Abstract

Background Junk food consumption among school-age children requires attention because excessive consumption may have adverse effects on health. Digital media-based nutrition education can be an approach to delivering health information that is appropriate for school-age children. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the effect of digital nutrition education about junk food on the knowledge and attitudes of school-age children in Ngemplik Wetan Village, Karanganyar, Demak. Methods: This quantitative study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The respondents were 34 students of SDN Ngemplik Wetan from grades II, III, IV, and V. Data were collected using knowledge and attitude questionnaires before and after the intervention. The intervention consisted of a 10-minute educational video about junk food, followed by continued viewing of the educational video at home for seven days. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Results: The mean knowledge score increased from 4.94 ± 0.74 before the intervention to 8.00 ± 0.82 after the intervention, with median scores of 5.00 [4.00–5.25] and 8.00 [7.00–9.00], respectively. The Wilcoxon test showed Z = -5.088, p < 0.001, and an effect size (r) of 0.87. The mean attitude score increased from 68.06 ± 13.56 to 77.44 ± 21.19, with median scores of 71.00 [63.25–76.25] and 82.50 [69.00–93.25], respectively. The Wilcoxon test showed Z = -5.088, p < 0.001, and an effect size (r) of 0.87. Conclusion: Digital nutrition education about junk food demonstrated a significant improvement in the knowledge and attitudes of school-age children, with a very large effect size. Video-based digital education may be considered as an alternative nutrition education medium in schools and can be integrated into routine health education activities involving school health personnel, healthcare providers, and parents to reinforce information about healthier food choices.

Abstract

  Patient complaint management is an important effort to improve healthcare service quality. At Tenayan Raya Public Health Center, complaint management is still conducted manually, causing difficulties in recording, monitoring, and following up patient complaints in an integrated manner. This study aimed to develop a web-based patient complaint management system to support effective complaint submission, management, and resolution processes. The study used a Research and Development (R&D) approach with the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) Waterfall model, consisting of requirements analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and maintenance stages. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. System evaluation was conducted through functional testing and feasibility testing involving 30 respondents. The results indicated that the developed system successfully provided essential features, including user registration and login, online complaint submission, satisfaction assessment, complaint history and status tracking, and an administrator dashboard for complaint management and follow-up monitoring. Functional testing showed that all features operated according to user requirements, while feasibility testing achieved a 100% score, indicating that the system was highly feasible. The developed system supports a more effective, structured, and well-documented complaint management process to improve healthcare service quality.

Abstract

Social-emotional competence in children aged 4-6 years underlies their ability to cooperate, adapt, and regulate emotion, and parenting style is widely regarded as one of its strongest determinants. This study aimed to examine the relationship between parenting style and social-emotional development among children aged 4-6 years at RA/TK Melati Humairah Simalingkar, Medan City, following a preliminary survey that identified several children with underdeveloped social-emotional behavior. A quantitative correlational-analytic design with a cross-sectional approach was applied to all 60 parents of registered children (total sampling) at RA/TK Melati Humairah Simalingkar during May-June 2026. Data were collected using the Parenting Style Questionnaire (PSQ) and a validated child social-emotional development questionnaire, then analyzed through univariate description and bivariate Chi-Square testing. The results showed that most parents (70.0%) applied a democratic parenting style, and more than half of the children (53.3%) demonstrated good social-emotional development. The Chi-Square test yielded χ² = 13.916 with p = 0.001 (p < 0.05), confirming a significant relationship between parenting style and children's social-emotional development, with democratic parenting associated with markedly better outcomes than authoritarian or permissive styles. These findings reinforce the importance of promoting balanced, warm, and communicative parenting practices to optimize early childhood social-emotional growth, while acknowledging the cross-sectional design as a limitation for establishing causality.

Abstract

Background: Refillable drinking water has become a widely used alternative among the public because it is considered more efficient and affordable. However, if the management process does not comply with hygiene and sanitation standards, refillable drinking water is at risk of being contaminated with Escherichia coli bacteria, which can cause diarrhea. Objective: To analyze the management of refillable drinking water in relation to its bacteriological quality (Escherichia coli) in the Kacang Pedang Community Health Center (UPTD Puskesmas) area. Methods: This study employed a qualitative descriptive design. The study subjects were all 6 drinking water depots, with a total of 12 drinking water samples collected. Data were collected through laboratory testing for Escherichia coli content using the Most Probable Number (MPN) method and in-depth interviews. Findings: Laboratory test results showed that none of the 12 refilled drinking water samples contained Escherichia coli (0/100 ml). The facility inspection revealed that the depots were clean, and no vectors or pests were found. Regarding equipment, the storage of raw water, filtration, disinfection using ultraviolet (UV) light, rinsing, filling, and sealing of the water jugs were all carried out in accordance with hygiene and sanitation procedures. Implications: The management of refillable drinking water in the area served by the Kacang Pedang Community Health Center (UPTD Puskesmas), as assessed in terms of Escherichia coli levels, facilities, and equipment, has met the bacteriological quality requirements for drinking water as stipulated in Indonesian Ministry of Health Regulation No. 2 of 2023; therefore, the drinking water produced is safe for consumption.

Abstract

Body Mass Index (BMI) is an indicator of nutritional status associated with the risk of impaired glucose metabolism. An increased BMI may lead to insulin resistance, which contributes to elevated blood glucose levels. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI) categories and random blood glucose levels among adults in Citamiang Village. This research employed a quantitative analytical method with a cross-sectional design. A total of 25 respondents were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through measurements of body weight, height, and random blood glucose using the Point of Care Testing (POCT) method. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis and the Spearman Rank correlation test with a significance level of p < 0.05. The results showed that most respondents were classified as overweight (40%), while 60% had normal random blood glucose levels. The Spearman Rank test yielded a correlation coefficient of r = 0.496 with a significance value of p = 0.012. These findings indicate a statistically significant positive relationship with moderate correlation strength between BMI categories and random blood glucose levels. Higher BMI categories tended to be associated with higher random blood glucose levels. In conclusion, Body Mass Index is significantly associated with random blood glucose levels among adults in Citamiang Village and may serve as a simple screening indicator for the early detection of metabolic disorders.

Abstract

The implementation of electronic medical records improves healthcare service efficiency but also presents challenges related to patient data security and confidentiality. This study aimed to analyze the risks of patient data breaches and preventive measure for electronic medical records at Hospital X. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document reviews. The findings showed that no official reports of patient data breaches had been identified however, several risks remained, including audit trail monitoring that was not conducted regularly, access rights not fully aligned with user’s roles, the absence of two-factor authentication, inactive automatic logout, cloud storage still under consideration, and human error. The study concludes that EMR security still needs to be strengthened. EMR security is recommended to receive continuous strengthening through improvements in technology, policies, monitoring, and user awareness. Strengthening policies, incident response procedures, and user training, as well as fostering a security-conscious culture, are also essential to safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of patient data. These measures are expected to prevent security incidents while enhancing patient trust in the hospital's healthcare services.

Abstract

Anemia is one of the global health problems that is still a serious concern, especially in developing countries. In Indonesia, the prevalence of anemia according to SKI (2023) is that 16.3% of the Indonesian population aged 5-14 years suffer from anemia, and 15.5% of the population aged 15-24 years suffer from anemia. The incidence of anemia varied by sex, with females having higher rates (18.0%) than males (14.4%). This study aims to analyze the effect of blood (Fe) supplement tablet consumption on increasing hemoglobin levels in anemia patients examined using the cyanmethemoglobin method. This study used a pre-experimental approach with a post-test pre-test design, namely a group of anemia patients who received blood supplementation (Fe) with a dose of 60 mg per day for 14 days. With 20 samples taken from outpatients at Yasfina Clinic who met the inclusion criteria: age over 18 years, diagnosis of anemia based on Hb levels of less than 12 g/dL, and willingness to participate in a full and tracked intervention program during the study period. The sampling technique uses a purposive sampling approach, based on the research that has been conducted, the results of increasing hemoglobin levels after the consumption of Blood Supplement Tablets (Fe) were obtained. Based on the paired test of the t test, a value of Sig. (2-tailed) 0.000 < 0.05 was obtained which showed that there was a significant influence on the Hb level of anemia patients after being given blood supplemental tablets.

Abstract

Postoperative pain is one of the most common complaints among patients undergoing orthopedic surgery and may interfere with comfort, mobilization, and recovery. Music therapy is a non-pharmacological intervention that can provide relaxation and distraction effects to reduce pain perception. This study aimed to analyze the effect of music therapy on postoperative pain among orthopedic surgery patients at dr. R. Goeteng Taroenadibrata Regional General Hospital, Purbalingga. This study used a quantitative quasi-experimental design with a two-group pretest-posttest approach. A total of 36 respondents were recruited using purposive sampling and divided equally into intervention and control groups. Pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and Mann-Whitney Test. The mean age of respondents was 39.75±9.28 years, with a predominance of female respondents. There was a significant reduction in pain intensity in the intervention group after music therapy (p<0.001). The control group also showed a significant reduction in pain intensity after receiving standard care (p<0.001). However, the decrease in pain intensity differed significantly between groups, indicating that music therapy provided an additional benefit in postoperative pain management. Music therapy can be considered a complementary non-pharmacological intervention for postoperative orthopedic patients.
