Abstract

Penyakit jantung koroner (PJK) masih menjadi penyebab utama kematian dan beban kesehatan di Indonesia. Faktor risiko PJK akan meningkat seiring dengan bertambahnya usia, sehingga lansia merupakan populasi yang rentan terhadap PJK. Peningkatan pengetahuan dalam mengenali dan mencegah PJK diperlukan untuk meningkatkan kualitas hidup dan produktivitas pada lansia. Kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PkM) ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan mengenai PJK dengan memberikan edukasi pada lansia dalam cakupan Posyandu lansia di Desa Purwosari, Kecamatan Baturraden, Kabupaten Banyumas. Pretest dan Posttest dilakukan untuk menilai peningkatan pengetahuan pada peserta. Kegiatan dilakukan di Balai Desa Purwosari oleh dosen Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Jenderal Soedirman dengan melibatkan kader Posyandu Lansia. Sebanyak 47 lansia mengikuti kegiatan penyuluhan. Hasil evaluasi menggunakan uji t berpasangan menunjukkan peningkatan rerata nilai posttest peserta secara signifikan dibandingkan dengan nilai pretest (p = 0,008). Oleh karena itu, dapat disimpulkan bahwa kegiatan PkM berupa penyuluhan kesehatan meningkatkan pengetahuan peserta dalam mengenali dan mencegah PJK pada lansia.

Abstract

Background: Exposure to formaldehyde from a preserved cadaver can cause several health problems in students, lecturers, and laboratory technicians working in medical anatomy laboratories. These conditions include respiratory tract irritation and cancer due to acute and chronic exposure, respectively. Lowering the frequency of contact with formaldehyde from preserved organs helps to ensure the safety of students, lecturers, and laboratory technicians. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effectiveness of low concentration formalin as a preservative solution for goat kidneys. The organ was selected due to its anatomical structure similarity to humans.Method: Goat kidneys with 50-60 ml of volume were collected, washed, immersed in preservative solution, and stored for two months. The samples were then divided into four groups, which were preserved with different formalin concentrations, namely 30%, 20%, 10%, and 5%. The preservation parameters, namely organ structure and integrity, color, springiness, odor, and mold growth were qualitatively described, while the kidney volume was quantitatively measured.Results: After the samples were preserved for two months, they were observed, and all groups showed similar characteristics. The kidneys preserved with 5% or 10% formalin showed equal volume before and after two months of preservation.Conclusion: Low concentration formalin has the same effectiveness in preserving goat kidneys as the high concentration. It also has the potential to be applied in human anatomy learning.
