<![CDATA[Drug logistics planning in primary healthcare centers remains a major challenge in ensuring medicine availability and continuity of health services. Inadequate planning often leads to stockouts, overstock, and mismatches between drug supply and patient needs. This study aimed to analyze the implementation of drug logistics planning management at Pakuan Baru Public Health Center, Jambi City. This research used a qualitative observational design with a case study approach. The population consisted of all personnel involved in drug logistics planning, while seven informants were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, observation checklists, and document review of LPLPO, stock cards, and planning reports. Data analysis employed the Miles and Huberman model through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing with triangulation techniques. The results showed that drug planning was conducted through stages of drug selection, consumption compilation, calculation of drug needs, projection, and procurement adjustment based on LPLPO data, National Formulary, and consumption methods. However, several obstacles were identified, including distribution delays, mismatches between proposed and received drugs, limited budgets, and recurring stock shortages. In conclusion, drug logistics planning management at the health center has generally followed national guidelines, but improvements in data based planning, distribution systems, and monitoring are still required to optimize drug availability and service continuity.]]>

<![CDATA[Pending BPJS Kesehatan claims remain a significant obstacle to hospital financing as they can disrupt cash flow and service continuity. This study aims to analyze the factors causing pending BPJS Kesehatan claims for inpatient services at Waled Regional Hospital in the third quarter of 2025. The study used a descriptive quantitative design with a retrospective cross-sectional approach. The population and sample consisted of 908 pending claim files using a total sampling technique. The research instrument was a checklist, while data analysis was conducted descriptively using frequency distribution and percentages. The results showed that the most common cause of pending claims was the coding aspect at 41.9%, followed by the medical aspect at 35.0% and the administrative aspect at 23.1%. In the administrative aspect, the most dominant problem was the mismatch of care classes. In the medical aspect, the main cause was neonatal asphyxia that did not meet the TKMKB criteria. In the coding aspect, the most common problem was inaccurate diagnosis codes or those that needed to be adjusted to clinical data based on verification BPJS. In conclusion, pending claims at Waled Regional Hospital are multidimensional and interrelated, thus requiring strengthening clinical documentation, coding accuracy, and integrated administrative verification.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with anemia among pregnant women in the working area of Kapau Public Health Center, Agam Regency, Indonesia, in 2022. The study employed a quantitative analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 126 third-trimester pregnant women were selected using simple random sampling from the population of pregnant women attending antenatal care services. Data were collected through structured questionnaires assessing knowledge, educational level, family income, and adherence to iron (Fe) tablet consumption, while anemia status was determined based on hemoglobin levels recorded in maternal health books. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test with a 95% confidence level (α = 0.05). The findings revealed significant associations between maternal knowledge and anemia incidence (p < 0.05), as well as between adherence to Fe tablet consumption and anemia incidence (p < 0.05). In contrast, educational level and family income were not significantly associated with anemia among pregnant women (p > 0.05). These results indicate that behavioral factors, particularly knowledge and compliance with iron supplementation, play a more important role in preventing anemia than sociodemographic factors. In conclusion, improving maternal knowledge and strengthening adherence to iron tablet consumption are essential strategies to reduce anemia among pregnant women. Health promotion and continuous monitoring by healthcare providers are recommended to improve maternal health outcomes.]]>

<![CDATA[The use of digital health services through the Mobile JKN application has become an important part of the transformation of health services in the digital era. However, the use of the Mobile JKN application in the community is still not optimal. This study aims to analyze the relationship between perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitudes toward use, and intention to use with the use of the Mobile JKN application. This study used a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population was JKN participants in the Rupit Community Health Center working area with a sample of 96 respondents selected using an accidental sampling technique. The research instrument used a structured questionnaire, while data analysis was carried out using the chi-square test and the calculation of the Prevalence Ratio (PR). The results showed a significant relationship between perceived usefulness (p = 0.045; PR = 2.02), perceived ease of use (p = 0.000; PR = 3.36), attitudes toward use (p = 0.017; PR = 3.31), and intention to use (p = 0.027; PR = 2.14) with the use of the Mobile JKN application. Perceived ease of use was the factor with the greatest risk value for not using the application. The conclusion of this study is that factors in the Technology Acceptance Model are related to the use of the Mobile JKN application, so that increasing ease, benefits, positive attitudes, and usage intentions need to be strengthened to increase sustainable use of the application.]]>

<![CDATA[Diarrhea is a public health problem that remains a burden in Indonesia, including in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) Province, with fluctuating incidence patterns every year. A spatial approach is needed to understand the distribution of cases and variations between regions. This study aims to map the spatial distribution of diarrhea cases and describe regional patterns based on population density and the percentage of open defecation (BABS) in East Nusa Tenggara Province in 2021–2023. This study is an ecological study with a cross-sectional approach using secondary data from the NTT Provincial Health Profile in 2021–2023. The unit of analysis is 22 districts/cities. The dependent variable is the number of diarrhea cases, while the independent variables include population density and the percentage of open defecation. Spatial distribution was carried out using QGIS version 3.28 through visualization of centroid maps and bivariate maps. The number of diarrhea cases in NTT during the 2021–2023 period showed a fluctuating pattern, with an increase in 2022 and a slight decrease in 2023. The distribution of cases was uneven across regions, with several districts such as East Sumba and South Central Timor showing high numbers of cases. Bivariate mapping results showed no consistent pattern between population density, the percentage of open defecation, and the number of diarrhea cases. The distribution of diarrhea cases in NTT showed a pattern that varied across regions and was not always in line with population density or the percentage of open defecation. This indicates that the incidence of diarrhea is multifactorial and influenced by various other factors at the regional level.]]>

<![CDATA[Mental disorders, especially schizophrenia, are still a mental health problem with a high prevalence in Indonesia, including in East Kalimantan, with one of the main symptoms being sensory perception disorders of auditory hallucinations that can interfere with psychosocial functions and the patient's ability to control themselves. This scientific paper aims to analyze the effectiveness of an innovative intervention in the form of free painting therapy with totebag media as a non-pharmacological approach in reducing the signs and symptoms of auditory hallucinations. The method used is an analysis of nursing clinical practice through a nursing process approach, with measurement of the level of auditory hallucinations using the Auditory Hallucination Rating Scale (AHRS) 11-item questionnaire which was carried out three times during three free painting therapy interventions. The evaluation results showed a significant decrease in the auditory hallucination score, from an initial score of 33 before the intervention to 7 after the entire series of interventions were given, which was characterized by a reduction in the frequency, duration, and intensity of hallucinations and an increase in the patient's ability to control and divert attention from hallucinations. Free-form painting therapy using tote bags is effective as a non-pharmacological nursing intervention in reducing the intensity of auditory hallucinations and can be used as an alternative activity therapy in psychiatric nursing practice.]]>

<![CDATA[Absorbable sutures are a type of suture material that undergo degradation and are gradually absorbed by body tissues over a certain period, eliminating the need for manual removal. To provide an understanding of the absorption characteristics of absorbable sutures, which is essential for clinicians in selecting the most appropriate material for each oral surgical procedure. This study is a qualitative research in the form of a literature review using secondary data collected in April 2026 from three scientific databases: PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus. Articles were retrieved from various online scientific journal sources using the keywords “absorbable sutures,” “absorption rate,” “oral surgery,” and “dental surgery sutures.” The absorption rate of absorbable sutures is a crucial factor influencing wound healing outcomes in oral surgical procedures. Unlike other body tissues, the oral cavity has a unique and more aggressive environment, characterized by high moisture due to saliva, the presence of various enzymes (proteases and esterases), fluctuations in pH and temperature, and a high level of microbial colonization. Fast-absorbing sutures, such as polyglactin, are suitable for mucosal tissues as they reduce inflammatory reactions and improve patient comfort. However, suture selection must still be tailored to the wound condition and the required tissue strength.]]>
