Abstract

Background : Perinatal Mental Health (PMH) is a mental health issue that occurs in pregnant women and postpartum. The care of mental health is greatly influenced by the knowledge, attitudes, and skills of midwives in conducting mental health screenings Objective : Therefore, this study aims to analyze the knowledge, attitudes, and skills of midwives in implementing mental health screenings for postpartum mothers. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This research utilized a cross-sectional design that surveyed 102 (one hundred and two) midwives working in postpartum care rooms at healthcare centers in Indonesia. The sampling was conducted using Consecutive Sampling in December 2023, with the criteria of midwives who are actively working and willing to be respondents. Research data were collected electronically using a questionnaire through Google Forms, distributed via WhatsApp using Snowball sampling technique to evaluate the demographic characteristics, knowledge, attitudes, and skills of midwives in conducting postpartum maternal health screenings. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 27 and tested using the Chi-square test with significant at p < 0.05. Results : Among midwives, 51.9% are knowledgeable about PMH screening. Of the 53 midwives surveyed, 80% demonstrated a high level of knowledge, while 98.1% have a positive attitude toward PMH screening. However, only 47.1% presented proficient skills in this area. Statistical analysis reveals a significant correlation between midwives’ knowledge and attitudes regarding PMH screening, with a p-value of 0.001, which is below the threshold of 0.05. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : It is essential to provide training for midwives in the implementation of PMH screening for postpartum mothers to ensure optimal care outcomes.

Abstract

Background : The Government of Indonesia has recently initiated a national effort to reduce incidence of child stunting. One of the important effort to reduce stunting is breastfeeding practice. Objective : To evaluate the correlation between the level of education and duration of breast feeding on women fertile in Banggai Regency. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : A sample of 454 women in children bearing from twenty villages contained with Banggai Regency were selected to participate in this study. Variables included duration of breastfeeding, mothers education level, mothers ages. Data was analysed using binary logistic regression.

Abstract

Background : Health cadres are the spearhead in implementing health programs at the village level. In the context of toddler growth, cadre duties include monitoring child growth and development and early detection of toddler health problems. Cadre motivation is seen as a factor that influences how much involvement and dedication cadres have in carrying out their duties well. Objective : This article aims to analyze the influence of health cadre motivation on performance in efforts to improve toddler growth. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This study is a meta-analysis using the PRISMA flowchart and PICO model. Population: toddler health cadres. Intervention: have good motivation. Comparison: poor motivation, Outcome: Cadre performance. The process of searching for articles by searching through databases in Google scholar, Scopus, ProQuest, PubMed, Elsevier, and Science direct. The keywords used are "health cadre motivation" OR "health cadre performance" OR "toddler growth" OR "toddler growth efforts" AND "health cadre efforts" AND "Cross sectional" AND "aOR". Articles were selected based on inclusion criteria, namely articles with a cross-sectional design published in 2015-2024 analyzed using logistic regression. Data were analyzed using Review Manager 5.3. Results : Meta-analysis was conducted on 7 primary studies from countries Ethiopia, Nigeria, and Indonesia. The results showed that health cadre motivation improved cadre performance in toddler growth (aOR= 1.84; 95% CI= 1.45 to 2.33; p=0.02).

Abstract

Background: On September 10, 2024, seven primary school students with neck swelling were reported to the Sleman District Health Office (DHO) by Depok II Primary Health Care (PHC). Purpose: This study aimed to confirm and characterize the outbreak and recommend control measures. Methods: A descriptive study was conducted based on person, place, and time. A case was defined as someone who experienced swelling in the cheek or neck area with or without symptoms of fever, sore throat, headache, and no appetite at SDN X from August to September 2024. The population-at- risk (PAR) was defined as people at SDN X in August to September 2024. Data was collected via Google Form and analyzed with graphs and tables. Results: Among 244 PAR, 17 cases were identified (attack rate = 6.96%). The highest attack rate was in class 1A (38.5%, 10/26). Predominant symptoms included swollen cheeks or neck (100%) and fever (88%). The index case was a 7-year-old girl in class 1A, symptomatic from August 28. Cases peaked from September 8-14 (n=7). Case management was carried out by having symptomatic students rest at home until recovery to prevent further transmission. Awareness education on mumps, handwashing, mask use, distancing, and dissemination of guidelines on mumps vigilance were implemented following outbreak confirmation. Conclusions: A mumps outbreak was confirmed at a primary school in Condongcatur, Sleman.

Abstract

Background : Stunting is the impaired growth and development that children experinece from poor nutrition, repeated infection and in adequate phsycososial stimulation. Based on Riskesdas 2018, the pervalence rate of stunting in Indonesia was recorded at 30,8 % baby in under five years old experiencing stunting. The pervalence in east Kalimanatan in 2022 is 22,39 %. Objective : This is a cross sectional study to find corelation between complementary feeding and stunting. : This study used a cross-sectional design to investigate the association between complementary feeding, smoke exposure, and immunization with stunting among children at Baru Tengah Primary Health Care, Balikpapan. Data were collected through questionnaires completed by parents, covering feeding practices, exposure to cigarette smoke, and immunization history. Stunting was assessed by measuring children’s height and comparing it to the WHO Child Growth Standards. The Chi-Square test was applied to analyze correlations between stunting and each variable Results : Using Chi-Square analysis, a significant relationship was found between stunting and complementary feeding practices (p-value= 0,001), but no correlation was observed with smoke exposure or immunization status (p-value > 0,05) Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Complementary feeding practices are associated with stunting. Regular counseling on appropriate complementary feeding should be prioritized for parents, especially when children reach six months of age, to reduce stunting risk.

Abstract

Background : Pesticide exposure has harmful effects on farmers, especially spraying farmers. All of pesticide classes such as organophosphates, carbamates, pyrethroids and organochlorines can have a disruptive effect on metabolism and energy storage. One of the bioindicators that can be used to identify farmers exposed to pesticides is AChE. Abnormal AChE levels stimulate nicotinic and muscarinic receptors in various organs, causing a wide range of metabolic disorders including adipose tissue dysfunction, inflammation and changes in body composition. Objective : The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between long-term pesticide exposure and potential body composition alteration in vegetable farmers. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This was a cross-sectional study with 46 farmers who spraying pesticide in vegetables area. Subjects were determined by purposive sampling and must fulfil the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Indicator of pesticide exposure measured by cholinesterase serum and history of exposure, while parameters of body composition by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) using body fat monitor. There were body weight, body mass index, resting metabolism rate, total, visceral and subcutaneous fat, skeletal muscle also body age. Results : Subjects with abnormal AChE were only 8.9%. AChE level had no correlation with all components of the exposure history, but had a significant correlation with body composition parameters (p<0.05), that was body weight, BMI, percent fat, percent visceral fat, RMR with strength of correlation is weak (R 0.31-0.34). Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Based on this study AChE may represent a good indicator of metabolic alterations in body composition and may occur due to lipid metabolism disruption.
