Abstract

The results of a preliminary study conducted on nurses at Pandan Arang Hospital, Boyolali Regency, showed that 80% of nurses who handled COVID-19 patients had been confirmed positive for COVID-19. 75% of them experience work stress, preliminary survey results show that concerns about being infected with COVID 19 and increasing workloads are the main factors for work stress among nurses. This study aims to analyze what factors are related to work stress in nurses who provide services to COVID-19 patients at Pandan Arang Boyolali Regional Hospital. The study utilized a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 76 nurses in the COVID-19 care unit determined through total sampling. Data collection was conducted using questionnaires, and data analysis was performed using bivariate analysis. The results of the multivariate analysis showed that job conflict (B = 1.636, p < 0.001) and family conflict (B = 0.634, p < 0.001) had a significant effect on work stress, while age, gender, and education level did not show a significant relationship with work stress (p > 0.05). The practical implication of this study is the importance of managing job conflict to reduce work stress.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever is an infectious disease caused by acute viral infection, namely the dengue virus. Symptoms include fever for 2-7 days, accompanied by signs of bleeding, a decrease in the number of platelets (thrombocytopenia), and plasma leakage characterized by hemoconcentration. The aim of this study is to analyze the factors that most influence the incidence of dengue fever in the city of Semarang. This research uses a case control research design. The case population is all dengue sufferers, while the control population is people who are declared negative for dengue fever through microscopic examination of blood smears. The sample consisted of 2 groups, namely 45 respondents in the case group and 45 respondents in the control group, accompanied by the use of purposive random sampling techniques. The instrument uses a questionnaire sheet. Data analysis used the Chi Square test and Logistic Regression test. The results of the research show that there is a correlation between water storage, level of knowledge, efforts to eradicate mosquito nesting areas, use of anti-mosquito medication and behavior of hanging clothes with dengue cases (p-value < 0.05). Factors that influence the incidence of dengue fever are water storage, level of knowledge, and efforts to eradicate mosquito nests. It is necessary to carry out preventive efforts independently for each family member.

Abstract

Exclusive breastfeeding is an important policy to ensure the health of infants and mothers. Semarang, as one of Indonesia's metropolitan cities, faces challenges in implementing this policy. Evaluation of the exclusive breastfeeding program is necessary to understand its implementation success and influencing factors. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the exclusive breastfeeding policy in Semarang. The method used is qualitative research with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with health officials, lactating mothers, and relevant stakeholders in Semarang's exclusive breastfeeding policy implementation. The research findings indicate several challenges in the implementation, such as low public awareness of the importance of exclusive breastfeeding and inadequate government supervision. Based on the research results, evaluation of input from various research informants indicates that the planned breastfeeding program has been well communicated despite some obstacles. Program evaluation is conducted monthly by health centers through recording and reporting. Evaluation of the implementation of the exclusive breastfeeding policy in Semarang is carried out using an output evaluation model, assessing the coverage rate of exclusive breastfeeding in Semarang, which shows an increase in the coverage rate of exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract

Anemia is a severe public health problem with the incidence of anemia among pregnant women in Indonesia at 46.2% based on data from the Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS) 5. This study aimed to determine the factors associated with the incidence of anemia among pregnant women in Indonesia. The cross-sectional design of the study was using secondary data from IFLS 5 which was conducted from September 2014 to March 2015 on 292 pregnant women out of 53,160 respondents based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Chi-square analysis showed that maternal age, maternal occupation, smoking habit, food frequency, green vegetable consumption, vitamin C consumption, socioeconomic status and health service distance were not associated with the incidence of anemia among pregnant women in Indonesia. Whereas maternal education (p=0.006), nutritional status (p=0.003), gestational age (p=0.001), iron consumption (p=0.001), ANC examination (p=0.006) and protein consumption (p=0.012) were associated with the incidence of anemia among pregnant women in Indonesia. Multivariate analysis with multiple logistic regression showed maternal education (p=0.014), nutritional status (p=<0.001), gestational age (p=0.002), iron consumption (p=0.008) and protein consumption (p=0.038) were associated with the incidence of anemia among pregnant women in Indonesia. Gestational age was the most dominant variable associated with the incidence of anemia among pregnant women after controlling for maternal education, nutritional status, iron consumption and protein consumption (OR=3.029; 95% CI=1.520-6.038).

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the serious public health problems facing the world. The prevalence of hypertension in Semarang City increased in 2013 by 27.1% to 37.02% in 2018. This prevalence rate has not reached the target of the Semarang City SDG's related to the hypertension prevalence rate, which is 25%. Hypertension becomes very dangerous when it is not controlled, because if it occurs for a long time, it can cause complications of the disease. One of the most common comorbidities of primary headache disorders is hypertension. The purpose of this study is to analyze the epidemiological pattern of hypertension and headache syndromes, as well as the association of headache syndromes with hypertension incidence by gender and age group. This study is a quantitative research with a nested case control study research design, using data from SIMPUS Semarang City from 2010-2015. The variables in this study were hypertension and headache syndromes. The analysis used was univariate (frequency distribution) and bivariate analysis (chi square test). The results of the study show that hypertension is more experienced in women than men. The most cases of hypertension occur in the age group of 50-59 years (men and women). There was a significant relationship between headache syndromes and the incidence of hypertension in the Puskesmas area throughout Semarang City.

Abstract

In this era, science and technology are advancing significantly. The development of information and communication technology, along with the emergence of mobile devices, can benefit the fields of education and healthcare through applications designed as educational media. Work fatigue among nurses is a condition that must be promptly addressed and cannot be ignored, as it can affect their job performance and has many negative consequences. The purpose of this research is to develop an educational media application related to work fatigue in nurses. This study is a Research and Development of an Android-based educational media application. Product testing was conducted by evaluating the validity of the educational media with content experts, media experts, and users (nurses). The results of the product testing showed that the content experts gave an average validity score of 92.86%, categorized as very valid, while the media experts rated it at 94%, also categorized as very valid. In a small-scale trial with 5 nurses, the application received a score of 93.7%, categorized as very good, though there were revisions needed regarding the ease of login. After revisions, a limited-scale trial with 10 nurses resulted in a score of 98.7%, categorized as very good.
