Abstract

Background: In Indonesia, the prevalence of stunting remains a pressing issue, with rates still considerably high and far from achieving the national target of 14%. One of the critical strategies in addressing this problem is providing adequate education and information to brides-to-be (Catin) regarding pregnancy planning and childcare as a preventive measure against stunting. This study aims to analyze the impact of stunting prevention health counseling using animated video media on improving the knowledge of brides-to-be. Methods: The study involved 60 brides-to-be attending counseling sessions at the BKKBN KB Counseling Center in Rajabasa District, South Lampung Regency. A pre-test and post-test design was utilized to measure changes in knowledge levels. Results: The results showed that prior to the intervention, 25 participants (41.7%) demonstrated good knowledge about stunting prevention. Following the counseling sessions, this number increased significantly to 58 participants (96.7%). Statistical analysis revealed a p-value of 0.0001 (p < 0.05), confirming a significant effect of the intervention. Conclusions: The study highlights the effectiveness of animated video media in delivering health education due to its ability to present information in an engaging, visual, and emotional format. This approach not only enhances comprehension but also sustains interest, making it a valuable tool for increasing awareness and knowledge about stunting prevention among brides-to-be. Strengthening such initiatives can contribute significantly to achieving the national stunting reduction target in Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the infectious diseases that has become a global health challenge, including in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the TB control program at the Kedaton Health Center, Bandar Lampung City, using the Input-Process-Output approach. Methods: The data used consisted of primary data, such as in-depth interviews and observations, as well as secondary data from the TB program achievement report for the last three years (2022–2024). Results: The results of the analysis show significant fluctuations in the achievement of the target, with case detection coverage decreasing from 91.76% in 2023 to 40.78% in 2024. The main inhibiting factors include limited human resources, low public awareness, lack of supporting facilities, and suboptimal program management structure. Health workers who concurrently work and the number of tracking cadres is minimal, reducing the effectiveness of case tracking. In addition, social stigma against TB is an obstacle in early detection and treatment. Conclusion: To overcome this obstacle, it is recommended to strengthen human resources, optimize facilities such as transportation and diagnostic tools, and improve public education through a community-based approach. The implementation of this strategy is expected to increase the effectiveness of the TB program at the Kedaton Health Center, support the achievement of national targets, and contribute to global efforts to reduce the burden of TB disease.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension, often referred to as a “silent killer,” is a major health problem because it frequently presents without symptoms. Poor adherence to antihypertensive treatment can lead to uncontrolled blood pressure, resulting in complications and damage to vital organs. This study aimed to identify factors associated with treatment compliance among hypertension patients in Pesisir Barat Regency in 2025. Methods: This quantitative research employed a cross-sectional design with data collected through questionnaires. The study involved hypertension patients aged 45–70 years and was conducted from February 20 to March 22, 2025. Data included demographic characteristics and factors related to treatment compliance. Bivariate analysis was conducted using the chi-square test, while multivariate analysis was performed using multiple logistic regression. Results: The duration of hypertension was not significantly associated with treatment compliance (p = 0.080). In contrast, significant associations were found with knowledge about hypertension (p = 0.000), motivation to seek treatment (p = 0.000), family support (p = 0.002), role of health workers (p = 0.000), accessibility of health services (p = 0.001), family history of hypertension (p = 0.008), and treatment history (p = 0.005). Conclusion: Several factors were identified as significantly influencing treatment compliance, with the role of health workers emerging as the most dominant factor. Strengthening the role of health workers, alongside family-based interventions and improved access to health services, is recommended to enhance treatment compliance among hypertension patients.

Abstract

Background: The Chronic Disease Management Program is an integrated proactive health service involving patients, health facilities, and BPJS Kesehatan to improve care for individuals with chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to analyze factors influencing the utilization of Prolanis among T2DM patients in West Pesisir Regency. Methods: This quantitative study employed a cross-sectional design with 149 respondents selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected between February and March 2025 and analyzed using Chi-square tests and multivariate logistic regression. Results: Family support (p = 0.000), illness perception (p = 0.000), perceived needs (p = 0.014), cross-sector support (p = 0.017), and health facility availability (p = 0.004) were significantly associated with Prolanis utilization. Among these, family support was the most dominant factor (OR = 10.26), indicating that patients with low family support were over 10 times more likely to show low program utilization compared to those with strong family support. Conclusion: Family support is the key determinant of Prolanis utilization among T2DM patients. Strengthening family involvement may enhance participation in chronic disease management programs.
