Abstract

Classified as dangerous and emergency in the world. This disease is a serious concern in Indonesia, with the second highest number of cases in the world. In this study, we aim to look at efforts to prevent pulmonary TB transmission in families through backing family. Research method based on the concept of observational analytical research with cross-sectional study techniques to describe and examine what factors are related to the incidence of TB transmission in families or households. Result. The results of the analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between the incident and preventive measures, with a p value of 0.046. Based on the results of the analysis, those who were highly knowledgeable (10%), had a 75% risk of developing pulmonary tuberculosis. The results of this study show that family members who lack knowledge about the prevention of pulmonary tuberculosis and who are at risk of pulmonary TB transmission have a high risk of transmission. The implementation of the pulmonary TB transmission prevention program needs to be maximized by the local authorities comprehensively so that the reduction in pulmonary TB can be achieved quickly.

Abstract

Stunting remains a chronic nutritional problem that requires the active involvement of health cadres as the frontline workers in Integrated Health Posts (Posyandu). This community service program aimed to improve the knowledge, motivation, and skills of health cadres in preventing stunting in Kampung Jawa Village, Solok City. The participants were 47 health cadres who attended a training session on July 30, 2025, at PAUD Kasih Mama. The implementation methods included preparation, educational sessions using lectures and discussions, practical training on measuring body weight and height, recording data in the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) handbook, and monitoring and evaluation through a knowledge test. The results showed that 81.0% of cadres had good knowledge, while 19.0% had low knowledge. All cadres (100%) were able to perform anthropometric measurements, record data in the MCH handbook, and provide education to mothers of toddlers at Posyandu. In conclusion, cadre empowerment effectively improved the capacity of health cadres in stunting prevention and should be implemented continuously to support the acceleration of stunting reduction in Solok City.
