Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. Health promotion plays a pivotal role in enhancing patient knowledge and self-management behaviors. Among various educational tools, posters are considered effective media due to their ability to convey complex health messages visually and concisely. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of poster-based health promotion interventions in reducing blood glucose levels among patients with Diabetes Mellitus at the Bandar Khalifah Public Health Center. This research employed a quantitative method utilizing a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. A sample of 52 respondents was selected using a random sampling technique. Data were analyzed using the Paired Sample t-test to determine the statistical significance of the intervention. The statistical analysis revealed a significant difference in blood glucose levels before and after the intervention, with a p-value of 0.006 (p < 0.05). These findings indicate that the implementation of visual health education significantly contributed to the reduction of blood glucose levels among the respondents. It is concluded that poster-based media is an effective tool for supporting glycemic control in patients with Diabetes Mellitus. Therefore, it is recommended that healthcare providers utilize and develop diverse visual health promotion media regularly to sustain public awareness and foster long-term healthy behaviors.

Abstract

prakonsepsi melalui edukasi, skrining faktor risiko, dan tindak lanjut dini terhadap temuan kesehatan. Masa sebelum kehamilan merupakan jendela intervensi yang penting karena banyak faktor yang memengaruhi luaran maternal dan neonatal sudah ada sebelum konsepsi terjadi, seperti anemia, hipertensi, kelebihan berat badan, gangguan glukosa, perilaku gizi yang kurang baik, serta keterlambatan mengonsumsi asam folat. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kesiapan catin dalam mewujudkan kehamilan sehat melalui edukasi kesehatan reproduksi dan deteksi dini. Metode yang digunakan ialah pendekatan deskriptif dengan rangkaian pretest, penyuluhan, skrining kesehatan, konseling singkat, dan posttest pada 50 calon pengantin yang terdaftar di wilayah kerja puskesmas. Materi edukasi menekankan gizi prakonsepsi, suplementasi asam folat, pencegahan anemia, pengendalian penyakit kronis, serta tanda bahaya kehamilan. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan pengetahuan baik peserta meningkat dari 46% menjadi 81% setelah intervensi. Skrining juga menemukan 18% peserta mengalami anemia ringan, 10% memiliki IMT ?25 kg/m², 8% mempunyai tekanan darah ?140/90 mmHg, dan 6% memiliki gula darah sewaktu ?200 mg/dL yang memerlukan evaluasi lanjutan. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa edukasi dan skrining prakonsepsi efektif sebagai strategi promotif dan preventif untuk mengidentifikasi faktor risiko sebelum kehamilan. Integrasi program kesiapan catin ke pelayanan primer perlu diperkuat agar pencegahan komplikasi kehamilan dapat dilakukan lebih dini dan lebih sistematis.

Abstract

Anemia pada ibu hamil masih menjadi masalah kesehatan yang penting karena berhubungan dengan peningkatan risiko kelelahan, perdarahan, kelahiran prematur, dan berat badan lahir rendah. Secara global, anemia masih memengaruhi sekitar 37% ibu hamil, sedangkan di Indonesia prevalensi anemia pada ibu hamil. Selain suplementasi tablet tambah darah, diperlukan inovasi pangan lokal yang praktis dan mudah diterima untuk mendukung pencegahan anemia. Biwa (Eriobotrya japonica) memiliki kandungan mineral, vitamin C, karotenoid, dan senyawa fenolik sehingga berpotensi dikembangkan menjadi pangan fungsional. Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan ibu hamil tentang pencegahan anemia sekaligus mengenalkan pengolahan biwa menjadi biskuit sebagai pangan selingan pendukung. Metode kegiatan meliputi edukasi, demonstrasi pembuatan biskuit biwa, diskusi gizi kehamilan, serta evaluasi pre-test dan post-test. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan pemahaman peserta mengenai anemia, dan pemanfaatan pangan local biwa. Pengembangan biskuit biwa layak dipertimbangkan sebagai inovasi pangan pendamping yang praktis, mudah diterima, dan dapat diintegrasikan dengan edukasi gizi serta konsumsi tablet tambah darah pada ibu hamil.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension in pregnancy needs to beware out because it can progress to more severe conditions, namely preeclampsia and eclampsia, thereby endangering the mother and the unborn baby. Risk factors in Hypertension in pregnancy are as age, education, occupation, parity, gestational age, economic factors, personal and family history of hypertension, obesity and activity/exercise.Objective: This study aims to determine the risk factors for Hypertension in pregnancy in Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra.Method: This study method used analytic observational with a cross sectional design. The study subjects were pregnant women at Public Health Center of Deli Serdang Regency who were considered the inclusion criteria and were selected as study subjects. The sampling technique by means of random sampling amounted to 164. Univariate analysis used to get an overview of the frequency distribution and percentage of the variables to be studied. Bivariate analysis used to determine the relationship between the independent variable and the dependent variable. The statistical test was Chi-Square with CI 95%.  If p < 0.05. Multivariate analysis with logistic regression statistical tests to determine the influence of the independent variables on the dependent variable. Independent variables with p value <0.25 were included in the multiple logistic regression test model and selected using the enter method. The strength of the influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable is the Exp value (ß).Result: The results of the study proved the results of Multivariate analysis, can be synthesized that the risk factors for pregnancy hypertension were influenced by factors: education (p=0.045), parity (p=0.047), gestational age (0p=0.040), personal history of hypertension (p=0.013), history family (p=0.049), and obesity (p=0.016). While the factors of age, occupation, economy and activity/exercise have no effect on risk factors for hypertension in pregnancy. Based on Exp value (B), the most influential factor was personal history of hypertension (p=0.013). This is indicated by the Exp value (B) = 2.710 which is in the interval 1.234 – 5.953, followed by obesity (p=0.016) with the Exp value (= 2.612) which is in the interval 1.192 – 5.725.
