EFFECTIVENESS OF THE ONE NURSING STUDENT ONE CLIENT ASSISTANCE IN REDUCING HIGH-RISK PREGNANCY

Abstract

Background: This research aimed to identify the effectiveness of One Nursing Student One Client (OSOC) Assistance in decreasing high-risk pregnancy as an effort to   accelerate the decline in maternal and infant mortality rates.Methods: The research design employed the post test-only control group design method, where the high-risk pregnant women are accompanied by one student one client. After supervision has been completed, the results were then compared with the control group that has been given high-risk leaflet prevention for pregnant women. Mann Whitney Test is used to test the difference statistically.Results: The results of high-risk statistical analysis of hypertension obtained results p = 0.000 (P <0.05), anemia p = 0.001 (P <0.05), swollen extremity p = 0.040 (P <0.05) which means there is   a very significant different average value of high-risk pregnancy between the control group and the experimental group. This indicates that OSOC counseling is effective in reducing high-risk pregnancies of positive urine protein to negative urine protein in Blora City Community Health Center compared with leaflets to control groups. Further, counseling at high risk of swollen extremity was obtained p = 0. 114 (P> 0.05) which mean there was no difference of the mean value of high pregnancy risk of swollen extremity between the control and experiment group.Conclusion: One nursing student one client assistance is effective in reducing high-risk of the third trimester pregnancy women suffering from hypertension, anemia and positive urine proteins.
