| Sleep disturbance, associated symptoms, and quality of life in adults living with HIV in Jakarta, Indonesia | Hening Pujasari, Judith Levy, Gabriel Culbert, Alana Steffen,David Carley & Mary Kapella | Adverse symptom experiences, including sleep disturbances, are important negative predictors of quality of life (QoL), but few studies conducted in low-income countries have examined the impact of poor sleep and its associated symptoms on QoL among people living with HIV (PLWH). To this end, 200 PLWH who were receiving treatment with antiretroviral therapy (ART) were recruited through a community nongovernment organization in Jakarta, Indonesia. Validated instruments measured QoL, sleep disturbance, fatigue, pain, ART adherence, substance use, drug use severity, and methadone treatment. Descriptive statistics, bivariate correlations, and multivariate linear regression were conducted to identify independent correlates of QoL. Overall, participants perceived their QoL as being good to very good (mean = 105.70, standard deviation = 14.7) and higher among women than men (p < 0.05). After adjusting for sex, education, drug-use severity, and ART adherence, QoL was negatively associated with fatigue, insomnia, and pharmacological treatment with methadone. Along with other known symptoms of HIV, sleep problems and their complications are important to clinically address and research more fully to assure satisfying QoL among PLWH. | Sleep disturbance, associated symptoms, and quality of life in adults living with HIV in Jakarta, Indonesia |

| Remuneration Satisfaction to Improve Work Motivation of Nurses: A Cross-Sectional, Descriptive Analysis Study | Muthmainnah, Krisna Yetti, Dewi Gayatri,Kuntarti | Adequate remuneration is an effort to attain nurses' retention and enhance the work motivation, which, in turn, can exert a positive impact on the nurses' performance, enabling them to deliver quality services. This study aims to determine the correlation between the remuneration satisfaction and motivation of nurses in the hospital setting. We conducted a descriptive, quantitative study using the cross-sectional approach on 74 nurses, who were enrolled using the total sampling method, at one hospital in Depok (West Java, Indonesia). Although the remuneration satisfaction was measured using a questionnaire developed by us, the work motivation was measured using the Herzberg questionnaire. A significant correlation was observed between the remuneration satisfaction and work motivation (P=.019; =0.05). Nurses satisfied with the remuneration had 3 times the chance of displaying high work motivation. This study recommends hospitals to apply the remuneration system based on the Minister of Health Decree Number 652 of 2010.

| Experience of Domestic Violence Survivor Women in Searching Their Life Purpose and Self-Resilience | Laura Khattrine, Noviyanti, Achir Yani S. Hamid , Novy HC Daulima | Victims of intimate partner violence (IPV) often experience several psychological disorders, such as anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression, driving them to a point where they lose their life purpose. Resilience implies the ability of victimized women to adapt to their stressful situations or recover by regaining the balance among their physiological, psychological, and social aspects of life. Those who attain self-resilience are called survivors—a phenomenon that has been scarcely investigated regarding the discovery of life purpose and self-resilience of women who are survivors of IPV in Central Java. Thus, this study aims to gain insight into the experience of IPV survivors in discovering their life purpose and self-resilience. We conducted qualitative research on six IPV survivors and determined four themes—self-reliance and bravery marking the beginning of life recovery, support from the closest person who provides strength, coping strategies used for the survival, and learning from experience to reinforce future goals. This study recommends mental health nurses to act as counselors for IPV survivors to support them in their recovery phase to enhance the mental health of patients. Keywords: IPV, women. | Experience of Domestic Violence Survivor Women in Searching Their Life Purpose and Self-Resilience |
| Fear of Recurrence Predictors among Indonesian Gynecological Cancer Survivors | Ira Sukyati, Yati Afiyanti, Hayuni Rahmah, Ariesta Milanti | Fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) is the most common psychological issue amongst gynecological cancer survivors, and yet it remains unexplored, especially in developing countries such as Indonesia. Hence, this study aimed to identify the predictive factors of FCR among gynecological cancer survivors in Indonesia. A descriptive cross-sectional design was used. Women diagnosed with gynecological cancer, who had completed primary treatment were recruited from a referral hospital in Jakarta, Indonesia. Data were collected using a demographic and disease-related questionnaire and the Fear of Cancer Recurrence Inventory. Pearson's correlations test, t-test, and linear regression analysis were performed. A total of 114 women participated in this study. Age was the strongest predictor of FCR in the domains of severity, psychological distress, insights, and reassurance. Marital status and type of treatment strongly predicted the FCR domains of functional impairment and coping strategies, respectively (P < .05). The findings of this study indicate the importance of patient characteristics while addressing the issue of FCR among gynecological cancer survivors. Further studies aimed at understanding FCR among gynecological cancer survivors may provide insight into the aspects of this condition that necessitate more attention.

| Difficulties in Performing Prayers as a Muslim Transgender Individual | Chaterina Janes Pratiwi, Agung Waluyo, Sri Yona, Herni Susanti | The number of transgender individuals living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in Indonesia is increasing. As human beings, transgender individuals have needs, including spiritual and religious needs. The purpose of this study is to explore transgender individuals’ experiences when praying as Muslims. This qualitative study uses a phenomenological approach. We recruited 15 transgender Muslims living with HIV. Answers obtained during the course of in-depth interviews revealed the following trends: (1) Constraints encountered when attempting to pray as transgender individuals among the Muslim community; (2) transgender women perceive that they are men while praying; and (3) hospital nurses do not provide spiritual guidance. Nurses should provide for the spiritual needs of transgender individuals. Keywords: Prayers, Islam, transgender, HIV. | Difficulties in Performing Prayers as a Muslim Transgender Individual |
| Early Therapeutic Interventions for Low Self-esteem among Adolescents with Early Prodromal Signs of Psychosis | Nurilla Safitri Damanik, Budi Anna Keliat, Herni Susanti | Low self-esteem is an early prodromal sign of psychosis in adolescents. Early intervention is needed to prevent psychosis among this age group. Thus far, no studies have investigated the effects of group cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and family psychoeducation (FPE) on the selfesteem of adolescents in Indonesia. The present study aimed to explore the influence of CBT and FPE on the self-esteem of adolescents with early prodromal signs of psychosis. An experimental study was conducted. Of the 79 participants selected after screening using the prodromal questionnaire and Rosenberg’s self-esteem scale questionnaire, 39 were further classified into the intervention group and 40 into the control group using the random sampling technique. The analysis was performed using the paired t-test and analysis of variance. Results revealed that the RSES score of the CBT and FPE groups was significantly higher than that of the control group (p <.05). CBT and FPE, which are considered early therapeutic interventions, are recommended to increase the self-esteem of adolescents with early prodromal signs of psychosis. Keywords: Adolescents, psychosis. | Early Therapeutic Interventions for Low Self-esteem among Adolescents with Early Prodromal Signs of Psychosis |
| Body Image, Social Support, Effects of Chemotherapy, and Sexual Desire in Breast Cancer Patients | Muthia Octaviana Widianti, Sri Yona, Masfuri, Agung Waluyo | The number of patients with breast cancer in the world, including Indonesia, is high. Breast cancer survivors experience numerous physical, psychological, and social changes, which affect their sexual desire. Sexual desire is intimately linked with body image, social support, and side effects of chemotherapy. This study aimed to investigate the correlations of body image, social support, and side effects of chemotherapy with sexual desire. This cross-sectional study included 110 consecutive patients undergoing chemotherapy at public and private hospitals in Semarang and in a public hospital in Jakarta. The results demonstrated significant correlations between sexual desire and body image (P=.000), social support (P=.000), and side effects of chemotherapy (P=.003). The results of multivariate analysis showed that among the factors investigated, body image had the greatest effect on sexual desire. To address issues related to this decrease in sexual desire among patients with breast cancer, nurses should evaluate body image, social support, and side effects of chemotherapy soon after patients with breast cancer have undergone chemotherapy.

| Optimizing the use of digital sensors (non-invasive) for early detection of risk factors for recurrent stroke to improve quality of care: A systematic review [version 1; peer review: awaiting peer review] | I Made Kariasa, Elly Nurachmah, Setyowati, Raldi Artono Koestoer | Background: Improving awareness in patients with stroke to detect risk factors of recurrent stroke has recently become a major challenge for all health professionals in preventing recurrence among stroke survivors. Utilization of advanced technology, such as digital sensors, (a non-invasive device) is among the breakthroughs in detecting the risk of disease and promotes more effective prevention and improves quality of care. This study aims to conduct a systematic review on studies addressing early detection of the risk factors of recurrent stroke through the utilization of digital sensors. Methods: A literature search was carried out on articles published between 2011 - 2018 on EBSCO, Elsevier, Science Direct, ProQuest, Springer link, PubMed, MEDLINE, PLoS, and the Journal of Community Nursing. The search identified quantitative research studies on the utilization of digital sensors in cases of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, and cardiac disorders that contributed to stroke recurrence. Each study’s bias was assessed using Review Manager 5. Results: Ten articles were analyzed through data extraction. Robust assessment of independent risk factors which provoke recurrent stroke such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, and heart diseases could lead to conservation of health resources. It is very important to monitor these factors. With the development of technology, the potential use of non-invasive monitoring for hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, and heart diseases as risk factors for recurrent stroke events is considered effective because it is easy, simple, low cost, sensitive, and does not cause additional suffering for patients. Conclusion: A practical and non-invasive method for early detection and monitoring of risk factors may reduce the risk of stroke recurrence among stroke survivors.

| Effectiveness of balance exercise among older adults in Depok City, Indonesia | Stefanus Mendes, Kiik, Junaiti Sahar, Henny Permatasari | Objective : Falls are a serious problem for older adults. Balance impairment is one of the most significant reasons why adults fall from a standing position. This study aims to investigate the effect of an eight-week postural balance exercise intended to reduce the risk of falls among older adults in a community in Depok City, Indonesia. Method : This quasi-experimental study employed a pre- and post-test design using a control group. The study involved an intervention group of 30 respondents and a control group of a further 30 respondents. The sample was selected using multistage random sampling. The data were analyzed using a t-test. Results : The balance exercise significantly affected the respondents’ postural balance and reduced their risk of falling. There were significant differences between the two groups (intervention group and control group) in postural balance (p < .001) and the risk of suffering a fall (p = .023). Conclusion : Balance exercises can be utilized as one of the preventive efforts to maintain postural balance and reduce the risk of falls among older adults. Future studies may consider the variation of age to more accurately determine the effectiveness of this balance exercise.

| Family's experience in caring for clients with suicidal risk in indonesia | Renny Nova, Achir Yani S. Hamid, Novy HC Daulima. | Suicide is one of the psychiatric emergencies that require comprehensive care because individuals are at risk of endangering themselves, others and the surrounding. Suicide in Indonesia is increasing. Families have a major role in caring for clients and preventing suicide but family burdens have not been studied profoundly. The aim of the study was to get an overview of family experience of caring for clients with suicide risk. The research design was qualitative with descriptive phenomenology approach involving six participants. Data was collected by in depth interview and analyzed using Colaizzi method. The results of the study found five themes; suicide attempts is a complex burden for families, behavioral changes as a suicide sign, concern as a form of family and community support, family perceptions about the causes and consequences of attempted suicide and coping strategies of families overcoming the impact of attempted suicide. The results of the study recommend that the family as the front social unit of suicide prevention can be more sensitive to changes in the behavior of clients and nurses as counselors can provide interventions to improve the mental health status of clients and families such as health education, family psycoeducation therapy, stress management and self help group. The conclusion that can be drawn from the five themes above is the burden of the family who provide caring for the client with the risk of suicide is heavier when the family is unable to recognize the client's suicide signs so there is a need for a support system and constructive coping. Keywords: client with suicidal risk; family experience | Family's experience in caring for clients with suicidal risk in indonesia |

Evidence indicates the potential of such activities to promote mental health literacy. However, this has not yet been explored in Indonesia. Aim This paper describes a mental health public engagement festival carried out in Indonesia in November 2018 and uses evaluation data to consider the acceptability and use of such activities in Indonesia in the future. Method : Evaluation data was collected from 324 of the 737 people who attended a six-day mental health festival comprising 18 events including public lectures, film screenings, arts activities, exercise classes and panel discussions. Attendees were asked to evaluate the festival in terms of its quality, benefits and areas for improvement. Descriptive statistics were used to analyse the evaluation data. 87 service users, carers, academics and professionals also engaged in a research prioritisation exercise to collaboratively determine mental health research priorities for Indonesia. Results : Participants evaluated the festival extremely positively with a significant majority (92%) rating the quality of the festival as good or excellent. Attendees reported an increase in their understanding of mental health issues and identified intended behaviour change including an increased propensity for future engagement with mental health research. Key strengths of the festival included the central role of patients, carers and the local community in the design and delivery of the festival which promoted emotional engagement and development of shared understanding and the use of international experts which in attendees’ opinion further enhanced the credibility of festival activities. Conclusion : This manuscript indicates that a co-produced mental health public engagement festival is a potentially acceptable way to increase awareness of mental health in Indonesian populations. Future festivals should be larger in scope and target men, older people and the general public to maximise benefit and incorporate rigorous evaluation of effectiveness. | Evaluating the acceptability of a co-produced and co-delivered mental health public engagement festival: Mental Health Matters, Jakarta, Indonesia |

| The knowledge, ability, and skills of primary health care providers in SEANERN countries: A multi-national cross-sectional study | Shizheng Du, Yuling Cao, Tong Zhou, Agus Setiawan, Myat Thandar, Virya Koy, Mohd Said Bin, Nurumal, Hong Anh, Wipada Kunaviktikul, Yan Hu. | Background: Primary health care (PHC) is usually the initial point of contact for individuals seeking to access health care and providers of PHC play a crucial role in the healthcare model. However, few studies have assessed the knowledge, ability, and skills (capacity) of PHC providers in delivering care. This study aimed to identify the capacity of PHC providers in countries of the Southeast and East Asian Nursing Education and Research Network (SEANERN). Methods: A multi-national cross-sectional survey was performed among SEANERN countries. A 1–5 Likert scale was used to measure eight components of knowledge, ability, and skill of PHC providers. Descriptive statistics were employed, and radar charts were used to depict the levels of the three dimensions (knowledge, skill and ability) and eight components. Results: Totally, 606 valid questionnaires from PHC providers were returned from seven countries of SEANERN (China, Myanmar, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Malaysia), with a responsive rate of 97.6% (606/621). For the three dimensions the ranges of total mean scores were distributed as follows: knowledge dimension: 2.78~3.11; skill dimension: 2.66~3.16; ability dimension: 2.67~3.06. Furthermore, radar charts revealed that the transition of PHC provider’s knowledge into skill and from skill into ability decreased gradually. Their competencies in four areas, including safe water and sanitation, nutritional promotion, endemic diseases prevention, and essential provision of drugs, were especially low. Conclusions: The general capacity perceived by PHC providers themselves seems relatively low and imbalanced. To address the problem, SEANERN, through the collaboration of the members, can facilitate the appropriate education and training of PHC providers by developing feasible, practical and culturally appropriate training plans. | The knowledge, ability, and skills of primary health care providers in SEANERN countries: A multi-national cross-sectional study |
| Evaluation of nursing care behavior Culture Program’s Implementation at Dharmais Cancer Hospital | Tuti Nuraini, Enie Novieastari,< Krisna Yetti. | The concept of caring is used by nurses in providing nursing care. However, there are factors that influence nurses’ caring attitudes, such as job stress and dehumanization, which make nurse caring behavior decrease. Our program offers a solution to build a caring culture for cancer nurses. The activities carried out were the socialization of the caring culture to nurses, training for the head nurse as a change agent who guided nurses, assignment from the head of the hospital to the head nurse, and a guidance program for the head nurse as a champion to nurses. After the activity was finished, we evaluated the implementation of caring culture by focus group discussion for the head nurse. As a result, eight themes were obtained: observation guidance about caring behavior to help champions monitor and increase the nurses’ caring attitudes, training about caring to help nurses change their caring attitude, excessive workload makes nurses display less-caring behavior, Whatsapp application helps socialize caring culture, spiritual power from the inside fosters caring behavior, support from hospital leaders for caring behavior, needs for caring behavior training and therapeutic communication for all health care providers and administrative staff, needs for caring behavior standard operating procedures (SOP) and guidance from senior nurses. The number of nurses who behave caring well also increase by 38% after intervention (p = 0.021). The result of FGD can be suggestions for the hospital of ways to improve the caring culture.

| Expectations of survivors towards disaster nurses in Indonesia: A qualitative study | Herni Susanti, Achir Yani S. Hamid, Sigit Mulyono, Arcellia Farosyah Putri, Yudi Ariesta Chandra. | Objective: This study aims to explore the expectations of survivors towards disaster nurses. Methods: The study used qualitative content analysis. Data were collected in 2017 through three focus group discussions with 21 survivors and in-depth interviews with three community leaders; the respondents had experienced one of the following events: a) an earthquake in Padang 2009, b) a volcanic eruption in Yogyakarta 2010, and c) flooding in Jakarta 2014. Results: Four themes represented survivors’ expectations of what nurses can do in responding to a disaster, including: a) provision of direct nursing care, b) provision of information of health service access, c) provision of resources through cross-sector coordination, and d) disaster preparedness activities for the community. Conclusions: This study suggests the importance of disaster nurses having the competency to update information regarding healthcare access, particularly the utilization of health insurance and providing culturally competent care to the survivors. Disaster nurses are also expected to be able to train the community and families about preparedness-related activities. Besides, these disaster nurses should improve their competency in disaster risk reduction.
