Abstract

Anemia is a condition of hemoglobin or red blood cells below 7gr/dl. The government's efforts to encourage pregnant women to consume 90 Fe tablets during pregnancy have not achieved national coverage due to the absence of a monitoring and evaluation program that is direct to low attitudes and adherence. Therefore, it is necessary to design an effective strategy with a smart monitoring system to observe the attitudes and adherence of pregnant women in consuming Fe tablets. The study aimed to determine the effect of a smart monitoring system on attitudes and adherence to the consumption of iron supplement tablets in pregnant women in the work area of Puskesmas Klego 1.The type of research adopted quantitative with the pre-experimental method using the one-group pre-test and post-test design research design. The sampling used a total sampling technique with 50 respondents. Data analysis utilized paired T-test and Wilcoxon test to determine the effect of a smart monitoring system on attitudes and adherence.The analysis of the Paired T-Test presented p value = 2.61 (p = 2.61->0.05). It indicated no effect of the smart monitoring system on attitudes. The results of the Wilcoxon test analysis obtained a p-value = 0.000 (p = 0.00-<0.05. There are differences in the effect of using the smart monitoring system on the attitudes of pregnant women in the work area of Puskesmas Klego 1. Recommendations for further research are to enhance the application features.

Abstract

Burns are tissue damage due to contact with a heat source, such as fire, hot water, chemicals, electricity, or radiation. Burns are a type of trauma with high morbidity and mortality rates and require high treatment costs. In Indonesia, burns are still a serious problem that requires special care, high costs, and skilled personnel. Currently, burn assessments are carried out manually, which is time-consuming and the results are subjective. Treatment efforts include preventing infection and encouraging epithelial cell regeneration to close the wound. Therefore, innovation is needed in the form of a system that helps assess burns more effectively, including classifying wound tissue, measuring wound area, and monitoring wound development. The use of an Android-based system can provide more accurate measurements through a digital planimetry approach or image segmentation, which can identify wound boundaries and tissue types. Technology-based health applications, such as the "Degree of Burn" application, allow for more efficient calculation of burn area and fluid requirements. This study uses a literature review method from international journals, national journals, books, and conference results related to burn assessment to support the development of this system.

Abstract

Background: Malaria is a global problem and it’s incidence increasing every year. Malaria caused by several factors such as gender and age. Men are more at risk of malaria than woman and adults are more affected by malaria than children and the elderly. Methods: This study used observational analysis method with Cross-Sectional approach with total sampling technique, with 754 samples that fit the inclusion criteria. The data was analized with Chi-square test correlation analysis, and Risk metode to determine the Prevelence ratio value, and also the contingency coefficient test. Results: The most positive RDT results were found in men (62.4%) and (53.1%) were found in adult with the results of the chi-square test on the gender variable and RDT results obtained a value of p-value = 0.00 (p < 0.05) and OR = 14.9 (CI 95% 5,845-38,032) which means there is a relationship between gender and the incidence of malaria and men have a high risk of malaria 14.9 times greater than women. The results of the age variable test with the incidence of malaria using Coefficient Contingency with Spearman Correlation obtained a value of p = 0.000 (p <0.05) with an r-value = 0.194. These results indicate that there is a relationship between age and malaria incidence rates with a very weak correlation value. Discussion: man and adults are more affected by malaria due to outdoor physical activity, immune system influences, and hormonal system influences. Adults are more often affected by malaria due to lifestyle and daily activities.

Abstract

Asting, a condition characterized by low body weight in toddlers, has a prevalence of 28.94% in Martapura Timur District. This study aimed to explore the relationship between income, food availability, and consumption patterns as factors contributing to wasting among toddlers aged 12-59 months. Using a Cross-Sectional design, data were collected from 45 purposively sampled toddlers through questionnaires, food availability forms, and food frequency forms. Spearman Rank correlation (α=0.05) was employed for data analysis. Findings revealed that most mothers were under 20 or over 35 years old, with junior high school education and predominantly unemployed. Male toddlers were slightly more prevalent, with 82.2% classified as wasting and 17.8% in severe wasting. Low family income (below the minimum wage) was common (71.1%), and food availability ranged from insufficient to barely sufficient. Consumption patterns were largely suboptimal (64.4%), with staple food intake (<150 g/day) limited to rice and corn, animal protein (50 g/day) from eggs only, plant protein (<40 g/day) primarily from tofu, and minimum vegetable consumption (30 g/week of pumpkin, 1-3 times weekly). Statistical analysis indicated significant relationships between family income (p=0.048, r=0.296), food availability (p=0.048, r=0.296), and consumption patterns (ρ=0.002, r=0.455) with wasting. The strongest relationship was found in food availability. Efforts are being made to increase awareness through health centers, encouraging mothers to utilize home yards for food production, enhancing food availability, and improving children's diets. Addressing these factors can help reduce the prevalence of wasting and promote better nutrition in toddlers.

Abstract

Nearly 70% of expectant mothers experience back pain, which makes it difficult for them to do daily tasks, including sleeping. This study sought to determine how Andaliman Oil affected third-trimester pregnant women's low back pain. Using a one-group pretest-postest design, which is a pre-experimental with a pre-test (taken before treatment) and post-test (taken after treatment) in one group, this research approach employs quasi-experiments. Third Trimester Pregnant Women with back and waist pain made up the study's sample. The Modified Oswestry Low Back (ODI) is the tool used to evaluate back discomfort. The application of andaliman oil is carried out by continually applying it to the mother's back and waist until the respondent has the sensation for fifteen minutes. After that, the mother is given a post-instrument to gauge the impact of andaliman oil on her pain levels. According to the findings of statistical testing, there was a decrease in back pain and a decrease in dysmenorrhea, with an average of 15.50. Additionally, a significant difference between the pre- and post-intervention periods is indicated by a p-value of less than 0.05. Additionally, the Z min value = -0.632 is found, indicating that longer and more frequent use of andaliman oil can lessen back discomfort in pregnant women in Third Trimester.

Abstract

The success of the National Family Planning (KB) Movement in encouraging increased community participation in building increasingly independent small families must be considered and even improved because this achievement is not evenly distributed. Likewise, what happened in the Patiluban Mudik Health Center work area where the number of Fertile Age Couples using KB was only a portion of the total number of Fertile Age Couples recorded up to May 2023, which was 514 PUS. The purpose of the study was to determine the factors that influence fertile age couples in terms of the use of Long-Term Contraceptive Methods (MKJP) in the Patiliuban Mudik Health Center Work Area, Natal District, Mandailing Natal Regency in 2023. The research method is quantitative research with a cross-sectional study design approach. The study was conducted in the working area of ​​Patiluban Mudik Health Center with a sample size of 92 people. The analysis used was Chi Square. The results showed a significant relationship between knowledge and the use of MKJP (P value = 0.018 <0.05), there was a significant relationship between family support and the use of MKJP (P value = 0.0033 > 0.05). There was a relationship between parity and the use of MKJP (P value = 0.011 <0.05), The results of this study recommend that Patiluban Mudik Health Center be more intensive in providing counseling about MKJP so that the number of KB users, especially MKJP, can be increased and to find factors that influence PUS not to be willing to use the MKJP method.
