Introduction: Bleeding is the main cause of 50%-60% morbidity and
mortality in the postpartum period due to imperfect myometrial
contraction. Postpartum exercise is one of the actions of maximizing
uterine contractions. It accelerates uterine involution. Technology
development is very fast today, and improvement of Android-based
postpartum applications that are applicable, educative, and informative is
needed. This study aims to develop a postpartum maternal exercise
(SIMPOR) application for postpartum mothers using Android and carry out
tests to obtain an overview of satisfaction with the SIMPOR application.
Methods: This study used a Research and Development (R&D) method with
152 respondents taken using proportional stratified random sampling.
Data analysis used Chi-square with univariate and bivariate analysis.
Results: The majority of participants were aged 20-40 years old (98%), the
majority had higher education (59.9%), most of the respondents were
housewives (65.8%), had more than one toddler (77.6%), and the average
age of toddler was less than 2 years old (84.2%). Most respondents'
satisfaction with the SIMPOR application was very satisfied (88.16%); 3)
There was a relationship between the mother's work, parity, and the age
of the youngest child on the satisfaction of using the SIMPOR application
with a p-value<0.05.
Conclusion: Participants were very satisfied with SIMPOR application.
Based on that result, hopefully, postpartum mothers can use this
application as postpartum exercise guidance and to monitor their
involution process during the postpartum period.
