Abstract

The partner problem from the results of the preliminary study is that the target for providing hypertension treatment services has not been achieved by 84.6%, the low number of visits to Pos Bindu PTM. The results of environmental observations showed that community behavior has the potential to cause hypertension to become increasingly uncontrolled, such as rarely doing health checks, consumption of high-salt and fast food foods, cigarette consumption, and no routine, and scheduled sports activities. Community service activities aim to provide education programs and procedures for implementing CERDIK behavior to control PTM in people with hypertension in the UPTD Sukaraya Community Health Center target area. The methods used are lectures, discussions, questions and answers, CERDIK gymnastics demonstrations, and red demonstrations. The activity was attended by 30 people with a history of hypertension treatment. The output of this activity is a modified video of CERDIK exercise with nuances of local wisdom, and a popular article in the OKU regional health bulletin. The results of the activity showed an increase in knowledge of 11.34%, and an increase in skills of 72.67% from the results of pre and post-tests in people with hypertension who became participants in the activity.

Abstract

Background: Gout arthritis is a chronic inflammatory joint disorder in older adults that causes persistent pain and limits daily functioning. Despite growing interest in non-pharmacological pain management, most available evidence comes from clinical or hospital-based settings, while evidence from community contexts in LMICs, including Indonesia, remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a warm cinnamon powder compress in reducing pain intensity among community-dwelling older adults with gout arthritis. Methods: This quasi-experimental study with a non-equivalent control group pretest–posttest design was conducted in accordance with the TREND reporting guideline at Pagar Agung Health Center, Lahat Regency. A total of 70 older adults with gout arthritis who met the inclusion criteria were recruited and allocated to an intervention group (n = 35) and a control group (n = 35). The independent variable was warm cinnamon powder compress therapy administered once daily for 15 minutes over seven consecutive days, while the dependent variable was pain intensity measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). The control group received routine care. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test for within-group comparisons and the Mann–Whitney U test for between-group differences. Results: The intervention group demonstrated a marked reduction in mean pain scores from 5.11 ± 0.82 at pretest to 2.14 ± 0.93 at posttest, representing a very large within-group effect (Cohen’s d = 3.38), while the control group showed only a minimal change from 5.03 ± 0.79 to 4.89 ± 0.88 (Cohen’s d = 0.17). Between-group comparison indicated a significantly greater reduction in pain in the intervention group than in the control group, with a large effect size (Cohen’s d = 1.54). Clinically, the intervention group predominantly shifted from moderate–severe pain to mild pain categories, indicating a meaningful improvement in pain experience. Conclusion: Warm cinnamon powder compress therapy is effective in reducing pain intensity among older adults with gout arthritis and can serve as a safe and practical complementary intervention in community healthcare settings.
