on strengthening Fe supplementation adherence and empowering families economically to reduce anemia prevalence in this population

Abstract

Background Hypertension is one of the leading non-communicable diseases with increasing prevalence, including among the productive age group. Several risk factors such as age, occupation, body weight, family history, smoking habits, physical activity, and fruit and vegetable consumption are suspected to influence the incidence of hypertension. Objective This study aimed to analyze the factors affecting the incidence of hypertension among productive age individuals in the working area of Muara Beliti Public Health Center in 2025. Methods This was a quantitative study using a cross-sectional approach. A total of 93 respondents aged 16–64 years were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and medical records, then analyzed using Chi-Square and multivariate logistic regression tests. Results The results showed significant relationships between age (p=0.031), body weight (p=0.001), smoking habits (p=0.030), physical activity (p=0.016), and fruit and vegetable consumption (p=0.011) with the incidence of hypertension. No significant relationship was found between occupation and family history with hypertension. Multivariate analysis revealed that physical activity was the most dominant factor (p=0.002; OR=4.80; 95% CI=1.80–12.80). Conclusion Physical activity is the most dominant factor influencing the incidence of hypertension among the productive age population.Health interventions should prioritize increasing physical activity, promoting healthy eating habits, and controlling other risk factors to reduce the incidence of hypertension among productive age individuals.

Abstract

Background The use of contraceptive implants as a long-acting contraceptive method remains low in Indonesia, including in the working area of the Muara Enim District Extension Center. Despite its high effectiveness in preventing pregnancy, several factors may influence implant adoption among women of reproductive age, such as age, knowledge, attitude, socioeconomic status, parity, and husband’s support. Objective This study aimed to identify the factors associated with the use of contraceptive implants among reproductive-age couples in the Muara Enim District Extension Center in 2025. Methods This study applied a quantitative cross-sectional design involving 93 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Inclusion criteria were women of reproductive age residing in the study area and willing to participate, while exclusion criteria included serious illness and illiteracy. Data collection was conducted from May 2 to 17, 2025, using a validated structured questionnaire supported by medical record checks. Variables measured included age, knowledge, attitude, socioeconomic status, parity, and husband’s support, with implant use as the dependent variable. Data analysis was performed in three stages: univariate to describe frequencies, bivariate using Chi-square tests to assess associations (p < 0.05), and multivariate using logistic regression to determine dominant factors. Ethical clearance was obtained, and informed consent, anonymity, and confidentiality were ensured.. Results ge (p=0.02), attitude (p=0.005), and socioeconomic status (p=0.02) were significantly associated with implant use, while knowledge (p=1.00), parity (p=0.90), and husband’s support (p=0.18) were not. Logistic regression confirmed attitude as the most dominant predictor (p=0.003; OR=0.26). Conclusion Age, attitude, and socioeconomic status significantly influence implant use, with attitude being the strongest determinant. Health promotion should focus on shaping positive attitudes through couple-based counseling and interpersonal education, especially for younger women and low-income groups.

Abstract

Background Foot massage is increasingly used as a complementary therapy in diabetes care, particularly for patients suffering from diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Despite its widespread use, the concept remains theoretically underdeveloped, inconsistently defined, and variably applied in nursing practice. Objective This study aimed to clarify the concept of foot massage among diabetes patients through a structured concept analysis using Walker and Avant’s eight-step method. Methods A concept analysis was conducted following the Walker and Avant framework. Literature was reviewed from databases including PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, and Google Scholar using keywords related to foot massage, diabetes, and non-pharmacological interventions. The defining attributes, antecedents, consequences, model cases, and empirical referents of the concept were identified and analyzed. Results Five defining attributes emerged: (1) manual stimulation of the feet, (2) therapeutic intention, (3) relief of physical and psychological symptoms, (4) enhancement of circulation, and (5) facilitation of self-care awareness. Antecedents included the presence of diabetic neuropathy and patient willingness to engage in complementary care. Consequences ranged from pain reduction and improved circulation to increased self-care adherence. Empirical referents included pain scores, circulation metrics, and patient-reported outcomes. Conclusion Foot massage among diabetes patients is a multidimensional therapeutic concept that holds significant value in holistic nursing care. This analysis provides a theoretical foundation for its application in practice, research, and nursing education, emphasizing its potential to enhance comfort, self-management, and quality of life in diabetic care.

Abstract

Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) presents significant challenges beyond glycemic control, particularly for women in culturally conservative societies. In Uzbekistan, women with diabetes often face psychological burdens, social stigma, and role conflict, yet little is known about their lived experiences. Objective This study aimed to explore the lived experiences of women with type 2 diabetes in Uzbekistan and to understand how they interpret and cope with the condition within their cultural and social environments. Methods A qualitative descriptive phenomenological approach was used. Sixteen women diagnosed with T2DM for at least one year were recruited purposively from outpatient clinics in Tashkent and Samarkand. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews and analyzed using Colaizzi’s method. Lincoln and Guba’s trustworthiness criteria guided the rigor of the study. Results Four major themes emerged: (1) altered perception of life with diabetes, (2) psychosocial challenges and emotional burden, (3) coping strategies and spiritual resilience, and (4) disruption of family roles and responsibilities. Participants described diabetes as a constant and invisible burden, exacerbated by stigma, misunderstanding, and gendered expectations. Despite these challenges, many women relied on spirituality and structured routines to regain control and meaning. Conclusion Women with T2DM in Uzbekistan experience diabetes as a complex emotional and social phenomenon. Addressing their needs requires culturally sensitive interventions that integrate psychosocial support, family involvement, and gender-responsive health education.

Abstract

Background: The Intrauterine Device (IUD) is one of the most effective long-acting reversible contraceptives, yet its utilization remains low in Indonesia, including at Gumawang Community Health Center, Ogan Komering Ulu Timur District. Predisposing factors such as knowledge, beliefs, and cultural perceptions are believed to contribute to the low uptake of IUDs. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the factors influencing IUD use among women of reproductive age. Methods: A qualitative study with a phenomenological approach was conducted to explore participants’ experiences and perceptions. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs) involving 17 informants, including IUD acceptors, non-IUD acceptors, unmet need groups, health workers, and family planning program officers. Data analysis employed reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, supported by source triangulation to ensure trustworthiness. Results: Three major themes emerged: (1) knowledge—variations in understanding IUD definition, duration, benefits, and side effects; (2) beliefs—dominated by fear, shame, and mixed religious views; and (3) culture—community myths and narratives surrounding IUD safety that shape perceptions negatively. These findings demonstrate that misinformation and limited exposure strongly influence decision-making regarding IUD adoption. Conclusion: Knowledge, beliefs, and cultural perceptions significantly affect women’s decisions to use IUDs. Strengthening health education, counseling, and partnerships with community and religious leaders is essential to counter misinformation and improve IUD acceptance.

Abstract

Background: Gastroenteritis is an inflammation of the stomach and small intestine caused by bacterial or viral infection, characterized by symptoms such as defecation more than three times per day. This condition often leads to nursing problems including impaired skin integrity, discomfort or pain, hyperthermia, and, most commonly, fluid volume deficit (hypovolemia). Oral rehydration therapy (ORT) plays an essential role in preventing hypovolemic complications, particularly dehydration ranging from mild to severe. ORT not only restores the balance of sodium and potassium concentrations in the body but also accelerates the recovery process. Objective: This study aimed to provide nursing care and to evaluate the effectiveness of oral rehydration therapy in children with gastroenteritis and hypovolemia in a general hospital. Methods: A case study approach was applied to explore nursing care management for pediatric patients with gastroenteritis and hypovolemia receiving oral rehydration therapy. The study compared two pediatric clients aged 1–5 years, admitted in July 2024 with gastroenteritis and hypovolemia. Data were collected through informed consent forms, interviews, observations, physical examinations, pediatric nursing assessment formats, and documentation. The case study was conducted over three consecutive days in a general hospital setting. Results: After three days of nursing interventions, with the primary diagnosis of hypovolemia related to active fluid loss, the administration of oral rehydration therapy demonstrated effective outcomes. Nursing care interventions— including observation, therapeutic actions, education, and collaboration—led to the resolution of the problem on the third day of care. Conclusion: This case study highlights the comparison of nursing care in two pediatric clients with gastroenteritis and hypovolemia undergoing oral rehydration therapy, showing that the intervention effectively resolved the problem within three days. Continued parental education was provided as part of the follow-up care.

Abstract

Background Patient satisfaction is a critical indicator for evaluating the quality of healthcare services, including electronic medical record (EMR) services in hospitals. As one of the main healthcare providers in Ogan Komering Ilir Regency, Tugu Jaya Regional General Hospital has not yet provided specific data regarding patient satisfaction in its registration unit. Objective This study aimed to analyze factors associated with patient satisfaction with electronic medical record services in the registration unit. Methods A quantitative study with a cross-sectional design was conducted. The study population consisted of all patients registered at the hospital registration unit between January and April 2025. A total of 93 respondents were selected using purposive sampling based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis was performed using univariate analysis, bivariate analysis with Chi-square test, and multivariate analysis with multiple logistic regression. Results The findings indicated that education, tangibles, empathy, and assurance were significantly associated with patient satisfaction (p<0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that tangibles (OR=3.93; 95% CI: 1.44–10.74) and assurance (OR=3.61; 95% CI: 1.15–11.31) were the dominant predictors of patient dissatisfaction. Conclusion Patient satisfaction with electronic medical record services in the registration unit of general hospital was significantly influenced by the dimensions of tangibles, empathy, and assurance, with tangibles identified as the dominant factor. Efforts to improve patient satisfaction should prioritize enhancing physical facilities, fostering empathetic attitudes, and strengthening trust through professional and reliable services.

Abstract

Background: The aging process leads to a progressive decline in physiological function, including muscle strength and body balance, which increases the risk of falls among older adults. Falls are one of the leading causes of injury-related morbidity and mortality in the elderly, significantly reducing quality of life.. Objective: This study aimed to implement a combination of tandem walking and balance exercises as an intervention to prevent falls in older adults with balance impairments at the Tanjung Agung Community Health Center. Methods: A descriptive case study design with a nursing process approach was applied. Two elderly participants with moderate fall risk, as assessed by the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), were included. The intervention consisted of tandem walking and balance exercise sessions twice weekly for four weeks. Balance outcomes were measured pre- and post-intervention using the BBS, complemented by structured interviews and direct observation.. Results: Both participants demonstrated improvement in balance performance. The BBS score of Participant 1 increased from 40 to 51, shifting from moderate to low fall risk. Participant 2 improved from 39 to 46, reflecting enhanced postural stability, though still within moderate risk. Both reported greater confidence and stability during standing and walking, with reduced reliance on external support. Conclusion: The combination of tandem walking and balance exercises was effective in improving static and dynamic balance while reducing fall risk in older adults with balance disorders. This intervention is recommended as a practical fall-prevention strategy in community and primary healthcare settings.
