Abstract

A mother's knowledge of caring for young children is influenced by information. Information can provide direct knowledge gains that contribute to behavioral change, including the use of complementary therapies such as acupressure. Mothers with young children at the primary service integration cadres “Cut Muti”,  in Bendogerit Village, Blitar City, are a strategic group for empowerment because they play a central role in daily childcare. This study uses a one-group pretest-posttest pre-experimental design. The population consisted of 40 mothers of children under five who were registered at the the primary service integration cadres “Cut Muti”, using a total sampling technique. Data was collected using a questionnaire that measured mothers' knowledge of acupressure for managing coughs and colds in toddlers. The intervention consisted of health education thru lectures and counseling supported by leaflets, delivered individually, and conducted in a single 25-minute session. The data was analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. Statistical analysis shows a significant increase in mothers' knowledge after the intervention, with a p-value of 0.000 (p<0.05). This finding indicates a significant difference in knowledge levels before and after health education about acupressure therapy. Health education about acupressure effectively improves mothers' knowledge and is expected to support independent and correct home management of coughs and colds in toddlers. Future community service initiatives are recommended to expand participant coverage and strengthen community-based empowerment programs to sustainably reduce respiratory complaints in children under five in Indonesia.

Abstract

Gout arthritis is one of the health problems commonly experienced by the elderly and can cause joint pain and limited activity if not managed properly. Lack of knowledge about gout arthritis management is a factor that can worsen the condition. Therefore, education about gout arthritis management and ergonomic exercise is needed as a non-pharmacological management effort that can be done independently. The purpose of this community service program was to increase the knowledge of the elderly exercise group in managing gout arthritis through health education and demonstrations of ergonomic exercises as a promotive and preventive measure. The method used was a lecture providing education on gout arthritis management and ergonomic exercises using leaflets and demonstrations of ergonomic exercises. The target of the activity was members of the elderly exercise group in Bacem Village, Ponggok District, Blitar Regency. The pre-test results showed that 70% of participants were in the adequate knowledge category, and 30% were in the good knowledge category. After the education was provided, the post-test results showed an increase in knowledge, with 85% in the good knowledge category and 15% in the adequate knowledge category. The results of the gout examination showed that 50% of participants had normal gout levels, 45% had high gout levels, and 5% had low gout levels. Education on gout arthritis management and ergonomic exercise proved to be effective in increasing the knowledge of the elderly and is recommended to be implemented continuously in promotive and preventive efforts in the community.
