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

Anemia in pregnant women is a global and national problem that can increase the risk of maternal and infant morbidity and mortality. Anemia in pregnancy is a decrease in the capacity of blood to carry oxygen caused by a decrease in the number of red blood cells or a reduced hemoglobin concentration in the blood circulation. This study aims to analyze midwifery care in pregnant women with mild anemia. This study used a case study design with a comprehensive midwifery care approach in one patient. Data were collected through interviews, observations, physical examinations, and documentation studies. Data were analyzed using the stages of the midwifery process, which include assessment, diagnosis, intervention, implementation, and evaluation. The case study was conducted on Mrs. FF, who had a hemoglobin level of 10.2 gr/dL. The diagnosis was made G1P0000, gestational age 29-30 weeks, with mild anemia of an intrauterine live fetus. The intervention was carried out by educating about the importance of iron-rich nutrition, giving oral supplementation according to the recommended dose, and monitoring hemoglobin levels. The evaluation showed an increase in hemoglobin level to 11.2 gl/Dl after 8 weeks of intervention, with clinical improvement. This case demonstrates the importance of early detection of anemia in pregnancy and appropriate management through education, supplementation, and regular monitoring. A collaborative approach between health workers and pregnant women is essential to prevent anemia-related maternal and fetal complications.

Abstract

Low back pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder experienced during pregnancy, with a prevalence ranging from 30% to 78% in regions such as the United States, Europe, and Africa. Approximately one-third of affected individuals experience low back pain that leads to decreased productivity and reduced quality of life. An increased body weight of 11–12 kg, along with hormonal and biomechanical changes during pregnancy, contributes to a higher risk of pain in the back, pelvis, and other musculoskeletal areas. Given the potential impact of such complications during pregnancy, health policymakers should place greater emphasis on addressing this issue. In addition, public education on the importance of maternal health, coupled with timely diagnosis and intervention efforts, plays a crucial role in reducing pregnancy complications. This study aims to provide midwifery care to a third-trimester pregnant woman with complaints of low back pain through a case study of Mrs. N.A. (G3P2002, 28 weeks gestation). Data were collected through interviews, observation, physical examination, and documentation review. Diagnoses were made based on subjective and objective findings, and interventions were implemented through health education and pregnancy gymnastics as a promotive and preventive approach to improving maternal well-being. The evaluation results showed a significant improvement in the client's lower back pain after the intervention. The client reported decreased pain intensity to the point where it no longer interfered with daily activities, indicating that the intervention was effective and aligned with the previously planned objectives and success indicators. It is essential to provide follow-up education and regular evaluations in midwifery practice to ensure that similar complaints do not recur or develop into more serious issues.

Abstract

Breech presentation is an abnormal fetal position in which the buttocks or feet are located at the lower part near the birth canal, while the head is positioned above. This condition occurs in 3-4% of pregnancies and can increase the risk of delivery complications. The knee chest position is a non-invasive intervention that can help change the fetal position from breech to vertex (head down) through gravitational mechanisms and changes in pelvic space. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the knee chest position in changing fetal position from breech presentation to vertex presentation in third-trimester pregnancy. This study used a case study approach with documentation of SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan). The research subject was Mrs. LA at 32-33 weeks of gestational age, diagnosed with breech presentation. The knee chest position intervention was performed thrice daily for 15 minutes over 2 weeks with regular evaluations. After 2 weeks of knee chest position intervention, there was a change in fetal position from breech presentation to vertex presentation. Ultrasonographic evaluation showed successful fetal rotation without complications in either the mother or fetus. This study concludes that the knee chest position proved effective as a non-invasive intervention for managing breech presentation in third-trimester pregnancy. This research adds scientific evidence regarding the effectiveness of the knee chest position as a conservative management alternative before considering other medical interventions.

Abstract

Atopic dermatitis, or atopic eczema, is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by itchy red skin lesions, xerosis, ichthyosis, and skin pain. Among the social impacts of atopic dermatitis are difficulty and isolation in relationships and social stigmatization. In addition, atopic dermatitis is known to cause sleep disturbances, anxiety, hyperactivity, and depression. This study aims to provide midwifery care in cases of atopic dermatitis experienced by pregnant women in the third trimester. The case study design in this study uses an in-depth approach to the subjective mother A, age 31 years, G3P1011, gestational age 32-33 weeks, who comes with complaints of itching on the body with skin conditions experiencing dryness and scaling, which causes the skin surface to feel rough. Data was collected through interviews, observation, physical examination, and documentation study. The examination was carried out through inspection and palpation of the skin area experiencing complaints, along with an assessment of the skin condition. Interviews regarding the history of allergies and precipitating factors reinforced the initial diagnosis. The diagnosis made was atopic dermatitis in pregnant women in the third trimester with complaints of pruritic and dry skin. Midwifery interventions were carried out through observation and education. Evaluation results showed a decrease in itching complaints and improved skin condition. This study emphasizes the importance of early detection of skin dryness and a holistic approach in supporting the comfort and skin health of pregnant women.

Abstract

Adolescence is a transitional period that experiences a variety of significant changes. The existence of various pressures and challenges can cause adolescents to experience negative feelings which ultimately choose to engage in self harm behavior. There are several factors that cause self harm behavior.  The purpose of this study is to gain an in-depth understanding of the behavior and forms of self harm and the factors that cause self harm. The study was conducted using Systematic Literature Review (SLR) through the PRISMA method (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis). The keywords used are self harm behavior, factors causing self harm, obtained 10 journal articles that match the inclusion criteria. Self harm behavior is done as an emotional response that cannot be expressed. It can take the form of self-mutilation, scratching, head banging, cutting, burning, drug abuse, tattooing and piercing, and even self-poisoning. Factors that cause self-harm behavior can be divided into two types, namely internal factors (Loneliness, Feelings of anxiety, Anger and guilt, Stress and depression, Communication problems, Low self-esteem, No self-confidence, Bipolar disorder and psychosocial problems, Parenting, Hatred, Gender, Skin color, Personality, Trauma, Loss, Genetics, Feeling like a failure, Parental neglect, Putting others first, Sadness), and external factors (Bullying, Social failure, Social and economic status, Sexual abuse victim, Internet, media, and cell phone use, Rejection from peers). Self harm behavior needs immediate prevention and management because if it is not treated immediately it will lead to suicide. There are 26 factors that cause self harm behavior.

Abstract

Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) is a critical predictor of future stroke, yet it is frequently underrecognized due to its transient and often mild neurological manifestations. This literature review aims to synthesize clinical and technological approaches for early screening and detection of TIA, emphasizing strategies aligned with timely intervention and stroke prevention. A systematic search was conducted across PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar, identifying 94 articles. Following PRISMA guidelines, 10 studies were selected based on inclusion criteria related to early detection, emergency response, and digital health interventions. The analysis yielded three major themes: (1) the clinical relevance of early recognition of subtle neurological symptoms, (2) the role of emergency medical services and prehospital screening tools, and (3) the emergence of mobile health (mHealth) and telemedicine platforms in supporting early TIA detection. Findings indicate that while TIA symptoms are transient, they signal a significant risk of subsequent stroke, underscoring the need for prompt and accurate assessment. Technological innovations such as mobile applications and teleconsultation enhance traditional diagnostic methods but face challenges in implementation, including disparities in digital access and limited public awareness. In conclusion, integrating clinical vigilance with scalable technological solutions holds promise for improving early TIA detection, particularly in resource limited or remote settings. It is recommended that health systems invest in training emergency responders and adopt validated digital tools into prehospital protocols. Future research should focus on clinical validation and real-world integration of mHealth platforms to support global stroke prevention efforts.

Abstract

Pregnancy anemia is a condition where the hemoglobin level in the blood falls below normal due to a decrease in the number of erythrocytes or hemoglobin, thereby reducing the blood's ability to carry oxygen to the vital organs of the mother and fetus. The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a combination of iron (Fe) tablets and dates in addressing anemia. This research uses a case study approach, which aims to explore a phenomenon in depth within clearly defined boundaries. Data were comprehensively collected from various sources and documented using the SOAP method (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan), providing a complete understanding of the case involving the respondent. The main focus of this study is on the phenomena arising from complaints and examination results during the period of midwifery care. The study was conducted on Mrs. DN at 38 weeks of gestation with moderate anemia, and the intervention provided consisted of the consumption of Fe tablets and 7 dates per day for 14 days. The results of the 2-week intervention showed successful outcomes for moderate pregnancy anemia, with an increase in hemoglobin levels from 9.2 g% to 9.9 g%. The case analysis established is Mrs. DN at 38 weeks of gestation with moderate anemia. The conclusion of this study is that the combination of Fe tablets and 7 dates per day for 14 days is effective as an intervention for managing moderate pregnancy anemia.

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.
