Abstract

Most maternity mothers feel pain during labor; the causes of pain in Indonesia is 16% because they experience complications, and 63% because they did not get information on childbirth preparation. Pain arises due to increased activity of the sympathetic nervous system and results in blood pressure and pulse. A midwife cannot provide analgetic in reducing pain, so complementary treatments are very helpful, one of which is endorphins massage. Massage therapy can systematically affect the skin surface, soft tissues, muscles, and ligaments. It can release of endorphin hormone that can cause muscle relaxation. This study aims to determine endorphin massage's effect on pain intensity in the first stage of active labor at Public Health Center Mampang Prapatan District, South Jakarta. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest type of control group. This type involved two groups of subjects, one was treated (experimental group) with 15 samples, and the other was not treated (control group) with 15 samples. The total sample is 30 respondents. The research instrument used an observation sheet to measure pain intensity using the FLACC scale (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability). Data analysis used the Wilcoxon signed rank test and the Mann-Whitney test. Based on the results of the Mann-Whitney test, it shows that the Assign value sig. (2-tailed) of 0.000. This means that 0,000 < 0,05, there is a significant difference between the pain intensity of the experimental group that was given endorphin massage and the control group that was not treated. There is a difference between the pain intensity in the first stage of active labor at Public Health Center Mampang Prapatan, South Jakarta. It is recommended that services apply non-pharmacological pain control methods of endorphin massage in labor.

Abstract

Farmers have heavy work demands, so farmers are at risk of injury and work-related illnesses such as mental stress disorder. This study analyzed the relationship between self-efficacy and work stress in tobacco farmers. The research design used is the analytic correlation with a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique uses probability sampling with cluster sampling. The sample for this research is tobacco farmers who are members of the farmers' group, with a sample size of 100 respondents. The instrument used in this study was the GSE (General Self-efficacy) Questionnaire to measure self-efficacy in tobacco farmers. The DASS 42 Questionnaire (Depression, Anxiety, Stress, Scale) was used to measure work stress—data analysis using the Pearson test correlation test. The average tobacco farmer has high Self-Efficacy and low work stress. The results of the Pearson test, namely the p-value of 0.001 with a correlation value of -0.419, show a relationship between self-efficacy and work stress with a moderate correlation level with a negative correlation direction. Nurses are expected to carry out counseling activities for tobacco farmers to prevent work stress and increase self-efficacy in tobacco farmers.

Abstract

Some of the problems that are quite often encountered by midwives during childbirth assistance are some complications during childbirth, including power problems, the mother's mistakes in the pushing process, and problems with improper breathing regulation which can cause a long labor process, so preventive measures can be increased such as pregnancy exercise which can show better clinical results or clinical outcomes at the time of delivery. This study aims to determine the effect of pregnancy exercise on clinical outcomes of childbirth at the Pratama Ratna Komala Clinic, Bekasi Regency, in 2022. This study used a non-parametric testing method with the Mann-Whitney method, totaling 20 respondents with 10 respondents participating in pregnancy exercise and 10 respondents did not participating in pregnancy exercise. The results of differences in clinical outcome between the experimental and control group showed that the Asymp Sig. (2-tailed) < 0.05 so that H0 was rejected which means that there is an effect of pregnancy exercise on clinical outcomes of childbirth. Pregnancy exercise can reduce pain and speed up the delivery process. It is hoped that the Pratama Ratna Komala Bekasi Clinic will continue to socialize pregnancy exercises to pregnant women to continue doing pregnancy exercises regularly. Midwives need to provide health counseling to pregnant women regarding the benefit of pregnancy exercise.

Abstract

Students as academic individuals cannot be separated from stress in everyday life. Academic activities, especially assignments and external demands on oneself, can create stress among female students. Perceived stress can cause the pituitary to release ACTH (Adrenocorticotropic Hormone), increasing cortisol levels and disrupting the menstrual cycle. This study aims to determine the relationship between stress and the menstrual cycle in female students at the Faculty of Health Sciences, Universitas Nasional. The method used is quantitative with an analytical design and uses a cross-sectional design. The sampling technique used random sampling. The sample in this study was 150 respondents. The PSS-10 questionnaire and menstrual cycle questionnaire were used to collect data. Out of the 150 respondents, there were 7 respondents (4.7%), female students of the Faculty of Health Sciences, Universitas Nasional, who experienced everyday stress and 45 respondents (30%) experienced mild stress, and 97 respondents experienced moderate stress (64.7%), 1 respondent (0.7%) experienced severe stress, and out of 150 respondents there were 114 respondents (76%), female students of the Faculty of Health Sciences, Universitas Nasional experienced normal menstruation and 36 respondents (24%) experienced abnormal menstruation. There is no significant relationship between stress levels and menstruation in female students at the Faculty of Health Sciences, Universitas National, with p=0.811. Researchers suggest that female students who experience stress and menstrual disorders can relax by doing Yoga.

Abstract

The health of pregnant women is an important aspect to pay attention to throughout the gestation period for unexpected complications to occur. Pregnancy visits play an important role in detecting any complications during pregnancy early. Many factors influence the mother in carrying out a pregnancy visit (ANC). This study aimed to analyze the factors that influence pregnancy visits for the health of the mother and fetus. This type of research is analytic with a cross-sectional. The study population was third-trimester pregnant women at the Langsa Baro Public Health Center. The sampling technique uses the total population, so the number of samples is 83 people. Data analysis used the chi-square and multiple logistic regression. The results showed that knowledge (sig. 0.002), attitude (sig. 0.001), family support (sig. 0.000), and the role of health workers (sig. 0.000) had a significant relationship with pregnancy visits. The multivariate results show that the role of health workers has the most influence on pregnancy visits by pregnant women.

Abstract

Post-stroke patients often have sequelae that are difficult to avoid. One of the impacts that can occur after a stroke is the onset of cognitive impairment, physical disability, and even death due to the extent of brain damage that occurs. Another impact of stroke is Fatigue Post Stroke (FPS), where most stroke patients experience fatigue, and this condition can persist even though other symptoms caused by stroke have improved. This literature review aims to determine the appropriate management of fatigue after a stroke. The method in this study is a literature review by collecting published literature from databases such as ResearchGate, Google Scholar, and PLOS using Boolean stroke management and post-stroke fatigue. The literature search focused on articles related to fatigue in stroke patients. Both used RCT (Randomized Control Trial) design, Quasi Experiment, Qualitative study, and Survey study from the year (2015-2022).  Based on the results of data extraction from the author, two themes can be taken by the author, post-stroke patients who experience fatigue and fatigue management in stroke. The update in this literature review is the manifestation of fatigue conditions that, on average, will be experienced by stroke patients. If not handled properly, it will have a worse impact physically and psychologically, which can certainly interfere with the recovery process. So, it is necessary to appropriately manage both physical exercise and psychological interventions following the fatigue conditions of post-stroke patients. We recommend that in health services, nurses pay more attention to patient responses related to fatigue to provide appropriate nursing interventions and increase patients' desire to undergo rehabilitation.

Abstract

Patient safety is a global issue. Nurses are expected to enhance their abilities and skills in providing quality and safe healthcare to patients. Case-based reflection is one effective method to improve nurses' understanding of complex clinical situations and enhance their performance in addressing challenges in clinical practice. This study aims to explore implementing case discussion reflection to improve nurse professionalism. The method used in this study was a literature review through electronic databases, including ProQuest, Science Direct, PubMed, and Google Scholar. Inclusion criteria for the literature review process were national and international journals discussing the implementation of case-based reflection in hospitals, nursing professionalism, articles published in the last five years (2018-2022), articles written in Indonesian or English, full-text journal articles, and open access. The electronic database search through ProQuest, Science Direct, PubMed, and Google Scholar yielded 85 articles. After abstract screening and exclusion of articles published before 2018, duplicates/same journals, and irrelevant topics, 21 articles remained. Further screening of all articles resulted in 6 articles that will be reviewed for data extraction. The review findings indicate that through case-based reflection, nurses can expand their knowledge and skills in identifying, evaluating, and managing patient care more effectively. This can positively impact healthcare quality, patient safety, and patient satisfaction with the services provided. Therefore, the implementation of case-based reflection is crucial in enhancing nursing professionalism.

Abstract

Indonesia is a country with a low level of participation in routine health checks, one of which is influenced by gender issues. An independent survey involving 9,612 respondents from all over Indonesia stated that 70% of Indonesians had never done a blood test. Housewives are considered unemployed, and they are considered to have no behavioral strength to decide independently about their health needs. This research aims to analyze the determinants of health behavior that influence housewives for routine monitoring of blood glucose, uric acid, and cholesterol level. This research method is an observational correlation, with a cross-sectional approach where researchers use questionnaires to 22 respondents (housewives) using purposive sampling. The results indicate that the support of people around is significant to the behavior of routine monitoring of blood glucose, uric acid, and cholesterol levels in housewives (p= 0.035; p<0.05). Meanwhile, attitude towards and ease of access is insignificant (p>0.05). The support of people around is crucial in fostering a consistent habit of monitoring blood glucose, uric acid, and cholesterol levels among housewives.

Abstract

The fulfillment of sexual needs is one of the physiological needs, no exception for prisoners. Deprived of everyday sex life, prisoners will result in sexual behavior deviation, where the distribution of sexual desire is sublimated in various abnormal ways. It is necessary to consider the need for the implementation of mechanisms for providing access to sexual needs in prison to prevent the occurrence of sexual irregularities in male prisoners, which in this case, will also protect the reproductive health of the legal partner/wife of the prisoner. This study aims to know the relationship between the fulfillment of sexual needs and sexual behavior deviation in male prisoners at second-class prisons in Bondowoso. This research uses a correlational analytical research design. Seventy-three respondents following this study and collected by purposive sampling. Data was collected using a questionnaire and processed with the Spearman rank test. The results of the analysis of the fulfillment of sexual needs are mostly not good, which is 66 people (90,4%), and sexual behavior is deviant mainly, which is 54 people (74%). The correlation coefficient analysis shows the value of fulfillment of sexual needs is 1.000 and sexual behavior deviation is 0.549. A significant linear relationship exists between the sexual need fulfillment variable and the sexual behavior deviation variable (p=0.000).  Midwives must care and be able to provide counseling and education about risky sexual behavior to vulnerable groups, including prisoners. This activity aims to break the chain of transmission of STIs and HIV/AIDS due to deviant sexual behavior.
