Abstract

The prevalence of Refractive Error (RE) in school children tends to increase. The study aims to analyze the prevalence and determinants of RE in elementary school children. The research was carried out in 2022, using a cross-sectional design. The research population is 110 students in grades V and VI of Krapyak State Elementary School, Semarang City. A total of 80 students were selected as samples with purposive sampling techniques. Data collection was carried out by interview techniques using questionnaires. RE is measured by Snellen Chart examination and pinhole lens. The multiple logistic regression multivariate test was used for risk factor analysis. The bivariate analysis resulted in 6 variables eligible for inclusion in the multivariate analysis model. The results of the multivariate analysis showed that there were 2 risk factors for RE, namely: smartphone use ≥ 2 hours continuously per day (OR = 14.622 95% CI 1.124 - 190.181) and parental history (OR = 11.194, 95% CI 1.827 -65.567). The probability of RE if a student has both risk factors is 71%. The use of smartphones ≥ 2 hours continuously per day and the presence of parental history of RE are risk factors for RE events in elementary school students.

Abstract

Children under the age of five (the under-five) from low-income families are more vulnerable to experience underweight. This nutritional vulnerability is evident in the preliminary study, where 35.1% of the under-five experience underweight, and 28.48% are low-income families. This study aimed to explore Positive Deviance (PD) behaviors in preventing underweight among the under-five. The study applied a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data collection took place in July-August 2022, focusing on low-income families in the Gunung Brintik area. Data were collected through two focus group discussions, seven in-depth interviews, and five key informant interviews. Coding, subtheme, and theme development were facilitated using the ATLAS.ti trial package. Triangulation of the study results yielded four major themes influencing the prevention of underweight in the under-five: interventions by health workers and cadres, community awareness and concern, family support, and maternal nutrition literacy. The identified PD behaviors practiced by the community in the study location have been shown to contribute to the prevention of underweight in the under-five. Strengthening these identified PD behaviors and their implementation in other areas is essential to support efforts to combat underweight in the under-five.

Abstract

Visual impairment, especially in children, is currently very under-appreciated. A poor learning environment is one of the triggers for decreased visual acuity in children, even though good vision is very important in the teaching and learning process. Training fine motor skills can not only be done at school. but it is most effective if it can be started in the family so that family support is needed to increase brain stimulation and improve visual acuity in addition to good nutritional intake in children. Based on a preliminary survey, there are around 85 toddlers in RW I, Palebon Village, Pedurungan District, where on average, based on information from the parents of each child, they have been introduced to gadgets since the age of 9 months. This is what we need to be aware of regarding eye health problems in toddlers from an early age due to the influence of gadgets. Increasing brain stimulation and improving visual acuity can be done early on through family empowerment, which is something that is not yet widely realized by families in RW I, Palebon, Pedurungan. For the smooth running of family empowerment efforts in training brain stimulation and visual acuity using educational games for pre-school children, there are several categories in the implementation, namely Lectures on the importance of maintaining visual acuity, Practice using Fun Thinker, Role Play, Case Studies and discussions, Evaluation and mentoring with the target being the family. The result of the implementation of this PKM is an increase in family knowledge and skills in training brain stimulation which also has an impact on visual acuity. In realizing that the family plays an important role in training brain stimulation which also has an impact on visual acuity, there needs to be positive activities built in the family, especially those that are useful in increasing brain intelligence by conducting brain stimulation and visual acuity.

Abstract

Refractive errors are the most common visual disorders throughout the world, one of which is myopia (Yeyen Ariaty et al., 2019). Myopia can be caused by genetic and environmental factors, one of which is close viewing activities such as using gadget, PC screen, or laptop for more than 10 hours without taking a break (Lestari et al., 2020). Using gadgets, PC screens, or laptops is inseparable from our daily life. More than half of the world’s population consume digital media as the main choice of communication and media channels at work. Ignoring eye health will affect eye function (Alifina, 2021). Eye diseases are still often experienced by people, so the eyes require good care (Dana, 2020).Objective: This study aims to find out the factors affecting the refractive status progression of Universitas Widya Husada Semarang Staffs. The factors analyzed include age, screen time, eyeglasses use length, and natural history of diseases.Method: This study uses a quantitative research method oriented with inductive logic, while data collection uses questionnaires with Spearman’s Rank Test on SPSS (Nursalam, 2019). With saturated sample technique, the total population and the number of samples is 35 respondents, the questionnaire used in primary data collection was carried out. Validity and reliability tests were tested on 30 respondents taken from outside the research location. Results: The study results show a significant correlation of age and screen time, but no significant correlation of eyeglasses use length and natural history of disease to the progression of refractive status. Conclusions: The research data shows that there is a significant relationship between age and length of exposure to the screen, but there is no significant relationship between the use of glasses and a history of disease on the development of refractive status.

Abstract

Kesehatan mata pada lanjut usia (lansia) umumnya terjadi karena kemampuan mata untuk secara aktif berfokus pada objek yang dekat perlahan-lahan berkurang dikarenakan usia. Di desa Kedung Jangan, Kelurahan Purwosari, Kecamatan Mijen selama ini mempunyai kegiatan posyandu lansia, namun hanya sebatas melakukan kegiatan senam lansia dan pemeriksaan tekanan darah, kolesterol dan asam urat. Dari studi pendahuluan 10 lansia tidak mengetahui tentang kesehatan mata dan belum pernah mendapatkan pemeriksaan mata dan banyak yang mengeluh mengalami gangguan penglihatan. Mengingat pentingnya kesehatan mata pada lansia yang akan berdampak bagi kondisi lansia secara umum, maka sangat perlu untuk dilakukan pemberian informasi terkait kesehatan mata pada lansia. Metode yang dilakukan adalah dengan memberikan informasi tentang kesehatan mata, pemeriksaan tajam penglihatan (visus), dan pemberian frame kacamata secara gratis. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini diikuti sebanyak 50 lansia, dari mulai mengerjakan soal pre test, penyampaian materi, dan mengerjakan post test. Sebelum diberikan pengetahuan sebagian besar subyek belum memahami deteksi dini gangguan penglihatan, hal ini ditunjukkan dengan skor pengetahuan baik sebelumnya 0% menjadi 75%, skor pengetahuan cukup sebelumnya 16% menjadi 23% dan skor pengetahuan kurang sebelumnya 84% turun menjadi 2%. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa terdapat peningkatan pengetahuan tentang kesehatan mata pada lansia di Kedung Jangan Kelurahan Purwosari, Kecamatan Mijen, Kota Semarang. Setelah kegiatan ini diharapkan agar para lansia yang mengikuti kegiatan ini dapat menyebarluaskan pengetahuan kepada masyarakat di sekitarnya terutama para lansia.

Abstract

Background: The online learning process during the Covid 19 pandemic has increased the incidence of Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). The results of the study showed that there were 15% of lecturers at Widya Husada University Semarang experienced CVS. The purpose of the study was to analyze CVS risk factors among lecturers during the online learning period.Methods: The study was conducted using a case-control design. The research sample was lecturers at Widya Husada University as many as 60 people consisting of 30 people each in the case and control groups. A questionnaire with google forms was used for data collection. The data analysis used was univariate, chi-square for bivariate analysis and multiple logistic regression for multivariate analysis.Results: There are 5 variables that are significantly proven as risk factors for CVS, namely: 1) long working with computers (OR = 18.693; 95% CI = 1.487 – 234.955); 2) duration of computer use continuously (OR = 54,281; 95% CI = 2,523 – 1167,92); 3) length of rest after using the computer (OR = 31.060; 95% CI = 1.884 – 512.062); 4) distance from eyesight to monitor (OR = 34.640; 95% CI = 2.263 – 530.240); and 5) the position of the top of the monitor with respect to the horizontal eye level (OR = 17.555; 95% CI = 1.778 -173.296). Lecturers who have these 5 risk factors together will have a probability of experiencing CVS by 83%. Conclusion: Exposure to computer monitors experienced by lecturers during online learning will increase the risk of CVS events. There needs to be an effort to modify risk factors so that CVS events among lecturers during online learning can be prevented.

Abstract

Background: Research on eye health among elementary school students in Semarang City showed that 22.5% had refractive errors, 36.3% had unhealthy habits such as looking at smartphone screens for too long and reading distance < 30 cm. This indicates that eye health literacy in elementary school children is still lacking. The study aimed to develop an eye health literacy instrument for elementary school children. The development research design was utilized to develop an instrument for measuring eye health literacy. This process consisted of three stages: preliminary study, development, and testing. A focus group discussion (FGD) was conducted to determine the dimensions and parameters of eye health literacy. Instrument testing was carried out through the assessment of five experts in the field of eye health. Content validity was calculated using the Aiken V formula. The study developed an instrument for eye health literacy consisting of 4 dimensions: 1) knowledge about eye health, 2) access to eye health information, 3) skills to maintain eye health, 4) access to eye health services. The expert validity test using Aiken's V coefficient showed that each item in the eye health literacy instrument was considered as valid (coefficient ≥ 0.92).Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the developed eye health literacy instrument is proven to have high content validity. It is suggested that further research is needed for the external testing stage.
