Abstract

Although several diabetes self-care management tools have been created, very few provide preparation for diabetes self-care behavior management. Three essential components of diabetes self-care management are measured by the assessment tool "Skills, Confidence & Preparedness Index (LMC) (SCPI)": Knowledge of skills, Confidence in one's ability to use skills, and Readiness to put skills into practice. This study aims to validate, translate, and adapt the SCPI for usage with Indonesian adults with type 2 diabetes. Methods: The American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons Evidence Based Medicine Committee (AAOS) criteria for modifying the scale were adhered to in this study. Evaluate average variance, Cronbach alpha, and composite reliability to test validity and reliability. Specifically, determinant coefficient testing and model appropriateness testing are used to assess goodness of fit. Examine the valid R-squared statistical value for every relationship to determine the test. If the p-value is less than 0.05, then there is a direct and indirect association to be seen if the variable is significant Result: Cronbach's alpha > 0.60 indicates strong internal consistency for the Indonesian SCPI version or I-SCPI. For every variable, the AVE value is larger than 0.50, while the CR value exceeds 0.70. This indicates that all legitimate indicators converge to form the variables for which they are intended. The R-Square values of 0.312 and 0.536 for the variables of preparedness and confidence are used to calculate the degree of good fit. This number indicates that the Preparedness variable is only partially explained by the Confidence and Preparedness variables (5.36%), with other variables accounting for the remaining 94.64%. Furthermore, the Skill/Knowledge, Confidence, and Preparedness factors account for only 3% of the variance in the Confidence variable, with the remaining 97% explained by variables outside the model. Conclusion: We developed an Indonesian version of SCPI through cross-cultural translation and adaption. The I-SCPI is reliable and valid for assessing the level of self-management in type 2 diabetes patients in Indonesia

Breast care during the postpartum period is a necessity for mothers who have just given birth. The postpartum period itself is six weeks or 40 days after delivery. During the postpartum period, breast care is a very important action to care for the breasts, especially to facilitate the release of breast milk (ASI). Swollen breasts usually occur in the first days of a baby's birth. Data obtained from Barru Hospital showed five cases of swollen breasts. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between postpartum mothers' knowledge and attitudes towards breast care at Barru Hospital. This research uses a correlation analytical method with a cross sectional approach, data collection techniques using questionnaires with respondents namely postpartum mothers who receive services at Barru Hospital. Data analysis uses univariate analysis to test respondents' knowledge and attitudes and bivariate analysis to determine the relationship between variables. The results of univariate research with frequency distribution show that some respondents (52.5 %) have less knowledge, the attitude category shows that some respondents (52.5%) have an unsupportive attitude. The results of bivariate analysis with Chi-Square distribution obtained a value of 0.01 (p-value < 0.05). The results of the bivariate analysis showed that very few of the respondents (19%) were 4 people with little knowledge and a supportive attitude. The conclusion of this research is that there is a relationship between postpartum mothers' knowledge and attitudes towards breast care at Barru Hospital. Advice to health workers to carry out continuous outreach and education about breast care.

Abstract

The lungs are one of the vital organs in the human body. To be precise, it is a respiratory (breathing) organ which is related to the respiratory and circulatory systems (blood circulation). Pulmonary tuberculosis is a contagious infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Meanwhile, Relapsed Pulmonary Tuberculosis is a patient with Pulmonary Tuberculosis who is declared cured or has had complete treatment and then comes back for treatment with a positive test result for a cough with phlegm from Acid-Fast Basil. The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors for pulmonary tuberculosis at the Central General Hospital of South Sulawesi. This research uses a cross sectional approach. The population in this study includes the case population, namely pulmonary tuberculosis sufferers who experienced a recurrence and the control population, namely pulmonary tuberculosis sufferers who have been declared cured. The sample in this study was all data on patients with Relapsed Pulmonary Tuberculosis who received treatment at the Central General Hospital of South Sulawesi Province. Data analysis was carried out univariate and bivariate using the chi square test. The results of the study can be concluded that there is no relationship between age and the incidence of relapse of pulmonary tuberculosis. The problem and diagnosis determined is to fulfill the need to breathe normally and the inability to fulfill the need to eat and drink enough. Meanwhile, the nursing intervention that was prepared was directed at helping to control the patient's low-fat and low-salt diet regarding sitting therapy in the Semi-Fowler position. This theory can be applied and applied well in treatment focused on pulmonary tuberculosis cases. For pulmonary tuberculosis patients who experience shortness of breath, improve the quality of their breathing by performing the semi-Fowler position as a non-pharmacological therapy.
