Abstract

Hypertension or high blood pressure, this disease can attack anyone, both young and old. Hypertension (high blood pressure) is a medical condition characterized by systolic pressure greater than 140 mmHg and diastolic pressure greater than 90 mmHg. Efforts to prevent blood pressure problems are not only through medication, but also through complementary medicine to treat high blood pressure. Lemongrass foot hydrotherapy is a natural treatment that improves blood circulation by widening the blood vessels and improving blood circulation, which then stimulates the nerves in the feet, stimulating the activation of the sympathetic nerves and improving blood circulation. Quasi Experimental Method with pre test and post test with control group design. In two groups intervention and control (without treatment). Done for 3 days. The sample was 20 respondents. The results of bivariate analysis with 2 tests, namely the Wilcoxon test, showed a p value = 0.005 (p value 0.05), and the Man Whitney test showed a p value = 0.001 (p value 0.05). Therefore, it can be concluded that foot hydrotherapy with lemongrass is useful in lowering blood pressure in elderly people suffering from high blood pressure at the Community Health Center in the Tuntungan District. Pancur Batu, so that health center health workers can use complementary medicine as an alternative to lowering blood pressure for people with high blood pressure because it is easy and cheap from an economic perspective.

Abstract

Ankle ROM training is a movement that includes 2 movements, namely dorsiflexion and plantarflexion which result in increased calf muscle strength and increased calf muscle pump thereby facilitating venous return which has a positive impact in facilitating the diffusion of oxygen and nutrients. By providing Active Lower ROM intervention to Diabetes Mellitus patients twice a day for 6 consecutive days at the same time. Statistically, it can be seen that there was an influence on the ABI and DNE values before the intervention was given and after the Active Lower ROM intervention was given. This type of research uses quasi-experimental research using two group pretest-posttest, namely an experimental design where there are control and intervention groups. The samples in this study were 35, of which 17 samples were for the intervention group and 18 samples were for the control group. Based on the results of the research, data obtained from the analysis of the effect of giving ankle ROM exercises on the DNE score and ABI value in the intervention group and the control group were, in the DNE score, the statistical test result was p = 0.000, and it can be believed that there is a significant difference between the DNE score of the intervention group. And the control group after doing ankle ROM exercises (p = 0.000 α = 0.05), then H0 was rejected or there was an effect of ROM exercises on reducing the risk of neuropathy. Meanwhile, the ABI value showed a statistical test result of p = 0.002 and it can be believed that there is significant difference between the ABI values of the intervention group and the control group after ankle ROM exercises (p = 0.002 α = 0.05), so H0 is rejected or there is an effect of ROM exercises on reducing the risk of Angiopathy.

Abstract

Mefenamic acid is a derivative of anthranilic acid that functions as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), antipyretic, and analgesic. Mefenamic acid is included in the Biopharmaceutical Classification System (BCS) class II which has low solubility and high permeability. The manufacture of SNEDDS requires a non-ionic surfactant with an HLB (Hydrophilic-Lipophilic Balance) value of more than 10. Mefenamic acid has high solubility in the surfactant Labrasol which has HLB 12 and Tween 80 which has HLB 15. This study aims to develop mefenamic acid into a Self Nano-Emulsifying Drug Delivery System (SNEDDS) with the optimization of labrasol and tween 80 as surfactants. The optimization of mefenamic acid SNEDDS is made using the simplex lattice design method. In the optimization, 6 running SNEDDS formulas were obtained with mefenamic acid. Chemical physics testing includes organoleptic evaluation, pH, viscosity, percent of transmitters, emulsification time, stability, particle size, potential zeta, and level determination. The results showed that the optimal combination of labrasol and tweenat SNEDDS mefenamic acid 80, namely 24% Labrasol and 1% Tween 80, with a desirability value of 0.984, had a clear, non-rancid, homogeneous, liquid-shaped color, pH of 4.69, viscosity 31.33 cP, transmitter percentage 96.80%, emulsification time 29.11 seconds, particle size 44.30 nm, zeta potential -28.87 mV, and a polydispersivity index of 0.563, with a percentage of levels of 100.08%, 100.70%, and 99.87%, respectively.

Abstract

Adolescent mental health issues, particularly anxiety and depression, remain high among Indonesian high school students, yet accessible early detection tools are limited. This study evaluated user satisfaction with the mental health risk detection feature in the SatuSehat application using the End-User Computing Satisfaction (EUCS) model among students at SMA Negeri 1 Beber, Cirebon. Using a cross-sectional, descriptive-analytical quantitative design, a quota sample of 96 students (71% female, aged 17-18 years) completed a 24-item Likert scale questionnaire validated to measure the five dimensions of the EUCS. Data were analyzed using Spearman Rank correlation due to non-normal distribution. The results showed high satisfaction (mean=4.07/5), with the highest format (4.17) and the lowest timeliness (3.92). All dimensions were strongly positively correlated with satisfaction (r=0.688-0.860, p<0.001), with ease of use being the strongest. In conclusion, the SatuSehat feature effectively satisfies adolescent users for mental health screening.

Abstract

Candida sp. as  human body's flora causes infections and  its ability to create biofilms antifungals and host immune responses cannot reach it caused resistance to broad-spectrum antifungal.  In this study, the antifungal susceptibility patterns of ketoconazole, itraconazole, and fluconazole against biofilms of Candida sp. will be determined, as well as the differences in susceptibility patterns between biofilm and planktonic Candida sp.  The antifungal susceptibility of clinical isolates of  both planktonic and biofilm Candida sp. determine by liquid dilution methode and the intensity of biofilm formation determined by  Crystal Violet methode. Of the twenty-four Candida sp., 70.8% exhibited strong biofilm intensity, while 29.2% had moderate intensity. Planktonic Candida sp. exhibited a 100%, 78.9%, and 57.9% susceptibility pattern to fluconazole, ketokonazole, and itraconazole, respectively. Meanwhile, the sensitivity percentage decreased for biofilm Candida sp., which had sensitivity values of 31.6%, 21.1%, and 31.6%, respectively. Planktonic Candida sp. had MIC values ranging from 2 to about 33 times lower than those of biofilm Candida sp. Compared to planktonic Candida sp., the susceptibility pattern of biofilms revealed a lower sensitivity percentage. Planktonic Candida sp. had an average value ratio of 1.5 to 3.1 times, whereas Biofilm Candida sp. had MIC values 2 to > 33 times higher.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital health technologies in the era of Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0 has necessitated adequate digital literacy among healthcare professionals; However, empirical evidence in regional hospitals remains limited. This study aims to describe the level of digital literacy among healthcare workers at a regional public hospital in 2026 based on eight dimensions of digital competence. A quantitative descriptive cross-sectional design was employed, involving all 90 healthcare workers through total sampling. Data were collected using a validated and highly reliable 21-item questionnaire (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.970) measured on a six-point Likert scale and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The findings indicated that overall digital literacy was at a high level (82%), with the highest score in the ability to find and select information (87%) and the lowest in functional skills (78%). All dimensions, including communication, collaboration, creativity, critical thinking, cultural understanding, and digital safety, were consistently categorized as high. These results suggest that healthcare workers demonstrate strong readiness to support digital health transformation, although technical skill enhancement remains necessary. The study contributes empirical evidence for developing targeted training programs and strengthening digital health implementation in regional healthcare settings.

Abstract

Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is an important cause of heart failure during pregnancy and postpartum, but patient profile data at district hospitals such as Waled Regional Hospital, Cirebon is still very limited. This study aims to describe the profile of peripartum cardiomyopathy patients at Waled Regional Hospital, Cirebon Regency, from January 2022 to June 2025. A retrospective descriptive study design was used with secondary data analysis from the medical records of all patients diagnosed with PPCM, including variables such as age, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, parity, multiple pregnancies, hemoglobin levels, random blood sugar, urea, creatinine, and echocardiography results (LVEF). Analysis was performed with univariate frequency distribution using nominal and ordinal scales. The results showed that most patients were aged 36–45 years (45.16%), multiparous (54.84%), had grade II hypertension (39.03%), and had LVEF <40% (77.42%), while diabetes mellitus and multiple pregnancies were very rare. Thus, in this setting PPCM primarily affects elderly multiparous mothers with severe hypertension and left ventricular systolic dysfunction, highlighting the need for strengthened risk-based screening and collaborative management between obstetrics and cardiology

Abstract

The increasing prevalence of diabetes mellitus necessitates aggressive preventive interventions, particularly for diabetic foot ulcers that often go undetected in primary care settings. This study aimed to design and develop a web-based prototype for diabetic foot screening using Inlow's 60-second Diabetic Foot Screen integrated with a forward-chaining Clinical Decision Support System. This research employed a Research and Development approach with the Expert System Development Life Cycle framework. Data were collected from 30 patients with diabetes at Sindangwangi Health Center using purposive sampling. The system's usability was evaluated using the Post-Study System Usability Questionnaire (PSSUQ). The developed system successfully automated risk categorization and provided personalized clinical recommendations based on physical foot parameters. Usability testing revealed high satisfaction levels with a grand mean PSSUQ score of 1.34, where System Quality (1.47), Information Quality (1.41), and Interface Quality (1.15) were all rated as excellent. These findings demonstrate that the integrated digital screening tool is reliable, highly usable, and effectively facilitates early detection of foot complications in primary health services. This innovation provides a scalable solution for enhancing preventive care, reducing the burden of diabetes-related complications, and improving health documentation precision in resource-limited settings.
