Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are diseases that cannot be transmitted from person to person, whose development occurs slowly over a long period of time (chronic). In the initial course, NCDs often have no symptoms, many do not know and are aware that they have the disease. Efforts to control non-communicable diseases (PTM) such as: hypertension, etc., can be carried out by means of routine control at community health centers or through services at posyandu. Activities at the posyandu are coordinated by posyandu cadres. One of the activities carried out at the posyandu is health screening by measuring blood pressure. There are many posyandu cadres who have not mastered the skills of using manual blood pressure monitors. There needs to be training in using manual blood pressure monitors at posyandu. The goals of this activity is to increase knowledge and skills on how to use a blood pressure measuring device in the form of a manual blood pressure monitor for posyandu cadres in the Bawak Village Area, Cawas, Klaten. The methods used are socialization, preparation, implementation and evaluation. Training was carried out on a cadre of 17 people. All posyandu cadres were able to demonstrate well and were skilled at using a manual sphygmomanometer to measure blood pressure.

Abstract

Cancer is the leading cause of death in the world, with cancer being the second leading cause of death in the world at 13% after cardiovascular disease. Experts estimate that 40% of cancers can be prevented by reducing risk factors for cancer. For this reason, efforts are needed to increase public awareness to prevent these risk factors and increase appropriate prevention and control programs. Therefore, it is important for women to carry out early detection of breast cancer which aims to detect cancer as early as possible so that it is easier to treat through Self Breast Examination or breast self-examination, often shortened to SADARI. Universitas Muhammadiyah Klaten plays a role in carrying out these activities as a form of community service activities. This service activity includes education regarding Early Detection of Breast Cancer and SADARI examination using leaflets and demonstrations.
