Abstract. Diarrhea is still the second highest cause of the death in children under five in the world. Innovation programs continue to be sought to reduce the number of child death due to diarrhea and help diarrhea prevention in Indonesia. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of educational games called as Arbi Care on diarrhea prevention towards the knowledge of healthy behavior among preschoolers. This study used pre-post test control group design involving 120 participants whom fit the inclusion criteria. Participants were randomly divided into a control group of 60 participants and the intervention group consists of 60 participants. Data were analyzed using one-way MANOVA test. The results showed there were significant mean differences in knowledge of healthy behavior to prevent diarrhea between control group and intervention group. There was also a different increased inclination of mean score which is intervention group score higher than control group. Arbi Care is effective in improving the knowledge of healthy behavior to prevent diarrhea among preschoolers. Thus, Arbi Care is recommended to be the model to help prevent diarrhea in children using educational game.
Background: Fever is a clinical manifestation that is often experienced by sick children. Fever can be dangerous if there is a high fever. Seizures can occur as a result of high fever which is not treated early, causing hypoxia of brain tissue and ultimately damage. According to WHO estimates that around 17 million cases of fever worldwide, there are 600,000 deaths each year.Purpose: This study aimed to find out effective interventions to reduce body temperature in children.Methods: This research used quantitative descriptive design with systematic review approach. The research instrument uses Duffy’s Research Appraisal Checklist Approach.Results: After searching the article, there were 9 articles related to giving warm compresses, 6 articles with the location of administration in the axilla and tepid songe areas (wiping the whole body), 7 articles by giving compresses for 30 minutes and 10 articles with compressed water temperature 37oC.Conclusions: Of the 15 articles that have been traced successfully, the most interventions given were warm compresses in the axilla and tepid sponge areas by giving compresses for 30 minutes and compressed water temperature of 37oC
Background:The low consumption of fruits and vegetables is one of the risk factors for death in the world. Indonesia is a country that is rich in fruits and vegetables but has a low consumption level. The lowest age group in consuming fruit and vegetables is adolescents.Purpose:The purpose of this study was to determine the factors that influence fruit and vegetable consumption behavior in adolescents based on the Health Promotion Model Nola J. Pender.Methodology: This study used a descriptive-analyticcross-sectional study design involving 249 adolescents. The data was collected using a questionnaire to measure the factors that influence fruit and vegetable consumption behavior and food frequency questionnaire. The questionnaires were distributed online via social media for two weeks. Data were analyzed using linear regression.Result:Factors that influence fruit and vegetable consumption behavior in adolescents are resistance to action (p = 0.05), self-efficacy (p <0.001), parental interpersonal influence (p <0.001), and peer influence (p = 0.05). Ethnic factors, knowledge of benefits, and the environment do not have a significant effect on fruit and vegetable consumption behavior among adolescents. There are still 93.4% other factors that also influence fruit and vegetable consumption behavior in adolescents.To promote healthy consumption behavior of fruit and vegetable in adolescents we should increase the self-efficacy of adolescents, involved parents and peer groups as a role model for healthy behavior.
