Abstract

Prolonged gadget exposure significantly impairs children’s emotional regulation and social adaptability. Such challenges underscore the critical role of early intervention in realigning developmental trajectories and equipping children with adaptive skills for managing frustration and interpersonal engagement. Effective parental self-awareness management entails deliberate strategies to regulate screen time while enriching children’s environments with non-digital stimuli. The research aims to determine the management of parental self-awareness towards children who are addicted to gadgets. The research design is qualitative with a phenomenological method. Collecting data by interviews and observations. Based on the results of interviews with informants, four themes were obtained that explained the research problem. The themes obtained are based on parents' experiences managing self-awareness in children addicted to gadgets. The themes obtained are (1) the use of gadgets in everyday life, (2) characteristics of gadget dependence, (3) strategies to optimize gadget use, and (4) strategies to reduce gadget dependence. Management of parental self-awareness towards children addicted to gadgets, namely by supervising children when playing with gadgets, giving children time limits so they do not overdo it, and directing them to educational websites that children can use. For busy working parents, it is recommended that they still be able to control the intensity (duration and frequency) of gadget use by only giving them gadgets when parents are at home and controlling the activities (playing games or accessing the internet) children do with gadgets.

Abstract

Excess bilirubin accumulation occurs in 60% of babies born on time and 80% of premature babies in the first week of life, causing the skin and sclera to turn yellow. This condition is called neonatal jaundice. It is important to provide appropriate treatment so that severe complications such as kernicterus and permanent neurological damage can be avoided. This study aims to analyze Midwifery Care for Neonates with Jaundice. This study applied a case study design with a comprehensive approach to midwifery care in one patient. Information was collected through interviews, observations, physical examinations, and documentation studies. The data was then analyzed by following the stages of the midwifery process, which include assessment, diagnosis, intervention, implementation, and evaluation. A case study was conducted on baby A, aged 7 days with a birth weight of 3020 grams, who had jaundice on the face, neck, and chest. The diagnosis was a 7-day-old full-term neonate with physiological jaundice. The intervention was conducted by educating mothers to dry the baby for 10-15 minutes before 10 am and breastfeed as often as possible, 8-12 times a day. Evaluation at the second visit showed that the facial, neck, and chest jaundice was no longer visible, and the body weight increased from 3010 grams to 3030 grams. This case demonstrates the effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions in managing physiological jaundice. An educative approach through adequate breastfeeding and exposure to morning sunlight as natural phototherapy is proven to be safe and easy to do at home.

Abstract

Late-term pregnancy is defined as a pregnancy that has reached 41 weeks and 6 days or more, which includes the risk of oligohydramnios. Proper management of late-term pregnancy is essential through labor induction to reduce the risks of morbidity and mortality. This study aims to analyze Midwifery care for pregnant women with late-term pregnancy and oligohydramnios. This study utilized a case study methodology with a thorough midwifery care approach for one patient. Data collection involved interviews, observations, physical assessments, and documentation reviews. The data were analyzed following the midwifery process steps: assessment, diagnosis, intervention, implementation, and evaluation. The case study was conducted with Mrs. R, who showed no signs of labor. A diagnosis was made of G3P2OO3 at a gestational age of 41-42 weeks, characterized by late-term pregnancy and intrauterine live fetal oligohydramnios. The intervention involved referring the patient to the hospital for labor induction. The evaluation revealed that the cesarean section was successful, and both the mother and baby were healthy after the delivery. This case highlights the significance of early detection and sound decision-making in managing overdue pregnancies to mitigate the risks of complications for both mother and newborn.

Abstract

Effective health management in Islamic boarding schools is crucial to safeguard students’ well-being, particularly in settings with limited healthcare resources. Traditional health monitoring methods are often insufficient for timely interventions. This study evaluates the implementation of the E-Healthy application as a digital solution to optimize health management in Islamic boarding schools. A descriptive study was conducted among 36 students recruited using simple random sampling. The mean perceived ease of use score was 44.3 (SD = 5.0), with 75.0% of students rating the application as easy to use. The median perceived usefulness score was 49.0 (range 38–55), with 88.9% of students agreeing that the application was beneficial for health monitoring. Both outcomes demonstrated statistically significant positive perceptions (p < 0.05, 95% CI). The E-Healthy application is user-friendly and perceived as valuable in supporting student health management. Its integration into Islamic boarding schools has the potential to strengthen health systems in line with WHO digital health priorities and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 3: Good Health and Well-Being). Future research should evaluate long-term health outcomes and scalability across diverse educational institutions.

Abstract

A disaster-response software system has been developed to minimize the risk of missing patients/injured individuals, infants, and children, and to track them during disasters. This study investigates the software's contributions to field use and healthcare personnel's triage experiences. Software has been developed based on contributions of 10 expert senior managers and assessed via Lawshe's technique; the Content Validity Index (CVI) is 0.988. Subsequently, 25 disaster-experienced healthcare workers from Istanbul's 112 Emergency Health Services station evaluated the system through semi-structured, in-depth interviews. Collected qualitative data were coded and analyzed using content analysis in MAXQDA 24. The research is organized into two themes—disaster software system and triage experiences—with subcodes. Findings show that triage depends not only on clinical knowledge but also on environmental conditions, social response, intra-team communication, and psychological factors. The disaster software supports triage by facilitating identification, patient tracking, acceleration of interventions, and data security. Integrated modules—such as QR codes, fingerprint, photo, and location—reduce healthcare personnel's workload and improve data accuracy. However, challenges include inadequate infrastructure, manual data entry burdens, mobile device incompatibility, and a lack of legal regulation. Suggested improvements by participants include integration with MERNİS (Turkey’s central population registry), voice command capability, barcode technology, and DNA-based modules. Overall, digital solutions can critically support triage in disaster settings operating within multidimensional dynamics.

Abstract

Anxiety is a psychological problem often experienced by preoperative patients, especially in cases of breast cancer requiring major surgery such as Modified Radical Mastectomy (MRM). This condition can increase physiological stress, disrupt hemodynamic stability, slow down the healing process, and even affect prognosis. Non-pharmacological spiritual interventions, such as dzikir, are believed to help patients manage anxiety. This study aims to analyze the effect of dzikir on anxiety levels in preoperative MRM patients at Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital in Semarang. A quantitative study with a one-group pre-test post-test design was conducted on 30 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Anxiety levels were measured using the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-42) questionnaire before and after the intervention. Data analysis used a paired t-test with a significance level of 0.05. Patients' anxiety levels before the intervention were in the moderate to severe category, with an average score of 26.4. After receiving dzikir istighfar therapy twice daily over an 8-hour observation period, the average anxiety score decreased to 15.2. The paired t-test showed a significant difference (p = 0.002). Dzikir therapy had a significant effect in reducing the anxiety levels of patients prior to MRM surgery. Dzikir can be used as a complementary intervention in perioperative nursing care, especially in hospitals based on Islamic values.

Abstract

Burnout syndrome is a psychological condition characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment, which can affect the quality of nursing care. Nurses in surgical inpatient wards are at high risk of experiencing burnout due to the high demands of patient care and heavy workload. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between workload level and the incidence of burnout syndrome among nurses in the surgical inpatient ward of Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital, Semarang. This research employed a quantitative method with a cross-sectional design. The study sample consisted of 118 nurses selected using a total sampling technique. The instruments used were the Nursalam workload questionnaire and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) to assess burnout syndrome. Data analysis was conducted using the Chi-Square test at a significance level of p < 0.000. The results showed that most respondents had a moderate workload (87.3%) and experienced a high level of burnout (66.9%). Statistical analysis indicated a significant relationship between workload level and the incidence of burnout syndrome (p = 0.000). Nurses with higher workloads tended to experience more severe burnout than those with lighter workloads. These findings emphasize that workload is an important factor influencing burnout among nurses. Therefore, hospital management is advised to implement workload management strategies, increase the number of nursing staff, and provide psychological support programs to reduce the risk of burnout and improve nurses’ well-being and performance.

Abstract

Low Back Pain (LBP) affected 619 million people globally in 2020, and the number is projected to increase to 843 million by 2050. Among nurses, the prevalence of LBP reaches 72%, with significant risk factors including long working hours, poor posture, and heavy workloads. This condition negatively impacts nurses' well-being, productivity, and the quality of healthcare services. Physiotherapy interventions, particularly core stability exercises, have been proposed as a practical approach to reduce pain and improve functional mobility. This study aimed to examine the effect of core stability exercise on pain intensity and flexibility in nurses with non-specific LBP. A proper experimental study with a pre–post test control group design was conducted. A total of 47 nurses who met the inclusion criteria were recruited using simple random sampling. Pain intensity and flexibility were measured before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the paired sample t-test. Core stability exercise significantly reduced pain intensity (p = 0.000, <0.05) and significantly improved flexibility (p = 0.000, <0.05). These findings indicate that the intervention positively impacted musculoskeletal health among nurses with non-specific LBP. Core stability exercise is an effective intervention for reducing pain and enhancing flexibility in nurses with non-specific LBP. Activating core muscles through exercise promotes vasodilation, improves blood circulation, and increases oxygen and nutrient delivery to myofascial tissue, producing analgesic effects. In addition, coordinated muscle contractions enhance lumbar stability, reduce intervertebral disc pressure, and minimize muscle tension, improving functional flexibility.

Abstract

Body image and psychological stress influence patient well-being in the dermatology clinic. This study analyzes the relationship between body image and psychological stress levels in patients at the Dermatology Clinic of Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital. The study used a cross-sectional design with 100 respondents selected through a total sampling technique. The research instruments were the Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ) subscale questionnaire to measure body image and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) to measure psychological stress. Data analysis used the Pearson correlation test. The results showed that most respondents had a positive body image (55%) and moderate psychological stress (82%). The Pearson test produced a p-value of 0.008 with a correlation coefficient of 0.266, indicating a significant positive relationship. This study concludes that positive body image is associated with lower levels of psychological stress. A holistic approach is needed in dermatological services that encompasses patients' physical and psychological aspects.

Abstract

Lack of sleep can harm the physical, mental, and emotional health, quality of life, cognitive function, and memory function of the elderly. Poor sleep quality can also directly affect health, with the risk of various problems such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, stroke, obesity, heart disease, and several other conditions. Therefore, the need for effective non-pharmacological pain and symptom management strategies during sleep disorders is increasing. One recommended approach is relaxation therapy involving soaking the feet in warm water and jasmine aromatherapy before bedtime. This study aims to evaluate the effects of warm foot baths combined with jasmine aromatherapy on sleep quality and vital signs in older adults with insomnia. Using a case study design, the intervention was given to one participant, an 81-year-old woman diagnosed with moderate insomnia. The participant reported difficulty falling asleep, frequent waking during the night, dissatisfaction with her sleep quality, significant changes in sleep patterns, and insufficient rest. The therapy consisted of warm foot baths with jasmine aromatherapy, performed every night for five consecutive days before bedtime. To assess the effectiveness of the intervention, measurements were taken of changes in the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) score, detailed observations of sleep patterns, and general monitoring of vital signs. The study showed a significant decrease in the ISI score from 19 (moderate insomnia) to 8 (mild insomnia). In addition, participants experienced improved sleep quality, characterized by sleeping through the night without waking up, increased sleep satisfaction, and adequate rest. Vital signs showed stabilization during the intervention period, indicating better physiological relaxation. These findings support using warm foot baths and jasmine aromatherapy as an effective nursing intervention to treat insomnia and improve sleep quality in the elderly.
