Abstract

Disaster mitigation is generally implemented to reduce losses caused by potential disasters, including both loss of life and property damage, which can significantly impact human activities and livelihoods. In Sukaraja Village, the community’s understanding of disaster response is limited to basic actions such as evacuating to higher and safer ground during floods. However, the community often faces challenges in evacuating vulnerable groups, such as women, the elderly, and children, due to the densely populated area and limited evacuation space. This service program aimed to address these challenges by conducting a comprehensive training on disaster mitigation, focusing on evacuation and first aid for flood victims by the members of the Disaster-Resilient Village Forum (Keltana). The method employed in this community service program included structured training sessions and simulations, comprising: (1) educational sessions on knowledge, attitudes, and actions required during flood emergencies, (2) hands-on training on evacuation procedures and first aid techniques for disaster mitigation, and (3) Communication, Information, and Education (CIE) activities on emergency response strategies targeted at Keltana members. The results showed a significant improvement in the participants’ understanding and skills. The training increased the knowledge level of Keltana members on flood evacuation and first aid from 55% to 93%. Additionally, the program enhanced their practical skills in evacuating flood victims and administering first aid for injuries, including fractures and bleeding. In conclusion, the disaster mitigation training program successfully strengthened the community’s capacity in flood response, contributing to improved resilience and preparedness in Sukaraja Village. The approach and outcomes of this program can serve as a model for similar high-risk areas to enhance community-based disaster mitigation efforts.

Abstract

Introduction: Patients with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy often experience pain, cognitive impairments, and changes in brainwave activity. This study evaluated the efficacy of Virtual Reality Positive Self-Talk (VR-PST) on changes in brain wave activity in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Methods: A single-blind randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted involving 92 patients with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy, who were randomly assigned to the VR-PST intervention group (n = 46) and the control group (n = 46). Participants in the VR-PST group received five intervention sessions conducted over a two-week period, consisting of structured cognitive self-talk presented in a virtual reality environment (VR-PST), while the control group received standard care. Brain wave activities in both groups were measured using the Muse 2 electroencephalographic (EEG) device before and after the intervention. Results: There were shifts in brain waves from delta to alpha waves in both groups, indicating relaxation; however, the VR-PST group showed a more dominant increase in beta waves. The VR-PST group demonstrated a trend toward greater cognitive activation; however, Fisher’s Exact Test showed that the difference between the groups was not statistically significant (p = 0.052). Conclusions: Although the difference was not statistically significant, the observed trend of increased beta-wave activity in the VR-PST group suggests a possible enhancement of cognitive activation. However, this finding should be interpreted with caution, and further studies are required to confirm this effect.
