In Indonesia, those who experience anemia the most are teenagers with a prevalence of 30-55%, meanwhile the proportion of anemia in women is higher than in men with a prevalence of 23.9%. Anemia in teenagers increases pregnant women's risk of chronic energy deficiency, stunting, low birth weight and other health problems. Body mass index (BMI) as an indicator of nutritional status and duration of menstruation is one of the factors causing anemia in adolescent girls, so this research aims to determine the relationship between BMI and duration of menstruation on hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls. Method: The research used a quasi-experimental design using the Nonequivalent Control Group Design model by selecting 60 young women who met the inclusion criteria as a sample. Results: Pearson correlation analysis shows that BMI is not correlated with hemoglobin levels with a p-value of 0.717, while the length of menstruation is correlated with hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls with the strength of the relationship being sufficient with an r-0.331 p-value of 0.010, which means that the longer the adolescent girls menstruate, the longer they menstruate. the lower the hemoglobin level.","PeriodicalId":368213,"journal":{"name":"Nursing and Health Sciences Journal (NHSJ)","volume":"18 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140266164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we aimed to explore SBAR communication during handovers in a public hospital in Bali. This quantitative descriptive study applied a cross-sectional approach and employed 20 participants who were selected using a total sampling technique. A questionnaire was enrolled to collect participants’ demography characteristics and the handover process. The majority of participants were female (90%), with a mean age of 28 years, a working duration <3 years (55%), and registered nurses (45%). SBAR format was effectively delivered during the handovers (95%), especially among female participants (85%), aged 29 years old (20%), participants with less than <3 years of working experience (55%), and registered nurses (40%). SBAR format assists a clear, complete, well-directed, and concise organization of clinical information during the handover process. According to the model care, we only found one team member (5%) with ineffective SBAR communication. Ninety-five percent of the participants had performed proper SBAR handovers.

Recurrent hepatitis C or B infections occur as a late complication after transplantation. Both can be treated well after a liver transplant. Other chronic liver diseases may also recur. The aim of this case report is to share our knowledge and experience about the disease and the case with our colleagues. The patient's data were collected according to M.

The patient was 27 years old, male, single, had a university degree, and lived with his family in a large city. The patient, whose mother also had hepatitis B, had undergone liver transplantation in 2008. In December 2021, the patient was admitted to the gastroenterology department because of increased pruritus and icteric manifestations on the sclera. Nursing diagnoses: Risk of infection due to the inability of hepatic Kupfer cells to perform phagocytosis function, fatigue, ineffective individual coping, disturbed body image due to diffuse icteric appearance, impaired liver function, risk of impaired skin integrity, and lack of knowledge. The nursing process was applied according to the identified nursing diagnoses. The patient was discharged 7 days after hospitalization following the determination of drug levels.
