Abstract

Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) remain a public health problem in 149 tropical and subtropical countries, including Indonesia. NTDs are closely related to poverty and low levels of hygiene and sanitation. In Indonesia alone, there are more than 5 types of neglected tropical diseases, one of which is leprosy. Leprosy, also known as Morbus Hansen, caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium leprae, is a disease with a long history. Leprosy can be found in several scriptures and has been known since the time of Ancient Egypt around 2000 years BC. This disease is often considered a curse on the sufferer and until now this stigma continues to stick to the sufferer. Stigmatization and social discrimination in leprosy patients make leprosy sufferers isolated from the surrounding community so that the outreach process by health workers becomes difficult. Guidance for leprosy patients in the form of counseling was carried out before the pandemic through self-care groups for leprosy sufferers, and evaluations were carried out after the pandemic to assess improvements in literacy levels and understanding of the group members. The result of this community is an increase in literacy about the adoption of water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) among the members of self-care groups in first-level of health facilities.

Abstract

Tetanus is a serious disease caused by spores of the bacterium Clostridium tetani. Tetanus infection has no boundaries as people of all ages can be infected and it is still a public health problem today, especially for pregnant women and newborns. Neonatal tetanus (TN) is the tetanus infection in infants aged 3 – 28 days after birth and maternal tetanus (MT) is the infection that occurs during pregnancy and up to 6 weeks after delivery. Tetanus infection generally occurs if the delivery is not carried out in health facilities with adequate equipment and is known as one of the most common causes of death during childbirth. The aim of this Community Service activity was to provide counseling about the importance of Tetanus Toxoid (TT) T immunization for prospective brides and WUS who came to the mother and children out-patient clinic at the Primary Health Care. Cadres those bearing an important role in expanding health information for the community were also involved in this program. This Community Service activity held counseling for the prospective bride and fertile-aged women, while the cadres were given refreshing additional knowledge about TT immunization. The results of this activity were increasing the cadres’ knowledge about TT immunization, and those prospective-bride and fertile-aged women were also encouraged to carry out active TT immunization at the Primary Health Care. There is also a need for cross-sector collaboration with the Religious Affairs office in the application of evidence of TT immunization for prospective-bride as a mandatory requirement that could be implemented properly.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Especially in older individuals, perspective can serve as the basis for health behavior. This perspective measures the extent to which tuberculosis patients adhere to the treatment process based on pre-established guidelines. The presence of a negative patient attitude directly correlates with an increased likelihood of non-adherence to therapy, thereby giving birth to additional complications, such as medication resistance. Investigation of the variables influencing the viewpoint of older individuals with Tuberculosis in Bengkulu City. The research utilised a cross-sectional methodology and included a total of 153 participants in Bengkulu City. The sample selection method utilises a multistage random sampling methodology applied during a research period of one month. The data analysis procedure utilizes both univariate and logistic regression estimation techniques. The findings indicated that almost 50% of the participants were male, nearly 50% had completed primary education, nearly 50% were employed as farmers, nearly 50% were divorced, over 50% earned the Regional Minimum Wage, nearly 50% had limited knowledge, and nearly 50% had a negative outlook. Moreover, the findings indicated a correlation between gender, secondary education, agricultural occupation, marital status, income, and knowledge as perceived by senior individuals with tuberculosis in the Bengkulu City Region, with a statistically significant p-value of less than 0.05. The results suggest a correlation between the viewpoint of the respondent and the elements inherent to him. Hence, in order to shift the respondent's viewpoint towards a favorable one and enhance the patient's own treatment process, it is imperative to have active support from all stakeholders, including the family, the community, and the medical team. The adoption of a positive attitude by patients can foster motivation to comply with the treatment suggestions provided by the doctor, thereby potentially resulting in a reduction in the occurrence of tuberculosis. Improved health of the community can ensue as a consequence. Keywords: Perspective of Older People with Tuberculosis, Gender, Socio-Economics. ABSTRAK Perspektif dapat menjadi dasar dalam hal berperilaku kesehatan, khususnya pada pasien lansia. Perspektif ini menjadi penyebab penentu kepatuhan pasien TB dalam menjalani proses pengobatan yang sesuai dengan aturan yang telah ditetapkan.

Abstract

Sugary foods and drinks are defined as foods that contain high levels of sugar. The high sugar content in these foods or beverages generally comes from added sweeteners. Sugary foods and drinks affect human health. If sugary foods and drinks are consumed for a long period of time and in excessive proportions, health problems such as obesity, diabetes mellitus and dental and oral health can occur. School-aged children are consumers who consume a lot of sugary foods and drinks. The incidence of dental caries also often occurs in school children due to consumption of sugary foods and drinks. The purpose of this community service activity is to provide counseling to school children about the risks of consuming sugary foods and drinks, as well as provide education about dental and oral health.

Abstract

More than four million people die each year from respiratory problems, which also affect hundreds of millions more. This disease has detrimental effects on the family, society, and the health and well-being of the patient. especially those living in low- and middle-income countries, where people are daily exposed to indoor air pollution from solid fuels used for cooking and heating. The biggest significant risk factor for respiratory disease in high-income countries is tobacco use. WHO data for 2020 shows that Lower Respiratory Infection Disease and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease rank number 3 and 4, at 6.1% and 5.8% respectively. There are eight lung diseases that are a public health problem in Indonesia and are included in the scope of the Indonesian Ministry of Health's environmental health and disease control program, including Tuberculosis, Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI), Bronchial Asthma, Lung Disease, Chronic Obstructive, Lung Cancer, Air Pollution and Climate Change, Combating Smoking Problems, Emerging & New Emerging Diseases (including COVID-19). Since WHO declared the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, Indonesia has carried out public interventions to stop the pandemic, including pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical actions (wearing masks, travel restrictions, closing schools, and postponing public events). Non-pharmaceutical interventions have a greater impact on infectious diseases than pharmaceutical interventions, despite the fact that pharmaceutical strategies can target specific organisms.

Abstract

Pulmonary tuberculosis, often called TB, is a bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Indonesia is one of eight countries that accounts for 2/3 of TB cases worldwide. This disease usually affects the lungs, but can also attack other organs in the body. TB symptoms can vary depending on the type of infection and the organs affected. During the COVID-19 pandemic, attention to other diseases, such as TB has decreased. The increasing risk of spreading TB after COVID-19 is a public health concern. Restrictions on social movement implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic may result in an increased risk of TB transmission among close contacts of TB sufferers. People who have had COVID-19, especially those who have had lung damage due to COVID-19 infection, may have a higher risk of developing TB due to a weakened immune system. This Community Service is carried out to increase public awareness of the dangers of TB that continue to lurk after COVID-19 and it is hoped that through this outreach and education, the public will become more aware of the symptoms of TB so they can check themselves at Primary Health Care.

Abstract

Infestation with intestinal worms is a disease caused by parasitic worms, transmitted through the eggs present in the feces of infected individuals and contaminating the soil in environments with poor sanitation. It is estimated that around 1.5 billion people, or approximately 24% of the world's population, are affected by this disease. In Indonesia alone, there were 73,108,392 preschool and school-age children requiring preventive treatment for worm infestations in 2021. Worm infections are often overlooked due to the indirect nature of their effects, even though they can lead to long-term consequences, especially for young children, predominantly those in preschool and school-age. Preventive treatment measures implemented in Indonesia involve administering large-scale anthelmintic drugs to at-risk populations, which can reduce the number of worms infecting individuals. This intervention has the potential to decrease the morbidity associated with severe worm infestations. Furthermore, preventive measures to lower the prevalence of worm infections include educational campaigns on preventing worm infestations. With adequate knowledge of prevention methods, then communities can take steps to prevent the spread of these worm infections.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has become one of the most significant events in history, impacting the global health system, as reported by the World Health Statistics by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2020. While its focus is on COVID-19, the pandemic has underscored the importance of respiratory health in everyday life. Throughout the pandemic, communities worldwide have learned more about the significance of maintaining a healthy respiratory system. However, with the end of the acute phase of the pandemic, attention to other acute respiratory infections (ARI) may have decreased. Diseases such as tuberculosis, influenza, pneumonia, bronchitis, and others remain serious threats to public health. Therefore, this Community Service (PKM) aims to provide comprehensive education to the public, reminding them of the importance of maintaining respiratory health, recognizing ARI symptoms, and implementing appropriate preventive measures. This community service activity is expected to provide a deeper understanding of ARI and explain how simple actions can help prevent ARI, enhancing knowledge and awareness of respiratory infections.
