Abstract

Health literacy is one of the essential components of the health sector. Health literacy could diminish mortality and morbidity, especially in cardiovascular disease. Until now, coronary artery disease is one of the most threatening diseases in our society. Pandemic forces our world to change into a digital era, including in health education. Surprisingly, online education is increasing health literacy as effectively as the conventional method. This study aims to determine the effect of a training program on knowledge of non-medical society about heart and blood vessel disease. This research was comparing pre-test and post-test scores for non-medical societies in webinars about coronary artery disease. From our result, we found that online education could increase the scope of the participant (48% of participants come from outside Jakarta). Our participants also quite vary from youngsters to senior citizens, from 18 to 69 years old. The online webinar could increase health literacy in coronary artery disease significantly (pre-test score: 50 (10-100), post-test score: 60 (20-100), p-value <0.001). Webinars about coronary artery disease could increase health literacy in non-medical society and it seems to be an effective method during pandemic COVID-19.

Abstract

Background: Currently, hypertension becomes one of the leading issues not only for medical community but also to the broader societies. Even though hypertension could be symptomatic, in most case it didn’t until the devastating complications shows up. Functional capacity is a simple tool based on our daily activity. The six-minute walk test could be one of the simplest ways in measuring functional capacity. Six-minute distance as the outcome of this test could be potentially a marker for functional capacity in hypertensive group compare to non-hypertensive group.Methods: This is a case control study with 34 female participants in six-minute walking test.Result: There are no significant different of age, height, weight, and body max index between those groups. The six-minute walking distance drastically difference between hypertensive and non-hypertensive group, 306m and 367m respectively with p-value < 0,01. Heart rate pre-test also statistically different between control group and case group. (75 bpm and 94 bpm, p-value = 0,027) Post-test blood pressure is notably distinctive between two groups. Additionally, systolic blood pressure post-test lower than initial value. Hypertension alters human functional capacity ominously.Conclusion : The six-minute walk test could be applied as simple functional capacity marker in hypertension subject.
