The sampling technique was simple random sampling, consisted of 52 respondents who were divided into two groups. The statistical using a paired t-test and independent t-testResults: After the administration of PMR and aromatherapy interventions, the fatigue score decreased significantly from 5.15 to 3.15; p<0.001. In the control group, the fatigue score was reduced from 5.04 to 4.00; p<0.0001. There was a significant difference in fatigue scores in the intervention and control groups (3.15 ± 1.592 vs. 4.00 ± 0.980; p<0.05).Conclusion: Combination progressive muscle relaxation exercises and aromatherapy are effective in reducing fatigue scores in pregnant women

Birth rate through Caesarean surgery (C-section) keeps increasing globally. Research states that expecting mothers suffer from anxiety prior to C-section. Impacts of pre-Caesarean anxiety are increasing post-Caesarean pain, increasing analgesic need, longer hospitalization, and postpartum depression. One of the methods to overcome anxiety before C-section is conducting Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) therapy. This study described the influence of PMR therapy on anxiety level of Pre-Caesarean mothers in the Surgery Room of RSUD dr Haryoto, Lumajang. The study used quasi-experimental pre-post test with control group design. The sampling technique was consecutive sampling and the number of the sample was 26 respondents. The instrument for PMR therapy was PMR therapy tool. Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) was used to measure anxiety level. Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) had a significant influence towards decreasing level of anxiety for the pre-Caesarean mothers (p= 0.000). Anxiety will cause physiological tension, one of which is characterized by muscle tension. Muscle relaxation will lower the physiological tension that will ultimately decrease anxiety. Therefore, PMR may become an alternative therapy to overcome anxiety, especially anxiety before sectio caesarean surgery.

Background: Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) as an indicator of maternal health during pregnancy, childbirth, and childbirth. Anemia contributes 20% to the incidence of maternal deaths caused by bleeding during labor. The government prevents anemia by giving iron tablets at least 90 tablets for pregnant women. However, the prevalence of anemia remains high, because of the low adherence in consuming Fe tablets every day. Self-efficacy adherence is a predictor of health behavior and adherence to treatment.Objective: To improve adherence with self-efficacy in consuming Fe tablets in pregnant women with health promotion and WhatsApp reminder in Yogyakarta City Health Center.Method: This study used a quasi-experiment method with a pre-test post-test non-equivalent control group design. The sample amounted to 59, the sampling technique used was consecutive sampling which was taken by random sampling technique in which samples were taken alternately to determine the intervention group and the control group.Results: There were significant differences in the self efficacy score between the intervention groups (Mean = 6.30, SD = 8.11) and the control group (Mean = 0.89, SD = 7.83) with t-test = 2.60 and ρ = 0.012.Conclusion: There is a significant difference in self-efficacy adherence with consuming Fe tablets in pregnant women before and after being given health promotion and WhatsApp reminder intervention and control groups. Health service agencies can consider the combined service between health promotion and WhatsApp reminder to improve self-efficacy in adhering to consuming Fe tablets in increasing Hb levels in anemic pregnant women.

The results of the average difference test of students’ conceptual understanding show that the sig. (2-tailed) value generated is 0.001 < 0.05, it indicates H0 is rejected, which means that there is a difference in conceptual understanding between the inquiry class and the local wisdom-based inquiry class. The profile of concept understanding on each indicator of class 5 students on the theme of heat and its transfer through the inquiry model as a whole is included in the good category with a percentage of 79.32 and the results of the interviews showed that students are easier to understand the material conveyed through direct observation to the roof tile manufacturing company.
