Adolescents are included in the high-risk age group. Increased free sex behavior in adolescents has an impact on sexual and reproductive health problems. This phenomenon is supported by the increasing number of sexually transmitted diseases in adolescents. Several programs and policies have been adopted to improve adolescent reproductive health through coaching and counseling. Adolescents have confidence in their peers so peer education is an alternative intervention in increasing awareness of reproductive health. This study aims to comprehensively analyze research articles that discuss the effectiveness of peer education on knowledge and attitudes about sexual behavior in adolescents. The research design uses a literature review through the journal databases PubMed, Science Direct, and EBSCO. Researchers analyzed 18 research articles based on the inclusion criteria set, namely the time of publication in the 2015-2020 range, using English, being accessible for free, and teenage respondents. The exclusion criteria consisted of married adolescent respondents and adolescent sexual violence behavior. Keywords using peer education, knowledge, attitude, sexual behavior. Data analyzed using a table containing the author, year, method, sample, and research results. The results of the analysis of research articles show that peer education is a preventive and promotive effort in increasing knowledge and attitudes about sexual behavior in adolescents. The role of peers is an important component in this health education model. This model can be integrated and modified in adolescent reproductive health services in health care facilities.
<strong>Background </strong>: The things to do to prevent from the appearance of phlebitis are the changing of the wound covering sterilized dressing, the evaluation to the appearance of phlebitis, the changing of the insertion area at every 48-72 hours, and the use of new catheterization set. The neonatus catheterization is usually placed at umbilical vein. As a result the neonatus with umbilical catheterization is easy to get phlebitis if the catheterization isn’t appropriate. <strong>Objective </strong>: To understand the difference of the effectiveness of the umbilical intravenous catheterization nursing using dry sterilized dressing and covered antiseptic sterilized dressing concerned with the appearance of phlebitis on neonatus. <strong>Method : </strong>The study was a queasy-experiment with post-test only design; used to examine the difference of effectiveness of the umbilical intravenous catheterization nursing using dry sterilized dressing and covered antiseptic sterilized dressing concerned with the appearance of phlebitis on neonatus. <strong>Result </strong>: The result showed that there was no significant differences in the use of the dry sterilized dressing nursing and the covered antiseptic sterilized one as shown by p value score as much as 0,663 >0,05 with the fact that the Low Birth-weight babies and premature ones tend to have phlebitis. <strong>Conclusion : </strong>There is no significant differences<strong> </strong>in the umbilical catheterization nursing between use of the dry sterilized dressing and the covered antiseptic sterilized one concerned with the appearance of phlebitis but there is a tendency that the low birth-weight neonatus and premature ones will have phlebitis more easily.
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.
