Abstract

ABSTRACTBackground: Nursing workload may be associated with nurse performance, but local evidence from inpatient settings is limited. Objective: To examine the association between workload and the performance of inpatient nurses at Poso Regional General Hospital. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 59 of 144 inpatient nurses selected by simple random sampling. The instruments used to assess nurses’ workload and performance were questionnaires developed by previous researchers. The data were analyzed using Spearman’s rank correlation.  Results: Moderate workload was reported by 36 nurses (61.0%), and adequate performance by 43 (72.9%). Spearman’s rank correlation showed a statistically significant association (ρ = 0.574, p < 0.001; n = 59). Conclusion: Workload was associated with nurse performance in this sample. Hospital leaders may review unit-level staffing distribution alongside workload data.

Abstract

Background: The World Health Organization Surgical Safety Checklist (SSC) uses sign-in, time-out, and sign-out checks to support perioperative team communication and patient safety.Objective: To describe phase-specific implementation of the SSC among operating-room personnel at Luwuk Regional General Hospital.Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study included all 36 nurses and midwives working in the hospital’s operating room in August 2022. Data were collected through direct observation using a 22-indicator checklist based on WHO guidance and grouped into three phases. Frequencies and percentages were used to summarize phase-specific implementation.Results: Among the 36 personnel, sign-in was recorded as performed for 27 (75.0%), time-out for 22 (61.1%), and sign-out for 32 (88.9%). Sign-out had the highest reported proportion, whereas time-out had the lowest. These findings indicate variation in recorded checklist implementation across the three phases.Conclusion: Time-out had the lowest reported implementation proportion, supporting focused audit and feedback on phase-specific checklist use. The findings provide a local descriptive baseline for improvement efforts.

Abstract

Background: Adolescent HIV prevention literacy remains a school-health concern. This study assessed immediate knowledge and attitude changes following leaflet-supported education in Palu, Indonesia.Methods: A one-group pretest–posttest study included 77 randomly selected students from 96 eligible Grade 11 vocational students. Three approximately 50-minute sessions (18–20 March 2025) combined leaflets, lectures, and discussion. Knowledge and attitudes were assessed before and immediately after sessions. Paired t-tests compared baseline with the final assessment.Results: Knowledge increased from 12.34 to 20.49 (paired mean improvement 8.156; 95% CI 7.364–8.948; p < 0.001). Attitude scores increased from 64.41 to 81.81 (paired improvement 17.403; 95% CI 15.937–18.868; p < 0.001).Conclusion: The educational program was associated with improved immediate questionnaire scores.
