Abstract

High-risk pregnancies require proper early detection to prevent complications that can harm both mother and fetus. In the Batak community in Medan Tuntungan District, there are still challenges in aligning traditional cultural practices with modern medical procedures related to high-risk pregnancy screening. This community service activity aims to increase the knowledge and awareness of pregnant women about the importance of high-risk screening based on an educational Batak cultural approach. The program was carried out on March 15, 2024 through interactive counseling methods, early detection demonstrations, and discussions on local wisdom in safe pregnancy care. The results of the evaluation showed a significant improvement in participants' understanding of pregnancy hazards and the importance of routine check-ups according to medical standards. This education is expected to encourage pregnant women to be more proactive in conducting high-risk screening, so that pregnancy complications can be identified and handled early optimally.

Abstract

Pregnant women at high risk of HIV/AIDS transmission often face severe psychosocial challenges due to negative stigma from the surrounding environment, which can ultimately hinder access to health services and prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PPIA). This community service activity aims to provide education about risk perception and deconstruct the stigma of HIV/AIDS for high-risk pregnant women and their families in Medan Tuntungan District. The program was implemented on July 16, 2024 through interactive counseling methods, educational dialogues, and counseling sessions to dissect misperceptions related to HIV transmission. The results of the evaluation showed an increase in participants' understanding of the real risk of HIV transmission and a shift in more supportive attitudes in the family environment. This education is expected to reduce stigma, improve compliance with antenatal examinations, and support efforts to effectively prevent HIV transmission in the community.

Abstract

The postpartum period and the early period of child growth are a very crucial transition phase as well as vulnerable for the health of the mother and baby. One of the medical interventions that is often carried out in the normal delivery process is an episiotomy, which is the use of the perineal area to widen the birth canal. Although medically intended, episiotomy wounds require intensive and hygienic postpartum care. Problems arise when postpartum mothers return to the home environment, where knowledge of wound self-care is often still very limited, compounded by the fear of touching the wound area as well as the lack of access to practical information. The program will be held on June 19, 2025 with interactive counseling methods and group discussions. The results of the evaluation showed that there was an improvement in the mother's skills in performing wound care independently and accelerating the detection of health risks through methods relevant to the local culture. This education is expected to help reduce the number of postpartum complications (such as wound infections) and increase the effectiveness of the maternal-child health screening system.

Abstract

Pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, is a golden period as well as a very vulnerable phase due to the process of organogenesis or the formation of fetal vital organs. In this phase, the nutritional needs of pregnant women increase dramatically to support the growth of new cells and blood volume. However, the main challenge that is often faced is the occurrence of iron deficiency anemia, which if it occurs in pregnant women with high risk categories, can trigger serious complications such as abortion, fetal growth retardation in the womb (IUGR), to the risk of life-threatening post-saline hemorrhage. This community service activity aims to provide structured education on the use of Tamarillo fruit for high-risk first trimester pregnant women at Hana Kasih Clinic. The program will be implemented on July 23, 2025 through interactive counseling methods, educational dialogues, and counseling sessions to empower pregnant women to be able to carry out independent nutrition interventions in a sustainable manner. By integrating local fruit consumption into the daily diet, it is hoped that the hemoglobin levels of pregnant women can be optimally maintained, so that the quality of the mother's health and the fetal growth and development process can be guaranteed in order to reduce maternal and infant mortality in the region.

Abstract

Anemia in pregnant women is a health problem that can increase the risk of complications during pregnancy and childbirth, as well as impaired fetal development. One non-pharmacological method to increase hemoglobin (Hb) levels is to consume natural ingredients rich in iron and vitamin C, such as tamarillo fruit. Objective: This study aims to determine the benefits of consuming tamarillo fruit on increasing hemoglobin levels in pregnant women in the second trimester at the Hanna Kasih Clinic in Medan in 2025. Methods: This study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach . The study sample consisted of 15 pregnant women in their second trimester who met the inclusion criteria. Respondents were given 200 ml of tamarillo juice per day for 30 days. Hb levels were measured before and after the intervention using a digital hemoglobinometer. Data were analyzed using a paired t-test to determine the difference in mean Hb levels before and after treatment. Results: The results of the Community Activity Implementation showed an increase in Hb levels from 10.2 g/dl to 11-11.8 g/dl after administering tamarillo juice. Statistical tests showed a p -value <0.05, which means there was a significant difference between Hb levels before and after the intervention. Conclusion: Consuming tamarillo juice significantly increases hemoglobin levels in pregnant women in the second trimester. The iron, vitamin C, and antioxidants in tamarillo play a role in aiding iron absorption and hemoglobin formation. Tamarillo fruit can be a natural alternative to prevent anemia in pregnant women.
