Abstract

This article examines prominent concerns about using telehealth by nursing practitioners in the archipelago. Implementation of telehealth, defined as technologies that enable patients and clinicians to exchange information about their health state remotely. Telehealth was initially developed to reach rural and underserved populations, providing basic care. This article discusses the advantages and obstacles of telehealth for nursing practitioners in the archipelago. Many articles indicate that the use of telehealth for practicing nurses presents numerous barriers, including personal barriers. Conversely, telehealth offers improved patient access, cost savings, and better outcomes through increased patient engagement. Therefore, nurses preparing for this need to be prepared with telehealth education, practical experience, and consistent integration into their professional development.

Abstract

Routine monitoring of larvae is one of the efforts to interrupt the chain of DHF transmission in Tanjungpinang City. There is a requirement for innovation and establishment of android and web-based applications to enhance entomological surveillance. The research aimed to evaluate the technological-based development in enhancing entomological surveillance programs. Research and development design was used in this study with the Prototyping Method approach. Data was collected from interviews and document reviews. The data were used as the basis for making application prototypes, which will be tried to see shortcomings and then revised using a questionnaire. A total of 30 study samples were accidentally collected. The evaluation of the generated application was determined by variables such as usability, reliability, functionality, efficiency, maintainability, and portability. The research instrument deployed a questionnaire to get a quantitative value using a Likert scale for each variable, which was subsequently examined by univariate analysis. The study successfully developed a model for reporting mosquito larvae monitoring using an Android and web-based system, with the name of a CIBERNATIK android application. After carrying out testing both through questionnaires and interviews, the results of the feasibility of the application were excellent (83,3% usable, 83,3% reliable, 76,7% functional, 83,3% efficient, 70% maintainable, and 56% portable). CONCLUSION: The user can effectively implement the application, but further development is needed to integrate it into the Health Office program. The application serves as a database for real-time and easily accessible information on the density of larvae. Additionally, it functions as an early alert system for dengue control in Tanjungpinang City.

Abstract

Low back pain (LBP) is a prevalent condition during the third trimester of pregnancy that significantly impacts maternal quality of life. While physical activity is recommended, context-specific evidence regarding the effectiveness of standardized gym ball training in primary care settings, particularly in Indonesia, remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a standardized gym ball training program in reducing low back pain intensity among third-trimester pregnant women attending the Lubuk Alung Public Health Center, West Sumatra. A quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was employed. The study involved 16 third-trimester pregnant women who were selected through purposive sampling. Participants underwent a four-week intervention comprising eight sessions of supervised gym ball exercises (25–30 minutes per session). Pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the Paired Sample T-test. The baseline mean LBP intensity was 5.06 (SD = 0.68), indicating moderate pain. Post-intervention, the mean score significantly decreased to 1.19 (SD = 0.40), indicating mild pain (p < 0.001). The mean reduction was 3.87 points, representing a clinically significant improvement of approximately 76.5%. Standardized gym ball training is effective in significantly reducing low back pain intensity in third-trimester pregnant women. The intervention is feasible and safe for implementation in primary care settings as a non-pharmacological approach to improve maternal well-being.

Abstract

Anemia remains a critical public health issue among adolescent girls in Indonesia, particularly in semi-urban areas where data are limited. This cross-sectional study examined the association between knowledge, compliance with iron supplementation, and anemia prevalence among 60 menstruating adolescent girls aged 12–18 years in Kurao Pagang, Padang City, from August to September 2024. Data were collected via structured questionnaires assessing knowledge and compliance, alongside hemoglobin measurements to determine anemia status. Results showed that 63% of participants had high knowledge, and 68% reported compliance with supplementation, yet 25% were anemic. Anemia prevalence was significantly lower in girls with high knowledge (15.7%) compared to those with low knowledge (40.9%), with high knowledge reducing anemia risk (OR = 0.26, 95% CI: 0.08–0.84, p = 0.024). Compliance was even more strongly associated with reduced anemia prevalence (14.6% vs. 47.4%; OR = 0.12, 95% CI: 0.04–0.37, p < 0.001). Despite these associations, anemia persists, indicating additional factors such as diet and socioeconomic status contribute to its prevalence. Integrated educational and supplementation interventions are vital to effectively reduce anemia among adolescent girls in similar semi-urban settings.

Abstract

Adolescents with Special Needs often face barriers to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) information, and parents are key sources of guidance. This study evaluated the effect of audio-visual SRH education on parental knowledge in a special needs school setting. A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest study was conducted at a Sekolah Luar Biasa (SLB) or special needs school in rural area Indonesia (January-July 2023). Fifty parents were recruited by purposive sampling from a population of 96. Knowledge was measured using a structured questionnaire before and after an audio-visual education session. Differences in scores were tested using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test (alpha= 0.05). Most parents (68.0%) had previously received SRH information. Mean knowledge increased from 13.38 ± 3.016 at pretest to 19.52 ± 2.53 at posttest. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test showed a significant improvement (Z = -6.10, p < 0.001), with 49 participants improving and one unchanged (effect size r=0.86). Audio-visual education was associated with a significant improvement in parental SRH knowledge. Integrating multimedia-based education into school-parent collaboration may strengthen SRH support for adolescents with special needs.
