Abstract

During the third trimester of pregnancy, various physiological and psychological changes occur that can lead to poor sleep quality, such as back pain, increased nocturnal urination, and anxiety before childbirth. These conditions may negatively affect both maternal and fetal health if not properly managed. One of the recommended non-pharmacological interventions is prenatal yoga. This study aimed to determine the effect of prenatal yoga on sleep quality among third trimester pregnant women in the working area of Mulyoasri Village Auxiliary Health Center. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a Non-Equivalent Control Group Design. A total of 30 respondents were selected using purposive sampling and divided into two groups: 15 in the intervention group and 15 in the control group. Sleep quality was measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Data were analyzed using the Paired Sample t-test. The results showed that all respondents in the intervention group (100%) had poor sleep quality during the pretest. After receiving prenatal yoga intervention, 53.3% of respondents improved to good sleep quality. Statistical analysis showed a p-value of <0.001, indicating a significant effect. Meanwhile, the control group showed no significant change (p=0.670). In conclusion, prenatal yoga is an effective non-pharmacological intervention to improve sleep quality in third trimester pregnant women through both physiological and psychological relaxation mechanisms.

Abstract

Service quality is a fundamental indicator in evaluating hospital performance. Nurses have frequent interaction with patients, so the quality of nursing care is the primary determinant of hospital service quality. This study aims to identify the influence of clinical competence and workload on the quality of nursing care and nurse performance in hospitals through literature analysis. The design uses a literature review approach guided by the PRISMA procedure. Articles are collected using search engines such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. The articles used were published from 2018-2025 that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria (n=14). Based on the collected articles, high workload is associated with low self-efficacy, fatigue, and decreased nursing competence, which negatively affect nurses' quality and performance. A competent nurse manager effectively improves the nurses' work environment, reduces missed care, and improves the quality of care. Some studies report the positive effects of clinical competence and motivation on nursing performance. In contrast, the effects of workload vary; some studies have not found a significant direct impact due to adaptive factors (n=3). Excessive workload increases emotional fatigue, which mediates a decrease in the quality of care. Clinical competence and workload are the main factors affecting the quality of nursing care and nurses' performance in hospitals. High clinical competence optimizes task execution and patient recovery; conversely, excessive workload leads to chronic fatigue, which then reduces the quality of care and nursing performance.

Abstract

Adolescence is a crucial stage in reproductive health development, characterized by physical, psychological, and social changes. Inadequate knowledge and attitudes regarding reproductive health may increase adolescents' vulnerability to risky behaviors. This study aimed to determine the effect of reproductive health education delivered through video media on the knowledge and attitudes of adolescent girls at SMK NU Donomulyo. This quantitative study employed a pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design. A total of 30 adolescent girls were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using validated knowledge and attitude questionnaires administered before and after the intervention. The intervention consisted of reproductive health education delivered through educational videos via a WhatsApp group. Data were analyzed using the Paired Sample t-test. The results showed that participants' knowledge improved from predominantly poor (66.7%) before the intervention to predominantly good (80.0%) after the intervention, while attitudes improved from predominantly sufficient (66.7%) to good (96.7%). The Paired Sample t-test demonstrated significant improvements in both knowledge (mean difference = -1.500; t = -7.644; p < 0.001) and attitude (mean difference = -11.400; t = -9.630; p < 0.001) following the intervention. These findings indicate that reproductive health education delivered through video media is effective in improving knowledge and fostering positive attitudes among adolescent girls. Therefore, educational video media can be considered an effective and engaging approach for adolescent reproductive health education.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Tuberculosis disease is still a serious global public health problem characterized by high incidence, morbidity, and mortality that requires special attention and ongoing intervention from various parties.  Therefore, the implementation of  the Directly Observed Treatment Shortcourse (DOTS) strategy is one of the efforts to control TB that has proven to be effective globally in overcoming the problem of tuberculosis disease. The Sangurara Health Center Working Area has a high incidence of TB cases and there are still challenges in achieving optimal treatment success. Of the 13 existing health centers, Sangurara Health Center is the health center with the highest number of TB cases in Palu City.  This condition shows the importance of identifying specific factors that can affect the success of the TB program in this Working Area.  This study aims to analyze the relationship between treatment regularity, knowledge of tuberculosis and DOTS, and the role of PMO with treatment success. This type of research is quantitative with an analytical survey design and a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study is all TB patients who have successfully treated or failed in 2023 in the Sangurara Health Center Working Area of 53 people, with questionnaires as a data collection instrument. The results showed that the variables of regularity of treatment (p = 0.000), knowledge of TB and DOTS (p = 0.000), and the role of PMO (p = 0.000) had a significant relationship with the success of treatment of TB patients. The conclusion of this study is that the Directly Observed Treatment Shortcourse Strategy  has a significant relationship with the Success of Treatment of Tuberculosis Patients in the Working Area of the Sangurara Health Center, Palu City.

Abstract

Penyusunan perencanaan pada dinas kesehatan kabupaten masih menghadapi persoalan fragmentasi data dan lemahnya kapasitas analisis prediktif. Persoalan ini diperberat oleh keterbatasan integrasi antar-dokumen perencanaan (RPJMD, Renstra, Renja, dan hasil Musrenbang). Kabupaten Majene, Provinsi Sulawesi Barat, sebagai daerah dengan prevalensi stunting tertinggi di provinsinya (mencapai 40,6% pada 2022), menggambarkan kebutuhan mendesak akan perencanaan berbasis bukti. Penelitian ini bertujuan menelaah secara sistematis bagaimana Artificial Intelligence (AI) dapat dimanfaatkan untuk memecahkan masalah penyusunan perencanaan kesehatan terintegrasi pada tingkat pemerintah daerah. Metode: studi ini menggunakan pendekatan Systematic Literature Review (SLR) mengikuti protokol PRISMA 2020 terhadap artikel terindeks Scopus, PubMed/MEDLINE, dan basis data nasional pada rentang 2018–2025. Dari proses seleksi diperoleh 22 artikel (n = 22) yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi, kemudian dianalisis dengan kerangka Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). Hasil: AI berkontribusi pada empat fungsi perencanaan, yaitu (1) integrasi dan pembersihan data lintas-sumber, (2) peramalan kebutuhan layanan dan beban penyakit, (3) optimalisasi alokasi sumber daya dan distribusi tenaga kesehatan, serta (4) dukungan pengambilan keputusan berbasis bukti. Tantangan utama meliputi kesiapan infrastruktur digital, tata kelola dan kualitas data, kompetensi sumber daya manusia, serta aspek etika dan regulasi. Kesimpulan: pemanfaatan AI berpotensi memperkuat perencanaan kesehatan terintegrasi pada Dinas Kesehatan Kabupaten Majene apabila diterapkan secara bertahap melalui kesiapan sistem (system readiness), penguatan tata kelola data, dan peningkatan kapasitas SDM.

Abstract

Neonatal jaundice is a common condition in newborns caused by elevated bilirubin levels due to immature liver function. Phototherapy is the primary treatment to reduce bilirubin levels and can be administered intermittently or continuously. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of intermittent and continuous phototherapy in reducing bilirubin levels among neonates with jaundice in the Perinatology Ward of Brawijaya University Hospital, Malang. This study employed a quasi-experimental design using a non-equivalent control group design. The sample consisted of 30 neonates, with 15 assigned to the intermittent phototherapy group and 15 to the continuous phototherapy group. Data were analyzed using the Shapiro–Wilk normality test, Paired Sample t-test, and Mann–Whitney test. The mean bilirubin level in the intermittent phototherapy group decreased from 15.82 mg/dL before the intervention to 10.94 mg/dL after the intervention, while the continuous phototherapy group showed a decrease from 15.67 mg/dL to 10.61 mg/dL. Both intermittent and continuous phototherapy significantly reduced bilirubin levels after treatment. However, there was no statistically significant difference in effectiveness between the two methods based on the Mann–Whitney test (p = 0.713). In conclusion, intermittent and continuous phototherapy are equally effective in reducing bilirubin levels in neonates with jaundice and may be selected according to the neonate's clinical condition and hospital policy..

Abstract

Pruritus kronik merupakan salah satu manifestasi dermatologis yang sering ditemukan tetapi masih kurang mendapat perhatian pada pasien Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Kondisi ini tidak hanya menurunkan kualitas hidup pasien, tetapi juga berkaitan dengan gangguan tidur, stres psikologis, serta peningkatan morbiditas kronik. Berbagai penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pruritus kronik pada diabetes melitus tipe 2 memiliki mekanisme multifaktorial yang melibatkan inflamasi sistemik, stres oksidatif, neuropati perifer, serta gangguan sawar kulit. Hiperglikemia kronik diketahui meningkatkan produksi sitokin proinflamasi seperti interleukin-6 (IL-6) dan tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) yang berperan dalam proses neuroinflamasi dan aktivasi jalur pruritogenik . Artikel ini merupakan narrative narrative reviewyang bertujuan menganalisis peran inflamasi sistemik sebagai prediktor pruritus kronik pada pasien diabetes melitus tipe 2 melalui pendekatan multidisiplin penyakit dalam, dermatologi, anestesi, dan farmakologi. Penelusuran literatur dilakukan melalui database PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, dan Google Scholar menggunakan kata kunci terkait diabetes melitus tipe 2, inflamasi sistemik, neuroinflamasi, dan pruritus kronik. Literatur yang digunakan merupakan artikel publikasi tahun 2014–2025 yang relevan dengan topik penelitian. Hasil telaah menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan inflamasi sistemik dan stres oksidatif berhubungan erat dengan aktivasi serabut saraf perifer, xerosis kulit, gangguan mikrosirkulasi, dan kerusakan sawar kulit yang berkontribusi terhadap munculnya pruritus kronik. Selain itu, pendekatan terapi modern mulai berkembang ke arah penggunaan neuromodulator, antioksidan, serta terapi berbasis sitokin inflamasi untuk meningkatkan kualitas hidup pasien diabetes dengan pruritus kronik . Disimpulkan bahwa inflamasi sistemik memiliki peran penting dalam patogenesis pruritus kronik pada diabetes melitus tipe 2. Pendekatan multidisiplin diperlukan untuk memahami mekanisme penyakit secara lebih komprehensif serta mendukung pengembangan strategi terapi yang lebih efektif dan individual.
