Abstract

Introduction: The coaching clinic is one of the strategies designed to increase nurses' knowledge in conducting genetic counseling for patients and families of thalassemia patients. Nurses will not only be given information, but they will also be taught how to communicate and how to use genetic counseling to make sure the coaching clinic's goals are met. Objective: This study aims to describes the effect of a simple coaching clinic on nurses' knowledge of genetic counseling implementation in thalassemia care. Methods: This research used a quantitative approach and was conducted on August 20th–21st , 2022. The design of this study was quasi-experimental without a control group. This study obtained a total sample of 29 nurses using a proportional sampling technique and inclusion criteria. The inclusion criteria in this study were nurses with a diploma degree, an undergraduate education background, and registered nurses. The data collection instrument was a 30-questions genetic counseling questionnaire. IBM SPSS version 25.0 was used to analyze the data using the Wilcoxon test. Results: Simple coaching clinic proved to have a significant effect in improving the knowledge level of nurses in general with p-value = 0.004. Knowledge level improvement can be seen from Mean (+SD) 53.67 (+13.64) to 69.67 (+8.26). Likewise with nurses' knowledge about thalassemia, genetic counseling and bio-informatics, the majority of respondents experienced positive changes. In contrast to the genetic topic, the majority of respondents did not experience a change in their level of knowledge so that a p-value >0.05 was obtained. Conclusions: Changes in level of knowledge indicated that the coaching clinic's effects on level of knowledge are significant and have an impact on health services across a variety of health institutions, including clinics and hospitals. As a result, it is critical to have a health strategy that promotes the accessibility of genetic counseling services for patients with thalassemia and other genetic illnesses.

Abstract

Introduction: Thalassemia is a common hereditary blood disorder with a significant impact on public health, particularly in high-prevalence areas. Genetic counseling and premarital screening are critical for educating couples at risk, helping to reduce the incidence of thalassemia. However, there is often a lack of accessible and comprehensible information on this topic for prospective couples, especially at the community health level. Objective: This study aimed to develop an educational leaflet tailored for prospective couples, focusing on genetic counseling and premarital screening for thalassemia. The leaflet is designed to enhance awareness, provide clear information, and encourage informed decision-making among couples. Method: A descriptive research design was employed to create and validate the educational leaflet. The development process included a needs assessment through surveys and focus group discussions with nurse educators and couples in the target population. Content was adapted based on expert feedback from genetic counselors and nurses educators to ensure accuracy, readability, and cultural relevance. Result: The finalized leaflet contains essential information on thalassemia, genetic counseling, and the importance of premarital screening. It is structured in a user-friendly format, including illustrations and a simplified language level to facilitate understanding. Conclusion: The educational leaflet effectively provides prospective couples with critical information on thalassemia, genetic counseling, and premarital screening. This tool can serve as a valuable resource in public health centers to promote awareness and preventive measures for hereditary diseases. Further research is recommended to evaluate its long-term impact on reducing thalassemia incidence.

Anxiety that is not treated will make the length of hospitalization days and worsen conditions. One of the interventions that can be done to treat anxiety in school-age children undergoing hospitalization is expressive writing therapy. Objective: This study aims to determine the effectiveness of expressive writing therapy on the anxiety of school-age children undergoing hospitalization. Methods: This research design uses quantitative methods with a pre-experimental one group pretest-posttest design. The study sample consisted of 25 respondents selected using purposive sampling technique based on the inclusion criteria, namely school-age children aged 10-12 years who can write, children who are undergoing hospitalization with stable conditions (children who are willing to communicate well and are able to sit on the patient's bed, parents who are willing for their children to become respondents, and children who experience anxiety based on screening results. Anxiety was measured using an instrument (CSAS-C). Results: Data analysis with the Paired Sample t-test test showed a p value = 0.000 (p <0.05) which means there is a difference in the average score of anxiety before and after the expressive writing therapy intervention. Conclusion: Based on the results of the analysis, it can be concluded that there is an effect of expressive writing therapy intervention on the average difference in anxiety of school-age children undergoing hospitalization before and after the intervention.

Abstract

Introduction: Improving the quality of healthcare remains a critical need in developing countries. Donabedian’s quality of care model provides a framework to evaluate healthcare outcomes, with patient satisfaction being a key indicator. Understanding patients' perceptions, knowledge, and satisfaction is essential for enhancing healthcare delivery. Objective: This study aimed to assess patients' perceptions, knowledge, and satisfaction with the quality of care provided at a tertiary hospital in Ibadan, Nigeria. Method: A total of 401 individuals were recruited, and data was collected using a self-administered questionnaire. Data were coded, cleaned, and analyzed using SPSS version 20. Descriptive statistics were summarized in frequency tables and figures, while Chi-square tests were used to test hypotheses at a significance level of p<0.05. Result: Out of 350 valid responses, 86% of respondents demonstrated substantial knowledge about the quality of care. However, 57.1% expressed dissatisfaction with the treatment received, while 56.6% maintained a positive perception of the hospital’s services. A significant relationship was found between knowledge of healthcare quality and perception (χ2 = 11.1, df = 1, p<0.05). On the other hand, the duration of hospital stay did not significantly affect overall satisfaction (χ2 = 0.69, df = 2, p = 0.708). Conclusion: The findings highlight the need to enhance patient satisfaction in healthcare services. Periodic investigations into patient perspectives are essential for informed decision-making and continuous quality improvement in healthcare delivery.

Abstract

Introduction: Labor pain in mothers is partly caused by a reduced oxygen supply to the uterine muscles during contractions. Non-pharmacological interventions, such as electric massage with infrared therapy on the spine, can help increase oxytocin levels, which may accelerate labor progress. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the infrared electric massage mattress (Kapein) in reducing labor pain and enhancing labor progress in primigravida mothers during the active phase of labor. Method: A true experimental research design with a pretest-posttest control group was used. The study involved all primigravida mothers in the active phase of labor at the Musytasyfah Karawang Clinic. A total sampling technique was employed, with 30 participants divided into an intervention group (15) and a control group (15). The data were analyzed using the McNemar test. The research was conducted from April to July 2024. Results: The study found that the infrared electric massage mattress (Kapein) was effective in reducing labor pain in primigravida mothers during the active phase (p=0.000). It also demonstrated effectiveness in improving labor progress (p=0.027). Conclusion: The infrared electric massage mattress (Kapein) is effective in reducing labor pain and improving labor progress in primigravida mothers during the active phase of labor. It is suggested that this intervention be considered as an alternative tool in obstetric services and recommended for use by the Health Office in childbirth care.
