Purpose: Several studies have shown that oral sucrose reduces pain in newborns. However, sucrose has no efficacy in eliminating pain and long-term effects remain unclear. Breast milk may be useful as an alternative, safe sweet solution. Sensorial saturation (SS) is a multisensory analgesic non-pharmacological treatment, which includes touch and sounds as distractors. This study aimed to compare the analgesic effects of SS with sucrose (SSS), SS with breast milk (SSB), and oral sucrose alone (S24%) in neonates undergoing venipuncture. Design and methods: This was a randomized controlled trial conducted on 108 neonates who underwent venipuncture at neonatology wards. All babies were randomly assigned to one of three groups: two intervention groups and one control group. Pain response was assessed using the premature infant pain profilerevised (PIPP-R). Data analysis was conducted using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney U test. Results: SSB and SSS were more effective than S24% (p = 0.001). No difference was observed between SSB and SSS (p = 0.669). Conclusion:Multisensory stimulation is more effective in reducing pain than unimodal (oral sucrose) analgesia. Breast milk can be used as a sensory gustatory stimulus in multisensory stimulation to reduce pain intensity in neonates, and demonstrates a similar analgesic effect to sucrose. Practice implications: The study findings suggest that neonatal nurses could use SSB for management of pain. This intervention could serve as an effective, inexpensive, and safe non-pharmacological analgesic. Additional testing of this intervention is warranted to support its use as an evidence-based pain reduction approach.

Background: The issue of child nutrition is still a problem in developing countries, including Indonesia. Nowadays, there is double burden related to child nutrition, due to lack of nutrition that has not been resolved and at the same time, there is an increasing problem of excess nutrients. Parents are responsible for the care of children, including fulfilling a balanced nutritional intake.Objective: To identify the relationship between parent’s behavior in feeding and nutritional status of children aged 2-5 years.Method: Design used in this study was observational with the cross-sectional study was conducted 153 parents with children aged 2-5 years who fit the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the region of Integrated Health Center Catholic Hospital St. Vincentius a Paulo Surabaya. Parent’s behavior in feeding was assessed using the Comprehensive Feeding Practices Questionnaire (CFPQ) which consists of 49 questions and 12 behavioral aspects. The nutritional status of children assessed by weight indicator according to height (weight/height) were compared with z-score WHO 2006 standard. Data were analyzed using the Spearman correlation.Results: The average nutritional status of children aged 2-5 years based on the weight/height z-score indicator was 0.17 indicating that is in normal condition. Parent’s behavior that involves children in the planning and preparation of meals, positively associated with nutritional status of children in all conditions of nutritional status of children who are very thin to obese (ρ=0.43; p=0.001). Pressure, when children eat, was negatively associated with nutritional status of children aged 2-5 years in normal nutritional status to obese (ρ=-0.34; p=0.001). Restriction of food intake to control body weight was positively associated with nutritional status of children aged 2-5 years in all conditions of nutritional status of children who are very thin to obese (ρ=0.29; p=0.001).Conclusion: Parent’s behavior in feeding the children associated with nutritional status of children aged 2-5 years.

PurposePain assessment is a key component of good pain management in hospitalized infants. This study aimed to translate and adapt a version of pain measurement in infants, the Premature Infant Pain Profile Revised (PIPP-R) into Indonesian.MethodThe adaptation process of the measuring instrument used a modified Brislin method which included forward translation, back translation 1, group discussion 1, back translation 2, group discussion 2, and pilot testing on neonatal nurses: feasibility test, inter-rater reliability using intraclass correlation (ICC), and internal consistency using Cronbach's α coefficient.ResultsThe PIPP-R version in English has been translated into Indonesian. In general, nurses assessed this measuring instrument as feasible. The inter-rater reliability showed a high agreement (ICC = 0.968, P = 0.001) and this measuring instrument had good internal consistency (Cronbach's α = 0.856).ConclusionThe Indonesian version of PIPP-R is easy to use and shows good psychometric properties. The use of this measuring instrument will help nurses and researchers obtain accurate infant pain intensity measurement values.

Background: Fever is manifestation of acute disease on children and contributes to incidence of severe malnutrition and morbidity and the most common reason for parents to deliver children on hospital. Currently, parents still lack knowledge of determination and proper management of fever although intervention of health education has been widely practiced. One obstacle to widespread success of educational intervention is inadequacy of health literacy. Utilization of media with simple and completed information with picture can be developed in communities with low levels of health literacy.Objective: To understanding the effect of health education using video and brochure on maternal health literacy in the working area of Saptosari Public Health Center, Gunungkidul Yogyakarta, Indonesia.Methods: This was a quasi experimental study with pretest and posttest nonequivalent control group design conducted on 15 – 27 May 2017. The questionnaire used was HLS-Asia Q which had been modified. Health education intervention was done using five minute-duration video about fever management in children preceeded by discussion about the content of the video. Cluster sampling technique was applied with mothers who have under five children as the respondent involving 45 respondents for intervention group and 42 respondents in control group. Data analysis used independent sample t-test.Results: There was an increase in average maternal health literacy provided with video and brochure media compared to the maternal health literacy given with standard treatment. Intervention group mean difference value was 6.6444 ± 9.6086 and value of difference of control group mean equals to  -2.4762 ± 12.0674  (p value <0.001).Conclusion: Health education intervention using video has a higher impact in the development of maternal health literacy compared with the standard intervention using brochure.
