Abstract

Background: Based on Indonesian Health Survey, Central Kalimantan has the highest prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia (40.7%). A similar situation occurs in Pahandut Seberang, In 2024, hypertension among top three most common diseases alongside respiratory tract infections and scabies, with 200, 290, and 190 cases out of 1,831 residents. The high incidence rate is influenced by excessive salt consumption, smoking, lack of physical activity, and geographical conditions prone to flooding. Recently, community has mostly used conventional drugs that cause side effects, while small number have tried herbal medicines, but their processing has not been appropriate. Method: To address these issues, our team implemented community service program consisting of education on hypertension, ISPA, and scabies, training on innovative herbal products, and physical exercise guidance (aerobic exercises, elderly exercises, and yoga) by involve of professional instructors. Results: The post-test results showed an increase in the cadres' understanding of educational material. Participants were also able to independently practice processing herbal plants into useful products (herbal tea, liquid soap, aromatherapy candles, and herbal creams) and demonstrate the physical exercises they had been taught. The community showed high enthusiasm, accompanied by appreciation and gratitude for the activities. In addition, the community service team teach cadres in obtaining PIRT (Traditional Food Product Registration) to support the sustainability of herbal products. Conclusion: The program successfully improved the knowledge, skills, and independence of cadres in processing herbs and performing physical exercises, thereby becoming strategic to prevent and reduce the incidence of communicable and non-communicable diseases in Pahandut Seberang

Abstract

The combination of red betel (Piper crocatum) and green betel (Piper betle L.) leaves is believed to act synergistically in enhancing wound healing. Transdermal patches offer advantages over conventional topical forms due to their sustained drug release, ease of application, and prolonged therapeutic effect. This study evaluated the histopathological effects of a combination patch containing betel leaf extracts for incision wound treatment in Wistar rats. The studies used an true experimental post-test-only control group design, five groups were tested: a blank patch (K−), a povidone-iodine patch (K+), and combination extract patches at concentrations of 7.5% (K1), 15% (K2), and 30% (K3), applied over 14 days with six animals per group. Patch characteristics were assessed through organoleptic tests, thickness, weight uniformity, folding endurance, and pH, while wound healing was evaluated through histological analysis of fibroblast cell counts and collagen density. Statistical analysis was conducted using the Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Mann-Whitney post-hoc tests. The 30% combination patch (K3) showed the most significant healing effect, with fibroblast counts exceeding 50 cells and dense collagen formation scoring +3. These results indicate that a transdermal patch combining Piper crocatum and Piper betle L. extracts effectively promotes wound healing by enhancing fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthesis.
