Abstract

Background: Acute respiratory infections (ARI) remain a major health problem in children under five. One of the risk factors associated with ARI is exposure to cigarette smoke. This study aimed to examine the relationship between exposure to cigarette smoke and the incidence of ARI among children under five at Kapasa Health Center, Makassar City, in 2024. Methods: This study employed a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 44 parents or family members of children under five were recruited using a non-probability sampling technique. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square statistical test to determine the association between exposure to cigarette smoke and the incidence of ARI. Results: The Chi-Square test showed a p-value of 0.022, which was lower than the significance level of 0.05. This finding indicates a statistically significant relationship between exposure to cigarette smoke and the incidence of ARI in children under five. Conclusion: Exposure to cigarette smoke is significantly associated with the occurrence of ARI in children under five at Kapasa Health Center, Makassar City. Preventive measures to reduce children’s exposure to cigarette smoke are urgently needed to lower the risk of ARI.

Abstract

Background: The World Health Organization reports that 5–25% of preschool children experience minor brain dysfunction, including impaired fine motor development. Achieving the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) emphasizes “nurturing care” to support early childhood development, as developmental deviations remain a leading cause of morbidity. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Sisfor-Bidanku application in the early detection of child development. Method: A pretest–posttest design was conducted at Integrated Health Service Posts (Posyandu) in the Campalagian Polewali Mandar Community Health Center area during August–September 2019. Using purposive sampling, 20 midwives were recruited and trained to apply the Sisfor-Bidanku application in child development screening. Data were collected using questionnaires comparing the ease of use between the application and conventional media. Statistical analysis was performed with the Mann–Whitney test. Results: Twelve midwives (60%) reported that the Sisfor-Bidanku application was easier to use compared to only five midwives (25%) using conventional methods. However, the Mann–Whitney test showed no significant difference between the two media (p = 0.080). Conclusion: Although no statistically significant difference was found, more midwives perceived the Sisfor-Bidanku application as easier to use, suggesting its potential as a supportive tool for early detection of child development.
