Abstract

This study was conducted in Bulo Village, Bungin Sub-district, Enrekang Regency, in January 2024, to evaluate the prevalence of hypertension, hyperuricemia, hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, and hypercholesterolemia among women of reproductive age. A total of 50 women aged 15-49 years participated in this study. The age distribution of the respondents showed that the majority were in the 40-44 age range (26%), followed by the 35-39 age range (20%) and the 45-49 age range (20%). The results showed that 10 women (20%) had hypertension (blood pressure ≥ 140/90 mmHg), 18 women (36%) had hyperuricemia (serum uric acid levels ≥ 6 mg/dL), and 20 women (40%) had hypercholesterolemia (total cholesterol levels ≥ 200 mg/dL). No cases of hyperglycemia (blood glucose levels ≥ 200 mg/dL) or hypoglycemia (blood glucose levels < 70 mg/dL) were found in the sample studied. Hypercholesterolemia was the most common condition, followed by hyperuricemia and hypertension. These findings indicate the need for more intensive health interventions in the community. Education on healthy eating habits, physical activity, and regular health check-ups are essential to manage and prevent further complications from these conditions. This study provides valuable insights into the health status of women of reproductive age in Bulo Village and underscores the importance of appropriate preventive measures.

Abstract

Cesarean section (sectio caesarea) is a surgical procedure that penetrates a mother's abdomen to deliver one or more babies, commonly referred to as laparotomy and hysterotomy. Therefore, cesarean delivery is also known as artificial childbirth. According to data from the Medical Records of Bhayangkara Hospital Makassar, the number of cesarean section deliveries in 2021 was 314 (93.1%) for inpatient care and 23 (6.8%) for outpatient care. In 2022, there were 201 (25.5%) inpatient cases and 586 (74.4%) outpatient cases. The objective of this study is to examine the implementation of incision area care and evaluate its effectiveness in addressing the risk of infection at Bhayangkara Hospital Makassar. Before the intervention, the assessment of Mrs. D, a 28-year-old patient in the Nuri Ward of Bhayangkara Hospital Makassar, showed increased pain with a severity scale of 7 (severe) and redness around the incision area. However, after three consecutive days of incision area care intervention, the results showed a reduction in pain to a scale of 2 (mild), and the redness around the incision area also decreased.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the non-communicable diseases that remains a major public health problem because it can lead to serious complications such as heart disease and stroke. Low public awareness and limited knowledge about risk factors and prevention of hypertension causes many cases to remain undetected at an early stage. This community service activity aims to improve community knowledge and awareness in controlling hypertension through community-based health education and blood pressure screening. The method used consisted of preparation, implementation, and evaluation stages. The activity involved 30 participants who had a history of hypertension. The intervention included health education about hypertension, blood pressure examinations, and health consultations for participants with high blood pressure. The results showed an increase in community knowledge after health education, where the proportion of participants with good knowledge increased from 20% to 70%. In addition, participants showed greater awareness of regularly checking their blood pressure and adopting healthier lifestyles. This activity indicates that community-based health education and screening are effective strategies to increase public awareness in hypertension control.

Abstract

Introduction: Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is one of the critical conditions that requires quick and appropriate treatment to prevent further damage to brain tissue. One non-invasive approach that can be applied is a head elevation of 30°, which is believed to increase cerebral tissue perfusion and reduce intracranial pressure. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of monitoring and the application of 30° head elevation in improving cerebral perfusion in patients with captive trauma. Research Methodology: This study uses an observational design with a pre-post test approach. The study subjects were patients with capitis trauma who performed a 30° head elevation action. Parameters observed before and after the intervention included the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), blood pressure, body temperature, pulse, pain, frequency of vomiting, nausea intensity, and dizziness level. Result: After applying a head elevation of 30°, the patient's GCS remained stable at a value of 15 (Coma Scale). Body temperature decreased from 38.6°C to 36.8°C, and pulse rate from 118x/min to 80x/min. The pain scale decreased from 8 to 3, vomiting from 5x/day to 1x/day, nausea from a score of 5 to 1, and dizziness from a score of 4 to 1. Blood pressure did not change significantly (140/90 mmHg). Conclusion: The application and monitoring of 30° head elevation are effective in increasing the perfusion of cerebral tissue and lowering clinical symptoms related to capitis trauma. This intervention can be used as the first step in the nursing management of TBI patients
