Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DMT2) is a chronic metabolic disease with a growing prevalence both globally and nationally. According to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF, 2021), there were 537 million people living with diabetes worldwide, and this number is projected to increase to 643 million by 2030. In Indonesia, the prevalence rose from 1.5% (Riskesdas 2018) to 1.7% in 2023 (SKI 2023). In West Java Province, prevalence increased from 1.28% to 1.7%. In Tasikmalaya City, the number of DM patients reached 635 in 2023, rising from 498 in the previous year. The Indihiang Public Health Center (Puskesmas) area is among the regions with a relatively high number of cases. This study aimed to design a prototype pocket book that provides information on glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) as an educational medium for individuals with type 2 DM. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) method using the 4D model (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate$), but was limited to the Develop stage. Validation from subject matter experts yielded a score of 80.1% (valid), while media expert validation achieved 81.7% (very valid), and trial testing with 12 respondents resulted in 89.44% (very good). The pocket book was created using Canva and features clear visuals and accessible language. These results indicate that the pocket book is appropriate for use as an educational tool to help individuals with type 2 DM better understand how to choose suitable foods based on GI and GL.

Abstract

Human Resource Management (HRM) plays a significant role in improving the productivity of healthcare workers, including medical records officers in hospitals. Optimal performance by medical records personnel is crucial to ensuring quality healthcare services. However, in its implementation, many obstacles remain that hinder the effectiveness of HRM strategies. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of HRM strategies in improving the performance of medical records personnel at the Buton Tengah District General Hospital in Southeast Sulawesi Province. The method used in this study was a qualitative approach with a descriptive analytical design. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation techniques, with the subjects involved being medical records personnel and hospital management. For data analysis, a content analysis method was used. The results of this study indicate that HRM strategies are not fully effective. Some of the main problems identified are a shortage of personnel, a limited budget, inadequate facilities and equipment, suboptimal implementation of SOPs, and lack of maintenance of existing equipment. The conclusion of this study is that HRM strategies have not been well integrated in efforts to improve the performance of medical records personnel. Therefore, improvements are needed in terms of human resource planning, training, reward systems, and improvements to supporting facilities and infrastructure.

Abstract

Background: Diarrhea remains a major cause of child mortality in developing countries, mainly due to fluid loss leading to hypovolemic shock. Therefore, family-based fluid monitoring is crucial to prevent complications. Objective: This study aimed to implement and describe fluid monitoring in toddlers at risk of hypovolemia due to diarrhea by highlighting the implementation, observing the outcomes, and analyzing the gaps between two subjects. Methods: This study used a descriptive comparative design by recording fluid intake-output, fluid balance, and hypovolemia signs and symptoms using Buku Pemantauan Cairan Si Kecil, a simple parent-friendly fluid monitoring booklet. Results: The results showed that the implementation led to gradual improvement, marked by reduced frequency of diarrhea and vomiting, improved vital signs, and the achievement of positive fluid balance. The subject who received more active parental support showed faster improvement by the third day, while the other subject improved by the fourth day. Factors such as the level of family involvement, recording methods, fever status, and body weight differences also influenced the outcomes. Conclusion: This study shows that intake-output recording by parents using a simple medium could facilitate a real-time hydration status monitoring. These findings strengthen the relevance of Family-Centered Care in pediatric nursing by positioning parents as collaborative partners in care delivery.

Abstract

Plaque and food debris can easily accumulate on the teeth and gums if proper brushing is not practiced regularly. Health education through demonstration is an approach expected to improve tooth-brushing behavior among school children. This study aimed to determine the effect of health education using the demonstration method on tooth-brushing behavior among Grade 1 students at MI Luwunggede, Brebes District. This study employed a quantitative quasi-experimental design using a one-group pre–post test approach. A total of 65 students were selected using total sampling. An observation sheet assessing tooth-brushing behavior was used as the research instrument. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test for bivariate analysis. The pre-test results showed that most respondents were in the poor category (73.8%). After the intervention, most respondents were in the good category (56.9%). The Wilcoxon test indicated a statistically significant difference before and after intervention (p < 0.001). It can be concluded that health education through demonstration significantly improved tooth-brushing behavior among students. Regular school-based oral health education programs are recommended to maintain sustainable behavioral change

Abstract

Background: Primigravida women have a high risk of experiencing perineal rupture during childbirth. Perineal rupture can lead to complications such as bleeding and infection. If the care provided is inadequate, this condition can interfere with the mother's activities after giving birth. Perineal massage is one non-pharmacological method that has the potential to reduce the risk of rupture. Objectives: To analyze the effectiveness of perineal massage in reducing the risk of perineal rupture in primigravida women. Methods: The study design used was a quasi-experimental design with a single measurement after intervention. Two groups were involved: the intervention group and the control group. The study was conducted at the Tamansari Health Center in Tasikmalaya City from April to May 2025, using observation sheets and checklists as research instruments. Results: Data analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney U test. The p-value obtained was 0.00 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference between the intervention group and the control group. Conclusion: Pregnant women are encouraged to learn perineal massage techniques so they can be applied during pregnancy to prevent perineal rupture.

Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a degenerative disease that continues to increase in Indonesia and is one of the main causes of health complications. Inconsistent monitoring is a challenge in the management of this disease, especially in primary health care facilities such as community health centers. This study aims to design a technology-based diabetes mellitus monitoring system with a Rapid Application Development (RAD) approach to improve the efficiency of monitoring patient conditions. Method: This study uses the Rapid Application Development (RAD) method which consists of 4 stages, namely needs planning, system design, development and system implementation. Data were obtained through interview techniques, observation and documentation at the Manonjaya Community Health Center from five informants from various groups such as doctors, health workers and patients. Data analysis used triangulation of sources and techniques to ensure that the data was truly relevant. Results: The result of this study is a diabetes mellitus monitoring system named SIMON-DM (Sistem Monitoring Diabetes Mellitus). System testing conducted on four respondents showed that the system obtained an average feasibility score of 3.6 out of 4, indicating that SIMON-DM is categorized as good to very good and suitable for implementation in primary healthcare settings.. Conclusion: The diabetes mellitus monitoring system developed is in accordance with user needs and is able to support independent and integrated disease management in health care facilities.
