Abstract

Routine health checks are essential strategies for the early detection of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in communities. This study was conducted in Dusun Mangir Tengah, Sendangsari, Pajangan, Bantul Regency, involving 68 residents aged <20 years (15), 21–40 years (25), and >40 years (28). The examination included blood pressure, blood glucose, uric acid, and cholesterol, accompanied by brief education on healthy lifestyle management. Results indicate that blood pressure increases with age, with residents >40 years classified as hypertensive or prehypertensive. Most participants had normal blood glucose and uric acid levels, though some adults and elderly approached high thresholds. Cholesterol levels were elevated in older adults, indicating potential risks of heart disease and hypertension. These findings emphasize the importance of community-based health screening as a tool for early detection, education, and preventive intervention. Regular educational programs, periodic screenings, and health promotion activities are recommended to enhance community awareness and enable effective NCD risk management

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology has made digital media a primary source of health information for the public. However, easy access to information also increases the risk of health misinformation, which may negatively affect health-related decision making. This activity aimed to improve community digital health literacy to prevent health misinformation through an educative–participatory approach. A pre-experimental design with a one group pre-test and post-test was applied. The intervention consisted of interactive education sessions, group discussions, and case studies using common health information found on social media platforms. The results indicated improvements in participants’ knowledge, critical attitudes, and ability to evaluate the credibility of digital health information. Participants became more cautious and selective in accepting and sharing health-related content. These findings suggest that strengthening digital health literacy is an effective promotive and preventive strategy to address health misinformation challenges in the digital era.
