Abstract

Patients with schizophrenia often exhibited behaviors such as social withdrawal, hypervigilance, difficulty in management, and vulnerability to anxiety and depression. Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR), as a muscle relaxation technique, had been shown in stress management programs to alleviate symptoms of anxiety, depression, and insomnia. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) on depression levels among patients with schizophrenia at Panti Griya Medika. This study employed a quasi-experimental design using a pretest–posttest without a control group approach. The sample consisted of 30 subjects, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire and the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS), which consists of 17 items to assess the severity of depression. Data analysis was conducted using the paired t-test. Clinically, there was a decrease in depression scores by 2.1 points following the administration of PMR. However, statistically, this reduction from 12.20 to 10.10 did not show a significant effect; therefore, the effectiveness of PMR therapy in reducing depression in schizophrenia patients could not be strongly validated through this study. It is therefore recommended that PMR be implemented regularly as a complementary non-pharmacological intervention in the management of depression among patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract

HIV/AIDS remains a major health concern among adolescents, with promiscuous sexual behavior identified as a key factor contributing to the rising number of cases. This study aims to examine the correlation between promiscuous sexual behavior and HIV transmission through a review of various scientific sources. A scoping review method was used, as it allows for broad and systematic mapping of the literature particularly on complex topics that have not been extensively studied. Articles were obtained from the Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect databases, with publication years ranging from 2019 to 2025. The keywords used included “Pathophysiology,” “HIV,” “Free Sex,” and “Student.” A total of eight relevant articles were selected for analysis. The results showed that unprotected casual sex is the primary cause of HIV transmission, especially among university students. A lack of understanding about HIV and its modes of transmission contributes to high infection rates. In addition, students infected with HIV face significant psychosocial impacts. Therefore, education about the risks of promiscuous sexual behavior and the provision of psychosocial support are essential to reducing stigma and improving quality of life. Further research is needed to enhance understanding of the mechanisms of HIV transmission through risky sexual behavior.

Abstract

Nurses play a vital role in maintaining patient safety as they are at the frontline of healthcare services. Patient safety culture needs to be measured as an indicator of service quality. This study aimed to describe the patient safety culture among nurses at the Research Partner Hospital. This study was conducted at a Type C General Hospital located in Sukoharjo, using a descriptive quantitative method and a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 167 nurses selected through purposive sampling, with data collected via the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPSC) questionnaire. The results showed that the patient safety culture was categorized as "medium" (55,28%), reflecting a fairly good understanding however, it requires for safe services to meet a high expectation. Strong dimensions included teamwork within units (80,08%) and organizational learning, continuous improvement (83,63%). However, weak areas included open communication (47,70%), staffing (19,16%), patient handoffs (47,15%), and non-punitive responses to errors (26,74%). Therefore, the hospital needs to improve these weak aspects through training, enhanced communication, and stronger management support.

Abstract

Stroke often causes aphasia, a language disorder that hinders verbal and nonverbal communication and reduces the quality of life of patients. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of face expression exercises and oral motor exercises in improving face symmetry and communication skills in patients with aphasia stroke. A case study was conducted on two non-hemorrhagic stroke patients with aphasia at Dr. Soehadi Prijonegoro General Hospital in Sragen. The intervention was carried out for three consecutive days, twice a day, in the form of a combination of face expression and oral motor exercises using a mirror. The evaluation was conducted using the Sunnybrook Face Grading System and observation of oral motor function. The results showed an increase in the Sunnybrook score from 40 (grade IV, moderate to severe impairment) to 55 (grade III, mild to moderate) in the first subject, and from 47 (grade III, mild-moderate) to 65 (grade II, near normal) in the second subject. Both experienced an increase in face symmetry, tongue and lip muscle strength, and the ability to pronounce simple words. Face expression exercises and oral motor exercises proved to be effective as a simple, safe, and low-cost intervention to support communication recovery in stroke patients with aphasia.

Abstract

Poor sleep quality cloud disrupt the sleep-wake rhythm, particularly affecting brain function and potentially leading to various health problems. The impact of inadequate sleep encompasses both physiological and psychological disturbances, including fatigue, physical weakness, reduced physical activity, and weakened immune function. This study aimed to raise awareness among students, particularly in academic settings, about the importance of maintaining high-quality sleep in support of their mental health. The research employed a descriptive quantitative design using a questionnaire-based survey, with a random sampling technique. The frequency distribution results showed that 21,5% of subjects exhibited healthy sleep patterns, while the remaining 78,5% were categorized as having suboptimal sleep patterns. Self-harm tendencies were divided into three categories: no self-harm (92,5%), mild self-harm (5,4%), and severe self-harm (2,2%). Correlation analysis using the Spearman rank test indicated a significant positive relationship between sleep quality and self-harm tendencies (r = 0,353; p-value = 0,001). Therefore, final-year students working on their theses are advised to manage their time more effectively and pay attention to both the duration and quality of their sleep as a preventive measure against sleep disturbances. An imbalanced sleep pattern can trigger negative emotional responses and reduce an individual’s ability to regulate emotions.

Abstract

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a respiratory condition that causes difficulty breathing due to long-term airway obstruction. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between age, nutritional status, medical history, knowledge, smoking status, and use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) on the risk of COPD in Barru PLTU employees. This study was a quantitative analytical study with a cross-sectional design. The sample of this study was part of the employees at PT. Indonesia Power (IP) PLTU Barru Unit in the ASH Yard (coal management), Coal Yard (boiler), Cleaning Service Unit, and Security sections totaling 80 employees. Sampling used the simple random sampling method. The collected data were processed and presented in the form of descriptive, narrative or explanatory tables using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25 program. The analysis used was univariate and bivariate using the Chi-square test. There was a relationship between age (p-value <0,001), nutritional status (p-value <0,001), knowledge (p-value <0,001) and use of PPE (p-value <0,001) on the risk of COPD in Barru PLTU employees and there was no relationship between medical history (p-value = 0,079) and smoking status (p-value = 0,491) on the risk of COPD in Barru PLTU employees. It was recommended that employees pay attention to the SOP for using PPE to prevent the risk of COPD and employees aged ≥ 40 years who are at risk are expected to always pay attention to their body's immunity.

Abstract

Factors associated with the incidence of pneumonia include age, sex, low birth weight, immunization status, breastfeeding practices, vitamin A supplementation, nutritional status, residential density, housing characteristics, ventilation, floor type, lighting, humidity, type of cooking fuel, family income, maternal knowledge, as well as maternal factors such as education, age, and exposure to cigarette smoke. This study aimed to determine the relationship between parental smoking behavior and the incidence of pneumonia in children. A quantitative correlational design with a cross-sectional approach was used. The study involved 32 subjects selected through purposive sampling. The results showed that most parents had light smoking behavior (59,3%), and the majority of children did not experience pneumonia (71,9%). A significant relationship was found between parental smoking behavior and the incidence of pneumonia in children, with a Spearman Rank significance value of p = 0,008 (p-value < 0,05). It was important for parents to avoid smoking around children and to create a smoke-free home environment in order to prevent respiratory infections in children.

Abstract

Hypertension was a health problem frequently encountered in society and was known as a “silent killer” because it showed no symptoms but could lead to serious complications such as stroke, kidney failure, and heart disease. One important effort in controlling hypertension was increasing patient knowledge. However, health education delivered without attractive media was often less effective. This study aimed to determine the effect of optimizing health e-leaflet educational media on increasing the knowledge of hypertension patients at the Pancoran Community Health Center. The research method was quantitative with a quasi-experimental design using a pretest–posttest with a non-equivalent control group approach. A total of 116 subjects were involved and divided into two groups: an experimental group that received education using health e-leaflets and a control group that did not receive educational media. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed univariately and bivariately using the Mann–Whitney U test. The results showed a significant difference in knowledge between the experimental and control groups with a p-value < 0,001. It was concluded that health e-leaflet educational media had a significant effect on increasing the knowledge of hypertension patients at the Pancoran Community Health Center. Health e-leaflet media could be used as an alternative approach for health education in the digital era.

Abstract

Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) was one of the main health problems in Indonesia and remained a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, especially among vulnerable groups. Various risk factors such as age, gender, environmental conditions, and level of public knowledge were known to influence the prevalence of this disease. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the level of community knowledge and ARI prevention efforts in the working area of Tarumajaya Public Health Center, Bekasi Regency. This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. A total of 85 subjects were selected using a purposive sampling method. The research instrument was a questionnaire whose validity and reliability had been tested. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test. The results showed a significant relationship between knowledge level and ARI prevention efforts (p-value < 0,0001). Subjects with higher levels of knowledge tended to perform better preventive behaviors. These findings indicated that strategic efforts from health workers were needed to improve public awareness and knowledge through sustainable promotive and preventive programs. In conclusion, knowledge was associated with ARI preventive behavior; therefore, educational interventions played a key role in controlling this disease, especially in high-incidence areas such as the Tarumajaya Public Health Center.

Abstract

The first week for postpartum mothers is a period of adjustment to the role and responsibilities of mothers after giving birth. Mothers who are unable to adapt well during the postpartum period are susceptible to experiencing psychological disorders, one of which is baby blues syndrome. This study aimed to determine the relationship between age and parity with baby blues syndrome at the Teling Atas Community Health Center in Manado. The research method was observational analytic, with a cross-sectional approach. Samples were taken by accidental sampling of a sample of 60 postnatal mothers who met the inclusion criteria. Data were collected using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale/EPDS questionnaire and data analysis using Chi-square statistical tests. The results of the study showed that the majority of mothers were 20-35 years old, as many as 55 (91,7%), the highest parity was primipara, as many as 38 people (63,3%). There was a relationship between age (p-value<0,005 and parity (p-value<0,001) with baby blues syndrome at the Teling Atas Manado Health Center. It is recommended that health workers be more active in increasing counseling for pregnant women in preparation for becoming mothers so that they can adapt well after giving birth.
