Abstract

Metabolic syndrome is health condition that include hypertension, hyperglycemia, central obesity, and dyslipidemia, which significantly increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Blood pressure is one of the main components of metabolic syndrome, where elevated blood pressure serves as an early indicator of serious risk for complications. Routine blood pressure screening in the adult population plays a critical role in the early detection of hypertension and in preventing the progression of metabolic syndrome. This activity aims to raise awareness and understanding among adults about the risks of hypertension and the importance of blood pressure control through routine screening and education on healthy lifestyles. The results show that periodic blood pressure screening is effective in identifying individuals with early-stage hypertension, enabling timely preventive interventions. The education provided successfully enhanced participants' understanding of healthy lifestyles as a preventive measure against hypertension and metabolic syndrome. The conclusion of this activity underscores that blood pressure screening in the adult population is a strategic measure to reduce the risk of complications from metabolic syndrome and hypertension.

Abstract

Cholesterol is a type of fat naturally found in the body and plays a vital role in biological functions such as cell membrane formation and hormone production. However, elevated cholesterol levels can lead to plaque buildup in arterial walls, which is a major risk factor for peripheral artery disease. This condition is characterized by the narrowing of arteries that impedes blood flow, particularly to the extremities. A cholesterol screening program is conducted to detect elevated cholesterol levels early and to provide education about healthy lifestyle habits to adults. This program employs the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) approach, which includes planning, implementing education and screenings, evaluating effectiveness, and taking follow-up actions based on the results. The total cholesterol screenings revealed an average level of 181.81 with a standard deviation (SD) of 34.18. While this average is within the normal range, it approaches the upper limit, warranting caution to prevent further increases that could affect cardiovascular health in the future. Regular cholesterol screening can help minimize the risk of peripheral artery disease, thereby maintaining the quality of life for adults.
