<![CDATA[Employee performance serves as a key measure of organizational effectiveness and the achievement of institutional objectives, especially in health services. Even though national labor productivity has risen in recent years, that improvement does not necessarily indicate that every regional health agency has reached optimal performance. This research assessed the relationships between workplace conditions, work motivation, and employee performance at the Health Office of Sidenreng Rappang Regency. The study applied a quantitative, descriptive-analytic approach with a cross-sectional design. All 84 civil servants and government contract employees in the institution formed the population, and every member was selected through total sampling. Information was gathered with a Likert-scale questionnaire and examined using Chi-square analysis and binary logistic regression. Work environment and work motivation were each significantly related to employee performance (p < 0.05). In the multivariable analysis, the work environment produced the greatest statistical contribution (Wald = 13.927, p < 0.001), followed by work motivation (Wald = 6.741, p = 0.009). The results suggest that better physical and non-physical workplace conditions, accompanied by stronger employee motivation, may improve performance and support more dependable public health services.]]>

<![CDATA[Pharmaceutical dispensing services serve as an indicator of medical service quality, particularly regarding patient safety and satisfaction. At Nene Mallomo Regional General Hospital (RSUD), there is a discrepancy between the 2024 target of 95% and the actual achievement of 85%, indicating that service quality is currently inadequate. This quality gap has the potential to impact patient satisfaction levels. This study aims to analyze the relationship between medication dispensing waiting times, service quality, and outpatient satisfaction at Nene Mallomo RSUD, Sidenreng Rappang Regency. The study employed an observational analytic design. A sample of 98 respondents was determined using Slovin's formula with a 10% margin of error. Data were collected through surveys and observations, followed by analysis using univariate methods and the bivariate Chi-square test. The results indicate a significant relationship between waiting time and patient satisfaction (p = 0.001) however, no significant relationship was found between service quality and patient satisfaction (p = 0.250). This study provides a valuable basis for hospital management to evaluate and optimize medication dispensing services.]]>

<![CDATA[The Yalimo Regency Student Association in Indonesia and the local government require a valid and organized student database to support the distribution of study assistance. The existing recipient selection process was still conducted manually, causing long processing time, inefficient data search, and potential inconsistency in decision making. This study developed a decision support system for selecting study assistance recipients in Yalimo Regency using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The system development process followed the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC), while AHP was applied to prioritize student alternatives based on four criteria: Grade Point Average (GPA), number of siblings, parents' income, and organizational position. The data processed in the system include student identity, semester, level of study, university, faculty, district of origin, and active academic status. The application was implemented as a web-based system using PHP and MySQL on the XAMPP environment. The system provides login access, student data management, master data management, criteria and alternative input, pairwise comparison processing, and final ranking reports. Black-box testing showed that the main system functions ran according to the expected requirements. The resulting system helps the Yalimo Regency Student Association and the Yalimo Regency Government organize student data and support a more structured, transparent, and efficient study assistance allocation process.]]>

<![CDATA[Stock control is essential for maintaining reliable hospital logistics processes. Preliminary observations at Adinda Medical Centre Hospital identified inaccurate stock records, limited logistics personnel, procurement delays, and inefficient distribution. This study analyzed the associations of medical and non-medical stock control with hospital logistics processes at Adinda Medical Centre Hospital, Sidenreng Rappang Regency. A quantitative descriptive-analytic study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 106 respondents selected by simple random sampling from a population of 145 employees involved in requesting, using, or managing medical and non-medical goods. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Chi-square test, and risk estimates at a significance level of 0.05. Good medical stock control was reported by 63 respondents (59.4%), good non-medical stock control by 60 respondents (56.6%), and good hospital logistics processes by 66 respondents (62.3%). Medical stock control was significantly associated with hospital logistics processes (p = 0.001; OR = 9.792; 95% CI: 3.938–24.352), whereas non-medical stock control was not statistically significant (p = 0.061). These findings indicate that strengthening medical stock planning, recording, monitoring, storage, and distribution should be prioritized while non-medical stock management continues to be improved for operational support.]]>

<![CDATA[Timeliness of compounded medication dispensing is an important indicator of outpatient pharmacy quality. The 2024 Internal Quality Report of Nene Mallomo Regional General Hospital showed that only 47% of compounded prescriptions met the hospital target, while the national maximum waiting-time standard is 60 minutes. This study examined the association of service hours and prescription volume with compounded medication waiting time in the hospital’s outpatient pharmacy. An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design used total sampling of 290 compounded-prescription visits recorded from January to March 2026. Secondary data were obtained from pharmacy service reports and the Hospital Management Information System. Univariate analysis, bivariate regression, classical-assumption testing, and multiple linear regression were performed; skewed prescription-volume and waiting-time data were transformed using natural logarithms for the adjusted model. In bivariate analysis, service hours were associated with waiting time (p = 0.040), and high prescription volume was associated with longer waiting time (p = 0.023). In the adjusted model, prescription volume remained significantly associated with waiting time (B = 0.132; p = 0.023), whereas service hours did not (B = -0.110; p = 0.051). The model was significant overall (p = 0.012) but explained only 3.0% of waiting-time variation. Prescription volume was therefore the only significant predictor in the adjusted model. Workload-based staffing, a dedicated compounded-prescription flow, advance preparation of frequently used materials, and HMIS-based monitoring are recommended, while other operational determinants should be examined in future studies.]]>

<![CDATA[Surgical procedures involve invasive interventions performed for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes and may induce various physiological responses. General anesthesia is commonly administered to suppress consciousness and pain during surgery; however, agitation may occur during post-anesthetic recovery and can be associated with psychological conditions such as anxiety before surgery. This study examined the association between preoperative anxiety levels and post-anesthetic agitation in patients receiving general anesthesia. A cross-sectional design was applied to 71 eligible patients recruited through consecutive sampling according to predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The association between the two variables was examined using Spearman’s rank correlation. The analysis demonstrated a statistically significant positive relationship between preoperative anxiety and post-anesthetic agitation (ρ = 0.779, p = 0.001). Thus, higher levels of anxiety before surgery were associated with greater post-anesthetic agitation following general anesthesia. These findings highlight the potential importance of identifying and appropriately managing preoperative anxiety as part of perioperative care for patients undergoing general anesthesia.]]>

<![CDATA[High academic and clinical practice demands can trigger academic stress, a mental health condition frequently experienced by nursing students. This condition can affect menstrual cycle regularity due to its impact on the hormonal system. This study aimed to examine the relationship between academic stress and menstrual cycle regularity among female nursing students at the Faculty of Health, Samawa University. A quantitative method with a cross-sectional design was employed. A total of 121 students from the Diploma III Nursing program and 42 students from the Bachelor of Nursing program were randomly selected from the population. The Perception of Academic Stress (PAS) scale was used to measure academic stress levels, while a questionnaire was used to collect data on menstrual cycle regularity. Data analysis was conducted using Fisher's Exact test and other univariate and bivariate techniques, with a significance level of 95% (α = 0.05). The majority of respondents reported moderate academic stress levels (50.8%), followed by high (36.5%) and low (12.7%) levels. Menstrual cycle irregularity was reported by 35 participants (55.6%). Based on Fisher's Exact test, no statistically significant relationship was found between academic stress and menstrual cycle regularity among female nursing students at the Faculty of Health, Samawa University (p > 0.05). To gain a deeper understanding of menstrual cycle regularity, future research should consider additional variables not covered in this study.]]>

<![CDATA[Nursing care documentation serves as a key indicator of service quality and patient safety, with nurse performance in completing documentation influenced by factors such as the head nurse's leadership style. At Military Hospital, characterized by a highly disciplined military organizational culture, identifying an appropriate leadership approach is essential to optimizing staff performance. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between staff nurses' perceptions of head nurse leadership style and their performance in completing nursing care documentation. A quantitative correlational design with a cross-sectional approach was employed. The population comprised 79 staff nurses across inpatient wards, with 66 respondents selected via stratified proportional random sampling. Data were collected using structured questionnaires with established validity and reliability (Cronbach's alpha > 0.95), and analyzed through univariate and bivariate methods using Spearman's rho. Results showed that most staff nurses (77.3%; n = 51) perceived their head nurse as exhibiting a democratic leadership style, while 22.7% (n = 15) perceived an autocratic style. Overall staff nurse performance fell into the very good category (mean score 55.68/60). Spearman's rho revealed a significant positive relationship between perceived leadership style and staff nurse performance (p < 0.001; r = 0.420). These findings confirm a significant relationship between staff nurses' perceptions of leadership style and their documentation performance, with democratic leadership associated with better outcomes than autocratic leadership—even within a highly disciplined, hierarchical hospital culture.]]>

<![CDATA[Beyond its physical impact, Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) significantly disrupts a patient's psychological equilibrium. Incorporating spirituality into patient care offers a potential avenue for coping and facilitating holistic rehabilitation. This study synthesized current evidence regarding how spiritual factors and targeted spiritual care influence psychological and clinical outcomes in ACS cohorts. Following PRISMA 2020 protocols, a systematic search of PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar yielded 11 eligible original studies. Synthesis revealed that spiritual well-being strongly correlates with diminished levels of anxiety, existential dread, hopelessness, and PTSD symptoms, while concurrently fostering resilience, self-efficacy, and overall quality of life. Furthermore, structured spiritual care, family-integrated support, and dhikr-based therapies demonstrated clear psychological benefits. Consequently, integrating spiritual assessments into standard cardiovascular nursing practices is essential for comprehensive patient management.]]>
