The Effect of Back Massage on Labor Pain in the Active Phase of the First Stage of Labor: A Case Study
type: item
description: Background: Labor pain is one of the physiological experiences encountered by nearly all women in labor, resulting from uterine contractions and cervical dilation. Poorly managed pain can increase anxiety and fatigue, as well as affect the progress of labor. One non-pharmacological method that can be used to reduce labor pain is back massage, which works through nerve stimulation and improved maternal relaxation. Objective: This case study aims to determine the effectiveness of back massage as a strategy for managing labor pain in women during the active phase of the first stage of labor. Methods: This research uses a descriptive method with a case study approach involving one woman in labor during the active phase of the first stage. Pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) before and after the back massage intervention. The intervention was performed for 20 minutes on the lumbar and sacral regions using stroking and gentle pressure techniques in accordance with standard procedures. Results: The study results showed a reduction in pain intensity following the administration of back massage. The pain score, which initially stood at 8 (severe pain), decreased to 5 (moderate pain). Additionally, the mother appeared more relaxed, was able to control her breathing better, and felt more comfortable throughout the labor process. Conclusion: Back massage is effective in helping reduce the intensity of labor pain in women during the active phase of the first stage of labor. This intervention can be used as a safe, simple, and easy-to-apply non-pharmacological method in midwifery practice to improve maternal comfort during labor.

"Nandur Kabecikan, Ngundhuh Kawibawan”: A Conceptual Review of School Children's Self-Confidence in The Perspective of Javanese Cosmology and Transcultural Nursing
type: item
description: Background: School children's self-confidence is commonly measured using indicators of assertiveness and verbal initiative derived from individualistic psychology. However, in Javanese culture, self-confidence is expressed through social harmony, proper manners, and self-control, which are often misunderstood as low self-esteem. The philosophy of nandur kabecikan, ngundhuh kawibawan (planting goodness, harvesting dignity) provides an alternative perspective that views self-confidence as a result of cultivating goodness that eventually leads to dignity and social recognition. Objective: This literature review aimed to synthesize empirical evidence regarding the construction of school children's self-confidence within Javanese cosmology and identify its implications for transcultural mental health nursing. Methods: A literature review was conducted on empirical articles published between 2014 and 2024. Literature searches were performed through Google Scholar, Garuda, Neliti, DOAJ, and Scopus databases. From 46 identified articles, six relevant studies examining self-confidence, self-esteem, and psychological well-being among children and adolescents with Javanese cultural backgrounds were included. Data were analyzed using a narrative-thematic approach. Results: Three themes emerged: internal foundations through self-compassion and self-regulation; socialization processes through parenting and family affection; and cultural identity outcomes reflected in psychological well-being and self-esteem. These findings indicate that self-confidence is relational, moral, and context-dependent. Self-confidence among Javanese children develops through family-based cultivation of goodness and results in socially recognized dignity rather than self-promotion. Conclusion: Transcultural mental health nursing should incorporate culturally relevant values in assessment and intervention.

The Impact of Working Mothers on Children’s Nutritional Status and Immunization
type: item
description: Background: Indonesian culture tends to place greater responsibility for childcare on the mother. In this modern era, economic needs are increasing, forcing mothers to work to meet the demands of life. Mothers with dual roles, often known as working mothers, are those who, in addition to household responsibilities, also have responsibilities outside the home. Aim: To analyze the impact of working mothers on children's nutritional status and immunization status. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional approach with a total sample of 120 mothers whose children were treated at Kuningan Private Hospital, West Java. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Results: There is a relationship between maternal employment status and child immunization status with a p-value of 0.036 <0.05. There is no relationship between maternal employment status and child nutritional status with a p-value of 0.204 >0.05. Conclusions: Housewives pay more attention to the completeness of their children's immunizations than working mothers. A mother's education level influences her knowledge and awareness of the importance of good nutrition for her child. Mothers with higher education tend to have toddlers with better nutritional status due to their greater knowledge of balanced nutrition and proper feeding practices

Analysis Of Differences In Erythrocyte Index As An Indicator Of Early Hematological Changes In Prediabetes And Normoglycemic Individuals
type: item
description: Background: Prediabetes is a transitional state characterized by impaired glucose regulation that triggers oxidative stress and metabolic changes, potentially altering erythrocyte morphology before the onset of type 2 diabetes. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the differences in erythrocyte indices between individuals with prediabetes and normoglycemia to identify early hematological changes. Methods: A quantitative observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design was conducted using secondary medical record data from eighty subjects, equally divided into prediabetes and normoglycemia groups through consecutive sampling. Data analysis utilized independent t-tests and Mann-Whitney U tests. Results: The results demonstrated a significantly higher mean corpuscular volume in the prediabetes group compared to the normoglycemia group. Additionally, the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration was significantly lower in prediabetic individuals. However, the mean corpuscular hemoglobin showed no significant difference between the two groups. In conclusion, significant structural erythrocyte changes, specifically increased volume and decreased hemoglobin concentration, occur during the prediabetic phase. Conclusion: These findings suggest that specific erythrocyte indices could serve as potential early hematological biomarkers for detecting metabolic deterioration associated with glucose regulation disorders.

Correlation Between RPR And O Agglutinin Titers In Typhoid Fever
type: item
description: Typhoid fever remains a significant disease burden in developing countries like Indonesia. The Widal O test is commonly used for supportive diagnosis, but cross-reactivity and background antibodies limit its interpretation in endemic regions. Recently, the Red Cell Distribution Width-to-Platelet Ratio (RPR) has emerged as a novel inflammatory marker. This retrospective analytical study evaluated the correlation between RPR and Widal O titers in 32 adult patients with suspected typhoid fever. Data including RDW, platelet count, and Widal O titers were collected from medical records. RPR was calculated as RDW (%) divided by platelet count (103/?L). Spearman's rank correlation test showed a mean RPR value of 0.063 ± 0.027, with Widal O titers ranging from 1:80 to 1:320. A weak but statistically significant positive correlation was found between RPR and Widal O titers (r = 0.391, p = 0.027). In conclusion, RPR correlates positively with Widal O titers, suggesting its potential as a cost-effective supportive inflammatory marker alongside traditional serological testing in typhoid fever patients.

Effect Of Ultrafiltration Volume On Hemoglobin And Hematocrit Profiles In Chronic Kidney Disease Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis
type: item
description: Background: Chronic kidney disease is commonly associated with anemia caused by reduced erythropoietin production and impaired hematological function. Hemodialysis with ultrafiltration removes excess body fluid and may influence hemoglobin and hematocrit concentrations through changes in plasma volume. However, the relationship between ultrafiltration volume and hematological changes remains uncertain. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of ultrafiltration volume on hemoglobin and hematocrit profiles in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis. Methods: This study used an observational analytic design with a retrospective approach. Data were obtained from medical records of chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis at RST Slamet Riyadi Surakarta. A total of 30 patients were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Hemoglobin, hematocrit, and ultrafiltration volume before and after hemodialysis were analyzed using paired sample testing and Spearman correlation analysis. Results: The majority of patients were male, aged 50–59 years, and had undergone hemodialysis for 1–5 years. The average ultrafiltration volume was 2562.29 milliliters. Hemoglobin levels showed a slight decrease after hemodialysis, while hematocrit levels showed a slight increase. Statistical analysis revealed no significant differences in hemoglobin and hematocrit levels before and after hemodialysis. Ultrafiltration volume also showed no significant correlation with changes in hemoglobin and hematocrit. Conclusion: Ultrafiltration volume during a single hemodialysis session does not significantly affect hemoglobin and hematocrit changes. Hematological profiles in chronic kidney disease patients are likely influenced by multiple factors related to chronic anemia and disease progression.

Correlating Work Motivation, Job Satisfaction, and Performance Among Remote Archipelagic Nurses
type: item
description: Nurses working in remote, border, and island areas face complex geographic, infrastructure, and resource limitations that create significant professional challenges in delivering sustainable healthcare services. This study aimed to determine the correlation between work motivation, job satisfaction, and performance among nurses in public health centers in Sangihe Islands Regency. A quantitative cross-sectional design was employed, with a study population consisting of all nurses across public health centers in the regency. A total of 72 nurses were selected through purposive sampling, specifically those working on small islands. Results showed that the majority of nurses had high job satisfaction (76.4%), while performance was predominantly in the sufficient category (56.9%). No significant relationship was found between work motivation and job satisfaction (?² = 0.006; p = 0.936); however, a significant relationship existed between work motivation and nurse performance (?² = 19.039; p = 0.000), with 76.9% of highly motivated nurses demonstrating good performance. These findings suggest that work motivation substantially contributes to improved nurse performance, whereas job satisfaction is more strongly shaped by organizational and environmental factors. Improving nurse performance in island regions therefore requires strengthening work motivation alongside systemic reforms in organizational policies, working conditions, and broader health system support.
