Abstract

The Healthy Indonesia Program with Family Approach (PIS-PK) is a primary initiative enforced by the current government to enhance the quality of family life and public health. In this context, the assessment of the Healthy Family Index (IKS) is essential for implementing appropriate interventions and efforts to prevent chronic diseases at the family level. Measurement indicators of IKS include healthy, pre-healthy, and unhealthy family categories. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze IKS based on PIS-PK in Jeneponto Regency, South Sulawesi in Indonesia. A quantitative design with an analytical survey was used to measure IKS across the entire family population in the Jeneponto Regency Health Center working area, totaling 1,321 households. The total sampling method was applied, and data from 12 healthy family indicators were evaluated following the IKS formula. The results showed that the average IKS value ranged from 0.59 to 0.77, representing unhealthy, pre-healthy, and healthy family, which constituted 12%, 54.35%, and 33.5% of the examined population, respectively. High numbers of family fell in the pre-healthy and unhealthy categories due to limited participation in family planning program (55.11%), non-utilization of official facilities for childbirth (11.65%), lack of exclusive breastfeeding practices over 7–23 months (10.14%), and absence of weight monitoring at Posyandu (5.59%). Consequently, integrated efforts and cross-sectoral engagement are crucial for improving IKS status.

Abstract

Wolbachia is a bacterium that generally occurs naturally in 50% of insect species, lives in insect cells, and is passed from one generation to the next through insect eggs. Wolbachia in the mosquito's body can inhibit the replication of the Dengue virus or other viruses. Based on the Decree of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia Number 1341 concerning the Implementation of the Pilot Project for the Implementation of Wolbachia as a Dengue Management Innovation, the application of this technology was carried out in five cities, namely Semarang City, West Jakarta, Bandung City, Kupang City, and Bontang City. The effectiveness of Wolbachia itself has been proven and researched since 2011, when it was conducted in Yogyakarta. As a result, Wolbachia was proven to reduce dengue fever cases by up to 77% and reduce the proportion of hospital admissions by 86%. This method of spreading Wolbachia mosquitoes in several cities will reduce local transmission of infection in those areas. This reduction in local transmission of dengue infection occurs both in the rainy and dry seasons. Scientifically, the success of the Wolbachia method is apparent, but the controversy is due to confused information circulating, giving rise to concern among the public. Vector control using Wolbachia is an alternative disease control method that uses mosquito vectors and is quite effective. However, the application of Wolbachia in the community must be monitored continuously to determine its impact on humans, local mosquitoes, and the ecosystem.

Abstract

Previous studies on Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) prevention have often emphasized knowledge dissemination and community participation without directly linking these behavioral interventions to measurable entomological outcomes. There remains a gap in evidence regarding the integration of self-awareness strategies with vector surveillance indicators such as the Container Index (CI) and the Free Larvae Index (ABJ). This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a community-based self-awareness survey combined with ovitrap training in controlling mosquito breeding as a preventive measure against DHF in Bulusan Village, Semarang City. This descriptive observational experimental study involved households selected through incidental sampling during routine Mosquito Nest Eradication (PSN) activities. Participants received training on installing simple ovitraps made from various household materials, which were monitored over one to two weeks. Entomological outcomes were assessed using CI and ABJ, supported by environmental observations and household interviews. The results revealed that all ovitrap types successfully detected mosquito larvae, with mineral water containers showing the highest Container Index (12.5%). This intervention led to an increase in ABJ, indicating improved mosquito control practices. The integration of behavioral self-awareness tools with low-cost entomological surveillance offers a promising model for community empowerment in DHF prevention. These findings suggest that collaborative efforts between communities and local health stakeholders can strengthen sustainable and environmentally friendly vector control strategies, particularly in endemic urban settings.
