Abstract

Background: Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by the bacteria Leptospira sp. The incidence of Leptospirosis ranges from 0.1 to 10 per 100,000 per year globally. GIS is a tool to visualize data that considers effectiveness and efficiency when determining the priority areas of particular disease control. Method: This systematic review was based on some databases, Google Scholar, PubMed, and the BASE, for articles published from 2010 to 2020. PRISMA guideline was used during data screening. Results: Eight articles were reviewed that showed a pattern of distribution of cases of Leptospirosis: clustered, evenly, and randomly. We also found 15 environmental factors that influence Leptospirosis distribution:  the existence of the river, precipitation, sunshine, a history of the flood, the existence of the gutter, the condition of the garbage disposal, the existence of rice fields, the presence of vegetation, trap success, the existence of the road, the ownership of the pet, the presence of rats, altitudes, and land-use. Conclusion: 15 identified environmental risk factors influence the incidence of Leptospirosis, namely the existence of rivers, history of flooding, the existence of gutters, waste disposal conditions, rainfall, the existence of rice fields, population density, the existence of vegetation, the success of traps, the existence of ponds, the existence of roads, livestock ownership, presence of rats, altitude, and land use.

Abstract

Hipertensi merupakan salah satu penyakit tidak menular yang memiliki prevalensi tinggi dan menjadi penyebab utama komplikasi kardiovaskular. Rendahnya kesadaran masyarakat terhadap pentingnya pemeriksaan tekanan darah secara rutin serta kurangnya pengetahuan tentang faktor risiko hipertensi menjadi tantangan utama dalam upaya pencegahan penyakit ini. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kesadaran masyarakat mengenai hipertensi melalui edukasi dan pemeriksaan tekanan darah di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Pekauman. Metode yang digunakan dalam kegiatan ini meliputi pre-test, edukasi mengenai hipertensi, diskusi interaktif, serta post-test untuk mengevaluasi peningkatan pemahaman peserta. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan signifikan dalam pemahaman masyarakat tentang hipertensi, faktor risikonya, serta langkah-langkah pencegahannya. Oleh karena itu, edukasi kesehatan perlu terus dilakukan secara berkelanjutan guna menekan angka kejadian hipertensi di masyarakat.
