According to the World Health Organization (WHO), hyperemesis gravidarum occurs throughout the world, including the countries of the Americas with varying incidence rates ranging from 0.5-2%, 0.3% in Sweden, 0.5% in California, 0.8% in Canada, 10.8% in China, 0.9% in Norway, 2.2% in Pakistan and 1.9% in Turkey. Meanwhile, the incidence of hyperemesis gravidarum in Indonesia ranges from 1-3% of all pregnancies. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of giving warm ginger to the frequency of Emesis gravidarum in first trimester pregnant women. The type of research used was quantitative research with Pre-Experimental research design using One Group Pretest-Posttest design. The population in this study were all first trimester pregnant women who experienced emesis gravidarum who had their pregnancy checked at BPM Happy Purnama. Sampling in this study used a total sampling technique with a sample of 16 people. Data collection was obtained by using the Pregnancy Unique Quantification of Emesis questionnaire. The statistical results of the study obtained a p-value of 0.002, which means it is smaller than the significant value, which is <0.05, so it can be concluded that giving warm ginger is effective in reducing the frequency of emesis gravidarum. This study is also expected to be an alternative non-pharmacological treatment of emesis gravidarum in first trimester pregnant women.
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever is a major global problem because 2.5 to 3 billion people are at risk of developing this disease, Aedes Aegypti is the main epidemic vector, a disease that usually affects urban areas, but has begun to attack rural areas, an estimated 50-100 million cases per year. The only program to control the transmission of dengue virus is to fight mosquitoes as dengue vectors. One of the most popular methods is the use of insecticides. The use of insecticides for a certain period of time will cause vector resistance, so it must be used wisely. This study aims to determine the effect of the use of mosquito killers as an alternative to controlling Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes in the working area of the Sindang Barang Health Center. This type of research is an experimental method with a pretest-posttest design, the treatment given is exposure to a mosquito killer device which is divided into 2 groups with different placement hours. The study was conducted in the Sindang Barang Health Center Work Area in August-September 2022 in an area that has the highest incidence of dengue cases, the mosquito killer is placed in a humid and dark corner of the room. The results of the pretest-posttest data on mosquito density obtained a significance value of 0.053, which means that the use of mosquito killers is not effective for controlling Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes.
