Abstract

Prostate cancer is globally the second most common malignancy and the sixth leading cause of cancer-related death in men. The growing elderly population in Banjarbaru City, South Kalimantan, further elevates the risk of prostate cancer incidence in the region. Therefore, this community service initiative aimed to improve the knowledge and skills of healthcare professionals serving the elderly within the working area of the Banjarbaru City Health Office in early detection and prevention of prostate cancer. The activity was conducted as a comprehensive training involving 20 healthcare professionals, encompassing both theoretical and practical sessions. Training outcomes revealed a significant increase in participants' knowledge, evidenced by an average pre-test score of 55.91 which rose to an average post-test score of 84.35. Additionally, there was a noticeable improvement in healthcare professionals' skills in performing early detection and preventive measures for prostate cancer. Overall, this training successfully enhanced the capacity of healthcare professionals in Banjarbaru City in the early management of prostate cancer.

Abstract

Abstract: Hypertension remains a prevalent global health issue. Many international health organizations recommend physical activity, such as walking, as an intervention for hypertension. This study aimed to examine the relationship between daily step count and blood pressure. The research employed an analytical observational method with a cross-sectional design. Daily step count data were collected using smartphones, and blood pressure measurements were taken using a digital sphygmomanometer. This study population consisted of all students in the PSKPS FKIK ULM class of 2023, with purposive sampling selecting 22 participants. Pearson correlation tests revealed no significant relationship between the average daily step count and systolic blood pressure (p = 0.446) or diastolic blood pressure (p = 0.239). The study concludes that the average daily step count of 2786±997 is not associated with either systolic or diastolic blood pressure among PSKPS FKIK ULM class of 2023 students. Abstrak: Hipertensi merupakan masalah kesehatan yang masih banyak diderita di seluruh dunia.
