Abstract

Pregnancy and the postpartum period are periods with a continuous and ongoing risk of HIV/AIDS infection, which are the targets of mother-to-child HIV prevention. Postpartum mothers with HIV positive require special care from health workers, especially midwives who are not only skilled in the technical aspects of patient care, but more than that must have empathy and be skilled in therapeutic communication. The high risk of HIV/AIDS transmission in midwives causes feelings of anxiety and reluctance to provide care to patients. Many health workers experience stress due to work, feelings of anxiety about contracting the disease, feelings of inability to meet job demands or what is expected from the job, which impacts the mental and physical health of midwives, which ultimately impacts the services provided. Objective: To explore the experiences of midwives in caring for postpartum mothers with HIV/AIDS. This type of research is qualitative with an exploratory phenomenological approach. Participants in this study were two midwives who had provided assistance to postpartum mothers with HIV/AIDS. Data collection techniques were observation, interviews, documentation, and triangulation. Data processing was carried out using the Colaizzi approach. The importance of midwives' experience in caring for postpartum mothers with HIV/AIDS will improve the midwives' ability to provide care to postpartum mothers with HIV. The midwives' ability to care for postpartum mothers with HIV/AIDS is also influenced by the midwives' experience in caring for postpartum mothers with HIV/AIDS. Some of the obstacles encountered by midwives in providing care are feelings of anxiety and shame in postpartum mothers that make sufferers disappear and refuse to undergo ANC examinations and refuse treatment. Midwives' hopes in caring for postpartum mothers with HIV/AIDS, postpartum mothers must remain enthusiastic and continue treatment to prolong life and prevent transmission to children, extra support is needed for the mother's psychology, emotional support from health workers and the patient's family. Motivation and deeper support are needed for postpartum mothers with HIV/AIDS in midwife care so that care can be carried out properly without any obstacles.

Abstract

Pregnant women can be at risk of contracting HIV/AIDS because based on age range, the highest number of HIV/AIDS cases are at the age of 25-49 years, and if based on employment status, the second highest number is housewives because... they have had sexual intercourse before, so the risk of infection is high. This study aims to to explore in depth the role of midwives in managing the anxiety levels of pregnant women undergoing HIV tests. The method in this study is a qualitative research type with an exploratory phenomenology approach. Participants in this study were midwives who provided HIV examination services to pregnant women as many as 2 people with the Colaizzi approach. The results found that midwives have an important role in providing services to manage the anxiety levels of pregnant women undergoing HIV tests. Public trust tends to be more towards midwives who have worked for a long time, because they assume that midwives who have worked for a long time have experience, but there are still some mothers who refuse and become Inhibitors then the approach to provide psychological support that can reduce anxiety, shame and fear by providing motivation , deeper support especially family such as husband and parents, so that pregnant women are willing to take an HIV test . It is concluded that there is a relationship between family support and behavior in taking an HIV/AIDS test, because in facing health problems, each individual needs family and motivation from within themselves.

Abstract

To determine the influence of animated video media on adolescent knowledge about HIV/AIDS prevention. Method: Quasy Experiment research design or quasi-experiment with One Group Pretest Posttest Design. Data were collected using a questionnaire then data tabulation and data analysis were carried out.The pre-test value of the animated video media and leaflet groups obtained an average knowledge value that was not much different, namely 5.45 in the treatment group and 5.05 in the leaflet group. This means there was no difference in the average knowledge in the animated video media and leaflet groups before being given knowledge about HIV/AIDS. The level of knowledge of animated video media has an effect compared to leaflet media on HIV/AIDS knowledge. There is a difference in adolescent knowledge about HIV/AIDS before and after being given counseling with animated video media and leaflet media in adolescents.

Abstract

People with HIV/AIDS often experience disturbances in their self concept and well being. A low self concept can cause people with HIV/AIDS to feel worthless, insecure, and hopeless about the future. Low well being can also cause people with HIV/AIDS to experience stress, anxiety, and depression. This study aims to determine the relationship between self-concept and well being variables in HIV AIDS patients. The sampling technique in this study used total sampling with a sample of 35 respondents. Data were collected using questionnaires that had been tested for validity and reliability, which were self-administered by the respondents. The analysis test used Spearman's rho with a p-value of < 0.005. The results of the analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between self-concept and well-being in HIV AIDS patients (sig value = 0.001, p < 0.05). The correlation coefficient (r) was 0.543, indicating a strong positive correlation. Self-concept has a significant relationship with subjective well-being in HIV AIDS patients, which means that HIV AIDS patients who have a positive self concept are more likely to have higher subjective well being.

Abstract

Critically ill patients in intensive care units (ICUs) frequently experience psychological stress, anxiety, and uncertainty, which can adversely affect recovery and overall quality of life. Spiritual well-being is a crucial dimension of holistic care, particularly for Muslim patients, as it promotes inner peace, resilience, and coping during critical illness. Islamic-based caring integrates religious practices, including prayer, dhikr, and Qur’an recitation, into nursing interventions to address patients’ spiritual needs. This narrative review aimed to examine the role of Islamic-based caring in enhancing spiritual well-being among critically ill patients, focusing on its psychological, physiological, and spiritual outcomes, and the contributions of nurses, families, and healthcare institutions in facilitating effective spiritual care. A literature search was conducted in Scopus, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and SINTA using keywords such as “Islamic-based caring,” “Qur’an recitation,” “critical care,” and “spiritual well-being.” Inclusion criteria encompassed peer-reviewed studies on adult ICU or critically ill patients published between 2015 and 2025, in English or Indonesian, and focusing on Islamic spiritual interventions. Excluded were pediatric populations and non-Islamic interventions. After screening 134 articles, 11 studies that met the inclusion criteria were finally analyzed and synthesized narratively. Islamic-based interventions, including Qur’an recitation, audio therapy, prayer facilitation, dhikr, and mindfulness programs, consistently reduced anxiety, depression, and pain while enhancing emotional stability and spiritual well-being. Several studies reported shorter ICU or hospital stays. Nurses were identified as primary facilitators, families provided emotional and spiritual support, and institutional policies and facilities influenced implementation. Islamic-based caring is a safe, cost-effective, and holistic approach that improves psychological, physiological, and spiritual outcomes in critically ill patients. Effective integration requires multi-level collaboration, formal training, supportive policies, and family involvement, reinforcing its potential as a standard component of critical care practice.

Abstract

Many communities have long relied on wild animal consumption as part of cultural tradition and food stability. While culturally significant, this practice presents serious public health risks, particularly the transmission of zoonotic diseases through frequent human wildlife interaction in markets lacking proper food safety. These risks demand urgent public health responses that integrate cultural awareness. Community nurses, as key agents in primary health care, play a vital role in addressing these risks through culturally sensitive education and engagement. This study aims to review cultural perceptions of wild animal consumption and analyze their implications for community nursing, especially in strengthening culturally sensitive education and zoonotic risk. This systematic review followed PRISMA guidelines, using five databases (WoS, Scopus, PubMed, ProQuest, ScienceDirect). Study selection was based on PICo criteria, risk of bias assessed with the JBI checklist, and data analyzed thematically. A total of 4,139 records were identified, and 3,940 duplicates were removed before screening. After title, abstract, and full text screening based on the PICo framework, 15 studies met the inclusion criteria. Fifteen studies were included, spanning regions in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Thematic analysis identified five key themes: (1) cultural beliefs, taboos, and symbolic meanings; (2) traditional uses and medicinal practices; (3) taste preference, nutritional value, and cultural identity; (4) nurse roles in community zoonotic literacy; and (5) socioeconomic drivers and market dynamics. The findings show that cultural beliefs and economic needs often outweigh health concerns in wildlife consumption. Strengthening the role of community nurses in culturally sensitive education and risk communication is essential to reduce zoonotic threats and improve public health responses.

Abstract

Early childhood represents a critical developmental stage in which family care and parenting play a fundamental role in shaping children’s health and growth outcomes. In coastal communities, socioeconomic challenges, limited parental supervision, and constrained educational access may influence parenting practices and, consequently, children’s physical growth. To identify the dominant parenting style among coastal families in Semarang City and analyse its association with toddlers’ physical growth. This quantitative cross-sectional study involved 371 families with toddlers aged 1–5 years living in North Semarang District, a coastal area of Semarang City. Samples were selected using stratified random sampling. Data were collected through a validated parenting style questionnaire based on Baumrind’s theory and anthropometric measurements following WHO Child Growth Standards. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and the Chi-square test (p < 0.05). The permissive parenting style was the most dominant (49.9%), followed by authoritarian (27.5%) and authoritative/democratic (22.6%). Most toddlers (68.2%) showed normal growth, while 31.8% experienced problems such as underweight, stunting, or wasting. A significant association was found between parenting style and toddlers’ physical growth (χ² = 13.21; p = 0.001). Children raised with an authoritative (democratic) style had the highest proportion of normal growth (82.1%). Permissive parenting predominates among coastal families, reflecting socioeconomic constraints and limited parental involvement. Parenting style significantly affects child growth; thus, family-based interventions promoting structured and responsive parenting are essential to prevent growth problems in vulnerable coastal communities.

Abstract

The increasing elderly population increases the demand for geriatric care, while nurse retention remains a major concern due to high workloads, emotional demands, and limited organizational support. High turnover disrupts care continuity and reduces service quality. This systematic review aims to identify key psychological and organizational factors influencing geriatric nurse retention. Method: The review followed PRISMA 2023 guidelines using the PEOS framework. Quantitative cross-sectional studies published between 2015–2025 were retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, ProQuest, Springer Nature, and ScienceDirect. Study quality was evaluated using the JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist. A total of 13 studies met the inclusion criteria, while 28,076 were excluded. Findings were narratively synthesized to integrate the overall evidence. Thirteen studies from multiple countries identified five main themes: psychological and organizational factors, individual characteristics, student interest, and the interaction between personal and institutional conditions. Intrinsic motivation, social and organizational support, and safe, flexible work environments enhance retention, whereas burnout, excessive workload, and low salary reduce retention intentions.  Geriatric nurse retention is influenced by psychological, social, and organizational factors. Supportive leadership, flexible work policies, and early geriatric education are important for sustaining long-term engagement in geriatric nursing.

Abstract

Stunting is a condition of growth failure in children under five caused by chronic malnutrition that occurs over a long period, characterized by a z-score value of less than -2 standard deviations. The global prevalence of stunting among children under five in 2024 was 23.2%. This study aims to collect evidence from published articles regarding the relationship between maternal education and the risk of stunting. This study employed a systematic review method following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Article searches were conducted using three databases: ScienceDirect, MDPI, and PubMed. The inclusion criteria for this study were articles published between 2021 and 2025, while the exclusion criteria were duplicate articles, those without full text, those with irrelevant titles or abstracts, and systematic reviews. A total of 827 articles were identified, 16 articles were reviewed (2 from ScienceDirect, 1 from MDPI, 13 from Pubmed), consisting of 14 cross-sectional studies and 2 cohort studies. The review found that almost all studies demonstrated a significant association between maternal education and stunting incidence. These findings were consistent across various countries, including Indonesia, Ethiopia, China, Uganda, Iran, Bangladesh, and several regions in Africa. Maternal education has been proven to be associated with the risk of stunting among children under five. The lower the mother’s level of education, the higher the risk of stunting; conversely, higher maternal education is associated with a lower risk of stunting. Several countries have implemented both health and non-health sector programs to prevent stunting. In Brazil, initiatives to improve women’s access to education have successfully reduced stunting prevalence, whereas such programs have not yet been implemented in Indonesia.
