Abstract

Anemia is a common health problem worldwide, particularly among adolescent girls. This group is at high risk of anemia due to menstruation during adolescence, which leads to blood loss. Additionally, the increased need for iron in adolescent girls contributes to their vulnerability to anemia. Education about anemia and its prevention, as well as supplementation with iron tablets, is one solution to prevent and reduce the prevalence of anemia in females. Pesisir Selatan, a district in West Sumatra Province, recorded an increase in anemia prevalence in 2019. Based on this, it is necessary to provide education on anemia and its prevention to adolescent girls in the region. This counseling activity aimed to improve the knowledge and attitudes of adolescent girls regarding anemia. The activity consisted of pre-tests, counseling sessions, and post-tests. Counseling was conducted using lecture methods and interactive discussions with participants. Based on the evaluation of pre-test and post-test results, it was found that the counseling method was effective in increasing participants' knowledge. This was evidenced by a significant increase in participants' knowledge about anemia (p=0.004). The number of participants with good knowledge increased from 3 individuals (13.6%) to 7 individuals (31.8%), and none of the participants had poor knowledge after the counseling session. However, it was found that the counseling method did not significantly improve participants' attitudes towards anemia. In conclusion, although it did not affect participants' attitudes, the counseling method effectively enhanced their knowledge about anemia and is expected to help prevent anemia among adolescent girls

Abstract

Tuberkulosis (TB) adalah penyakit menular yang masih menjadi masalah kesehatan global. Penyakit ini dapat ditemukan di semua usia termasuk anak. Indonesia menduduki peringkat kedua kasus TB terbanyak di dunia dengan perkiraan  1.060.000 kasus TB, dan sebanyak 110.881 kasus anak usia < 15 th pada tahun 2022. Kegiatan skrining sangat berguna untuk mendeteksi kasus TB secara dini serta mengurangi masalah penularan infeksi TB. Tujuan pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah untuk mendeteksi penularan TB anak terutama di wilayah panti asuhan Ashabil Rayan dengan sasaran seluruh anak yang bertempat tinggal di panti asuhan ashabil rayan dengan usia 5-14 tahun. Mengingat tingginya resiko penularan TB pada anak di asrama,  maka dilakukanlah penyuluhan serta skrining TB pada anak di wilayah panti asuhan Ashabil Rayan agar penyakit tuberkulosis dapat terdeteksi dan teratasi sejak dini.
