Abstract

This PKM Activity aims to determine the level of knowledge of adolescents about thalassemia, sexually transmitted diseases, and reproductive health. The method used in this PKM is material presentation/ counseling and direct interviews using a questionnaire linked to the Google Form application. The results of this PKM activity were obtained as follows; The source of information that plays a dominant role in conveying sexually transmitted infections-HIV/AIDs is the internet, namely 57(53.4%). As many as 76(70.4%) students did not know about thalassemia. Surveys on sexually transmitted diseases/AIDs show that the average junior high school teenager has sufficient knowledge, namely above 50%. Surveys on reproductive health knowledge show that the average junior high school teenager has good knowledge about the physical changes that occur during puberty, including; 1) an Increase in muscle mass (30%), 2) a change in voice (71.8%), 3) hair growth on the face and pubic area (95%), 4) increased sex drive (33.6%). 5) enlarged breasts (17.3%), 6) menstruation started (40.9%). A survey limited to female respondents showed that the level of knowledge about the female reproductive cycle related to the fertile period in junior high school teenagers was around 24 (43.3%) respondents, but 30 (50%) respondents did not know this. The level of knowledge about the fertile period and the possibility of pregnancy occurring in that period are: 1) the response of not knowing was 26 (43.3%), people, 2) immediately after menstruation ended 14 (23.3%), 3) in the middle between two menstruations as many as 14 (23.3%). From the results obtained, it can be concluded that the level of knowledge of junior high school adolescents regarding thalassemia is still very poor, while for sexually transmitted infections and reproductive health, it is at an average level. It is hoped that after participating in PKM, teenagers will have a better level of knowledge than before.

Abstract

Sudden cardiac arrest is one pf the leading causes of death that can be prevented through proper initial treatment. this study aims to improve the understanding and skills of the community, especially church officers, in providing Basic Life Support (BLS) through training held on September 14, 2024 at the Hall of the Maria Bunda Karmel Church, West Jakarta. This activity was attended by 70 participants and included materials on cardiac arrest, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and handling other emergency cases. The methods used included pre-test and post test to evaluate the increase in participants knowledge. The results showed that after the training, there was a significant increase in knowledge regarding signs of cardiac arrest and first aid procedures, with 100% of respondents being able to identify and provide appropriate assistance. The conclusion of this study emphasizes the importance of regular BLS training to improve community preparedness in dealing with emergency situations, which in turn can reduce morbidity and mortality due to cardiac arrest.

Abstract

The life course approach emphasizes the importance of maintaining health form adolescence to elderly, including sexual and reproductive health, non-communicable diseases, and mental health. Promotive and preventive efforts in the form of health education are still needed as one of the most realistic steps to help optimize women's health status. This community service activity was carried out on November3, 2024 to 68 Catholic women from various age groups who are members of the Indonesian Catholic Women's Association. The activities carried out were in the form of health education with the topic " Becoming a Healthy woman form Age to Age" and collecting questionnaire data. The results showed that after participating in this activity, the level of awareness improved regarding the importance of implementing a healthy lifestyle and routine health checks as a promotive and preventive effort to prevent disease in adult to elderly women. The conclusion of this activity is that health education needs to be carried out continuously to avoid misinformation in effort's to maintain women's health so that women's health status can reach optimal levels in various age groups.

Abstract

An effective way of learning about thalassemia, a complex public health issue with multiple perspectives, is through participating in research. This study used an inductive approach to presume the influencing factors of students' consent to participate in thalassemia research voluntarily. Nested in the preliminary stage of a research series on thalassemia, this study used a consecutive sampling to recruit 140 medical undergraduates. Their knowledge, experience, and attitude to thalassemia and the perception of self-quality life were assessed using self-administered questionnaires. Blood samples were drawn for carrier screening. Students' GPAs were collected from faculty records. Of 140 participants, only 123 had at least heard of thalassemia, and their data was used in the analysis. Most participants had fairly good but incomplete knowledge of inheritance patterns, antenatal screening, and thalassemia management. Premarital screening was known and received the most positive attitudes from participants. Inductively, academic performance and carrier status curiosity were presumed to influence students' consent to participate. With the limitation of an inductive approach, further study with a specific design is needed to closely investigate student perspectives on research and their drives to get involved.

Abstract

Cervical cancer remains a major global health concern, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where barriers such as limited healthcare access, cultural stigma, and logistical challenges hinder routine screening. Human papillomavirus (HPV) self-sampling has emerged as a promising alternative to clinician-collected sampling, offering the potential to improve screening coverage and reduce the burden of cervical cancer. This scoping review aims to synthesize current evidence on the feasibility, effectiveness, and acceptability of HPV self-sampling, with a focus on its impact on screening uptake, psychological outcomes, and diagnostic accuracy. Following the PRISMA-ScR guidelines, a systematic search was conducted across PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus, resulting in the inclusion of five studies: four randomized controlled trials and one umbrella review. Findings indicate that self-sampling reduces anxiety associated with cervical screening, improves participation among underserved populations, and demonstrates high diagnostic concordance with clinician-collected samples. Behavioral interventions, such as pay-it-forward models, show potential to enhance sample return and feedback rates. However, challenges remain regarding effective triage strategies for HPV-positive cases, especially in resource-limited settings. The review supports the integration of self-sampling into national screening programs, emphasizing the need for culturally tailored approaches and continued research on cost-effective triage methods.

Abstract

Adolescence is a crucial phase in individual growth and development, especially for young women, who experience significant physical and hormonal changes. These changes impact reproductive health, including the regularity of the menstrual cycle. Menstrual cycle irregularities can be an early manifestation of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), one of the most common endocrine disorders in women of reproductive age. Hyperandrogenism, ovulatory disorders, and polycystic ovarian morphology characterize PCOS. Its prevalence in adolescents ranges from 6–10% and tends to increase with lifestyle changes such as a high-calorie diet, lack of physical activity, and psychological stress. Pathophysiologically, PCOS involves complex interactions among genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors that disrupt the balance of hormones LH, FSH, and AMH and cause insulin resistance. This condition triggers hyperandrogenism, inhibits follicular maturation, and leads to chronic anovulation. The diagnosis of PCOS in adolescents requires caution based on the Rotterdam Consensus (2003) and the 2018 International Guidelines, taking into account similarities to the physiological symptoms of puberty. PCOS is strongly linked to obesity, metabolic syndrome, and family history, with insulin resistance playing a significant role in its development. Elevated Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) levels indicate the severity of PCOS and are associated with metabolic disorders. Therefore, a preventive, holistic approach that promotes a healthy lifestyle is essential for adolescents, including education on balanced nutrition, increased physical activity, and stress management. These measures are expected to decrease the occurrence of PCOS and long-term complications such as infertility and metabolic syndrome in young women in Indonesia.
