Abstract

Background: Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a major obstacle to tuberculosis eradication worldwide. MDR-TB cases are a form of tuberculosis resistant to two main drugs, isoniazid and rifampin. Purpose: To (1) determine trends in the pattern of changes in the number of MDR-TB cases, (2) identify the distribution of MDR-TB cases in Indonesia by time and region (province), and (3) identify clusters based on incidence rates and population density. Method: An observational ecological study using aggregate provincial-level data. MDR-TB case data was obtained from the Indonesian Ministry of Health for 2021–2023. The analysis was conducted descriptively, spatially, and cluster-wise. The spatial epidemiology approach included the creation of thematic maps (choropleth maps), temporal trend analysis, Standardized Incidence Ratio (SIR), and hierarchical cluster analysis using the Ward method. Results: There was an increase in MDR-TB cases in almost all provinces during 2021–2023. After adjusting for population (rate), the provinces with the highest risk were DKI Jakarta, North Maluku, Gorontalo, and North Sulawesi. Spatial analysis showed significant hotspots in West Java and Banten, while other provinces were classified as low risk. Based on clusters, DKI Jakarta formed a separate cluster with the highest rate and density. The distribution of MDR-TB in Indonesia is uneven, with an increase in national cases and concentration of risk in several regions. Conclusion: A spatial-based approach is essential for planning more targeted interventions. These findings indicate that the distribution of MDR-TB in Indonesia is uneven, with an increase in national cases and concentration of risk in certain provinces, so these areas need to be prioritized in MDR-TB control.

Abstract

Background: Child undernutrition remains a significant concern in Indonesia, particularly during the complementary feeding period when inadequate dietary quality may impair optimal growth. Purpose: To evaluate the short-term effectiveness of a complementary feeding formulation composed of soybean seed coat flour and milkfish flour in supporting weight gain among children aged 9–12 months. Method: A quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was conducted among 20 children, with 16 included in the final analysis after excluding dropouts and outliers. Participants received 125 ml of the formulated complementary food daily for nine consecutive days. Body weight was assessed before and after the intervention. Results: Due to non-normal data distribution (Shapiro–Wilk p < 0.05), the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test was applied. Seven children demonstrated weight gain, seven showed no change, and two experienced slight weight loss. Despite positive tendencies, the overall change was not statistically significant (Z = −1.727; p = 0.08). Factors such as short intervention duration, inconsistent caregiver adherence, concurrent intake of ultra-processed foods, and minor illnesses likely contributed to limited measurable changes. Conclusion: Although not statistically significant, the nutrient-rich formulation shows potential for longer-term application, especially in low-resource settings. Extended duration studies with larger sample sizes are recommended.

Abstract

Background: Indonesia’s National Health Insurance system has introduced the Standardized Inpatient Class policy to reduce service disparities and improve equity and quality of inpatient care. However, compliance with standardized inpatient requirements entails substantial infrastructure and operational costs that may affect hospital financial performance. Purpose: To systematically examine how the implementation of the Standardized Inpatient Class policy influences hospital financial performance in Indonesia. Method: A systematic literature review was conducted following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Articles published between 2014 and 2025 were identified from Scopus, PubMed, and Google Scholar using predefined keywords related to standardized inpatient care, health financing, and hospital performance. Quality appraisal was conducted using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Tools. Eligible studies were screened using inclusion and exclusion criteria and synthesized using narrative thematic analysis. Results: Twelve studies met the inclusion criteria. The findings indicate that Standardized Inpatient Class implementation increases capital investment and operational costs, reduces bed capacity in some hospitals, and creates mismatches between reimbursement rates and actual service costs. Financial impacts vary by hospital ownership and location, with public and rural hospitals experiencing greater financial strain. Conclusion: While the Standardized Inpatient Class policy promotes equity and service quality, its implementation poses significant financial challenges for hospitals. Policy refinement, reimbursement adjustment, and targeted financial support are essential to ensure hospital financial sustainability.

Abstract

Background: A significant global shortage of mental health nurses exists. Additionally, compared to other nursing specialities, mental health nursing has been determined to be less popular at University Medical Center Utrecht of Applied Sciences. Purpose: a better understanding of what influences second-year nursing students' choice to minor in mental health. Method: Survey-based quantitative methodology was used. The sample consisted of 177 second-year nursing students pursuing bachelor's degrees. Results: Multiple linear regression revealed that four factors—students' interest in mental health care, teachers' knowledge of the topic, previous internships in mental health care, and the experience of a close relative with mental health concerns—were significantly connected with the decision to minor in mental health. Conclusion: The findings indicate that choosing a child or adolescent with mental health issues as a focus of care is relatively uncommon. Moreover, the decision to work with this population was not associated with all themes identified in previous qualitative studies. Several variables were excluded from the analysis due to limited conceptual clarity or insufficient understanding. Overall, the observed effect sizes were modest.

Abstract

Background: In order to handle their academic obligations and reduce stress, students needed to have effective coping techniques. In order to plan interventions, nurse educators are suggested to assess the stress level of the nursing program because various nursing students have varying amounts of stress and coping mechanisms. Purpose: To investigate the variations in nursing undergraduates' academic stress and coping mechanisms. Method: Undergraduate nursing students made up the population of the descriptive study, which employed a cross-sectional approach. Census sampling was used, and the stress coping style survey and the stress related to school questionnaire were the instruments used to gather data. For inferential analysis, ANOVA was used, and the results were presented as means and standard deviations. Results: Age group differences in peer stress were significant (p = 0.004). Male respondents have lower mean academic stress than female respondents, with the exception of peer stress. There was a significant gender difference in the mean academic stress for peers and teachers (p = 0.04 and 0.02, respectively). Academic stress ranges from 300 to 400 on average, with the exception of group study. Active problem dealing had the highest mean score across all age groups. There is no appreciable difference in stress coping mechanisms among all the variables. Male respondents have a greater mean stress coping style than female respondents when it comes to active emotional coping and active issue coping, with significant differences of p = 0.011 and 0.045, respectively. The 500-level respondents have the highest mean stress coping style across all metrics when compared to respondents from other levels. Conclusion: When creating therapies to lessen academic stress among undergraduate nursing students, lower age groups should be taken into consideration. Female students require more attention than male students. Students at the 300 and 400 levels should be given more attention than those at lower levels. Additionally, students should be taught a variety of coping strategies, where to apply them, and the consequences of each, regardless of their age, gender, or academic standing.

Abstract

Background: Hand hygiene is the most effective way to prevent hospital-acquired infections (HAI). Although the percentage of the HAI performance indicator target was still less than 5%, this study was carried out to reinforce hand hygiene compliance among registered nurses to increase the quality of nursing services. Purpose: To determine the effect of a training program on hand hygiene compliance among registered nurses in a private hospital. Method: This study used a quantitative quasi-experimental design based on an experimental group (single group) among 48 registered nurses from A&E, ICU, OT, PAED, LR, O&G, hemodialysis, and medical-surgical services working in KPJ Sentosa Hospital. The researcher used an audit monitoring pre and post-training to observe an opportunity to perform their hand hygiene practice, adapted from WHO as validated tools in this study. The 5-moment of hand hygiene before touching a patient, before clean/aseptic procedures, after body fluid exposure or risk, after touching a patient, and after touching the patient's surroundings, besides seven steps of hand hygiene compliance were included in this study determine the effect of training program's on hand hygiene compliance among registered nurses. Results: The mean percentage of hand hygiene compliance in the post-test (M = 6.85) after the intervention was significantly higher than before the intervention (M = 6.63). Additionally, the significant (2-tailed) value is 0.020. A p-value <.0.020 was considered statistically significant. Conclusion: Therefore, continuous training programs should continue to enhance the hand hygiene compliance rate among healthcare workers, and the impact will reduce hospital-acquired infections and establish the hospital’s image well in the community.

Abstract

Background: Self-management behavior plays an important role in controlling hypertension and preventing complications. Evidence in the adult population still needs to be strengthened regarding sociodemographic factors such as gender and the duration of having hypertension in influencing variations in self-management behavior. Purpose: To analyze the correlation between gender and duration of hypertension with self-management behavior in adult patients with hypertension. Method: This quantitative study uses a cross-sectional analytical approach, involving 287 adult patients with hypertension registered at six primary healthcare facilities on Tarakan Island, using quota sampling techniques. Data on respondent characteristics, including age, gender, and duration of hypertension, were collected using a general demographic characteristics questionnaire, while self-management behavior was measured using the Hypertension Self-Management Behaviors Questionnaire. Data analysis to determine correlation using the chi-square statistical test, with a significance level of p<0.05. Results: The majority of respondents are female, and more than half have had hypertension £ 3 years. There is a significant correlation between gender and self-management behavior (p=<0.001), with the majority of women exhibiting moderate self-management behavior. Conversely, no significant relationship was identified between the duration of hypertension and self-management behavior (p=0.150). Conclusions: There is a significant relationship between gender and self-management behavior, indicating that gender differences contribute to chronic disease management behavior, particularly in hypertension. Furthermore, the non-significance of the duration of hypertension indicates that the length of illness is not always accompanied by improved self-management behaviors. Nurses and other health professionals need to consider gender differences when designing education and support programs to optimize self-management behaviors in adult patients with hypertension.
