Abstract

The Integrated Health Center is a community-based health initiative that aims to empower and facilitate the community's access to essential health services to reduce maternal mortality rate (MMR) and infant/child mortality rate. However, there is a need to increase the number of visits from mothers with toddlers to the Integrated Health Center, aiming for a 41% participation rate. This study seeks to investigate the role of cadres in promoting the involvement of mothers' toddlers in the Integrated Health Center program and to identify the factors that impact their participation rate. Conducted using a qualitative approach with a case study design and purposive sampling focusing on cadres, the data was gathered through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions (FGD), utilizing source and method triangulation for comprehensive insight. The findings indicate that cadres in the community serve as motivators, educators, and health service providers. They can recognize needs, address barriers, and facilitate the provision of health services. In addition to the cadres at the Integrated Health Posts (Posyandu), factors such as education level, economic status, and accessibility to health facilities play a role in the participation of mothers with toddlers in the Posyandu program. This research underscores the essential role of Posyandu cadres in encouraging the engagement of mothers with toddlers.

Abstract

Pregnancy classes are crucial for helping pregnant women address the physical and mental challenges they face, which can affect the birthing process. However, many women do not attend these classes. This research analyzes the factors influencing maternal behavior regarding participation in pregnancy classes.This quantitative study employs a cross-sectional approach, involving 403 pregnant women as subjects. A simple random sampling method was used to select 80 participants, with data collected through interviews. The Chi-Square test was utilized for data analysis.Findings indicate that 87.5% of pregnant women had low education levels, while 66.3% displayed good knowledge about pregnancy. Most participants (71.3%) reported inadequate facilities and infrastructure, though 66.3% received support from their husbands. Additionally, 66.3% of women were not actively involved in the classes. A significant relationship was found between education (p=0.010), knowledge (p=0.010), facilities (p=0.000), and husband's support (p=0.000) with participation in pregnancy classes. It is recommended that pregnant women actively engage in these classes voluntarily. Community health centers should enhance awareness to encourage participation, enabling early detection of pregnancy and childbirth complications.

Abstract

Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is caused by the dengue virus transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito. In 2022, Indonesia reported 45,387 dengue cases, resulting in 432 deaths. The knowledge of housewives influences the prevalence of DHF; those with better knowledge tend to exhibit more effective prevention behaviors. This study assessed the relationship between DHF knowledge and 5M-Plus behavior among housewives in the Pakisaji Health Center area, Malang Regency. This study employed a cross-sectional analytic observational design and included 270 respondents, with a sample size of 124 obtained through convenience sampling. The research utilized a questionnaire and analyzed data using Spearman's test. Results indicated that 80.6% of respondents had good knowledge of dengue, while 33.9% demonstrated sufficient 5M-Plus behavior. Spearman's test revealed a significant relationship between dengue knowledge and 5M-Plus behavior among housewives (r = 0.188, p = 0.037). Those with strong knowledge more readily understand and implement 5M-Plus practices. Future research should explore the link between dengue knowledge and the motivation of housewives to eliminate dengue mosquito nests.
