Abstract

Background: The accuracy of tuberculosis (TB) reporting in the Tuberculosis Information System (SITB) depends on the quality of patient data management within the Hospital Management Information System (SIMRS). Purpose: To assess the association between SIMRS database accuracy and the accuracy of SITB reporting at Welas Asih Regional Hospital. Method: A descriptive quantitative study with a cross-sectional design was conducted using all 1,035 TB records from the fourth quarter of 2025. Data consistency was evaluated by matching six key patient data elements between SIMRS and SITB using a binary scoring method. Results: SIMRS recording compliance was highest for diagnosis (72.1%) and gender (72.0%), while the address variable showed the greatest discrepancy (49.1%). Accurate SITB reporting was identified in 697 records (67.3%), whereas 338 records (32.7%) were inaccurate. Chi-square analysis demonstrated a significant positive association between SIMRS database accuracy and SITB reporting accuracy (Pearson χ² = 820.522; p < 0.05). Reporting inaccuracies were primarily related to the absence of an integrated bridging system requiring manual duplicate entry, the lack of SITB-specific standard operating procedures, and inconsistent data reconciliation practices. Conclusion: Improving reporting accuracy requires accelerated implementation of a SIMRS-SITB bridging system, establishment of technical SOPs, and routine data synchronization.

Abstract

Background: Spiritual care is an integral component of holistic nursing care, helping patients maintain meaning in life, hope, and inner peace during treatment. However, its implementation in clinical settings remains challenging due to limited nursing competence, heavy workloads, and inadequate organizational support, which may prevent patients’ spiritual needs from being fully addressed. Purpose: To map the scientific evidence on the implementation of spiritual care by nurses in inpatient wards, the factors influencing its implementation, and its effects on patients, families, and nurses. Method: This study employed a scoping review approach based on the Arksey and O’Malley framework, as refined by Levac et al., and adhered to the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology and PRISMA-ScR guidelines. Literature searches were conducted across seven electronic databases for studies published between 2021 and 2025. Study selection was guided by the Population, Concept, and Context (PCC) framework, and the data were analyzed using thematic synthesis. Results: Of the 2,122 articles identified, 14 met the inclusion criteria. The included studies were conducted in various countries and employed quantitative, qualitative, and intervention designs. Thematic synthesis identified five themes: (1) therapeutic presence as the core of spiritual care; (2) spiritual communication as a key approach to its implementation; (3) barriers to implementation, including limited time, heavy workloads, inadequate training, and insufficient organizational support; (4) facilitating factors, including spiritual competence and sensitivity, clinical experience, training, and organizational support; and (5) the benefits of spiritual care for patients, families, and nurses. Conclusion: Spiritual care in inpatient settings is primarily delivered through therapeutic presence and spiritual communication. Its implementation is shaped by individual and organizational factors, with nursing competence, clinical experience, training, and organizational support serving as important facilitators. Strengthening nurses’ spiritual care competencies and improving institutional support may help optimize the delivery of spiritual care in inpatient settings.

Abstract

Background: The joint breakfast movement (Gerakan Mangande Padondo Ante Kita), known as GEMPITA, is a program of the Central Sulawesi Provincial Health Office aimed at improving the nutritional status of school-aged children in Palu City. Purpose: To examine changes in hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Hct), and random blood glucose (RBG) levels following a 4 weeks breakfast intervention at Junior High School (SMP) 22 Pantoloan, Palu City. Method: This was a pre-experimental study using a one-group pretest posttest design involving all students of SMP 22 Pantoloan. Hb, Hct, and RBG were measured using a Fora 6 Plus point of care testing (POCT) device. Of 111 enrolled students, only 35 paired blood samples met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed before and after the 4 weeks breakfast intervention. Results: Paired t-test analysis of the 35 samples showed no statistically significant change in Hb or Hct levels before and after the 4 weeks intervention, whereas RBG levels changed significantly (p<0.05). Conclusion: A significant change in RBG level was observed before and after the GEMPITA program, while no significant change was observed in Hb or Hct levels.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is still a significant public health problem in Indonesia with long-term impacts on physical growth, cognitive development, and the quality of human resources. Prevention efforts since pregnancy, especially in the early trimester, have not been optimal due to the limitations of conventional education that has not been integrated with clinical data and behavior change approaches. Purpose: To analyze the effectiveness of SIGMA Application based on clinical data and Health Belief Model in early prevention of stunting in pregnant women. Method: A quasi-experimental study with a pretest–posttest control group design was conducted on pregnant women in the first trimester for four weeks. The sample was divided into an intervention group that used the SIGMA Application and a control group that received standardized education. The variables measured included knowledge, attitudes, stunting prevention behaviors based on the Health Belief Model construct, as well as clinical indicators in the form of hemoglobin (Hb), Upper Arm Circumference (LILA), and Body Mass Index (BMI). Data analysis was carried out using paired t-test, wilcoxon test, mann whitney test and independent t-test. Results: The intervention group showed significant improvements in knowledge, attitude, and behavior scores compared to the control group (p<0.05). In addition, there was a tendency to improve clinical indicators (Hb, LILA, and BMI) in the intervention group after four weeks of application use. Conclusion: The SIGMA application is effective as a digital health intervention in improving literacy and stunting prevention behavior in pregnant women. The integration of clinical data-driven applications and the Health Belief Model approach is recommended as an innovative strategy in maternal and child health services to support the acceleration of stunting reduction.

Abstract

Background: Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders remain as a major global occupational health problem, with growing evidence indicating that controlling psychosocial factors in the workplace are important determinants alongside biomechanical exposures. Purpose: To synthesize evidence on the effectiveness of psychosocial interventions in preventing and managing Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders among worker populations. Method: A systematic search was conducted across PubMed, ProQuest, Google Scholar, and Science Direct for randomized controlled trials or intervention studies published in English within the last ten years. Six studies met the inclusion criteria. Results: The population involving nurses, healthcare workers, slaughterhouse workers, assembly-line workers, and hospital orderlies. Interventions included work-related psychosocial coaching combined with physiotherapy, workplace physical exercise incorporating group participation and motivational coaching, social cognitive theory-based ergonomic education, and multifaceted participatory ergonomics programs combining physical, psychosocial, and case-management components. Workplace exercise performed collectively with colleagues consistently improved vitality, social climate, and pain-related coping compared with individual or home-based approaches, while multicomponent programs integrating participatory ergonomics and psychosocial support reduced neck, shoulder, and upper-back pain prevalence. Standalone psychosocial coaching produced only modest long-term benefits when not paired with organizational-level change. Conclusion: Overall, this review indicates that psychosocial interventions contribute meaningfully to Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders prevention and management, particularly when embedded within multicomponent programs that combine physical, psychosocial, and organizational elements, supporting the biopsychosocial model as a framework for future workplace intervention design.
