The healthcare industry is increasingly relying on medical textiles, particularly single-use items such as surgical gowns, masks, and drapes, to maintain hygiene and prevent infections. However, the widespread use of these single-use textiles raises significant environmental and health concerns. These items are primarily made from non-biodegradable materials, contributing to large volumes of waste and environmental pollution. The production and disposal of single-use textiles also generate carbon emissions, further exacerbating climate change. In response to these challenges, reusable medical textiles have emerged as a more sustainable alternative. Reusable textiles offer several environmental benefits, including reduced resource consumption, lower carbon emissions, and decreased waste generation. Additionally, reusable textiles can improve occupational health by reducing healthcare workers' exposure to harmful chemicals and irritants found in single-use textiles. This study compares the environmental impact and occupational health risks associated with reusable and single-use medical textiles, focusing on factors such as carbon footprint, waste generation, and chemical exposure. Life-cycle assessment (LCA) methodologies were employed to quantify the environmental impacts, while workplace exposure measurements assessed the health risks to healthcare workers. The results indicate that reusable textiles significantly reduce carbon emissions and waste compared to single-use textiles. Furthermore, reusable textiles were associated with lower levels of chemical exposure for healthcare workers. The study concludes with recommendations for healthcare systems to adopt reusable textiles to reduce environmental and health risks, while also suggesting areas for future research on sustainable textile innovations and the integration of reusable systems in healthcare facilities.

Pregnancy is the process of fetal growth and development that occurs in the uterus from conception to the onset of labor. In the first trimester, mothers usually experience nausea and vomiting starting at around 8 weeks and ending at 12 weeks. Emesis gravidarum is nausea and vomiting that can cause discomfort and the frequency of nausea and vomiting occurs approximately 5 times a day, which occurs in the first trimester of pregnancy. This study aims to determine the Effect of Mozart Classical Music Therapy on the Level of Emesis Gravidarum in Pregnant Women in the First Trimester. The research design used in this study was pre-experimental with a one group pretest & posttest design approach. The population in this study were all pregnant women in the first trimester in the Jakenan Health Center Area, Pati Regency. The population used was 30 pregnant women in the first trimester. The number of pregnant women samples used in this study was 30 pregnant women, the instrument used was an observation sheet, the results of which will be analyzed using the Wilcoxon sign rank test method. The results showed that most of the frequency of emesis gravidarum before being given Mozart classical music intervention was in the moderate category, as many as 16 respondents (53.3%). Most of the frequency of emesis gravidarum after being given Mozart classical music intervention was in the mild category, as many as 20 respondents (66.7%) and almost some were moderate, as many as 10 respondents (33.3%). Data analysis shows that there is a difference in the level of emesis gravidarum before and after being given classical Mozart music therapy, a p value of 0.000 <α 0.05 is obtained, which means that classical Mozart music has an effect on reducing the frequency of emesis gravidarum in pregnant women in the first trimester in the Jakenan Health Center area, Pati Regency. It is hoped that health workers such as health center officers and midwives will improve their education and handling of reducing Emesis gravidarum in pregnant women non-pharmacologically.

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) in pregnant women is a major nutritional challenge in Indonesia, including in Bukittinggi. Despite proper health service utilization, the burden of CED is relatively high and has a non-economic component that includes cultural and family social support.  The influence of the husband on the nutritional status of pregnant women is frequently overlooked by prevention and control strategies. This study sought to investigate husbands' thoughts and roles in the prevention of  CED  in pregnant women in  Bukittinggi.  The present study employed a qualitative phenomenological research design including 15 husbands of pregnant women (experienced and non-experienced  CED)  and  5–7  triangulation informants  (pregnant women and health workers).  Semi-structured interviews and non-participatory observations provided the data, while  NVivo  12  was employed for thematic analysis. Source triangulation and member checking validate the data. The results indicate that the majority of husbands do not understand CED scientifically and view their support solely as financial assistance. Although emotional and informational motivations can affect positive nutritional behaviors, they are still regarded as weaknesses. Among the external barriers are costs, long hours of work, and a patriarchal culture that severely restricts husbands' ability to be involved in their wives' nutritional problems. However, some informants have indicated a value shift that prioritizes emotional involvement over intellectual focus.  The  intervention strategies for future implementation should be family-based with a primary focus on couples' nutrition education, emotional  strengthening,  and  the  inclusion  of  males  in  maternal  health  programs  (e.g.,  paternity-readiness sessions  

The use of Maternal and Child Health (KIA) books for toddlers at Posyandu Melati 2 in 2023 falls short of the national target of 85%. This low usage rate raises concerns about potential negative impacts on the health of children under five. Cadres play a crucial role in promoting maternal and child health by providing guidance and encouragement regarding the use of KIA books. This study aims to assess the correlation between cadre support and the utilization of KIA books among mothers of toddlers at Posyandu Melati 2 from April to May 2024. A cross- sectional analysis was conducted with a total population of 57 mothers of toddlers, using a total sampling technique. Data on maternal characteristics, cadre support, and KIA book usage were collected through a survey with a questionnaire and analyzed using the chi-square method with a significance level of α = 0.05. Results indicated that only 10.5% of mothers used the KIA books properly, and 28.1% received good support from health workers. The analysis revealed a significant correlation between cadre support and the use of KIA books, with an odds ratio (OR) of 6.5 and a Fisher Exact Test result of p = 0.046. These findings highlight the importance of cadre support in enhancing the use of KIA books among mothers of toddlers, suggesting that increased support could improve usage rates and potentially benefit child health outcomes.
