Abstract

Muscle strength decline is a factor that affects functional performance and work capacity in productive age. Handgrip strength is a practical method to detect this decline quantitatively. This activity aims to identify muscle strength status through handgrip strength examination and provide education on preventing muscle function decline. The examination was conducted on productive age individuals using a digital handgrip measuring tool. Data were collected from 49 participants, consisting of 25 men and 24 women. Handgrip strength values ​​were recorded and categorized into normal or weak status. Furthermore, participants received education through visual posters explaining the relationship between lifestyle, muscle strength, and productivity. The average handgrip strength in men was 36 kg (SD 8.75) and in women it was 22.94 kg (SD 9). The proportion of participants with weak muscle strength reached 10.20% in men and 12.24% in women. This examination successfully identified risk groups that had not shown any clinical symptoms previously. Handgrip strength examination is effective as an early screening tool for the risk of muscle strength decline in productive age. Education based on examination results can increase awareness and encourage lifestyle changes towards long-term muscle function maintenance.

Abstract

The balance of water and oil levels in the skin is an important factor in maintaining healthy skin, especially in preventing damage due to external factors. In the productive age group, the risk of imbalance in water and oil levels in the skin increases along with environmental exposure and lifestyle. Community service activities are carried out through the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) approach which includes education about the risk of imbalance in water and oil levels in the skin, as well as routine screening using a skin analyzer. Education focuses on risk factors, prevention, and monitoring of skin conditions, accompanied by counseling on a healthy lifestyle to maintain water and oil levels in the skin. This activity was attended by 40 participants in the productive age group. The results of the examination showed an average water and oil content in the skin on both arms of the participants, with an average value of 56.78% and 25.5% on the right arm, and 53.41% and 23.97% on the left arm. Education succeeded in increasing participants' understanding of the importance of maintaining the balance of water and oil levels in the skin. Maintaining the balance of water and oil levels in the skin has been shown to be important in preventing skin damage. Optimal hydration and proper use of skincare products can minimize the risk of skin imbalance, especially in the productive age group that is vulnerable to environmental exposure.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the leading causes of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Excessive sodium intake is known to contribute to increased blood pressure through certain physiopathological mechanisms. The purpose of this activity is to evaluate the distribution of blood pressure and the role of education on sodium intake restriction in community screening activities. The activity was carried out at the Cengkareng Baptist Foundation School with the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) approach. Blood pressure examinations were carried out using an automatic digital tensiometer on 57 adult participants. Data were classified according to blood pressure category, and all participants received education on sodium intake restriction. The results showed that the average systolic and diastolic pressures were 132.4 mmHg and 87.64 mmHg, respectively. Most participants were categorized as pre-hypertension and hypertension. Education on sodium intake restriction is important in hypertension prevention strategies at the community level and needs to be integrated into early detection programs.
