Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by elevated blood sugar levels due to insulin resistance or inadequate insulin production. This condition affects the body's ability to use sugar (glucose) as an energy source. Prolanis exercises are one way to lower blood sugar levels. This study aimed to determine the effect of Prolanis exercises on blood sugar levels in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus at the Cita Mulia Mojokerto outpatient clinic. This study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design. A sample of 30 people was selected using accidental sampling. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis and bivariate analysis using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The results showed that almost half of the respondents adhered to Prolanis exercise with random blood sugar levels in the good category (43.3%). In addition, almost half of the respondents had random blood sugar levels in the range of 110–159 mg/dL (46.7%). The results of statistical tests showed an effect of Prolanis exercise on random blood sugar levels in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (p=0.000). Physical activity through exercise has been shown to increase insulin sensitivity, thereby reducing blood glucose levels. Physical activity increases insulin levels, thereby reducing blood sugar levels. Health services need to provide motivational support to the community to participate in preventive activities such as exercise to further raise public awareness of the importance of consistently participating in Diabetes Mellitus control activities.

Abstract

The introduction of complementary feeding (MP-ASI) before the recommended age may increase the risk of health complications in infants, including gastrointestinal infections such as gastroenteritis, which can potentially be fatal. This study aimed to examine the association between complementary feeding practices and the nutritional status of children aged 7–24 months in Mojodadi Village, Kemlagi District, Mojokerto Regency, in 2024. An analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted. The sample consisted of 34 infants aged 7–24 months. Data were obtained from secondary sources, specifically the 2024 child nutrition report, which included information on the appropriateness of complementary feeding practices and nutritional status based on the weight-for-age (W/A) indicator. The relationship between variables was analyzed using Fisher’s Exact Test.The results showed that the majority of children received complementary feeding at the appropriate age (after 6 months), totaling 27 respondents (79.4%). Similarly, most children had normal nutritional status, also 27 respondents (79.4%). Fisher’s test yielded a p-value of 0.020, indicating a statistically significant association between complementary feeding practices and the nutritional status of infants aged 7–24 months in the study area.Appropriate implementation of complementary feeding—both in terms of timing and feeding practices—has the potential to improve nutritional adequacy and support children’s physical and cognitive development. Health workers and community health volunteers (posyandu cadres) are encouraged to strengthen parental education through demonstrations of age-appropriate complementary feeding practices and to promote regular growth monitoring for early detection of nutritional problems.

Abstract

Abortion was one of the leading causes of maternal mortality. In early pregnancy, bleeding could occur as a result of abortion. This study aimed to identify the factors associated with the incidence of abortion at Sakinah Islamic Hospital, Mojokerto, in 2023. A case-control design was employed in this study. The sample consisted of 158 cases selected through total sampling and 158 controls selected through simple random sampling. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test. The results showed that age and history of abortion were significantly associated with the incidence of abortion, as indicated by a p-value of less than 0.05. In contrast, parity was not significantly associated with the incidence of abortion. These findings indicated that maternal age and previous abortion history were important factors related to abortion incidence, whereas parity did not show a significant relationship. Based on these findings, preventive efforts could have included routine antenatal counseling and family planning counseling for couples of reproductive age. These measures were expected to support well-planned pregnancies and reduce the risk of abortion

Abstract

Cesarean section was a surgical procedure that was commonly associated with postoperative pain, which could limit physical movement and delay functional recovery in mothers. Pain experienced after surgery often led to fear of mobilization, resulting in prolonged bed rest and delayed return to daily activities. One non-pharmacological intervention that could be applied to manage postoperative pain and enhance recovery was early mobilization. Early mobilization was believed to reduce pain intensity and accelerate functional recovery by improving blood circulation, reducing inflammation, and stimulating physical activity. This study aimed to analyze the effect of early mobilization on pain intensity and functional recovery time in post-cesarean section patients. A quasi-experimental design with a time-series approach was used. The sample consisted of 34 respondents selected using simple random sampling, divided into an intervention group (n=17) and a control group (n=17). Data were collected using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) to assess pain intensity and an observation sheet to measure functional recovery time. Data were analyzed using the Friedman test and Mann-Whitney test. The results showed that before the intervention, all respondents in both groups experienced severe pain. After early mobilization, all respondents in the intervention group reported mild pain, while most respondents in the control group (82.4%) still experienced moderate pain. In terms of functional recovery, all respondents in the intervention group recovered within 24 hours, whereas the majority of the control group (52.9%) required 48 hours. Statistical analysis showed significant results (p=0.000 for pain intensity and p=0.001 for functional recovery time). In conclusion, early mobilization had a significant effect on reducing pain intensity and accelerating functional recovery in post-cesarean section patients.

Abstract

Sectio caesarea was a surgical procedure that often caused psychological responses, particularly preoperative anxiety. This anxiety was an anticipatory response to perceived threats and could be influenced by coping strategies and family support. This study aimed to determine the relationship between coping strategies and family support with anxiety levels in preoperative sectio caesarea patients. This study employed a cross-sectional design conducted at Arafah Anwar Medika Hospital, Sidoarjo. A total of 35 respondents were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using the Brief COPE questionnaire, family support questionnaire, and the Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS). Data analysis was performed using the Spearman rho test. The results showed that most respondents had adaptive coping strategies (57.1%), while nearly half had moderate family support (42.9%) and moderate anxiety levels (37.1%). Statistical analysis indicated a significant relationship between coping strategies and anxiety levels (p < 0.05; r = -0.718), as well as between family support and anxiety levels (p < 0.05; r = -0.825). Adaptive coping strategies and higher family support were associated with lower anxiety levels in preoperative sectio caesarea patients. Strengthening psychological support and involving family members were essential to reduce patient anxiety before surgery.

Abstract

Hypertension was a health problem that not only affected adults but was also increasingly found among adolescents. The low level of knowledge and preventive attitudes toward hypertension among students became an important issue that needed to be addressed through innovative educational methods. This study aimed to determine the effect of using an educational game-based medium, Uno Stacko, on students’ knowledge and attitudes regarding hypertension at MAN 2 Mojokerto Regency. This study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The sample consisted of students selected using total sampling technique. The instruments used were questionnaires measuring knowledge and attitudes. Data were analyzed using statistical tests to determine differences before and after the intervention. The results showed that students’ knowledge increased after the intervention, with the mean score rising from 63.1 to 82.5, and most respondents (66%) having good knowledge. Students’ attitudes also improved, with the mean score increasing from 26.98 to 47.01, and the majority of respondents (90%) demonstrating positive attitudes. The statistical test results showed a p-value of 0.000 (p<0.05), indicating a significant effect of the Uno Stacko educational media on students’ knowledge and attitudes. It was concluded that the Uno Stacko game-based educational media was effective in improving students’ knowledge and attitudes regarding hypertension. It was recommended that this interactive learning method be implemented continuously in school-based health education

Abstract

Nutritional problems among school-age children remained an important public health issue, characterized by the presence of both undernutrition and overnutrition, which could affect children’s health and development. Low knowledge of balanced nutrition was one of the factors influencing students’ eating behavior. Therefore, nutrition education using educational game-based media was needed to effectively improve students’ understanding. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group approach. The study population consisted of 93 students in grades IV, V, and VI at SDN Pulorejo 2, with a sample of 48 students selected using stratified proportionate random sampling. The sample was divided into two groups: the smart dice media group and the true-false card media group. Data were collected using a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability, and were analyzed using the Paired Sample T-Test and Independent Sample T-Test. The results showed that there was a significant increase in balanced nutrition knowledge in both groups (p < 0.05). The mean knowledge score in the smart dice group increased from 74.79 to 86.63, while in the true-false card group it increased from 70.21 to 80.54. Comparative analysis showed a significant difference in post-test results (p = 0.032), where the smart dice group demonstrated a higher improvement. Nutrition education based on educational games was proven to be effective in improving students’ knowledge. The smart dice media was more effective due to its higher level of interactivity, which enhanced student engagement and understanding.
