Abstract

Indonesia has entered an aging population structure where the percentage of the elderly population has reached more than 10% since 2021. According to WHO data, the elderly population in Indonesia was 9.92% in 2020 and will increase to 20% in 2045. One of the health problems faced by the elderly is muscle weakness. Community service activities are carried out to prevent this disorder from becoming more progressive. These activities, which aim to train several physical exercise movements for gross motor activities, have significantly improved muscle strength, balance, and overall physical health in older people. Education is delivered through video screenings, live demonstrations, and socialization through banner media. The physical exercises taught can be done individually or in groups through games. This PKM activity was attended by 61 residents of nursing homes, most of whom were in the 71-80 year age group (39.34%) and over 80 years (39.34%), with an average age of 77.98 years. All participants agreed that the PKM activities held were interesting and valuable. Most elderly are interested in participating in other physical exercise activities in the future (97.87%). And after participating in this educational activity, 70.21% of older people became more motivated to do it routinely. The type of gross motor activity physical exercise preferred by older people is individual physical exercise, namely, tiptoe exercises (72.34%), raising and lowering the ball (68.09%), and bending the legs backward (65.96%).

Abstract

Obesity and excessive body fat accumulation are major risk factors for various metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. Measuring subcutaneous fat thickness using a fat caliper is a simple, effective, and cost-effective method to assess body fat percentage in the productive age population. This community service activity was carried out in Grogol Village, West Jakarta, involving 67 productive age participants. Measurements were taken at four main body points, namely biceps, triceps, suprailiac, and subscapular, by a trained team from the Faculty of Medicine, Tarumanagara University. The screening results showed that in the fat caliper examination, the percentage of participants with high to very high categories in the biceps, triceps, suprailiac, and subscapular areas were 43.28%, 31.35%, 35.82%, and 8.95%, respectively, indicating a potential risk of excess body fat. Education on obesity prevention through healthy diet and increased physical activity was provided to the participants. This activity emphasizes the importance of early screening using fat calipers and health education as promotive and preventive measures to prevent obesity complications and improve the quality of life of the community.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the main causes of death rates in Indonesia. This condition is characterized by systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and diastolic ≥90 mmHg. According to WHO, recommended conventional drug therapy includes diuretics, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB), angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI), and long-acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers. A number of studies have shown that several natural ingredients commonly consumed daily have potential as antihypertensives. These natural ingredients include garlic (Allium sativum), celery (Apium graveolens), and cucumber (Cucumis sativus). Based on the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey, the proportion of utilization of traditional health efforts in Indonesia was 32,5% and the proportion of utilization of family medicine gardens (TOGA) was 10%. This study aims to evaluate the pattern of use of natural antihypertensive ingredients in hypertensive patients seeking treatment at the Pancasan Community Health Center in December 2024. The research method was cross-sectional descriptive observation with a total of 110 hypertensive patients as respondents. Data was collected through interviews and filling out questionnaires and presented descriptively. The characteristics of the majority of respondents are women with an age range of 41-50 years and the duration of suffering from hypertension is classified as long term. The research results showed that as many as 106 out of 110 patients consumed natural antihypertensive ingredients. The most widely used natural ingredient is cucumber, namely 36.40%, with the most common method of use being direct consumption.
