Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and hyperuricemia are a rising health burden in Indonesia, yet rural health cadres (kader Poskesri), who act as frontline community health promoters, rarely undergo routine blood profile screening themselves. A free health screening was conducted for 13 Poskesri health cadres in Nagari Taeh Baruah on 30 July 2026. Random blood glucose, total cholesterol, and uric acid were measured using a point-of-care enzymatic stick-test analyzer with capillary blood samples. Data were analyzed descriptively (mean ± standard deviation) and classified against standard clinical thresholds. The mean random blood glucose was 120.3 ± 58.8 mg/dL, total cholesterol 198.5 ± 24.3 mg/dL, and uric acid 5.8 ± 2.3 mg/dL. One participant (7.7%) showed markedly elevated glucose consistent with diabetes, six (46.2%) had borderline-high cholesterol, and four (30.8%) had hyperuricemia. Most cadres showed normal metabolic profiles, but a notable proportion had borderline or elevated cholesterol and uric acid, highlighting the need for sustained NCD screening and lifestyle education among health cadres as role models for the wider community.
