The nutritional status of children under five is an important matter that must be considered more deeply because it is based on the fact that toddlers are the age group that most often suffers from malnutrition (KKP) and is irreversible (cannot recover). Based on the results of a preliminary survey at the Regional General Hospital of Muna Regency, it was found that in 2013 the number of sufferers of malnutrition was 18 toddlers and in 2014 the number of sufferers of malnutrition was 28 toddlers. Then in the 2015 period from January to May the number of sufferers of malnutrition was 39 children under five. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors associated with the nutritional status of children under five at the General Hospital of Muna Regency. The type of research used is analytical research method with a cross sectional study approach. Sampling used the total sampling method and the number of samples was 39 respondents. The results showed that there was a weak relationship (phi = 0.378) between nutrient intake and the nutritional status of children under five (X² hit = 5.574 > X² tab = 3.841), there was a strong relationship (phi = 0.799) between mother's knowledge and child's nutritional status. under five years old (X² hit = 24,927>X² tab = 3.841), there is a strong relationship (phi = 0.742) between family income and nutritional status of children under five (X² hit = n21,474> X² tab = 3.841). It is recommended to the Munaagar District General Hospital to hold outreach to the community, especially mothers of toddlers about the need for nutritional intake for children under five.

Abstract

Community Service Activity (PKM) was carried out in Kelurahan Toronipa with the aim of enhancing the community’s knowledge and skills in the areas of health and environmental management. The main issues identified were the high prevalence of hypertension and the low public awareness regarding proper household waste management. This program was implemented by supervising lecturers and thematic KKN (Kuliah Kerja Nyata) students from various study programs (Sanitation, Nursing, Pharmacy, Psychology and Public Health) using an educational and participatory approach. The activities conducted included waste management education, stress management training for individuals with hypertension, blood pressure and blood sugar screening, and health education on non-communicable diseases such as hypertension and diabetes mellitus. The results showed that 48 participants attended the waste management education session, with 30 successfully practicing Takakura composting and 15 individuals bringing ecobricks home. Stress management training was attended by 32 participants, 25 of whom stated that the relaxation techniques were easy to implement at home. A total of 61 individuals participated in the health screening, which identified 18 with high blood pressure and 7 with elevated blood sugar levels, all of whom were referred for further medical evaluation. The education session on non-communicable diseases was attended by 55 participants, with 90% able to mention at least two risk factors for hypertension and diabetes. These findings demonstrate that educational interventions are effective in increasing community awareness of healthy lifestyles and environmental management. It is recommended that this program be continued through collaboration with local health institutions and government authorities to achieve broader and more sustainable impact.

Abstract

Pengukuran Lingkar Lengan Atas (LILA) pada ibu hamil di Desa Mekar Jaya merupakan salah satu upaya penting dalam program kesehatan ibu dan anak. LILA adalah indikator yang digunakan untuk menilai status gizi ibu hamil. Pengukuran ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan pita pengukur khusus yang ditempatkan di pertengahan lengan atas, tepat di antara bahu dan siku. Pengukuran LILA yang akurat dapat membantu mendeteksi risiko kekurangan gizi pada ibu hamil, yang dapat berdampak pada kesehatan ibu dan perkembangan janin. Desa Mekar Jaya, seperti banyak desa lainnya di Kecamatan Moramo Utara, menghadapi tantangan dalam memastikan gizi yang cukup bagi ibu hamil. Faktor-faktor seperti akses terhadap makanan bergizi, pengetahuan tentang gizi, dan layanan kesehatan yang terbatas sering kali menjadi hambatan. Oleh karena itu, program pengukuran LILA menjadi sangat penting sebagai bagian dari upaya pencegahan dan intervensi dini. Dengan mengetahui status gizi ibu hamil secara tepat, tenaga kesehatan dapat memberikan saran dan intervensi yang sesuai untuk memperbaiki status gizi mereka. Pelaksanaan program pengukuran LILA di Desa Mekar Jaya melibatkan berbagai pihak, termasuk bidan desa, kader posyandu, dan tenaga kesehatan dari puskesmas. Kegiatan ini biasanya dilakukan secara berkala, terutama pada saat posyandu atau kunjungan rutin ke rumah ibu hamil. Pengukuran dilakukan dengan hati-hati untuk memastikan data yang akurat dan konsisten. Hasil pengukuran kemudian dicatat dan dianalisis untuk menentukan tindakan yang perlu diambil.

Abstract

Background:   The nutritional status of elementary school-aged children is a crucial factor in determining the quality of future human resources. However, limited nutritional knowledge among children remains a challenge, particularly in coastal areas with restricted access to information. Purpose:  This study aims to assess the effectiveness of leaflet-based educational media in improving students' knowledge about balanced nutrition at Elementary School 2 Toronipa, Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. Methods:   This research employed a pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The sample consisted of 45 students from grades III, IV, and V, selected through total sampling. The research instrument was a multiple-choice questionnaire developed based on the Balanced Nutrition Guidelines from the Indonesian Ministry of Health. The study procedure included a pretest, an educational intervention using leaflets, and a posttest. Results:   The results showed that before the intervention, the majority of students had moderate (51.1%) and low (31.1%) levels of knowledge. Following the intervention, there was a significant increase in the high knowledge category to 73.4%, while the low category decreased to 2.2%. The average knowledge score improved from 11.3 to 16.6. The paired sample t-test indicated a statistically significant difference (p = 0.000; p < 0.05), confirming the effectiveness of the leaflet in enhancing students’ nutritional knowledge. Conclusion:   Leaflets are an efficient, easy-to-understand, and engaging educational medium for elementary school children. These findings have positive implications for school-based nutrition education programs, especially in regions with limited access to information. Leaflet media can be integrated into health promotion programs to improve nutritional literacy and support healthy lifestyles from an early age.

Abstract

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) remains a major global health challenge, with prevalence increasing both worldwide and in Indonesia, including Kendari City, Southeast Sulawesi. Preventive strategies that integrate community engagement and local food systems are urgently needed. Methods: This study employed a qualitative descriptive design to explore community experiences, perceptions, and involvement in diversifying scad fish into value-added products as a strategy for DM prevention. Research was conducted in Kendari with 32 participants, including health cadres, women’s groups, small and medium enterprise (SME) fish processors, and community leaders. Data collection methods consisted of in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, participant observation, and document review. Thematic analysis was applied using Miles and Huberman’s framework, supported by triangulation and member checking to ensure credibility. Results: Findings revealed that scad fish, though abundant and affordable, was underutilized due to low preference compared to other fish species. Through participatory processes, communities co-developed scad fish floss and crackers, which were widely accepted for their practicality, longer shelf life, and cultural compatibility. Mothers reported replacing sugary snacks with scad-based products, indicating positive dietary shifts, while SMEs and women’s groups gained new livelihood opportunities. Community involvement particularly by health cadres and local leaders was identified as the central factor ensuring acceptance, sustainability, and dissemination of the intervention. Conclusions: The diversification of scad fish into floss and crackers demonstrates a culturally relevant, sustainable, and community-driven approach to DM prevention. Beyond improving nutrition, this intervention also strengthens local economies and promotes social empowerment. The study provides a model for integrating health promotion with local food resources, offering implications for future community-based strategies in resource-rich settings.
