Background: Since 2006 evaluation of scientific writing process, as graduation requirement in Faculty of Medicine Atma Jaya Catholic University, has not been done. The objective of this study is to find out supervisors perceptions on quality of under graduate theses and its relationship to supervisors’ characteristics.Method: This descriptive study was done to 29 supervisors. Interviews were done using questionnaire. Dependent variable was perceptions on quality of under graduate theses (idea, proposal, writing process, presentation and publication). Independent variables were characteristic, knowledge, attitude and behavior of supervisors related to process of scientific writing. Data was analyzed using chi-square test.Results: There was equal proportion (50% vs 50%) between good perception and bad perception on quality of undergraduate theses. Significant relationship was found between perception on quality with supervisors attitude (p=0.04) and master degree (p=0.02). Supervisors aged 45 years old and less (53% vs 47%), have taught for 10 years and less (64% vs 39%), have academic position as assistant and lectur (5% vs 47%), have published articles within the last 3 years (40% vs 60%), have more than one research within the last 3 years (56% vs 4 %), have non positive attitude (78% vs 27%), supervise students twice or more (57% vs 43%), meet student for less than 45 minutes per meeting (67% vs 33%), were more like to perceive low quality of under graduate theses.Conclusion: Supervisors generally perceive that qualities of under graduate theses are still low. Positive attitude and non-magister supervisors tend to perceive the quality of theses to be good.
Integration was strategy of PMTCT (Prevention of Mother to Child HIV Transmission) and MCHS (Mother and Child Health Services) since 2006. This systematic review explored integration level between PMTCT and MCHS. Literature searched from June 2015 to January 2016 through Google, Google Scholar, University Library Website, Portal Garuda, ProQuest, PubMed and 90 institutions in Jakarta. Keywords were PMTCT, HIV Mother, PPIA HIV Evaluation and HIV PMTCT Evaluation. We yielded 157 literatures from 1995-2015. Research should be done at Public Primary Health Care (PHC), discussed PMTCT implementation, and captured perspectives of staffs or decision makers. Thematic analysis was done using Atun’s Integration Analysis Framework and CFIR. We included 7 studies. No study explored overall dimensions of integration, especially planning function. Challenges were resources, execution, needs of patients, networks and communications, policies, leadership, and access to information. Only 4 studies showed PMTCT results. Coverage of first visit counseling was 9-100% and percentage of pregnant women tested was 3.9 -60%. PMTCT integration was partial. Integration was not a sole solution to results. Planning should be done together with regional and local level, involving stakeholders to disseminate PMTCT information, increasing ownership and leadership. We proposed Atun’s Framework and CFIR for further research.
Introduction: One of the biggest health problems faced by community is pulmonary tuberculosis (TB).TB is an respiratory tract infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium Tuberculosis. World Health Organization (WHO) recommends TB treatment with Directly Observed Treatment Short-course (DOTS) strategy, one of which is through the help of treatment supporter (PMO or Pengawas Minum Obat) who supervises the patient during the treatment period. Methods: This was an analytic descriptive study with cross sectional approach.. Respondents were taken by consecutive sampling, based on medical records at Atma Jaya Hospital. We applied inclusion criteria such as newly diagnosed TB patient with positive sputum smear microscopy results, adult TB patient who has finished 6 month of treatment and patients who have done sputum smear microscopy test after finishing their TB treatment. The exclusion criteria were TB-HIV patients and Milliary TB patients. After fulfilment of those criteria, a total of 81 respondents were selected. Data was analysed by Chi Square test (Fisher Exact test). Results: Most of patients were 15-50 years old (70,4%) with mean age at 38.49±17.83 years old),male (53.1%), had family as treatment supporter (91.4%) and had successful TB treatment (74.1%). TB patients with treatment supporter had more successful treatment (66.7%) than TB patients with no treatment supporter (7.4%), however there was no significant among the avalibility of treatment supporter and the success of TB treatment (p=0.670). Conclusion: Despite the insignificant result, this study gives good insight to implementation of TB DOTS strategy in Atma Jaya Hospital. The implementation of this strategy contributes to imbalance number of samples between patient with and without treatment supporter, leading to overestimate results on with TB treatment supporter group.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
