Abstract

Dental caries remains one of the most prevalent oral health problems among school-aged children. Limited knowledge regarding oral and dental hygiene is one of the factors contributing to an increased risk of dental caries. Health education using video-based media offers an alternative and engaging approach to health promotion, as it combines visual and auditory elements that can facilitate children’s understanding of the educational material. This community service activity aimed to improve students’ knowledge of dental caries prevention through video-based oral and dental hygiene education at SD Inpres Namosain, Kupang City. The activity was conducted in several stages, including coordination with the school, administration of a pretest, delivery of educational materials using video media, interactive discussions, and evaluation through a posttest. A total of 58 students participated in the activity. Participants’ knowledge levels were assessed using a questionnaire administered before and after the educational intervention. The results demonstrated an improvement in participants’ knowledge following the intervention. Prior to the intervention, the majority of students had a low level of knowledge, comprising 42 students (72.4%). Following the educational intervention, most students demonstrated a moderate level of knowledge, accounting for 34 students (58.6%), while the proportion of students with a good level of knowledge increased to 20 students (34.5%). The mean knowledge score increased from 9.76 before the intervention to 13.71 after the intervention. The evaluation results indicated that this improvement was statistically significant (p = 0.000), suggesting that video-based media can be effectively utilized as an educational tool for promoting oral and dental health. This activity demonstrates that video-based education can enhance students’ understanding of proper oral and dental hygiene practices and dental caries prevention. Video media may therefore serve as an innovative and practical health education method that can be implemented sustainably through the School Health Unit (Usaha Kesehatan Sekolah/UKS) and health promotion programs conducted by community health centers (puskesmas).

Abstract

Handwashing with Soap (HWWS) is the most effective measure for preventing infectious diseases; however, the proportion of proper HWWS in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) is only 21.7%, well below the national figure of 51.1%. This study aimed to analyze the effect of animated video media and demonstration method on HWWS knowledge and practice among students of SDI Habihogor (elementary school), Sikka Regency. A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was employed, involving all 94 students from grades I-VI as the sample (total sampling). Data were collected using a 13-item HWWS knowledge questionnaire (score 0-13) and a 7-step WHO handwashing practice observation checklist (score 0-7). The intervention consisted of a 4-minute HWWS animated video combined with a live demonstration by the researcher. Bivariate analysis was conducted using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Results showed that the mean knowledge score increased significantly from 6.41 (pre-test) to 11.61 (post-test), and the mean practice score increased from 2.49 to 6.88. The Wilcoxon test yielded p=0.000 (<0.05) for both knowledge and practice. There was a significant effect of animated video media and demonstration method on HWWS knowledge and practice among SDI Habihogor (elementary school) students. The combination of both approaches effectively improved students' conceptual understanding and procedural skills.

Abstract

Personal hygiene during menstruation plays an important role in determining a person's health status in relation to reproductive health. During menstruation, the blood vessels in the uterus are easily infected because germs can enter more readily, which can lead to infections that may subsequently cause various disorders or diseases affecting the reproductive organs. This study aims to determine the factors related to personal hygiene behavior during menstruation among adolescent girls at Tobu State Junior High School. This type of research is analytic survey with a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 56 adolescent girls selected using the proportional stratified random sampling technique. Each variable in this study was tested using the chi-square test to determine the relationship between the dependent variable (personal hygiene behavior during menstruation) and the independent variables (knowledge, attitude, availability of supporting facilities, support from parents and peers). The results of this study showed that factors related to personal hygiene behavior during menstruation among adolescent girls were knowledge (p-value = 0.002), parental support (p-value = 0.002), and peer support (p-value = 0.004). Variables that had no relationship with personal hygiene behavior during menstruation among adolescent girls at Tobu State Junior High School were attitude (p-value = 0.932), and availability of supporting facilities (p-value = 0.557). Schools need to provide reproductive health material, especially related to personal hygiene during menstruation, so that adolescent girls can practice good personal hygiene behavior.

Abstract

Anemia in adolescent girls remains a public health problem that impacts health, cognitive development, and productivity. One effort to prevent anemia is through the distribution of iron supplements (IBT), but compliance with iron supplements among adolescent girls remains low. A factor suspected of being associated with iron supplement compliance is self-efficacy magnitude. and instrumental social support. This study aims to determine the relationship between self-efficacy magnitude and instrumental social support with adherence to iron supplement consumption in female adolescents at SMA Negeri 9 Kupang City. This study used an analytical observational quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach . The study population was all 122 female adolescents in grade X of SMA Negeri 9 Kupang City, with a sample of 54 respondents selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed univariately and bivariately using the Chi-Square test . The results showed that most respondents had self-efficacy in the confident category (53.7%), received supportive instrumental social support (51.9%), and were compliant in consuming iron supplement (63.0%). The results of the bivariate analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between self-efficacy and adherence to iron supplement consumption (p = 0.007), while instrumental social support did not have a significant relationship with adherence to iron supplement consumption (p = 0.723). It was concluded that self-efficacy was associated with adherence to iron supplement consumption, while instrumental social support was not associated with adherence to iron supplement consumption among female adolescents at SMA Negeri 9 Kupang City. Efforts are needed to increase self-efficacy through education and strengthening adolescents' confidence in consuming iron supplement regularly.
