Abstract

Introduction:  Hypertension is a significant global health issue that often presents without symptoms, leaving many individuals unaware of their condition. Effective management and prevention of hypertension require increased awareness and education, particularly among the elderly population, who are at higher risk. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of health counseling using leaflets in improving hypertension knowledge among the elderly at Integrated service post (Posyandu) community association (RW) 4 Gandatapa. Method: This descriptive quantitative study employed a pre-post design. Health counseling was conducted using leaflets at  Integrated service post  (Posyandu) community association (RW) 4 Gandatapa on July 16, 2024, involving 44 elderly participants aged 65-70 years. Knowledge levels were assessed using pre-test and post-test questionnaires. The intervention included distributing leaflets and conducting a discussion session to reinforce the information provided. Result:The study observed a significant increase in participants' knowledge about hypertension, with average knowledge scores rising from 43% in the pre-test to 63% in the post-test. Conclusion: The findings suggest that health counseling using leaflets is an effective method for improving hypertension knowledge among the elderly. However, to optimize the impact, future interventions should consider additional support methods, especially for those with limited literacy or visual impairments.

Abstract

Kirinyuh leaves (Chromolaeina odorata (L.) R.M.King &; H.Rob.) contain secondary metabolites in the form of flavonoids, saponins, steiroids, tannins that can inhibit the growth of antibacterial growth. Based or its antibacterial properties, kirinyuh leaf extract can be developed into mouthwash to prevent dental plaque. The purpose of this study was to determine the physical stability test of the kirinyuh leaf ethanol extract mouthwash preparation and to determine the antibacterial activity of the kirinyuh leaf ethanol extract against Streptococcus mutans ATCC 31987 bacteria, so that a  formulation of the kirinyuh leaf ethanol extract mouthwash preparation could be made. Mouthwash is an antiseptic preparation that is used to clean the oral cavity and is used by gargling. The extraction used was remaceration method with 70% ethanol solvent, made in various extracts with concentrations of 10%, 20%, 30%. Further evaluation of the preparation includes : organoleptic test, pH test, viscosity test. The results of the One Way ANOVA analysis showed that there was no significant difference in the pH test, viscosity test with a p>0,05 value. Organoleptic test during 6 cycles of storage in a stable state during storage. The results showed that the ethanol extract of kirinyuh leaf mouthwash was able to inhibit the growth of Streptococcus mutans bacteria, namely in F1 the weak category was 2.43±0.81 mm, F2 was 10.21±3.56 mm the strong categori, F3 was 13.38±2.72 mm strong category.   Keywords : Antibacterial, Kirinyuh leaves, Mouthwash
