Background: Nursing students are the future care providers for the aged population. Thus, they need to be prepared for quality care delivery during their study period at universities or colleges. Objectives: This study aims to determine undergraduate nursing students’ knowledge of ageing, attitudes towards older people and willingness to work with older people. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 141 undergraduate nursing students in a public university in Malaysia. Knowledge of ageing, attitudes towards older people and willingness to work with older people were assessed using standardised tools, namely the Palmore Facts on Aging Quiz, Kogan's Attitudes towards Older People Scale and Nolan's Intent to Work with Older People Questionnaire, respectively. Results: The results showed that 83.7% and 85.8% of the participants had high knowledge of ageing and willingness to work with older people, respectively. Meanwhile, 90.1% of the participants had a negative attitude towards older people. The attitude towards older people and knowledge of ageing were significantly associated with willingness to work with older people. Knowledge of ageing has no significant association with the attitude towards older people. Similarly, there was no significant association between demographic characteristics and knowledge of ageing, attitudes towards older adults and willingness to work with older people. Conclusion: Gerontological nursing education should emphasise clinical experience with older people, specifically in geriatric wards or nursing homes, to create a more positive attitudes towards older adults.

Cerebrovascular injury (CVA) is an abnormal functioning of the central nervous system (CNS) caused by disruption of normal blood flow to the brain. Stroke is divided into two, namely ischemic (85%) and bleeding (15%), the top 3 causes of death in recent years. Stroke has an impact on the socio-economy due to the disability it causes. In 2015, the medical records of Pariaman Hospital, the number of stroke patients treated in the neurological ward was 103 people, in 2016 it increased by 117 people, in 2017 it increased very significantly, as many as 215 people. The purpose of this study is how the effect of Range of Motion and deep breathing exercise (DBE) in increasing muscle strength of post-stroke patients who are treated at Pariaman Hospital. The research design was a quasi-experimental design with a one-group before and intervention design. The population of this study were post-stroke patients who were treated at RSUD Pariaman. Sampling was purposive sampling, amounting to 40 respondents. The data were processed and analyzed univariate and bivariate. The results showed that there was a difference in the mean value of muscle strength before the therapy was 2.75 with a standard deviation of 0.439 and after the therapy was 3.50 with a standard deviation of 0.506. The results of statistical tests show that the value of p = 0.000 means that there is a significant difference between the mean value of muscle strength in patients before the procedure and after ROM and DBE therapy.

Abdominal surgeries are defined as procedures carried out by surgeons for the children's abdominal regions for treating a medical condition. Pediatric surgical problems are a broad spectrum of surgical condition that occurs in children. Sometimes, it is considered a proper option of pediatric management to save children's lives and prevent and decrease disabilities and death. Aim: evaluate the effect of the acupressure technique on gastrointestinal problems and pain control for children post-abdominal surgeries. Methods: the study was a quasi-experimental research design and used for 80 children from the Tanta Main University Hospital's pediatric surgical department. Tools: were used to collect data: A structured Interview Schedule to assess the socio-demographic characteristic and medical history of children, a Rhodes index of nausea and vomiting form to assess nausea and vomiting, and a visual analog scale to assess nausea, vomiting and pain. Results: The current study found statistically significant differences in the occurrence of postoperative nausea, vomiting, and pain on the first- and second-days following implementation. Conclusion: There are a significant improvement in the children's nausea, vomiting, and pain after abdominal surgeries. Recommendations: Acupressure should be utilized as a collaborative nursing intervention method to minimize post-operative gastrointestinal side effects (nausea and vomiting) in pediatric surgery patients.

HIV and AIDS are worldwide health concerns. Opportunistic infections are brought on by a weakened immune system and the introduction of germs (bacteria, fungi, and viruses) into the body. Opportunistic Infections (OIs) can cause death in >90% of AIDS patients. The objective of this research is to identify perception factors associated with a positive attitude toward preventing opportunistic infections in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). This research was an analytical study applying a cross-sectional design and quantitative approaches. This study included 30 samples from PLWHA from the General Hospital of South Tangerang City, Indonesia. Samples were collected using a non-random sampling technique involving accidental sampling. From the results of the study, a relationship of perceived threat (p-value = 0.001; r = 0.515), perceived susceptibility (p-value = 0.044; r = 0.345), perceived severity (p-value = 0.361), perceived benefit (p-value = 0.643), perceived barrier (p-value = 0.094; r = 0.463), and perceived self-efficacy (p-value = 0,004; r = 0.463) was obtained with the prevention attitude of opportunistic infections. The perceived threat is a major factor influencing attitudes toward OI prevention.

Background: Stunting is a condition of growth failure in children (body and brain growth) due to malnutrition for a long time. Thus, children are shorter than normal children of their age and have delayed thinking ability. Stunting remains a major public health problem in low and middle-income countries, including Indonesia. Stunting or shortness problems in toddlers show an average of 23.4%, with the lowest stunting prevalence area in South Tangerang City. Aim: This study was to determine factors affecting community knowledge regarding stunting in the South Tangerang. Methods: This research is observational and analytical study with a cross-sectional design. The statistical analysis was using the Slovin formula, with a total of 213 people. The research subject must be at least 15 years of age, literate, own a smartphone, and is willing to participate in this survey. Results: Analysis shows that the relationship between knowledge about stunting and age has a p value of 0.020; the p value for education is 1.000; the p value for marriage is 0.746; the p value for information exposure in stunting is 1.000; and the p value for media information is 1.000. Conclusion: Age has a significant association with knowledge about stunting. Education, marriage, exposure to information about stunting, and media information are not predisposing factors related to knowledge about stunting. Recommendation: Education about stunting can start at an early age and last until old age. Education can be provided through counselling in schools or even by setting up a special nutritional preparation course to prevent stunting in adolescents, pregnant women, and even the elderly.
