Abstract

Peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.) are plant-based foods that are abundantly available in Indonesia which also have high economic value and are an essential source of protein for many people. In Aceh, peanuts are one of the leading commodities, especially in the districts of Pidie, West Aceh, Aceh Jaya, Nagan Raya, Southwest Aceh and South Aceh. Apart from being rich in protein, it also contains fibre, antioxidants, and other good health components. During germination, proteins, starches, and lipids are metabolised by enzymes. These components are used as building blocks for growth and as a source of energy for respiration. Germination has the advantage of increasing several levels of nutrients, eliminating oligosaccharides that cause flatulence, and increasing several types of vitamins. Previous research reported that soybean germination significantly increased isoflavone levels and antioxidant activity of fresh tempeh flour produced. In this study, the antioxidant activity of peanut sprouts was identified using the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazine-hydrate) radical scavenging method in three different germination times. The result shows that the most optimal percentage of antioxidant activity is the 48-hour treatment (88.24%). It also shows that the germination treatment can increase the per cent of antioxidant activity compared to peanuts without germination.

Abstract

Health Information System is a systematic way of managing information at all levels of government to provide healthcare services to the community. In providing services to the community, the health information system is a systemic management of information at all levels of government. Every healthcare facility in Indonesia must maintain electronic medical records based on Permenkes No. 24/2022. This shows that the role of Health Information Systems is needed in a health system. However, using electronic medical records (EMR) in Indonesian healthcare facilities must be uniformly and sufficiently implemented, so it cannot provide accurate and timely data. This study aims to assess the implementation of EMR in Indonesian hospitals. This study used the literature review method by reviewing 15 journal articles published between 2016 and 2022, retrieved through Google Scholar. The results showed that several hospitals in Indonesia had implemented EMR; some hospitals have effectively implemented it and benefit from the implementation of EMR, such as improving the efficiency of time and effort in providing health services to patients. Patients also receive better medical care. The study findings aim to encourage all healthcare facilities to optimize the use of EMR to enhance healthcare services.

Abstract

Hospital is a health service institution that provides comprehensive personal health services, including medical services, medical rehabilitation and maintenance services. These services are carried out through the emergency department, outpatient unit and inpatient unit. Specialists and subspecialist doctors in hospitals provide outpatient services. By reviewing published works in 10 journals from 2015 to 2022, we examine the relationship between BPJS patient satisfaction level and service quality with the keywords service satisfaction journal search, BPJS, and Hospitals. The analytical tool used was PICO. The results of the study found that based on satisfaction indicators, there were seven dissatisfied journals (66.7%) on all the hands described (Tangibility, Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance and Empathy) from 9 journals (90%) dissatisfied with BPJS services in hospitals. Patient satisfaction will impact the quality of service in a hospital.

Abstract

The study aimed to investigate the relationship between stunting and completeness of immunization among children under five years old in Indonesia. The study used a cross-sectional design with a quantitative approach, utilizing secondary data from the Indonesian Family Life Study (IFLS) V big data in 2014. The sample consisted of children aged 12-59 months from 13 provinces in Indonesia, representing 83% of the total population. Data were analyzed using SPSS and STATA programs. Statistical analysis was performed to determine the association between immunization status and stunting. The results showed a significant statistical relationship (p-value <0.05) between immunization status and stunting occurrence among children aged 12-59 months in Indonesia, with a p-value of 0.001 and a PR value of 1.2 (95% CI: 1.14-1.6). Children who receive incomplete immunization have a 1.2 times greater risk of stunting compared to those who receive complete immunization. The study concluded that completeness of immunization is associated with stunting among children under five years old in Indonesia. Therefore, it is essential to ensure complete immunization coverage to prevent stunting in this population.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a public health issue worldwide, affecting all age groups, despite being a preventable and curable disease. This study investigated the relationship between medication supervisors (RMS) and family support in medication adherence in pulmonary TB patients. This study is an observational type using a case-control design. The research was conducted in the working area of the Johan Pahlawan Community Health Center, West Aceh Regency, Aceh Province, in 2022. A total of 34 participants were recruited using the purposive sampling technique, with 17 participants in each group, i.e., the case group (non-adherent) and the control group (adherent). To minimise bias, matching was performed based on the participants' sex between the case and control groups. The chi-square test was used to test the hypothesis or to answer the research question, and the analysis was performed using computer software. The results showed that the p-value for the RMS and family support with medication adherence was <0.05, indicating a significant relationship. Thus, it can be concluded that RMS and family support significantly influence medication adherence among pulmonary TB patients.
