Abstract

Caulerpa racemosa (anggur laut) merupakan rumput laut dengan potensi manfaat kesehatan yang masih belum banyak dikenal. Masyarakat pesisir rentan terhadap penyakit kulit akibat paparan sinar matahari serta penyakit metabolik akibat rendahnya asupan gizi. Edukasi mengenai manfaat anggur laut berpotensi menjadi upaya promotif dan preventif yang relevan. Kurangnya pengetahuan Masyarakat mengenai zat aktif anggur laut yang menyebabkan anggur laut hanya dimanfaatkan sebagai komoditas, bukan sebagai sumber pangan fungsional. Kegiatan pengabdian dilaksanakan melalui penyuluhan dan Focus Group Discussion (FGD) kepada masyarakat di Pantai Ekas. Penyuluhan berlangsung selama satu hari dan diikuti oleh 15 peserta. Kegiatan diawali dengan tanya jawab untuk menggali pengetahuan awal, dilanjutkan dengan penyampaian materi dan evaluasi pemahaman individu. Kegiatan ini menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan masyarakat tentang potensi anggur laut dalam pencegahan penyakit yang umum di wilayah pesisir.

Abstract

Low Back Pain (LBP) is a prevalent musculoskeletal problem worldwide, particularly among the elderly population. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the level of knowledge among elderly individuals in Karang Taliwang Village and the incidence of LBP. A quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design was employed, using an ordinal scale to measure knowledge levels and a nominal scale for LBP incidence. The results indicate a significant relationship between knowledge levels and LBP incidence, where elderly individuals with lower knowledge levels tend to experience LBP more frequently. This study concludes that enhancing education on LBP risk factors and prevention is essential for reducing its prevalence among the elderly. The scientific implication of this study highlights the need for evidence-based educational interventions to lower LBP prevalence and improve the quality of life among older adults.

Abstract

Low Back Pain (LBP) is a musculoskeletal problem that is often experienced by the elderly and can reduce the quality of life. Knowledge of LBP risk factors plays an important role in efforts to prevent and treat it. This study aims to determine the relationship between the level of elderly knowledge about LBP risk factors and the incidence of LBP at the Mandalika Elderly Social Service Center, West Nusa Tenggara in 2025. This quantitative study used a cross-sectional design on 41 elderly people selected through total sampling. Data was collected using a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability, then analyzed univariately and bivariously with Chi-square test. The results showed that most of the respondents had sufficient knowledge (46.3%), followed by low (34.1%) and good (19.5%) knowledge. The incidence of LBP was found in 26 respondents (63.4%), while 15 respondents (36.6%) did not experience LBP. The Chi-square test showed a significant relationship between the level of knowledge of the elderly and the incidence of LBP (p-value = 0.002). It was concluded that low knowledge was related to the high incidence of LBP. Continuous health education is needed to increase the understanding of the elderly in preventing LBP.
