Title: Relationship of Nursing Management Functions with Missed Nursing Care: A Cross-Sectional Study Authors: Nilasari, Putri; Sri Hariyati, Rr. Tutik; Ode Abdul Rahman, La Abstract: A crucial role of the nurse is to provide safe nursing care without missing anything. Unsafe care is a key contributor to morbidity and mortality in the world. This study aimed to identify the relationship between management functions and nursing care that were missed at three inpatient installations at regional general hospitals. The research used a quantitative approach with an analytic research and cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 238 nursing staff comprising team leaders and implementing nurses who worked at Regional Hospitals A, B, and C. The management function (p = 0.001) and all its components of planning, organizing, staffing, direction, and control (p = 0.001; p = 0.001 p = 0.001; p = 0.001; p = 0.001) were significantly related. The management function and all its components are thus related to missed nursing care. The recommendation is to improve the quality of the implementation of the nursing management function

Title: Reduction of Hopelessness Through Spiritual Emotional Freedom Techniques Therapy in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis Authors: Irman, Ode; Riske Wijayanti, Anggia Abstract: Hopelessness has been identified as a major psychological problem that exacerbates the clinical outcomes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). Hopelessness is mostly reduced by cognitive therapy, but the results are delayed, so a spiritual element is needed. Spiritual emotional freedom technique (SEFT) therapy can reduce hopelessness because it not only focuses on cognition, but also involves spiritual, psychological, and physical elements. This study aimed to determine the effects of SEFT therapy on the hopelessness of CKD patients undergoing HD. This research was quasi-experimental with pre- and post-test control group designs. The sample size was 64 respondents, who were divided into two groups, each consisting of 32 respondents who were selected by purposive sampling. SEFT therapy was conducted four times. Hopelessness was measured using the Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS). The data were analyzed by paired t-test and independent samples t-test. Before receiving SEFT, the two groups did not indicate differences in hopelessness (p = 0.141). However, after receiving SEFT, the respondents’ hopelessness in the experimental group was reduced significantly (p = 0.000). Hopelessness in the experimental and control groups also differed significantly after the intervention (p = 0.000). This study revealed that SEFT reduced the hopelessness of CKD patients undergoing HD. SEFT therapy can be implemented in clinical practice areas of nursing to support patient care

Title: Mental Health Problems Among Adolescent Students Authors: Astutik, Windu; Made Asri Dewi, Ni Luh Abstract: Concern for adolescents usually focuses on physical problems, such as reproductive health and nutrition, including anemia and obesity. Nowadays, adolescent mental health has been recognized as essential, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Mental health problems that often occur in adolescents include anxiety, depression, and the risk of suicide. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of mental health problems and the risk of suicide among adolescent students in Bali Province, Indonesia. The sample consisted of 435 students from four junior high schools (Grades 7, 8, and 9) aged 12–15 years who were selected with a multistage sampling technique. This descriptive study applied the Indonesian version of the Pediatrics Symptom Checklist-Youth (PSC-Y) report. The results showed that 14.5% of adolescent students experienced mental health problems, and 6.7% had a risk of suicide. Screening for adolescent mental health, especially in school, is important to ensure normal development and detect mental health problems as early as possible.

Title: Factors Related to Father’s Behavior in Preventing Childhood Stunting Based on Health Belief Model Authors: Mishbahatul Mar’ah Has, Eka; Panji Asmoro, Candra; Petrus Gua, Wilhelmus Abstract: Childhood stunting is still a significant public health burden in Indonesia. Fathers' engagement in childcare could improve a child's health and help to prevent stunting. This study aimed to analyse factors related to the father's behaviour in preventing childhood stunting based on Health Belief Model. This study was used a correlational study design with a cross-sectional approach. This study involved 199 fathers who had children under five years old, recorded at Puskesmas (Public Health Center) Maronggela, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. Samples were taken using the cluster random sampling technique. The independent variables were the father's perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefit, perceived barrier, cues to action, and self-efficacy regarding childhood stunting and its prevention. The dependent variable was the father's behaviour in preventing childhood stunting. The questionnaire was used to collect the data. Data were then analysed using the Spearman Rho Test with a level significance of 95% (α < 0.05). The statistical analysis showed that perceived susceptibility (p = 0.023; r = 0.161) and cues to action (p = 0.004; r = 0.204) correlated with the father's behaviour in preventing childhood stunting, while perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and self-efficacy did not correlate. The current study suggests that fathers' behaviour to prevent stunting among children under five years was related to their perception of an illness and the cues that can trigger their decision-making process. These findings can be used to arrange health promotion programs to improve fathers' behaviour and engagement in childcare to prevent childhood stunting.
