Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic is a global concern. In this case, Health Care Workers (HCW) are at the front lines in dealing with the pandemic as they provide diagnosis, care, and treatment. However, their duties have directly placed them at the most at risk of infection. Mitigation and risk reduction are crucial for safeguarding HCWs' health as it prevents the spread of COVID-19. This research aimed to find out the practice of COVID-19 prevention and the correlation among practice and knowledge, attitudes, and personality traits of HCW in Palembang. A cross-sectional study was conducted between May and July 2021 on 255 HCW who have direct contact with patients. The number of respondents per hospital is taken proportionally according to the portion of HCW in each selected hospital. The instrument consisted of demographic variables, knowledge, attitudes, and practices. It proves that it is reliable with Cronbach's alpha value of 0.7. The researchers used descriptive statistics, chi-square, and logistic regression. Overall, 65.2% of participants had good knowledge, 60% had a positive attitude, and 53.3% had good practice. Education (p-value 0.022) and attitude (p-value 0.000) of HCW were all influencing factor in practice. HCW who have a negative attitude are 5.413 times more to have bad practices than those who have a positive attitude (p-value<0.001;PR=5.413). However, training for HCW and further research are recommended to analyze the availability of personal protective equipment, adequate facilities, hospital policies, or other factors that can influence and motivate the practice of HCW.

Abstract

Catastrophic health expenditure is one of the challenges Indonesia faces in achieving Universal Health Coverage. Aside from being a financial disaster, the incident caused by out-of-pocket health expenditure exceeding a fixed limit can drive people into poverty. Unfortunately, the availability of the data causes the limitation of the study in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the association between catastrophic health expenditure and several social-economic factors by using the latest data of out-of-pocket expenditure collected at the individual level from the 2019 Susenas Module of Health and Housing. Using the Chi-square test, this study confirms a significant association between catastrophic health expenditures and the following social-economic factors: outpatient and inpatient service use, health insurance ownership, age, sex, marital status, educational level, work status, welfare status, type of area, and geographic location. From the logistic regression, the probability of the population to experience catastrophic health expenditure is higher for people in the following categories: use inpatient or outpatient services, do not have health insurance, are elderly, ever-married, not working, not poor, and live in the rural areas or Java island. Disaggregation by outpatient and inpatient service use shows the large gap in the probability of falling into catastrophic health expenditures. The probability for people who used inpatient service is more than four times people who never used the service. Meanwhile, for outpatient service, the probability is almost three times. Therefore, people can strengthen preventive care, especially those with low or no cost, to avoid falling into catastrophic health expenditure.

Abstract

The decline in cognitive function that occurs in the elderly can result in limitations in carrying out daily work, making dependence on others so that it can reduce the quality of life. The purpose of this study was to identify cognitive function disabilities and the factors that influence cognitive function diseases in the elderly in RW 01 Kelurahan Susukan Kecamatan Ciracas, East Jakarta. This study uses a quantitative method through a cross- sectional approach. The population in this study were the elderly aged ≥ 60 years, amount to 386 people. The research sample was 197 people. The independent variables in this study were age, gender, education level, history of degenerative diseases and physical activity and the dependent variable was cognitive function in the elderly. The data was collected using the MMSE (Mini Mental State Examination) and IPAQ (International Physical Activity Questionnaire) questionnaires. Data analysis was carried out by univariate, bivariate with Chi Square test and multivariate with multiple logistic regression test predictive model. The results of the study with variables that had a significant relationship were education level variables (p-value = 0.000), history of degenerative diseases (p-value = 0.019) and physical activity (p-value = 0.000). Variables that did not have a significant relationship with cognitive function were age (p-value=0.190 and gender (p-value=1,000). The results showed that most of the elderly had normal cognitive function and there was a relationship between the level of education, history of degenerative diseases and physical activity with the cognitive function of the elderly. Future research is expected to be able to conduct studies that focus more on a more diverse educational background and develop its relationship with cognitive and dementia incidence.

Abstract

Anemia and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) are indirectly caused by environmental factors. However, there are currently no studies on the differences in hematological parameters of anemia and nutritional intake in adequate and inadequate environmental conditions. This study aims to determine the differences in hematological parameters and nutritional intake of female students based on the environmental conditions of the Islamic boarding schools. It was a descriptive study with a cross-sectional design.  A total of 167 girls from seven Islamic boarding schools in Tasikmalaya, West Java were recruited. Anemia was assessed by determining hemoglobin (Hb) levels, hematocrit (Ht) levels, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH,) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCHC). Environmental conditions of the boarding schools observed were the kitchen, bedrooms, toilet/bathrooms, and the outside environment (trash bins and handwashing stations). The study found that there is no difference in the hematological values (Hb, Ht, MCV, MCH, MCHC, and RDWCV) of students with adequate and inadequate environmental conditions. Students who lived in inadequate environment had higher intake of iron (p<0.005), protein (p<0.005), and vitamin C (p<0.005) than those who lived in adequate environment. However, the nutritional intake of adolescent girls in Islamic boarding schools was considerably lower than Indonesian Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA). Thus, no significant difference in hematological levels, which are indicators of anemia and IDA, could be found. Hence, to protect against anemia and IDA, adolescent girls should increase the quality and quantity of their nutritional intake, particularly iron, protein, and vitamin C.

Abstract

Jakarta is the capital city of Indonesia, with a dense population of more than 10 million population. DKI Jakarta Province is divided into five city areas, including South Jakarta. South Jakarta has an area of 141,17 km2, with more than three million population. The scope for this study focused on two sub-districts in South Jakarta, which are Pasar Minggu and Jagakarsa. The objective of this study was to provide fire risk situations in two sub-districts of South Jakarta. The study used a descriptive method with non-probabilistic sampling. Data collection was performed from June 2021 to July 2021 through focus group discussions (FGDs) and filling out questionnaires. FGDs were performed to the Local Government Fire Brigade, and questionnaires were filled out by the head of the RW. The FGD guideline and questionnaire were developed based on the fire risk assessment checklist. The checklist instrument was developed by utilizing a disaster fire risk approach, including fire hazard, vulnerability, and fire protection, with twenty-two questions. The data was then analyzed using univariate analysis, bar, and spider chart. The results showed three RWs with severe-risk classification. The factors that increase the risk of fire are the use of combustible building materials and the high density of population and buildings. There were several recommendations contributed such as firefighters must have a list of the high-risk areas and develop a rescue evacuation plan, doing a routine inspection in each target area, and raising public awareness for the community to increase participation in fire risk management.

Abstract

Adolescence is one of the stages of the individual growth and development cycle in the age range of 10-24 years and is not yet bound by marital status. One of the risky sexual behaviors that most teenagers do is dating. Dating in adolescence is part of the socialization process, learning intimacy and providing opportunities to create meaningful and unique relationships with the opposite sex, as well as being a context for sexual experimentation and exploration. This study’s aim was to determine various factors associated with premarital sexual behavior at risk in adolescents. This study uses secondary data with a cross sectional design from the 2018 Survei Kinerja dan Akuntabilitas Program Kependudukan, Keluarga Berencana dan Pembangunan Keluarga (SKAP) with a total of 637 adolescents aged 15-24 years and unmarried were selected as a weighted samples. Data was collected through interviews using structured questionnaires, and data analysis was carried out using univariate, bivariate using Chi Square’s test, and multivariate using logistic regression tests. The proportion of risky premarital sexual behavior in adolescents in South Sumatra was 62,4%. Adolescents with higher knowledge about reproductive health had 2.7 times of risk of premarital sexual behavior than else after being controlled by knowledge of family planning, socioeconomic and residence (95% CI: 1.8 – 3.9). This study concludes that knowledge is one of the factors that influence premarital sexual behavior but is not a direct factor. Therefore, the advice that can be given is to involve various parties comprehensively in providing knowledge in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

The COVID-19 cases in Palembang are still increasing every day. This pandemic has forced the adaptation of the "New Normal" lifestyle, which will have an impact on communicable and non-communicable diseases. The Sinovac vaccine used in the COVID-19 vaccination program for Health Care Workers (HCW), which is a top priority, is still a new vaccine, so a survey of complaints and the determinant is important. This study aimed to survey complaints and the determinant of Post COVID-19 Vaccination (Sinovac) Adverse Events among HCW. A cross-sectional study was conducted in Palembang between June and August 2021 on 414 HCWs who received the COVID-19 vaccine injection. The instrument consisted of demographic characteristics, marital status, distance to health care facilities, Body Mass Index (BMI), diet, sleep quality, anxiety, and some medical histories. Overall, although many, all complaints were classified as mild. There was a significant relationship between age, anxiety, and history of food allergy with Post COVID-19 Vaccination Adverse Events (p-value = 0.003; 0.017; 0.050), and anxiety was the determinant of the adverse events (p-value < 0.05). However, there was a significant relationship between age, anxiety, and history of food allergy with Post COVID-19 Vaccination Adverse Events indicates that these factors need to be considered in determining the standard operational procedure for the next vaccination. While there was no significant relationship between obesity, diet, sleep quality, history of drug allergy, atopic disease, hypertension, and dyspepsia syndrome are expected to increase public knowledge and confidence so there will be no worries about receiving the vaccine.
