Abstract

Compliance of healthcare and medical personnel with established procedures—particularly Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)—is crucial for ensuring patient safety, high-quality healthcare services, and the sustainable operation of hospitals. This study analyzes the influence of Organizational Support, Motivation, and the Completeness of ERM SOPs on personnel compliance at Petrokimia Gresik Driyorejo Hospital. A quantitative approach using a survey method was employed. The study population included all healthcare and medical personnel directly involved with ERM SOPs. Through purposive sampling, 85 respondents were selected. Data collection used closed-ended questionnaires tested for validity and reliability. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression through SPSS version 25. The analysis found that Organizational Support (X1), Motivation (X2), and ERM SOP Completeness (X3) simultaneously had a statistically significant effect on Compliance (Y), with the F-test showing F_calculated > F_table and significance < 0.05. Individually, all three independent variables showed a positive and significant relationship with compliance. Among them, ERM SOP Completeness had the greatest influence, followed by Motivation and then Organizational Support. These findings emphasize that clear, comprehensive, and accessible SOPs are essential in guiding staff behavior and ensuring consistent adherence to risk management protocols. Additionally, motivated employees supported by the organization are more likely to comply with procedures and internal policies. Therefore, organizational strategies should not only focus on developing complete SOPs but also on fostering a supportive work culture and enhancing staff motivation through training, recognition, and leadership support. In conclusion, the study suggests that hospitals aiming to improve compliance with ERM procedures should adopt a holistic approach by investing in SOP development, providing consistent organizational support, and maintaining high levels of employee motivation. These efforts will contribute to better risk mitigation, service quality, and overall hospital performance.

Abstract

Employee performance is a critical determinant of service quality and operational success in hospitals. High-performing employees contribute directly to patient satisfaction, service efficiency, and overall institutional reputation. This study investigates the influence of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on the performance of employees at Petrokimia Gresik Hospital, aiming to provide empirical evidence to guide strategic human resource management in healthcare settings. A quantitative research design was employed, with data collected using structured questionnaires. The respondents consisted of 85 permanent employees selected through simple random sampling, ensuring that the sample fairly represented the hospital's workforce. The questionnaire was designed to measure aspects of both intrinsic motivation (such as self-fulfillment, recognition, and meaningful work) and extrinsic motivation (such as salary, benefits, and job security), along with indicators of employee performance. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis to examine the individual and joint effects of the motivational variables on performance. The results revealed that both intrinsic motivation (β = 0.532, p < 0.05) and extrinsic motivation (β = 0.487, p < 0.05) had a statistically significant and positive impact on employee performance. The model showed that the combination of these two factors accounted for 68.2% of the variation in employee performance (R² = 0.682), indicating a strong explanatory power. These findings underscore the importance of a balanced motivational strategy in hospital management. Relying solely on financial incentives is insufficient; efforts must also be made to cultivate a positive and fulfilling work environment. Therefore, hospital administrators are encouraged to design integrated motivation programs that address both intrinsic and extrinsic factors to enhance employee engagement, productivity, and ultimately, the quality of healthcare services provided.

Abstract

Indonesia is recognized as one of the world’s richest countries in terms of biodiversity, including a wide variety of traditional medicinal plants. One of the lesser-known yet promising local species is matoa (Pometia pinnata J.R. Forst & G. Forst), whose leaves have been traditionally used by local communities to treat various ailments, including diarrhea and seizures. This study aims to investigate the pharmacological effects of matoa leaf extract, with a particular focus on its anticonvulsant activity, while also reviewing its potential chemical constituents as a basis for herbal medicine development. The research was conducted using a combination of literature review and experimental testing on mice (Mus musculus) induced with strychnine to trigger seizures. Key observed parameters included seizure onset time and survival duration (dead time) following the administration of either synthetic drugs or matoa leaf extract. The results demonstrated that the matoa leaf extract exhibited significant anticonvulsant effects, as indicated by prolonged seizure onset and increased survival time in test animals. These pharmacological effects are presumed to be related to the presence of active compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, and alkaloids, which may contribute to the stabilization of the central nervous system. Compared to conventional synthetic anticonvulsants, matoa leaf extract may offer a safer, plant-based alternative with potentially fewer side effects. The findings of this study provide valuable scientific evidence supporting the potential of Pometia pinnata leaves in the development of Indonesian herbal phytopharmaceuticals. Furthermore, they highlight the importance of further research, including preclinical and clinical trials, to validate efficacy, determine optimal dosages, and ensure safety for human use.

Abstract

The Emergency Department (ED) plays a pivotal role as the frontline of hospital services, requiring rapid and accurate response to ensure patient safety and optimal care outcomes. This study aims to analyze the influence of nurse competence and inter-team coordination on the effectiveness of patient transfers from ED to inpatient units, with nurse work motivation as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach was employed with hypothesis testing using path analysis (Structural Equation Modeling - SEM). The study was conducted at Graha Juanda Hospital, Bekasi, involving a sample of 55 nurses selected through total sampling from both the ED and inpatient departments.Primary data were collected through structured questionnaires, and data analysis was performed using SPSS 26 The results demonstrate that nurse competence and team coordination significantly affect service effectiveness, both directly and indirectly through work motivation. The findings also indicate that low work motivation—linked to factors such as limited professional development opportunities and unbalanced workloads—contributes to delays in transferring patients to inpatient care, with the average Length of Stay (LOS) exceeding six hours.The study concludes that improving nurse competence, strengthening inter-team coordination, and enhancing nurse motivation are critical strategies to improve the quality and timeliness of emergency services. This integrated internal performance approach is vital for reducing LOS in the ED and ensuring seamless, patient-centered care transitions.

Abstract

Examinations in radiology installations have increased annually, resulting in a higher risk of radiation hazards to staff, particularly in interventional, conventional X-ray, and CT-Scan environments. Furthermore, not all hospitals are equipped with radiation survey meter monitoring devices. Therefore, an innovative radiation exposure monitoring system based on the Internet of Things (IoT) was developed. This study aims to: (1) develop an IoT-based radiation exposure monitoring system, (2) evaluate the device’s performance, and (3) assess the effectiveness of the system. The research method used was research and development (R&D), which included preliminary information gathering, product planning and development, expert validation, device performance testing, effectiveness testing, and final outcomes. This system was developed for real-time radiation dose monitoring.  The product development involved a Geiger-Muller M4011, an ESP32 microcontroller, and a Node-Red web application. Performance testing of the IoT-based radiation exposure monitoring device and a standard survey meter in CT-Scan and conventional X-ray rooms used the T-Test and Mann-Whitney tests. The results showed p-values > 0.05, indicating no significant difference between the two devices. Effectiveness testing through pre-test and post-test questionnaires demonstrated improved usability—namely flexibility, operability, learnability, and understandability—with an N-Gain value of 78.95%, indicating effectiveness. In conclusion, the IoT-based radiation exposure monitoring system proved effective and feasible for real-time radiation dose monitoring in radiology installations, offering advantages in IoT-based data integration, ease of access, and structured data recording. In addition to performance testing, the system was evaluated in terms of its integration with hospital infrastructure. It was designed to provide real-time radiation dose monitoring, automatically updating the dose data and sending alerts when safe exposure levels are exceeded. The system also enables remote monitoring, making it easier for radiology departments to oversee radiation safety without the need for direct physical checks.

Abstract

Urological examinations using Multi Slice Computed Tomography (MSCT) often require the use of diuretic agents to enhance the visualization of the urinary tract system. However, the use of synthetic pharmacological agents may sometimes lead to undesirable side effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of ginger extract (Zingiber officinale) as a natural diuretic alternative in MSCT urological examinations. This research utilized an experimental design, comparing two groups: one that was given ginger extract before the examination and another control group that did not receive any additional treatment. Key parameters observed included the degree of urinary tract distension, MSCT image quality, and the smoothness of contrast media excretion. The results indicated that the administration of ginger extract significantly increased the degree of ureteral and urinary bladder distension, leading to improved image visualization quality compared to the control group. These findings suggest that ginger extract can serve as a promising natural diuretic alternative for MSCT urological examinations. However, further studies with larger sample sizes are necessary to confirm the validity and reproducibility of these results. Ginger extract offers an innovative and potentially safer approach to improving the effectiveness of MSCT scans without the side effects associated with synthetic diuretics.

Abstract

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) with Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) is a non-invasive technique commonly used to assess cerebral perfusion, especially in stroke patients. However, ASL images often suffer from low contrast and high noise, which can hinder diagnostic accuracy in visualizing perfusion areas and detecting ischemic lesions. Image enhancement techniques, such as the unsharp mask, offer a potential solution to improve image quality. The effectiveness of this enhancement depends on the kernel size used in the unsharp mask filter. This study evaluates the impact of different kernel sizes (3×3, 5×5, and 7×7) on the quality of ASL brain images, focusing on both quantitative and qualitative improvements. A total of 63 ASL brain MRI images from stroke patients were processed using unsharp mask filters with the three kernel sizes. Quantitative analysis measured Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and Contrast-to-Noise Ratio (CNR), while qualitative assessment involved three radiologists independently evaluating five aspects of image quality: perfusion area clarity, grey-white matter contrast, ischemic lesion boundary visibility, noise level, and overall visual quality. Statistical tests, including Friedman and Wilcoxon, were applied to compare results across the kernel sizes. Results revealed that the 3×3 kernel achieved the best results in both quantitative and qualitative assessments, with the highest SNR, CNR, and visual quality scores. Significant differences (p < 0.05) were found between kernel sizes, confirming the superiority of the 3×3 kernel. The 7×7 kernel reduced noise but caused oversmoothing, negatively impacting image sharpness. In conclusion, the 3×3 kernel provides an optimal balance between noise reduction and edge preservation, enhancing ASL brain image quality for stroke diagnosis.

Abstract

Magnetic Resonance Cholangio Pancreatography (MRCP) is an important non-invasive imaging technique for the diagnosis of abnormalities in the biliary and pancreatic systems, including pancreatic mass and colletiasis. The use of an additional sequence of Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) with b-value variations and image segmentation is thought to improve the accuracy of mass limit measurements on MRCP checks. This study aims to analyze the effect of b-value variation and image segmentation on the additional sequence of DWI in the MRCP examination of the accuracy of the mass limit measurement. The research used quantitative methods with MRCP image data capture equipped with a DWI sequence with b-value variations, using the matlab method. Image segmentation is performed to identify mass boundaries. Measurement accuracy is analyzed and compared between the variation in b-value and the segmentation techniques used. Research results show that variation of b-value 800 and image segmentation in additional DWI sequences have a significant effect on the improvement of accuracy of mass limit measurement on MRCP examinations. The b-value 800 variation is more optimal than the b-value 50 and the appropriate segmentation method can clarify the mass limit so that it supports a more accurate diagnosis. Sequence variations in b-value and image segmentation in the additional DWI sequences in MRCP examinations play an important role in improving the accuracy of mass limit measurements, which can aid in the diagnosis and management of diseases especially in lesion cases.
