Background: Hand hygiene is described by many health care workers as the single most important tool in preventing the spread of health care-associated infections between patients. Washing hands before and after patient contact seems like a simple solution to prevent the spread of bacteria between patients. Most hospitals have hand hygiene policies in place that guide their employees to do just that. But this policy is not always complied with. This study aimed to determine the associations of presence of sanction and motivation with hand hygiene compliance among health workers at Dr. Pirngadi Hospital, Medan. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was conducted at Dr. Pirngadi Hospital, Medan, North Sumatera. A sample of 33 health workers were selected for this study by exhaustive sampling. The dependent variable was hand hygiene compliance. The independent variables were sanction and motivation. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a mulitiple logistic regression. Results: Hand hygiene compliance was associated with the presence of sanction (OR= 3.44; 95%CI= 1.22 to 4.95; p= 0.041) and motivation (OR= 4.77; 95%CI= 2.52 to 6.30; p= 0.029).

Background: In elderly individuals, life satisfaction is a multidimensional issue that is influenced by objective and subjective characteristics, including cognitive function, emotional status, social support, physical condition, dependency, and sociodemographic variables. A healthy lifestyle can help older people maintain their functional ability and, therefore, satisfaction with life. An important aspect of health promotion is the assessment of lifestyle factors over which patients have some control. This study aimed to describe the effect of a health promotion method on satisfaction and health behavior change among the elderly living in rural areas, Yogyakarta. Subjects and Method: This was a qualitative study conducted at “Healthy House for the Elderly” (RUSELA) in Yogyakarta. Key informants were selected for this study, including the elderly and a few community members. The study theme was the effect of a health promotion method on satisfaction and health behavior change among the elderly in rural areas. The data were collected by in-depth interview and observation. Results: The health promotion model was able to satisfy the elderly living in RUSELA. It was also able to improve motivation for healthy behavior change, such as body weight reduction. Conclusion: The health promotion model is effective to improve motivation for health behavior change among the elderly in rural areas.

Background: High blood pressure is a global public health problem. High blood pressure is called the “silent killer” because it often kills without warning signs or symptoms, and many people do not realize they have it. The world’s population is ageing. Virtually every country in the world is experiencing growth in the number and proportion of older persons in their population. The incidence of hypertension is greatest among older adults. This study aimed to determine factors associated with hypertension incidence among elderly in Puskesmas Padang Bulan, Medan, North Sumatera. Subjects and Method: This was a case control study conducted at Puskesmas (community health center) Padang Bulan, Medan, North Sumatera. A sample of 124 elderly persons was selected for this study, consisting of 62 persons with hypertension and 62 persons without hypertension. The dependent variable was hypertension. The independent variables were smoking, obesity, physical activity, fat diet, family history. Blood pressure was measured by sphygmomanometer. The other data were collected by questionnaire. The data were analyzed by a multiple logistic regression. Results: Hypertension incidence increased with smoking (OR= 5.57; p= 0.007), obesity (OR= 5.30; p= 0.001), lack of physical activity (OR= 4.32; p= 0.001), high fat diet (OR= 5.21; p= 0.023), and family history (OR= 2.21; p= 0.001). Conclusion: The risk of hypertension in elderly increases with smoking, obesity, lack of physical activity, high fat diet, and family history.

Background : The performance of health care delivery depends largely upon the knowledge, skills, and motivation, of those individuals responsible for delivering health services. Motivation is a process that begins with a psychological or physio-logical need, which initiates behaviors to achieve the aimed goals. This study aimed to determine the effect of motivation on nurse performance at the hospital. Subject and Method: This was a survey conducted at Imelda General Hospital, Medan, North Sumatera. A sample of 64 nurses was selected by simple random sampling. The dependent variable was work performance. The independent variables were training and supervision. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple linier regression model. Results : Work performance was affected by motivation (b= 1.20; p= 0.044), training (b= 0.30; p= 0.140), and supervision (b= 0.42; p= 0.290). Conclusions: Work performance is affected by motivation, training, and supervision.

Background: Adolescent sexual and reproductive health (ASRH) is an important global health issue. Some of the challenges faced by adolescents across the world include early pregnancy and parenthood, difficulties accessing contraception and safe abortion, and high rates of HIV and sexually transmitted infections. However, ASRH has been overlooked historically despite the high risks that countries face for its neglect. This study aimed to examine the effects of religiosity and parental role on risky sexual behavior among adolescents. Subjects and Method: This was a case control study conducted in Madiun, East Java, from April 4 to May 14, 2018. A sample of 150 adolescents was selected for this study by fixed disease sampling. The dependent variable was risky sexual behavior. The independent variables were negative attitude, religiosity, and parental role. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple logistic regression. Results: The risk of risky sexual behavior in adolescents decreased with strong parental role (OR= 0.25; 95% CI<0.01 to 0.56; p= 0.020) and religiosity (OR= 0.12; 95% CI= 0.01 to 0.21; p= 0.002), but increased with negative attitude (OR= 28.57; 95% CI= 1.44 to 5.64; p= 0.028). Conclusion: The risk of risky sexual behavior in adolescents decrease with strong parental role and religiosity, but increases with negative attitude. Keywords: risky sexual behavior, religiosity, parental role, adolescents

Background: Major depression have been shown in earlier studies to be associated with cortisol changes in old depressed patients. A positive correlation was also demonstrated between cortisol levels and physical capacity. Previous studies suggest that physical capacity modulates the relationship between depression and cortisol levels. This study aimed to examine effect of physical activity on blood sugar and cortisol level among the elderly with depression in Semarang, Central Java. Subjects and Method: This was a non randomized controlled trial conducted at Puskesmas (Community Health Center) Srondol, Semarang, Central Java. A total of 20 elderlies aged ≥65 years with depression were allocated into 10 elderlies in the experimental group and 10 in the control group. The dependent variable was blood sugar and cortisol levels. The independent variable was physical activity. This physical activity included a slow walk 20 to 30 minutes per day for a week. The data were taken from the medical record and analyzed by independent t-test. Results: The declines in the blood sugar level and the increases in cortisol level before and after intervention between the experimental (physical activity) group and the control group were comparable and statistically non-significant. However, this finding may have been confounded by unadjusted effect of dietary intake or the physical activity was not rigorous enough to make changes both in blood sugar and cortisol levels. Conclusion: The incremental physical activity was not effective in making changes in blood sugar and cortisol among the elderly with depression. However, this may due to some confounding by the unadjusted effect of dietary intake and negligible physical activity. Keywords: blood sugar, blood cortisol, physical activity, depression, elderly.

Background: Occupational stress is one of the major health hazards of the modern workplace. Occupational stress and stressful working conditions have been linked to low productivity, absenteeism, and increased rates of accidents on and off the job. This study aimed to determine the factors associated with occupational stress among workers in the production department of a plant in Jakarta. Subjects and Method: This was a cross sectional study conducted at the production department of a plant, Jakarta. A sample of 72 workers was selected for this study. The dependent variable was occupational stress. The independent variables were noise, self-esteem, interpersonal conflict, uncertainty, job opportunity, physical burden, mental workload, and supervisor support. Occupational stress was measured by NIOSH generic job stress questionnaire. Noise was measured by sound level meter (Noise Pro Quest Model DLX). The other data was collected by questionnaire. The data were analyzed by a multiple logistic reg¬ression. Results: Occupational stress increased with low self-esteem (OR=6.43; 95% CI= 1.30 to 31.83), strong interpersonal conflict (OR= 2.03; 95% CI= 0.49 to 8.45), job uncertainty (OR= 1.30; 95% CI= 0.27 to 6.20), lack of job opportunity (OR= 6.65; 95% CI= 1.40 to 31.59), strong physical burden (OR= 9.64; 95% CI=1.96 to 47.46), high mental workload (OR= 12.82; 95% CI=2.21 to 74.32), and weak supervisor support (OR= 8.89; 95% CI= 1.7 to 42.22). Occupational stress decreased with low noise (OR=0.17; 95% CI= 0.04 to 0.77). Conclusion: Occupational stress increases with low self-esteem, strong inter-personal conflict, uncertainty, lack of job opportunity, strong physical burden, high mental workload, and weak supervisor support. It decreases with low noise. Keywords: occupational stress, risk factor, worker

The data were analyzed by a multiple logistic reg¬ression.\u0000Results: Occupational stress increased with low self-esteem (OR=6.43; 95% CI= 1.30 to 31.83), strong interpersonal conflict (OR= 2.03; 95% CI= 0.49 to 8.45), job uncertainty (OR= 1.30; 95% CI= 0.27 to 6.20), lack of job opportunity (OR= 6.65; 95% CI= 1.40 to 31.59), strong physical burden (OR= 9.64; 95% CI=1.96 to 47.46), high mental workload (OR= 12.82; 95% CI=2.21 to 74.32), and weak supervisor support (OR= 8.89; 95% CI= 1.7 to 42.22). Occupational stress decreased with low noise (OR=0.17; 95% CI= 0.04 to 0.77).\u0000Conclusion: Occupational stress increases with low self-esteem, strong inter-personal conflict, uncertainty, lack of job opportunity, strong physical burden, high mental workload, and weak supervisor support. It decreases with low noise.\u0000\u0000Keywords: occupational stress, risk factor, worker","PeriodicalId":297517,"journal":{"name":"Reaching the Unreached: Improving Population Health in the Rural and Remote Areas","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121827930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Background: Stroke affects brain function and causes personality, mood and emotional changes. There is a strong link between stroke, depression, and anxiety. One in three people experience depression at some point during the five years after their stroke. This study aimed to analyze the correlations of depression with daily life activity and quality of life among post-hemorrhagic stroke patients. Subjects and Methods: This was a cross sectional study conducted at Sultan Agung Hospital. A sample of 33 post-hemorrhagic stroke patients was selected for this study. The dependent variable was activity of daily living (ADL) and quality of life. The independent variable was depression. Depression was measured by Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Quality of life was measured by SSQol. Activity of daily living was measured by Barthel Index. The data were analyzed by Pear¬son correlation. Results: Of 33 post-hemorrhagic stroke patients, 19 (57.6%) patients were 45 to 54 years of age. As many as 2 (6.1%) patients had depression, either mild or severe. The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) score was mean= 24.4 and SD= 9.8. Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL) score was mean= 14.0 and SD 15.3. Depression was correlated with ADL (r= -0.86; p<0.001) and quality of life (r= -0.75; p<0.001). Conclusion: Depression is correlated with activity of daily living and quality of life among post-hemorrhagic stroke patients. Keywords: depression, activity of daily living, quality of life, post-hemorrhagic stroke
