Abstract

Background: Hypertension is no longer limited to older adults and increasingly affects adolescents. Behavioral risk factors, such as high sodium intake, high fat consumption, and insufficient physical activity, contribute to an increased risk of hypertension. Limited knowledge and unfavorable attitudes toward hypertension prevention among adolescents may perpetuate unhealthy behaviors, highlighting the need for educational interventions as an early strategy to prevent non-communicable diseases.Objective: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of education and counselling in improving adolescents’ knowledge, attitudes, and dietary patterns related to hypertension risk factors.Methods: An experimental study using a pretest–posttest control group design was conducted at SMAN 10, Semarang City, from June 19 to July 23, 2025. A total of 29 tenth-grade students with blood pressure >120/80 mmHg were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 15) and control (n = 14) groups. The intervention consisted of nutrition education and counselling using a booklet entitled “Healthy Living to Prevent Hypertension.” The collected data included knowledge, attitudes, and frequency of sodium-rich food consumption. Data were analyzed using independent t-tests.Results: The mean increase in knowledge (6.6 points) and attitude (2.1 points) scores was higher in the intervention group (p=0.109; p=0.333), and the mean frequency score of sodium-rich food consumption decreased by 3 points (p=0.115) compared to that in the control group. However, these differences were not statistically significant. Based on effect size, the intervention showed a greater tendency to reduce the frequency of sodium-rich food consumption (12.9%) than to improve knowledge (10.5%) and attitudes (3.7%).Conclusion: Nutrition education and counselling have the potential to improve knowledge, attitudes, and sodium-related dietary patterns among adolescents, although the results were not statistically significant in this study. This intervention shows promise as a preventive strategy for hypertension in adolescents.

Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) risk factors include changes in the lifestyle of adolescents with unhealthy diets tend to fast food, lack of activity and exercise, increased stressors, and exposure to environmental conditions that are not conducive to health. Establishing NCDs Integrated Health Service and Promotion Post is an efficient and effective control strategy aiming at early detection of NCDs risk factors. Empowerment of peer counsellors as Integrated Development Post cadres is expected to become agents of change and detect NCDs risk factors in schools. This research determines the effectiveness of implementing an adolescent-Integrated Development Post in schools to increase the adolescent cadre’s knowledge, anthropometric skills, and nutritional counseling. It is an experimental design with one group pre-post test at one of the high schools in Semarang City. Integrated Development Post cadres are peer counselors selected according to the criteria of 10% of the total number of students (36 people) from 11th grade. Differences in knowledge scores, anthropometric skills, and nutritional counseling of cadres were analyzed using the Paired T-test. The cadre’s knowledge scores increased from 50.55 to 70.11; anthropometric skills include weighing from 61.67 to 98.98, measuring height from 54.63 to 94.25, and nutritional counseling from 72.92 to 86.71. Paired T-test results show a p-value < 0.05. Integrated Development Post effectively increases cadre’s knowledge scores, anthropometric skills, and nutritional counseling. It can also detect risk factors to prevent and control NCDs in the school.
