Abstract

Body image is an individual’s perception, evaluation, and feelings toward their physical appearance, whether positive or negative. This study was motivated by the increasing public attention to physical appearance and the ideal body shape, which may influence self-confidence and psychological well-being. The purpose of this study was to describe the body image of members of Black Diamond Gym. This study employed a quantitative method with a descriptive approach. The participants consisted of 136 members of Black Diamond Gym Kupang selected through simple random sampling techniques. Data were collected using a body image scale developed based on aspects of body image. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistical tests with IBM SPSS Statistics 26.

Abstract

Stroke is a non-communicable disease that significantly contributes to disability and mortality worldwide, including in Indonesia. It occurs due to impaired blood flow to the brain, causing brain tissue damage that may result in neurological deficits, paralysis, communication problems, and reduced quality of life. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of health education using multimedia in improving stroke management knowledge among elderly individuals. A quantitative approach with a pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design was used. The study involved 33 respondents selected through simple random sampling, and data were analyzed using univariate analysis with IBM SPSS Statistics. Before receiving multimedia-based health education, most respondents had poor knowledge of stroke management, followed by moderate and good knowledge levels. After the intervention, respondents’ knowledge improved, with nearly half categorized as having good knowledge. The findings indicate that multimedia-based health education effectively increases elderly individuals’ understanding of stroke management. Knowledge improvement may be influenced by educational background, information retention, and age-related memory decline. Therefore, multimedia health education is effective in improving stroke management knowledge among elderly individuals at Ketapang Public Health Center.

Abstract

Introduction: The nutritional status of toddlers is an important indicator for assessing the level of public health because it reflects children’s growth and development. Nutritional problems among toddlers remain a major concern, particularly with regard to the weight-for-age (WFA) indicator, which can reflect overall nutritional status. Monitoring nutritional status through Posyandu serves as a strategic effort in the early detection of nutritional problems in the community. Objective: This study aims to determine the nutritional status of toddlers based on the weight-for-age (WFA) indicator at the Melati Posyandu in Majene Regency, West Sulawesi Province, in 2026. Methods: This is a quantitative study with a descriptive design. The study sample consisted of 63 toddlers selected using total sampling. Data were collected from the Maternal and Child Health (KIA) and Growth Monitoring (KMS) records and analyzed univariately using frequency distributions and percentages to describe the characteristics of the respondents and the nutritional status of the toddlers. Results: The results showed that the majority of toddlers were in the 12–24-month age group (47.6%) and were female (63.5%). Based on nutritional status, most toddlers had a normal nutritional status—45 toddlers (71.4%)—while 18 toddlers (28.6%) were undernourished. Conclusion: The nutritional status of toddlers at the Melati Posyandu in Majene Regency is mostly in the normal category; however, there are still toddlers with poor nutritional status who require further attention and intervention through growth monitoring and improved nutrition education for parents.

Abstract

Advancing age leads to a decline in cardiovascular function, which contributes to the high prevalence of hypertension among the elderly; this condition is often accompanied by psychological issues such as anxiety. Unmanaged anxiety can activate the sympathetic nervous system and trigger vasoconstriction of blood vessels, thereby exacerbating hypertension. This descriptive case study aims to examine the application of Slow Stroke Back Massage (SSBM) therapy in reducing anxiety among older adults with hypertension in Room Sadewa 2 at K.R.M.T. Wongsonegoro General Hospital in Semarang. SSBM was applied as a non-pharmacological intervention involving cutaneous stimulation to promote the production of endorphins and serotonin. The results of the case study showed a significant reduction in anxiety levels after three sessions of SSBM therapy, followed by the relief of muscle tension, improved sleep patterns, and the achievement of hemodynamic stability in the patients. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the application of SSBM therapy is effective in reducing anxiety levels while helping to stabilize blood pressure in elderly patients with hypertension. This cutaneous stimulation therapy is recommended for routine implementation by nursing staff as part of comprehensive, humanistic, and self-directed nursing care, both in a hospital setting and as a form of self-care at home.

Abstract

Awareness of implementing balanced nutrition principles among adolescents is influenced by various factors, one of which is nutritional knowledge. Adequate understanding of balanced nutrition can assist adolescents in making appropriate food choices and adopting healthy lifestyle behaviors. This study aimed to determine the relationship between nutritional knowledge and awareness of balanced nutrition practices among students at Kartika 1-2 Private Senior High School, Medan. The study employed a quantitative approach with an analytical observational design using a cross-sectional method. The sample was selected through proportional random sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires that assessed nutritional knowledge and awareness of balanced nutrition practices. The collected data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analyses with the Chi-Square test at a 95% confidence level. The findings revealed that most respondents had good nutritional knowledge and a high level of awareness regarding balanced nutrition practices. Statistical analysis indicated a significant relationship between nutritional knowledge and awareness of balanced nutrition practices among adolescents (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that increased nutritional knowledge contributes to greater awareness among adolescents in applying balanced nutrition principles in their daily lives. Continuous nutrition education programs in schools should be strengthened as a strategy to promote healthy behaviors among adolescents. The results of this study are expected to provide valuable information for developing nutrition education and health promotion programs targeting senior high school students.

Abstract

The implementation of the Electronic Quality Management System (e-SMM) in Pharmaceutical Wholesalers (PBF) has emerged as a strategic approach to improving quality assurance and ensuring compliance with Good Distribution Practice (CDOB) regulations in pharmaceutical distribution. This study aims to analyze the contributions, benefits, and challenges associated with the implementation of e-SMM in PBF through a literature review using a qualitative descriptive approach. The findings reveal that e-SMM significantly improves operational efficiency by digitalizing quality management documents, reducing manual administrative tasks, and facilitating faster access to information. The system also enhances data integrity and traceability through electronic audit trails, enabling accurate monitoring of document revisions and user activities. In addition, automated reminder features support timely calibration of equipment, personnel training, and scheduled quality activities, while integration with warehouse temperature monitoring systems helps maintain product stability and storage compliance. Despite these advantages, the implementation of e-SMM faces several challenges, including substantial initial investment in information technology infrastructure, software validation, cybersecurity measures, and employee training. Organizational readiness and resistance to transitioning from conventional paper-based systems to digital workflows also remain significant barriers. Overall, e-SMM plays a crucial role in strengthening transparent, efficient, and reliable pharmaceutical quality management systems while supporting sustainable regulatory compliance and continuous quality improvement.

Abstract

Introduction: Fibrosarcoma is a rare soft tissue malignancy that may require surgical treatment. Postoperative patients are at risk of acute pain, impaired skin/tissue integrity, and nutritional deficit, which may delay recovery. Structured nursing care is needed to reduce symptoms, prevent wound complications, and improve nutritional tolerance. Method: This article used a descriptive design with a case study approach. The subject was a 40-year-old male patient with a postoperative medical diagnosis of fibrosarcoma. Data were collected through nursing assessment, observation, physical examination, review of supporting examination results, therapy records, nursing implementation, and nursing evaluation over 3 × 24 hours. Results: The assessment identified three main nursing diagnoses: acute pain related to physical injury agents, impaired skin/tissue integrity related to mechanical factors from surgical procedures, and nutritional deficit related to impaired nutrient absorption. Nursing interventions included pain management using lemon aromatherapy and analgesic collaboration, sterile wound care, infection sign monitoring, nutritional management, gastrointestinal function monitoring, and patient-family education. After 3 × 24 hours of care, the pain scale decreased from 6 to 2, the wound appeared dry with well-approximated edges and no pus, redness, edema, or dehiscence, and the patient was able to eat without nausea with oral intake increasing to three-fourths of the meal portion. Conclusion: Structured nursing care in a postoperative fibrosarcoma patient helped reduce pain, improve wound condition, and increase nutritional tolerance. Lemon aromatherapy may be used as a non-pharmacological adjunct to analgesics in suitable patients.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by impaired carbohydrate metabolism and persistent hyperglycemia resulting from the body's inability to regulate insulin secretion effectively. This condition can lead to various long-term complications associated with abnormalities in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism. One of the chronic complications of Diabetes Mellitus is a diabetic foot ulcer. Modern wound care has emerged as a more effective approach than conventional wound management because it maintains a moist wound environment that promotes healing. This study analyzed the effectiveness of modern wound care in promoting the healing of diabetic foot ulcers. This literature review used a systematic review approach based on the PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) framework. The inclusion criteria comprised experimental studies published between 2021 and 2025, written in either Indonesian or English, available as original research articles, and accessible in full-text format. The researchers searched for articles in the ScienceDirect, PubMed, ProQuest, and Google Scholar databases and identified 1,502 articles from ScienceDirect, 1,710 from Google Scholar, 13,555 from ProQuest, and 50 from PubMed. After applying the inclusion criteria, the researchers selected 10 articles for review. The review analyzed these articles by identifying similarities and differences, providing critical perspectives, making comparisons, and summarizing the findings. The literature review found that various types of modern dressings, including silver dressings, hydrocolloid dressings, epidermal growth factor-loaded carboxymethylcellulose (EGF-CMC) hydrogel, calcium alginate ZnO nanoparticles, and umbilical cord blood platelet lysate (UCB-PL) gel, effectively promote the healing of diabetic foot ulcers.
