Abstract

Anak-anak termasuk dalam kelompok yang rentan terhadap polusi udara yang berpotensi menyebabkan gangguan pernapasan, termasuk asma. Edukasi sejak dini penting untuk mengenalkan asma dan menumbuhkan kesadaran menjaga kesehatan paru. Tim Pengabdi Fakultas Kedokteran dan Ilmu Kesehatan, Universitas Katolik Indonesia Atma Jaya (FKIK-UAJ) terlibat dalam acara Science Day 2025 di Kota Bandung untuk melaksanakan pengabdian masyarakat. Kegiatan bertujuan untuk mengenalkan asma melalui edukasi interaktif dan penilaian fungsi paru anak sekolah dasar (SD). Aktivitas meliputi pemutaran video edukasi, pengisian kuesioner pengetahuan, dan penentuan indikasi obstruksi paru atau peak expiratory flow (PEF) menggunakan peak flow meter (PFM). Hasil kuesioner menunjukkan sebesar 81,4% dari 43 siswa memperoleh nilai sempurna, menandakan siswa dapat menerima materi yang disampaikan melalui media video dengan baik. Sedangkan pengukuran PEF pada 48 siswa menunjukkan sebagian besar siswa (56,3%) berada di zona kuning yang mengindikasikan adanya penyempitan saluran napas ringan hingga sedang yang perlu diperhatikan. Secara spesifik, 8 anak perlu memperhatikan kesehatan paru mereka dikarenakan nilai PEF yang mengindikasikan adanya obstruksi paru yang berat. Analisis statistik tidak menunjukkan perbedaan signifikan antara kategori PEF berdasarkan jenis kelamin (p=0,285) maupun usia (p=0,133), menandakan semua anak berisiko sama terhadap asma. Akhirnya, edukasi serta tindakan preventif sejak dini perlu ditekankan untuk menjaga kesehatan pernapasan anak-anak.

Abstract

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted the community. The Indonesian government has implemented health protocols to control COVID-19 transmission. Knowledge and attitude affect the compliance level, which plays an important role in the success of health protocol implementation. This study aims to evaluate the knowledge, attitude, and compliance towards COVID-19 control protocols in Indonesia, as well as factors that influence the knowledge. The findings can be used in formulating a strategy to reduce COVID-19 transmission or other infectious diseases in Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional study utilizing a purposive snowball sampling method was performed by distributing a Google form questionnaire through social media from June to August 2021. The target population was all Indonesians aged ≥17 years old who were present in Indonesia during the pandemic and had access to the questionnaire. Incomplete questionnaires were excluded. The data were analyzed descriptively and statistically using the Chi-square or Fisher’s exact test. Results: Out of 713 respondents who met the study criteria, 95% had adequate knowledge, 87% exhibited a positive attitude, and 79.7% adhered to health protocols with high compliance. Knowledge significantly influenced attitude to COVID-19 (p<0.001). Additionally, sufficient knowledge (p<0,001; OR 9.19, 95% CI 4.47-18.88) and positive attitudes (p<0,001; OR 19.18; 95% CI 11.44-32.16) showed significant correlation with compliance. Age (p<0.001), education level (p<0.001), experience (p=0.018), and duration of social media usage (p=0.004) were significantly associated with knowledge. Conclusion: The Indonesian community generally has adequate knowledge and a positive attitude toward COVID-19. This could significantly improve compliance to health protocols.

Abstract

Allergies represent a chronic health concern among schoolchildren in Indonesia. The disorder is increasing in number but often underdiagnosed, particularly in semi-rural areas facing limited access to health services. This community service sought to facilitate access to initial allergy screening and increase awareness of the allergic status of elementary schoolchildren in the semi-rural area of Muaragembong, Bekasi. Allergy screening was conducted using the Skin Prick Test (SPT) method to detect sensitization to house dust mite (HDM) allergens Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Derp) and D. farinae (Derf) in 98 participants aged 6–13 years. Subsequent data analysis and interpretation aimed to enhance health awareness. The results indicated that the total prevalence of HDM sensitization reached 24.5%, with 7.1% of them sensitized to both allergens. This finding highlights the critical nature of the allergy issue and the need for its proactive intervention. Direct discourse about this discovery with parents/guardians and local healthcare services is pivotal to raise their awareness. Future efforts should prioritize the development of HDM avoidance protocols that require active parental participation in routine household cleaning as a community-based solution. Additionally, establishing formal referral networks to local health facilities, governments, and other policymakers is essential for ensuring ongoing allergy management.
