Abstract

Background: Open defecation is one of the public health problems.  Such behavior will lead to contamination of water and food sources, which can cause several diseases, one of which is caused by polluted water (water-borne diseases).Objective: This research aimed to describe open defecation behavior in elementary school-aged children in Kendari City, Indonesia.Methods: This was a descriptive survey carried out on 11-12 June 2021 among 87 students. Open defecation behavior was seen from knowledge and attitude of open defecation and availability of latrines. Validated questionnaires were used to measure the variables. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis.Results: The results showed that the students lacked knowledge (42%) and negative attitudes (44%). In addition, 11% of the respondents did not have latrines; therefore, open defecation still exists.Conclusion: The findings of this study indicated that most of the respondents had poor knowledge and attitude regarding the impact of open defecation on health. Therefore, the results can be used as the basic data to develop further research, and indeed, to inform public health workers to pay attention to this issue and health education related to open defecation behavior is highly needed.

Abstract

Background: Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) is one of the health indicators to see maternal survival in general and is a component in the health development index. Maternal Mortality Rate is also an important indicator of the quality of health services and the performance of the Health system.Objective: This study aimed to analyze the spatial patterns of maternal mortality based on the mortality causes in Sambas District, West Kalimantan, Indonesia.Methods: This study used a descriptive and exploratory approach to be able to see the distribution of maternal mortality and the coverage of the distribution of health care facilities. A spatial pattern was carried out to analyze the distribution pattern of maternal mortality cases using the Average Nearest Neighbor.Results: The results showed that most maternal mortality causes include bleeding, pregnancy hypertension, circulation system disorders (heart, stroke), metabolic disorders (diabetes mellitus), and other causes, such as pulmonary embolism. The analysis using a buffer of 3 kilometers and 5 kilometers show that not all the areas are covered by health service facilities in the Sambas district. Analysis of the mean of the nearest neighbors showed that the Nearest Neighbor ratio was 1.039398 with a z-score of 1.022396, which means that the pattern of distribution of maternal death according to the cause of death has a random pattern.Conclusion: The spatial pattern of cases of maternal death according to the cause of death in the Sambas district, West Kalimantan, Indonesia, has a random pattern. This finding can be used as a basis for decreasing the maternal mortality rate.

The impact raised is not merely in terms of material but also non-material.Objective: This research was aimed to know the correlation between risky riding behavior and the accident of motorcycles experienced by university students of Halu Oleo University of Kendari, Indonesia.Methods: This research utilized the cross-sectional design. Data were collected on June 2021 using a validated questionnaire online among 251 respondents. Results: 84.5% of respondents had ever experienced motorcycle accidents. There was a correlation between listening to music while riding (p = 0.973), riding with the speed more than 50 km/hour (p = 0.220), sudden braking (p = 0.267), overtaking without turning rear light (p = 0.518), with the motorcycle accidents.Conclusion: The dangerous riding behavior can potentially decrease the rider's ability and increase the possibility of a car accident. The university could improve safe riding through empowering and encouraging education about riding towards students.

Abstract

Background: Nutrition problems are the main public health issues in developing countries, including Indonesia. Malnutrition will lead to failure of physical growth and development of intelligence, decreased work productivity, and reduced endurance resulting in increased rates of pain and death. Therefore, mothers have an essential role in the prevention of nutritional disorders in children.Objective: To compare the nutritional status of primary school children based on maternal assessment and anthropometry measurements and analyze factors that influence the mother's misperceptions about the nutritional status of the children.Methods: A cross-sectional research design was used. A total of 96 mothers of elementary school students were included. Quota sampling was used in selecting samples based on population characteristics. Children's nutritional status was classified according to WHO anthropometry standards 2006 for children aged 5-18 years based on age and gender. The mother's perception of the child's nutritional status was measured using an online validated questionnaire (Google Form). Descriptive and bivariate statistics were used for data analysis.Results: 56.2% of mothers gave an appropriate assessment of the nutritional status of the children. Education and work significantly influenced the accuracy of the mother's perception of their children's nutritional status. A total of 38.4% of mothers with high school education levels misjudged their child's nutritional status compared to those who did not finish high school (p = 0.058). Also, 56.3% of non-working mothers were wrong in assessing their child's nutritional status compared to working mothers (p=0.014).Conclusion: The results of this study can be used to improve the knowledge and skills of mothers in assessing the nutritional status of children as one of the strategies to reduce the incidence of malnutrition in children.
