Abstract

Tuberculosis is a global issue due to its high mortality rate, especially in developing countries. In 2020, the prevalence of positive Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Papua Province was 540 cases, and 14 were children aged 0-14 years. Tuberculosis prevention can be achieved by providing health education to increase knowledge and develop a good preventive attitude and behaviour. The study aimed to increase knowledge about tuberculosis prevention using video at Bertingkat Perumnas 1 Waena Elementary School. The study is a pre-experimental study with one group pre-post test design. Thirty samples that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected by simple random sampling from a total population of 62 students in grades 4 and 5. The data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The results showed a significant difference between knowledge about tuberculosis prevention before and after intervention (p=0.002). Respondents with good knowledge before the intervention were eight respondents (26.7%) increased to 17 respondents (56.7%) after the intervention, while respondents who had sufficient knowledge before the intervention amounted to 21 respondents (70%), decreased to 13 respondents (43.3%) after the intervention. After the intervention, no respondents were included in the low knowledge category. These concluded that health education using video affects the knowledge about tuberculosis prevention at SD Inpress Bertingkat Perumnas 1 Waena.

Abstract

The successful development of a nation is influenced by quality human resources, namely human resources, which are physically demanding, mentally strong, in excellent health, and have a good level of achievement. The development and training of exceptional quality human resources start early when they are school-age. Based on the 2018 Riskesdas, the prevalence of wasting in Sorong City is 10.7%, which means it is above the national average majority. School-age children are in a period of transition from children to adults. There is mental, physical, and emotional growth that is quite fast at this time. Providing Supplemental Food for School Children is a program to restore the nutritional intake of students in elementary schools. Apart from improving nutrition, this program is also helpful for introducing children to healthy and nutritious food. The research was conducted in 2 elementary schools in Sorong City from July to November 2021. The study aimed to analyze the effect of giving purple sweet potato dodol on weight gain in malnourished children. Malnourished children were obtained through screening in 2 schools. The study used a quasi-experimental design using the Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design. The sample was 30 malnourished children who were divided into an experimental group and a control group. The sampling technique is accidental sampling. Data collection was carried out by measuring body weight using digital scales. The statistical test uses the independent sample t-test. The results showed that giving purple sweet potato dodol as much as 100 grams/day/child increased the weight of malnourished children. Purple sweet potato dodol of 100 gr/day/child is recommended as a supplementary food for malnourished children with consideration of its acceptability and good nutritional value. Socialization of functional food as a basic ingredient in increasing the weight of children with undernourished status must be encouraged.  Keywords: Dodol, Malnutrition, Purple Sweet Potato, Supplementary Food Weight

Abstract

Research by the Institute for Health Measurement and Evaluation (IHME) in 2014 stated that obese people worldwide increased to 2.1 billion in 2013. Factors determining weight gain problems include high energy intake that exceeds needs, such as fast food consumption, ice cream, fries, and burgers. Seaweed is known to be high in fiber and is very well used as a food raw material to overcome the problem of weight gain. Siomay is a food favored by all people in Indonesia. The research aimed to analyze the acceptability of seaweed puree formulation into dumpling products. This study is experimental with a completely randomized design (CRD) with four treatments, namely F0 (0%), F1 (25%), F2 (45%), and F3 (55%), with two replications. The panelists in this study consisted of 30 people. The results showed that the acceptability of siomay products with the addition of seaweed puree, which on the attributes of color (p = 0.948), aroma (p = 0.401), texture (p = 0.074), and aftertaste (p = 0.561) did not have a significant effect on product quality. Meanwhile, based on the results of the acceptance test on taste, it was found that there was a significantly different effect (p = 0.044) on dumpling products with the addition of seaweed puree formulations with various concentrations. Results of the product acceptability analysis show that seaweed dumplings with the addition of 45% seaweed puree (F2) are the most preferred and selected formula in this study.

Abstract

Decompression diseases can provide manifestations that vary from mild to those that can cause disability and even life-threatening. This condition significantly affects the quality of life of sufferers and impacts meeting their personal care needs and productivity as the head of the family. This condition also impacts the family economy, affecting the lives of other family members. The purpose of the study was to see the effect of a range of motion exercise (ROM)  therapy and modified constraint-induced movement (MCIM) on the ability of a joint range of motion in traditional fishermen who experience paralysis due to decompression disease. This exercise aims to improve the power of the limb that has paralysis. The combination of these two therapies can aid in preventing contractures, enhance the ability of a joint range of motion and increase muscle strength. The type of research in this study is a quasi-experiment with design, or the research design carried out in this study is the pretest-posttest one-group design. The population in this study was all Traditional Divers in Soropia District. Sampling in this study with purposive sampling technique is a traditional diver who experiences paralysis. Data analysis management uses coding, scoring, and tabulating by looking at the frequency distribution of all variables. The analysis is a univariate and bivariate analysis with a dependent T-test. The study results were average range motion of the pre-test joints of 15.53 with a standard deviation of 2,232, and the middle range of motion of the joints in the post-test was 14.67 with a standard deviation of 1,915. The difference between the average pre-test and post-test is 0.86. With the P-Value value obtained a value of 0.001, more minor than the alpha of 0.05, it can be concluded that there is a significant influence of the combination of therapies on the range of joint motion in traditional divers who experience paralysis. The results can figure that there are substantial differences before and after training for alternative nursing intervention. Keywords: MCIM, Paralysis, ROM, Traditional diver fisherman

Abstract

Positive cases of Covid-19 continue to increase in almost every country. Globally, there are approximately 113 million positive cases with 2.5 million deaths. The country with the highest number of positive patient cases is the United States, with 28 million cases. Indonesia is ranked 18th with a total of 1.3 million positive points and 35 thousand cases of death. Nurses are frontline health workers who care for Covid-19 patients. Nurses must use personal protective equipment (PPE) to carry out their duties. The use of this PPE can protect its users. The use of PPE at level 3 during the Covid-19 pandemic, as it is now for a long time, is one factor that can trigger burnout. Data states that  2,707 people from 60 countries say that health workers are experiencing burnout due to the Covid-19 pandemic, which has not gone away and has even increased. The impact of this burnout causes nurses to feel a loss of energy, a loss of enthusiasm at work, and a loss of confidence. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the use of PPE and burnout in nurses. This type of research is descriptive quantitative with a cross-sectional approach. The study used a purposive sampling technique with as many as 213 people. Data were analyzed using the Spearman rank test. The results showed that most respondents used PPE in the excellent category, namely 167 people (78.4%); most of the respondents experienced low burnout, namely 204 people (95.8%) with a p-value of 0.001 and a correlation strength of -0.228 with negative correlation direction. There is a relationship between the use of PPE and burnout, where the better PPE, the lower the burnout felt by nurses. Proper PPE can reduce nurses' burnout by making them feel safe and protected. Nurses are expected to use PPE according to standards continually; the hospital is also likely to regularly evaluate the mental health of nurses to reduce the risk of burnout.

Abstract

Juwet leaf is a plant with antioxidant properties that protect against free radicals. The simplicia ethanol extract of juwet leaves used came from the city of Palu, Central Sulawesi. Extraction of chemical content from juwet leaves (Syzygium cumini L.) was carried out by maceration method. In this study, to determine the levels of flavonoid compounds and antioxidant power in the sample extract, a compound analysis was carried out using a UV_Vis spectrophotometer. Total flavonoid content was determined from the absorbance value obtained from a wavelength of 510 nm by using Visible spectrophotometry. Antioxidant activity was obtained by measuring the reducing activity of the ethanol extract of juwet leaves on the free radical DPPH (1,1-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazil) by Visible spectrophotometry with a wavelength of 517 nm. An antioxidant activity test was carried out using quercetin as a comparison. The results showed that the ethanol extract of juwet leaves had low total flavonoid content with weak antioxidant activity compared to quercetin. Keywords: Antioxidants, Flavonoids, Juwet leaves

Abstract

Adolescence is the right time to prepare for a healthy reproductive process. Aspects that are very important for adolescents are the physical, mental, and social aspects. The role of parents is crucial in imparting knowledge to adolescents. Many teenagers are ashamed and afraid of being scolded or punished when discussing reproductive health with their parents. This research aims to examine parents' role in providing education and the reasons for not providing education about adolescent reproductive health in Malang Regency. This research method is descriptive with a cross-sectional approach. The research sample was taken through purposive sampling, obtaining 100 respondents who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data was collected through a questionnaire and processed with a frequency distribution. Research findings show that less than half of the respondents have a suitable category (35.2%) in providing information about adolescent reproductive health. This offers parents a subordinate role in educating their children about adolescent reproductive health. The subordinate role is due to the lack of parental knowledge about adolescent reproductive health (68%). Education about adolescent reproductive health needs to be given to parents so that parents have the ability and can carry out their role as providers of information about adolescent reproductive health. Keywords: Adolescent reproductive health, Information provider, The role of parents
