Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health concern in Indonesia, where high prevalence rates are often linked to limited community awareness of prevention, transmission, and treatment adherence. This Community Service Program (PkM) aimed to improve knowledge and strengthen preventive behaviors among residents of Cihanjuang Rahayu Village, West Bandung, through an interactive family based educational intervention. A quasi experimental design with pre and post test assessments was applied to 45 high risk participants, including family heads and core household members. Educational sessions focused on TB symptoms, proper cough etiquette, home ventilation, and the implementation of the Family Directly Observed Treatment Short course (F-DOTS) model. Findings revealed significant improvements in knowledge (mean pre test = 58.2; post test = 87.9; p < 0.001) and preventive behavior (mean pre test = 65.1; post test = 90.3; p < 0.001). These outcomes demonstrate the effectiveness of interactive learning strategies such as group discussions, simulations, and family centered case studies in promoting behavioral change. The family based approach was especially valuable, as family members play a pivotal role in supporting treatment compliance and maintaining healthy home environments. The program’s success suggests the need for integrating similar educational initiatives into local primary health center (Puskesmas) outreach to accelerate Indonesia’s TB elimination target by 2030.

Abstract

Anatomy and Physiology (A&P) is considered the bioscientific foundation of nursing practice, yet evidence linking A&P academic performance to objectively measured clinical skill competency remains limited, particularly within Indonesian undergraduate nursing programmers. This study examined the association between A&P academic performance and basic nursing skills competency among undergraduate nursing students in Indonesia. A retrospective correlational design was employed using administrative records from 178 Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) students at Universitas Advent Indonesia, Bandung. A&P performance was operationalized as course grade (4.0 scale) and examination score (0–100%). Basic nursing skills competency was assessed via a standardized 10-station Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). Pearson product-moment correlations and simultaneous-entry multiple linear regression were used for analysis. Both A&P indicators showed moderate, statistically significant positive correlations with OSCE performance (course grade: r = 0.44; examination score: r = 0.47; both p < 0.001). The regression model was statistically significant [F(3,174) = 18.32,p < 0.001;R2 = 0.24, adjusted R2 = 0.23]. A&P course grade (beta = 0.38,p < 0.001) and examination score (beta= 0.31,p = 0.001) were independent predictors of OSCE performance, whereas overall GPA was not a unique predictor after controlling for A&P indicators (beta = 0.12,p = 0.182)
