Abstract

Hypertension, often thought of as a condition that only affects adults, is now increasingly recognised as a significant health problem among teenagers. Hypertension is a major risk factor for morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease and is a public health problem throughout the world. The number of hypertension sufferers continues to increase every year; it is estimated that by 2025 there will be 1.5 billion people affected by hypertension, and it is estimated that every year 9.4 million people will die from hypertension and its complications. The goal of this community service activity, which emphasizes education and screening for high blood pressure, is to raise public awareness of the importance of maintaining normal blood pressure and detecting and preventing hypertension early. Through this community service activity, it is hoped that greater awareness will be created regarding the importance of maintaining normal blood pressure and preventing hypertension. Implementing lifestyle modifications can help to prevent hypertension and its complications, ultimately improving health outcomes and overall quality of life.

Abstract

Hyperuricemia is a condition characterized by elevated uric acid levels in the blood, which can increase the risk of chronic kidney failure due to the deposition of uric acid crystals in renal tissue. Education and screening for uric acid levels are crucial for the early detection and prevention of hyperuricemia, particularly in the adult population. This community service program utilized the Plan–Do–Check–Act (PDCA) approach, encompassing counseling on risk factors of hyperuricemia, uric acid level screening with Point Of Care Testing (POCT), and education on strategies to prevent chronic kidney disease. The activity involved 40 participants of productive age, with an average age of 43.97 years. The mean uric acid level was recorded at 5.74 mg/dL. Educational interventions successfully increased participants’ awareness of the importance of maintaining uric acid levels within normal limits. Routine screening enables early identification of at-risk individuals and facilitates timely implementation of preventive measures. This program highlights the importance of public education and early detection in reducing the risk of chronic kidney disease and underscores the role of preventive health efforts in improving overall quality of life.
