Abstract

Background: Stunting is a chronic nutritional issue in children that remains a primary focus for the government to prevent and reduce its prevalence. Various efforts have been made in collaboration with various parties to improve the nutritional status of children aged 0-2 years, pregnant women, and before pregnancy (adolescent girls). The proper food composition for teenagers should adhere to the 'Fill my plate' principle with a composition of 1/3 staple food, 1/3 vegetables, 1/6 fruit, and the remaining 1/6 containing animal and vegetable protein. Good knowledge about balanced nutrition consumption in adolescent girls is essential to support the prevention of stunting in children in the future.Purpose: To identify the relationship between knowledge about stunting prevention and the consumption of balanced nutritious food in adolescent girls.Method: This research is an observational analytical quantitative study with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study consisted of 95 female first-semester students at the Faculty of Nursing, Muhammadiyah University, Jakarta. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling with criteria being young female respondents aged 16-20 without chronic illnesses. The number of samples was 86. Data analysis used the chi-square statistical test to determine the relationship between knowledge about stunting prevention and the consumption of balanced nutritious food in young women.Results: The average age of respondents was 18 years, the average score for knowledge about stunting prevention was 26.6, the majority of teenagers had a very good knowledge category, with 65 people (75.5%), and the majority of teenagers consumed balanced nutrition, 48 people (55.8%). The results of the statistical test obtained a p-value of 0.26 (>0.05), which means there is no relationship between teenagers' knowledge about stunting and the consumption of balanced nutrition.Conclusion: It is hoped that healthcare professionals, especially nurses, can be involved and provide education and other interventions in preventing stunting by supporting young women to consume balanced nutrition.

Abstract

ABSTRAK Diabetes melitus merupakan penyakit tidak menular dengan prevalensi terus meningkat dan berisiko menimbulkan komplikasi kronis, salah satunya kaki diabetes. Upaya pencegahan di tingkat komunitas belum optimal karena keterbatasan pengetahuan dan keterampilan kader kesehatan. Kegiatan ini bertujuan meningkatkan kapasitas kader dalam deteksi dini dan pencegahan kaki diabetes melalui pelatihan berbasis komunitas. Pelatihan dilaksanakan pada 28 kader di Kelurahan Cempaka Baru, Jakarta Pusat, melalui edukasi, demonstrasi pemeriksaan kaki, praktik perawatan, serta evaluasi pre–post test. Setelah pelatihan, kader mampu melakukan pemeriksaan kaki sederhana dan memberikan edukasi pencegahan. Rata-rata skor pengetahuan meningkat dari 70,00 ± 8,01 menjadi 90,54 ± 5,07, dengan selisih 20,54 poin (p 0,001). Temuan ini menunjukkan pelatihan berbasis komunitas efektif meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan kader. Integrasi kegiatan serupa ke dalam Posyandu Lansia dan Posbindu PTM perlu dilakukan secara berkelanjutan. Kata Kunci: Diabetes Melitus, Kaki Diabetes, Kader Kesehatan, Deteksi Dini, Pelatihan Berbasis Komunitas.  ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus is a non-communicable disease with increasing prevalence and a high risk of chronic complications, including diabetic foot. Community-based prevention remains suboptimal due to limited knowledge and skills among health volunteers. This program aimed to improve their capacity in early detection and prevention of diabetic foot through community-based training. Conducted among 28 volunteers in Cempaka Baru, Central Jakarta, the training included education, foot examination demonstrations, foot-care practice, and pre–post test evaluation. After the training, participants were able to perform basic foot examinations and provide preventive education. The mean knowledge score increased from 70.00 ± 8.01 to 90.54 ± 5.07, with a mean difference of 20.54 points (p 0.001). These findings indicate that community-based training effectively improved knowledge and skills of health volunteers. Similar activities should be sustainably integrated into routine community health services. Keywords: Diabetes Mellitus, Diabetic Foot, Community Health Volunteers, Early Detection, Community-Based Training.
