Abstract

Introduction: Hallux valgus is a deformity of the first toe characterized by outward bending due to a valgus position at the metatarsophalangeal joint. This deformity can cause pain and interfere with daily activities, especially among working women. To determine the difference in the effects of Strengthening on bosu and Activity-Based Exercises on reducing pain caused by hallux valgus in working women in Bulakrejo Village. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental two-group with a pre-test and post-test design. The sample consisted of 50 subjects divided into two intervention groups with randomization. Pain was measured using the Visual Analog and Numeric Rating Scale (VANRS). Both interventions were conducted for four weeks, three times per week. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test to examine the effect of each intervention and the Mann-Whitney test to compare differences between groups. Results: Strengthening on bosu significantly reduced pain (p=0.001; CI=95%) and activity-based exercise also significantly reduced pain (p=0.001; CI=95%) in working woman with hallux valgus. However, there was a significant difference between the groups (p=0.014), with a greater effect on strengthening on bosu. Conclusion: Both methods are effective in reducing pain, but there is a difference in impact between the two, strengthening on bosu has more effect than activity-based exercise.

Abstract

Background: Elderly individuals are inherently vulnerable, facing a decline in physical and cognitive functions that significantly impacts their quality of life (QoL). QoL is a vital, multidimensional concept influenced by physical health, psychological state, independence, social relationships, personal beliefs, and environment. A good QoL enables the elderly to enjoy life, maintain independence, and feel respected. However, disaster conditions, such as floods, are high-risk, unexpected events that drastically affect QoL by causing loss, physical injury, and psychological trauma. Songgorunggi Village, Sukoharjo, Central Java, is a known flood-prone area that suffered significant impact in 2024. Despite this, some elderly residents have demonstrated adaptive and resilient coping mechanisms. The purpose of this study was to describe the quality of life of the elderly in this disaster-prone region. The method employed a descriptive analytical research design utilizing the established WHOQOL quality of life questionnaire. The results indicated that the majority of the elderly participants in the Songgorunggi area were female, and a significant percentage—65.5%—reported a poor quality of life. In conclusion, the QoL of the elderly residing in the disaster-prone area of Songgorunggi village was categorized across both the good and poor spectrums, with a substantial majority falling into the poor category following the disaster

Abstract

Stroke merupakan salah satu penyebab utama kematian dan kecacatan, khususnya pada kelompok lanjut usia. Rendahnya pengetahuan lansia tentang faktor risiko dan gejala awal stroke dapat memperburuk dampaknya. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan lansia mengenai pencegahan stroke melalui edukasi langsung di Posyandu Menur XXI, Desa Gulon. Metode yang digunakan meliputi penyuluhan, pre-test dan post-test, serta pemeriksaan tekanan darah. Sebanyak 35 peserta lansia mengikuti kegiatan ini. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan skor pengetahuan dari rata-rata 52% pada pre-test menjadi 88% pada post-test, menunjukkan peningkatan sebesar 36%. Selain itu, sekitar 40% peserta memiliki tekanan darah ≥140/90 mmHg, yang mengindikasikan perlunya pemantauan lebih lanjut. Edukasi yang interaktif dan partisipatif terbukti efektif meningkatkan pemahaman lansia mengenai pencegahan stroke. Kegiatan ini juga memperkuat peran posyandu sebagai pusat edukasi kesehatan berbasis komunitas.
