Abstract

Public health is one of the key aspects of sustainable development. This community service activity aims to improve public health through nutritional status assessments conducted during the Car Free Day (CFD) event in Padang City. The methods used include nutritional status measurement, nutrition education, and the promotion of healthy lifestyles. Health measurements included assessments of body weight, height, fat mass, muscle mass, blood pressure, blood sugar levels, uric acid levels, and hemoglobin levels. Education was delivered through interactive sessions and the distribution of leaflets on healthy eating patterns and clean-living behaviors. The impact of the education was evaluated qualitatively through testimonials from participants who took part in both the health check and educational sessions. Participants shared their experiences regarding changes in their dietary habits and healthy lifestyle practices after participating in the program. Several participants stated that they had begun adopting healthier lifestyles, such as paying more attention to food intake, increasing physical activity, and feeling the benefits of a fitter body. Based on these testimonials, this activity demonstrated an increase in awareness and the adoption of healthy living behaviors among the community. Therefore, interventions through health assessments and nutrition education have been proven to contribute to encouraging positive behavioral changes within the community.

Abstract

Background: Adolescent nutrition is a complex public health issue, encompassing undernutrition, overnutrition, and micronutrient deficiencies such as anemia. Nutritional imbalances during adolescence affect physical growth, brain development, academic performance, and long-term productivity. Therefore, innovative, engaging, and age-appropriate educational approaches are necessary. One such effective method is the use of educational games such as puzzles, which present nutritional messages in an interactive and enjoyable way. This study aimed to analyze the effect of the Balanced Nutrition Puzzle Game on students’ knowledge and attitudes toward balanced nutrition. Methods: A quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test control group was used. The sample consisted of 60 junior high school students selected through purposive sampling, with valid and reliable questionnaires used as instruments. Results: The results showed a significant increase in knowledge and attitude scores in the intervention group after the puzzle game was implemented (p < 0.05), whereas the control group showed no significant changes. Conclusion: These findings suggest that the Balanced Nutrition Puzzle Game is an effective educational medium for improving adolescent understanding and promoting positive attitudes toward healthy eating and lifestyle.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which primarily affects the lungs but can also involve other organs such as the kidneys, bones, brain, and lymph nodes. TB remains a significant public health concern in Indonesia, including in Pisang Village, Pauh District, which records one of the highest TB prevalence rates based on data from the Pauh Community Health Center and local government. Poor sanitation conditions and low public awareness are among the major contributing factors to the high number of TB cases in this community. This community engagement activity aimed to enhance public understanding and awareness of TB through the emotional demonstration (emo-demo) approach. This interactive method was used to effectively communicate key health messages regarding the causes, transmission mechanisms, and preventive measures of TB, while also highlighting the importance of environmental sanitation and the implementation of Clean and Healthy Living Behaviors. The results of this activity demonstrated a noticeable improvement in community knowledge and awareness related to TB symptoms, causes, transmission routes, and prevention strategies. Participants showed increased interest and understanding, indicating positive behavioral changes and greater willingness to adopt preventive practices. Therefore, the emo-demo approach proved to be an effective educational strategy for strengthening TB prevention and control efforts at the community level.

Abstract

Adolescent smoking behavior remains a significant public health issue, contributing to the increased risk of non-communicable diseases and reduced quality of life. Schools play a strategic role as a locus for educational interventions in smoking prevention. This community service activity aimed to enhance the knowledge and awareness of students at SIMA Junior High School, Padang, regarding the dangers of smoking through a school-based education program. The method employed was a participatory community-based approach involving 30 students. The program consisted of socialization, interactive counseling, and the distribution of educational media in the form of an educational video. Evaluation was conducted using pre-test and post-test to measure changes in students’ knowledge before and after the intervention. The results showed an increase in the mean knowledge score from 71.99 in the pre-test to 76.0 in the post-test. A paired t-test yielded p=0.002 (<0.05), indicating a statistically significant improvement in students’ knowledge about the dangers of smoking after the intervention. Although the distribution of the “high knowledge” category slightly decreased, the overall increase in mean scores suggests that the educational program effectively strengthened students’ understanding. In conclusion, the school-based educational program proved effective in improving students’ knowledge about the dangers of smoking. Program sustainability requires periodic updating of educational materials and active collaboration among schools, teachers, parents, and the community. Such efforts are expected to prevent the emergence of novice smokers and support the establishment of a healthy, smoke-free school environment.

Abstract

Introduction: In Indonesia, especially in urban areas, lifestyle and environmental changes contribute to a triple burden of nutritional problems among adolescents, where undernutrition (9.8%) coexists with increasing cases of overweight and obesity (8.6%). This condition reflects a growing imbalance between adolescents’ eating patterns and body perception. Objective: This study aimed to explore the relationship between body image and eating patterns among adolescents with normal, overweight, and obese nutritional status. Methods: A cross-sectional study was applied in this study and data were analyzed using the Chi-square test by comparing observed and expected frequencies. The data collected included the  nutritional status as the dependent variable, body image, socioeconomic factors, and eating patterns as independent variables. The study was conducted in two selected public high schools in Padang City, involving 1,299 population students aged 15–18 years, with a total sample of 377 respondents were selected. Data collection was conducted from August 2024 to March 2025. Results: Results showed that 33.7% of students experienced either undernutrition or overnutrition, 64.5% had poor eating behaviors, and 42.2% reported a negative body image. There were significant associations between eating patterns (p-value=0.049; POR=1.63) and body image (p-value=0.001; POR=29.2) with nutritional status among high school students in Padang City. Conclusion: Understanding the relationship between eating patterns, body image, and nutritional status is essential for developing effective school-based interventions and health promotion strategies.

Abstract

Background : Quality improvement (QI) is a practice that hospitals use to improve efficiency, clinical outcomes, employee satisfaction, and patient safety. One of the QI practices is the implementation of lean principles. Lean is a set of methods intended to eliminate waste and increase process efficiency. Lean implementation can have a significant impact on operational efficiency and effectiveness. This research is aimed at analyzing services at the RS Naili DBS Outpatient Installation using lean principles. Method : Data collection was carried out through direct observation of the outpatient service process from arrival to receiving doctor consultation services. From the observations, visualization of the service process was carried out using big picture mapping and analysis of waiting time and waste was carried out using lean principles. Apart from that, in-depth interviews were conducted with selected informants, namely from within the hospital and patients as service recipients. Result : The results of the research showed that the outpatient waiting time from the time the patient contacted the registration officer until the doctor's service was completed was 1 hour 18 minutes 50 seconds. This time still exceeds the minimum service standard set by the government, namely 60 minutes. The results of observations regarding waste, found as many as 36 types of waste spread across the queuing process, registration, polyclinic waiting room and clinic room.

Abstract

Konsumsi gula, garam, dan lemak (GGL) berlebih pada remaja dapat meningkatkan risiko penyakit tidak menular (PTM). Strategi edukasi yang menarik dan sesuai perkembangan teknologi sangat diperlukan, khususnya dalam lingkungan pembelajaran digital. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas edukasi audiovisual dalam meningkatkan pengetahuan dan memengaruhi konsumsi GGL pada remaja. Tinjauan literatur terstruktur dilakukan pada artikel tahun 2022–2025 melalui Google Scholar, PubMed, dan Garuda. Didapatkan lima studi intervensi berbasis audiovisual memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan dianalisis secara naratif. Seluruh studi menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan yang signifikan setelah intervensi audiovisual. Media video dan animasi meningkatkan pemahaman batas konsumsi GGL, serta beberapa studi menunjukkan potensi perubahan perilaku, termasuk penurunan asupan GGL dan perubahan pola makan. Format interaktif dan berbasis media sosial menunjukkan keterlibatan yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan media statis. Edukasi audiovisual efektif meningkatkan pengetahuan remaja dan berpotensi memengaruhi perilaku konsumsi GGL. Pendekatan multimedia dapat mendukung pencegahan PTM berbasis sekolah, namun diperlukan penelitian longitudinal untuk menilai dampak jangka panjang.

Abstract

Sungai Pisang, located in the Bungus Teluk Kabung District, is a coastal area with approximately 2,116 residents, most of whom earn their livelihood as fishermen. The community faces interrelated nutritional and sanitation problems, primarily due to limited waste-management facilities. Household waste and fish-processing residues are commonly burned or buried, resulting in environmental pollution and increasing the risk of infectious diseases. These conditions negatively affect the community’s nutritional status, particularly among vulnerable groups such as children under five and pregnant women. This community service program aims to strengthen community capacity in improving nutrition and sanitation through a participatory empowerment approach. The activities were carried out through preparation, socialization, and intervention. These included official meetings with local authorities, health education sessions for housewives, mothers of young children, and community health volunteers, as well as a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to develop applicable waste-management solutions. The results showed an increase in community knowledge regarding balanced nutrition and family health. In addition, residents agreed to initiate organic-waste composting and reduce the use of single-use plastics. This program integrates nutrition interventions with environmentally based sanitation improvements, emphasizing that nutritional enhancement cannot be separated from local ecological conditions. Collaboration among local government, health workers, and the community is essential to creating a sustainable healthy environment that supports comprehensive improvements in nutritional status.
