Abstract

This empirical case study evaluated the clinical efficacy of finger holding relaxation therapy as an autonomous, non pharmacological nursing intervention to alleviate preoperative anxiety in maternal patients undergoing Cesarean section preparations. Conducted at Columbia Asia Semarang Surgical Hospital in May 2026, the study utilized a descriptive one group pretest posttest design involving five homogenous maternal candidates selected through purposive sampling. The clinical protocol required structured manual digital compression administered for fifteen minutes daily over two consecutive days in a quiet, controlled environment, with anxiety levels quantified using the standardized Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale. The baseline metrics revealed a uniform distribution of moderate anxiety across all participants, which was successfully down regulated to mild anxiety post intervention, yielding a meaningful reduction in systemic emotional distress. The psychophysiological mechanism involves peripheral nerve stimulation that triggers parasympathetic activation, thereby reducing adrenaline and cortisol production while providing an effective somatosensory distraction from procedural fear. Adherence to a strict Standard Operating Procedure preserved high internal validity, confirming this technique is safe, reproducible, and highly effective for optimizing preoperative readiness.

Abstract

Stunting remains a critical public health challenge requiring community-based interventions that strengthen maternal knowledge and nutritional practices. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the DASHAT BINTANG Program in improving mothers’ knowledge regarding stunting prevention in Sedayu Village. An empirical pre-experimental study with a one-group pretest-posttest design was conducted involving 10 mothers of toddlers selected through total sampling. Data were collected using structured knowledge assessments before and after an intervention consisting of nutritional education, child growth monitoring guidance, balanced feeding practices based on the Isi Piringku guideline, and a local food processing demonstration. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. The results showed an increase in the mean knowledge score from 96 to 116 after the intervention, with a statistically significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p = 0.017). The program also improved mothers’ understanding and practical awareness regarding the utilization of local food for toddler nutrition. The DASHAT BINTANG Program represents an effective community-based strategy for strengthening maternal capacity in supporting stunting prevention through integrated education and practical empowerment.

Abstract

Knowledge of medical malpractice is believed to play a significant role in shaping medical students’ attitudes toward professionalism as future physicians; however, research on the relationship between the two at the academic level remains limited. This study aims to determine the relationship between knowledge of medical malpractice and medical students’ attitudes toward professionalism. An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted on 144 medical students from the Faculty of Medicine at Sultan Agung Islamic University, class of 2022, using total sampling. Data were collected via questionnaires on knowledge of medical malpractice and professional attitudes, then analyzed using Spearman’s rank correlation test. All respondents (100%) had a high level of knowledge regarding medical malpractice and a good level of professionalism. The correlation test results showed a significant relationship (rs = 0.288; p = 0.000) with a positive direction; however, the strength of the correlation was classified as weak. There is a significant relationship between knowledge of medical malpractice and professionalism among medical students, although knowledge is not the sole determining factor.

Abstract

Anemia remains an important maternal health problem in Indonesia, particularly during pregnancy when physiological and nutritional demands increase. Maternal nutritional status, as reflected by Body Mass Index (BMI), may contribute to anemia because inadequate nutritional reserves can affect the availability of nutrients required for hemoglobin synthesis. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between BMI and anemia among first-trimester pregnant women at Kedungwuni I Community Health Center, Pekalongan Regency, in 2026. This empirical quantitative study employed a correlational approach with a cross-sectional design. A total of 57 first-trimester pregnant women were selected using purposive sampling based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected through anthropometric assessment to determine BMI and hemoglobin measurement to identify anemia status. Descriptive analysis was conducted to characterize BMI and anemia distribution, while the Chi-Square test was used to examine the relationship between the two variables at a 95% confidence level. The findings showed that 6 respondents (10.5%) were underweight, 16 (28.1%) had normal BMI, 12 (21.1%) were overweight, and 23 (40.4%) were obese. Anemia was identified in 7 respondents (12.3%), while 50 (87.7%) were not anemic. All underweight respondents experienced anemia, compared with 1 respondent (1.8%) in the normal BMI category. The Chi-Square test yielded p < 0.001, indicating a significant relationship between BMI and anemia. These findings support early BMI and hemoglobin screening as complementary components of antenatal care.

Abstract

Stunting is a chronic linear growth disorder in children that may begin during pregnancy and is influenced by maternal and environmental factors. Antenatal Care (ANC) plays an important role in stunting prevention through monitoring maternal and fetal health, detecting pregnancy risk factors, providing supplementation, and delivering health education. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between maternal ANC history and stunting incidence among toddlers aged 24–59 months in the service area of Godong 1 Community Health Center in 2025. An analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 183 mothers with toddlers aged 24–59 months, with the sample size determined using the Slovin formula. ANC history was assessed based on the number and timing of visits and the completeness of documented ANC service components in the Maternal and Child Health Book or medical records. Data were collected using an observation sheet and analyzed through univariate and bivariate analyses using the Chi-Square test. A total of 125 respondents (68.3%) had a good ANC history, while 58 (31.7%) had an inadequate ANC history. Stunting was identified in 133 toddlers (72.7%). Among mothers with inadequate ANC histories, 55 toddlers (94.8%) experienced stunting, compared with 78 toddlers (62.4%) among those with good ANC histories. The Chi-Square test demonstrated a significant relationship between ANC history and stunting (p<0.001; X²=20.980), with an odds ratio of 11.047. Inadequate ANC history was associated with approximately 11-fold higher odds of stunting. Optimizing the frequency, timing, and completeness of ANC services is essential for strengthening stunting prevention from pregnancy.

Abstract

Acute pain is a common postoperative problem following cesarean section and may interfere with maternal mobility, rest, comfort, and daily caregiving activities. Deep breathing relaxation is a simple, low-cost non-pharmacological intervention that can be integrated into nursing care to support postoperative pain management. This study aimed to describe the application of deep breathing relaxation and changes in pain intensity among patients following cesarean section. An empirical descriptive case-study design was applied to five postpartum women who had undergone cesarean section and received inpatient care at four hospitals in Batang and Pekalongan, Indonesia. Pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale before and after the intervention, which was administered once to twice daily for 10–15 minutes per session throughout a 3 × 24-hour hospitalization period. All participants demonstrated decreased pain intensity, with individual pre-intervention scores of 5, 3, 8, 6, and 6 and a mean score of 5.6, which decreased to post-intervention scores of 2, 2, 3, 2, and 3 with a mean of 2.4. The mean reduction was 3.2 points, and all participants reached the mild-pain category at final assessment, indicating that deep breathing relaxation may serve as a feasible complementary nursing intervention for post-cesarean pain management. The findings remain descriptive because standard postoperative care, including analgesic therapy, continued and no control group was included, limiting causal interpretation of the observed changes.

Abstract

Preeclampsia remains a major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality and is frequently managed by cesarean section. Altered vascular permeability, proteinuria, and perioperative stress may contribute to reduced serum albumin concentrations. This study aimed to describe serum albumin levels among post-cesarean mothers with preeclampsia at Bendan Regional General Hospital, Pekalongan City, in 2025. A descriptive observational design with a retrospective approach was used. Secondary data were obtained from medical records and laboratory information systems and analyzed descriptively. Previous evidence indicates that hypoalbuminemia is common in preeclampsia and cesarean populations, with lower albumin concentrations associated with severe disease, proteinuria, fluid-related complications, and impaired postoperative recovery. Indonesian multicenter studies further demonstrate a high burden of severe preeclampsia and cesarean delivery. Serum albumin is a clinically relevant complementary laboratory parameter for evaluating post-cesarean mothers with preeclampsia. Its interpretation should be integrated with blood pressure, proteinuria, renal and hepatic function, fluid balance, and postoperative findings, rather than serving as an isolated marker of severity or postoperative prognosis in routine practice. These findings support hospital-based monitoring and further analytical research.

Abstract

Knowledge is an important determinant of medication-taking behavior among patients with gout, particularly in border communities with limited access to health information. Objective: This study examined the relationship between knowledge level and appropriate gout medication use among patients receiving allopurinol in Seluas Village, West Kalimantan–Malaysia border area. An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted from January to March 2026 among 64 respondents selected through total sampling. Data were collected using a validated questionnaire and analyzed using univariate analysis and the Chi-square test. Most respondents were women (53.1%), aged 56–65 years (40.6%), educated to junior high school level (53.1%), and farmers (56.3%). Poor knowledge was identified in 44 respondents (68.8%), whereas 20 respondents (31.2%) had good knowledge. Among those with poor knowledge, 43 (97.7%) used medication inappropriately, while 16 of 20 respondents (80.0%) with good knowledge used medication appropriately. A significant association was found between knowledge level and medication use (p < 0.001). Strengthening patient education and pharmaceutical counseling may improve appropriate allopurinol use and support effective long-term gout management in border communities with constrained healthcare information access.

Abstract

The SOBAT IF (Integrated Pharmaceutical Medicine and Medical Consumables System) innovation application represents a digital transformation initiative implemented by the Pharmacy Installation under the Semarang City Health Office to improve pharmaceutical logistics management. This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of SOBAT IF by examining its operational responsiveness, efficiency and effectiveness, user capacity, and sustainability. An empirical descriptive qualitative design was employed, involving five personnel from the Semarang City Pharmacy Installation who were directly engaged in managing, operating, monitoring, or supporting the application. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, direct observation of pharmaceutical distribution activities and application use, and documentation, followed by thematic analysis to identify recurring patterns related to implementation benefits, user experiences, operational barriers, and future development. The findings indicate that SOBAT IF was positively accepted because barcode tracking, real-time information, batch identification, and visual expiry indicators facilitated pharmaceutical recording, distribution monitoring, and stock management. The value of expired pharmaceutical losses decreased from Rp93,480,333.00 in 2022 to Rp81,531,932.00 in 2024, indicating improved inventory control, although the reduction cannot be attributed exclusively to the application. Key implementation challenges included unstable internet connectivity, differences in digital literacy among personnel, and budget limitations for system development. The evaluation indicates that sustainable improvement requires continuous technical development, user training, infrastructure strengthening, external collaboration, and adequate institutional support..
