Abstract

ABSTRAK Kanker serviks merupakan jenis kanker terbanyak kedua yang di derita perempuan setelah kanker payudara. Salah satu upaya penanganan dan pencegahan kanker serviks yang dilakukan oleh Pemerintah adalah dengan program deteksi dini kanker serviks dengan metode IVA. IVA test merupakan pemeriksaan yang mudah, murah, namun cakupan deteksi dini tersebut masih tergolong rendah dan masih banyak wanita usia subur yang belum memanfaatkan program tersebut sehingga angka cakupan deteksi dini belum mencapai target yang telah ditetapkan. Kecamatan Pahae Jae adalah salah satu Kecamatan yang menyediakan pemeriksaan IVA Tes gratis kepada pasangan wanita usia subur. Kecamatan Pahae Jae juga terpilih sebagai kecamatan yang diperlombakan ke tingkat propinsi Sumatera Utara kategori IVA Test. Rendahnya cakupan skrining IVA test dipengaruhi oleh rendahnya pengetahuan tentang IVA test. Pengetahuan rendah yang dimiliki wanita akan mempengaruhi partisipasinya dalam melakukan skrining. Tujuan dari pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini adalah untuk mengedukasi wanita usia subur dengan memberikan pendidikan kesehatan/penyuluhan tentang IVA Test untuk mendeteksi dini kanker serviks di Kecamatan Pahae Jae dengan cara memberikan penyuluhan mengenai deteksi kanker serviks melalui pemeriksaan IVA Test yang dilaksanakan pada bulan Mei sampai dengan Juli 2022 di Kecamatan Pahae Jae. Dengan harapan dapat meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kesadaran wanita usia subur dalam melakukan pencegahan terhadap kanker serviks. Hasil : Pengetahuan ibu sebelum pelatihan pengetahuan Ibu dengan tingkat pengetahuan kurang 2 orang (4%), tingkat pengetahuan cukup 47 orang (94 %) sedangkan yang ber pengetahuan baik hanya 1 orang (2%). Setelah dilaksanakan edukasi tingkat pengetahuan wanita usia subur meningkat menjadi tingkat pengetahuan baik 50 orang (100 %). Kesimpulan: Hasil yang didapatkan setelah dilaksanakan pengabdian kepada Masyarakat terdapat peningkatan pengetahuan Wanita usia subur tentang pencegahan kanker serviks. Kata Kunci: Edukasi, IVA Test, Wanita Usia Subur   ABSTRACT Cervical cancer is the second most common type of cancer suffered by women after breast cancer. One of the efforts to treat and prevent cervical cancer carried out by the Government is the cervical cancer early detection program using the IVA method. The IVA test is an easy, inexpensive examination, but the coverage of early detection is still relatively low and there are still many women of childbearing age who have not taken advantage of the program so that the early detection coverage rate has not reached the target that has been set. Pahae Jae sub-district is one of the sub-districts that provides free IVA tests to women of childbearing age. Pahae Jae sub-district was also selected as a sub-district to compete at the North Sumatra provincial level in the IVA Test category. The low coverage of IVA test screening is influenced by low knowledge about the IVA test. Women's low knowledge will affect their participation in screening. The purpose of this community service is to educate women of childbearing age by providing health education / counseling about the IVA Test for early detection of cervical cancer in Pahae Jae District by providing counseling on cervical cancer detection through IVA Test examination which was carried out from May to July 2022 in Pahae Jae District. With the hope of increasing the knowledge and awareness of women of childbearing age in preventing cervical cancer. Results: Knowledge of mothers before training knowledge of mothers with a level of knowledge less 2 people (4%), the level of knowledge enough 47 people (94%) while the knowledge is good only 1 person (2%). After education, the level of knowledge of women of childbearing age increased to a good level of knowledge 50 people (100%). Conclusion: The results obtained after the implementation of community service there is an increase in the knowledge of women of childbearing age about the prevention of cervical cancer. Keywords: Education, IVA Test, Women of Fertile Age

Abstract

Stunting is a condition of growth failure in toddlers that has lifelong impacts on their health, human resources, and economic growth. The results of the Indonesian Nutrition Status Survey (SSGI) show that the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia decreased from 24.4% in 2021 to 21.6% in 2022 . The target prevalence of stunting in Indonesia is 14% by 2024. The incidence of stunting in North Tapanuli is already chronic, with the prevalence of stunting increasing from 26.7% in 2021 to 27.4% in 2022. The selection of animal protein from local food sources with digital literacy is expected to accelerate the reduction of stunting. This study aims to analyze the effect of using a local food-based menu and applying digital literacy to increase the height of stunted children. This type of research is a quasi-experimental study using pre- and post-tests with a control group design in July-September in North Tapanuli Regency to compare the increase in height gain with local food. The sample consisted of 34 stunted children aged 12-60 months. Height measurements were taken every month after three months of intervention. Data were analyzed using a T-test with a 95% confidence level. This study showed that local food-based menus with digital literacy could increase the height of children aged 12-60 months p-value: was 0.014 <0.05. In the control group (without receiving local food-based menu intervention with digital literacy), there was no effect on increasing height p-value 0.125>0.05. The application of a local food-based menu with the use of digital literacy has an effect in increasing the height of children who are stunted, digital literacy can help parents access information, and educate families, through applications and social media so that this research is important, useful to introduce a new approach in handling stunting, namely combining local food with digital literacy.

Abstract

Latar belakang: Ibu primipara biasanya mengalami rasa kecemasan yang tinggi dalam menghadapi proses persalinan, hal tersebut dapat mempengaruhi kekuatan kontraksi ibu untuk mendorong janin keluar selama proses persalinan. Persalinan dapat berjalan lancar jika ibu mampu menyelaraskan antara pernafasan dengan kontraksi uterus yang dirasakan, hal tersebut dapat dilakukan jika ibu dalam kondisi yang rileks. Aplikasi hipnosis dalam obstetri saat ini menjadi trend, khususnya dalam merencanakan persalinan yang fisiologis tanpa disertai gangguan psikologis seperti cemas yang berlebihan. Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui Pengaruh Hypnobirthing Terhadap Tingkat Kecemasan Ibu Inpartu Kala I di Puskesmas Sarulla Kecamatan Pahae Jae Kabupaten Tapanuli Utara Tahun 2022. Metode: Experiment semu (quasi experiment) yang menggunakan desain posttest only control group design untuk membandingkan ibu yang diberi Hypnobirthing dengan yang tidak diberi hypnobirthing. Jumlah sampel seluruhnya dalam penelitian ini sebanyak 20 Ibu inpartu yang dibagi dalam 2 kelompok, yaitu 10 Ibu inpartu dengan Hypnobirthing dan 10 Ibu inpartu tanpa menggunakan Hypnobirthing. Penelitian dilakukan di Puskesmas Sarulla Kecamatan Pahae Jae Kabupaten Tapanuli Utara bulan Januari-Desember 2022. Pengambilan sampel menggunakan purposive sampel. Analisis data: menggunakan analisis univariat, bivariat dengan menggunakan uji T Test. Hasil: Uji T Paired SPSS dapat disimpulkan bahwa nilai korelasi antara 2 variabel tersebut yaitu 0,973 artinya hubungan kuat dan positif. Dan nilai Sig tingkat signifikansi hubungan dengan hasil 0,000 yang artinya signifikan pada level 0,01 ada perbedan tingkat kecemasan perlakuan dengan hypnotherapy dan tanpa hypnotherapy. Saran: dalam menangani nyeri persalinan hendaknya menggunakan tekhnik hypnobirthing karena sangat efektif dalam menangani nyeri persalinan, penerapan tekhnik hypnobirthing ini harus dilakukan bertahap atau diajarkan dalam kelas-kelas ibu hamil, dan minimal diajarkan 2 minggu sebelum ibu bersalin maka hasilnya akan efektif.

Abstract

Childbirth is a natural process and every mother has the right to receive safe and satisfactory services. Pain, anxiety and fatigue accumulate during labor, causing increased release of catecholamine and steroid hormones that result in decreased uterine contractions, reduced blood flow and oxygen to the uterus, resulting in uterine ischemia which results in increased pain impulses. Midwives need to develop strategies in this regard. Lemon aromatherapy contains limonene compounds that can inhibit the prostaglandin system. The scent of lemon can stimulate endorphins that function as pain relievers and make mothers happy. This study aimed to examine the impact was to analyze the effect of aromatherapy on labor pain with experimental pre and post test and control group design research types. The number of samples in this study was 34 mothers in labor consisting of 17 intervention groups and 17 control groups. This study used the Mann-Whitney test to analyze with a 95% confidence level. The results of this study showed a significant difference in pain levels in mothers who received aromatherapy and did not receive aromatherapy: p value 0.006 <0.05. Conclusion: There is an effect of aromatherapy on the level of pain in the first stage of labor in the active phase. Suggestion: Providing lemon aromatherapy to mothers in labor can be an option to reduce pain levels. This can also develop non-pharmacological therapeutic midwifery care.
