Abstract

Introduction: The incidence of low-birth-weight infants is still high and requires serious attention to prevent infant mortality. This study aimed to analyze the causes of low-birth-weight infants' nutritional status and maternal health history. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in May to July 2021 at two hospitals in Surabaya. The study involved 498 mothers who had newborns within three years from 2019 and were recruited using simple random sampling. The inferential test was conducted using logistics regression with a significance level of 0.05. Results: According to the adjusted model, variables that were significantly associated with the incidence of low-birthweight infants were the husband's job as private worker (OR=0.021; 95% CI = 0.023-0.123), child number as one (OR=0.214; 95% CI = 0.114-3.428), parity as prime (OR=0.749; 95% CI = 0.197-3.652) and history of low-birth-weight infants in previous births (OR=0.015; 95% CI = 0.004-0.006). Conclusions: Individual and family factors remand an essential variable in low-birth-weight prevalence. Nurses are responsible for providing socialization to mothers and fathers who are having and planning to have children. Cultural factors in the family and community where the mother lives also need to be carried out in further research.

Abstract

Introduction: Adolescents often have difficulty adjusting to their surroundings. Coping and family support are also associated with this adjustment. However, the relationship between the aforementioned factors and adjustment among adolescents with parents who work as migrant workers remains unclear. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between coping and family support with the adjustment of adolescents who have parents who work as migrant workers. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. A total of 70 early adolescents with parents working as migrant workers were recruited from the total sample. In this study, coping strategies and family social support were assigned as independent variables, while the dependent variable was the adjustment of adolescents who had parents as migrant workers. The questionnaire was used to measure the outcome of interest and tested for validity and reliability. The data analysis in this study used Spearman Rho. Spearman's Rho correlation with alpha, α set ≤ 0.05, was used to analyze the data. Results: The results indicate that Coping strategies (p = 0.018; r = 0.283) and family support (p = 0.001; r = 0.380) were associated with adolescent adjustment. Conclusions: Both coping strategies and family support contribute to the adjustment of adolescents whose parents work as migrant workers. There is a need to increase the priority of psychosocial counseling for adolescents who have parents working as migrant workers and educate their families to increase attention and support appropriate adolescent development.

Abstract

Introduction: Little is known about the cognitive and emotional perceptions of patients with mild traumatic brain injury, although studies showed patients experiencing difficulties in cognitive functioning and psychological impacts following their injury. This systematic review aims to identify the current literature regarding illness representation dimensions in mild traumatic brain injury and their related factors. Methods: A search of electronic databases was completed using PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, and Web of Science, which were published from 2002 to April 2020. Studies were assessed for quality and bias, and data were analyzed using narrative synthesis. Results: The initial search yielded 155 studies, and ten were included. The results showed that patients had negative perceptions toward their mild traumatic brain injury. Some dimensions of illness representation were found to have relationships to their post-concussion symptoms, post-traumatic stress disorder, and quality of life of mild traumatic brain injury patients. Conclusions: The illness representations can be applied to such patients because it is able to explain symptoms and related factors that indicate their recovery process. The findings help trauma nurses to build interventions based on the dimensions of illness representations to generate appropriate perceptions after injury, and may to enhance the recovery process and outcomes.

Data saturation was achieved after the researcher conducted an in-depth interview of 27 informants and FGD of 13 informants. A total 40 informants from PwCUCs, family of PwCUCs, doctors, and nurses was recruited based on inclusion criteria using purposive sampling technique. The researcher developed an in-depth interview and FGD guidelines to collect the data. Six-step thematic analysis was used. Triangulation, member-checking, and thick description were performed to maintain trustworthiness. Results: The study yielded four themes that represent participants' voices. These were 1) social support needs, 2) accompanying needs, 3) information needs, and 4) healthcare service support. Conclusion: Supportive care needs for PwCUCs is a complex and contextual phenomenon. This study revealed that PwCUCs required individual, social, and healthcare service support to meet their needs. Therefore, further study is required regarding developing a nursing care plan for PwCUCs based on cultural-sensitive supportive care needs.
