Menstruation is one factor that can reduce hemoglobin levels in young women. Hemoglobin is a protein in the form of an iron-rich oxygen-carrying pigment. Pharmacological therapy that can increase hemoglobin levels include the consumption of honey. This study aims to determine the effect of honey consumption on changes in hemoglobin levels during menstruation in adolescent girls at Ma'had Aly Pondok Boarding School Salafiyah Syafi'iyah Sukorejo Situbondo Year 2017 This research design using pre-experiment design. A sample of 15 respondents who confirm the inclusion criteria. Sampling technique is by proportional stratified random sampling . From the 15 respondents , all of them in the given consumption of honey . The data obtained were processed with SPSS 16 software. The Analysis of the data used is the Wilcoxon signed rank test trials . The results showed that the effect of honey on changes in Haemoglobin levels during menstruation in adolescent girls, performed by statistical test using Wilcoxon test with the help of SPSS for 16.0 windows obtained result p = 0,001 <α = 0,05. Thus Ho is rejected and H1 accepted which means there is influence of giving honey to changes of hemoglobin level during menstruation in adolescent daughter. Honey is able to increase hemoglobin levels because the iron content contained in honey is very effective in raising the levels of hemoglobin in the blood, especially during menstruation. Therefore, it is expected that honey still needs to be continued so that the risk of anemia in adolescent menstruation can be minimized
Stroke is a medical emergency. Post-stroke patients generally experience muscle weakness in the limbs, postural disturbances and muscle atrophy. The purpose of this study was to prove the effect of ROM Spherical Grip exercise on post-stroke patients. The type of the study was pre-experimental with one group pre-test-post-test design. The independent variable was Range Of Motion (ROM) Spherical Grip. The dependent variable was the degree of upper extremity muscle strength in post-stroke infarct patients who had hemiparesi. The sampling technique used a consecutive sampling technique. The sample was 33 respondents. The data were taken by measuring the muscle strength before and after being given the intervention. The instrument used an observation sheet for assessing muscle strength and manual muscle testing (MMT) physical examinations in post-stroke patients. The results of this study showed that most of the muscle strength before giving the Spherical Grip ROM exercise was Poor (there was movement but could not fight gravity) as many as 14 respondents (42.4%). After the intervention of the Spherical Grip ROM exercise, the muscle strength was mostly Fair (can move against gravity) as many as 19 respondents (57.6%). There is an increase in upper extremity muscle strength before and after being given ROM Spherical Grip exercise in post-stroke patients who experience hemiparesis. This showed that the Spherical Grip could improve the tone of those who experience weakness and if done continuously could increase muscle strength in post-stroke patients. It is hoped that with this research Spherical grip exercises can be used as one of the treatments for stroke patients who experience decreased upper extremity muscle strength and collaborate with physiotherapy also assisted by taking drugs according to doctor's advice.
Introduction: During this covid-19 pandemic, there are many restrictions on all routine services, including Maternal and Neonatal Health services, taking into account the prevention of transmission to pregnant women and health workers who examine them. In this situation, many pregnant women are reluctant to visit the Puskesmas or other healthcare facilities because of the mother's anxiety about being infected, especially with the new variant of covid-19. The purpose of the study was to describe the anxiety of pregnant women as a determinant of Antenatal Care (ANC) visits during the covid-19 pandemic. Methods: This research design is a descriptive correlational survey using a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional study design. Samples were taken with a total sampling of 230 respondents. The source of the data is the result of filling out the questionnaire sheet for the respondents. The questionnaire contains the identification of characteristics and an anxiety questionnaire using the Perinatal Anxiety Screening Scale (PASS). Results: ANC visits at the independent practice of obstetricians 42% and asymptomatic anxiety 75%. Health workers are expected to provide nursing services to be more intensive in providing health education and actual information about COVID-19 to pregnant women to reduce the risk of pregnancy complications due to anxiety.
The maternal mortality rate in Indonesia is still high. Hard efforts are needed so that the Sustainable Development Goals target of 70 per 100,000 live births in 2030 can be achieved. The purpose of the study was to identify aspects related to the trend issue of maternal mortality, the determinants of causes, strategic efforts and the role of family planning in reducing maternal mortality. This literature review describes sixteen peer-reviewed journals based on inclusion criteria. The results of the analysis of the literature review found that aspects of findings related to maternal mortality were as follows: trends issue maternal mortality (Maternal mortality is more common in developing countries), causative factors (Status health (nutrition, comorbidities and maternal complications), reproductive status (age, parity, gestational distance), access to health services and policies/regulations, health behavior (contraception use, socioeconomic)), strategic efforts (maternal and neonatal health management, Quality antenatal services, safe delivery and family planning) and family plans (Support system (women's status, family and community status)). The review analysis provides directions and patterns of strategic work steps, collaboration of various support systems ranging from the role of individuals, families, communities, health services and the government in ensuring maternal and child health.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
