Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) have become a burden on the health system in Indonesia in recent years. The increasing prevalence of diseases such as heart disease, diabetes mellitus, and cancer has an impact on national health financing, and people's quality of life. This study is a literature review that aims to evaluate the relationship between NCD risk factors, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on early detection of chronic diseases, and the role of primary health facilities and family approaches in controlling NCDs. Methods Secondary data were obtained from various scientific journals and official reports through systematic searches in Clinical Key, Google Scholar, and PubMed. Discussion The review showed that risk factors such as body mass index (BMI), unhealthy diet, low physical activity, and family history significantly contributed to the increase in NCD cases. The COVID-19 pandemic has also caused serious disruptions to preventive health services, including decreased access to early detection of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Programs such as Posbindu PTM and PIS-PK conducted by Puskesmas have an important role in promotive and preventive efforts, although they are still faced with various obstacles. The family approach in implementing healthy living behaviors and early detection has proven crucial in supporting the success of NCD control. Conclusion: The integration of the family approach in the national NCD control strategy needs to be strengthened to improve the effectiveness of interventions and the quality of life of the community.

Abstract

Iron deficiency anemia remains a significant public health problem among adolescents in Indonesia, with evidence suggesting a persistent and increasing prevalence. Adolescent girls are particularly vulnerable due to increased iron requirements during rapid growth and menstrual blood loss, which may negatively affect cognitive performance, physical capacity, and future reproductive health. School-based interventions are therefore essential to strengthen early detection and prevention efforts. This community-based program aimed to promote adolescent health through hemoglobin (Hb) screening, nutritional status assessment, education on anemia and balanced nutrition, and the provision and monitoring of iron–folic acid supplementation. The activity was conducted in October 2025 at SMA Negeri 1 Imogiri, Bantul, involving 146 eleventh-grade students. A pre–post educational intervention design was applied. Data collection included Hb measurement using a portable Hb meter, anthropometric assessment (weight, height, body mass index, and arm circumfence), and a structured knowledge questionnaire. Knowledge levels increased from 62% before the intervention to 98% after the educational session, with a participant satisfaction rate of 97%. Several students were identified with low Hb levels and received follow-up support. This integrated, school-based approach demonstrates potential to improve health literacy and strengthen anemia prevention among adolescents.
