Abstract

The prevalence of stunting among under-fives in Indonesia is still high, including in Tegal Regency, one of the loci for stunting reduction. To prevent stunting, the growth and development of children under five are monitored at integrated service posts (posyandu). Some problems in posyandu include an inadequate budget allocation for cadre incentives and the supplementary feeding program and inadequate tools and supporting facilities. This study aims to investigate posyandu funding in the district locus for reducing stunting. This research employed a qualitative approach. Data were collected by document studies and in-depth interviews using a semi-structured interview. Data saturation was achieved after involving ten informants. The informants were posyandu program holders (main informants), sub-coordinators of the Health Office, heads of the community health centre (puskesmas) from four puskesmas, i.e., two puskesmas with a high prevalence of stunting and two puskesmas with a low prevalence of stunting. Three themes were generated in this study: funding sources, funding allocations, and efforts to fulfil funding. The results revealed that posyandu funds come from the government, the business sector, and the community. Posyandu's funds are allocated for the incentives and training of cadres, the fulfilment of standardized anthropometric supporting tools and facilities, and the supplementary feeding program. Advocacy for posyandu funding was conducted through development planning meetings, Healthy Village Houses, stunting discussions, and cross-sector coordination. Overall, the variety in posyandu finance is consistent with the norms and circumstances of the locals in each area. Cross-sector cooperation must also be strengthened to address the posyandu's operational requirements.

Abstract

Hypertension is the second most common disease in the world, and the majority of those who suffer from it are adults. This study seeks interventions for lowering the prevalence of hypertension in the elderly and controlling blood pressure. This study compared the effects of tomato juice and watermelon juice in decreasing blood pressure in hypertensive patients at UPT Puskesmas Karang Intan 2 between the ages of 26 and 45, South Kalimantan. With pretest and post-test groups, this study used a quasi-experimental design. Thirty-two respondents were divided into intervention group 1 (watermelon juice) and intervention group 2 (tomato juice). Respondents were chosen based on research criteria and given interventions for five days. The Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests were used to analyze the data. Watermelon juice and tomato juice had the same effect in lowering blood pressure in hypertensive patients aged 26 and 45 (p=0.102, =0.05). It implies that they were equally effective at lowering blood pressure because they contain the same beneficial substances in controlling blood pressure, such as potassium and citrulline.

Abstract

The shift in the pattern of non-communicable diseases to a younger age makes prediabetes undetected and tends to be ignored. Monitoring weight is an essential behavior for individuals to reduce the risk of obesity as a predictor of prediabetes. In addition, family support plays a crucial role in maintaining each individual's health in deciding his lifestyle. This study aimed to determine the relationship between self-efficacy weight management (SEWM) and family support on risk factors for prediabetes at the Community Health Center, Batam. The research design is a descriptive correlation with the cross-sectional approach. Fifty respondents were chosen using a purposive sampling technique based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Instrument of INA-PRISC questionnaire, Weight Efficacy Lifestyle Short Form Questionnaire, and Perceived Social Support from Family (PSS- Fa) utilized in this study. Based on univariate results, the majority of respondents aged 26-35 years (30%), female (68%), higher education background (78%), obesity (>25) (80%), had a family history of DM (60%), not smoking (70%), physical activity <150 minutes/week (94%), hypertension >160/100 mmHg (44%), moderate risk of prediabetes (48%), low SEWM (70%), and good family support (38%). A bivariate statistical test using Kendall's Tau B revealed there was a significant relationship between SEWM (< 0.05) and family support for risk factors for prediabetes (< 0.05). It is suggested that respondents increase self-awareness in the early detection of prediabetes risk and the family's active role in assisting family members in starting an active and healthy lifestyle.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a disease characterized by high blood sugar levels that could occur in school-age children. One of the risk factors of DM is being overweight, which is influenced by an unbalanced diet. Good knowledge of mothers in providing good nutritional intake to overweight children can reduce the risk of DM in children. This study aims to identify the relationship between mothers’ characteristics (age, occupation, education level, exposure to information from mass media, and family history of DM) and mothers’ level of knowledge about the diet of overweight children with the risk of DM in children aged 6-12 years in an elementary school in Tangerang. This study used a descriptive quantitative method with univariate and bivariate analysis. A purposive sampling of 31 mothers with overweight children was involved. The research instrument was a questionnaire measuring the mothers' level of knowledge about the diet of overweight children with a risk of DM. The results showed that only education level revealed a relationship with mothers’ level of knowledge (p-value <0.05), while other characteristics indicated no relationship (p-value > 0.05). Increasing mothers ‘knowledge about healthy diets for children can be obtained from formal education, but non-formal education also plays an important role. Schools can reach out to health units to provide health education about the diet of school-age children and provide a clean and healthy canteen. Further research should identify other factors influencing the mother's knowledge level.

Abstract

Compliance is an attitude or behaviour as an effort to carry out requests or orders from others. Self-isolation also applies to students living in Western Indonesian Private University dormitories. It is intended for people with symptoms of COVID-19, such as coughing, shortness of breath, fever, sore throat, runny nose, other respiratory diseases, and a history of contact with suspected patients. Research This study aims to identify a description of nursing students' compliance in independent isolation in a dormitory at a private university in Western Indonesia. This study uses a retrospective type of research that takes data from March to September 2021 using quantitative research methods and a descriptive approach with sampling using the Purposive Sampling technique. The population in this study were final-year students with a sample size of 88 respondents. The measuring instrument in this study is a questionnaire with 11 questions. This questionnaire was tested for validity and reliability by 30 respondents who were final-year students. Researchers used univariate data analysis to describe student compliance in self-isolation. The results show that the level of compliance of the respondents was 59.1%, and non-compliance was 40.9%. In conclusion, most of the students were obedient in carrying out self-isolation. However, implementing health protocols should be maintained as preventive action for COVID-19.

Abstract

Global prevalence data released by WHO (2021) shows a decrease in positive cases of COVID-19 in Indonesia by 18%. One of the government's policy efforts to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus is establishing health protocols, including physical distancing, wearing masks, and hand washing. There is an increase in the number of dormitory residents at one of the western Indonesian universities, which causes a decrease in the effectiveness of implementing health protocols. The study aims to identify the application of health protocols, including physical distancing, wearing masks, and hand washing among nursing students. This study uses descriptive quantitative research methods. The instrument used is an online questionnaire, a random sampling technique with univariate data. The results showed that the 2019 and 2020 nursing students, 232 respondents (99.1%) and two respondents (0.9%) did not apply health protocols properly. In conclusion, most nursing students in Western Indonesian universities applied health protocols. Suggestions for students are expected to be able to maintain and improve the implementation of health protocols in dormitories to prevent the increase in the spread of COVID-19 or other infections. For further research, we are expected to use bivariate analysis to suppress the increase in respiratory infection cases.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic and recurrent infections are ongoing worldwide, including Indonesia. Physical issues often occur with fever, nausea, cough, flu, diarrhoea, and body aches. The psychological issues that occur are anxiety, fear of death, worry about losing a job, and stigma from society. Repeated infection with COVID-19 can cause disturbances in self-concept, including self-identity, self-image, role performance, self-esteem, and adaptation. The study aimed to explore the self-concept and adaptation of patients with recurrent infection with COVID-19 in the work area of the Binong Health Center, Curug District, Tangerang Regency. The research design is descriptive phenomenology, with an in-depth interview technique of 15 participants using the Colaizzi method. The research results in the aspect of self-concept explored four (4) themes, namely 1). Age and gender affect the concern, which uses traditional herbal alternatives. 2) changes in body image do not cause concern, 3). awareness to limit roles in order to prevent transmission, 4). good self-health can increase self-esteem. The adaptation aspect found that the ability to adapt physically and psychologically speeds up the healing process of the disease. The study concludes that self-concept is not disturbed but feels worried when exposed to COVID-19 again. In the aspect of adaptation, it finds the need to balance physical, psychological, and spiritual conditions. Recommendations for further research to conduct qualitative research with Focus Group Discussion (FGD) regarding self-concept and adaptation of patients re-infected with COVID-19 for the third time.

Abstract

Pneumonia is an infectious disease affecting the lower respiratory tract with signs and symptoms such as coughing and shortness of breath. Pneumonia cases in Indonesia are estimated to have 4 million deaths due to pneumonia every year. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Slow, Deep Breathing and Humming techniques on changes in oxygen saturation in pneumonia patients at Jayapura Regional Hospital. This quantitative research uses a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test approach without a control group design. The sample consisted of 30 subjects who were given a slow deep breathing technique intervention of 5 cycles in 15 minutes and humming four cycles in 10 minutes, done once daily for six days. The instruments in the research used the Pulse Oximetry tool. The sampling technique used nonprobability sampling with total sampling. The results showed a difference in SpO2 values before and after the Slow, Deep Breathing, and Humming intervention was carried out in subjects with pneumonia with a p= 0.001 (p < 0.05). It can be interpreted that the Hypothesis (Ha1) is accepted so that it can be concluded that the slow, deep breathing and humming interventions can help improve Sp02. There is a need for further research on nurses' complementary therapy in oxygenation management, where this exercise is one of the nurse's interventions in overcoming decreased SpO2 in pneumonia patients.

Abstract

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the care of elderly patients underwent significant changes. Society tends to avoid interaction outside the family, encouraging increased care of elderly patients at home. In this situation, the role of medical personnel becomes essential. This study examines how knowledge, culture, and interest influence homecare services during a pandemic. Respondents regarding homecare were collected from 71 families through a questionnaire. Data analysis includes univariate, bivariate and multivariate aspects to provide an overview of the relationship between variables. All data were analyzed using SPSS software. The result of this study shows p-value of each construct is less than 0.10, which indicates a strong relationship between variables. The findings show that knowledge influences family decisions about home care (p-value=0.024<0.10), while culture (pvalue=0.999>0.10) and interests (p-value=0.999>0.10) do not support acceptance of this service for the elderly. Therefore, it is hoped that respondents will increase their knowledge of improving elderly care and utilization of health services, which will positively impact the quality of life in old age. An in-depth discussion of these findings is carried out in a research paper.
