Perbedaan Penafsiran Taksiran Berat Janin Menggunakan Tinggi Fundus Uteri dengan Ultrasonografi: Differences in Interpretation of Fetal Weight Estimates Using Uterine Fundal Height with Ultrasonography

Introduction : Uterine fundal height has a strong and significant relationship with the baby's weight and reflects fetal growth and fetal size more accurately. Perinatal deaths in low birth weight births and morbidity due to large birth weights are a separate problem in perinatal health and delivery management. Estimated intrauterine fetal body weight has an important meaning in labor management.Method The research method used is Cross-Sectional. The sample in this study was 48 pregnant women who had their pregnancy checked at the Watampone Community Health Center. The sample collection technique was carried out by accidental sampling. Data analysis used the independent T test. Result which was obtained through the independent T test using SPSS, namely P value = 0.001 < 0.05. This shows that there are differences in the interpretation of fetal weight using uterine fundal height measurements and ultrasonography Conclusion There is a difference in the results of TBJ examination using the two methods, namely uterine fundal height measurements and ultrasonography, but the difference between the two is not too big.Pendahuluan: Tinggi fundus uteri mempunyai hubungan yang kuat dan bermakna dengan berat badan bayi dan merefleksikan pertumbuhan janin serta ukuran fetus lebih akurat.

Determinan Upaya Pengobatan Tuberkulosis Pada Anak Di Bawah Umur 15 Tahun

One of the WHO\u27s step of TB strategy reflects the importance of the need to improve care for children with TB. However, children with TB often are neglected to cure, even in the countries with high TB incidence. Around 20 percent children estimated with TB, caused by the spreading of adult TB, and many of them without specific symptom as adult. The aim of this study is to get information about the relation between demography, socio-economic, environmental factors, vaccination status, and contact with adult TB patient, and TB treatment practice of children aged <15 years. The sample was a cross-sectional data of TB Prevalence Survey 2004 and Susenas 2004, which had been merged. The method of analysis was multivariate. The result showed that the significant variable were Sumatera region, household expenditure, BCG scars, and contact with TB patients with log-likelihood < 0.05 (p=0.000). Final model for determinant factors of TB treatment practice for children aged < 15 years were children contact with adult TB patient in the household that had risk of 1.9 times (CI 95%: 1.26-2.89) and place of living classification (Sumatera region) that had risk of 2.6 times (CI 95%: 1.65-4.01). To handle child TB cases and their treatment, there are some actions could be applied, namely: to cure every adult TB until recovery, to conduct active case finding, to educate TB patients and their family to be discipline in taking the drug, to support financial transportation to go to health facility for TB patient in poor family, and to prevent from drop out by supervising them closely

Consumer socialisation of over-the-counter medicines: a study of adolescents in New Zealand and Malaysia

Self- medication with over-the-counter medicines (OTCs) is common practice, not only for adults, but also among adolescents. Tapping into this potentially lucrative segment of adolescents as consumers will require marketers and academic researchers to understand this market well. The long-term benefits are worthy of focus as the buying patterns developed during teenage years are likely to continue throughout adult lives. Furthermore, as this population begins to age, they become a stronger customer base for pharmaceutical products. The majority of studies about OTCs have been conducted from the perspective of pharmacists or healthcare professionals in medical sociology, pharmacy practice and public policy. Very limited research has examined these products from consumer behaviour perspectives. Using a consumer socialisation perspective, this thesis seeks to understand how adolescents learn to use OTCs. In this investigation, we examine a number of possible relationships such as the degree to which an adolescent’s background may influence both the way s/he learns to be a consumer of OTC pharmaceuticals and consumption-relevant outcomes of knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours towards OTCs. In addition, the effect of socialisation agents such as family, peers, mass media, and medical personnel and retail staff on OTC-relevant knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours is examined. We wished to understand similarities and differences between adolescents living in Malaysia and New Zealand with respect to this product class; and, lastly, we wanted to uncover the possibility of a mediation effect of consumer socialisation processes in the relationship between adolescents’ backgrounds and OTC-relevant knowledge, attitudes and behaviours. Data was collected by way of classroom administration at high schools in Christchurch, New Zealand and Johor Bahru, Malaysia. A total of 509 (New Zealand n=276 and Malaysia n=233) usable responses were obtained. Overall, the results of this study showed that self-medication with OTCs was widespread among respondents with a high percentage of them having purchased the medicines themselves. Results indicate that background variables, in general are marginally related to the influence of socialisation processes and consumption-relevant outcomes of knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours towards OTCs. While certain consumer socialisation processes influenced consumption-relevant outcomes, mediation effects were non-existent. Although some differences were noted between the cultures, overall, the results of this study suggest that New Zealand and Malaysian respondents were rather similar when it came to OTC-related consumer socialisation

The Relationship of Mother's Role in Stimulation with Motor Development in Toddler

Toddler period is an important phase in the growth and development of children. The role of parents, especially mothers, is needed to help children develop motor skills so that children's development can be maximized. The objective of this study is to analyze the mother's role in stimulating the child's motor development. The research method is cross sectional. The population in this study were mothers who had children aged 1-3 years in the work area of the Mangasa Primary Health Center, Makassar, amounting to 45 people. The sample in this study was 45 people, taken with a saturated sampling technique or the total population. The statistical test used the chi square test. The results presented that 95.7% of mothers who played a role in stimulating children's motor development had children whose development was appropriate. The results of the chi square test obtained p value <0.001. The conclusion is that there is a relationship between mother's role in stimulation and the motor development of toddler. It is expected that the Primary Health Center or midwives will provide training to mothers about providing developmental stimulation so that mothers can independently assess their child's development and pay attention to their child's development according to age.Toddler period is an important phase in the growth and development of children.

Reduced graphene oxide-multiwalled carbon nanotubes hybrid film with low Pt loading as counter electrode for improved photovoltaic performance of dye-sensitised solar cells

In this work, the role of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with hyperbranched surfactant and its hybridisation with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and platinum (Pt) nanoparticles (NPs) as counter electrode (CE) were investigated to determine the photovoltaic performance of dye-sensitised solar cells (DSSCs). Sodium 1,4-is(neopentyloxy)-3-(neopentyloxycarbonyl)- 1,4-dioxobutane-2-sulphonate (TC14) surfactant was utilised as dispersing and stabilising agent in electrochemical exfoliation to synthesise graphene oxide (GO) as initial solution for rGO production prior to its further hybridisation and fabrication as thin film. A chemical reduction process utilising hydrazine hydrate was conducted to produce rGO due to the low temperature process and water-based GO solution. Subsequently, hybrid solution was prepared by mixing 1 wt% MWCNTs into the produced rGO solution. TC14-rGO and TC14-rGO_MWCNTs hybrid solution were transferred into fluorine-doped tin oxide substrate to fabricate thin film by spraying deposition method. Finally, the CE films were prepared by coating with thin Pt NPs. Photoanode film was prepared by a two-step process: hydrothermal growth method to synthesise titanium dioxide nanowires (TiO2 NWs) and subsequent squeegee method to apply TiO2 NPs. According to solar simulator measurement, the highest energy conversion efficiency (η) was achieved by using CE-based TC14-rGO_MWCNTs/Pt (1.553%), with the highest short current density of 4.424 mA/cm2. The highest η was due to the high conductivity of CE hybrid film and the morphology of fabricated TiO2 NWs/TiO2 NPs. Consequently, the dye adsorption was high, and the photovoltaic performance of DSSCs was increased. This result also showed that rGO and rGO_MWCNTs hybrid can be used as considerable potential candidate materials to replace Pt gradually
