Introduction: The use of warm compresses and warm sponge techniques as a modality therapy for the management of fever in typhoid children has a good influence. The purpose of this research was to learn of the differences between conventional warm compress and the tepid sponge technique as related to the body temperature changes of pediatric patients with typhoid fever. A fever that does not get a good standard of treatment can cause dehydration, neurological damage and febrile seizures.Methods: The research design was quasi-experiment with two groups pre-post test. The population was taken from the Kampili Community Health Center while the 20 samples were taken using the purposive sampling technique. Conventional warm compresses were placed on the forehead, while warm tepid sponges were compressed and placed on the forehead, armpits and the folds of the thighs simultaneously.Results: . The data of the results were significance tested using the General linear model repeated measure (p value 0.03 for conventional warm compresses and p value 0.01 on a warm compress tepid sponge technique).Conclusion: Statistically, the warm compress tepid sponge technique is more meaningful and qualitatively, the temperature change is better after the compression.
AbstrakStatus gizi adalah ekspresi dari keadaan keseimbangan dalam bentuk variabel tertentu, atau perwujudan dari nutriture dalam bentuk variabel tertentu. Anak yang kekurangan gizi pada usia balita akan tumbuh pendek, dan mengalami gangguan pertumbuhan dan perkembangan fisik, mental dan jaringan otak yang dapat memengaruhi tingkat kecerdasan otak. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis faktor risiko kejadian gizi kurang pada balita di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Pasarwajo Kecamatan Pasarwajo Kabupaten Buton tahun 2020. Instrumen yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah data sekunder pengukuran BB/U dan kuesioner. Sampel dalam penelitian ini adalah balita berusia 12-59 bulan yang berjumlah 146 sampel kasus dan kontrol dengan perbandingan 1:1. Analisis data menggunakan uji chi square dengan tingkat kemaknaan sig p0,05. Nilai p-value dan OR untuk masing-masing variabel didapatkan tingkat pendidikan ibu p=0,000 dan OR= 2,659, riwayat penyakit infeksi p=0,000 dan OR=9,488, riwayat pemberian ASI eksklusif p=0,000 dan OR=7,083, pendapatan orangtua p=0,000 dan OR=8,449, dan jumlah anak p=0,090 dan OR=1,736. Kata Kunci : faktor risiko, gizi kurang, balita
ASI adalah makanan untuk seorang bayi yang bisa dikatakan sempurna karena selain higienisnya akibat langsung bersumber dari payudara ibu, juga praktis dan dalam 6 bulan pertamanya, bayi sangat memerlukan pemenuhan gizi yang baik dan di dalam ASI, semua cairan yang diperlukan bayi dan zat gizi sudah terkandung di dalammya. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan pengetahuan, dukungan sosial, dan ketersediaan fasilitas terhadap pemberian ASI eksklusif di Puskesmas Bonto Perak Kabupaten Pangkep. Instrumen penelitian yang digunakan adalah kuesioner. Sampel yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini terdiri dari 58 orang ibu yang mempunyai bayi berusia 0-12 bulan di Puskesmas Bonto Perak Kabupaten Pangkep. Data diolah dan dianalisa sesuai yang diperlukan dan analisis data menggunakan uji Chi Square p<0,05. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara tingkat pengetahuan dengan pemberian ASI ekslusif (0.000), terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara dukungan dengan pemberian ASI ekslusif (0.000), dan terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara ketersediaan fasilitas dengan pemberian ASI ekslusif (0.000).
Introduction: Anemia is one of the problems in pregnant women that can affect anthropometry of newborns that contain weight, body length and head circumference as well as the newborn score. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between anemia of pregnant women to anthropometry and the apgar score of newborns at Dr. Tadjuddin Chalid Hospital Makassar.
Methods: The method used in this research is observational analytic with cross sectional design. Sampling was done by purposive sampling. The total sample of 269 deliveries at Dr. Tadjuddin Chalid Hospital Makassar. The research data were sourced from secondary data such as patient identity, anemia of pregnant women, infant anthropometry which included weight, length, head circumference, and apgar score measured immediately after birth.
Results: The results of this study indicate that anemia of pregnant women are significantly related to newborn body weight (p = 0.007), newborn body length (p = 0.011), newborn head circumference (p = 0.039), and anemia of pregnant women does not have a significant relationship with the apgar of newborns score (p = 0.088).
Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that anemia status of pregnant women has a relationship with anthropometry of newborns on the parameters of body weight, body length, head circumference of newborns and anemia status of pregnant women has no relationship with the apgar score of newborns.
