Abstract

Immunization is one of the most effective public health interventions in preventing infectious diseases and reducing mortality and morbidity in the global population, with the potential to prevent 3 to 3.5 million deaths each year from vaccine-preventable diseases. In Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs), including Indonesia, vaccination coverage for children under five years old still shows low numbers.  The low vaccination coverage is partly caused by the use of manual recording systems, which leads to delays in decision-making processes in immunization management. This study seeks to address this issue by developing a UI/UX prototype design for a toddler immunization information system. The proposed UI/UX design is equipped with features to monitor and record immunization activities in a particular region in real time, enabling effective, accurate, and integrated decision-making and implementation of immunization programs at both regional and national levels. The UI/UX design was developed using the User-Centered Design (UCD) method, which actively involves users throughout the process. Usability testing was conducted using the System Usability Scale (SUS) method. The results indicate that the designed UI/UX meets the standard requirements of public health centers and achieves satisfactory outcomes from prospective users. The contribution of this research is the proposed UI/UX design for immunization monitoring. In the future, this UI/UX design can serve as a foundation for the development of an Immunization Monitoring Information System.

Abstract

Malnutrition, particularly stunting, remains a significant public health concern in Indonesia. In Jember Regency, the prevalence of stunting in 2024 reached 11.4%, which is notably higher than the East Java provincial average of 5.1%. Despite various intervention efforts, the reduction in stunting cases has not been significant, largely due to the lack of evidence-based approaches. This study aimed to analyze the spatial distribution of stunting cases using a geospatial approach. Data were obtained from the electronic Community-Based Nutrition Recording and Reporting System (e-PPGBM) of the Jember District Health Office for the years 2024–2025. The unit of analysis was 31 sub-districts in Jember Regency. Spatial analysis was conducted using Quantum GIS (QGIS) version 3.40.2. In 2024, 58% sub-districts were categorized as very high prevalence, 19.4% sub-districts as high, 19.4% sub-districts as moderate, and 3.2% sub-districts as low. In 2025, the distribution shifted, with 32.3% sub-districts categorized as very high, 25.8% sub-districts as high, 25.8% sub-districts as moderate, and 16.1% sub-districts as low. Trend analysis revealed that 12.9% sub-districts experienced an increase in stunting cases, 41.9% sub-districts remained unchanged, and 45.2% sub-districts showed a decline. Regarding the spatial relationship between regional distance and stunting incidence, urban and coastal areas tend to have fewer cases than highlands areas. Research findings indicate that this is due to limited access to animal protein sources, particularly seafood. Most residents rely on their own livestock products, such as eggs, chicken, and others. Prioritizing interventions in areas with high and very high prevalence rates while strengthening programs to sustain regions with low stunting cases, supported by enhanced geospatial analysis in nutritional surveillance to enable more effective stunting reduction strategies.

Abstract

Heart disease remains a major contributor to global mortality, highlighting the importance of effective early detection systems that can assist both clinicians and general users. This study develops a heart disease prediction model based on the XGBoost algorithm and deploys it within a web-based application to enhance accessibility and practical usability. The research uses a dataset of 918 instances containing 12 demographic and clinical features commonly associated with cardiovascular risk. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to assess feature relevance, revealing that ExerciseAngina, Oldpeak, ST_Slope, Age, and MaxHR exhibit the strongest correlations with the HeartDisease outcome. These findings align with established clinical evidence on exercise-induced angina, ST-segment depression, and cardiac functional capacity. Following preprocessing and feature encoding, the XGBoost model was trained and evaluated. The model achieved strong predictive performance, with 88.26% accuracy, 88.32% precision, 91.66% recall, an F1-score of 89.96%, and an ROC-AUC of 0.93. The results demonstrate that XGBoost effectively discriminates between positive and negative cases and provides a good balance between sensitivity and precision. To enable real-world applicability, the final model was deployed on a Flask backend and integrated into a web application that allows users to input clinical parameters and receive real-time predictions. System testing confirmed that the application accurately delivers outputs and functions reliably across different input conditions. Overall, this study shows the feasibility of combining machine learning with web technologies to support early, accessible heart disease screening. Future work will involve usability testing and validation using real patient data to further strengthen the system’s clinical relevance.

Abstract

Jember Regency has a high maternal mortality rate (MMR) in East Java Province. Meanwhile, Arjasa Village, Jember is a partner village of Jember State Polytechnic which has the same health problem. In previous research, the e-posyandu application had not developed a system that could detect high-risk pregnant women. The purpose of this study was to optimize E-Posyandu through the Digitalization of the Poedji Rochjati Score Card (KSPR) in Detecting the Risk of Maternal in Arjasa, Jember. Methods: This was a research and development study. The sample were 15 cadres from integrated service posts in Arjasa village. The system was developed using the waterfall method. The results showed that the system’s development of e-Posyandu through the digitalization of the Poedji Rochjati Score Card (KSPR) is able to detect early high-risk pregnant women with three categories: low-risk pregnancy (KRR), high-risk pregnancy (KRT) and very high-risk pregnancy (KRST). High-risk and very high-risk pregnant women are then reported to the village midwife and the Community Health Center to get a referral to the hospital to prevent maternal mortality. Conclusion: This system has been tested with a system accuracy result of 93%, response time of <10 seconds, and user satisfaction with this system reached 87%, so it can increase the efficiency of cadres and midwives in reporting the results of early detection of high-risk pregnant women in real time to the Community Health Center. Recommendation: improve the system by shortening response time, increasing user satisfaction and increase sample size all Posyandu in Jember Regency for future research.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) remains a significant public health challenge in Indonesia, with rising prevalence and limited access to personalized nutritional care. The Nutrition Care Centre (NCC) at Jember State Polytechnic offers diet consultation and education services but faces constraints in human resources and client reach, with only 23% of visitation targets met since 2021. To address this gap, this study aims to develop VANESA, a virtual assistant powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and QR code technology to provide accessible, efficient, and contextual education and consultation services for DM patients. The system integrates rule-based and AI-based chatbot functionalities to deliver natural language responses regarding DM management, including dietary guidance, physical activity, and basic treatment advice. It also facilitates telehealth consultations, automated registration via QR code, and seamless integration with the existing Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system. Developed using the Waterfall model of SDLC, VANESA is designed to enhance service accessibility, reduce operational costs, and support continuous monitoring of patient nutritional status. Expected outcomes include a web-based admin system, an AI-driven Q&A chatbot, telehealth features, QR-based registration, and an analytics dashboard. This innovation not only supports the Teaching Factory NCC but also serves as a scalable model for digital health interventions in resource-limited settings. Thus, VANESA is a digital health solution that has a direct and applicable impact, is able to increase service efficiency, expand the reach of nutritional interventions, and can be replicated and scaled sustainably in various health facilities, especially in areas with limited resources.

Abstract

Modern dietary patterns have increased children’s consumption of processed foods containing food additives, namely preservatives, flavor enhancers, sweeteners, and colorants (4Ps), which may increase the risk of degenerative diseases in the future. Although many studies discuss unhealthy food consumption among children, limited educational media specifically address food additives in a form that is engaging and suitable for elementary school students. This study aimed to fill this gap by developing an animated educational video on 4P foods as an innovative medium for school-based health promotion. This study used a Research and Development (R&D) approach with the 4D model (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate) and applied a pre-test–post-test design to evaluate its effectiveness. The developed animation was validated by media and material experts and then tested on 23 elementary school students to assess feasibility, acceptance, and knowledge improvement. The results showed that the animation was highly feasible and well accepted by students. Students reported that the video was interesting, easy to understand, and helpful in learning about healthy food choices. After watching the video, students’ knowledge about food additives increased compared to before the intervention, indicating that the animation effectively supported learning. This study demonstrates that animated educational media can be an effective and practical tool for school health promotion, helping teachers deliver health messages in an engaging way and supporting early prevention of unhealthy eating habits among children.

Abstract

Accurate identification of red blood cell (RBC) morphological abnormalities is essential for anemia screening and hematological assessment; however, manual microscopic examination remains time-consuming, subjective, and highly dependent on expert availability. While recent deep learning studies have demonstrated promising accuracy in RBC classification, many focus primarily on model performance without addressing practical deployment constraints or system-level integration for routine laboratory use. In this study, a web-based prototype system for automated RBC abnormality classification is proposed using a lightweight MobileNetV2 architecture. The dataset consisted of 1,320 microscopic blood smear images collected from Klinik & Laboratorium Parahita in Jember and Surabaya, covering six RBC categories with balanced class distribution. All images were anonymized and verified by a certified clinical pathologist prior to use. The model was trained using transfer learning and evaluated on a held-out test set to assess generalization performance. The proposed model achieved a test accuracy of 89.77%, with consistent precision, recall, and F1-score across classes, indicating reliable multi-class classification performance. Analysis of misclassified samples revealed uncertainty primarily between morphologically similar RBC types, reflected by lower confidence scores. These results demonstrate that lightweight deep learning models can provide effective and efficient support for RBC morphology analysis when integrated into an accessible web-based system. The proposed approach contributes a deployment-oriented diagnostic support tool that has the potential to assist laboratory professionals by improving screening efficiency and consistency while preserving clinical oversight.

Abstract

HIV cases among adolescents in Indonesia have been on the rise recently. Moderate to severe depressive symptoms are reported to be experienced by adolescents living with HIV, which coincides with this increase in cases. This suggests that it is essential to initiate strategic initiatives to enhance the efficacy of the initial screening process by implementing application-based HIV risk group identification through the use of psychological approaches. Designing a user interface that is appropriately structured and meets user requirements is crucial to ensuring the effectiveness of the application being developed. This investigation involved the assessment of feature requirements by HIV disease counselors and psychologists in accordance with the Human-Centered Design (HCD) methodology. Counselors who specialize in HIV disease contribute to the query elements utilized in the initial screening assessment. Meanwhile, psychologists contribute to the approval of the questions utilized as an initial screening test, which affects the psychological well-being and accuracy of adolescent users. The stages adopted for the implementation of HCD were modified in accordance with ISO 9241-210. This research generated user personas, use case diagrams, and the User Interface (UI) design for the VitaMind application, which is primarily designed for pre-test screening. This is a multiplatform application that comprises both web-based and mobile components. This application design has been tested using the system usability scale (SUS) method and produced an accuracy score of 86.1%. The primary contribution and novelty of this research lies in the application of Human-Centered Design principles to the development of a mental health-focused, pre-test HIV screening application tailored for students. Usability testing, employing the System Usability Scale (SUS) method, yielded results demonstrating a high degree of usability.

Abstract

Current PROLANIS screening workflows at primary healthcare facilities remain predominantly manual and complex, characterized by lengthy registration processes, laboratory examinations, medical consultations, therapeutic exercises, health education sessions, and pharmacy visits. These inefficiencies result in prolonged patient queues, duplicate documentation, delayed data aggregation, and excessive workload for healthcare personnel, ultimately compromising program effectiveness and participant satisfaction. This study addresses these challenges through the development of a web-based self-health screening kiosk utilizing a Research and Development (R&D) approach with a prototyping model. System evaluation focused specifically on user interface/experience (UI/UX) feasibility, rather than clinical effectiveness, involving six PROLANIS officers from Sidorejo Lor and Sidorejo Kidul Community Health Centers using a structured assessment instrument. Results yielded an average score of 4.0 (out of 5), indicating good design consistency, responsiveness, and functionality, though improvements remain necessary in ease of use and visual layout. The prototype demonstrates potential to enhance PROLANIS efficiency but requires broader clinical validation and system integration testing.

Abstract

A nutritional status assessment system is an electronic health information system that records toddler growth based on age-specific weight and height measurements. Parents may not always maintain appropriate scheduling or regular visits for periodic monitoring at healthcare facilities. This study presents a usability evaluation of a web-based nutritional monitoring system that implements an Electronic Growth Monitoring Card (e-KMS). Users interact with the system through a user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) designed to support effective interaction. The main contribution of this study is the empirical validation of the usability level of a web-based e-KMS in a healthcare context using the System Usability Scale (SUS). The evaluation involved 20 respondents, consisting of parent representatives and daycare teachers or administrators as e-KMS users, and employed 10 SUS statements measured on a five-point Likert scale. The SUS analysis yielded a score of 77.78, indicating a good and acceptable level of usability. These findings demonstrate that the developed e-KMS is suitable for supporting digital-based monitoring of toddler nutritional status in healthcare services.
