Abstract

Congenital hypothyroid screening coverage in Indonesia remains low (2.3%), partly due to limited effective health promotion and inadequate use of educational media, leading to low maternal participation. Strengthening health promotion through appropriate media and optimizing the role of health cadres are essential to improving mothers’ perceived benefits, reducing perceived barriers, and enhancing self-efficacy for screening. This study aimed to analyze the effect of education delivered through counseling cards by health cadres on mothers' perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and self-efficacy in conducting congenital hypothyroid screening. A quasi-experimental pre–post test design was conducted in Tasikmalaya City, involving 41 third-trimester pregnant women selected via quota sampling from 20 primary health center service areas. Trained cadres provided education using counseling cards. Data were collected before and after the intervention using validated questionnaires measuring perceived benefit, perceived barrier, and self-efficacy. Data analysis showed significant improvements in all variables after the intervention (p < 0.05). In conclusion, counseling card–based education is effective in improving mothers’ perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and self-efficacy toward congenital hypothyroid screening. It is recommended that this approach be integrated into routine maternal health promotion and scaled up through community health cadres to enhance screening uptake and support early detection at the population level.

Abstract

Background: Adolescence is a vulnerable period, which is a period of physical (hormonal, primary, and secondary sexual state) and psychological (emotions, social relationships, and sexual behavior) with great curiosity. Both anemia in adolescents and early marriage are the main causes of stunting in babies. Adolescents who are anemic will result in anemia in pregnancy, either mothers with anemia during adolescence, or adolescents who experience unwanted pregnancy in a state of anemia (early marriage). Unlike the previous six applications, SEJATI was developed for adolescent boys and girls, providing a consultation page that is more developed than existing applications.Objectives: The objective of this study is to develop and assess the feasibility of SEJATI, a health promotion application for adolescents, using the SDLC prototype approach to provide improved consultation features and support adolescent healthMethods: This research method uses a qualitative method of SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) system development, with a prototype approach, through seven stages of development, namely needs analysis, prototyping, prototype evaluation, system coding, system testing, system evaluation, and using the system.Results: SEJATI is worthy of being used as a health promotion medium for adolescents, with the results of material feasibility >75% both from the material, language, display and increasing motivation to read.Conclusion: The development of health promotion media using SDLC allows each prototype to be continued and developed so that it can be used optimally and as needed. SEJATI is developed with an SDLC approach, with 7 development steps with the assessment of 2 experts and 5 users as a feasibility test in a small scope. The test results are used as a refinement of SEJATI so that the final prototype can be tested for effectiveness.
