Kangaroo Method Treatment Increases Baby's Body Temperature With Low Birth Weight

Birth weight is less than 2500 grams which contribute to infant mortality especially during the perinatal period, one of the interventions that can be done with kangaroo method, this method can make the baby's body temperature stable because the baby who is in the care of the kangaroo method will feel like it exists in the uterus of the mother, in addition to the treatment of kangaroo methods aimed at helping to accelerate the process of increasing the baby's body temperature as well as being able to stabilize the body temperature in babies who experience low birth weight. The design of the study used is a descriptive method with a case study approach of nursing care using a pre and post-test design conducted on 2 respondents. Before being given the kangaroo method 1 respondent and respondent 2 experienced low weight measured using observation sheet for 3 days while after being given kangaroo method respondent 1 and respondent 2 experienced weight gain measured using observation sheet for 3 days characterized by normal weight. Kangaroo treatment therapy method can increase body temperature in babies with low birth weight in the perinatology room of K.R.M.T Wongsonegoro Hospital Semarang.

A Multifunction Infant Incubator Monitoring System with Phototherapy and ESP-32 Based Mechanical Swing

Many infant mortality rates are due to premature events. Premature babies are at high risk for hypothermia and hyperbilirubinemia. To overcome this, an incubator can be used as a warmer and light therapy as blue light therapy for yellow babies. However, both medical devices have still been found using manual control. If the health worker is tired of working and manually controlling both devices, it can put the baby at risk. Multifunctional infant incubator based on ESP32, which is an infant incubator equipped with phototherapy and a mechanical swing. This multifunctional baby incubator has the ability to warm the baby's body, the baby yellow light therapy, and can calm the baby when crying. This tool can be monitored remotely using the Internet of Things (IoT). The sensors used are the DHT22 sensor and the sound sensor. Multifunctional baby incubator can make it easier for hospital or basic health care facility level to monitor baby's health in real time without being at the device location and the resulting data can be stored neatly.

Kangaroo Mother Care and Swaddling Methods In Low Born Weight Babies In Community Settings: A Systematic Review

Infants born with low birth weight or LBW are very susceptible to hypothermia due to the thin fat reserves under the skin and immature heat regulating centers in the brain. The search for articles consisted of five databases, namely Scopus, Science Direct, PubMed, Garuda, and Proquest. Analysis of 25 articles on kangaroo mother care and self-care showed that kangaroo mother care can keep the baby's body temperature stable and reduce the risk of hypothermia in newborns with low weight and make it easier for the baby to breastfeed. This systematic review shows that the kangaroo mother care method has a more significant impact on baby weight gain and the stability of the baby's body temperature by maintaining skin to skin contact between mother and baby for later implementation in the community. This method is more effective than the swaddling method.

The high rate of infants mortality, particularly children age 1 to 5 years, 30% of it is reported to happen due lack of nutritional status. This study aims to analyze several potential factors influence the nutritional status of children. This research is an analytical survey study with cross sectional approach. The data was collected using questionnaires with anthropometrical measurement, in which the sample was taken by quota sampling technique. The study was conducted from June to July 2017 to 99 mothers of 1 to 5 year kids at Sei Pancur Health Centre of Batam. Further, the data then was analyzed using Chi Square statistical test. The result dismantles 81.8% mothers have good knowledge level on children nutritional status, besides, it is also found 54.5% mothers have low economic status, 39.4% have more than 2 children in family, and 65.7% get their children nutrition fulfilled. On the other hand, the Chi Square test issues the correlation of mother’s knowledge level with p=0.02, the economic status with p=0.03, and the number of kids owned with p= 0.02 to the nutritional status of their under-five years children. Therefore, it can be concluded that the factors like mothers’ knowledge level, number of newborns, as well as the economic status of the family contribute noticeable impacts to the children age 1 to 5 years nutritional status at Sei Pancur Health Centre of Batam City. At last, it is expected that the health centre personnel to routinely check the baby body weight as well as to give vitamins regularly as the nourishment needed for the children to grow.

Pengaruh Perawatan Metode Kanguru (PMK) terhadap Pencegahan Hipotermi pada Bayi Baru Lahir

Most causes of infant death are problems that occur in newborn/neonatal (0-28 days old), Low Birth Weight Babies (LBW) is one of the factors which has a contribution to infant mortality, especially in the neonatal period. Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) is a benchmark in determining the degree of public health, both at the National and Provincial levels. This study aimed to determine the effect of the Kangaroo Mother Care Method (KMC) on the prevention of hypothermia in low birth weight infants at Morowali District Hospital in 2019. The type of research used was a quasi-experiment. The population is all low birth weight babies born from May to July 2019. The sample in this study was all newborns with low birth weight born from May to July 2019, totaling 30 babies. There is a difference (influence) on the baby's body temperature before and after KMC with a p-value=0,000. The kangaroo mother care can continue to be affiliated considering its benefits for both infants and mothers, as well as increasing the ability of health workers in conducting KMC so that they can provide in-house training for mothers to be carried out at home.

The breastfeeding mothers can be interpreted as the process of giving breast milk (ASI) to infants, where the baby has a sucking reflex to get and swallow the milk. The breastfeeding is a natural process of breast milk that is the best food for babies who are able to meet the nutrients needed by the baby's body during the first 6 months. Breastfeeding babies in Indonesia has become a culture but the practice of breastfeeding is still far from expected. According to WHO and UNICEF (2012), there were 136.7 million babies born worldwide in 2011 and only 32.6% of babies were exclusively breastfed during the first 6 months. The method used in this study is Quasy Experiment, with the type of design Nonprobability Sampling and consecutive sampling technique posttest with control design obtained the results of respondent breast milk production before given the consumption of banana heart vegetables, the majority of the majority is (71.4%) and after the majority is (64.3%). Breast milk production of respondents before given the majority consumption of katuk leaves clear vegetables as much as (64.3%) and after as much as (92.9%) with a parametric statistical test that is paired t-test p value 0.040. the most effective was katuk leaf vegetable (92.9%). It is hoped that the results of this study can be used as an evaluation material with future activities.

Kangaroo Mother Care at Low Birth Weight

Kangaroo Care Method is a treatment given to babies with Low Birth Weight (LBW) as an alternative to an incubator. This method uses direct contact between the mother's skin and baby's skin or skin to skin contact. The kangaroo method not only replaces the care of the incubator but also provides benefits that cannot be provided by the incubator. Increasing the baby's body temperature, stabilizing heart rate and breathing, and increasing milk production, decreases the incidence of infection in infants. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the use of the kangaroo method on LBW in Karawang Hospital. The cross-sectional research method uses secondary data through treatment records in the medical record. The study sample was 106 LBW infants treated at Karawang Hospital in the 2018 period. Analysts used average difference test data to see the effectiveness of using the kangaroo method in increasing infant weight. Results: There is an effect of the use of the kangaroo method to increase the baby's weight P-value 0,0001. Recommendation: It is expected that the use of the kangaroo method on LBW can be made into policy at the hospital with the support of health workers and facilities so that families can implement kangaroo mother care (KMC) in full.

Model dan prototipe inkubator mobile menggunakan kontroler PID berbasis Arduino Uno

One of the causes of the high infant mortality rate in Indonesia is the lack of health support facilities in remote areas, including incubators, to keep the baby's body warm at a specific temperature. This research develops a model and prototype of a mobile incubator to carry and maintain the baby's temperature during emergencies to get further treatment to hospitals that have better facilities than incomplete health clinic facilities. The mobile incubator prototype uses a PID controller system with the optimum gain value Kp 1.501, Ki 0.016, and Kd -1,319 from the results of modeling and tuning in Matlab. The results of the bode plot analysis show that system stability was achieved with a gain margin of 109 dB. The incubator's operational mobility can last up to 59.6 minutes with two 12 V, 5 Ah batteries.

The Effect of Touch and Sound Therapy to The Level of Pain and Physiological Parameters in Infants

Background : During hospitalization, infants are exposed to unpleasant stimuli such as stress, pain, noise, and invasive procedures. These stimuli produce significant changes in vital signs. Touch and sound therapies are a therapy given to the infants in the form of a mother's touch and a light pat on the baby's hands, feet, body, and head. This procedure is accompanied by rhythmic sounds that have been made in the form of audio files. Objective : This study aimed to determine whether touch and sound therapy can affect the level of pain and physiological parameter (heart rate, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation) in infants by venous blood sampling. Method : This research is an experimental study with a control time-series design, which was conducted from July to October 2013. The research subjects are 30 infants aged 1-12 months who took venous blood samples. Research data were analyzed statistically by the t-test. Result : The results showed that the NIPS scores differed significantly between the intervention and control groups p = 0.000 (p <0.05). Heart rate has a significant effect between the intervention and control groups p = 0.011 (p <0.05). The respiratory rate in the intervention group was lower compared to the control group p = 0.033 (p <0.05). There was no significant difference in oxygen saturation between the intervention and control groups p = 0.232 (p<0.05). Conclusion: Touch and Sound therapy decrease levels of pain, heart rate, and respiratory rate, but does not affect oxygen saturation.

Difference of Calcium Levels in Infants with Low Birth Weight

Background: Hypocalcemia is a condition that can cause serious disorders, especially in new­borns. The occurrence of hypocalcemia is an event that often occurs in babies born that can be caused due to late parathyroid hormone function in calcium metabolism in the baby's body. Hypo­calcemia is often associated with hypotension and disorders of the heart rhythm, symptoms that are often seen are apnea, tachycardia, lethar­gy, vomiting, and gastrointestinal disor­ders. This study aimed to analyze differences in calcium level between low birth weight infants. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was conducted at Dr Moewardi Hospital, Sura­kar­ta, Central Java, from December 2016 to April 2017. A sample of 158 LBW children was selected using consecutive sampling. The dependent va­ria­­ble is a decrease in calcium levels. The inde­pen­dent variable is low birth weight babies. Data collected by medical records. Data were analyzed using multiple logistic regression. Results: Calcium level ≥1.13 mmol/L (OR= 0.30; 95% CI= 0.15 to 0.57; p <0.001), no seizures (OR= 0.20; 95% CI= 0.06 to 0.64; p = 0.004), and QoTC (OR= 0.20; 95% CI= 0.07 to 0.572; p= 0.003) decreased the risk of low birth weight. Conclusion: Calcium level ≥1.13, no seizures, and QoTC decrease the risk of low birth weight. Keyword s : low birth weight, hypo­calcemia Correspondence: Sandi Nugraha.

Kepatuhan Bidan dalam Penerapan SOP Pemotongan Tali Pusat Pada Bayi Baru Lahir

&lt;p&gt;Pinning and cutting the umbilical cord is a standard procedure that is always done when the baby is born. The benefits of delaying cord clamping for infants include the opportunity for red blood, stem cells, and immune cells to be transmitted to the baby's body outside the uterus. As for mothers, delaying cord clamping can reduce the complications of bleeding. This study aims to determine the Midwife's Compliance Level in the Implementation of SOP Cutting the Cord in Newborns in Bandar Lampung City. This type of research is correlation analytic with a cross-sectional approach. The research subjects are midwives who provide birth assistance services in the city of Bandar Lampung with a total of 131 people, the sample in this study was the total population. Data collection uses primary data. Univariate data analysis uses percentages and bivariate analysis uses chi-square. The results showed that midwives' level of compliance in implementing SOP of umbilical cord-cutting in newborns in the category of non-compliance was 83 respondents (63.4%), midwife knowledge was categorized as good as 102 respondents (77.9%) and the attitude of midwives in the category of no support as many as 76 respondents (58.02%). There is a significant relationship between midwives 'attitudes and midwives' compliance in the adoption of umbilical cord cutting SOPs in newborns and there is no relationship between midwives 'knowledge and midwives' level of compliance in implementing umbilical cord cutting SOPs. Professional organizations (IBI Bandar Lampung City) and midwives coordinator of the local health center need to program supervision to midwives who provide delivery assistance to always implement the SOP cutting the umbilical cord on newborns. &lt;/p&gt;

UTILITY OF TBA IN ASSESSING REVERSIBILITY TO BRONCHODILATOR IN CHILDREN

SESSION TITLE: Pediatrics SESSION TYPE: Original Investigations PRESENTED ON: 10/20/2019 2:15 PM - 3:15 PM PURPOSE: To evaluate the utility of TBA in assessing reversibility to bronchodilator in children METHODS: This is a cross-sectional study. A total of 72 subjects were classified as to doubtful and probable asthma based on the questionnaire adopted from 2017 GINA guidelines. The TPEF/TE and VPEF/TE were measured using Jaeger Masterscreen Baby Body Pediatric System and all subjects where exposed to bronchodilator salbutamol to deteremined reversibility and response. RESULTS: The doubtful and probable range of TPTEF/TE pre-bronchodilator were 25.91 + 8.61 and 25.07 + 7.54 while VPEF/TE values pre-bronchodilator revealed 28.88 + 6.75 and 28 + 6.34 respectively. Bronchodilator response in children with TPTEF/TE in doubtful asthma revealed 18 (50%) and 16 (44.44%) non-responders. VPEF/TE had 19 (54.29%) responders and 15 (40.54%) non-responders. There were 18 (50%) responders and 20 (55.56%) non-responders with TPTEF/TE in probable asthma group. The cut-off value of TPTEF in this study is > 12.4 with 100% sensitivity and specificity while VPEF salbutamol response cut-off value of > 12 with 100% sensitivity and 94.59% specificity. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that TBA (TPTEF/TE and VPEF/TE) pre-bronchodilator values of 25.91 + 8.61 and 28.88 + 6.75 can be used as a reference value for patients with doubtful and probable asthma. However, the utility of TBA as a tool to determine the reversibility to bronchodilator is statistically not significant. Cut-off value of TPTEF/TE and VPEF/TE for reversibility to bronchodilator showed > 12.4 and > 12 respectively. Both showed 100% sensitivity and 94.9% specificity for VPEF/TE. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Asthma is a heterogeneous disease, usually characterized by chronic airway inflammation . It may be difficult to make a confident diagnosis of asthma in children 5 years and younger, because episodic respiratory symptoms such as wheezing and cough are also common in children without asthma, particularly in those 0-2 years old. These patients may subject to Tidal Breathing Analysis (TBA) in order to identify patients with expiratory obstruction and reversibility to salbutamol nebulization. Numerous study has been published to emphasize the usefulness of tidal breathing analysis to diagnosed probable asthma/obstructive airway disease. However, there has been limited studies regarding the range of significant values of TBA parameters in assessing airway obstruction and reversibility after bronchodilator challenge. This study proved that TBA can be used to delineate patients with doubtful and probable asthma and will give the sensitivity and specificity cut-off values for reversibility to bronchodilator.

CHRONONEONATOLOGY: BIORHYTHMIC ENTITY OF A NEWBORN

Human biorhythms display the adaptation of living organisms to the external environment. These are mechanisms that are so well-regulated by nature that they are often called ‘biological clock’.There are definite functions in the body of the newborn that have a daily rhythm (with a period of 2 to 25 hours). Such a rhythmic setup depends on the maturity of the newborn: the circadian rhythm of melatonin synthesis in humans arises from the first days after birth, and its formation ends up 9-12 weeks and in premature babies for 2-3 weeks later. The development of the ‘biological clock’ of the newborn is significantly influenced by the conditions of the environment. Melatonin provides recovery, stabilization and synchronization of chronorhythms of different frequencies, including daily periodism.At this rate, the pleiotropic effects of melatonin on the control of biological rhythms during this period are a matter of particular attention. Our reference is devoted to it.During early postnatal adaptation, it is reasonable to determine the biorhythmologic features of the main physiological indicators of life: hourly blood pressure, heart rate and respiratory movements, body temperature, cortisol, adrenaline, norepinephrine, 6-sulfatoxymelatonin (melatonin metabolite) in fractional urine in the dynamics of the early neonatal period.The tasks of chrononeonatology are the study of the peculiarities of the formation of the circadian setup of physiological functions and the level of the main adaptive hormones in the dynamics of the early neonatal period.In the prenatal period, melatonin penetrates the fetus from the pregnant woman through the placenta, and after birth it enters the baby's body with the mother's milk. It is believed that periodic signals emanating from the mother's pineal gland (PG) cells synchronize the fetal chronorhythms. In the early stages of embryogenesis, these signals have a nervous and humoral genesis, and after birth, only humoral influences.The concentration of melatonin in the blood of a pregnant woman reaches a maximum level to the 32nd week of pregnancy and is restored by the 2nd day after childbirth.Fetal growth restriction is due to a significant decrease in the secretion of melatonin during the first 3 months of life of newborns. It is important that in the preterm infants, the relative deficit of melatonin lasts from 2-4 to 7-8 months.Maternal influence on development does not end with delivery, but continues in the neonatal period. Breast milk contains more than 60 biologically active substances (STH, lactogenic hormone, IGF-1, insulin, etc., in particular melatonin), whose level significantly exceeds their concentration in the peripheral blood of the mother.Early breastfeeding, the rooming-in in the postpartum period, an arbitrary feeding regime contribute to the earlier formation of biorhythms of physiological indicators of life and the favorable course of adaptive processes in newborns.So, summing up, we note that the child's condition is associated with an adequate biorhythmic daily activity. Metabolism lability in the newborn requires keeping in mind the structure of biorhythms in the postnatal period to prevent the development of morbid conditions.

Optimalisasi Pertumbuhan Bayi dengan Baby Massage and Spa

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Baby Massage and Spa was a traditional effort that uses a holistic approach through comprehensive care using a combination of massage and water therapy methods that are carried out in an integrated manner to balance the body, mind, and feelings. Age 3-6 months is the right time for babies to do massage and spa. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of baby massage and spa on the growth of infants aged 3-5 months in Pringsewu District in 2018. This study uses a quasi-experimental approach with research design pre and post-test with control group design. The purposive sampling technique was taken with a sample of 30 infants as the intervention group and 30 infants as the control group. Data were processed using computerization and analyzed using the T-Test. The results showed that there were significant differences between body weight, body length and baby head circumference in the pre and post-treatment. There was no significant difference in the average increase in infant weight between babies who were carried out by baby massage and spa with babies who were not carried out by baby massage and spa with p-value 0.116. There is a significant difference in the baby's body length and head circumference performed by baby massage and spa with those not carried out by baby massage and spa with p-value 0.000. Baby Massage and Spa has a significant effect on increasing the growth of babies aged 3-5 months.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

PENGARUH PIJAT BAYI TERHADAP DURASI TIDUR PADA BAYI UMUR 1-3 BULAN

Sleep is the baby's main requirement because when the baby falls asleep growth and development will be optimal and there will be an increase in brain function and body metabolism. In infants aged 1-3 months have a sleep duration of 14 hours-18 hours per day. Baby's growth and development will be less optimal if there is a sleep disorder. Baby massage is one way to overcome the problem of sleeping in a baby. Baby massage is a gentle rubbing motion on the surface of the baby's body from face to foot. This massage will help relax the baby's muscles and facilitate blood circulation so that the baby becomes calmer and sleeps more soundly. This study aims to determine the effect of infant massage on sleep duration in infants aged 1-3 months. The design of this study used a pre-experimental design with the design of one group pretest-posttest design without a control group. Samples are infants aged 1-3 months, totaling 42 people selected by purposive sampling. The variables measured in this study were infant massage and sleep duration. This study used a statistical test paired t-test (a = 0.05). The results of this study are that there is an effect of infant massage on the duration of infant sleep, this is confirmed by the value of Wilcoxon test with sig 0,000 which then tested the hypothesis with a value of α = 0.05. With a sig value of 0,000

A baby found in a dumpster: Case report

The forensic medical approach to infant mortality has a special place. Determining whether a baby is born alive or dead is important for forensic medicine. The aim of this study is to determine the causes of death in infant deaths and to emphasize the factors that should be considered in approaching especially cases with forensic dimension. An investigation into the incident was initiated when a person poured garbage into collecting waste materials and found a baby body in the bag on the resident at an edge in the afternoon. Forensic medical examination; it was seen that the whole body, including the face, was covered with dried yellow-brown amnion residues and a dried blood smear behind the right ear. No traumatic findings were found in the external and internal organs. The placenta was connected with an umbilical cord in the corpus, and no signs of clamping were observed on the umbilical cord. As a result of forensic medical procedures, stillbirth was detected. As a result, since infant mortality rates are indicative of a level of health development, it is an important goal to reduce these rates for our country. Developing strategies to identify and prevent infant mortality; It is obligatory to determine the missing, strengthen the infrastructure, and make the autopsy and other examinations carefully.

THE EFFECT OF EARLY BREASTFEEDING INITIATION (IMD) ON NEW BORN BABY TEMPERATURE IN BPS HEPPY RINA, S.ST, SEDURI VILLAGE-MOJOSARI AND BPS FIFIT, S.ST, PANJER VILLAGE-MOJOSARI

Background: Newborns often experience a decrease in body temperature. This is due to the inability of newborns to maintain body temperature, subcutaneous fat that has not been perfect, the body surface is broad compared to body mass, and the temperature of the cold environment. To maintain the baby's body temperature to remain normal, an effort must be made. Hypothermia baby handling in BPS is to provide a warm light to increase the baby's body temperature by giving 100 watts of light.Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effect of Early Breastfeeding Initiation (IMD) on the body temperature of newborns.Methods: The research design used was experimental research with the design of the quassy experiment. The independent variable is the body temperature of newborns without Early Breastfeeding Initiation (IMD). The dependent variable is the body temperature of a newborn with Early Breastfeeding Initiation (IMD). The population of all maternity women is 20 people. The sample from this study were 16 maternity respondents. Sampling using accidental sampling method. The research was conducted at BPS Heppy Rina, S.ST, Seduri Village - Mojosari and BPS Fifit, S.ST, Panjer Village - Mojosari. Data collection uses primary data. The instrument used is a thermometer and checklist. Data is presented in the frequency distribution table and analyzed using the Willcoxon test.Results: The results showed that almost all newborns without IMD had hypothermia (43.74%), most newborns with IMD had normal body temperature (37.5%), Willcoxon test results ρ 0.025 &lt;0.05, then H1 was accepted which meant there was an influence of initiation Early Breastfeeding (IMD) on the body temperature of newborns at BPS Heppy Rina, S.ST Seduri Village - Mojosari and BPS Fifit, S.ST Panjer Village - Mojosari.Conclusion: Based on the results of the study obtained early breastfeeding initiation (IMD) affects the body temperature of newborns. Based on the results of these studies, then the handling of newborns who experience hypothermic body temperature is more effective to do Early Breastfeeding Initiation (IMD). Keywords: Early breastfeeding initiation, newborn body temperature, hypothermic.
