Abstract

Determining the prevalence of sarcopenia and identifying associated factors can aid in early detection and treatment among community-dwelling elderly. This study aims to estimate the prevalence of sarcopenia and identify associated factors. This cross-sectional study was conducted in the elderly community within the two areas of Public Health Center, Semarang, Indonesia, through random sampling. Sarcopenia was defined based on the 2019 Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) criteria. Data on socio-demographics, clinical, and functional status were collected and associated factors analyzed using multivariable logistic regression. Of the 153 participants, the prevalence of severe sarcopenia was 50.33%, and overall sarcopenia prevalence was 44.44%. Elderly individuals with severe sarcopenia had a mean age of 69.45, with a higher occurrence in women (79.2%) compared to men. Age (p=0.003; APR: 1.105; 95% CI: 1.035-1.180), toilet type (p=0.002; APR: 4.194; 95% CI: 1.677-10.493), and being female (p=0.049; APR: 2.341; 95% CI: 1.003-5.460) were identified as risk factors for severe sarcopenia. The prevalence of severe sarcopenia is elevated among community-dwelling elderly. Sarcopenia was defined as low muscle mass with low handgrip strength and/or low gait speed. Routine check-ups are needed to detect sarcopenia and its risk factors in primary health care to enable early intervention for sarcopenia in the elderly.

Abstract

The evaluation of the "SIMPUS" software in Semarang City is motivated by the existence of a dental medical record information system within the “SIMPUS” application. However, some menus are not yet aligned with the required standards. In addition, there is a new discourse on the use of dental data as a means of human identification in disaster events. The aim of this study is to provide an overview of the implementation of a standardized dental medical record information system, as well as to establish and test a system capable of supporting decision-making in human identification. This research employed a quantitative descriptive method to evaluate the use of the “SIMPUS” software in Semarang City. Data collection was carried out through interviews and observations. The research subjects were dental therapists and dentists at community health centers (puskesmas) within the jurisdiction of the Semarang City Health Office. Data were analyzed using a quantitative descriptive approach. The results showed that the “SIMPUS” software in Semarang City is user-friendly as a Dental Medical Record Information System, although some codes occasionally do not appear. The system is comprehensive, and the data output matches the input provided. However, the feature for human identification using dental charts is not yet available, and there is no display of individual baseline data related to odontogram codes. The “SIMPUS” software in Semarang City is accepted by users as a Dental Medical Record Information System that meets national dental record standards. It can be used by community health centers to manage patient registration data, medical records, and generate monthly disease reports (LB1) and dental treatment reports. However, patient search features based on odontogram codes are not yet available, and further research is needed.
