(1) Background: The importance of physician-patient communication and its effect on patient satisfaction has become a hot topic and has been studied from various aspects in recent years. However, there is a lack of systematic reviews to integrate recent research findings into patient satisfaction studies with physician communication. Therefore, this study aims to systematically examine physician communication’s effect on patient satisfaction in public hospitals. (2) Methods: Using a keywords search, data was collected from five databases for the papers published until October 2021. Original studies, observational studies, intervention studies, cross-sectional studies, cohort studies, experimental studies, and qualitative studies published in English, peer-reviewed research, and inpatients who communicated with the physician in a hospital met the inclusion criteria. (3) Results: Overall, 11 studies met the inclusion criteria from the 4810 articles found in the database. Physicians and organizations can influence two determinants of inpatient satisfaction in physician communication. Determinants of patient satisfaction that physicians influence consist of amounts of time spent with the patient, verbal and nonverbal indirect interpersonal communication, and understanding the demands of patients. The organization can improve patient satisfaction with physician communication by the organization’s availability of interpreter service and physician workload. Physicians’ communication with inpatients can affect patient satisfaction with hospital services. (4) Conclusions: To improve patient satisfaction with physician communication, physicians and organizational determinants must be considered.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are built on the successes of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which consists of 17 goals as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity. The assessment of people's awareness and knowledge on SDGs is of paramount importance to support any subsequent actions. The awareness of SDGs is higher compared to the previous agenda MDGs only in particular emerging countries; hence, it requires better progress after more than three years of its establishment. University students, as the agent of changes, are supposed to have a higher level of awareness and knowledge rather than average. When the university students have a better awareness and higher knowledge on SDGs, they can actively contribute to support, promote, and achieve the development goals by making use of their academic background. The objective of this research is to assess the level of awareness and knowledge on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) among university students in Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Data for this research are collected by field Survey and Questionnaire. This research analyzes data by using descriptive statistics and Chi-Square. The results show 89.5% of students are aware and 62.5% of students have high knowledge about SDGs. We found that students' knowledge is only affected by the accessibility of information and students' awareness is related to not only accessibility of information but also gender. Both awareness and knowledge are not affected by students' participation in the organization.
The competence of Posyandu (Integrated Service Post) cadres played a crucial role in response to the pandemic. They were responsible for raising awareness about COVID-19 and implementing preventive measures. The impact of their competence cannot be overstated and highlights the importance of investing in health worker training. This study aims to determine the factors related to the competence of Integrated Health Service Post cadres during the pandemic in the Samarinda Primary Healthcare working area. Observational research was employed with stratified random sampling, and primary data was collected from five Primary Healthcare in Samarinda. This study employed three steps to examine the effect of competency cadres: univariate analysis, bivariate analysis using the Spearman Rank test, and multivariate analysis with Multiple Linear Regression. The bivariate analysis results showed that supervision had a very strong correlation with the cadres’ competency, and social environment had a strong correlation with the cadres’ competency. At the same time, the organization had a moderate correlation with cadres’ competency. The multivariate test results showed that the social environment contributed 0.165 times to the competence of cadres, organizational support contributed 0.211 times in cadre competence, and supervision support contributed 0.652 times to cadre competence. It provides them with the necessary resources, training, and recognition for their work.
In this study, we explore comparing mothers’ knowledge of health education conducted through web-based audio-visual media between the intervention group and the control group who only read books on maternal and child health. This study employed criteria for the respondents: mothers who have toddlers, both in the control and treatment groups. The respondents were asked to fill out a questionnaire ( post-test). Meanwhile, for the control group, after the pre-test, the respondents read a book on maternal and child health for 10 minutes, then continued filling out the questionnaire (post-test). Health education through web applications is more effective with statistical values, 60 for pre-test scores and 80 for post-test scores (p = 0.000), while the score of education which is only by reading books from the control group, shows the same score for both pre and post-test score, 70 (p = 0.960). Health education through web-based applications consisting of videos about the growth and development of toddlers and stunting can increase mother’s knowledge about monitoring the growth and development of toddlers and is expected to prevent stunting
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.
