Abstract

Several public health center temporary closures due to antigen positive health workers in Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta have been reported. Behind the scene, there was confusion among health workers when they were not sure about sources of transmission and concerns about wider transmission among health workers and their families. This paper reports the Yogyakarta City Health Office initiative to build health workers’ awareness and to protect health centers protected from transmitting all contagious conditions in the future, learning from the experience of the covid 19 pandemic. Kota Yogyakarta Health authority and Universitas Gadjah Mada held two focus group discussions to document (1) the experience of responding to cases of reactive antigens in health workers who need to receive future follow-up from the experiences of 18 puskesmas heads and elements of the health office, and (2) the puskesmas Covid 19 screening and testing capacity for the community and health personnel use. This report raises the importance of safe workplace operational rules that prevent disease transmission and urgent actions to enforce these rules in puskesmas and health offices.

Abstract

Purpose: To describe shifts in gadgets usage for online schools during the Covid-19 pandemic and the potential for visual impairment in children based on a literature review. Contents: The Covid-19 pandemic has impacted all aspects of life, including the change in learning methods from offline to online. These led to a lack of outdoor activities and increased gadgets usage, especially among school children. Gadgets usage in children could cause visual disturbances in the form of myopia, so it needs to be limited. A cohort study in Rotterdam found an association between computer use and the incidence of myopia in 9-year-olds. A study in Hong Kong compared the duration of smartphone use before and during the Covid-19 pandemic with the incidence of myopia in school-age children. These studies showed an increase in myopia prevalence three times after the pandemic. These can become a public health problem in the future if not prevented early. We recommend that children spend at least 2 hours in an open area to help improve their eyesight. Parents also need to be more aware of eye complaints in their children. Routine annual eye examinations also need to be carried out to detect early vision problems to prevent myopia progression.

Abstract

ies Trying out a presentation in a professional symposium is difficult for a beginner. Even novice writers have difficulty imagining what they will tell conference attendees. They even have difficulty distinguishing what questions they want to be answered and shared in scientific meetings. For example, they find it difficult to focus on something general (conceptual) or specific (operational); specific case stories different from others, failed cases, or best practice cases. This paper explores the importance of observing a preferred program and the potential of an open science approach in overcoming the difficulties of students and lecturers in starting their development as professionals. The primary failure of beginners is that they do not yet have a collection of one type of program from various countries, which they collect from day to day by comparing with each other. The second failure is that they do not have a discussion partner, which makes them open to finding hot points from their program, encouraging them to explore more exciting things. We emphasize that programming games and creating class assignments through an open science approach should be a writing strategy for students who analyze and apply the theory and framework of projects to help improve health programs in the field.

Abstract

Objective: Providing education through the "Father's Class" program to increase knowledge, care, awareness related to pregnancy and fostering husband empathy for pregnant women. Content: Maternal and infant deaths are still a health problem in Indonesia. This is a concern because maternal and infant mortality is an indicator of the degree of health and success of the implementation of health development of a country. Prevention that is being carried out in the form of standby villages, data collection of high-risk pregnant women has been and is being done to prevent the death of mothers and babies in the process of pregnancy, childbirth and after childbirth and procurement of classes of pregnant women. But in this case the prevention is only limited to pregnant women while for the role of couples to be less than optimal in supporting the health of pregnant women. The involvement of the husband in supporting the mother during pregnancy until after delivery is needed, because a husband not only meets the needs financially but pregnant women also need psychological and biological support. The mother's health affects the baby she will be born with. As a form of paternal support during pregnancy and after childbirth, procurement of the program "Father Class" becomes a place for husbands to get education. Procurement of "Father Class" becomes one of the innovations that can be done in village-level health services. At the village level, especially Javanese culture, it upholds family deliberation, so that the lack of husband's independence in decision making. This education is done to increase knowledge based on the importance of the role of the husband.

Abstract

Objective: To provide innovation in organic waste management in health care facilities. Background: An invention in the field of waste management that is environmentally sound and has opportunities for circular economy innovation is required. Waste management is still far from ideal. From the national target of the Government of Indonesia, namely 30% waste reduction and 70% waste management in 2025, the achievements in 2020, currently, the national level of waste management only reaches 67% while the waste reduction rate only gets 2.26%. The Covid-19 pandemic has also increased the accumulation of organic waste due to changes in waste production patterns. Likewise, with the activities of health service facilities (fasyankes), organic waste has a percentage of 80%, the highest compared to other waste. Not many innovations have been developed in health facilities related to organic waste management. Concept: One innovation that can be created in health facilities is organic waste management, especially food waste, namely waste bioconversion using Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae. BSF larvae can reduce organic waste by up to 55% and as a bioconversion agent that can produce four products. The first product is BSF larvae as an alternative protein source. The second product is a liquid resulting from larval activity as liquid fertilizer. The third and fourth products are dry organic waste used as fertilizer and biodiesel. Another advantage of BSF larvae is that BSF larvae are considered relatively safe for humans. In addition to reducing the population of house flies, human health can also reduce waste contamination against pathogenic bacteria Escherichia coli. In addition, the innovation of bioconversion of organic waste with BSF larvae is relatively easy in its application and has opportunities for circular economy innovation.

Abstract

To reduce the Neonatal Mortality Rate by at least 12 per 1,000 KH in 2030, increasing access and quality of services for newborns is a top priority by preventing malnutrition. Therefore, WHO and UNICEF urge breastfeeding for newborns to last for at least six months. However, breastfeeding is not easy, especially for new mothers. This research purpose is to determine the outcome of lactation class on breast milk production for postpartum mothers. This study method was Quasi-Experimental with a posttest-only control group design to determine the differences in breastfeeding expenditure for post-partum mothers on Day 7 by comparing what was done and not done in the lactation class. The research population was the third trimester’s pregnant women and who gave birth at BPM Tanjung Delitua Deli Serdang Regency from July to October 2019 was taken by purposive sampling. Univariate and Bivariate data analysis used dependent t-test and Independent t-test using SPSS. The results showed an increase in the average respondent's knowledge of 6.15, attitude 19.32, before and after lactation class was carried out, with a value of P = 0.000 and the difference in the average production of ASI 8.79 with a value of p=0.000, weight gain was 3.313 p=0.912 and elimination of infants 0.79 with a p value=0.028 of those who followed and those who did not participate in the lactation class. The implementation of lactation classes increases knowledge, attitudes, and differences in the production of postpartum breast milk and the elimination of babies.

Abstract

Purpose: Traditional Chinese Medicine Constitution (TCMC) is an instrument to measure health condition levels. This study aimed to measure the construct validity and reliability of the TCMC in Indonesia. Methods: Indonesian experts of TCMC checked the TCMC Indonesian translation, then tested it on 50 people to determine whether the items were understood or not. Next, TCMC was used to collect data in community service activities. 391 TCMC data were collected, and after checking data's completeness, there were 377 data for analysis. This study used Pearson correlation for measuring construct validity and Cronbach's alpha for reliability analysis. Results: All items from TCMC were valid with Sig value. (2-tailed) < 0.05. For reliability, the value of Cronbach Alpha on Qi-Deficiency was 0.608 (moderate); Yang-deficiency was 0.728 (high); Yin-deficiency was 0.769 (high); Phlegm-dampness was 0.672 (moderate); Damp-heat was 0,501 (moderate); Blood Stasis was 0.531 (moderate); Qi-stagnation was 0.777 (high); Inherited special was 0.719 (high) and Balanced was 0.727 (high). Conclusions: TCMC in Indonesian is valid and reliable and can be used to measure human health conditions from the perspectives of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Abstract

Purpose: The Citarum River, Indonesia, is one of the most polluted rivers in the world. Despite this, it is still used for community purposes. This preliminary study aims to determine the initial profile and magnitude of the problem in the health ecosystem along Citarum River, which focuses on stunting and the risk of autism associated with food consumption and environmental factors. Methods: Our random sample included children aged <5 years from their households in the Andir and Gajahmekar villages, from September 2018 to September 2019. We interviewed guardians on food consumption and the Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers - Revised (M-CHAT-R) questionnaire. The height measurement was interpreted with HAZ WHO-curve. The relationship between variables was analyzed through Chi-square. Results: This study showed that the proportion of stunting and risk of autism was 46.2% and 68%, respectively. Children who consume cow's milk and do not consume tomatoes are more at risk of developing autism. Moreover, subjects that consume chicken and fish from the Citarum riverbank have a higher risk of stunting and autism. Conclusions: Based on this preliminary study, the proportion of stunting and autism in children on the Citarum watershed is higher than the national average. The animal husbandry service authority must consider efforts to maximize this riverside habitat to provide livestock as a source of protein for communities around the river.

Abstract

Purposes: More than 1.5 billion people, or a quarter of the world's popula-:on, are infected by soil-transmi>ed helminth (STH). Children aged 2-14 years are the most suscep:ble to helminthiasis. In Indonesia, there are 60.4 million children infected with STH, with an average prevalence rate of 31.8%. Helminthiasis can cause growth and development disorders in children. The diagnosis of helminthiasis can be made by examining stool using qualitative (direct examination) and quantitative (Kato-Katz) methods. This study aimed to determine the accuracy of both methods in diagnosing helminthiasis using preserved stool specimens. Methods: This research design was an observational study with a cross-sec-:onal approach. A total of 140 stool samples preserved using 10% formalin for 13 months were examined with the Kato-Katz and direct examination methods using a light microscope. Results: Among the 140 stool samples examined, 64 samples (45.71%) were found positive for STH using the Kato-Katz method, while with the direct examination method, 50 samples (35.71%) were positive for STH. The accuracy test showed that the sensitivity and specificity values of the Kato Katz method were 86.79% and 79.31%, while the direct examination method was 64.15% and 81.60%, respectively. Conclusions: The Kato-Katz method was more sensitive than the direct examination method in diagnosing helminthiasis in preserved stool, but the direct examination method had a higher specificity value than the Kato-Katz method. In addition, the accuracy of examination of fresh and preserved stool specimens in diagnosing helminthiasis was not significantly different.
