THE RELATIONSHIP OF MOTHER'S AGE AND NEWBORN'S WEIGHT WITH PERINEUM RUPTURE

Perineal rupture is an injury to the birth canal that occurs during birth due to tissue damage due to pressure on the baby's head and shoulders during the birth process. The aim of the research was to determine the relationship between maternal age and newborn weight with perineal rupture at the Independent Midwife Practice (PMB) Irma Suryani, Prabumulih City in 2023. The research method was analytical, using a cross sectional approach. The population of this study were all mothers giving birth at the Independent Midwife Practice (PMB) Irma Suryani, Prabumulih City. The sample taken in this study used the Random Sampling technique method, namely 149 people. The research instrument is a checklist. The results of the study based on univariate analysis showed that of the 149 respondents there were 64 respondents (43%) who were diagnosed with perineal rupture and 85 respondents (57%) who were diagnosed with not perineal rupture, there were 52 respondents (34.9%) who were of high risk age and 97 respondents (65 .1%) who had a low risk age, there were 35 respondents (23.5%) who had a high risk birth weight and 114 respondents (76.5%) who had a low risk birth weight. Of the 52 respondents with a high risk age, there were 38 respondents (25.5%) who were diagnosed with perineal rupture. Of the 97 respondents who had a low risk age, there were 26 respondents (17.4%) who were diagnosed with perineal rupture and of the 35 respondents who had a heavy newborn baby. At high risk births, there were 31 respondents (20.8%) who were diagnosed with perineal rupture, while of the 114 respondents who had low risk birth weights, there were 33 respondents (22.1%) who were diagnosed with perineal rupture. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between maternal age and perineal rupture with a P value of 0.000 < ? 0.05 and there is a significant relationship between the weight of the newborn and perineal rupture with a P value of 0.000 < ? 0.05.

The results of the baby's body length and weight measurements are displayed on the LCD located on the surface of the box

Pengaruh Terapi Birthball terhadap Kemajuan Persalinan Kala I pada Ibu Bersalin di Pustu Bangun Rejo Kecamatan Tanjung Morawa Kabupaten Deli Serdang Provinsi Sumatera Utara Tahun 2024

Birthball or birth ball can be used by mothers in the first stage of labor which is useful for helping the progress of labor. The advantages of using a birthball are that it can increase blood flow to the uterus, placenta and baby, and can increase the pelvic outlet, provide comfort for the knees and ankles, provide counter-pressure on the perineum and thighs, work with gravity that pushes the baby down so that it accelerates the process of opening and lowering the baby's head and the labor process can take place physiologically. This study aims to determine the Effect of Birthball Therapy on the Progress of Labor in the First Stage of Labor in Mothers in Bangun Rejo Health Center, Tanjung Morawa District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra Province. The research design used is the Quasy Experiment Method (Experiment). By using the Two Group Design design, in this study the population was all mothers in labor as many as 20 people using the Mann-Whitney Test. The results of the study using the Man Whitney test to see the comparison between the intervention group and the control group obtained a sig value of 0.029 or <0.05 with a z table value of 2.189. So H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted, which means that there is an effect of birthball on the progress of the first stage in mothers who are given birthball therapy and those who are not given birthball therapy at Pustu Bangun Rejo, Tanjung Morawa District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra Province. It is hoped that the research site will become a forum and facilitator for mothers in labor in facing a comfortable and enjoyable labor process in going through a shorter first stage.

Shaken baby syndrome in neonate: a clinical masquerade

Abusive head trauma, which is a subset of Shaken baby syndrome, refers to a type of brain injury that occurs when the baby's head is subjected to undesirable forces. The characteristic lack of contributory history often leads to misdiagnosis, delayed treatment and suboptimal clinical outcome. We reported a neonatal presentation of abusive head trauma which posed significant diagnostic challenges. This manuscript depicts our journey to the correct diagnosis and also a review of current literature on abusive head trauma.

Factors Associated With The Occurrence Of Sectio Caesarea Delivery In The Hospital Dr. Agoesdjam Ketapang, 2022

Usually, doctors recommend vaginal or cesarean delivery if the pregnancy is at risk. causes of a cesarean section carried out for indications of the mother or fetus, including: history of cesarean section if the distance between pregnancy and birth is less than 2 years, the birth process is not progressing, the fetal position is flat, the size of the baby's head or body is too large for normal delivery, the mother has other problems. health problems that put you at risk, such as high blood pressure, diabetes or heart disease, mothers with health conditions that put you at risk, such as genital herpes or HIV, quoted from the NHS website, mothers of small children because they often have a small pelvis, have had surgery past cesarean delivery, had problems with the placenta, such as placenta previa or placenta previa, baby's umbilical cord problems, babies with birth defects, twin pregnancies, triplets or more, babies in the womb with health problems, such as hydrocephalus or uterine fibroids, mother with uterine problems or fibroids blocking the cervix (cervix). This research is a descriptive study and the data used in this study is secondary data from the medical records of patients who underwent caesarean sections at Dr Agoesdjam Ketapang Hospital in 2022.Based on the results of multivariable analysis, it is known that the factor most related to the number of caesarean sections is the number of births with a p-value of 0.000 (p-value <0.05), with a standard deviation of 14.05. In other words, it can be concluded that the more negative the birth history, the higher the caesarean section rate.

THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN BIRTH WEIGHT AND THE OCCURRENCE OF PERINEAL RUPTURE IN TALANG PUBLIC HEALTH CENTER, TEGAL DISTRICT

The weight of the newborn is a risk factor for perineal tearing when spontaneously delivered. This is because the perineum is not strong enough to withstand stretching of the baby's head when the baby weighs a considerable amount. According to the data obtained from Talang Public Health Center, in the number of births in January - October 2021, 28% of mothers experienced perineal rupture during vaginal delivery. This study aimed to determine the relationship between newborn weight and the incidence of perineal rupture. A quantitative with a correlational design was used in this research. The data was collected from January to May 2022 in Talang Public Health Center. The sample used in this research was 119 mothers who gave birth. We used secondary data and analyzed it using SPSS with the chi-square statistical test. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that there is no significant relationship between the birth weight of the baby and the incidence of perineal rupture in Talang Health Center with the value of p = 0.650 > α = 0.05. This may be due to other factors such as maternal, fetal, birth, and birth assistance factors. Hopefully, this research will provide health workers and the community with knowledge so pregnant women can have regular ANC visits to monitor fetal development.

Evaluating the Efficacy of the Zelisken Ball in Shortening the First Stage of Labor: A Quasi-Experimental Study

During labor, mothers frequently report having excruciating contractions that continue for hours or even days. An assistive gadget is required to expedite labor and aid in the baby's head drop. The Zelisken Ball, an invention of the research group, is a bolster-shaped ball used in basic exercises or physical care. The study aimed to determine whether using the Zelisken Ball could shorten the time pregnant mothers spend in the first stage of labor. Pregnant women's level of comfort and satisfaction while using it, along with its effects on each delivery stage, were highlighted. Using a control group, the study used a quantitative methodology and a quasi-experimental post-test-only design. Purposive sampling was employed to identify 50 postpartum patients for the sample. The Zelisken Ball was utilized by the intervention group in this study, while the Peanut Ball was used by the control group. Questionnaires were used to gather data, and SPSS software was implemented to perform an Independent Sample t-test to determine differences between the two groups. The mothers who utilized the Zelisken Ball advanced through the first stage of labor more quickly, according to the data, with a difference of 1.29 hours (77.4 minutes) between them and the control group (8.3 hours) who used the Peanut Ball. The results of the data analysis indicate that mothers who used the Zelisken Ball and those who utilized the Peanut Ball had significantly different first-stage labor durations (p-value of 0.026, <0.05). As a result, the Zelisken Ball shows great promise as a useful tool for accelerating the early stage of labor. The research has been modified to create Zelisken, which is two-thirds the size of a peanut ball and has an indentation of ½ on the ball. The outer material of Zelisken is made of Oscar fabric, and the inside is filled with foam, whereas the peanut ball is made of PVC and has an interior filled with air. Future research, however, needs to increase the sample size to include a wider range of respondents to strengthen the findings' generalizability.

Edukasi Kebutuhan Status Gizi Pada Ibu Hamil Trimester Pertama di PMB M Ginting Kecamatan Siantar Martoba Kabupaten Simalungun Tahun 2023

Background: Malnutrition during pregnancy will affect the growth, formation and development of organs as well as the function of the fetus's organs becoming less than optimal, it is feared that congenital defects will occur in the baby born, it could even result in the baby's head being small due to a lack of fetal nutritional intake for brain development so that brain development is not optimal. . Apart from that, infant deaths due to LBW, namely less than 2.5 kg and premature babies, are also due to the mother's poor nutritional status (Nurul Pujiastuti, 2015). The aim of this community service program (PKM) is to increase education on nutritional needs for pregnant women in the first trimester in PMB M Ginting, Siantar Martoba District, Simalungun Regency in 2023. The methods used include 1) identification of pregnant women in PMB M Ginting, Siantar Martoba District, Simalungun Regency); 2) preparation of materials and steps for education on nutritional needs for pregnant women in the first trimester); 3) implementation of education on nutritional needs for pregnant women in the first trimester). Results Based on the results of implementing community service for outpatient pregnant women in PMB M Ginting, Siantar Martoba District, Simalungun Regency, in 2023 there are a total of 30 pregnant women as members, of which the majority are 20-35 years old, 27 pregnant women (90%), < 20 years old, 3 pregnant women (10%), all participants were enthusiastic about carrying out educational activities on the nutritional needs of pregnant women. Providing information regarding increasing the use of the registration application for Education on Nutritional Needs for Pregnant Women in the First Trimester in order to improve the comfort of pregnant women.

Clinical and Aesthetic Review of Episiotomy Wound Closure Methods.

An episiotomy is a surgical incision in the perineum to facilitate the baby's head during delivery. Physicians or midwives may use this procedure if he/she finds out the tissue around the vaginal opening begins tearing or does not seem to be stretching enough to allow the baby to be delivered. With an increasing trend for hospital births and for physicians to get involved in the normal uncomplicated birth process, there was rise in the number of episiotomies. After the baby is delivered through the extended vaginal opening, the area is applied with local anesthetic agent and incision is repaired with sutures. Our study reviewed the development in the past twenty years regarding episiotomy wound closure methods, and discovered that continuous sutures for episiotomy or perineal repair have clinical advantages in term of faster and better wound healing, more favorable scarring, shorter post-procedural pain, more rapid resumption of sexual activity, lower incidence of urinary incontinence, compared to interrupted sutures. They were also beneficial in term of less consumption of suture materials. In determining suture materials, clinicians should strongly consider the tear severity, tissue characteristics, as well as the desired aesthetic outcome.

Clinical case: radiological

Craniosynostosis is a congenital defect of unknown cause in which one or more sutures of the baby's head close partially or totally earlier than normal, it has an incidence of 1 in 1,000 to 3,000 live births, with higher prevalence in males. The evolution of this disease is different in each case and can be mild or severe. They present symptoms such as: irritability or inconsolable crying and very little activity. As your skull grows, it can become more and more deformed and give different neurological symptoms. It may be due to certain genetic syndromes such as Apert, Pfieffer or Croizon syndrome affecting the development of the baby's skull. We present a case of a newborn with this rare pathology.

The effect of birth ball exercise on labor pain, delivery duration, birth comfort, and birth satisfaction: a randomized controlled study.

This study aimed to examine the effect of birth ball exercise on labor pain, delivery duration, birth comfort, and birth satisfaction. The study used a randomized controlled trial design. All 120 primiparous pregnant women were randomly assigned to the intervention (IG) and control groups (CG). After the cervical dilatation reached 4cm, the pregnant women in the IG performed birth ball exercises, adhering to the birth ball guide created by the researcher. No intervention was made in the control group other than standard midwifery care practices. The labor pain level between the groups (VAS 1-when cervical dilatation was 4cm) was similar to each other. The labor pain level (VAS 2- when cervical dilatation was 9cm) scores of the women in the IG were significantly lower than those in the CG (p < 0.05). The time between the active phase of labor until dilatation is complete and the time until the baby's head comes out after full dilatation was found to be statistically significantly shorter in the IG compared to the CG (p < 0.05). Childbirth comfort and satisfaction mean scores between the groups were found to be statistically insignificant (p > 0.05). As a result of the study, it was determined that the birth ball exercise significantly reduced labor pain and labor time. We recommend that the birth ball exercise be applied to all low-risk pregnant women because it helps fetal descent and cervical dilatation, and shortens labor pain and delivery time.

'Compressed Baby Head': A New 'Abusive Head Trauma' Entity?

Child abuse represents an important issue in the medico-legal and social context. In the last few decades, various aspects and mechanisms have been identified in child abuse case studies; however, constant research is needed in the field. With this paper, the authors will present a case of a new entity of Abusive Head Trauma that has come to the attention of medico-legal experts. The trauma analysis performed on the cranio-encephalic district of the baby revealed quite peculiar lesions that led the authors to exclude that the injuries had been solely caused by violent shaking of the baby's head, as suggested by Shaken Baby Syndrome. Instead, the authors hypothesised that another lesion mechanism had been added to this one, namely latero-lateral cranial compression. The comprehensive and exhaustive analysis of the case led the authors to present a new possible entity in child abuse trauma, namely 'Compressed Baby Head'. To the best of our knowledge, in the current literature, no similar clinical cases have ever been described. Thus, the case's uniqueness deserves to be brought to the attention of experts and the entire scientific community, as well as medical personnel, paediatricians, and reanimators. These professional figures are the first individuals who may encounter complex clinical cases such as the one presented in this paper; thus, they need to know how to properly manage the case and ensure protection for the abused infants and children.

Effect of Upright Position on Pain and Duration of the Active Phase of the First Stage of Labor among Women in Labor in the Work Area of Tasikmalaya TPMB

Prolonged labor is one of causes of maternal and infant death. Several causes of prolonged labor are inefficient uterine contractions, presentation or position of the fetus, inadequate pelvic bones or abnormalities of maternal soft tissues, which result in failure to progress in labor and an increase in the incidence of Caesarean section delivery. The upright position will encourage stronger and more efficient contractions, wherein gravity will occur to keep the baby's head pressed towards the lower uterine segment so as to help cervical dilation and shorten the duration of labor. Upright positions in the first stage of labor include walking, standing, sitting, half-sitting, kneeling, and crawling positions. This study aims to determine the effect of upright position compared to supine position on the level of pain and the duration of the active phase of the first stage of labor among primigravida women in labor. This was a quasi-experimental study with a post-test only design. There were 100 study samples who were assigned in the control group and the intervention group, consisting of 50 respondents, respectively. The study was conducted at the Tasikmalaya TPMB. Data collection was carried out for approximately 6 months on March-August 2022. The results showed that primigravida women in the active phase of the first stage of labor with upright position had a shorter duration of labor compared to those with supine position. Independent t test results obtained a p value equals 0.000 (p is less than 0.05). Such finding indicated a statistically significant difference. Based on the results of the data analysis, it can be concluded that there was a significant difference in the duration of the active phase of the first stage of labor between upright position and supine position among women in labor in the Work Area of Tasikmalaya TPMB.
