"Karakteristik biologis bayi prematur dan perpisahan ibu-bayi akibat hospitalisasi akan memunculkan masalah risiko gangguan perlekatan antara ibu dan bayi prematur. Tujuan penulisan karya ilmiah ini adalah untuk memberikan gambaran penerapan enam langkah proses keperawatan Roy dalam asuhan keperawatan pada bayi prematur dengan masalah risiko gangguan perlekatan. Desain yang digunakan adalah studi kasus. Lima kasus bayi prematur yang menjadi pembahasan dalam artikel ini mengidentifikasi adanya masalah risiko gangguan perlekatan antara ibu dan bayi. Intervensi keperawatan diberikan dengan mengelola stimulus lingkungan melalui serangkaian intervensi keperawatan yang saling memengaruhi antara keempat mode adaptif, salah satunya adalah melalui aplikasi perawatan metode kanguru (PMK) atau skin to skin contact. Evaluasi hasil berdasarkan pencapaian respon adaptif, menunjukkan sebagian besar tujuan asuhan keperawatan dapat tercapai atau tercapai sebagian dan menunjukkan perbaikan meskipun dapat dikatakan belum dapat diatasi secara keseluruhan. Model Adaptasi Roy dapat memberikan kerangka kerja dalam melakukan asuhan keperawatan untuk meningkatkan adaptasi bayi prematur dengan masalah risiko gangguan perlekatan di ruang perawatan khusus dan intensif neonatus. Posisi kanguru Suported Diagonal Flexion (SDF) direkomendasikan sebagai alternatif pilihan untuk dapat meningkatkan kualitas interaksi dan perlekatan ibu-bayi prematur.

The biological characteristics of premature infants and the separation of mother-baby due to hospitalization will raise the risk of attachment disorders between the mother and premature babies. The purpose of writing this scientific paper is to provide an overview of the application of Roy's six-step nursing process in nursing care to premature babies with the problem of attachment disorder risk. The design used is a case study. The five cases of preterm infants discussed in this article identified a risk of maternal-infant attachment disorders. Nursing interventions are provided by managing environmental stimuli through a series of nursing interventions that affect each of the four adaptive modes, one of which is through the application of kangaroo mother care (KMC) or skin to skin contact.

Evaluation outcomes based on the attainment of adaptive responses shows that most nursing care goals can be achieved or partially achieved and show improvement even though it can not be said to be overcome as a whole. Roy's Adaptation Model can provide a framework for conducting nursing care to improve the adaptation of premature infants to the problem of attachment disorder risk in special and intensive care rooms of neonates. Kangaroo Suported Diagonal Flexion (SDF) positioning is recommended as an alternative choice to improve the quality of interaction and attachment of premature mothers."

ABSTRACTLow birth weight babies (LBW) is one of the factors that contribute to infant mortality, especially during the perinatal period. Mothers readiness to care for LBW at home requires special attention. This study aims to determine the effect of LBW mothers education classes using videos and demonstrations on maternal weight, knowledge and skills in baby care in the neonate room. The design of this study is Quasi experimental with pretest-post test with control group design. The number of samples in this study were 48 LBW mothers according to inclusion criteria which were divided into a control group that received neonatal room standard education of 24 respondents and an intervention group that received education using video and demonstrations of 24 respondents. The results of the analysis I found that the increase in knowledge and skills of LBW mothers and LBW weight in the intervention group was higher than in the control group (p <.001), although after being tested between LBW weight groups the results were less significant (p = .34). This research recommends that education using this video can be made in a smaller format that mothers can store on a smart phone or videos can be made available on web pages that mothers can visit at any time to be able to watch educational videos as needed."

Infants with Low Birth Weight LBW have a higher risk of death. In 2015, LBW rate in North Jakarta is 234. Kangaroo Mother Care KMC is one of the effective treatments for LBW. KMC training program for midwives is very important to improve the competence of LBW care. This research aims to evaluate the training program of KMC conducted by Faculty of Public Health UI and USAID using Kirkpatrick rsquo s four levels evaluation models in terms of evaluation of reaction, learning and behaviour KMC implementation.

This research used qualitative method design with Rapid Assessment Procedure. Primary data were obtained by in depth interviews and secondary data from document review of pre test and post test results. The data collection process took place after two months of KMC training in June. All of informants were given informed consent approval sheets before doing the research. The informants were chosen using purposive sampling method consisting of IBI midwives who participated in KMC training, and midwife patients i.e pregnant mother who are doing antenatal care and post partum pregnant mother who had LBW and also key informant i.e the organizer of KMC training. The results of the reaction evaluation showed that most midwives were satisfied with the overall implementation of the training.

The results of the learning evaluation indicate the increase in knowledge of most midwives after training. Behavior evaluation results show that most midwives have not implemented extension behavior and KMC practices to patients after training. It is recommended that IBI conducts similar training to all IBI members and the organizer need to follow up post training for all trainee periodically and continuously so that midwives can continue to improve their competence in treating LBW."
