Can Not Having Breakfast Make It Difficult for Children to Concentrate? Come on, check out the explanation!<\/a><\/h3>
One of the activities that must be done in the morning is breakfast. But most people often skip breakfast, because they don't have time to eat breakfast before going to the office or school. In fact, eating in the morning is the most important meal time for the body, especially for children who will receive lessons at school. Eating breakfast can increase study concentration and make it easier to absorb lessons, so that learning achievement will be better. \n\n \nWhat happens if you don't eat breakfast? Several possibilities can occur if you don't eat breakfast, such as stress and anxiety, fainting, heartburn, and not being able to concentrate while studying. This happens because there is a lack of intake in the body in the morning which makes the above happen. Apart from that, not having breakfast can also cause an increase in stomach acid, which can cause heartburn, and this is why someone could get stomach ulcers due to not having breakfast. \n\n \n\n What are the best foods to eat for breakfast? \n1. Carbohydrates \nBreakfast with a source of complex carbohydrates in the morning can increase energy for the body, so that the body's glucose needs can also be met. \n2. Proteins \nProtein is a supporting source that is very influential in tissue and muscle growth. Protein comes from meat, eggs, milk, cheese \n3. Fat \nOur main source of nutrition is not only protein and carbohydrates, but also fat. Foods that are rich in fat are milk, nuts, butter \n4. Fiber and Vitamins \nConsuming vegetables and fruit in the morning can regulate the growth and maintenance of the body, because vegetables and fruit contain many vitamins and minerals, and are high in fiber. This is very good to consume for breakfast in the morning. \n5. Calcium \nConsuming milk in the morning can provide sufficient energy for the body. Apart from that, consuming milk in the morning can fulfill nutritional needs and maintain the health and function of the body's organs. \n6. Mineral Water \nConsuming mineral water in the morning is very good, because it can increase the body's metabolism and is also useful for burning calories in the body, besides that it can also make the body more energetic, so that children are ready to do activities in the morning and will be more comfortable. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Importance of Immunization for Children<\/a><\/h3>
Immunization goals \n\n prevent dangerous infectious diseases before they spread in the community. \n\n How do vaccines work? \n\n Immunization àof the body forms immunity àThe immune system will form specific immunity against certain diseases. \n\n In the future, if the child is infected with the disease, the child will not get sick because the immune system will immediately react quickly against the disease. \n\n Why should children be immunized? \n\n \n Immunization is a safe and effective way to prevent diseases that are widely circulating in the community. The benefits of immunization are enormous when compared to the very small risk of vaccine side effects. \n If enough people in a community are immunized, it won't take long for the infection to spread from person to person. \n Children who have been immunized if they get sick are generally mild. \n \n\n Why do children need to get so many immunizations? \n\n Several immunizations are needed in the early years of a child's life to prevent dangerous diseases. The more diseases that can be prevented, the higher the chances of a child living with a better quality of growth and development. \n\n The baby's immune system is immature. The baby's immune system cannot work as well as in older children or adults, so immunizations need to be repeated. \n\n Is immunization safe? \n\n Some children may experience mild vaccine side effects, occurring within 1-2 days after receiving immunization and recovering quickly without having to receive medication. \n\n The most common side effects are redness, swelling, pain at the injection site, and may be accompanied by low-grade fever or irritability. \n\n How to handle: \n\n \n Give more to drink \n Don't wear thick clothes \n If necessary, paracetamol can be given to reduce fever. \n \n\n It should be remembered that the currently available vaccines are very safe compared to if the child has to suffer from a disease that can be prevented by immunization. \n\n \n\n How long will immunization provide immunity? \n\n In general, immunization will produce immunity after 2 weeks of administration. This means that prevention of the disease is not immediately obtained after the child has received immunization. Some immunizations need to be repeated several times to get long-term prevention. \n\n \n\n What are the consequences if immunization is late? \n\n The immunization schedule has been prepared taking into account the exact time when a child must be protected against dangerous infectious diseases. If it is too late to give immunizations at the proper age, children will be vulnerable to disease transmission. \n\n For immunizations that must be given several times, the distance between the two immunizations is 4-8 weeks. If it is too far, the immunity that is formed is not optimal. \n\n Do late immunizations have to be repeated? \n\n If you realize that the immunization is late, immediately come to the health facility and ask for the missed immunization. \n\n Hermina's friend, \n\n Child immunization is the administration of vaccines to children to prevent transmission of certain diseases. Vaccines are substances that function to help form immunity or immunity against infection with a number of infectious diseases. \n\n \n\n Hermina Periuk Hospital Tangerang serves Immunization or Vaccination of Children. \n\n Information and registration contact: \n\n (021) 29432525 \n\n 0857-8268-2142 (WA) \n\n _ \n\n Stay healthy Hermina friends \n\n _ \n\n Enjoy the convenience of registration via: \n\n 1.

Early Detection and Intervention of Child Growth and Development Disorders<\/a><\/h3>
Hermina's friends early detection and intervention in child growth and development disorders are early examinations by finding deviations in children's growth and development. It is important for parents to know that their children are growing optimally, parents need to escort children to their growth and development because parents are an important factor, must be swift and care about their children's lives at the beginning of their growth \n\n Entering the age of 3 months the baby will show the strength of his neck that has begun to form, at this age the baby can already raise his head, can already grasp objects, can already see his mother smile, can already say his first word, can already imitate and laugh imitating his mother's expression. The following is an explanation in terms of growth, development and some of what disorders are found, so that parents can quickly intervene or determine therapeutic measures for their children. \n\n \n\n Growth : increase in physical size and body structure in part or in whole, so that it can be measured by units of length and weight. \n\n Development: the increase in more complex body structures and functions in the ability of rough motion, fine motion, speech, and language as well as socialization and independence. \n\n Some growth and development disorders that are often found: \n\n 1. Speech and language disorders \n\n 2. Short stature \n\n 3. Autism disorders \n\n 4. Mental retardation \n\n 5. Attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (GPPH) \n\n Early detection of growth disorders: \n\n 1. Growth monitoring (weight, length/height, head circumference) \n\n 2. Determination of the nutritional status of children \n\n Early detection of developmental disorders: \n\n 1. Child development screening \n\n 2. Hearing power test \n\n 3. Power test view \n\n 4. Early detection of deviations in emotional behavior \n\n 5. Early detection of autism in preschoolers \n\n 6. Early detection of hyperactivity in children \n\n Early intervention of developmental disorders : directed developmental stimulation carried out intensively for 2 weeks and followed by evaluation of the results of developmental stimulation interventions. \n\n Parents and families are instructed to intervene according to the problems or deviations found in their child. \n\n If developmental disorders are not treated, it is necessary to intervene by health workers related to child growth and development. Immediately consult a Pediatrician at Hermina Periuk Tangerang Hospital. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

DIABETES IN CHILDREN<\/a><\/h3>
DIABETES IN CHILDREN \n\n Get to know diabetes in children so that mothers understand when to do an examination, let's understand it together. \n\n Diabetes is a disease or health disorder characterized by high levels of sugar in the body. Diabetes can strike anyone, including children. Research conducted by the Indonesian Pediatrician Association (IDAI), November 2021 there were 1,346 children with diabetes, type 1 diabetes mellitus is diabetes that many children experience. \n\n Juvenile diabetes, which is now often referred to as type 1 diabetes, is a rare form of diabetes characterized by failure of the pancreas to produce insulin due to abnormalities in the immune system. It is estimated that only 5% of diabetic patients suffer from this condition. \n\n Insulin is a hormone the body uses to convert glucose into energy, which cells need to stay healthy. The pancreas is responsible for producing insulin. However, in the case of juvenile diabetes, the immune system attacks the cells in the pancreas, resulting in impaired pancreatic function. Without insulin, blood sugar levels can increase, causing various complications, such as damage to other organs. \n\n Symptoms of diabetes in children: \n\n • Often hungry \n\n • Often thirsty \n\n • A lot of pee \n\n • Free weight loss \n\n • Fatigue and irritability \n\n • Yeast infection in girls \n\n • Heavy breathing \n\n • Nausea and vomiting \n\n • Impaired vision \n\n The following signs are indications of an emergency. Mothers should seek immediate medical care if their child experiences one or more of the following symptoms: \n\n • Severe stomach pain \n\n • Loss of consciousness \n\n • Rapid breathing \n\n • Confusion followed by convulsions or shaking \n\n • Bad breath \n\n It is important to know the difference between type 1 diabetes (juvenile diabetes) and type 2. In type 1 diabetes, the islets of the pancreas, which are responsible for producing insulin, do not function. In type 2 diabetes, the islets are working but either the body has developed resistance to insulin, or the pancreas is not producing sufficient amounts of insulin. \n\n Regardless of the type, the result is the same—organs and tissues become deprived of sugar and begin to malfunction. In addition, blood sugar levels increase, causing life-threatening complications. \n\n Juvenile diabetes is impossible to avoid because this disease can be congenital or the patient has certain genes that cause the disease to appear. Research reveals that juvenile diabetes may be triggered by certain factors, such as viruses, the child's diet, and low levels of vitamin D. \n\n If a child shows any of the above symptoms, other than a patient who requires emergency care, you need to consult a Pediatrician for examination and treatment. If the child exhibits symptoms that require emergency services, do not delay seeking emergency medical care or taking the child to the nearest hospital emergency department. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Polio Disease Causes and Symptoms<\/a><\/h3>
\n\n \n\n Polio is a type of disease that needs to be watched out for. Apart from being fatal, it can also spread quickly and attack all ages, but transmission is most rapid in children under 5 years of age. Patients can experience neurological, respiratory, and permanent paralysis due to the disease caused by this viral infection. \n\n Preventive measures are urgently needed considering that the virus that causes this disease is very easy to spread. Polio is a disease that must be avoided because the consequences for sufferers are extremely dangerous. \n\n \n\n Reason \n\n Until now, preventive measures such as raising public awareness about this one disease have been implemented. The virus that causes polio spreads easily through the mouth and inhalation, then spreads throughout the body via the bloodstream. \n\n Children who play with sufferers are very easily infected. Direct contact with patients, sharing cutlery, or splashes of saliva can act as intermediaries for the spread of the virus. The following groups are very susceptible to contracting and suffering from polio : \n\n \n \n People who live in areas that are unhygienic or have poor sanitation \n \n \n Pregnant mother \n \n \n Health workers \n \n \n Families where one of their members is infected \n \n \n Travel to infected areas \n \n \n\n \n\n Symptom \n\n Patients are frequently unaware of the diseases caused by this virus. At the beginning of the infection and the development of the virus in the body, no signs appeared. The fact that it is frequently too late makes handling difficult. Patients are only aware that they have contracted the disease after an infection occurs, which can have negative consequences and worsen their health. \n\n Meanwhile, from the time of entry to the time of infection, the patient is very likely to transmit it to others. People around them were unable to predict because the patient displayed no symptoms. Based on the symptoms, there are two types of polio : \n\n a. Non-paralysis \n\n This first type is considered less dangerous because it can heal itself after the patient has been sick for 1–10 days. In addition, non-paralysis also does not cause paralysis. Symptoms of the disease take a long time to appear from the first day the virus enters the body, which is around 6–20 days. Patients usually experience: \n\n \n \n Fever \n \n \n Sore throat \n \n \n Headache \n \n \n Numbness in an arm or leg \n \n \n Vomiting \n \n \n Weak muscles \n \n \n Stiffness in the neck and part of the back \n \n \n\n \n\n b. Paralysis \n\n This second type needs to be watched out for because it can be fatal. Patients can experience permanent paralysis of the nerves, brain, and spine. In contrast to the non-paralysis type, the second one is detected quite quickly because symptoms have appeared in just one week. Signs of the attack of the disease are : \n\n \n \n Legs and arms feel weak. \n \n \n Reflexes on any part of the body are lost. \n \n \n Tense and sore muscles \n \n \n\n Patients who seek medical attention immediately are more likely to survive paralysis. During the examination, the doctor not only examines the physical but also takes several samples, such as sputum, feces, and fluid in the brain. \n\n Until now, polio was a type of disease to be wary of because there was no effective medicine to cure it. As an initial treatment, the doctor will advise the patient to drink more and will administer various medications. The drug is not intended to cure, but rather to alleviate symptoms. \n\n The type given can be in the form of antibiotics, pain relievers, and antispasmodics, which function as muscle relaxants. To treat patients who have respiratory problems, the action taken is to install a breathing apparatus. \n\n \n\n How Can Polio Be Prevented ? \n\n The impact that can be suffered by polio patients is very fatal. Therefore, taking actions to avoid and prevent the spread of the virus is very important. The problem of polio is still an issue that attracts the attention of many parties. In addition to health campaigns through the National Immunization Week (PIN), preventive measures are often carried out, namely by administering vaccines. The aim of giving the vaccine is to increase the body's immunity so that the polio virus does not attack easily. \n\n Friends of Hermina can speak with a pediatrician at the hospital about polio prevention. Hermina's closest friend or Hermina's best friend can also consult online with a hospital specialist. Hermina with the Hello Hermina app \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Importance of Immunization for Children<\/a><\/h3>
Did Friends of Hermina know that newborns need to be immunized? This is because immunization is useful for preventing infants or children from developing diseases in the future. In fact, there are some parents who are still hesitant to give immunizations to their children because they are afraid that the child will get sick after receiving the immunization, resulting in the baby or child not getting the required immunization. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines immunization as the process by which a person becomes immune or resistant to an infectious disease. Immunization, or vaccination, is one of the efforts to increase the body's immunity against a disease. Immunization is important for everyone, especially for children. Therefore, every parent is obliged to provide immunization vaccines because this has been regulated in the Regulation of the Minister of Health Number 42 of 2013. \n\n Parents need to have good knowledge about immunization and its benefits so that they are more confident in giving it to their babies or children. Until now, it has been proven that immunization saves a lot of human lives by reducing morbidity and eradicating infectious diseases that occur in the world. Here are some reasons parents need to know about the importance of immunization for their children: \n\n 1. Immunization is a child's right In Indonesia, immunization efforts have been carried out since 1970. One of the reasons why immunization is given to children is to comply with the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which has been enforced by the United Nations since September 2, 1990. This Convention on the Rights of the Child includes the rights to survival, the right to develop, the right to protection, and the right to participate in community life. So, the government and parents are obliged to seek the best health for children's growth and development. By giving immunizations to children, it means that parents have fulfilled their children's rights. \n\n 2. The Impact of Infectious Diseases is More Dangerous than the Impact of Immunization Diseases that occur from infection generally have severe and dangerous effects that can be caused, such as disability or even death. This dangerous impact can be prevented if children are given immunizations. The impact of immunization is usually only a fever; it will not be as dangerous as being exposed to the disease. \n\n 3. Immunizations are administered on a regular basis.The Ministry of Health and the Indonesian Pediatrician Association (IDI) have prepared a schedule for giving immunizations in such a way. This schedule is adjusted for the age group most affected by the disease. For example, the disease HIB (Haemophilus influenza Type B), which causes pneumonia (pneumonia) and meningitis (inflammation of the lining of the brain), is more common in the age group of less than 1 year. Therefore, the HIB immunization should be given when the baby is 2 months old and not delayed until the baby is more than 1 year old. \n\n 4. Requires Immunization Booster Based on research, levels of immunity (antibodies) that are formed in infants are better than in older children. Therefore, most immunizations are given when the baby is 6 months old. Then several types of vaccines need to be re-administered after the child is 1 year old (booster) to maintain antibody levels in the long term. \n\n 5. The Benefits of Immunization Germs live everywhere, and the possibility of children getting sick is very large. If a child is immunized to an 80 percent level, it can be protected from the effects of severe to fatal infectious diseases.It can also prevent the spread of certain diseases in the surrounding environment. \n\n There are many diseases that can be prevented by immunizing children. However, if in the area where the mother lives, the immunization coverage is low, the spread of the disease will be very fast. Children who are not immunized are at risk of becoming cases and also a source of transmission for other children. \n\n It is important for parents to expand their knowledge about immunizations for their children. Parents can also get a lot of information about immunizations and children's health by consulting doctors, especially pediatricians. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Recognize diarrhea in children and how to prevent it<\/a><\/h3>
Recognize diarrhea in children and how to prevent it \n\n Diarrhea is a condition when a person's bowel movements increase to several times a day and the stools that are passed are watery in texture. This condition is actually quite common in children. \n\n In general, the spread of diarrhea usually occurs through infections (germs of disease) such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites. It is usually spread through contaminated food or drink or direct contact with infected feces. The spread can also occur due to decreased body resistance caused by lack of breast milk intake for infants up to 2 years or more. Breast milk contains antibodies that protect babies from germs. Malnutrition or malnutrition, especially children who are malnourished will easily get diarrhea. \n\n How to deal with diarrhea in children: \n\n 1. Give breast milk more often and for longer than usual. \n\n 2. Giving ORS to prevent dehydration until diarrhea stops. \n\n 3. Provide zinc drugs which are available at pharmacies, health centers, and hospitals. Given \n\n once a day for 10 consecutive days even if the diarrhea has stopped. Zinc can reduce the \n\n severity of diarrhea, reduce the duration and prevent recurrence of diarrhea 2 to next \n\n month. \n\n 4. Provide household fluids, such as vegetables, soup, and mineral water. \n\n 5. Immediately take toddlers with diarrhea to health facilities. \n\n 6. Age-appropriate feeding: \n\n 7. Infants aged 0-6 months: only given breast milk according to the child's wishes, at least 8 \n\n times a day (morning, afternoon and evening). Do not give other food or drink other than \n\n breast milk. \n\n 8. Infants aged 6-24 months: Continue breastfeeding, start feeding \n\n Companion ASI (MP ASI) which has a soft texture such as porridge, milk, and bananas. \n\n 9. Toddlers aged 9 to 12 months: Continue breastfeeding, give MP ASI more densely and \n\n rough like team rice, rice porridge, add eggs/chicken/fish/tempe/carrots/beans green. \n\n 10. Toddlers aged 12 to 24 months: continue breastfeeding, give family food gradually \n\n according to the child's ability \n\n 11. Toddlers aged 2 years and over: give family food 3 times a day, as much as 1/3-1/2 \n\n portions eat adults. Also give nutrient-rich snacks 2x a day between times eat. \n\n It should be noted that if the patient has diarrhea for less than 14 days, the patient has acute diarrhea, and if it is more than 14 days, it is certain that the patient has chronic/persistent diarrhea. In addition, there are 3 degrees of diarrheal dehydration that are no less important to know : \n\n 1. Diarrhea Without Dehydration, the characteristics are if the toddler remains active, has the desire to drink as usual, the eyes are not sunken, and the turgor returns immediately. However, toddlers will lose fluid <5% of body weight. \n\n 2. Mild or moderate dehydration diarrhea, toddlers usually experience restlessness or fussiness, sunken eyes, increased thirst, slow return of turgor, and fluid loss of 5-10% of body weight. \n\n 3. Severe Dehydration Diarrhea, characterized by lethargy or sluggishness, sunken eyes, lazy to drink, very slow return of turgor > 2 seconds, and fluid loss > 10% of body weight. \n\n Food Suggestions for Persistent Diarrhea \n\n 1. If the child is still breastfed: give more often and longer, morning, noon and night \n\n 2. If the child is receiving milk other than breast milk, reduce the amount of milk given and increase the milk supply. Replace half of the milk with rice porridge plus tempeh, do not give sweetened condensed milk. For other foods, follow the feeding recommendations according to the age group. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

LET'S COMPLETE CHILDREN'S IMMUNIZATION IN THE NEW NORMAL TIME<\/a><\/h3>
The COVID-19 pandemic which today has infected more than 7000 people has placed a huge burden on the health system. Many of Indonesia's resources, both in the health and non-health sectors, have been diverted to handle COVID-19, including the function of hospitals and health workers to deal with COVID-19. To ensure that the health system is not burdened with diseases that can be achieved through exercise, we must all play an active role in ensuring that children under the age of five and of school age continue to receive a routine schedule according to the pandemic, during the COVID-19 pandemic.\n\nImmunization is the most effective and efficient public health effort in preventing several dangerous diseases. History records its great role in saving the world community from suffering, even death due to diseases such as smallpox, polio, tuberculosis, hepatitis B which can lead to liver cancer, diphtheria, measles, rubella and the syndrome of congenital disability due to rubella (congenital rubella). CRS), Tetanus in pregnant women and newborns, Pneumonia (lung inflammation), Meningitis, to Cervical Cancer caused by infection with the Human Papilloma Virus.\n\nThe Indonesian Pediatrician Association (IDAI) recommends that children's services continue to run according to schedule despite the Covid-19 pandemic. It is very important to give basic immunizations for infants aged 0 to 18 months while still paying attention to the following things:\n\n- Trying to arrange the arrival schedule so that the child doesn't take too long\n- if there are no contraindications, given as scheduled.\n- Provide hand sanitizer or hand washing tub with soap and running water\n- The distance between the patient waitors is 1-2 meters\n- Implementation of physical distancing, supervision of children who are able to walk so they don't go back and forth in health facilities\n- Don't leave the house for unimportant things. \n\n That is how important child immunization is in this new normal. For mothers, do not hesitate to consult a pediatrician. Let's take care of children's health by immunizing from an early age.
