Abstract

Background: Normal Childbirth Care or APN is a standard or a reference for childbirth assistance and a breast crawl, or called IMD, in Indonesia; however, there is lack of its implementation in the midwifery practice. Breast crawl is considered effective in increasing breast milk production among postpartum mothers.Objective: The aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of breast crawl by midwives to increase the breast milk production in postpartum mothers in Kendari, Indonesia.Methods: True experimental study with posttest only control group design. A total of 30 midwives participated using a total sampling technique. Respondents were given intervention regarding the implementation of breast crawl using the breast crawl pocket book as a research instrument. Data were analyzed using Mann-Whitney test to determine the differences in respondents who were given IMD intervention using the breast crawl pocket book and the control group who did not use the breast crawl pocket book.Result: There was a significant difference between respondents who were given intervention using pocket books and the control group who did not use pocket books with p = 0.039 (<0.05).Conclusion: There was a significant difference between the breast milk production of postpartum mothers who were given breast crawl intervention and those who were not given breast crawl intervention by midwives. This intervention is therefore recommended as one of midwifery cares in the community health centers.

Abstract

Background: Anemia is an indirect cause of death for pregnant women and women in labor due to bleeding. One of the inabilities of the uterine muscles to contract is caused by anemia. The use of integrated service posts or Posyandu, especially in the fourth and fifth steps as a stage of individual health promotion, should prevent anemia in mothers.Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of midwives in the implementation of the fifth stage of function in integrated service posts in relation to preventing anemia in mothers.Methods: This was a qualitative study with a phenomenological approach conducted from January to November 2020. The participants consisted of eight midwives, two nutritionists, one laboratory analyst, six cadres, and two pregnant women. The participants were selected using accidental sampling in the Poasia Public Health Center working area, Kendari, Southeast Sulawesi of Indonesia.Results: The results showed two themes related to the implementation of the fifth stage of the integrated service post activities: pregnancy examination and treatment of anemia.Conclusion: The implementation of the fifth stage in the integrated service postal service has been carried out maximally utilizing the resources owned by the public health center and the community. However, midwives receive additional burdens for its implementation because cadres are less able to provide health education for pregnant women, especially regarding anemia. The study was supported by the Research and Community Engagement Directory (DRPM) of the Republic of Indonesia.

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence and risk factors of underweight among adolescents in Indonesia in 2015.Methods: Cross-sectional data were analyzed from 7643 school-going adolescents from Indonesia, the "Global School-Based Student Health Survey (GSHS)" in 2015. Bodyweight was inspected by self-reported weight and height and the standards of child body mass index from WHO. The data were analyzed by univariate, bivariate, and associations with underweight were assessed using multinomial logistic regression analysis.Results: The prevalence of adolescents was found that 3002 (39.3%) were underweight in Indonesia, 2015. Sex of the adolescent who has high risk underweight was female (AOR=1.72, 95% CI=1.57-1.90) with an age range of 10-15 years old (AOR=2.37, 95% CI=2.09-2.69). Alcohol use (AOR=0.73, 95% CI=0.60-0.89) and drug use (AOR=1.82, 95% CI=1.01-3.04) were risk behavior factors for underweight among adolescents in Indonesia.Conclusion: High prevalence of underweight for adolescent were identified in Indonesia. Several correlates were identified which can help to adjust interventions from the government to the adolescent in each province.

Abstract

Background: With the rapid development of smartphones in the market, phubbing has become popular, which is a behavior of ignoring someone in the environment because it focuses more on gadgets than on building conversations.Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore causes of phubbing, and its impact on the health of adolescents, especially students. Methods: This study employed a qualitative research design conducted in June 2021 at Halu Oleo University, Indonesia, among students in the fourth semester. Focus Group Discussion and In-Depth interviews were used for data collection. Data analysis was thematic.Result: The results showed that the students realized that an individual with phubbing behavior tends to forget the interaction activities in the surrounding environment. The duration of smartphone usage was from two hours to ten hours per day.  Phubbing is becoming a phenomenon among students due to the need to get the latest information or news during their studies.Conclusion: There are many reasons for phubbing, including obtaining updated knowledge and information that leads to social media use more often, eliminating boredom, seeking entertainment, and staying in touch with friends and parents. However, phubbing impacts physical health, such as headaches, soreness in the eyes, the strain on the neck, and mental/social health, such as anxiety, fear, discomfort, and disruption of social interactions. It is therefore recommended to remind the students not to use smartphones excessively.

Abstract

Background: Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), one type of infectious disease caused by the dengue virus, is still becoming a public health problem in Indonesia. The high number of dengue cases in Indonesia, especially in Kendari City itself, is closely related to environmental conditions, especially when it is known that the city has entered the rainy season.Objective: This study aimed to identify and analyze the factors associated with the presence of mosquito eggs trapped in ovitraps DHF-endemic area in Kendari City, Indonesia.Methods: This study used an analytic observational approach with a cross-sectional design. The research sample in this study was 50 houses located in endemic areas of Kendari selected using simple random sampling. Data were collected by observation using a checklist sheet and direct observation in each room of the respondent's house based on lighting, temperature, humidity, and physical environmental conditions, as well as the presence of mosquito eggs or larvae trapped in the ovitrap. The analysis was carried out in two stages, namely univariate analysis and bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test.Result: From 50 houses observed, 13 houses (26%) had the presence of mosquito eggs, 42 houses (84%) had bad air temperature, 19 houses (38%) had poor humidity, and 35 houses (70%) had a higher frequency. In addition, the temperature, lighting, and environmental conditions did not have a significant relationship with the presence of mosquito eggs in ovitraps in endemic areas of Kendari City, with p-values of 0.94, 0.52, and 0.39, respectively. In contrast, the humidity factor has a significant relationship with the presence of eggs with a p-value of 0.000.Conclusion: There was a significant relationship between humidity and the presence of mosquito eggs in ovitraps in endemic areas of Kendari City, Indonesia. It is recommended that residents increase Mosquito Nest Eradication (PSN) activities, perform selective abatization, and disseminate information about DHF through counseling or other activities conveyed through health workers with full support from community leaders and adjusted to the level of education of the local population.
