Abstract

Background: The Integrated Health Post plays an important role as a community-based health effort (UKBM) in improving basic health services. However, low community participation was found at Integrated Health Post X in Samarinda City. This was due to the ineffective dissemination of information, both online and offline, which was exacerbated by limited information media, low access to technology, and a lack of coordination between stakeholders. Purpose: To identify the root causes of low community participation and formulate empowerment strategies through improvements to the Integrated Health Post activity information dissemination system. Method: The research used qualitative ethnography through surveys, observations, in-depth interviews, Focus Group Discussions (FGD) with USG tools, and in-depth interviews with cadres, neighborhood units (RT), and the community. Problem analysis was conducted using a Fishbone Diagram and strategy formulation through a Plan of Action based on input, process, output, and outcome indicators. Result: The analysis showed that the main cause of low community participation was ineffective information dissemination. The solutions produced included the formation of an information team, training in digital content creation, utilization of social media, and direct delivery of information by utilizing existing potential. Conclusion: This study shows low community attendance at Integrated Health Post X due to suboptimal information dissemination. Limited media, technological access gaps, and the absence of an organized information system prevent residents from receiving information in a timely manner. Situation analysis, focus group discussions, and in-depth interviews identified information dissemination as the main problem. Improvements are focused on forming a special team and training content creation to maximize digital media and direct communication. This strategy is expected to increase information reach, coordination, and community participation.

Abstract

Background: The development of social skills in children aged 2–4 years is a crucial foundation for shaping personality and future interpersonal relationships. However, technological advancements have led to an increase in children’s screen time duration, which is feared to potentially hinder their social development. Purpose: to examine the relationship between screen time duration and social skills among children aged 2–4 years within the family environment. Method: This research employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive correlational design. The population consisted of all children aged 2–4 years in Kembangragi Village, Selayar Islands Regency, totaling 80 children, with the entire population included as the sample (total sampling). Data were collected using structured questionnaires and observation and then analyzed using correlation tests. Results: The analysis revealed that most children had more than 2 hours of screen time per day. Lower levels of social skills were more frequently observed among children with higher screen time. A significant relationship was found between screen time duration and children’s social skills (p < 0.05), indicating that the longer the screen time, the lower the social skills. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between screen time and social skills in children aged 2–4 years. Therefore, parental supervision and regulation of screen time are necessary to support children’s optimal social development. Suggestion: Future researchers are advised to use a mixed methods approach to obtain a more comprehensive picture of the quality of screen time interactions and its impact on child development.

Abstract

Background: The rate of cesarean sections continues to rise globally, reaching around 21%, and in Indonesia, it reaches 17–18% of all deliveries. Post-cesarean section patients often experience limited mobility due to pain and muscle weakness, necessitating effective interventions such as early mobilization to prevent complications and accelerate recovery. Purpose:  To determine the effectiveness of early mobilization in improving mobilization ability in post-cesarean section patients. Method: The study design used a case study approach in two post-cesarean section patients who met the inclusion criteria. Early mobilization intervention was provided according to standard operating procedures (SOP), including ROM exercises, position changes, sitting exercises at 6 hours postoperatively, and standing and walking exercises at 8 hours postoperatively. Evaluation was conducted over three treatment sessions to assess changes in mobilization ability. Results: Prior to the intervention, both patients experienced mobility limitations in the form of decreased muscle strength, limited range of motion, pain, and anxiety when moving, with mobility scores in the moderate category (scale 3). After three sessions of early mobilization intervention, there was a significant improvement in all mobility indicators, including muscle strength, ROM, and standing and walking ability. Mobility scores increased to the high category (scale 5). Early mobilization has been proven effective in accelerating recovery and increasing independence in post-cesarean section patients. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that early mobilization intervention is effective in improving mobility in post-cesarean section patients. Prior to the intervention, patients experienced mobility limitations in the form of decreased muscle strength, limited range of motion, pain, and anxiety about moving.

Abstract

Background: Stunting remains a major public health issue, particularly in developing countries, and is strongly influenced by conditions during pregnancy and early life. Prematurity and birth anthropometry, such as low birth weight and short birth length, are believed to be key determinants that increase the risk of growth failure in infants and toddlers. Purpose: to analyze the role of prematurity as a risk factor for stunting and examine its interaction with birth anthropometry among infants and toddlers. Method: This analytic observational study employed a case–control design involving 78 children aged 24–59 months, consisting of 39 stunted and 39 non-stunted children selected through total sampling. Data on birth history and nutritional status were collected, and stunting was determined using height-for-age z-scores (HAZ). Data analysis included chi-square tests for bivariate associations and logistic regression for multivariate analysis and interaction testing. Results: Among all respondents, 28.2% were born prematurely and 24.4% had low birth weight. Prematurity showed a significant relationship with stunting (p = 0.002), with premature children having a 3.12-fold higher risk of stunting. Multivariate analysis confirmed prematurity as a significant predictor (OR = 4.71; p = 0.004), while low birth weight also contributed significantly (OR = 2.97; p = 0.018). The interaction between prematurity and low birth weight demonstrated the strongest effect (OR = 5.48; p = 0.010), indicating that children with both risk factors have the highest likelihood of stunting. Conclusion: Prematurity and low birth weight are significant risk factors for stunting, and their interaction substantially increases the risk of growth failure. Strengthening maternal care, preventing premature births, and optimizing neonatal management for at-risk infants are essential strategies to reduce stunting prevalence.

Abstract

Background: Stunting remains a major maternal and child health concern globally, with long-term consequences on physical growth, cognitive development, and future productivity. In 2020, an estimated 149 million children under five years of age were affected by stunting worldwide. In Indonesia, the prevalence of stunting reached 24.4% in 2021, indicating a persistent public health challenge. Inadequate maternal knowledge and inappropriate complementary feeding practices, particularly related to animal-source protein intake, contribute significantly to stunting during the critical first 1,000 days of life. Innovative nutrition education strategies are therefore needed to improve maternal knowledge and attitudes toward optimal infant and young child feeding. Purpose: to evaluate the effectiveness of audiovisual media in improving mothers’ knowledge and attitudes regarding “Isi Piringku” complementary feeding practices, with a focus on animal-source protein intake, as an effort to prevent stunting. Method: A pre-experimental study with a one-group pretest–posttest design was conducted among mothers of children aged 6–24 months in the working area of Ikur Koto Primary Health Center, Padang, Indonesia. Participants were selected using incidental sampling. Nutrition education was delivered using audiovisual media. Data were analyzed using the Shapiro–Wilk test for normality and a one-sample t-test with a significance level of p < 0.05. Results: The results demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in mothers’ knowledge and attitudes after the audiovisual-based nutrition education intervention. Mothers showed better understanding of balanced complementary feeding practices, particularly the importance of animal-source protein in preventing stunting. Conclusion: Audiovisual-based nutrition education is an effective strategy to enhance maternal knowledge and attitudes regarding complementary feeding practices. This approach has strong potential to support stunting prevention programs within maternal and child health services.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a body condition that occurs due to chronic malnutrition due to the lack of fulfillment of nutritional needs over a long period of time. In Indonesia, it is estimated that almost less than 20% of children are stunted. Purpose: to outline the socio-cultural factors and ethical dilemmas of nursing that contribute to stunting in children in Indonesia. Method: To achieve this goal, the author conducted a systematic review of quantitative research articles that addressed the topic. Article searches were conducted through Google Scholar and ScienceDirect using keywords such as "social," "cultural," "ethical," "stunting," "child," and "Indonesian." Relevant articles, published within the last five years (2020-2025), and available in Indonesian and English, are then selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria that have been set. Search results resulted in ten articles that met the criteria. Results: From the ten articles, eight main themes were found that became socio-cultural factors and ethical dilemmas of nursing related to stunting in children in Indonesia. These themes are based on the results of the journal analysis: nutritional intake of pregnant women, exclusive breastfeeding, complementary breastfeeding (MPASI), community attitudes towards stunting, childcare patterns, environmental cleanliness, as well as economic and educational aspects of parents. Conclusion: Through this systematic review, this study succeeded in revealing how complex socio-cultural factors are interrelated and contribute to the occurrence of stunting in children in Indonesia. These factors include the nutritional adequacy of the mother during pregnancy, the success of exclusive breastfeeding, complementary feeding practices, public views on stunting, the parenting methods applied, the quality of environmental sanitation, as well as the economic conditions and education level of parents.

Abstract

Background: Women of reproductive age are a group that requires special attention regarding health and nutritional status during the preconception period, as nutritional conditions prior to pregnancy play a crucial role in determining maternal and infant health outcomes. Data from Pardasuka Health Center in 2024 recorded 487 pregnant women, of whom 79 (16.2%) experienced chronic energy deficiency (CED) and 37 (7.6%) had anemia. Furthermore, of the total 116 pregnant women with CED and anemia in 2024, 14 (12.1%) delivered low birth weight (LBW) infants and 14 (12.1%) delivered stunted infants. Nutritional interventions and preconception education delivered through digital media have been shown to be effective in improving knowledge and attitudes related to reproductive health and nutrition. Purpose: to determine the effect of educational videos on preconception nutrition on the knowledge and attitudes of premarital women. Method: The study employed a quasi-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The study population consisted of prospective brides, with a sample of 20 respondents selected through consecutive sampling. The statistical analysis used in this study was the McNemar test. Results: The results showed that educational videos on preconception nutrition had a significant effect on the knowledge of premarital women in the working area of the UPTD Pardasuka Health Center in 2025 (p-value = 0.031; p < 0.05). Conclusion: The educational videos also had a significant effect on the attitudes of premarital women in the same area (p-value = 0.008; p < 0.05). Suggestion: It is expected that premarital women utilize digital media to obtain continuous health education and adopt healthy behaviors from an early stage.

Abstract

Background: The coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in Indonesia has not yet reached the national target of 80%, despite a gradual increase over recent years. One of the main barriers to successful exclusive breastfeeding is the Perception of Insufficient Breast Milk (PIM), a psychological condition in which mothers believe that their breast milk production is inadequate to meet their infants’ needs. Purpose: To analyze factors associated with the perception of insufficient breast milk among breastfeeding mothers. Metdod: This study employed a quantitative analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 63 breastfeeding mothers who met the inclusion criteria were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using the Chi-square test with a significance level of α = 0.05. Results: The results showed that 57.1% of respondents experienced the perception of insufficient breast milk. Significant associations were found between maternal knowledge (p = 0.004; POR = 4.750), employment status (p = 0.014; POR = 0.256), family support (p = 0.007; POR = 4.202), and exposure to formula milk (p = 0.031; POR = 3.520) with the perception of insufficient breast milk. Support from health workers was not significantly associated with this perception (p = 0.303). Conclusion: Poor maternal knowledge, maternal employment, low family support, and exposure to formula milk contribute to an increased perception of insufficient breast milk. Continuous breastfeeding education, optimal family involvement, and stricter supervision of formula milk promotion are essential to strengthen mothers’ confidence in breastfeeding and to improve exclusive breastfeeding achievement.
