Abstract

This study specifically examines how promotive and preventive health strategies are implemented in Puskesmas Kuta Alam, Banda Aceh, Indonesia, to address the challenges of urban health services. This study aims to explore the implementation dynamics of these strategies at Puskesmas Kuta Alam, an urban public health center in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis, focusing on four themes: communication, resources, staff disposition, and bureaucratic structure. Findings reveal that while health promotion efforts exist, they are constrained by unidirectional communication practices, low community engagement, and a lack of culturally adapted messaging. Human resource limitations, including an absence of trained personnel and insufficient educational infrastructure, further weaken program effectiveness. Staff demonstrated moral commitment to preventive care but lacked formal training and policy literacy, leading to inconsistent implementation of national health regulations. Moreover, the absence of a clearly defined organizational structure for promotive preventive programs resulted in poor coordination and accountability. These insights highlight the systemic challenges faced by Puskesmas in Banda Aceh in translating health policy into practice. The study recommends adopting participatory communication strategies, enhancing training and infrastructure, and establishing a dedicated institutional unit for preventive services. By contributing to the growing body of knowledge on primary health care implementation in LMICs, the study offers evidence based recommendations to strengthen health promotion capacity at the local level.

Abstract

This narrative review examines the role of digital health technologies and big data analytics in pandemic preparedness, with particular reference to COVID-19. The objective was to synthesize evidence on how technological innovations supported healthcare and education during crises and to identify barriers that limit their effectiveness. Literature searches were conducted across PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, focusing on empirical studies, case analyses, and systematic reviews related to telehealth, artificial intelligence, digital dashboards, and citizen science initiatives. The review found that digital innovations enabled remote consultations, predictive modeling, and real-time monitoring, which reduced pressure on health systems and informed public policy. Evidence highlighted the value of visual analytics and community-driven data in filling information gaps. However, infrastructural limitations, weak governance, and low public trust constrained adoption, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Comparative analyses showed that countries with strong infrastructures and transparent policies, such as Taiwan and South Korea, achieved more effective outcomes than regions with limited technological readiness. These findings indicate that digital health tools are powerful enablers of crisis response but insufficient in isolation. Sustainable integration requires investment in infrastructure, capacity-building, transparent communication, and participatory approaches. Embedding these reforms into health systems will be critical to ensure equitable access, strengthen resilience, and optimize the benefits of technological innovation for future pandemic preparednessof technological innovations in global health preparedness.

Abstract

Musculoskeletal disorders are conditions characterized by symptoms ranging from mild discomfort to severe pain in the musculoskeletal area caused by improper work practices. Musculoskeletal complaints affect approximately 1.71 billion people globally and are the leading cause of disability worldwide. Improper manual material handling, such as incorrect lifting and carrying techniques, can exacerbate musculoskeletal symptoms such as pain, discomfort, and sleep disturbances, ultimately reducing productivity—particularly among airport ground handling personnel. Several factors, including age, working posture, body mass index (BMI), and length of employment, may contribute to these complaints. This study aimed to examine the association between age, working posture, BMI, and years of service with musculoskeletal complaints among ground handling workers at the apron area of Mutiara SIS Al-Jufri Airport, Palu, in 2025. A quantitative approach with a cross-sectional study design was employed, involving 41 ground handling personnel selected using a total sampling technique. Data analysis using chi-square and Fisher’s exact tests revealed significant relationships between working posture (p = 0.015) and years of service (p = 0.021) with musculoskeletal complaints, while age (p = 0.130) and BMI (p = 1.000) showed no significant association. It is recommended that workers communicate effectively with their team to distribute workloads, maintain an ideal body weight, implement job rotation, and maintain proper posture when handling materials.

Abstract

ANALYSIS OF TRADERS' PREPAREDNESS IN FIGHTING FIRE IN MASOMBA MARKET, PALU CITY Fire is a disaster that can cause severe losses to managers, owners, users, and the surrounding community. Traditional markets are particularly vulnerable to fire incidents, with impacts ranging from economic damage to threats to human safety. This study aimed to analyze the preparedness of traders in fire disaster management at Masomba Market, Palu City, and to provide a basis for developing preparedness programs, including education, training, and fire drills. A mixed-method design with a concurrent triangulation approach was applied, integrating qualitative and quantitative methods equally. The study was conducted at Masomba Market, Palu City, from August to September 2025. The results showed no significant relationship between knowledge and attitudes with traders’ preparedness in fire prevention. However, training and counseling were positively associated with improved preparedness. Overall, traders demonstrated sufficient knowledge, attitudes, and participation in training, as supported by interviews and probing with informants. Nonetheless, some informants provided responses that diverged from general ethical norms. The study suggests that traders should actively engage in fire preparedness training and consistently apply the acquired skills in daily practices.

Abstract

Menarche merupakan tonggak penting dalam perkembangan biologis dan psikologis anak perempuan, namun banyak siswi sekolah dasar di Indonesia menghadapinya dengan kecemasan akibat kurangnya pengetahuan, stigma budaya, dan fasilitas yang tidak memadai. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kesiapan siswi SD Negeri 1 Tatura, Kota Palu dalam menghadapi menstruasi pertama melalui edukasi interaktif. Sebanyak 51 siswi berusia 10–12 tahun mengikuti sosialisasi yang dilaksanakan pada 10 Oktober 2025. Intervensi dilakukan melalui interactive health education yang memadukan penyampaian materi, diskusi, leaflet bergambar, serta games edukatif. Evaluasi dilakukan menggunakan pre-test dan post-test, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan Wilcoxon Test untuk menilai peningkatan pengetahuan. Hasil menunjukkan adanya peningkatan skor rata-rata dari 11,76 menjadi 14,41, dengan nilai signifikansi p = 0,000, menandakan adanya perbedaan pengetahuan yang signifikan setelah intervensi. Media leaflet dan pendekatan interaktif terbukti meningkatkan pemahaman, keterlibatan, dan rasa percaya diri peserta dalam menghadapi menarche. Program ini menunjukkan bahwa edukasi pra-menarche yang terstruktur dapat menjadi strategi efektif untuk menurunkan kecemasan dan meningkatkan kesiapan siswi. Implementasi program serupa disarankan untuk diperluas melalui keterlibatan guru dan pendekatan berbasis keluarga agar keberlanjutan edukasi dapat terjaga.

Abstract

Occupational Safety and Health (K3) is a crucial aspect of the food manufacturing industry, which carries a relatively high risk of occupational accidents. This research aims to describe the factors that cause occupational accidents among workers at Company X in Japan using the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS) approach. This study employs a quantitative method with an analytical descriptive design and involves the entire working population of 74 individuals through a total sampling technique. The variables analyzed include worker status, work shifts, compliance with the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), compliance with standard operating procedures (SOPs), and work areas. The results show that most workers (95.5%) had never experienced an occupational accident; however, the potential risk of accidents remains. The majority of workers are classified as compliant in the use of PPE (67.6%), but all respondents (100%) are recorded as non-compliant with SOPs. Most respondents were interns (58.1%) and worked in the packaging area (62.1%), with a relatively balanced distribution of work shifts between day and night shifts. Based on the HFACS analysis, the unsafe acts factor is indicated by non-compliance with PPE use; preconditions for unsafe acts are influenced by work shifts and work areas; unsafe supervision is reflected in the weak implementation of SOPs; while organizational influences are related to the predominance of interns and organizational policies. This study concludes that the potential for occupational accidents is influenced by both worker behavior and organizational systems.
