Abstract

Background: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive disease characterized by airflow obstruction that requires effective self-management. Health education is a crucial intervention to improve patient understanding of symptom management. This study aims to analyze the effect of health education on patients' knowledge regarding COPD management in the inpatient ward of Vina Estetica Hospital, Medan. Methods: This research employed a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. Sampling was conducted using total sampling, including 32 COPD patients as respondents. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using the paired t-test. Results: Before the health education intervention, the majority of respondents had good knowledge (59.4%). After the intervention, all respondents (100%) achieved the good knowledge category. Statistical tests showed a significant effect of health education on increasing patient knowledge (p-value 0.000; t-count 4.605). Conclusion: Health education is effective in improving the knowledge of COPD patients. It is recommended that nursing services implement continuous health education programs to optimize patient care.

Abstract

Background: Childhood visual impairment, largely stemming from preventable or correctable conditions such as uncorrected refractive errors, remains a significant global public health challenge. School-based vision screening programs are effective for identification, but their impact is often limited by poor parental and child adherence to follow-up care and recommended preventive behaviors. Health promotion interventions utilizing various media formats have emerged as a strategy to bridge this gap. This mini-review synthesizes evidence from the past decade on the effectiveness of media-based health promotion for educating children and their caregivers about eye health. Methods: Drawing on peer-reviewed literature, this review examines the impact of digital, broadcast, and specialized print media on outcomes including spectacle compliance, referral adherence, and knowledge improvement. Results: Evidence indicates that culturally tailored interventions utilizing diverse media channels can significantly improve eye health behaviors. The review identifies that successful interventions are characterized by cultural relevance, community engagement in development, and the strategic use of multiple media platforms to create reinforcing messages. Key findings from the literature include a 12% reduction in myopia incidence through combined health education and outdoor activity programs, the cost-effectiveness of musical messaging in improving referral adherence, and the potential of digital platforms for delivering scalable education. Conclusion: However, challenges remain in ensuring long-term behavior change and addressing the needs of children with disabilities. Future research should focus on comparative effectiveness studies, long-term sustainability, and the integration of innovative technologies with personalized education to maximize the public health impact of these interventions.

Abstract

Background: Street foods, particularly fried snacks, are highly popular among university students due to their convenience and affordability. However, the safety of such foods is a public health concern, as they are susceptible to contamination by coliform bacteria, which can cause gastrointestinal illnesses such as diarrhea. This study aimed to analyze the total coliform bacteria in fried snacks sold around the Universitas Prima Indonesia campus area in Medan as an indicator of food safety. Methods: This descriptive laboratory study analyzed fried snack samples of two types (rissole and filled tofu) collected from six street vendors on Jalan Ayahanda, Medan. Samples were obtained using a simple random sampling technique, resulting in a total of 12 samples. The presence of coliform bacteria was determined using the Most Probable Number (MPN) method with a 3-3-3 tube series, which included a presumptive test using Lactose Broth (LB) medium. Data were analyzed descriptively by comparing results with the standard set by the Indonesian Ministry of Health Regulation No. 2 of 2023 (maximum permissible limit <3.6 MPN/gram). Results: All 12 samples tested negative in the presumptive test, indicated by the absence of gas bubbles in the Durham tubes after 48 hours of incubation. The MPN value for all samples was <3 MPN/gram, confirming they met the required safety standard (<3.6 MPN/gram). Conclusion: Fried snacks sold around the Universitas Prima Indonesia campus were free from coliform bacterial contamination and are considered safe for consumption based on current regulations. Factors such as the high-temperature deep-frying process (>150°C) and adequately maintained vendor sanitation practices likely contributed to the absence of contamination.

Abstract

Background: Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (PHBS) in schools is a government program implemented through community health centers to improve public health status. Elementary school-aged children are a vulnerable group for various diseases associated with PHBS. This study aimed to identify factors associated with PHBS among students at public elementary schools in Banda Aceh City. Methods: A quantitative study with a cross-sectional design was conducted from November 2023 to January 2024. The population comprised 192 students, with a sample of 85 fourth and fifth grade students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires and checklists and analyzed using the Chi-Square test. Results: Results showed that most respondents were male (51.8%) and aged 5-11 years (61.2%). More than half of respondents (56.5%) demonstrated poor PHBS, 65.9% had low knowledge levels, 45.9% reported unavailable PHBS facilities and infrastructure, and 60.0% perceived teacher roles as poor. Bivariate analysis revealed significant associations between knowledge level (p=0.024) and availability of facilities and infrastructure (p=0.004) with PHBS; however, no significant association was found between teacher role and PHBS (p=0.562). Conclusion: In conclusion, knowledge level and availability of facilities and infrastructure were significantly associated with PHBS among public elementary school students in Banda Aceh City. It is recommended that community health centers conduct regular PHBS education in schools and that schools complete necessary facilities while strengthening supervision of student PHBS implementation.

Abstract

Background: Patient safety is a primary priority in healthcare services; however, adverse events persist and are often associated with nurse performance and weak supervision. This study aimed to analyze the influence of supervision by the Head of Medical Services and the performance of inpatient ward nurses on patient safety at Aek Kanopan Regional General Hospital, North Labuhanbatu Regency. Methods: This quantitative study employed a cross-sectional design. The study population comprised all 120 implementing nurses in the inpatient wards, who were also recruited as the total sample. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire measuring nurse perceptions of supervision, performance, and patient safety implementation. Data analysis included univariate and bivariate analyses using the Chi-Square test. Results: The majority of respondents rated supervision as good (84.2%), nurse performance as good (84.2%), and patient safety as good (84.2%). Bivariate analysis demonstrated a significant association between supervision and patient safety (p=0.000) and between nurse performance and patient safety (p=0.000). Conclusion: This study concludes that effective supervision by department heads and optimal nurse performance contribute significantly to improved patient safety. Hospital management is advised to strengthen supervisory capacity and invest in continuing professional development programs for nurses.
