<![CDATA[Pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis through droplets from patients diagnosed with TB. Based on the Global TB Report 2024, WHO reported that Indonesia ranks second in the world, where 81% of cases were confirmed and 90% of them had received treatment, where there was an increase in the number of cases compared to 2023 with 77% of confirmed cases and 88% of them received treatment. The increase in the number of pulmonary TB cases is inseparable from factors that determine the transmission of M. tb such as the concentration of organisms in the air related to ventilation and the length of time a person inhales contaminated air. To determine the relationship between ventilation conditions and home lighting to the incidence of pulmonary TB in the working area of the Glugur Darat Health Center in 2025 This study is an analytical study with a cross-sectional study design. Sample selection used the consecutive sampling method with 56 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Of the 56 people who met the criteria, 30 people (53.6%) were pulmonary TB sufferers and 26 people (46.4%) were not pulmonary TB sufferers. The majority of respondents were male (38 people) and the highest number was found in the 18-59 age range (48 people) (85.7%). Regarding ventilation conditions, 34 people (60.7%) did not meet adequate ventilation requirements, and 29 homes (51.8%) did not meet adequate lighting requirements. There was a relationship between ventilation conditions and the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis in the Glugur Darat Community Health Center work area, but there was no relationship between home lighting and the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis in the Glugur Darat Community Health Center work area.]]>

<![CDATA[Preeclampsia is a pregnancy complication that contributes significantly to maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality, especially in developing countries. Despite various preventive measures, preeclampsia is still frequently found at the primary health care level. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing the incidence of preeclampsia in pregnant women at the Tiley Care Community Health Center. This study used an observational analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population was all pregnant women who visited antenatal care at the Tiley Care Community Health Center, with a sample of 60 respondents selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected through a review of medical records and KIA books, then analyzed univariately and bivariately using the Chi-Square test with a significance level of α = 0.05. The results showed that maternal age, history of hypertension, nutritional status based on body mass index, and adherence to antenatal care visits had a statistically significant relationship with the incidence of preeclampsia. Meanwhile, parity did not show a significant relationship with the incidence of preeclampsia. This study concluded that the incidence of preeclampsia is influenced by various maternal factors and maternal health behaviors during pregnancy. These findings underscore the importance of implementing risk-based antenatal care through early screening, ongoing monitoring, and increased adherence to antenatal care visits as a preventative measure for preeclampsia at the primary healthcare level.]]>

<![CDATA[Early pregnancy among adolescents remains a significant public health problem and contributes to long-term medical, psychological, and social risks. Low knowledge and preventive attitudes towards reproductive health are among the factors contributing to the high rate of early pregnancy. This study aims to analyze the effect of peer education on adolescent attitudes towards early pregnancy prevention in the Ibu Community Health Center (Puskesmas Ibu) working area of West Halmahera Regency. The study design used a quasi-experimental approach with a pretest–posttest with a control group involving 40 respondents, consisting of 20 respondents in the intervention group and 20 respondents in the control group. The research instrument was an attitude questionnaire with a Likert scale that had undergone validity and reliability testing. Analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon test and the Mann–Whitney U Test at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed a significant increase in attitudes in the intervention group after receiving peer education, while the control group showed no significant change. Comparison of score changes between the two groups also showed a significant difference. These findings indicate that peer education is effective in improving adolescent attitudes towards early pregnancy prevention. This program is recommended as a community-based intervention strategy in primary health care and schools to support adolescent pregnancy prevention efforts.]]>

<![CDATA[Perineal wounds are a common condition experienced by postpartum mothers after vaginal delivery and can potentially cause pain, discomfort, and the risk of infection if not properly cared for. Effective, safe, and culturally appropriate perineal wound care is a crucial need in postpartum care, especially at the primary health care level. Green betel leaves (Piper betle L.) are known to have antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties that have the potential to support the wound healing process. This study aims to analyze the effect of green betel leaf water baths on the perineal wound healing process in postpartum mothers in the Sikui Community Health Center (UPT) work area. This study used a quantitative quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The study was conducted in June–July 2025 with 18 postpartum mothers with grade I and II perineal wounds as respondents. Wound condition assessment before intervention was carried out using the REEDA instrument as a baseline condition, while healing results were evaluated based on clinical outcomes and the duration of perineal wound healing. Data analysis was conducted descriptively. The results showed that all respondents experienced clinical perineal wound healing after the green betel leaf water bath intervention. The majority of postpartum mothers experienced wound healing in less than one week, with a median healing time of 5.5 days. In conclusion, green betel leaf water bath has the potential to support the perineal wound healing process in postpartum mothers. This intervention can be considered a safe, easy-to-implement, and relevant complementary therapy for integration into postpartum care in primary healthcare settings.]]>

<![CDATA[Hyperemesis gravidarum is a condition of severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy that can cause serious physical and psychological effects on pregnant women. In addition to biological and hormonal factors, psychological aspects such as anxiety are thought to play an important role in the occurrence of hyperemesis gravidarum. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the level of anxiety in pregnant women and the occurrence of hyperemesis gravidarum. The study uses a quantitative approach with an analytical observational design through a cross-sectional method. The study sample consisted of 30 pregnant women in their first trimester who were selected using purposive sampling. Anxiety levels were measured using a standardized anxiety questionnaire and categorized as moderate and severe anxiety, while the incidence of hyperemesis gravidarum was determined based on complaints of excessive nausea and vomiting and clinical data. Data analysis was performed univariately and bivariately using the Goodman–Kruskal tau test with a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that most respondents experienced moderate to severe anxiety, and some respondents experienced hyperemesis gravidarum. Bivariate analysis showed a significant and very strong relationship between anxiety levels and the incidence of hyperemesis gravidarum. These findings indicate that the higher the anxiety level of pregnant women, the greater the likelihood of hyperemesis gravidarum. The conclusion of this study confirms that anxiety is an important psychological factor associated with the occurrence of hyperemesis gravidarum. Therefore, the integration of anxiety screening and management into antenatal care is essential as part of a comprehensive, mother-centered approach to pregnancy care]]>

<![CDATA[Obstetric emergencies are a major cause of maternal mortality, most of which can be prevented through prompt and appropriate treatment. Midwives, as health workers assigned to the Emergency Department (ED) of PONEK, play a strategic role in early detection and initial management of obstetric emergencies, thus their knowledge level is an important factor in determining preparedness for treatment. This study aims to analyze the relationship between midwives' knowledge level regarding obstetric emergency management and their preparedness for handling obstetric emergencies in the Emergency Department (ED) of PONEK of Muara Teweh Regional Hospital. This study used an observational analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. The study sample consisted of 28 midwives selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire to measure their knowledge level and preparedness for handling obstetric emergencies. Data analysis was performed descriptively and inferentially using the Fisher's Exact Test. The results showed that more than half of the midwives had a good level of knowledge and preparedness for handling obstetric emergencies. Inferential analysis showed a highly significant relationship between midwives' knowledge level and their preparedness for obstetric emergencies (p < 0.001). It was concluded that midwives' knowledge level was closely related to their preparedness for obstetric emergencies in the PONEK Emergency Department of Muara Teweh Regional Hospital. This finding underscores the importance of strengthening midwives' knowledge through ongoing training, clinical simulations, and routine supervision to improve clinical preparedness and ensure the safety of mothers and babies in emergency obstetric care.]]>

<![CDATA[Giving breast milk (ASI) exclusively during the first six months of a baby's life is very important in supporting the baby's growth and development and body resilience. However, the practice of giving formula milk is still quite high and is a challenge in fulfilling exclusive breastfeeding. This study aims to determine the determining factors for giving formula milk to babies aged 0-6 months in the work environment UPT Primary Health Care Pujon. This research design uses a descriptive analytical approach with a cross-sectional method to identify factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding. The research population was all mothers who had babies with a sample of 52 respondents obtained through total sampling. Data analysis was carried out using the Chi-Square test and logistic regression to determine the most dominant factors. The research results showed that all variables had a p value > 0.05, namely age (p=0.274), education (p=0.156), occupation (p=0.384), parity (p=0.280) and socio-culture (p=0.711), so there was no significant relationship between these variables and exclusive breastfeeding. The logistic regression model was also not significant (p=0.308), indicating that there were no dominant factors influencing the practice of exclusive breastfeeding among respondents. Thus, the low coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in this study may be influenced by other factors outside the variables studied.]]>

<![CDATA[Tetanus Toxoid (TT) immunization is a key preventive intervention to protect women of reproductive age and newborns from tetanus infection. Despite its importance, limited knowledge among prospective brides may reduce the effectiveness of TT immunization programs. This study aimed to analyze the effect of TT immunization counseling on the knowledge levels of prospective brides at Wayabula Public Health Center. A quantitative study using a quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was conducted involving 40 prospective brides selected through total sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire measuring respondents’ knowledge before and after counseling. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test was used to analyze differences in knowledge levels. The results showed a significant improvement in knowledge after counseling, with the majority of respondents demonstrating higher posttest scores compared to pretest scores and no respondents experiencing a decrease in knowledge. These findings indicate that counseling plays an important role in enhancing understanding of TT immunization, including its purpose, benefits, and preventive value. In conclusion, TT immunization counseling is effective in improving knowledge among prospective brides and should be integrated as a mandatory component of routine immunization services. Strengthening counseling activities is expected to support informed decision-making, promote positive health behavior, and contribute to the prevention of tetanus in mothers and newborns.]]>
