Abstract

Introduction: Prolonged active phase of labor increases the risk of maternal and neonatal complications. One non-pharmacological method to accelerate labor is the pelvic rocking technique using a birthing ball. Objective: To determine the effect of pelvic rocking on the duration of the active phase of the first stage of labor in the working area of Kalapanunggal Health Center. Methods: A quasi-experimental study with a two-group posttest-only design was conducted on 30 women in labor, divided into an intervention group (pelvic rocking, n=15) and a control group (light walking, n=15) selected by purposive sampling. Instruments included partographs and observation sheets. Data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test. Results: Most respondents were aged 20–35 years (66.7%) and primiparous (56.7%). The mean duration of the active phase of the first stage was 221 minutes in the intervention group and 390 minutes in the control group (p=0.000). The mean duration of the second stage was 77 minutes in the intervention group and 108 minutes in the control group (p=0.021). Conclusion: Pelvic rocking significantly shortens the duration of both the active phase of the first stage and the second stage of labor. This technique can be recommended as an effective and easily applied non-pharmacological intervention to support labor progress.

Abstract

Weight Faltering in toddlers is an early indicator of nutritional status disorders that can impact a child's growth and development. This condition reflects an imbalance between nutritional intake, metabolic needs, and infectious disease factors. In Indonesia, cases of Weight Faltering in toddlers are still quite high and are a concern in efforts to improve toddler nutrition, including in the Jakarta area. The objective was to analyze factors related to the incidence of Weight Faltering in toddlers. These factors included a history of exclusive breastfeeding, dietary patterns, history of infectious diseases, and immunization history. The study used a quantitative descriptive correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population was 87 toddlers in the Jakarta area, using a total sampling technique. Data were collected through weight measurements, interviews using questionnaires, 24-hour dietary recall forms, and searches of KIA books. Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate methods. The results of the bivariate analysis showed that dietary patterns (p = 0.002) and history of infectious diseases (p = <0.001) had a significant relationship with the incidence of Weight Faltering in toddlers. Toddlers with poor diets and a history of infectious diseases are at higher risk of experiencing poor Weight Faltering . Weight Faltering in toddlers is influenced by diet and a history of infectious diseases. A history of exclusive breastfeeding and immunizations are not directly related to the incidence of poor or stable weight faltering.

Abstract

Particularly in primary healthcare settings, healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) continue to be considered a serious threat to maternal and neonatal care. In order to lower the risk of infection, midwives are critical for the implementation of Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) strategies. However, midwives' adherence to IPC procedures is frequently inconsistent and might be impacted by personal characteristics like attitude and knowledge.The purpose of this study proved to determine how midwives' attitudes and knowledge related to infection prevention and control (IPC) practices in Mempawah Regency, West Kalimantan, Indonesia. Midwives employed by Mempawah Regency's district health office and primary healthcare facilities participated in a quantitative cross-sectional study. Purposive sampling was used to identify 76 midwives within total. A validated and structured questionnaire measuring IPC practices, knowledge, and attitude was used to collect data. The Chi-square test was used to analyze the data at a significance level of p < 0.05. It was found that midwives who had positive attitudes and good knowledge were more likely to apply IPC practices correctly. A statistically significant correlation (p < 0.05) was found between knowledge and IPC practices, as well as between attitude and IPC practices. Midwives' infection prevention and control practices have a significant correlation with their knowledge and attitudes. To enhance IPC implementation in primary healthcare settings, encouragement and ongoing training must be strengthened.

Abstract

Background: Adolescence is a transitional period from childhood to adulthood characterized by physical, psychological, and social changes, including the biological functioning of the reproductive organs. Menstrual pain that is not promptly managed can affect an individual’s mental and physical functioning, thus requiring immediate intervention through pharmacological or non-pharmacological therapies. Acupressure therapy can be used as a treatment for dysmenorrhea by applying massage techniques to specific meridian points on the body. One of the points that can be used to relieve dysmenorrhea is the Hegu (LI4) point. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of acupressure therapy on dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls at SMPN 5 Jagoi Babang. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretet-posttest two-group design approach. The sample consisted of adolescent girls selected using a total sampling technique. The participants were divided into two groups: the control group received no intervention, while the experimental group received acupressure therapy at the LI4 point. The paired t test was used for within-group analysis, and the independen t test was used for between-group analysis. Results: The results showed that acupressure therapy was effective in reducing dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls (p < 0.000). The administration of LI4 acupressure therapy was more effective than no intervention (p = 0.000). Conclusion: Acupressure therapy at the LI4 point is clinically effective and statistically significant in reducing dysmenorrhea compared to no intervention. Keywords: Adolescents, LI4 (Hegu) Acupressure, Dysmenorrhea

Abstract

Background Smooth breast milk flow is an important factor in successful breastfeeding during the postpartum period, but in the early days after delivery, some postpartum mothers experience difficulty in breast milk flow due to lack of breast stimulation and inhibition of the oxytocin reflex. One non-pharmacological effort that can be done to increase the smoothness of breast milk flow is Woolwich Massage, a breast massage technique that aims to stimulate the milk ejection reflex. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of Woolwich Massage on the smoothness of breast milk flow and the differences between the intervention group and the control group in postpartum mothers in PMB in the Kampung Melayu District, Bengkulu City. The quasi-experimental design method with a post-test only approach with a control group in 30 postpartum mothers who were divided into an intervention group and a control group. The intervention group was given Woolwich Massage for three consecutive days, while the control group was not given any intervention, then the smoothness of breast milk flow was measured on the 7th day using an observation sheet. Data were analyzed using the Mann–Whitney test. The results of the study showed that the mean rank value of smoothness of breast milk release in the intervention group was 19.33 higher than the control group of 11.67, with a p value = 0.013 (p < 0.05), which indicates a significant difference between the two groups. The conclusion of this study is that Woolwich Massage has a significant effect on smoothness of breast milk release in postpartum mothers and is proven to be more effective than without intervention and can be considered as one of the non-pharmacological interventions in midwifery services, especially in postpartum maternal care, to help improve smoothness of breast milk release.

Abstract

Background: Labor pain can cause anxiety and fatigue, which may affect the progress of labor and fetal well-being. One approach to managing labor pain is through non-pharmacological methods, such as endorphin massage and instrumental music therapy, specifically sape music. Objective: To analyze the effect of endorphin massage and sape music therapy on labor pain before and after treatment in Mempawah Regency. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest– posttest nonequivalent control group design. The study population consisted of women in the active phase of the first stage of labor from August to October 2025, totaling 97 individuals. A total of 30 participants were selected, consisting of 15 participants in the intervention group who received endorphin massage combined with sape music therapy and 15 participants in the control group. The sampling technique used was consecutive sampling. Results: The mean labor pain score before and after the administration of Sape's music therapy and endorphin massage in the intervention group decreased from 6.33 to 4.67, while in the control group, it decreased from 6.33 to 4.66. There was a significant effect of Sape's music therapy and endorphin massage on labor pain (p-value < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the mean pain scores between the intervention and control groups (p = 1,000). However, after treatment, the mean labor pain score in the intervention group was lower than that in the control group (p=0.039). Conclusion: Endorphin massage combined with sape ' music therapy was more effective than endorphin massage alone, with a mean difference of 1.000 in the endorphin massage and sape ' music therapy group and 0.039 in the endorphin massage-only group. Recommendation: It is recommended that endorphin massage and sape music therapy be applied as alternative non-pharmacological methods for managing labor pain and further developed in future studies with larger sample sizes.
