Abstract
ABSTRACT
Sleep is a vital physiological need for the growth and development of infants aged 0-6 months, yet the prevalence of sleep disorders in Indonesia remains high at 44.2%. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of baby massage in improving infant sleep quality at the Merdeka Public Health Center, Karo Regency. This experimental study utilized a pre-test and post-test approach with 32 infant respondents selected through purposive sampling. Sleep quality was measured using questionnaires before and after the intervention. Bivariate data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The results showed that prior to the intervention, the majorityof infants had "Fair" sleep quality (53.1%). After receiving baby massage, there was a significant improvement, with the majority (75%) achieving "Good" sleep quality. The Wilcoxon test yielded a p-value of 0.001 (p < 0.05), leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis (Ho). In conclusion, tactile stimulation through baby massage is significantly effective in enhancing the sleep quality of infants aged 0-6 months at the study site. The massage stimulates the nervous system to provide relaxation and boost sleep-regulating hormones. Midwives are encouraged to provide regular education on infant massage techniques to parents to optimize child development.
