Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease whose prevalence continues to rise globally, including in Indonesia, and is often triggered by unhealthy lifestyle habits starting from a young age. Early prevention efforts through education about risk factors are crucial to reducing future incidence. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge of children and adolescents at Arrohyati Orphanage regarding diabetes mellitus risk factors. The method used was health education delivered through interactive lectures, discussions, and Q&A sessions. Knowledge evaluation was conducted through pre-test and post-test assessments. There were 16 participants with diverse characteristics, consisting of 9 females and 7 males, aged 6–18 years, with educational levels ranging from kindergarten to senior high school. The results showed an improvement in participants' understanding after the educational intervention. In the pre- test, 7 participants were categorized as having good knowledge, 4 were in the fair category, and 5 were in the poor category. After the educational session, the number of participants with good knowledge increased to 9, while fair and poor categories decreased to 3 and 4, respectively. These findings indicate a positive shift towards better understanding. The discussion confirms that health education significantly contributes to improving knowledge among children and adolescents, although repetition and environmental support are required to sustain the outcomes. In conclusion, education on diabetes mellitus risk factors effectively enhanced participants' understanding, and follow-up actions such as monitoring and caregiver involvement are needed to reinforce healthy lifestyle practices.

Abstract

Merokok pada usia anak dan remaja merupakan masalah kesehatan yang perlu dicegah melalui pemberian informasi yang sesuai dengan tahap perkembangan. Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan anak asuh mengenai dampak negatif merokok. Kegiatan dilaksanakan di Panti Asuhan Mitra Arofah Surabaya pada 30 Agustus 2026 dan diikuti 30 peserta jenjang sekolah dasar hingga sekolah menengah atas. Kegiatan edukasi dilakukan secara interaktif menggunakan presentasi, media visual, diskusi, dan tanya jawab tentang kandungan rokok, dampak rokok konvensional dan elektronik, bahaya paparan asap rokok, serta upaya pencegahan. Pengetahuan diukur menggunakan 10 soal pilihan ganda yang sama sebelum dan sesudah edukasi; setiap jawaban benar bernilai 10 poin. Data dianalisis secara deskriptif dan menggunakan uji Wilcoxon. Rerata skor meningkat dari 60,67 ± 4,50 menjadi 85,00 ± 5,09, dengan kenaikan rerata 24,33 poin. Sebanyak 30 peserta (100%) memperoleh skor posttest lebih tinggi daripada pretest, dan uji Wilcoxon menunjukkan perbedaan bermakna antara skor sebelum dan sesudah edukasi (p<0,001). Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan segera setelah edukasi; namun, tanpa kelompok pembanding dan pengukuran tindak lanjut, hasil ini belum menggambarkan daya tahan pengetahuan dalam jangka panjang.
