Abstract

Background: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a significant public health problem in Indonesia, with increasing prevalence rates influenced by various factors, including knowledge and implementation of Mosquito Nest Eradication. While good knowledge is important, it does not always translate directly to a decrease in DHF cases, necessitating the active role of housewives as agents of health behavior change within the family environment. Purpose: To determine the relationship between housewives' knowledge and efforts to eradicate mosquito nests in the Wagir Community Health Center Work Area. Methods: This quantitative correlational study used a cross-sectional design. The study population consisted of 184 housewives, with a sample size of 126 housewives drawn using consecutive sampling. The inclusion criteria included housewives from Sidorahayu Village aged 26-45 years. The instrument used was a questionnaire on knowledge and prevention of mosquito nest eradication. Data analysis used the Spearman rank test. Results: There is a relationship between the knowledge of housewives and efforts to eradicate mosquito nests in the Wagir Health Center Working Area with a p value = 0.000 (p <0.05) accompanied by an r value = 0.704 where the correlation coefficient value shows a strong and positive relationship. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between housewives' knowledge and mosquito nest eradication efforts in the Wagir Community Health Center work area. Higher housewives' knowledge tends to be followed by better implementation of mosquito nest eradication efforts.

Abstract

Introduction: Knee joint stiffness is a common musculoskeletal problem among older adults. Age-related physiological changes lead to a decline in physical function and mobility, resulting in a reduced range of motion in the joints. This study aimed to compare knee joint stiffness before and after the implementation of static flexibility training in older adults. Methods: This quantitative experimental study employed a one group pretest–posttest design. A total of 18 older adults experiencing knee joint stiffness at Betheseda Kasih Service Nursing Home were recruited using simple random sampling. Knee joint stiffness was measured using a goniometer and an observation sheet. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Static flexibility training was conducted six times over a two-week period (three sessions per week), with each session lasting approximately 15 minutes. Each session consisted of five movements performed for 10–20 repetitions. Results: Prior to the intervention, the mean degree of knee joint stiffness was 75° (classified as stiff). Following the static flexibility training, the mean degree decreased to 48.89°, indicating a return to normal joint mobility. The Wilcoxon test showed a statistically significant effect of static flexibility training on reducing knee joint stiffness (p = .000 < 0.001). Conclusion: Static flexibility training effective for improving joint mobility in older adults as a non-pharmacological approach. It is recommended to compare static and dynamic flexibility training effectiveness reducing knee joint stiffness among older adults in further study.
