This type of research design was creational with a cross-sectional research approach. The research population was 180 people. The sample was taken using purposive sampling with a total sample of 36 respondents. Data collection tools in the form of questionnaires and observation sheets. Based on the results of statistical tests using the fisher's exact test, the results of the p-value = 0.631> α = 0.05, so it can be concluded that there is no relationship between knowledge and the behavior of applying hand hygiene in the inpatient room of Lanto Hospital Dg Pasewang Jeneponto and for the relationship between attitude and behavior. The result obtained a p-value of 0.715> ɑ = 0.05, so it can be concluded that there is no relationship between attitude and behavior of applying hand hygiene in the inpatient room of Lanto Dg Pasewang hospital Jeneponto.

H ABDUL MOELOEK LAMPUNG PROVINCE Introduction: According to WHO in 2010 as many as 356,000 women died due to childbirth problems, maternal mortality was caused by several factors, including bleeding, one of the causes was placenta previa. The frequency of placenta previa increases in high parity, old age, uterine defects such as cesarean section, curettage, myomectomy and so on. Purpose :this study was to determine the relationship between maternal parity and the incidence of placenta previa in the obstetrics room of Dr. H Abdul Moeloek, Lampung Province.Method : This research was conducted using an analytic design with a cross sectional approach. The population in this study were all mothers giving birth at RSUD Dr. H Abdul Moeloek in 2015, which numbered 1435 people. Samples taken using systematic random sampling of 313 people. The analysis used was univariate analysis, namely by presentation and bivariate by chi squere.Result : The results obtained from the study of the frequency of mothers who experienced placenta previa were 49 (15.7%) people, the distribution of the frequency of parity at risk in labor was 193 (61.7%) people, There was a relationship between maternal parity and the incidence of placenta previa based on statistical tests obtained P value = 0.008 with the result of the OR value = 2.786.Conclusion : Suggestions from researchers are that the hospital is expected to further improve human resources by holding training or seminars for midwifery room employees, installing placenta previa protocols in the obstetrics room so that they can improve supervision of both the delivery process with placenta previa or the factors that cause placenta previa. Keyword : Parity, Plasenta Previa  INTISARI : HUBUNGAN ANTARA PARITAS IBU DENGAN KEJADIAN PLASENTA PREVIA DI RUANG KEBIDANAN RSUD DR.

Abstract Background : The negative impact of COVID-19 on population health outcomes raises critical questions on health system preparedness and resilience, especially in resource-limited settings. This study examined healthworker preparedness for COVID-19 management and implementation experiences in Uganda’s refugee-hosting districts.Methods : A cross sectional, mixed-method descriptive study in 17 health facilities in 7 districts from 4 major regions. Total sample size was 485 including >370 health care workers (HCWs). HCW knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) was assessed by using a pre-validated questionnaire. The quantitative data was processed and analysed using SPSS 26, and statistical significance assumed at p<0.05 for all statistical tests. Bloom's cutoff of 80% was used to determine threshold for sufficient knowledge level and practices with scores classified as high (80.0%–100.0%), average (60.0%–79.0%) and low (≤59.0%). HCW implementation experiences and key stakeholder opinions were further explored qualitatively using interviews which were audio-recorded, coded and thematically analysed.Results: On average 71% of HCWs were knowledgeable on the various aspects of COVID-19, although there is a wide variation in knowledge. Awareness of symptoms ranked highest among 95% (p value < 0.0001) of HCWs while awareness of the criteria for intubation for COVID-19 patients ranked lowest with only 35% (p value < 0.0001). Variations were noted on falsehoods about COVID-19 causes, prevention and treatment across Central (p value < 0.0356) and West Nile (p value < 0.0161) regions. Protective practices include adequate ventilation, virtual meetings and HCW training. Deficient practices were around psychosocial and lifestyle support, remote working and contingency plans for HCWs safety. The work environment has immensely changed with increased demands on the amount of work, skills and variation in nature of work. HCWs also reported moderate control over their work environment, high level of support from supervisors (88%) and colleagues (93%). Conclusions: HCWs preparedness is inadequate in some aspects. Implementation of healthcare interventions is constrained by the complexity of Uganda’s health system design, top-down approach of the national response to COVID-19 and longstanding health system bottlenecks. We recommend continuous information sharing on COVID-19, a design review with capacity strengthening at all health facility levels and investing in community-facing strategies.

Anemia is a condition where the hemoglobin level in the blood is below normal. Anemia is directly caused by daily food intake that contains less iron and folic acid. Data from the Basic Health Research conducted in 2013 showed that the proportion of pregnant women who were anemic in Indonesia reached 37.1%, in Central Sulawesi anemia in pregnant women reached 24.42%, then for the Palu city it was found in the Tawaeli Health Center reaching 58, 7%. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between food consumption and folic acid with the incidence of anemia in pregnant women in the Tawaeli Health Center Area. This type of research is analytic observational using cross sectional. Sampling is done by visiting the respondent's place directly or door to door with 40 people. Data collection was done directly, using a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) and to find out anemia in pregnant women using Hb meter (Diaspect). The results showed that the percentage of anemia anemia was higher in pregnant women who rarely discussed iron food (56.7%) with the results of statistical tests showing p value = 0.02 (p <0.05) and folic acid (52.6%) with the results of statistical tests showing a p value of  0.04 (p <0.05). The results showed an association between iron food and folic acid with the incidence of anemia in pregnant women.Keywords: Iron, folic acid, pregnant women, anemia
