Mindfulness-based strategies holds promise for mitigating these consequences by enhancing self-compassion, self-esteem and coping levels in women who have experienced violence. The study aimed to assess the efficacy of mindfulness strategies in the reduction of DV among couples.Objective: The study aimed to assess the efficacy of mindfulness strategies in the reduction of DV among couples.Methods: The study design was a one-group pretest-posttest design conducted on forty-eight respondents over a period of 12 weeks. It utilized a non-probability sampling method with the aid of structure-interviewer administered questionnaire before and after the intervention. Data obtained were analyzed using SPSS version 25.Results: The overall level of knowledge of domestic violence was good. Factors influencing domestic violence include substance abuse (100%), job loss (83.3%), poverty and stress (95.8%), gender preferences and inequality (87.5%) and mental illness (85.4%). There was a statistically significant difference between the score of mindfulness before intervention and after intervention (p value of 0.001) and 68.8% of the respondents were improved with the mindfulness strategies.Conclusion: This study provides preliminary evidence that mindfulness strategies may reduce DV among low-income Nigerian couples. It is recommendation that this technique be employed in various settings including religious centers, counselling units and couple’s forums to reduce the incidence of domestic violence related issues among couples.

Abstract

Background: Nurses working in inpatient wards are required to deliver continuous and comprehensive nursing care. This condition often results in a high workload, which is frequently associated with an increased risk of burnout. Burnout among nurses can negatively affect their well-being, job performance, and the quality of patient care, making it an important occupational health issue in hospital settings.Objective: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between workload and burnout among nurses working in the Malaqbi 2 and Malaqbi 3 inpatient wards at the Provincial General Hospital of West Sulawesi.Methods: A cross-sectional study design was employed, involving 46 nurses selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire consisting of a workload measurement instrument and a burnout instrument adapted from the Maslach Burnout Inventory. Data analysis included univariate analysis to describe respondent characteristics and variable distributions, and bivariate analysis using the Spearman correlation test to examine the relationship between workload and burnout.Results: The findings revealed that the majority of nurses experienced a heavy workload, while most respondents reported mild levels of burnout. Statistical analysis showed no significant relationship between workload and burnout (p = 0.200), although a weak positive correlation was identified between the two variables.Conclusion: The study indicates that nurse burnout is not solely influenced by workload but is also affected by other factors, including individual characteristics, work environment, and organizational support. Hospital management is therefore encouraged to implement comprehensive strategies focusing on workload management, psychological support, and improvement of the work environment to prevent burnout and enhance nurses’ well-being and quality of care.

Abstract

Background: Professional nursing students are exposed to demanding academic and clinical responsibilities that may increase stress levels and negatively impact mental health, academic achievement, and clinical performance. Identifying stress-related factors is crucial to support students throughout their professional education.Objective: This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with stress levels among professional nursing students at the Institute of Health Sciences Pelamonia Makassar.Methods: This study employed a quantitative analytical approach with a cross-sectional design conducted from August to September 2025. The study population included 112 professional nursing students selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire measuring stress associated with patient care, clinical instructors and nursing staff, academic tasks and workload, peers and daily life, lack of knowledge and skills, and the clinical practice environment. Stress levels were classified as mild, moderate, and severe. The Chi-square test was used for data analysis.Results: The results demonstrated that stress related to clinical instructors and nursing staff, academic tasks and workload, peers and daily life, lack of knowledge and skills, and the clinical practice environment were significantly associated with students’ stress levels (p < 0.05). However, stress related to patient care showed no significant association with stress levels (p > 0.05).Conclusion: Academic, social, and environmental factors predominantly influence stress levels among professional nursing students. Therefore, strengthening academic support, improving clinical supervision, and fostering a supportive clinical learning environment are recommended to help reduce student stress.

Abstract

Background: Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways characterized by shortness of breath, cough, and wheezing, which can result in an ineffective breathing pattern. One of the therapies used to manage this condition is oxygen therapy. Oxygen therapy, particularly using a nasal cannula, is a non-pharmacological nursing intervention aimed at improving ventilation and patients’ oxygenation status.Objective: To determine the effectiveness of oxygen therapy (nasal cannula) in improving ineffective breathing patterns in asthma patients in the pulmonary care unit of RSUD Kota Baubau.Methods: This study employed a descriptive case study design involving one patient. The instruments used included the standard operating procedure (SOP) for oxygen administration, a pulse oximeter, an observation sheet, and a nursing care format. The intervention was carried out for 3 × 24 hours, with oxygen therapy administered twice daily for 15 minutes at a flow rate of 2–4 liters per minute according to the procedure.Results: After three days of therapy from May 29 to May 31, 2025, the patient’s respiratory rate decreased from 28 breaths per minute to 23 breaths per minute. The patient’s breathing pattern improved from irregular to regular. The use of accessory respiratory muscles decreased, wheezing was still present but with reduced frequency, and complaints of shortness of breath were reduced.Conclusion: Oxygen therapy using a nasal cannula is effective in improving ineffective breathing patterns in asthma patients, as indicated by a decreased respiratory rate and improved breathing patterns. This intervention can be used as one of the nursing approaches in the management of asthma in healthcare facilities.

Abstract

Background: Adequate antenatal care (ANC) is essential for reducing maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. Despite high initial ANC contact coverage in Indonesia, fulfillment of the six-visit standard (ANC K6) remains limited and socially patterned.Objective: This study aimed to describe sociodemographic and socioeconomic determinants associated with adequate antenatal care (ANC K6) in Indonesia using national survey data.Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive analysis was conducted using aggregated data from the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey, including 70,916 women aged 10–54 years who had given birth. The outcome variable was fulfillment of ANC K6. Independent variables included maternal age, education, marital status, parity, place of residence, and household wealth quintile. The analysis examined distributional patterns of ANC K6 across determinant categories without inferential modeling.Results: Nationally, only 17.6% of mothers fulfilled the ANC K6 standard. Among mothers who achieved ANC K6, the majority were aged 20–34 years (76.5%), had secondary or higher education (79.3%), resided in urban areas (57.6%), and belonged to higher wealth quintiles (49.7%). These findings indicate a pronounced social gradient in continuity of antenatal care utilization.Conclusion: Adequate antenatal care in Indonesia remains low and unequally distributed. Structural factors including education, residence, and household wealth - appear to shape continuity of care. Policies should prioritize reducing barriers to repeated visits among socioeconomically disadvantaged populations.
