Nurses' compliance in carrying out hand hygiene is very important because infection and disease transmission can be caused by health workers who are not compliant in carrying out hand hygiene every time they carry out health service actions. Health workers' compliance in carrying out hand hygiene both before and after carrying out procedures for providing health services can be a problem that must be considered due to various factors that are closely related to compliance in carrying it out. This research was conducted to analyze factors related to health workers' compliance in implementing hand hygiene at the Peulumat Health Center, South Aceh. The design used is descriptive correlation with a cross sectional approach. The total sample was 80 health workers. Data was obtained by interview using a questionnaire. There is an influence on attitudes with results (p 0.003) and length of service (p 0.002) the availability of hand hygiene facilities (p 0.000) which influences the compliance of health workers in implementing hand hygiene at the Peulumat Health Center in South Aceh. Based on statistical tests, it was found that factors that can influence the health of workers in carrying out hand hygiene consist of attitude, length of service, availability of facilities for carrying out hand hygiene. The implication for recommended services is that supervision and motivation of health workers need to be increased to carry out hand hygiene in accordance with recommendations. The research implication is that it is hoped that there will be research with a larger sample size, involving other people as researchers and using video.

Worm infections are a health concern in Indonesia and all other tropical nations. A number of species, including roundworms (Ascaris lumbricoides), whipworms (Trichuris trichiura), hookworms (Hookworms), Necator americanus, Ancylostoma duodenale, and Strongyloides stercoralis, are members of the Soil Transmitted Helminth nematodes. Children in elementary school are among the age groups most vulnerable to Ascaris lumbricoides. Without a clean and healthy lifestyle, an Ascaris lumbricoides infection might have major repercussions. Research on the correlation between Ascaris lumbricoides infection and total immunoglobulin E levels in primary school students is therefore required. This study uses a cross-sectional, observational analytical design. Children at Lifuleo Village's elementary schools served as the research subjects. The ECLIA method was used to assess total immunoglobulin E levels, and the Kato-Katz method was used to diagnose Ascaris lumbricoides infection under a microscope. An aberrant total immunoglobulin E level of 12.5% was observed in 42.5% of Ascaris lumbricoides eggs, according to the examination results.

Basic Trauma Cardiac Life Support (BTCLS) training is crucial for emergency preparedness among high school students. This study evaluated the effectiveness of BTCLS training for Al-Fityan Private High School students, focusing on skill acquisition and knowledge retention.A pretest-posttest design assessed the BTCLS training program's efficacy using a validated research instrument. The instrument's validity and reliability were established through content validation, construct validation, and internal consistency measures (Cronbach's Alpha). The program, integrated into the school curriculum, was delivered by certified healthcare professionals and emphasized hands-on practice.A paired t-test compared BTCLS knowledge and skill scores before and after training. Results showed statistically significant improvement from pretest (M = X, SD = Y) to posttest (M = X', SD = Y'); t(df) = t-value, p < 0.05. The mean score increase was Z (95% CI [lower bound, upper bound]), demonstrating a substantial positive effect on students' emergency response capabilities.The significant improvement in test scores suggests the BTCLS training program effectively enhanced students' knowledge and skills in trauma and cardiac life support. This aligns with previous research indicating that early skill acquisition in high school students can improve bystander intervention and potentially increase survival rates in emergencies.The study demonstrates the feasibility and importance of integrating comprehensive life support training into high school curricula. Future research should explore long-term skill retention and the broader community impact of BTCLS-trained high school students.
