Poor sleep quality among nurses is a major concern for the healthcare system. It might impair the nurses’ capacity to carry out their duties, endangering the patients’ health and safety. The objectives of this study were to identify the levels of sleep quality, mental well-being, and work performance, and the relationship between these variables and work performance. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 143 nurses from teaching hospitals. A self-administered questionnaire consisting of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale, and the Individual Work Performance Questionnaire was used to measure sleep quality, mental well-being, and work performance, respectively. The findings indicated that 77.6% of nurses had poor sleep quality, and 90.2% had poor mental well-being. A p-value of 0.05 indicated a relationship between sleep and contextual performance, whereas p>0.05 indicated no relationship between mental health and sleep quality. Age and educational attainment were related to work performance, but only gender was associated with mental health (p=0.05). In conclusion, the study outcomes emphasized the critical importance of addressing poor sleep quality and mental well-being among nurses to optimize their contextual performance. The relationship between demographic factors and professional outcomes further underscored the complexity of factors influencing the well-being and performance of nurses, requiring tailored interventions for comprehensive improvement within this area.

Pulmonary tuberculosis cases can arise due to various factors, including treatment fatigue resulting from prolonged therapy, insufficient patient knowledge about the condition, geographical distance between patients’ residences and healthcare facilities, a lack of reminders from healthcare workers regarding medication adherence, and the perception that treatment provided at community health centers may be inadequate. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of digital smart applications in enhancing medication adherence among pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Utilizing a trial survey approach, the research focused on patients seeking treatment at the Surabaya Community Health Center. Smart digital applications were employed to monitor medication adherence, with patients inputting their data via cell phones. The study recorded data over one month and found that while some patients struggled to operationalize the smart digital application, many were able to utilize it effectively. Overall, the findings suggest that smart digital applications can be valuable tools for monitoring medication adherence among pulmonary tuberculosis patients, particularly for older adults.

One of the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations is to bring the global maternal mortality ratio down to less than 70 per 100,000 live births by 2030. Therefore, pinpointing the factors that influence maternal near-misses would help expedite the accomplishment of this goal. Studies on these topics are, nevertheless, scarce in the Hadiya zone and throughout Ethiopia as a whole. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the factors that contribute to maternal near-misses among women who are admitted to public hospital maternity wards in the Hadiya zone in central Ethiopia. A facility-based, unmatched case-control study was conducted from February 17 to August 16, 2019. The study covered all secondary and tertiary public healthcare facilities in the Hadiya zone, which includes three district hospitals and one referral hospital offering comprehensive emergency obstetric care services. The study included 279 women in total (70 cases and 209 controls). Mothers who had had a near-miss were the cases, and mothers who had not had one were the controls. The Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 24 was used to analyze the data, and the multivariable binary logistic regression model was used to control confounders. The odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used to determine statistical significance at a p-value of less than 0.05. Living in a rural area [adjusted OR (AOR)=3.16; 95% CI: 1.62, 6.16], no birth preparedness (AOR=3.50; 95% CI: 1.66, 7.41), ever gave birth by cesarean section (AOR=3.68; 95% CI: 1.63, 8.31), previous history of hypertension (AOR=3.69; 95% CI:1.52, 8.96), and poor knowledge of pregnancy danger signs (AOR=3.15; 95% CI: 1.32, 7.52) were all determinants of maternal near-miss. Thus, strengthened public health and clinical interventions in these arenas need to prioritize rural women and women with a previous history of hypertension.

This study examines the effects of the Strengthening Partnership, Results, and Innovations in Nutrition Globally (SPRING) project on malnutrition, stunting, acute malnutrition, and underweight among children under the age of five. We employed the Difference-in-Difference (DID) estimation approach to analyze the project's impact. The project was implemented in the northern and upper-East regions of Ghana in 2014 and ended in December 2017. Our analysis showed a strong positive association between the project's effect on the probability of stunting and underweight by 11% (p=0.01) and 9% (p=0.003), respectively, in the treated regions compared with the untreated regions. However, we found no evidence of the project’s effect on acute malnutrition. We also provide suggestive evidence that the project may have influenced child nutrition status through antenatal care attendance. This study demonstrated that tackling child nutrition deficiencies through an integrated holistic approach, such as early Antenatal Care (ANC) attendance, increased access to high-quality foods, improving women's nutrition knowledge, and improving agricultural practices, can significantly reduce childhood stunting and acute malnutrition.

Older adults are a group vulnerable to health problems, and cases continue to increase. One of the reasons is living in a nursing home. So far, efforts have been made to improve older adults’ care services for their Quality of Life (QoL). However, one thing that is forgotten is spiritual services for older adults. This research aims to find relevant aspects between care and spiritual services to improve the QoL for older adult people living in nursing homes. This was a cross-sectional study. The sample size was 131 older adult people living in nursing homes. Samples were taken through simple random sampling with the criteria of being able to communicate and having a good cognitive function. Care services were measured using the Services Assessment Scale (SVAS) questionnaire, spiritual services were measured using the Spiritual Assessment Scale (SAS) questionnaire, and QoL was measured using the World Health Organization Quality of Life Older (WHOQOL-OLD) questionnaire. Data analysis used the gamma test. Respondents in this study were mostly women (55.5%), aged 60-74 years (62.6%), who had an elementary school graduation education (56.5%). Most respondents received low care services (74.0%), low spiritual services (84.0%), and most of them had low QoL (82.4%). The results showed a significant correlation between care services and QoL (p=0.000 and r=0.623), and between spiritual services and QoL (p=0.000 and r=0.755). Older adults in nursing homes need spiritual services and care services to improve their QoL.

Documentation of nursing care is authentic proof of nursing service activities, serving as the basis for fulfilling nurses' responsibilities and accountabilities. Family nursing documentation holds distinct characteristics compared to other nursing practice settings. The Indonesian nursing professional organization has established three standards for nursing care: diagnosis, intervention, and outcome. This research aimed to understand how the implementation of family nursing care documentation is conducted by community nurses in Tarakan City. The research was a correlational study with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of all the nurses working in Community Health Centers in Tarakan City, totaling 80 individuals. The sample was selected using total sampling. The research variables included demographic factors, nurses' knowledge about the documentation concept, and the application of family nursing documentation; these were measured using a modified researcher-made questionnaire and declared valid and reliable. The analysis of research data used descriptive analysis and the Spearman Rank correlation test. This research identified that the majority of community nurses in Tarakan City did not implement family nursing documentation, and the level of knowledge regarding nursing documentation concepts was low. The Spearman's rank correlation test yielded a p-value of 0.874, indicating no significant correlation between the level of knowledge and the implementation of family nursing documentation. The inhibiting factors for the implementation of family nursing care documentation primarily included a high workload, a limited number of health center nurses, motivation, and the lack of clear and uniform documentation guidelines.

Psychospiritual care has taken many forms and approaches. In the clinical setting, the meaning, variations, and inconsistencies in the delivery of psychospiritual and its related terms persist. The purpose of the study is to identify the meaning and attributes of psychospiritual care and enhance collaborative practice by presenting a concept analysis. This review used Walker and Avant's eight-step approach to concept analysis. Psychospiritual is a broad, dynamic, and unique concept that integrates psychological and spiritual methods. In this analysis, the defining attributes of psychospiritual care are intuitive self-awareness, therapeutic use of psychological and spiritual perspective, and cultivation of psychological and spiritual environment. Providing psychospiritual care promotes positive consequences, such as therapeutic effects for patients and promoting psychospiritual awareness among psychospiritual interventionists. A comprehensive definition of psychospiritual care has been developed. The findings contribute to science by creating a platform for developing practice standards, research, and theory. Implementing psychospiritual care may improve overall occupational health and well-being, thereby improving patient care delivery.

Nationally, the prevalence of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) has increased by 0.5%. In 2013, it was approximately 1.5%, rising to 2.0% in 2018. On the other hand, it is known that administering walnut extract can reduce blood sugar levels in diabetic patients. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of walnut consumption on blood sugar levels. The research was conducted experimentally, using a pre-post test control group design. The research sample consisted of mothers with fasting blood sugar levels ≥200 mg/dL and total cholesterol levels ≥200 mg/dL (hyperglycemic and hyperlipidemic). The total sample size was 50 mothers, divided into 2 groups. Samples were selected using simple random sampling. The intervention involved giving 50 grams of walnut (Canarium Indicum L.) daily for 8 weeks to the treatment group. The research was conducted in the working area of the Paccerakang Community Health Center in Makassar City, Indonesia. Statistical analysis was performed using paired T-tests. There was a decrease in fasting blood glucose levels in the treatment group from 244.12 mg/dL to 195.52 mg/dL. In the control group, there was a slight decrease in blood sugar levels from 236.92 mg/dL to 229.96 mg/dL. Paired T-test analysis in the treatment group showed a value of p=0.00, indicating a significant difference in cholesterol levels before and after the intervention in the treatment group. In the control group, the value was p=0.07, indicating no significant difference in cholesterol levels in the control group. Administering 50 grams of walnuts per day for 8 weeks significantly lowered fasting blood sugar levels in hyperlipidemic and hyperglycemic mothers.

In 2013, it was approximately 1.5%, rising to 2.0% in 2018. On the other hand, it is known that administering walnut extract can reduce blood sugar levels in diabetic patients. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of walnut consumption on blood sugar levels. The research was conducted experimentally, using a pre-post test control group design. The research sample consisted of mothers with fasting blood sugar levels ≥200 mg/dL and total cholesterol levels ≥200 mg/dL (hyperglycemic and hyperlipidemic). The total sample size was 50 mothers, divided into 2 groups. Samples were selected using simple random sampling. The intervention involved giving 50 grams of walnut (Canarium Indicum L.) daily for 8 weeks to the treatment group. The research was conducted in the working area of the Paccerakang Community Health Center in Makassar City, Indonesia. Statistical analysis was performed using paired T-tests. There was a decrease in fasting blood glucose levels in the treatment group from 244.12 mg/dL to 195.52 mg/dL.

The COVID-19 pandemic has become a multidimensional disaster, affecting various countries, including Indonesia. Adaptation is crucial in addressing the physical and mental health challenges within communities, which includes the adaptation of pregnant women who are preparing for childbirth amidst the pandemic with the aim of reducing maternal mortality rates in Indonesia. This research aimed to assess the impact of self-hypnosis on the anxiety levels and self-efficacy of pregnant women preparing for childbirth during COVID-19. The study utilized a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test measures. It involved 30 respondents in both the control and intervention groups, who were selected through consecutive sampling. Anxiety levels were measured using the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS), while self-efficacy was assessed with the New General Self-Efficacy Scale. Data analysis employed paired t-tests and independent t-tests, with the significance level set at p<0.05. The results indicated a significant difference in anxiety levels and self-efficacy between the control and intervention groups, with a p-value of 0.000. Regular self-hypnosis practice positively influenced both anxiety levels and self-efficacy among pregnant women preparing for childbirth during the COVID-19 pandemic.
COVID-19 大流行已成为一场多层面的灾难,影响到包括印度尼西亚在内的多个国家。在应对社区内的身心健康挑战时,适应至关重要,其中包括在大流行中准备分娩的孕妇的适应,目的是降低印度尼西亚的孕产妇死亡率。本研究旨在评估自我催眠对 COVID-19 期间准备分娩的孕妇的焦虑水平和自我效能的影响。该研究采用了准实验设计,并进行了前测和后测。对照组和干预组的 30 名受访者都是通过连续抽样选出的。焦虑水平采用抑郁、焦虑和压力量表(DASS)进行测量,自我效能感则采用新通用自我效能感量表进行评估。数据分析采用配对 t 检验和独立 t 检验,显著性水平为 p<0.05。结果显示,对照组和干预组在焦虑水平和自我效能感方面存在显著差异,P 值为 0.000。在 COVID-19 大流行期间,定期练习自我催眠对准备分娩的孕妇的焦虑水平和自我效能感均有积极影响。
