type: item
description: Background: Contraceptive implants are a highly effective long-term birth control method. However, many prospective users experience anxiety prior to insertion, which can hinder the acceptance and implementation process. Non-pharmacological interventions such as lavender aromatherapy have been recognized for their calming effects and potential to reduce anxiety naturally. Purpose: This study aims to examine the effect of lavender aromatherapy on anxiety levels among contraceptive implant acceptors. Method: A quasi-experimental design was employed using a pretest-posttest one group design approach. Participants were selected based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Anxiety levels were measured using a standardized questionnaire administered before and after the aromatherapy intervention. The collected data were analyzed using appropriate statistical tests to assess the significance of changes. Result: The findings revealed a significant reduction in anxiety levels following the administration of lavender aromatherapy. Statistical analysis showed a p-value of 0.000 (p<0.05), indicating a meaningful effect. The mean anxiety score decreased from 21.77 prior to the intervention to 18.90 afterward, with a mean difference of 13.87 points. Conclusion: Lavender aromatherapy is effective in reducing anxiety levels among contraceptive implant acceptors. The therapeutic aroma of lavender is believed to promote relaxation, relieve emotional tension, and enhance comfort during the implant insertion process.

type: item
description: Background: Injury remains a major cause of mortality worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that of 4.4 million injury-related deaths annually, 3.16 million are due to unintentional injuries and 1.25 million to violence. Among individuals aged 5–29 years, three of the top five causes of death are injury-related: road traffic accidents, homicide, and suicide. According to Indonesia’s 2018 Riskesdas, adolescents aged 15–24 years have the third-highest rate of injury (1.3%), with the highest proportion among those with junior high school education (1.5%). Adolescents are physically active, curious, and spend considerable time at school, increasing their risk of injury. Improper wound care can lead to infection, prolonged morbidity, and disability. Objective: This study aimed to identify factors associated with adolescents’ practice of simple wound care at Surakarta. Method: The study used an analytical cross-sectional design with 150 female adolescent respondents, and data were analyzed using logistic regression. Result: Results showed that age (p=0.000) and peer support (p=0.000) were significant factors influencing simple wound care practices, while information sources (p=0.605) and education level (p=0.299) were not. Conclusion: It can be concluded that age and peer support are dominant factors enhancing adolescents’ ability to perform proper simple wound care.

Model Health Literacy Berbasis Telehealth dalam Promosi Kesehatan Mengenai Perilaku Makan pada Pertumbuhan Remaja Cegah Stunting
type: item
description: Background: Nutrition and stunting issues in Indonesia cannot be underestimated, especially considering the health conditions of adolescents that influence stunting rates in the future. Adolescence is a crucial period in individual growth and development, where many behaviors and habits, including eating patterns, are formed. Good health literacy allows adolescents to understand health information related to nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. This shows that understanding and knowledge about balanced nutrition are crucial to reduce the risk of long-term stunting and ensure maternal and child health. The gap in knowledge and nutritional literacy among adolescents is a major challenge that needs to be addressed. A telehealth-based health literacy model is expected to improve understanding and healthy eating behavior among adolescents, as an automotive step in stunting prevention. Objective: The purpose of this study is to develop a telehealth-based Health Literacy model to improve healthy eating behavior among adolescents by focusing on strengthening their understanding of the importance of a healthy diet. Method: This study used the Research and Development method combined with a Randomized Control Trial. The sample in this study were adolescents attending high schools in Mataram City. Results: Statistical analysis showed a significant intervention effect with p<0.01. The proportion of improvement in the intervention group was more than double that in the control group. Conclusion: The Telehealth-based Health Literacy Model intervention was effective in improving adolescents' dietary knowledge and behavior.

Pendekatan Keperawatan dengan Model Telehealth dalam Manajemen Deteksi dan Intervensi Weight Faltering untuk Mengurangi Resiko Stunting
type: item
description: Background: The urgency of the research is based on the high prevalence of children with stunting in NTB, which is even ranked fourth nationally. In addition to causing growth disorders, stunting causes decreased cognitive, motoric, and work performance abilities. The early detection process is very important to prevent stunting induced by non-compliance with nutritional guidelines. The main problem in the detection and intervention of weight faltering lies in the complexity of recognizing and implementing appropriate interventions, resulting in a slow response to nutritional problems in children. The limitations of the monitoring system encourage the need for a telehealth-based nursing approach in weight faltering management. Objective: This study aims to develop a telehealth model in the management of weight faltering detection and intervention to reduce the risk of stunting. Method: This study uses the Research and Development (R&D) method, namely a systematic approach to nursing approaches through telehealth to produce website design products in Weight Faltering Detection Intervention Management. Results: The results of statistical tests show that the majority of respondents showed SUS results with an acceptable category of 77.6%. Conclusion: The website https://tumbuhkembang.id can be used as a telehealth model in the management of weight faltering detection and intervention to reduce the risk of stunting.

Hubungan antara Turnover Intention dengan Motivasi Kerja Perawat di Ruang Intensive Care RS X
type: item
description: Background: Turnover intention is the desire to leave one’s job due to high workload, stress, and low job satisfaction, which poses a risk of reducing experienced human resources and lowering work motivation. Low motivation can affect the quality of service. Objective: This study aims to determine the relationship between turnover intention and work motivation among nurses in the intensive care unit of RS X. Methods: This research uses a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample was obtained using a total sampling technique, consisting of all nurses working in the ICU, NICU, and HCCU of RS X, totaling 60 respondents. The instruments used were the turnover intention questionnaire and the work motivation questionnaire. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate methods with the Spearman correlation test. Results: The results showed a weak but statistically significant negative relationship between turnover intention and work motivation among nurses (r = -0,327; p = 0,011). This indicates that the higher the nurses' turnover intention, the lower their work motivation tends to be. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between turnover intention and nurses’ work motivation.

Hubungan Pola Pemberian Makan Orang Tua dengan Kejadian Stunting pada Balita di Puskesmas Kedungwungu
type: item
description: Background: Stunting is a complex health problem with long-term impacts, characterized by a child's height being lower than the age standard due to chronic malnutrition and repeated exposure to infections. One factor suspected to play a role is the lack of effectiveness of parents in implementing child feeding practices. Objective: This study aims to analyze and identify the relationship between parental feeding patterns and the incidence of stunting in toddlers. Method: This study applied a quantitative approach with a descriptive analytical design and involved 30 respondents, namely mothers of toddlers experiencing stunting, who were selected using a total sampling technique. The data collection tool used was the Child Feeding Questionnaire (CFQ), which was developed based on guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). Data collection was carried out by filling out the questionnaire and measuring the toddlers' height. Furthermore, the data were tested for normality and analyzed using the Spearman correlation test. Results: Based on the analysis, a correlation coefficient value of -0.015 was obtained with a significance level of 0.939 (p>0.05), which indicates that there is no significant relationship between feeding patterns and the incidence of stunting in toddlers. Thus, feeding patterns have not become the main factor in efforts to prevent stunting so that efforts to prevent stunting need to consider other factors including the quality of nutrient consumption, environmental health, and family socio-economic conditions. Conclusion: Feeding patterns cannot be said to be a factor that can have a direct impact on children's nutritional status, so efforts to prevent stunting need to consider other factors such as the quality of nutrient consumption, environmental health, and family socio-economic conditions.
