“…Results from both study groups show that, in comparison to earlier donation techniques, the App provides a more efficient way for users to give blood and may shorten the time between the need for blood and blood donation-a conclusion that is consistent with earlier studies [12].…”

Background: Blood donation rates in Saudi Arabia are relatively low compared to other countries. Understanding the patterns and characteristics of blood donors is crucial for improving donation rates and ensuring a sustainable blood supply. This Study utilizes data from the Wateen App to examine blood donation patterns in Saudi Arabia.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using data from individuals who registered on the Wateen App. The Study analyzed demographic information, donation frequency, blood group distribution, regional variations, temporal trends, and user satisfaction with the App. Statistical analyses were performed to identify significant findings.Results: The Study found that the majority of registered donors were male, with a higher proportion in the 25-35 age group. Most donors had donated once, while a small percentage had multiple donations. O+ blood group donors constituted the most significant proportion, followed by A+ and B+. The Eastern province had the highest incidence of registered donors. Over the years, there has been a gradual increase in the number of donors. There was no significant correlation between donation numbers and different months, seasons, or Ramadan.Conclusion: This Study provides insights into blood donation patterns in Saudi Arabia. Efforts should be made to address gender disparities, engage a wider age range of donors, promote donations among individuals with less common blood types, and improve donation infrastructure in regions with lower donation rates. The Wateen App has shown positive outcomes in enhancing donor engagement. Further research and collaborative efforts are necessary to improve the blood donation system in Saudi Arabia.

Background Falls, particularly common among the elderly, pose significant health risks and mortality rates worldwide. Factors such as decline related to old age, gender, medical conditions, and environmental hazards contribute to falls. Prevention strategies focus on environmental modifications, exercise programs, medication reviews, and vitamin D supplementation to reduce fall risks and improve outcomes. This study aims to investigate the awareness of fall risk and measures of fall prevention among older adults in Buraidah, Qassim, Saudi Arabia, and examines the relationship between the level of awareness and various sociodemographic factors. Methodology This cross-sectional study was conducted among elderly patients at primary healthcare centers in Buraidah, Qassim province, Saudi Arabia. Data were collected via an interviewer-administered questionnaire assessing awareness and prevention of falls. Data were cleaned in Excel (Microsoft Corp., Redmond, WA, USA) and analyzed using SPSS version 29 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). A linear regression model was used to determine the association. Statistical significance was established at a p-value of 0.05 or lower. Results Our study included 280 elderly participants, of whom 58.2% were female. The mean age was 63.7 years (SD = 4.9), and 34.6% had a bachelor’s degree. Regarding fall awareness, 81.4% acknowledged preventability. Notable preventive measures included medication reviews (64.6%), eye examinations (85.7%), physical activity (82.2%), vitamin D supplementation (76.8%), and home safety devices (97.5%). Regarding fall prevention, 61.8% underwent medical examinations annually, and 65.4% had vision checkups. Higher awareness about fall risks was associated with female gender (β = 1.394, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.199 to 2.589, p = 0.022), higher education (β = 0.931, 95% CI = 0.549 to 1.314, p < 0.001), and chronic diseases (β = -1.935, 95% CI = -3.313 to -0.556, p = 0.006). Conclusions Our study demonstrates significant awareness among elderly participants regarding fall preventability and measures. Females and those with higher education levels had higher levels of awareness. These findings highlight the importance of targeted interventions to increase awareness and preventive measures among elderly populations.

In the last few decades, architecture has tended to be apathetic since aesthetics and function have been given more attention which has put the context of life aside. Architecture and empathy must go hand in hand so architects need to understand the spaces they design from the perspective of their users. Sleep disorders are problems in the quality and quantity of sleep that can cause stress and daytime sleepiness. Sleep disorders have a reciprocal relationship with mental health where sleep disorders can cause or be caused by mental illness. Since sleep disorder is a common thing in Indonesia, it leads to the normalization of sleep disorders which can cause a long-term negative impact on mental and physical health, lifestyle, work performance, social and economy. This design aims to provide a space that can increase awareness of sleep disorders as well as special therapy programs for sleep disorders through healing architecture. The benefit of this design is to provide a healing space for people with sleep disorders that focuses on the reception of the human senses on spatial quality. The design method used in this design is the everyday architectural method. The results of this design are interactive sleep gallery program, sleep-related research program, and special therapy programs for sleep disorders. Therapeutic programs are implemented so that people with sleep disorders can recover from sleep disorders in the long term by improving healthy lifestyle and creating good daily habits. Keywords: architecture; empathy; healing; mental; sleep Abstrak Beberapa dekade terakhir, arsitektur cenderung bersifat apatis karena estetika dan fungsi lebih diperhatikan yang membuat konteks kehidupan dikesampingkan. Arsitektur dan empati harus berjalan beriringan sehingga arsitek perlu memahami ruang yang mereka rancang dari perspektif penggunanya. Gangguan tidur adalah masalah dalam kualitas dan kuantitas tidur yang dapat menyebabkan stres dan kantuk di siang. Gangguan tidur memiliki hubungan timbal balik dengan kesehatan mental dimana gangguan tidur dapat menyebabkan atau disebabkan oleh penyakit mental. Umumnya gangguan tidur di Indonesia menyebabkan adanya normalisasi gangguan tidur yang dapat berdampak negatif secara jangka panjang pada kesehatan mental dan fisik, gaya hidup, performa bekerja, sosial, hingga ekonomi. Perancangan ini bertujuan untuk menyediakan ruang yang dapat meningkatkan kesadaran akan gangguan tidur serta program terapi khusus untuk gangguan tidur melalui healing architecture. Manfaat dari perancangan ini adalah untuk menyediakan ruang penyembuhan bagi penderita gangguan tidur yang berfokus pada resepsi indera manusia terhadap kualitas spasial. Metode perancangan yang digunakan dalam perancangan ini adalah metode arsitektur keseharian. Hasil dari perancancangan ini berupa program galeri tidur interaktif, program penelitian terkait tidur, serta program terapi khusus gangguan tidur. Program yang bersifat terapi diterapkan agar penderita gangguan tidur dapat memulihkan gangguan tidur secara jangka panjang dengan memperbaiki pola gaya hidup dan menciptakan kebiasaan sehari-hari yang baik.
