Abstract

High-risk pregnancies are still common in rural areas. The percentage of high-risk pregnancy in Singorojo sub-district of Kendal District in the last three years has increased significantly. The highest number of cases was in Cening and Singorojo villages. In the past year, 86.88% of pregnancies in Cening village and 55.42% of pregnancies in Singorojo village were categorized as high-risk. The lack in community education limited prevention of high-risk pregnancies. Prenatal Class Plus model is an innovation that was being developed in this study. This is a research and development study with qualitative and quantitative approaches. The “Prenatal Class Plus” model was developed in Cening and Singorojo village. Research subjects were pregnant women, husbands, or families of pregnant women, health cadres, and related stakeholders. Research data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. Prenatal Class Plus model can improve the knowledge, attitude and efforts of pregnant women and their husbands during parturition and prevention of pregnancy complications (P4K).

To confirm malaria vectors, we used enzyme linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA) techniques. The data analyzed descriptively. The results of the study showed proportion 0.20% malaria morbidity in Kilmasa village and 0.23% in Waturu village. Anopheles flavirostris and An. barbirostris group were likely to bite a human outside and inside the house and peaked at 11.00 pm-12.00 pm.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) patients require DM management for life. Research proved that good quality self-care behavior of DM patients in dr. Harjono Regional Public Hospital Ponorogo and in North Ponorogo Community Health Center were still low (28,6% in dr. Harjono Regional Public Hospital Ponorogo and 50% in North Ponorogo Community Health Center). Health care worker communication is related to self-care behavior of DM patients. Differences in hospital and community health center self-care behavior in the previous study results triggered a question on the differences in hospital and community health center workers communication. This study was conducted in 2017 and aimed to explain the difference of health care workers communication regarding DM management in hospital and community health center. This study used comparative research design with 32 respondents from dr. Harjono Regional Public Hospital Ponorogo and 31 respondents from North Ponorogo Community Health Center. The results showed that 78.1% of respondents in hospitals and 93.5% of respondents in community health center stated good health care workers communication. The Fisher’s Exact test found p value of 0.148 which meant that there was no difference in communication of healthcare workers in hospital and community health center. Most patients in both places suffered from DM for 1-5 years and required the same health care workers communication, therefore there was no difference in the communication of health workers in both places.

Abstract

Indonesia still faces a double burden of nutritional problems, especially in children. It is essential to promote balanced nutrition education to mothers of toddler years old. They are more familiar with “4 Healthy and 5 Complete” which has been replaced by “Balanced Nutrition Guidelines” (PUGS). This cross-sectional study aimed to assess the knowledge of mothers about 13 PUGS messages in East Lombok District. This study was conducted using quantitative approach and supported with qualitative data. Data was collected by interviewing 188 mothers, stakeholders, health workers, cadres and community leaders. Data was analyzed using logistic regression to determine which messages are correlated to nutritional status. The result shows that the majority of mothers do not understand PUGS. There is a relationship between mother’s knowledge with children’s nutritional status. Mother’s knowledge of consuming iron-containing foods, drinking clean and sufficient water are associated with children’s nutrition status. PUGS messages are better understood by health workers compared to mothers.
